Ipod touch 4g won't start after error 37

Well, thats it. I tried to update and got that error saying that my file(the one I usead to update) may be corrupted. But from then my Ipod touch won't respond.
I've tried to put it in DFU mode in the other mode, all sort of buttons combinations but nothing happens. It's not even recognized by the computer or iTunes. It's dead.
Is there any solution?

Error 20, 21, 34, 37: These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. If you are using a PC, follow this article to resolve this issue.

However, yuo may have a hardware problem since you can't turn it on. I think you tried everything here:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

  • IPod Touch G1 doesn't start after update

    I manually updated a friend's iPod from 1.1.? to 2.2.1 using the "Shift/Options + click Restore" method, but when the update started I briefly got the "Connect to iTunes" picture with a tiny white line across the screen.
    The screen went white and iTunes displayed an error, which translated in English is "UNKNOWN ERROR 1403", and it featured an Help button that took me to a broken link.
    I reset the iPod with Lock+Home, but after the screen went black nothing happened. I tried to use DFU mode but my computer doesn't detect it.
    Here is the debug log. I have removed from it the unused network cards.

    On the original computer, using the correct account the iPod is tied to, purchase and download the update.
    After you have the download then do the install.
    You're making it a two step process since that seems to cut down on problems.

  • IPod touch 3G won't work after falling in water? Help!

    Ok it's been 3 months since my iPod touch fell in the...toilet. I immediately put it in rice after pushing all the buttons. It was only in the water for a second. When I picked it up the screen was dim, flickering, then when black. I wiped it off and put it in rice. I left it in rice for about four days. I finally plugged it up to the charger and after 20 minutes it came on. It told me I needed to plug it up to iTunes so I did. I restored it and when it was restored I tried to slide the bar at the bottom of the screen but it would never register. So I let it die and when I charged it again it wanted me to restore it AGAIN! I've restored it about five times!! Each time the touch screen won't work and it doesn't hold a charge very well. Also every time it does it wants me to restore it. What's wrong with it and how can I fix it? Oh and the home button doesn't work.

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

  • IPod touch 4G won't update, -43 error

    My friend in Estonia has a 4G iPod touch.
    iTunes is telling her an update is available.
    She accepts, it backs up - then she gets a -43 error.
    Any ideas?
    Windows 7, iTunes 10.5.

    Hey!!
    After many failed attempts this is what worked for me:
    Step 1. Right click on your phone in the left hand side bar and select Back Up
    Step 2. Restore your phone and use the option where you restore and update
    Step 3. When its done it will ask you to use the back up you previously completed
    Hopefully this works for you!!!

  • When I try starting my iPod touch, it won't start; the Apple logo comes up for a few seconds, and then, it just shuts off. I tried to charge it through an outlet; the iPod didn't even charge, so I tried to restore my settings on my computer. iTunes won't

    when i try starting my IPod  it won't start, the Apple logo comes up for a few seconds,and then. it just shut off . I tried to charged it through an outlet, the IPod didn't eve charger so I tried to restore my setting in my computer, i tunes won't

    But that requires the computer to see the ipod. I am having the same problem and I keep being told to restore it, but you have to either get the ipod to turn on or have the computer see it in order to so that. Right now I have a pretty useless 32GB ipod touch cos I cant get the thing to turn on! I can only get the apple logo for like maybe 20 seconds and it goes away. Ive charged it for days on a wall charger, on the computer usb charger, and on a speaker charger. Nothing works.

  • 4th gen. iPod touch suddenly won't start up again?

    Hey all, hopefully someone can help me out.
    My iPod was working perfectly up until an hour ago, and for some reason won't start up again. I've looked at the various tips, holding the power button for 10 seconds, but it still won't start up. Help would be greatly appreciated!
    -Mike

    I have the same problem. I bought it 5 months ago, and just used it when I was at home. I take very good care of it. No accidental damage or misuse. But it suddenly can not start up. So I sent my ipod touch to Apple store. To my disappointed, they can not do anything.They do not want to take their responsibility.
    Below is the email they sent to me.
    Thank you for choosing AppleCare Service.
    Your IPOD TOUCH (4TH GENERATION) has been inspected by Apple technicians, who have determined that it has been subjected to accidental damage or misuse, which is not covered by the warranty, the AppleCare Protection Plan, or other Apple repair program. Therefore your original product is being returned to you unrepaired
    So ridiculous and irresponsible
    Hope someone can help me.

  • IPod Touch suddenly won't sync after updating app

    I installed an update for an app and now my ipod touch won't sync. The mac doesn't see it and it doesn't even charge when hooked up. It charges fine with the same cable on a wall charger. My son's ipod is fine, I've restarted the ipod and the mac, I've reset the ipod, i've swapped usb's and cables, no luck. I've tried holding down the lock and power buttons. Its a 32 gig model, SW version 3.1.3. Can I uninstall an app? I suspect its tic tac toe free causing the problem

    Welcome to the discussions,
    you can delete the app on your ipod by touching the icon until it starts to shake, then hit the little cross to delete it.
    Did you try to connect in recovery mode to see if it is recognized by your mac? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • New iPod Touch 16GB won't start

    Hello,
    My new iPod Touch won't power on unless I plug it in via the iPod AC power adapter, and then I only get the "cord -> cd/iTunes" image. The second I pull the plug, the screen goes "black" - meaning it shuts off, but I can still see the outline of the previously mentioned image.
    I've tried all the recommended solutions I could find. Power + Home button sequence, four different cords (I have a few older edition iPods) + the cord for my own iPod Touch (also new - bought together with my girlfriend - mine works, by the way...)
    I would love to reset it via iTunes, but since I can't get it to work without it being plugged in via the AC adapter, that's out of the question. Also tried several USB slots on my computer (those directly tied to the laptop).
    Any help or assistance would be nice.. preferably a solution faster than lightning.

    I've had it on a genuine Apple iPod AC charger for 15-16 hours now, and the instant I unplug it, the screen goes semi-black. Meaning I can still see the outline of the iTunes-connect screen, as it fades away after a few seconds.
    No response when connecting to a computer however. I've gotten one explanation saying that it could be that the Touch is completely drained and that that's why it couldn't get a charge via computer. However, I think I've blown that myth into pieces, no?
    So is it broken? ...from factory? Sweet.

  • Ipod touch 5 won't work after installing IOS 8.2

    I had gotten my Ipod in February from my boyfriend (he bought it brand new from Amazon). Recently, I had tried to install IOS 8.0.2 (the newest one) and I had accidentally shut it down, thinking it would stop the update. Boyfriend told me nothing about not updating it and just waiting. But now it refuses to turn on. there are times when it has the apple logo and it stays for a good 15 seconds but sometimes it will fade away completely. We have tried everything. The Itunes will do the restore thing but then at the end, it will say it can't finish. Help!

    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 another cable                                                       
    - 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 suddenly won't sync after installing iOS 4.0

    I installed the new OS 4.0 and now my ipod touch won't sync. The mac doesn't see it and it doesn't even charge when hooked up. It charges fine with the same cable on a wall charger. My son's ipod is fine, I've restarted the ipod and the mac, I've reset the ipod, i've swapped usb's and cables, no luck. I've tried holding down the lock and power buttons. It's a 32 gig model. My iTunes is version 9.2 (the current version). When I had SW version 3.1.3. I had the same problem with an updated app, but when I updated the app again the problem vanished. I have no way of knowing which app it is or whether its the OS because they all updated at once.

    A couple of things come to mind. If Apple Mobile Device Services is not working properly, your Mac isn't going to see the iPod. You can troubleshoot that problem with some help from this Apple Support article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1747
    The other thing that could be happening is a hard drive permissions problem. Chances are you haven't done this in a long time. Go to Applications > Utilities > Disc Utilities and select your hard drive where iTunes is installed. Check off the Repair Permissions box and hit go.

  • Ipod Touch(4G) won't sync after iOS 5 update

    After I updated to iOS 5 my ipod could no longer sync with my iTunes. When plugged in it will appear on the left of iTunes but the sync button is grayed out and unpressible. I have tried restoring a backup on the ipod, resetting to factory settings, reinstalling iTunes, rebooting computer/ipod, and creating a new library. I have never had a problem like this before. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    I have the same problem and read where one person turned off ICloud.  I do not have I Cloud activated so I went ahead and turned off WiFi.  Now it is syncing.
    It used to not get past Step 1 of Syncing and it would say "Fail to Sync" or something like that.

  • Tried to update to newest version. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes and is stuck on a connection with itunes screen

    I tried to update to newest version via pc. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase so it says, but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes anymore and is stuck on a screen displaying an itunes icon with a usb icon.

    oke i'm not done with the whole thing, but i'm doing that right now. Most of the advice I've already read didn't work and at a certain point it said something about shutting down programs then restart. but i notice that there are some pretty important system things in that list and i don't want to mess up my pc :s i'm not a pc genius... and because i'm dutch and my pc-language is in dutch I often have trouble translating and well... i don't always understand the technical stuff in all the articles -_-
