I can not turn on my iPod touch 1st Gen at all.

I tried to plug it into my computer and charge it and it wont charge and itunes will not reconize it.  I have tried holding the home and power butten and the same time for 10 sec and releasing the power button and holding the home button for 5 sec to put it in DFS mode and it wouldn't come on.  I have no clue what to do now.  o and I have also held both buttons for about 5 1/2 min and nothing happen.

See if you misssed anything here:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I can't turn on my ipod touch 4th gen.  all it does is ask to be plugged in to the computer.  When I plug it in, nothing happens

    Help please....i'm hoping to set it up and give as a gift

    - Connect the iPod to is syncing computer.  If tiTunes ees the iPod, restore the iPod via iTunes.
    - If not seen in itunes, see if resetting the iPod will let iTunes see the iPod so you can restore the iPod.
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - If not seen, place the iPod in recovry mode and then try to restore the iPod,  For recovery mode see:

  • Video plays on iPhone 3G, but not iPhone 2G or iPod Touch 1st Gen

    Hi all,
    We're creating videos to be played on iPhones and iPod touch's. The videos are working fine on my iPhone 3Gs but won't play on my iPod touch 1st gen or a 2G iPhone. I've had a look and the supported video list is exactly the same on all iPhones and iPod touch's so I'm at a bit of a loss.
    The video in question is here if anyone fancies testing it themselves:

    Have you tried:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price:

  • Ipod Touch 1st Gen - Home button not working

    Ipod Touch 1st Gen - Home button not working. Warranty over. I want to replace it with a new one. Grateful if anybody helps me to locate apple's authorized service centers in New Delhi. Also please let me know how much would it cost. Thanks in advance.

    Yes, if you get it fixes, the iPod will likely be erased. Apple will not repair your old iPod, they exchange it for a refurbished one and do not transfer data.

  • Help. I can't update iPod Touch 1st gen from ios 2.1.2 to 3.1.1; already paid for it.

    Hi all,
      I got an iPod Touch 1st gen for my youngest son for Christmas as a starter. It has the 2.1.2 ios on it, but after I paid for the upgrade to 3.1.1, I keep getting an error message (8288) saying there was a problem with the network connection. I have called customer service, and they suggested I try on a different computer, and if that didn't work, try connecting to a different network, and then trying the update. None of this has worked. It seems that tech support is clueless with this issue.
      I have installed and unistalled iTunes 10.5, 10.3, 10.4, and now I am back with 10.5. I have tried looking up the issue from several search engines but no one  seems to have a universal solution and I have tried several.
      I really want to have this thing updated for himw hwne he opens it, but I am starting to worry that my purchase was a bust. I know this is the oldest version, but I don't want to buy a newer, more expensive iPod and him still not be mature enough to really take care of it. As I said, this one is a starter.
      Can anyone help? Please?!
    Thank you!!!
    P.S. We have a PC, with Windows XP Home.

    Yes, I have contacted them. They are who told me to try a few of the "fixes". They actually said they had never heard of this error, or any problems relating to his download. Also, when I was talking to them, they came here to this forum to find the answer...:/ This is why I am asking here. I was hoping someone had an idea I hadn't tried already.
    Thanks.

  • Ipod touch 1st gen will not sync my apps

    I've just bought my youngest son a cheap second hand Ipod touch 1st gen. I currently run an Iphone 4 and an Ipod touch 4th gen which both sync no problem but this new Ipod will sync everything I have (music, films, books, contacts etc but not the apps. When I click onto the apps section within the new Ipod on iTunes the availabe apps are greyed out and whereas I can click the "sync" box on all other sections there is no response when I click that box in apps.
    Please help me, the other Ipod touch is for my daughter and i can not imaging what will happen come christmas if she has all my apps but my son doesn't. Especially Angry Birds!!!!!!

    - Is the iPod signed into the same iTunes account that purchased the apps? (Settings>Store)
    - Are the apps compatible with a 1G iPod with iOS 3.1.3.  Many apps require a later model iPod or later iOS.l
    - Are restrictions set that prevent add ing apps? Settings>Genera>Restrictions

  • IPod Touch 1st Gen Not Charging/Being Reconized

    As the title says, my iPod Touch (1st Gen) will be reconized bu any computer or charge all in itself. I tried plugging it into multiple computers, nothing. I tried plugging it into the wall adapter...still nothing. It doesnt not get the charging symbol when I plug it into either places. The is actually the second time it happend. The first, well my cord was so worn, I guessed it was the cord and replaced it, worked just fine. The replacement happend very recently, like maybe 1-2 months ago. So right now, I would guess it was the cord, but its brand new. I have tried toing both a soft and hard reset of the iPod, nothing worked. If anyone could please help me, it would be highly appreciated.

    - See if placing  the iPod in Recovery mode will allow a restore
    - Next try DFU mode
