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.
- 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.

  • My daughters imessage on her ipod touch has just stopped working - to get it going again I reset it with my email address but this doesn't allow her to send messages to any of her contacts.  When I try and put her email back in it says it can't verify it

    My daughters imessage & face time on her ipod touch has suddenly stopped working.  The only way i could get it going again was to reset it up with my email address.  This will not allow her to send messages to any of her contacts in her addess book.  I have tried to set up her email (which she previously used successfully) but it will not allow this it states 'unable to verify email because it is already in use' - anyone any ideas its is driving me mad !!

    Try here:
    iOS: FaceTime is 'Unable to verify email because it is in use'

  • I have an iPod Classic. I think it is a 5th generation. I would like to know if I can download games from the App store that say they are for iPads, iPhones, and iPod Touch. Will these work on my iPod Classic?

    what if i have and ipod touch 4th generation will i still get the iOS 7 update?

    No. The iPod 4 gen is below the cutoff for iOS7
    So it will not be able to upgrade to it

  • HT3529 I have and iPod Touch, and my sister has an iPod touch. Both use the same Apple ID. If I use iMessage, can my sister see my messages?

    I have and iPod Touch, and my sister has an iPod touch. Both use the same Apple ID. If I use iMessage, can my sister see my messages?

    Yes.
    I recommend that you
    Create a NEW account/ID using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
      Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Use the new ID  but only for:
    Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
    Settings>FaceTime
    Settings>GameCenter
    and Settings>iCloud if you want to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.    
    Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases.

  • I have and ipod touch 4th gen that has the white screen of death but my home button doesnt work. how do i reset it?

    i have and ipod touch 4th gen that has the white screen of death but my home button doesnt work. how do i reset it?

    Restore, if iTunes will let you.  Everything except the password will be restored.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  Be forewarned that it takes a long time.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • The speakers on my iPod Touch 2nd generation stopped working.

    The speakers on my iPod Touch 2nd generation stopped working.  The volume doesn't even register - can't turn it up or down.  On occasion the headphones will work when plugged in.  Turned it off and on, tried reset, nothing works.  I bought it second hand so no AppleCare. What can I do?

    Try restoring the iPod via iTunes on your computer.  First from backup and if problem persists restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

    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.

    If you have an iPod touch:
    For Windows: See iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    For Mac OS X: See iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    Have a nice day,

  • IPod Touch Gen 1 Stopped Working

    I have an iPod touch generation 1 and it just stopped working. It was working and I plugged it in to finish charging and when I woke up a few hours later it wouldn't turn on. It still won't turn on and doesn't appear in my iTunes. What do I do?

    The iOS update made the iPod less tolerent of marginal/fake Lightning cables. All you can do is get a certified Lightning cable. I would get a genuine Apple cable.

    You're doing the wrong thing.
    Touch and hold an icon - any app icon.
    When they wiggles, you can drag them.

  • Updated to os4.3.3 and to itunes 10.2.2 and ipod touch will no longer work (sync) to computer.  I have removed all Apple Software and reinstalled and this did not fix the probelm

    I updated my ipod touch 3rd generation to the new operating system 4.3.3 and itunes to the latest.  I have a WindowsXP machine all was working fine until the updates.  Since then after trying many things. Currently unable to transfer music to the ipod.

    Found solution after trying many things that were recommended in the Apple error messages.
    The problem was resolved after I totally removed my Security Software.
