Ipod restarting, won't stop

When i disconnected my ipod from my computer, it froze on the ejecting - ok to disconnect. So i rebooted my ipod but it only stays on the apple logo and restarts itself in about 40 seconds. It is also no longer recognized by my computer/itunes. Is there anyway to turn it off without leaving it to run out the batteries? and i still have 10 months of warranty left, but i dont have my receipt, will they still fix it for free?

I had a similar problem after accepting an ipod software update on 1/4/08. The ipod had to restart to complete the update. Mine began the restart, with a progress bar appearing on the screen. After the progress bar was complete my ipod began restarting itself over and over again. White apple logo, then a restart after 20-30 seconds. Wasn't recognized in itunes or by Windows. The ipod kept doing this when I disconnected from the PC, tried connecting to another pc, reconnected to the original pc, and tried plugging in to an electrical outlet. I finally got it to start by following the "put into disk mode" instructions (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651). I had the ipod connected to my computer when I did this, and I did have to press the "select" and "play" buttons immediately once the logo appeared after I pressed the "menu" and "select" buttons. Once in disk mode itunes recognized the ipod. I reset it via itunes and it synched & is working fine now. Hope this helps.

  • New iPod Shuffle won't stop blinking orange

    My new iPod Shuffle has only 3 songs to sync with iTunes but it won't stop blinking orange.

    What do you mean you can't set it up?  Are you trying to connect to iTunes for the first time to set it up and start syncing content over to it?

  • Updating iPod Software--Won't Stop 'Updating'

    I've recently upgraded to iTunes 7.0. After upgrade, iTunes won't recognize my iPod at all. So I restarted the computer, and simultaneously restarted the iPod. At this point, it recognized the iPod, but said that new software was available for my iPod and that I needed to update. I did, and now a pop up is on my computer reading "Updating 'Ben'". (Ben is the name of my iPod). I've done this 3 times now with the same result.
    How can I ensure that iTunes recognizes my iPod each and every time?

    Incidently, I too have tried switching from the USB 2.0 hubs in the front to the rear USB's and nothing is happening. I have followed the iPod for Windows software instructions to:
    "connect iPod to see if it needs formatting"
    when I connect the iPod shuffle the software notices that the "iPod is connected, please wait while the system recognizes the device" and I have even let the program run "waiting for iPod" for HOURS............ and nothing is happening!!

  • IPod Nano won't stop turning on and off

    OK so I tried to sync my iPod to my computer and it told me it was currpt and needed to be restored. It has done this for the last 4 times I have sync'd it and haven't had a problem with it restoring. This time it told me that it could not restore it and since my iPod shows the screen with the Apple on it and shuts on and off on it's own. It will not allow me to sync it anymore nor plug it into the wall socket and charge it. I have no idea what happened or what to do to fix it. Has this happened to you and if so what fixed it?
    I just got this iPod a couple months ago and hav barely used it so I don't want to send it in for repairs and get a different one that is used and ****** looking.

    All,
    I had the same issue on my new Ipod Nano. It works now! I did the following:
    1) Called Apple. Apple told me the next steps.
    2) Toggle the Hold switch 6 to 8 times. I did 10
    3) Press the center button and the PLAY button! Hold for ten seconds
    4) A check mark appears!
    5) Connect to computer and restore your Ipod!
    6) Thank me later!

  • My iPad won't stop restarting itself since it died and i plugged it in, what's wrong with it?

    My iPad died and i plugged it in and now it won't stop restarting itself, it goes apple logo, loading, shut off and then it repeats itself. I thought that maybe the iPad got just enough power to start restarting but then died midway through and that just kept continuously happening.

    Try a reset: Hold down the power and Home buttons together until the Apple logo is displayed, then release. No data or settings are lost.

  • I just got a new Ipod mini and it won't stop reformatting!

    I just got my Ipod mini, and put in the installation disc. I got to the screen where it says to connect your ipod (so i did) and to see if it needs reformatting. well, it did, so I am now waiting for it to stop reformatting so i can finished installing itunes and the rest. it has now been on the same screen for over an hour. is this normal? and if not, what should i do? should i "continue without connecting my ipod" as one checkbox asks?

    If you are stuck in the formatting/Restore process, click on the little 'x' in the top corner. It may take you to the next stage in the process. Sometimes it gets hung up.
    If this doesn’t work:
    - Shut down the computer
    - Disconnect the iPod
    - Restart the computer
    - Run the updater again
    - Connect the iPod when prompted.
    Post back with results, or a bit more detail on where you are in the process.

  • Help...MacBook Restarts and Restarts After update ...won't stop

    Hello, I just ran the Leopard 10.5.1 software update on my MacBook and it restarted and now it just keeps restarting and makes the sound and it won't stop. Does anyone know what's going on?

    That just happened to me. Help. I just did a regular software update, which included a combined operating system update, a QuickTime update and a security update. I restarted after the download as instructed, and now the computer keeps restarting. The little dial keeps spinning and the Apple restart bell goes off, but it never finishes. Then after a few minutes, it restarts itself again.
    I've got a big college project in that computer and it's due Monday. Please someone help.

    Thank you in advance for any replies.

    I do not know if this has any chance of working.
    Hold down the menu button on the iPhone until you get a speaking thing.... Then say, "Stop shuffle(ing)"
    I have no idea if this would work.
