Ipod stuck on 'apple' screen

Tried reseting, nothing. Plugged it into the computer, but it didn't recognize. Tried plugging into the wall, also nothing. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Any other ideas? If I plug it into the wall it eventually comes on, but when I plug it into the comp itunes says it is corrupted. If I try to update it I get an error. I eject it from the comp but it stays on the do not disconnect screen. Reseting brings back the perpetual 'apple' screen.

IPod stuck at Apple screen and computer won't restore iPod

My 80gb Classic is stuck on the Apple screen, and doesn't respond at all. It says to restore my iPod using iTunes, however, iTunes doesn't recognize my iPod, even though I've updated it.
I've tried restarting my iPod, updating iTunes, and repeated attempts at connecting my iPod. None of the support articles really help, and I've tried all I can think of.

Try forcing the iPod into disk mode first, then connecting it to your computer and see if that makes it show up in iTunes...

3rd Gen iPod Stuck at Apple Screen

Hello,
My 3rd gen iPod is stuck on the Apple screen. It is the screen that comes on when you first turn it on (or reset it). It is stuck on this screen, and each time I reset it (Menu,Play/Pause) it just goes right back to that screen. The hard drive is spinning non-stop. When I plug it into the computer the iPod does not mount, and it does not show up in my System Profiler under FireWire connections.
Did my iPod finally die, or is there anything I can try?

If you haven't tried already, do a hard reset.

Ipod stuck on apple screen after update

I did the update from my ipod touch for the iOS 6.1.something, it finished and reset and is now stuck on the apple logo start up screen. I've reset it using the middle button and the sleep button at the top and it flicks off and back on to the same screen. It won't connect to itunes either. I plug it in and it doesn't pick it up at all on my laptop.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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.

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.

3rd gen iPod stuck at apple logo

hi all,
last week i bought a 15gb 3rd gen iPod from someone.. (with all original accessories and box)
I bought it knowing the battery was shot and bought one the day after i bought the iPod. i havent recieved the battery yet but when i plugged the iPod into my Macbook,the iPod boots to apple screen but stays there..
I can feel the hard drive spinning only when i turn it on.. and after the battery turns off or after a few seconds, i can hear a high pitch whinning sound..
I also thought that even when an iPod battery is dead, it will fully boot or at least say "do not disconnect" when plugged into a computer or ac adapter...
any help?

When you get your battery, it should come with plastic tools to open the iPod. Try disconnecting the current battery and letting the iPod sit for a few minutes. Then, connect it with no battery. Maybe having no power and connecting it will "jump start" it, assuming there is no problem with hard drive.
Note: If you have not previously opened an iPod... Start at the top edge seam; there are no clips there. You usually get a pair of plastic tools. Open a gap (into the metal half) with one tool, at the center of the top edge. Use the other tool starting at that gap and follow the seam to the top right corner, around the corner, and down the right side. Press into the seam as you go. It should pop open along the right side. Open it like a book from the right side. The left side has a delicate ribbon cable connecting the two halves of the case, so don't yank it open on the left side.

The disk utility program has found an error and cannot repair it - Disk Utility is not able to repair the drive it has been booted from. You'll need to restart the computer using another disk - this is one reason why I always travel with an emergency DVD and a bootable external drive. Invalid node structure errors are non-trivial; sometimes Disk Utility will repair them and sometimes not. Disk Warrior has been my second line of defence for disk drive problems for years.

Ipod 4 Stuck on Apple screen

My Ipod 4 is stuck on the apple screen. After about ten minutes, it turned white and went back to the apple screen again and I don't know why. I know you can reset it with the home and power key but does that get rid of everything on the Ipod? How do I fix this and keep all my data?

IPod Touch Stuck on Apple Screen and iTunes won't recognize

I was resetting my ipod touch to clean it off to give to my sister. I thought it was plugged in, but turns out it was not, so the battery died while it was resetting itself. Now it is stuck on the apple screen. I have tried everything to reboot it and get iTunes to recognize the device, but nothing has worked. I had my computer cleaned, so iTunes is brand new and has never been hooked up to this iPod Touch. I need help please!!

TRy placing the iPod in DFU mode and then restoring. See:

IPod Touch 2G 32GB stuck on Apple screen, unable to restore

My iPod Touch froze a few days ago. Powering off/on did nothing (I can't turn off using just the power button, have to use Home as well). Hard reset does nothing - it just sits on the Apple screen, without even a progress bar. I let the battery run out, and have charged it again, with the same results.
I was trying to avoid connecting it to iTunes (a whole other story, basically the laptop with my existing iTunes library bluescreened, I thought I had it all backed up but turns out the apps and backups aren't there, we're working on data recovery) but figured that was my only option to restore. Not sure whether the fact I've never connected this iPod to this PC is a problem, but it is not recognising it at all. Not just in iTunes - it's not even registering as a USB device. I have tried forcing it into Restore mode to get it recognised, but it just goes back to the Apple screen and sits there again.
Any ideas? (It's long out of warranty).

More Troubleshooting Steps For Your Consideration:
I was able to restore back to iPhone OS 2 by using a laptop that had not been synced with my ipod touch previously. When I did the DFU with it, iTunes downloaded OS 2 and it worked.
Then I went back to my iMac and proceeded to install OS 3.1.3 and that seemed to work ok too.
I've been getting the white apple logo of death, however, when I try to sync applications. All seems well, but as it is finishing the ipod touch reboots to the White Apple Logo Screen and stays there. iTunes seems oblivious to this taking place.
During my second rebuild starting with OS 2 and then updating to 3.1.3, it worked again. When I tried to add apps, I only put on a dozen. That worked too. I did get the White Apple Logo Screen of Death once again and I did the third sync to get the rest of my apps in place.
I'm on the third rebuild from version 2. I'm going to try to use an old file I have of 3.1.1 instead of 3.1.3. Also, I'm going to add one application per sync. At least this way I might be able to find out if it is a specific app that is causing the problems.
In my further research, it appears that this bug has been in place since the early days of iPhone OS 2.
All told I've spent over week with my computers tied up working on this problem. I think it would have more cost effective to just buy a new iPod. (I'd rather wait for the 4G version this fall!).
Just in case anyone else has been having issues, that is where I'm at. I'll let you know if I figure this issue out in more detail.
Thanks,
Paul

IPod Stuck on Apple Reset Screen

I had my iPod out with me while I was mowing the lawn the other day and it stopped playing, and when I attempted to reset the iPod, it keeps flashing the Apple screen and there is a clicking sound everytime it resets again. Anyone have any suggestions?

I always try force mounting it. This happened to me, and this little trick worked.
Plug it into your computer, then hold down the middle and play/pause button simultaneously to force mount the iPod. Hopefully it will show up in the computer and iTunes will let you restore it. Good luck!
