Ipod touch 1st generation fully charged apple logo comes up but freezes before it turns on

i have a 1st generation ipod touch and i borrowed it to a friend for a while. she deleted everything that was on it when she gave it back to me. but now i'm trying to put it back onto my computer and it was dead now when i try to start it the apple logo comes up like it normally would then the wait symbol appears over the logo and it freezes and will not turn on. I tried to put it into dfu mode and it won't go into that either. has anybody else had any experiences with this and fixed them? please let me know. or do you all think i should just retire this one and buy a different ipod?

    - 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 1st Generation stopped charging and sync.

    Hi, I have an iPod Touch 1st Generation that I bought in november 2007(just when it came to the stores) and now, 4 years lates it started to present some problems, first, it stoped to sync with the iTunes, then my computer(mac and PC) stoped reconizing it and now it stoped to charge, as in computer as in the wall. I don't know if it's important but I tryed to install Installer (the old and hacker store with some poor apps) but I coudn't, and an weird app called Zibri's Blog is in it and I can't erase... I can't restart my iPod... actually I can't do ANYTHING! And I love my iPod, I don't want to buy another one now... Is there ANY kind of solution or someone else have ever saw something like this? Pleeeease help me... My e-mail is [email protected]

    After charging the iPod for a couple of hours, place the iPod in DFU moade and they connect to your computer and try to restore via iTunes.

    You may also have a hardware problem like a dead battery.

  • Ipod touch 2nd generation goes from apple logo to low battery symbol when trying to turn it on.  Won't show up in itunes either.  Is it a dead battery? Help please.

    Hi, I have a 2nd Geration iPod touch.  The ipod will NOT go past the apple logo when turning on.  After about three minutes of waiting the screen will go blank.  So, I push the sleep/wake button and the low battery symbol appears, indicating that the ipod is being charged.  After about three minutes the ipod goes to sleep.  Wake up and the red battery shows up again but this time the apple logo appears after about three minutes and stays on for 5 minutes before going to sleep again.  When you wake it up it is on the red battery again. and the process repeats. The battery symbol never increases from the low mark.(no matter how long I charge it.)  It also gets a little bit hot after a while.  The ipod will NOT show up in iTunes either.  Please help thank you.

  • Ipod Touch 2nd Generation stuck on Apple Logo loading up screen.

    I have looked at many posts and nobody has found a solution which suits me.
    My IPod gets stuck on the Apple Logo Loading screen when I turn the IPod on. Many say to reset the IPod, and so I do, and before long it dies, meaning it is unable to complete the reset.
    When I plug it into the computer it dies not long after it stays on the logo screen, but when it is plugged into the wall it will just stay on the apple logo screen for ages. So could it be the IPod itself that isn't working?
    ITunes cannot detect the IPod because the PC cannot detect it, and the reason the PC cannot detect it, is that the IPod has to be loaded and ready.
    So I am running out of ideas, the nearest Apple Store is miles away.
    I had it as a Christmas present this year, so its not that old.
    The Apple Mobile Device service is fully working.
    Any advice would be grateful, thanks!

    If not then I would take it in for repair.

  • IPod Touch 1st generation won't connect to wifi

    I recently purchased a used iPod touch 1st generation and it will recognize the networks but gives error "unable to join network.". I have reset the phone by pressing home and power and have reset the network also.  Turning the phone off and on doesn't work either.  I will show the network but not any information.  Thanks for the help!

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • How do i get my ipod touch 1st generation to work like normal?

  • How do I download the SD version of my HD TV show onto my iPod Touch 1st generation?

    I bought and downloaded the Pilot episode of the Vampire Diaries. However, I found out afterwards that it can't be synced because the iPod Touch 1st generation does not support HD videos. But I read that when you buy an HD video it comes with a SD version. I can't figure out how to get that SD version to show up or be synced. I went on the Purchased pages and unselected the HD versions, but it says that the SD versions have already been downloaded to the computer. I can't find them and can't find any selections to change the HD to SD. Please help me!!

    Hello maxr0,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    I found this article that outlines where to go to download your purchases again in iTunes.
    The article named says it is for iTunes 10, but the steps will work for iTunes 11 as well.
    In iTunes, click iTunes Store (below Store).
    Click the Purchased link in the top-right of the Store home page (below Quick Links).
    In the page that appears, select a category.
    iTunes shows you which of your purchases are available for download. You can view all of your past purchases, or just the ones not currently in your iTunes library. Items already in your library aren’t available for download.
    If you select Music, you can view your purchases by song, artist, or album. If you’re using Album view, click an album to see which songs on it are available for downloading.
    To search for an item, type its name or a keyword in the search field, and then press the Return key to view your search results.
    To download an item, click the Download button to the right of the item.
    From: iTunes 10 for Mac: Download previous purchases from the iTunes Store
              http://support.apple.com/kb/PH1706
    Once you get to the page for your Movies or TV Shows, there should be a checkbox that says Download HD When Available. Uncheck that, and then download your purchase and that should get you the SD version of your video.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • My iPod touch 1st Generation won't turn, charge or appear on my computer

    I have an ipod touch 1st generation that I got about 4 years ago. I don't use it that often because I now have an iPhone but when I went to use it, I found it was dead. It won't charge, turn on or appear on my computer or itunes. I've tried recovery and DFU mode but neither work, since it won't turn on at all. I've tried charging it for almost a whole day but it won't even show me a red battery charging icon. I've tried holding the home and power buttons for several minutes while its plugged in but still nothing. My cord is fine and works with other ipod and i have the newest version of itunes.I have a windows 7 computer. I don't live near enough to an apple store to take it in for them to look at and it's no longer under warrenty and it costs $20 for a one time support session online!! Is there anything i can to fix it without spending too much money or should i just accept its dead and not recovering?

    Try the remaining iTunes of the following. I think you covered all but the last.:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
