Ipod is stuck in apple boot up mode  please help!

My son was trying to erase his content on this old ipod touch and it is now stuck in the boot up mode. If we try to reset by holding sleep/hold buttons it will look like it is trying to boot up and then spinning gear will stop. Then later it will restart again but nothing ever happens. This has gone on for over 5 hours. Tried hooking it up to computer to restore thru iTunes but would not recognize ipod. Any way to fix. Would really like to get this working so I can use it.

  • Iphone 5 is stuck on apple loading screen. Please help?

    I have an Iphone 5. I went to take a photo and my phone shut down and rebooted itself. This has happened many times and it just got overwhelemed and always turned back on. Currently my phone however is stuck on the black apple loading screen right before the phone turns back on.
    Only problem is my lock button at the top does not work, and because of that i can not manually reboot. I had it hooked up to itunes and nothing was shown that i can get past this.
    Please help, I am un able to find an answer on the internet and run out of my own ideas.
    Really appreciated!

    Whatever the reason for whats happened if the lock button is faulty i would recomend getting in contact with an apple authorised service provider to get the button fixed while your still in warranty. As far as getting the phone to restart you will probably need to wait until it goes flat and try again. If the phone gets replaced you will lose any information on it so hopefully you can get it to turn on again.

  • Ipod is stuck on apple sign

    ipod is stuck on apple sign and every time i restart it it goes to a white screen then cuts off and cuts on to the apple sign what do i do ?

    Try:

    - 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 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.

    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
    - Try on another computer/network
      - Wait if it is an Apple problem

  • Why can't i update the ios for my ipod? I'm stuck at 3.1.3. Please help.

    Why can't i update the ios for my ipod? I'm stuck at 3.1.3. Please help.
    I have itunes updated but it doesn't show that an update is available for the ipod.

    Probably because yu have a 1G iPod that can only go as high as 3.1.3. To identify your iPod:

    If you want to solve your problems, unjailbreak. And don't do it again, because jailbreaking causes problems as you read about in that article. You can try Recovery Mode: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • HT201263 iphone is stuck at "Restoring Iphone Firmware".  Please Help.

    I was restoring and updating my Iphone 5 to IOS 7.0,6 and during the process after completing more than 50% of the process my phone is stuck at "Restoring Iphone Firmware".  Please Help.

    Hello nishit.kadia,
    It sounds like your phone became unresponsive when you attempted a restore of the device. Try resetting your device with this process:
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
    From: Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
              http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    I would try putting the device in to recovery mode, and attempting the restore again:
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device

  • I lost my iPod and it's offline. Can someone PLEASE help me?

    I lost my iPod and it's offline. Can someone PLEASE help me?

    No.
    lost/stolen                                     
    No app on the iPod is required.                           
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected, on a computer browser go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up or conbtinue to show off-line.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    iCloud: Erase your device
    iCloud: Use Lost Mode
    - If not shown/or off-line, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

  • Trying to sync iPod with library, but receive this message, "The iPod is synced with another itunes library.  Do you want to erase this ipod and sync with this itunes library".  I do not want to erase my iPod... Any suggestions??  Please help!!

    Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive (works the same with an SD card) into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

    Error 1 or -1 indicates a serious hardware issue.
    Take the device to Apple or whomever provides hardware support in your country for evaluation and likely replacement.
