IPod 4th generation will not turn on and its brand new!
I just got my iPod touch. It is a 4th generation. I got it for Christmas of 2012. Now it wont turn on. I had left my iPod touch on the floor, my window was open, and it was very cold. I left it fully charged and I went to sleep and woke up and it wouldnt turn on. I didnt have music playing or the wifi on so that wouldnt be the cause of it not turning on. The coldness may have something to do with my iPod not turning on. It won't show up on the laptop and I'm scared the battery isnt working anymore. I am considering the thought of bringing it to the Apple Store. I dont want to get a new one cause I have a touch screen cover on my iPod. I hope someone comes up with an answer. Please help ASAP!
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.

help me please !!
Sounds like a dead battery. Take it into your local Apple store/Genius bar and see if there is anything they can do for you. Another option is to send it in to a third party repair company who can replace the battery at a pretty low cost.

My ipod touch 5th generation will not turn on and the home button doesn't work. what do i do?
Hello my name is Leslie and i would like to ask you guys a question on how to fix my ipod or what is wrong with it. My ipod touch 5th generation will not turn on and the home button doesn't work. what can i do to fix it ?
Has the home button worked in the past, or is this been something that hasn't worked for some time? The only way to reset the device is with the sleep/wake (power) and home buttons together. Without it, you would have to wait until the battery dies and then plug it in to try and reset it. The Home button is used for several user troubleshooting steps. Without it, you cannot perform a reset, put the device into recovery mode, or place it in DFU mode. You need to get the home button repaired.

My Ipod 4th Gen will not turn on. When I hook it up to the computer I get the ITunes symbol and the usb device on the screen of the Ipod. When I go to restore the Ipod it will not restore. I am getting unknown error code 6.
Likely this:
Errors related to third-party security software
Error 2, 4 (or -4), 6, 40, 1000, 9006
Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
There may be third-party software that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting a TcpWindowSize entry into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause these errors. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet size modification for assistance or follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).
Verify that access to ports 80 and 443 are allowed on your network.
Verify that communication to albert.apple.com or photos.apple.com is not blocked by a firewall, or other Internet security setting.
Discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps underAdvanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations.
Restore your device while connected to a different network.
Restore using a different computer. -

My ipod nano 4th generation will not turn on or charge. It is just sitting (frozen) at a black (blank) screen. What do I do?

help me my ipod 4th generation will not charge. i have tryed a wall ataptor an other computers.What should i do? Should i get a new ipod or should i try and get a new charger and see if that helps.It has not been changing for two weeks straight now .Help Please.
Either your USB cable for the charger has been damaged or the part of the iPod where you insert the USB cable is damaged. This usually happens due to water damage or carelessly removing the USB plug off from the iPod. Hope this clears some doubts
You might also wanna try and check with the Genius Bar at Apple, they usually know whats wrong. -

IPod shuffle 4th generation will not turn on?!?!
My iPod shuffle 4th generation flashes red for 3 seconds when connected to the USB charger but will not turn on, charge or connect to the computer. This means i can not go through the basic trouble shooting reset steps. I tried turning it off waiting 10 seconds and turning it on. I made sure the buttons were no diabled. I updated my iTunes and updated all software on my computer and restarted it. I also made sure the USB port works by putting something else in- it works. I am running out of options given on the apple website!!! WHAT DO I DO?
Hello StefiPod,
It sounds like your iPod is not charging, and you have already restarted your computer as well as updated your iTunes application and the issue persists. You have also verified that the USB port works for other devices.
I recommend these troubleshooting steps from the article named:
iPod shuffle troubleshooting and service FAQ
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1412
Your iPod shuffle may need to be reset. See this article for steps to reset iPod shuffle. Resetting does not affect your music or data files.
If a red light is blinking or continuously on, your iPod battery may not be charged. You can find information on charging iPod shuffle here. To find out how to check the battery life, see the article "Checking the charge." To get the most out of your battery, be sure to check out our battery tips and tricks article.
If none of these steps worked, you may need to restore your iPod shuffle software. Please be aware that doing so will delete all your files on iPod shuffle.
If the issue persists, then your iPod may need service. Follow the section toward the bottom labeled:
Get Service
If you've tried all the appropriate troubleshooting steps above and those found on the iPod shuffle Support page, and have determined that your iPod shuffle needs service, you can request service online.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,

Hello crimsonflare,
Try this first:

If that does not work, use this:
Putting iPod into Disk Mode
and try to restore you ipod.
Hope this helps.
