Ipod Touch 1st Gen not starting up past the apple logo

When I start it up i see the apple logo for about 15sec then it turns off. I've tried putting it into safe mode by holding the Power and Home button for 30sec but all it does is turn on and off twice then nothing happens.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

Hi,
Would you please share you solution as I'm facing the same with my 1st Gen iPod Touch.
PS: iTunes does not detect the iPod either.
Thanks.

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

    - 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 touch keeps on restarting, never get past the Apple logo

    Hi
    I have a first generation ipod touch.
    Since last week, as soon as I unplug the ipod from my macbook, it keeps on restarting and never get past the apple logo, until the battery empties out. But, when it is connected to my computer, it works just fine. I tried to restore it two times, but the same thing happens. I think it is too late to return it to the store: any idea what I should do with it ? Thanks for your help !

    Hello, Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Is there any reason it is to late to go to the store and return it? Posted below are your service options for your iPod Touch if you are still within your warranty.

    That number is for an apple server in the UK that is used for iMessage activation.  A hidden SMS is snet to that number when you turn iMessage on and is used to verify your phone number.  I suggest you turn iMessage off.  In settings/phone turn on dial assist.  Check with your carrier to see if you can send an international SMS as you end that possibility to activate iMessage.  Rest your phone (Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost).) then turn iMessage back on.

  • IPod Touch 1st Gen Not Charging/Being Reconized

    As the title says, my iPod Touch (1st Gen) will be reconized bu any computer or charge all in itself. I tried plugging it into multiple computers, nothing. I tried plugging it into the wall adapter...still nothing. It doesnt not get the charging symbol when I plug it into either places. The is actually the second time it happend. The first, well my cord was so worn, I guessed it was the cord and replaced it, worked just fine. The replacement happend very recently, like maybe 1-2 months ago. So right now, I would guess it was the cord, but its brand new. I have tried toing both a soft and hard reset of the iPod, nothing worked. If anyone could please help me, it would be highly appreciated.

    - See if placing  the iPod in Recovery mode will allow a restore
    - Next try DFU mode

    Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)

  • IPod Touch 1st gen won't update past 2.2.1 ?

    I have a first generation iPod Touch running iOS version 2.2.1, and the most recent iTunes 9.2.1 running on Windows 7.
    When I click "Check version" on iTunes it says that 2.2.1 is the latest version and that my iPod is up to date. I realize 1st generation iPod Touches are not supported with iOS 4 but I'd like to upgrade to 3.x since more and more apps require that to work.
    Is this a bug in Apple's part or am I not allowed to upgrade to 3.x anymore?

  • IPod Touch (1st Gen) not syncing with iTunes 11.0.4

    I own an iPod touch 1st generation and for some reason it won't sync music properly with the latest version of iTunes. This problem has been going on for about 6 months. I have found some way around it but it involves wiping the iPod entirely and then syncing it with my iTunes. This, however, is a very long process and I want to know if there is a solution. I do understand that this is a very old iPod (c. 2005) but I've had it from new and other than this problem it works perfectly fine and has a decent battery life. I don't really care much for apps I just want to be able to listen to my music on the train without having to fork out for a new iPod or iPhone.

    I would try:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    or
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

Please help as I'm going to b traveling a lot in the car tomorrow and would like to be able to play some games but they need 3.1.

  • My ipod touch 3g won't go off of the apple logo?

    I had my ipod touch (3g) plugged into the wall(charging), I came back to get it and it still wasn't off the apple logo.  Whenever I try and charge it, it won't go off the logo, ergo it ends up dieing. I've tried to push the home and power for long amounts of time. I tried to plug it into the computer, but it won't show up on itunes. When it is charging on the computer the screen will be on the logo for a while, then all of a sudden it will flash white and look as though it is "restarting" itself. I don't know what to do to fix it. I've searched the internet and tried everything but i haven't found anything that works. Please help! Btw it was on iOS 3 idk if that helps.

    Time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. It appears you have a hardware problem.

  • My ipod touch suddenly will do nothing but display the apple logo.

    I did the "push things until the red slide bar happens"...and still, only the Apple logo will appear.  Battery is fully charged, ipod is a year old.  Suggestions?
