- 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 classics clicker will not work
my ipod classics clicker will not work so i can not turn it off or on i cant play music or anything please help
Have you checked the 'Hold' button at the top left of your Classic to make sure it didn't get bumped into the ON position?
If it's been moved to the right and you can see the red indicator, then 'Hold' has been switched on and none of the buttons on the iPod will work.
What happens if you plug your iPod into a charger or connect it to iTunes?

After updating to iOS 4.3.3 my iPod touch(3rd generation) will no longer play music threw the speaker. It may play for a split second and it stops and the volume bar goes away along with the function of the volume buttons. The speaker will not work right away but eventually will return, it still works for youtube and and everything else but music.

My ipod 2nd generation will not work because I forget my passcode
I am trying to wipe my ipod

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
If yoo want to wipe the iPod, just restore to factory settings/new iPod.
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store -

My ipod 3rd generation will not work
apple logo only on screen and flashes with lines, anyone know if can repair this problem?
Try restoring it. like so
You might also have to enter recovery mode. You do this by plugging the iPod touch into a computer then hold down the power button for about 5 seconds until you see the red slider button to power it off, slide to power off the iPod touch. Then press and hold both the power button and the home button at the same time until you see the Apple logo, then release the power button but keep holding in the home button. Hold the home button in until you see the iTunes logo on the iPod touch, then let go of it. You can then restore your iPod using any computer but keep in mind that you will lose everything.
To my knowledge, this should work for password protected iPod touch's and it is the only way to unlock your iPod touch without plugging it into the first computer. -
My iPod touch screen will not work.
Ever since last night, my iPod's touch screen has been messed up. I didn't use it incorrectly or anything; I just used my iPod like I normally did for the past eight months. I have seen no problems until now. The iPod's keyboard is screwed up, when I press the letter "a" the capitalizing button is activated. They same is repeated over and over among over letters as well. The first sign of the issue was when I was trying to watch a video, the play button refused to be pressed and random things were constantly activated while I did nothing. The lock screen slide doesn't work either, the only way to get into my iPod is my activating the lock camera and then pressing the home button. Should I restore the iPod or is there a quick way to fix this?
Your screen digitizer needs to be replaced. See options in link below.
