I updated my 20G iPod with click wheel and now it wont turn on all the way

Ok so I updated my 20G iPod with click wheel with the latest version (three point something), and now when i try to turn it on, it shows the apple logo and then has a pic of an ipod being plugged into a power adapter being plugged into a wall socket. i have reset it about 40 times and it always does the same thing. i have tried to charge the ipod with my computer but it does absolutely nothing (i dont have a power adapter). Also, when i reset my ipod WHEN IT IS PLUGGED INTO THE COMPUTER, it shows the "Very low battery" picture.Also, my computer does not see the iPod in "my computer" or iTunes. I have another iPod, which works perfectly on my computer. I thank anyone who tries to help me.

You must have a charge of your iPod with an ac charger, in order to complete the Restore process.
You can also charge your iPod with
1. iPod car charger
2. iPod speaker dock system e.g. iPod HiFi or Bose soundstage

    my ipod touch shut off and now it wont turn back on, how do i fix that?

    Hey lattifahfromny,
    Thanks for the question. Based on the information you have provided, the following resource may assist you:

    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    1. Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.

    See these troubleshooting articles.
    My iPod is sad.
    What does this picture on my iPod mean?
    PC doesn't recognize the iPod is connected.
    When restoring the iPod, it's useful to put into disk mode first.

    The sad iPod icon is usually indicative of a hard drive problem, and if none of the above help, it may need service.

         Hello I have a ipod nano 5th Gen and it keeps on freezing and powering off and I tried resetting it and charging it but it wont turn back on what do I do?

    Hello firebird1986,
    I would be concerned too if my iPod was unresponsive and powering off too.  I found a resource that I think would help in a situation like this.
    I recommend following the steps in this troubleshooting assistant:

  • Today i plugged my ipod in to charge and now it wont turn on!

    Today i plugged my iPod touch 2g in to charge and when i came back 1 hr later i was unable to turn it on, charge it, and even my computer didn't recognise it. The screen is completely black and im worried about what to do. I tried a manual reboot, and putting it into DFU mode but to no effect. The iPod is quite old and i'm pretty sure it it out of warranty so i can only hope the problem is fixable. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance.

  • I tried to put my ipod in dfu mode and now it wont turn back on?

    my ipod was diabled and it said i had to connect it to itunes. then i was told to put it into dfu mode. i tried to do that but now my ipod wont turn back on. HELP?

    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.

  • IPod with click wheel - will not restore

    Hi all,
    I know I've got the dinosaur of the iPods, but hey. I have a 20g iPod with click wheel. Every time I load up iTunes with the iPod plugged into the PC, iTunes tells me that my iPod is in recovery mode and needs to be restored. (Not sure how that happened, but anyway.) So, I tell it to restore, then plug it into the external power supply as it tells me to do. However, when it is finished restoring, and I plug it back into the PC to reload the songs from iTunes, the cycle starts again. I have restarted my computer, done soft resets of my iPod, but it still won't update. Any help would be appreciated. Though the newer iPods are very pretty, I am quite happy with my old dinosaur, haha.

    After a lot of searching and working on this, I found the problem - and it wasn't my previously theorized conspiracy to get us all to buy more from Apple.... It was quite simple actually.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304508 I followed all of these directions including re-installing the dlls and the usb drivers, but I think the key was that I have multiple USB devices plugged into my computer. I unplugged all but my wireless keyboard. Then I used a different USB port for my iPod than I had tried before. It updated..... Yeah. I don't have to buy one of the new over priced fancy models!!!!

  • Ipod with click wheel. Windows displays device not recognized problem.

    I'm using a ipod with click wheel, and hooking it up through a usb 2.0 port with the stock cable.
    I keep getting a device not recognized message from windows, and the itunes software 8.xxxx does not recognize it even in diagnostics tests. Everything else is pass, except the ipod recognition.
    The battery needs to be charged, and is depleted but its not recieving a charge when plugged into the computer.
    Does anyone have a solution to this?

    If the iPod is not getting a charge through the cable (and the battery is depleted), it may not be recognized because the iPod has no power to do anything.
    I would say the problem is either a faulty dock connector on the iPod, a faulty cable, or a faulty USB port on the computer. You have probably tested the USB port possibility already by trying a different port (or trying another USB device on the same port), so I would try a different USB docking cable as the next test.

  • Why isn't my iPod (5th Generation) turning on all the way?

    Okay earlier my iPod died and I plugged it in, while it was charging I was about to open my message app. Right when I clicked on it my iPod died or did something anyways. Now whenever I turn it on I just see the white apple logo for several seconds and the screen goes black again. I charged my iPod for about 5 hours so I don't think it's dead. I have tried holding down the home and power button together several times and it still hasn't turned all the way back on yet...and it wont connect to iTunes because it wont turn on all the way...what do I do?
    ( I haven't done the most recent update either so it's still iOS 8.1.2)

  • Will the accessories for iPod with click wheel 20G work with the new gen?

    Hi,
    I have a iPod with click wheel 20GB and am considering to get a new one, iPod with video 40GB or 80GB. Can I still use the following iPod accessories for 20GB one?
    - dock
    - USB power adapter
    Thanks.

    I know a iPod comes with a usb cord but I would like to use the USB power adapter I have so I can charge iPod during travel with computer/laptop.
    It seems to me that the connector in USB power adapter is a regular USB type B connector. But, I could not find the information to confirm it is a regular USB type B. Even it is the regular USB type B connector it does not work with the a usb cord shipped with iPod, which is a USB type A connector. That's the reason I would like to know if I can use it with new generation of iPod.
    Or, I can just get a USB connector converter. But, not sure if it can supply the enough power to ...
    B.t.w., the model number of the power adapter is A1070.

  • Cannot sync iPod with click wheel to iTunes...

    I cannot sync my iPod with click wheel to my iTunes on Windows. I have already attempted the five R's, multiple times, including restoring my iPod three times, and updating my iTunes software. But when I plug my iPod in, it takes forever to be recognized by iTunes, and just sits there, whizzing and clicking, with the "Do Not Disconnect" message blinking. After awhile, iTunes will download a song or two from my library, then quit. I often get a message that says my iPod is "corrupted." Help! How can I get my iTunes library back on to my iPod?

    I am having similar issues. I have received lots of advice, none of which work so far but there is lots to try here. Good luck!
