IPOD IS STUCK ON APPLE IMAGE

my ipod is stuck on the apple image and no matter what i do, reset or anything it will not get off. the screen goes off and on with teh apple image and makes a clicky noise
does anyone know how to end this??

When I spoke to the second level technician, when I found out that they wanted to send my Ipod to the engineeers for evaluation of the problem, I asked if my Ipod was the first to have exhibited this problem. The technician laughed and sad "Oh, no, there have been a number before you!" On further searching through several discussion areas, it seems that a number of individuals are having the same problems. My Ipod was stuck from the time it was taken out of the box. I only managed to restart it once and I thought that I had the problem solved when it started downloading songs. However the hard drive started and stopped repeatedly and the unit began to heat up. It became so hot that I raised it from my desktop so that it could be cooled. I left to continue downloading but it failed and a folder with a triangle with an exclamation point appeared with a web site address to view. I do not claim to be an expert but I know that I am not alone in having this issue. I do not know what percentage of hard drive units will fail in general but if you look around this discussion group, you will find a number of similar complaints and we are the first crop of users.

    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IPod Touch stuck at Apple logo

    My iPod Touch 2nd generation is stuck at Apple logo and won't turn on. It won't connect to iTunes either. Help.

    I am having this same issue. My battery died and now when I hook it into the computer Itunes doesnt recognize it and it wont load past the apple logo. I have tried resetting and holding down the buttons but nothing works

  • IPod Touch stuck on Apple Logo Screen

    Today, I spilled some water on my iPod touch, but I dried it up right away. Now, however, the iPod is stuck on the apple logo. I've tried holding down the lock and home buttons and the screen will go black and then the apple logo appears again, but it won't go any farther than that. I plugged it into my computer to restore it, but my computer won't recognize it.
    Did I kill my iPod, or is there anything I can do? It's less than a year old, so it's still under warranty, but is there any point in bringing it in?

    my ipod touch is doing the same thing. it is so frustrating because it is frozen on the apple screen with two lines and won't respond to the computer and sometimes it will go to a screeen we pink vertical lines with the apple screen in the background. i called apple yesterday and they made me wait a day but nothing happened. any advice?

  • IPod is stucked in apple screen and it's not recognized at iTunes, iPod is stucked in apple screen and it's not recognized at iTunes

    I have an iPod Touch 4th generation and a windows7 machine; and it's stucked in apple screen. And it's not reconized in iTunes program. Please, help.

    this just happened to me as well. i've found several other threads here that amount to people with the same problem. the posts are all from this week and no one has goten an answer yet. the phone help amounted to the 'hold the sleep and home buttons' advice that only puts you right where you already are: looking at the 'connect to itunes' picture. then my help guy says 'let me ask a supervisor' and basically hangs up on me.
    this is the second time for me, though, so i already know that if you go into the store they can do the restore there. what i want is advice on how to prevent this without just refusing all future updates.

  • My ipod is stuck on apple screen and restoring it wont work

    have you tried to connect the device in recovery mode ?

  • IPod nano stuck on Apple logo; won't boot.

    I have an iPod nano that seems to charge, but won't boot. There's no sad iPod logo or anything, just the Apple logo. I can boot it into diagnostics mode, and it seems to be fine. However, it won't go into disc mode.
    Any advice?

    This tread (http://www.thestudentroom.co.uk/showthread.php?t=723183) is about the same problem you're having. At some point it's said:
    "Hold down Select / Menu (to reboot the iPod)
    As soon as the Apple logo appears, hold down Rewind / Select until...
    ...you see a backwards Apple Logo.
    At this point, you will have entered Diagnostic Mode. It'll test the RAM, and then tell you to HIT PLAY TO CONTINUE. Hit 'Play'.
    You'll be in a menu that you advance by hitting FF (Fast Forward). Advance to the 'DISKMODE' entry.
    Hit 'Select.' This will put you into Firewire Disk mode. The screen should change to the familiar 'Do Not Disconnect' mode. At this point, connect it to the computer.
    Run the restore utility; it should now recognize the iPod and offer to Restore the factory software. Do so. You'll lose whatever's on it, but you'll avoid having to send it back in to Apple and paying repair fee."

  • My iPod is stuck on apple logo and I get a 1434 Error when trying to restore it.

    Hello, I hope somebody can help me. I have a 120 gb ipod classic (6th generation). I purchased it a long time ago. It was working fine for a few years and then suddenly it's been stuck on the apple logo ever since.
    I tried to restore it by putting in on disk mode and connecting it to my Mac. My iTunes recognizes the device (But my Mac doesn't!). On iTunes, I tried to restore it, but I get an error message 1434, stating that the restoration could not be completed.
    I read that I should try to erase the drive with Disk Utility, but when I get there, the button to erase the drive is unclickable. I tried to partition as well, but it also did not work (maybe I am doing it wrong? Could somebody direct me with better instructions?)
    I'm wondering if the hard drive is dying, or if I have a bad ribbon, or if the logic board itself is broken. Not sure what method of action I should take. I can't even get into the diagnostic screen.
    PLEASE HELP!

    Hello E1777,
    You can try this link to download iTunes from the Apple website. It should resolve the issue for you.
    iTunes 11.0.4

  • Ipod Nano Stuck on Apple Logo

    My Ipod Nano seems to be stuck on the apple logo. I tried a hard reset and it did nothing and itunes isn't recognizing it. When a similar thing happend to my Ipod Touch i was able to boot into recovery mode and restore a backup. Does Ipod Nano have the same mode?

    Hello Elektra2009,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    I am no guru when it comes to iPod touches, but I do know that nano has no feature like that. However, if you have already tried a hard reset, I would try manually putting the iPod into [Disk Mode|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1363]. If you can do that, and get iTunes to recognize it, I think it would be an excellent idea to restore as well.
    Hope this helps.

  • Ipod 5 stuck on apple logo screen

    last night(about 22 hours ago) i tried to update my ipod 5 to ios 8.2 I clicked the install button and then left my ipod on my desk charging. I came back about an hour later and it was stuck on the apple logo screen but with no progress bar. Every minute or so so about 10 minutes it started to glitch out and shut down right when the lock screen would show up. It has been on the apple logo screen since then and i just got back from school to find it stuck. Occasionally it will get a little dimmer, but about a minute later it will be bright again.
