Ipod doesnt want to turn on
my ipod touch is less than a week old. i was just using it this morning. i know there is still enough battery life. now, when i pressed the on/off button, it won't turn on! help!!!
Your Touch may be in the off mode.
Press and hold the sleep button until it powers on, 3-5 seconds.
Option B, recharge overnight for good luck.

in the beginning my ipod was working fine and then came to a point that i can only use it while it is connected to a charger. my brother went to go fix it so then everything was working fine. & a month or two later the apps on my ipod would stop working . i would open it but then they would just shut back down. & i told my brother about it and he said all i had to do was reset the ipod. so he did that and the apps where working fine. then 10 minutes later i pressed one of the apps and the ipod turned white and shut off. now all it does it shoes the apple then it goes white and turns off again. i really want to get my pictures back because they are important.
Connect the iPod to your computer and let it charge for a couple of hours. The try to backup the iPod

- If they are in an iPod backup then restore an iPod, iPhone or iPad from that backup. See the restore topic of:
iOS: How to back up
- If they are in the iTunes backup then get them from the backup by:
Recover iPhone, iPad or iPod photos from backups with Picturescue
or
iPhone Backup Extractor for Windows and Mac
- If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:

- 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.

What happens when you try to restore?
If it is asking for the passcode then
Place the iPod in Recovery Mode and restore via iTunes.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If not successful, try DFU mode.

Your iPod's hard drive had probably gone bad. You may need to get your iPod inspected or its hard drive replaced by Apple.
Have you tried out all the suggestions contained in the links below?:

My ipod doesnt want to restore and has usb and itunes when turning on?
ipod touch doesnt want restore and has usb cord and itunes signs when u turn on help?
- See the not-charging topic of:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Have you tried another cable?
- Another charging source? Does iTunes see the iPod when you connect to your computer?
- Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, foreign material and cracked or broken plastic.
- Also, see the other topics of that article.
- Restore the iPod. -
My ipad has been disabled and off for almost a year already i want to restart my ipad but doesnt want to charge is there any way i can make my ipad turn on or restart i alreaady tried charging it for acouple hours and clicking the middle and top button at the same time but it still doesnt work.... is there any other way to restart my ipad?
You don't just click the home and sleep button, you have to hold them down for at least 10 seconds while it is connected to the charger. If it comes awake (and it could take several tries) ignore the red Off slider, wait for the Apple logo and then let go of the buttons.
But that may not work. Polymer Ion batteries need exercise, a full power cycle is recommended once a month. Your battery may be dead. -
Ipod not wanting to turn on??? help!
My Ipod touch is not wanting to turn on. I have downloaded the new 9.1 version from itunes and it still doesn't want to turn on. The battery should be juiced up and have it plugged into my computer right now but nothing.
For the record, recovery mode is when you hold the home button while plugging in your iPod to your computer. Refer to the section about restoring below, and this support article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
First try some simple troubleshooting. Try resetting the iPod by holding both the home and sleep/wake buttons, ignoring the red power slider. Keep both buttons held until it reboots and the Apple logo screen appears. This will not erase any data, settings, or info.
Make sure your iPod is charged enough. If you cannot charge it, try using different cables and plug adapters, if available. Also try using various outlets and cable/adapter combinations.
Try restoring through iTunes (assuming that your computer recognizes your iPod). This will erase all of your data and settings, but everything will be synced back at the end of the restore if you have backed up your iPod. Make sure your library is on your computer and you have backed up your iPod, which occurs at the beginning of every sync. For the first restore attempt, when iTunes prompts you to either restore from a backup or set up as new, then choose to "Restore from the backup of..." If the problem is not fixed then restore again, this time choosing to set up as a new iPod. If your computer doesn't recognize your iPod, then try recovery mode. To do this, turn it off, press and hold the home button, and plug it in to your computer via the USB cable. Hopefully, the screen showing a USB cable with an arrow pointing to an iTunes icon will appear and you can do a restore from there, as iTunes should recognize the iPod in recovery mode.
If you are unable to get the problem fixed, make an appointment at an Apple Store to get it replaced. If it is under warranty, then it will likely be replaced at no charge. -

Hello Yaeltorres,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like your iPod Classic will not turn on.
I found this article that addresses that issue specifically for you.
iPod won't turn on
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1383
Make sure the Hold switch is off
Check to see if the Hold switch is on. It's located on the top or the bottom of iPod. When it's in the on position, you'll see an orange patch.
To turn the hold switch off, slide it until you no longer see the orange patch.
Press any button to turn on iPod.
Make sure the battery is charged
iPod won't turn on if the battery is empty. Instead, a low battery screen appears for about 3 seconds when you try to turn it on.To charge your iPod, connect your iPod to your computer's built-in 6-pin FireWire or high-powered USB port or connect it to the Apple iPod Power Adapter and plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet. Note: iPod models without a Click Wheel cannot be charged via USB. iPod shuffle requires a high-power USB port to charge. iPod nano and iPod (5th generation) can charge via USB or FireWire, but they require USB to sync with iTunes. If you're not sure what iPod model you have, click here.If you are connecting via USB and the battery is completely discharged, there may be up to a 30-minute delay before iPod powers up. Click here for more information.
Reset iPod
If iPod still does not turn on or appears to be "frozen" you may need to reset it. When you reset iPod all your songs and files are saved. Some customized settings may be lost.
Let the iPod battery drain
In rare cases, iPod might get into a state in which it needs to be drained completely before it can be reset. If iPod didn't turn on after you reset it, follow these steps:
Disconnect iPod from all power sources and leave it disconnected for about 24 hours.
Reconnect iPod to the Apple iPod Power Adapter or computer and reset it.
Update iPod's software
If iPod turns on after you reset it, use the latest version of iTunes to update iPod.
Additional Information
If you have tried the solutions above and iPod still won't turn on, check the following:
Make sure iPod is the only device in your FireWire or USB chain. Disconnect everything but the mouse, keyboard, and your iPod, then see if it will turn on.
Make sure you are using the FireWire or USB cable that came with your iPod, and that the cable is in good condition.
Try connecting iPod to the built-in port of a different computer to see if that works. Note: If using a portable computer, make sure it is plugged in to a power source and that the lid or display is open. If the lid is closed the computer may go into either standby, sleep, or hibernation mode and iPod will not charge properly.
If you still can't turn iPod on after performing these steps, it may need to be repaired. You can arrange for repair at the iPod Service Website.

My ipod touch keeps freezing and doesnt want to turn on anymore.
i have a 32gb 4th generation ipod touch, it stopped working properly like 2 weeks ago. It stopped functioning right when the home button didnt go as smooth. I had to press it really hard to go from one app to the home screen. if i pressed it twice to change music, it would turn negative color. i turned that off but the button kept acting the same. it is fustrating. ive tried turning it off then back on but it doesnt change and today while in an app it froze completely. i held the power and home button to reset it, although it was hard, it turned off. while trying to turn it back on, it froze on the black screen with the apple in the middle. is there anyway i can fix it or what can i do?
i need help its very fustrating and it keeps turning on and off by itself on the black screen with the apple for over 10 minutes.
ive only had it for 5 months. please help!This also happened to me when I did the jailbreak and restored, he caught the apple in the middle of the screen and spent four monthswithout knowing what to do, I called support and found it was onlyTIGHTEN THE BUTTON UP, HOLD AND PRESS THE BUTTONAND HOME HOLD BOTH, then the image will appear to connectthe pc, when you will connect to iTunes and a message that youriPod disendo is in recovery mode, then just restore it and hope itreturns to normal. Hope this helps everyone.
Ps: I do not speak English and I'm translating this message forgoogle, so sorry for the mistakes grammarians.
