IPod nano 4g 8gb detected but wont turn on
I have an 8gb nano 4th gen and ive owned it for about two years. I can connect it to the computer and iTunes will detect it in recovery mode but it will not turn on after i have restored it. It just tells me to restore the iPod. I have restored it plenty of times but keeps coming up as the same message and still won't turn on.
Read the iPod nano (5th generation) - User Guide for a possible solution, search through Apple's Knowledge Base for support Articles and/or iPod Nano Support

IPod Nano 6th Gen detected but not recognized
Since recently, my IPod is not being recognized by iTunes (11.1.4.62 ). The error says that it is detected but not be identified properly. I went through all the troubleshooting steps including resetting my ipod, re-starting the driver, re-installing iTunes but nothing works. Interestingly, if iTunes is not open, I can see the iPod as a storage device, I can open and browse it. So I assume there is no error with the wire, the iPod itself or the driver. As soon as iTunes gives the above error, it stops being visible as a storage device. How can I fix this?
Aridra,
Thanks very much for this - I had exactly the same problem; went through the same steps to no avail unitl I read your post. Similarly, I uninstalled EVERYTHING Apple on my PC and re-installed. Bingo !! my iPod is now recognised and synched. -
After MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS of troubleshooting this problem (for days) another poster fixed her problem in a discussion she had started. It immdeiately fixed mine too. Instead of only uninstalling iTunes, uninstall EVERY Apple program on your computer. Go to Control Panel/Add-Remove programs. In the list of programs, click the "Publisher" column at the top to sort by publisher name. Then uninstall ALL of the Apple programs, including Bonjour, Application Support, Apple Applcation Support, etc. (They will all come back when you reinstall iTunes.)
Restart your computer, then reinstall iTunes. Like magic my Nano was repsonding like the good old days. It is happily staying connected and charging right now.
Please pass it on!I have tried everythng on the help page on apple
Doublechecking. Have you also tried a complete uninstall of both iTunes and all the other related software components and then a reinstall? If not, try the instructions from the following document:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 -

- 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.

HT4528 My phone says its charging all the time but wont turn on
My phone says its charging but wont turn I have it plugged in all day long and it just continues to show the low battery on the front! About every 6hours it will turn on for 5 minutes then shut right back off! Idk what's going on please help! All the support things on here want my serial number but obviously I cant get to it since my phone wont turn on!!
Hello Monica121,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
It sounds like the phone will not boot or load up even after being given sufficient time to charge.
I had a couple of recommendations for this issue:
First reset the device with this procedure.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
From: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists after that, then I would try these steps from the iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting article found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Cheers,

My iPhone 5 shows it's charging but wont turn on even with the hard reset and restore. Just keeps showing low battery. HELP PLEASE
I usually sleep with my phone on charge through the night and I haven't had any problem since, I left my iphone 5 charging last night and in the morning it stated 100% charged so I decided to turn the power off normally (Hold the hold button till it says slide to turn power off) I turned it off and suddenly my iphone went straight to low battery. Although I have been having weird battery percentage changes for example it would stay on 1 % for an hour or so or drain really quickly.
I have restored it as i thought was the thing to do all it's doing it restoring and still stating low battery and I have charged it for hours +. I can't hard reset it nor restore it NEED HELP PLEASE.

I updated my Apple Tv and now the light flashes, but wont turn on,I have unplugged and still will not work
Welcome to the Apple Community.
If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
Open iTunes.
Select your Apple TV in the Source list, and then click Restore. -
