I've had my iPod touch on charge for a while but it's still not turning on

hello, i'm kirsty
since the start of the summer holidays i havent used my iPod touch as i would if i was at school...
it's been in my Teknika iPod speakers... i unplugged them for a while so the battery must have gone flat
but i am curious as to why my iPod is not turning on now, i've held the on button down for a while which
didnt do anything so i held the on button and the middle button... this didnt do anything either... i left my
iPod for a whole day to charge the other week and the next day it came on but kept turning itself off...
since then as i said its been in the docks but its never turned itself back on as it would usually do if it went dead
please help?! i need my iPod back before school otherwise i will die!
thanks, i'll be greatful if you reply.

After coneecting to a charging source for half an hour:
- connect it to your computer.  If it shows in iTunes, restore the iPod via iTunes
- If it does not show, see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow you to restore the iPod. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
Next, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • I have had an iPod Touch 3rd Gen for two years and the apps have worked fine in the past. Suddenly the apps will not launch, they appear to start then just exit. Is there a reason why it is doing this?

     I have had an iPod Touch 3rd Gen for two years pretty much and the apps have worked fine. Suddenly when I go on an app it appears to launch then just exits. I tried turning the iPod off and on again, but that made all my apps behave like that. Settings and those things work fine still. Should this suddenly happen? I dont want to lose all 204 apps.

    - First try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
    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.
    - Next try downloading/installing a new app
    - Restore from backup
    - Last, resore to factory defaults/new iPod.  this is last result since you will lose app data.

  • I downloaded the pokemon yellow version app for my ipod touch more than a month ago and it is still not working.  It has not worked for anybody who bought it.  How can I get my money back?

    I downloaded the pokemon yellow version app for my ipod touch more than a month ago and it is still not working.  It has not worked for anybody who bought it. Why is it off of the app store now and how do I get my money back?

    That message is usually due to a bad cable.

  • Tried to update my iPod touch 4 G to IOS 5 but I tunes does not recognize it. Everything worked OK when I did my other touch. I have had no problems updating to updates in the past. Any suggestions

    I have been trying to update my IPod touch 4g to IOS 5, but I tunes does not recognize it and says it is up to date. When I Updated my other touch yesterday every thing worked great. but this one does not seem to want to go beyond 4.2.1(8C148)

    Ok make sure you have iTunes 11. Then connect iPod touch to computer then iTunes should pop up automatically. After it opens on the bottom left there should be a tab where it says your name and then iPod. For example (Johns iPod) click on that then it brings all your information of the iPod including restore and updating.
    Dont worry

  • My 5th gen ipod touch dropped face down (with case) and now it will not turn on and is not recognized by my PC.  Can anyone help me? I had alot of videos and pictures on it and don't want to loose them.

    Last week my 5th generation ipod touch dropped face down onto the ground.  When picked up the screen was black and did not turn back on.  I tried to connect it to the laptop but it did not recognize the ipod.  Also when it is plugged into the laptop the area by the camera gets warm like it is charging.  But still has a black screen.  I've tried to reset and count to 10, but nothing happends.  Is there anything that can be done to fix this?  Or is it completely dead?  Somebody, anybody please help.

  • I have had my Ipod touch 4th gen for 2+ years and was working fine until I upgraded to ios 6.1.3. Now I cannot play games and most of my apps keep crashing.

    My ipod was working just fine for the past 2 years and ever since upgrading to ios 6.1.3, i simply cannot play games or anymore such as Subway surfers, carrot fantasy, 4 pics 1 word, etc. I also noticed that i had 1.2 GB of free space on ios 5.1.1 but then decreased to 900+ MB after "upgrading" to ios 6.1.3. I then deleted one of my space-hungry apps (the sims freeplay) to clear up some space and now have 1.6 GB of free memory. Just a thought, could apple have purposely done this with their software update to actually make an older, phased-out product such as my ipod touch 4th gen work worse than it has in its  previous versions of softwares to force you to scrap it for a newer product?

    - Double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod.
    - 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

  • IPod touch 2g charger for wall

    What should be the output of the charger for wall for iPod touch 2g? How many volts(V) and amperes or milliamperes(A,mA)?

    This is why I'm confused: http://www.amazon.com/Apple-FireWire-Power-Adapter-White/dp/B0000D8LSW/ref=pdsim_e3
    This is a product that was available in 2005 (note the date on the reviews at the bottom of the page). That's about the time I bought my wall charger.
    This is the USB wall charger: http://www.amazon.com/Apple-Power-Adapter-iPod-White/dp/B0002ZAIMI
    I'm sure the wall charger I have is USB. Should it work with my iPod Touch 2G?
    Thank you
