Try:

- 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.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My ipod touch 5th is stuck on the apple logo screen, and won't open.

It was yesterday, when it was low battery. But I was in the car, so I had to wait to get into the house to be able to charge it. Without noticing, that when it never opened.
Although this already happened before, and all I had to do was, to press the home button and the top button together, and then press the volume key and the top bottom.
BUT. The thing is, my home button is broken. D;
I was thinking of resetting it, or something, in the computer, but I can't, due to the iTouch being off, iTouch won't appear in my laptop).
Please help me, there are very meaningful things to me in that iTouch.
D;

If the Home button is broken, best thing to do is take it in for repair, or get an estimate. Make a Genius appointment.

My 4th Gen Ipod touch will not get past the apple logo

My 4th Gen Ipod touch will not get past the apple logo (unless the battery is dead, Then it tell me to charge it). Once it gave me the connect to itunes screen. I clicked restore in itunes but the ipod went back to the apple logo before the update download finished. I tried calling apple but my over the phone technical support just expired. PLEASE HELP!

This can be a corrupted software/firmware on your iPod touch. If the recovery mode you did was not forced, then try to force it into recovery mode. This is how:
1. Force it to shut down (note: this sort of shut down should not be preformed unless you are in a situation like this because it is a hardware shutdown and will not attempt to unload software, save unsaved files, safely stop system processes, etc.) to do this, hold down the power/sleep button and home button for about 7 or 10 secs. Also I might be incorrect but I heard that you can just hold down the sleep and home button until the screen goes blank and then immediately let go.
2. Have iTunes running. Hold down the home button and plug the USB cable that came with your iPod into it. Keep on holding on the home button until a picture of a USB cable going into the iTunes logo appears. You are now in a forced recovery mode. (In case your not so tech-savvy forced recovery is the same as a normal recovery mode that an iPod might do if it knows an update or restore failed.)
3. iTunes should have shown a pop-up message about it found a iPod in recovery mode. Click OK, click your iPod from the sidebar and click restore. The iPod will show the apple logo for a while and iTunes will say "preparing iPod for restore" and then "waiting for iPod" this was the longest part of updates for me.
4. iPod will reboot when restore is completed. When I update my iPod it one time showed the apple logo for one whole sync until it showed the slide to unlock screen, so do not worry. P.S if that does not work do a DFU mode restore ( I've been told DFU mode stands for device firmware update mode) I'm running out of room, so google it. Hope this helped ;)

HT201263 my ipod touch refuses to go past the apple logo

my ipod touch refuses to go past the apple logo. i turned it off with both the sleep/wake and home buttons but it immediately turned right back on without me making any attempt to turn it back on. my ipod will not even turn off with the sleep/wake button fyi. i just did an update through itunes with the ipod plugged in and when the update was finished/finishing my ipod went to the apple logo.
update: my ipod flashed white, turned off, then turned back on- yet again the apple logo.

Try the remaining items of:
- 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.

My ipod touch would not go past the apple logo, it would just shut off. i held the power and home keys and connected to itunes

my ipod touch would not go past the apple logo, it would just shut off. i held the power and home keys and connected to itunes but now its on the connect to itunes picture and shuts off on its own. even if i try and shut it off myself it won't. it only stays on for about 3-5 minutes:( please help!!!

When it shows the Connect to iTunes screen and you connect it to iTunes, have you tried restoring it?
This should solve your problem because the most common cause of your issue is a software glitch that is preventing your iPod from completing it's boot sequence. Restoring it will replace the software on the iPod with a fresh set so it can be used again.

I replaced my 2010-2011 iMac internal HD i dont have an install disk i created one with my external HD but when i go to install lion onto my imac it stays at the apple logo screen.HELP ME PLEASE!

Boot from the original Install disc that came with the computer and then format the drive Mac OS Extended (Journaled) using the GUID partition. Then you can re-install OS X. If you no longer have the original media call AppleCare with the serial number of the machine (look on the bottom of the stand) and for a nominal fee they will ship you replacement media.
The chances are very good you will have fan problems if you used an off-the-shelf HD, beginning in 2009 Apple began using HD's from vendors that incorporated heat sensors into the HD. If you did not buy the same type of HD your computer will think the HD is overheating causing the fans to run at full speed.

Frozen on Apple logo screen

I reset my iPod Touch by pressing both the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons. The Apple logo appeared as expected, but the iPod stayed frozen on this screen. Every so often the screen briefly "flashes" (like it's about to change to the welcome screen) but then it returns to the Apple screen.
I tried letting the iPod run out of power until the low battery icon appeared. When I connect it to either a Mac or a power supply, and once it charges up enough, the Apple logo appears again and it is frozen.
The iPod does not show up in iTunes. It is a 32Gb 2nd gen iPod Touch running 3.12 (I think) and has LOTS of applications.
Any help greatly appreciated!

Thank you! The recovery procedure you linked to seems to be working, though it was slightly different for me than on the Apple site.
Specifically, when I held the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons, my iPod would eventually return to the Apple logo screen, rather than turning off. I found that if I held both buttons and waited for the screen to briefly go black, I could release the Sleep Wake button, and connect the iPod to my Mac, while continuing to hold the Home button.
It took a few tries, but eventually I got the iTunes dialog box (about recovery mode) and was then able to restore the iPod to its factory settings.
I am in now the midst of restoring my iPod to its most recent backup, and I'm hopeful that you've solved my problem. Many thanks!!

IPod nano will not connect and the Apple logo screen stays up

Hello,
Earlier today I shut my iPod nano off normally (by holding the pause/play button). Later, when I went to listen to it again, I found it wouldn't turn on. I tried resetting it, and I got the low-battery signal, so I plugged it in. The thing is, the Apple logo screen is illuminated and I cannot get it off that screen, and normally when I plug my iPod in, iTunes comes up. iTunes didn't come up and it says there is nothing plugged in. What should I do?
Windows XP

Okay.
If the Apple logo is not going away and the iPod won't get to the main menu (when not connected to the computer), try what those links suggest.
If your iPod does not get to the main menu or say Do Not Disconnect, it will not be recognized by the computer. You have to get the iPod to say Do Not Disconnect, show the main menu, or just get past the Apple logo before it will be recognized. The above links will help you get the iPod get past the Apple logo.
The iPod cannot be recognized by iTunes or the computer if it is stuck at the Apple logo.
Finally, don't connect the iPod while the iPod preferences in iTunes are open.
