IPOD 5th gen just died!! Wont turn on, wont charge, just black screen

I'm never buying an apple product again.
In the space of 5 minutes to working perfectly fine with full battery to being dead. Ipod wouldn't turn on after clicking every button so I though oh its just having its moment. But it still wont turn on. Plugged it in to charge, nothing. Plugged it into the computer, nothing.
And its a month out of warrenty is it just me or has apple fixed my product because it was working fine and now its broke.
I depend on this for university now what the **** am i supposed to do? Oh go to an apple shop? I live in the frigging country side!
And no i cant put it in DFU mode because its DEAD!

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 another cable              
- 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 iPod 5th gen touch won't turn on after running out of battery and then being charged for several hours

    I was using my ipod touch 5th gen, when it ran out of battery. I wasn't able to charge it all night because the lighting adapter plug broke, and so this battery sign and the lighting charger sign kept popping up telling me to charge it. It ran like that all night and when I woke up it wouldn't turn on at all. I tried plugging it into a few different computers to charge it, and after several hours it still won't turn on. I tried plugging it into my computer with iTunes up, but it still would not charge and my computer would not recognize that it was there. Anyone want to give me some tips?
    Thanks

    Not Charge
    - See:    
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
    - Try another cable. The cable for 5G iPod (lightning connector) seems to be more prone to failure than the older cable.
    - If a 5G iPod

    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

  • IPod 5th Gen Battery Dying Quickly!?!

    I have a U2 Special Edtn 5th Gen iPod Video.
    I have calibrated the battery correctly. Anyways, my iPod was completely charged. I plugged it into the TV to watch a movie. I didn't get 2 hours and it was dead. In previous experiences my battery would last for almost double the suggested movie playing time because the lcd isn't in use when playing to the TV. I would get at LEAST through a movie or two.
    Also, after listening to music one night for about an hour or two the battery was down to about 50%.
    Sound like my battery is getting toasted?

    Unfortunately taking it back to the store is not really an option given that I bought it in Orlando, FLA, and am now in Edinburgh, Scotland!
    It does charge fully and when playing music the battery doesn't seem to go down any quicker than it should. Its when I go to play it again after it being off for 24 hours and find the battery is flat that I can't understand??
    You think its definitely defective? I will try a few things out before I consider returning it to Apple as that would be an almighty hassle I suspect?

  • Ipod 5th Gen not recognised on any computer - will charge via usb

    Hi,
    Does anyone have a fix for my ipod which is not recognised by any computer. Have tried the software reset, putting into disk mode, but no computer will see it as a device. The ipod will however charge by the usb.
    I have tried another 5th Gen on the same computer which is recognised everytime.
    Cannot use the system restore as the computer does not recognise it..
    I need helpppppp!!
    Thanks
    Jimmy

    You've pretty much exhausted everything so it is time to get it serviced. Is it in warranty?

  • My iMessages on my iPod 5th gen just stopped working

    On January 13, 2015 iMessages just stopped sending and receiving texts on my 5th generation iPod touch. I have re-installed, updated iOS and everything else I can think of to reset iMessages including signing out and signing back in. Still doesn't work. I'm at a loss.

    I have an old iPod Touch with old software that can no longer be updated:
    iOS version 6.1.6
    I've been searching for a solution to my iMessage login problem for months and tried everything from those frustrating links and all the tips from other users.
    Here is what finally worked:
    1) Settings > Privacy > Location Services > On
    2) Settings > General > Date & Time > Set Automatically > On
    3) Reboot device until Apple logo appears
    4) Settings > Messages > Sign In

  • My iPod 5th Gen dies fast when it is fully charged.

    It could be fully charged and in 20-30 minutes it will notify me that it has 20% battery left and then in 5 minutes it will die. Also when it dies sometimes it doesn't say plug it in it just turns back on and has 20% battery again and then dies again and sometimes turns back on again. Can you please help me.

    If you charge for at least four hor how long can you play a video? About 4-5 hours seems to be the norm.
    Fluctuation between the 20% warning is not abnormal
    Try:
    - 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.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - 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.

  • IPod 5th Gen keeps turning on and off!! ***

    My iPod 5th Gen just keeps turning on and off, I dunno why but it just does!
    I just updated the iPod about 10 minutes ago, and it completed then right after it comes up with the Silver Apple logo, then lights up, then shuts down, makes the hard drive clicky sound too. And just does that over and over and over again. I hate it.
    I've tried to put it into Disk mode, and Menu+Select and Menu+Play. Nothing works!
    What do I do??

    im having the same problems but once i get my ipod into disk mode i cant seem to restore it..
    You restore it when plugged into your computer and it shows up in iTunes. The restore function is in iTunes. Sometimes you have to force the iPod into disk mode in order to get it to mount and show up in iTunes.

  • My ipod 5th gen has been acting up. Its been shutting off at random times and appears to be glitching out. The screen would go different colors and when it would turn back on my recent texts and stuff would be deleted.

    My iPod 5th gen has been doing this for awhile, though it progressively got better over time, it still happens occasionally like when I'm out running. My iPod is never able to connect strongly to any WiFi network. All the WiFi networks keep disappearing and then coming back, and this is infuriating because it wont let me sign in to iTunes or IMessage at all or update my iPod easily. My date and time keeps getting off track and every time i set it back to normal it just gets messed up again. Now it wont let me connect to iTunes and receive push notifications. I tried logging out o my Apple ID on my phone but now it wont let me sign back in. WHAT IS GOING ON HELP PLEASE!?!?!
