I have an ipod touch 4th gen. charged twice battery went dead now will not charge or power on. what can I do?

I have had my 4th gen ipod touch for over a yr. But I've only charged it twice now it wont charge or power up. I have had ppl try resetting it. But no change. Is there something I can do to fix it?

Try:
- 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.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My ipod touch 4th gen shows 3 bars of connectivity but will not load on internet-required apps

    my ipod touch 4th gen shows 3 bars of connectivity but will not load on internet-required apps

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network       
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    Hello,
    This will fix your problem!
    To put the device in DFU mode,
    1. Connect the device to iTunes
    2. Hold both the power button and the home button down simultaneously
    3. After 10 seconds, release the power button but leave the home button pressed
    4. iTunes should then recognize that the device has entered DFU mode and ask to restore.
    That should get you back on your way.

    Is your device recognized by your computer? If yes, copy the pictures and videos as shown in this article:
    Copying personal photos and videos from iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your computer
    If it is not recognized, try this first: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    Disable autosync in iTunes, right click on it in the device list and choose "transfer purchases" to copy apps and other media bought in iTunes to your new library.
    Do the same again and choose "backup", to create a manual backup without syncing.
    Since your device will be erased due to the new iTunes library during the first sync, you can use this backup afterwards to restore your settings and data.
    Set up at least one contact and event on your computer before you start, to be able to merge calendars and contacts.

  • Have an iPod touch 4th gen.  It is completely charged, but once I disconnect from a power source it shuts down and then the apple logo just keeps reappearing.  I have restored via iTunes and reset all the settings.  Any suggestions?

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

  • I have an ipod touch 4th Gen that everything was working perfectly. After the last update of iOs5, the battery have charge 20 minutes. Even after the correction of the iOS 5.0.1 the battery have the same 20 minutes. What I can do?

    Hi
    I have an ipod touch 4th Gen that everything was working perfectly. After the last update of iOs 5, the battery have charge 20 minutes. After the correction of the iOS 5.0.1 the battery have the same 20 minutes. What I can do? Thanks

    Same thing here. Try putting the brightness down all the way (its hard to see at first but you will get used to it) and one more thing is that close all you open apps. So to do that you have to click the home button twice (after you put your passcode in) and you will see some apps in the bottom. Hold it until there is a red - sign. click all of them so they go away. This does not delete your apps it just makes your ipod better.

  • I have an ipod touch (4th gen) and just bought a clock/charger/player.  It says I need ios 4.3.  I keep getting a message saying I can download 6.? but it will wipe out everything on my ipod.  Is there a way to get the ios without wiping out my files?

    There is no supported method to "downgrade" iOS on any device.  If you update, you will get the latest iOS for your device, which will be iOS 6.1.3.  You cannot go backwards to iOS 4.3
    If you have never backed up in either iCloud or iTunes, then upgrading to iOS 6.1.3 will involve restoring your device as part of the upgrade.  Without a backup to restore from, you will loose everything that is on it.
    You should first connect to iTunes with your computer, sync your device without upgrading and create an up to date backup of everything.  Then use the upgrade option in iTunes to update your iOS.
    However, if the dock device strictly requires iOS 4.3, it will not work, as you cannot downgrade iOS.  There simply is no mechanism from Apple to do that.

  • I have a iPod Touch 4th Gen. Would not turn on. I try doing a reset (Power/Lock and Home for 10 sec), still nothing.

    I have a iPod Touch 4th Gen. It ran out of battery. So I charged it and it wouldn't show the charging sign. After a few hours, I tried turning on the device, it would not work. I try doing a reset (Power/Lock and Home for 10 sec), still nothing.
    I've tried plugging it in to my computer.
    Used different chargers, usb cables.
    Try doing reset.
    I did not drop it recently or drop the device into water. It was working fine before.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

  • I have an ipod touch 4th gen, installed the latest update to iOS 6 and have lost all my music. Where did it go?

    I have an ipod touch 4th gen, installed the latest update to iOS 6 and have lost all my music, apps etc. It also linked up with an alternate email address???? Help!

    I have a similar issue happenning with my ipod touch 64GB running IOS 6.0.1.  My music content is stored via itunes on my Snow Leopard macbook pro as well (and not in the cloud).  The music on my ipod (which is sync'd to my macbook pro when I connect via usb) has randomly disappeared about 3 or 4 times lately, not during sync'ing and unrelated to battery charge levels. Fortunately I have been able to restore it by restarting my macbook pro then re-syncing the ipod, which it is now doing as I write, but it takes hours (for over 3000 songs).  Having looked at a few other forum discussion pages, it seems this may be a bug related to IOS 6 updates and using music/itunes and podcast playing apps. The same thing has intermittently occurred with some other content such as downloaded podcasts, iplayer content and photos. Once I reconnected the ipod it synced and apparently restored the content, but I can't understand why it lost it in the first place, and its very annoying. Lets hope the reinstalling works on my ipod tonight....up to 248 of 3326 songs syncing as I write....

    Hey Babetta94,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    After reviewing your post, the iPod is not recognized in iTunes. A frustrating situation to be sure. You haven't mentioned what OS the computer you are using uses. You can choose what article to use either OS X or Windows from this quoted section.

  • I have an iPod touch 4th gen. why does it show the wrong album art only on my ipod and not on itunes? Is there any way I can fix it?

    I have an ipod touch 4th gen. why does it show the wrong album artwork on my ipod and it's fine on itunes. why is that and is there any way to fix it? please help!

    I think it can't find the right or any artwork and ends up putting junk in there.
    And can happen with artist and other tags.
    probably fine with commercial media but otherwise....? I think you have to manaully go in and edit
    I also don't like how it handles and stores non-Apple iTunes store content.
