Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

If you have done the reset and nothing appears and you are sure it still has a charge and it doesn't turn on, you may request for a replacement if it still covered by the warranty. Cheers!

Did you restore as NEW, not using backup at all?

My 2g iPod touch keeps on turning on and off.

It keeps on turning on and off. I have updated it and all the apps to the latest version. I tried restoring it by using iTunes but it keeps turning off when I connect it to the computer.

Hi,
Try a Reset of the iPod... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the iPod Off...
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 10 - 15 Seconds...
Turn the iPod On...
If that does not help... See Here:

IPod 5th Gen keeps turning on and off!! ***

My iPod 5th Gen just keeps turning on and off, I dunno why but it just does!
I just updated the iPod about 10 minutes ago, and it completed then right after it comes up with the Silver Apple logo, then lights up, then shuts down, makes the hard drive clicky sound too. And just does that over and over and over again. I hate it.
I've tried to put it into Disk mode, and Menu+Select and Menu+Play. Nothing works!
What do I do??

im having the same problems but once i get my ipod into disk mode i cant seem to restore it..
You restore it when plugged into your computer and it shows up in iTunes. The restore function is in iTunes. Sometimes you have to force the iPod into disk mode in order to get it to mount and show up in iTunes.

How can i fix my itouch 4th gen when it turns on and off again ?

it keeps on turning on and off.. when the apple logo appears after 10 seconds it will off and on

You can try a reset; a restore to a backup; and then a restore to factory settings. If that does not work, you will need to replace the screen. To attempt to do it yourself, get instructions and link to screen purchase by Googling "replace ipod touch screen." Note that if you are unsuccessful in the DIY, Apple will not do an out-of-warranty exchange for $99 ($199 for a 64gb, 4G) which is one of your other options.

I have an iPod Nano, It dont turn on, and when is conected to the computer or the power, appers the apple logo, then turn off again, the turn on with the apple logo, turn off... infine loop.

I dont know how to restore it. I push the buttoms to restore it, but doesnt work because is in an infinite loop...

Which generation iPod Nano is this? How old is it? It could have a worn out battery. You can make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store to have it checked.

IPod Nano won't turn on and emits a LOUD high pitch SQUEAL

Hello,
I have an old (but great) 1st gen Nano that has been kicked around fora couple years.
Now it won't power on, it's not recognized by my Mac, nothing.
Whenever I plug it in (There is no battery in it), it gives off a loud, high pitched squeal, it's quite horrendous. I unplugged the screen and it still squeals. When I reset it the squeals stop for a second, I can hear it make a click in the headphones like it normally does when working, and then it squeals.
When the screen was smashed in this iPod it did the same thing, but the screen isn't smashed this time.
Thanks,
Tanner.

Leave it charging for at least 2 hours, till the full charge icon comes ON.
Reset the iPod -Press Menu and Center button simultaneous for about 10 secs till the Apple logo comes ON
Refer to this Apple support article on Step 2.(RESET)
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/classic/
Release the button and select your prefered language.
If the above doesn't work then do a disk diagnostic as posted earlier by tt2.

Ipod nano keeps turning on and off

My ipod nano keeps turning off and on automatically and when I push a button once its on then it freezes, and when I reset it then it starts turning on and off again....what do I do someone please help me

Hello Mo0nangel,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
First, try updating the iPod software. Follow the steps in this article:
Updating iPod software
If the problem persists, you may have to restore your iPod:
Restoring iPod to factory settings
Unfortunately, restoring will wipe your nano clean of all songs and photos.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

Why won't my BRAND NEW iPod Nano 7th Generation recognize headphones?

My BRAND NEW iPod Nano 7th Generation (purchased from and Apple Store less than a week ago) will not recognize any headphones. Consequently, I can hear NO sounds. It worked just fine right after I set it up. I turned it off, disconnected headphones that came with the Nano. Several hours later I turned it on again, plugged in the headphones, and then I could hear NOTHING. When I tried the radio, I got the message there was no signal because it said the headphones were not plugged in, which they were. I have tried two other sets of headphones. None work, but they all work in another iPod, so I know it is not the headphones. I restored the software and started over, but this didn't help either. I have pushed the headphone jack in as far as possible. This is very frustating because this Nano was a birthday gift for my husband. I will be grateful for any help. Thanks a lot.

Thanks SO much for the GREAT advice! I did just what you said, and I am back in business. The sound is fine, and the radio works. I cleaned out the jack with a tooth pick, blew some air in, and pushed the jack in a bit harder.I guess I was too tentative about pushing the jack all the way in. You were right that it is a tight fit. Thanks again, deggie. My husband thanks you also! His birthday gift now works! Yay!

IPod Nano 7th Gen Info Voice Over Continually Runs

I bought my Ipod Nano 7th Gen last year and for several months now ive had a issue with the voice over of track information that occurs when holding down the pause/play button on the side of the ipod. The voiceover continues to run and i am unable to stop it, meaning that i have to just turn my device off and leave it. I have tried turning it on and off, the voice continues to run once turned back on, i have reset it, restored it and the voice continues to play over. I find that i have to turn it off and leave it for a while until i can use it again with out the voice over contstantly yelling track information at me. The voice over generally only does this when i am using my headphones and more commonly when i am listening to a podcast, however it still occurs when listening to music. The actually accessbilbity voice over is turned off and i have tried everything i can to stop this from driving me crazy. Is this a glitch in my ipod, should i head to a genius bar or is there some other way of fixing it that i have not come across.
Thank You AnB

Ipod Nano 7th generation touch interface is now screwed with due to apple update.

Hi, I recently purchased a new laptop switching over from a macbook pro 2010 of which the logicboard died. In this newly configured windows 7 64 bit laptop I downloaded the latest itunes. I then connected my ipod nano 7th generation to it and it requested to format it since it was formatted for a mac. I did so and restored my ipod nano 7th generation. After this however my previously perfectly working nano touch interface (swiping, touch to select) is now completely messed up. This has to be due to the formatting and/or the new nano update or itunes update from apple. I can't even swipe to the right or left to move between screen interfaces on my nano anymore. As well the touch icons require double taps and have rectangular white selection boxes over each icon (NOT NORMAL)
Overall I am very displeased and want apple to fix this with either a new firmware nano 7th generation update or apple itunes update for windows 7 64bit. I'm thinking of buying a replacement iphone 4 but now that this issue is prevalent how can I TRUST Apple that nothing wrong will occur with connecting a new iphone 4 to my itunes on a windows 7 64 bit PC.
I am NOT the only one with this issue as you can check out for yourself: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20130727205241AAOmiuC
REASON FOR POSTING THIS HERE: I want more exposure to this issue. I couldn't get access to customer support since my ipod nano 7th generation is over a year old. This is cruel but whatever, Apple does what it wants and I will post this here to do what I want. Gain exposure to this defect that clearly Apple is not addressing since the above link displays a user with the same issue and posted the problem 3 months ago.
DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS APPLE

Hi ImAMinion.
Very good question. I should have explained that part. VoiceOver changes how the navigation functions so it's a little tricky.
From the home screen I got to settings by swiping up and down instead of the normal left and right.
To open settings I first tapped once on the settings icon so that the box appeared around the icon. Then I double tapped the icon to open it.
I repeated the "tap once to get the box then double tap to open" process to navigate through the settings menu. Navigate to: Settings -> General -> Accessibility -> VoiceOver -> set to off. Once it's off the navigation will return to normal.
Hope that helps.
