Ipod touch 4gen not responding. Apple logo just coming on

Bought a used ipod and I can't get it to do anything. When you turn it on, the Apple logo just comes on for a few seconds and then turns off for a few seconds and keeps doing that. Not responding to any of the buttons. Tried to restore it through itunes on the computed, but it's still doing the same thing. Help!

Try:
- 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.

    my ipod touch is not responding. It wont turn on. I have plugged it to the wall charger and its not receiving a signal. I have plugged to my itunes and its not sending a signal to my computer. what could be wrong?

    Did you check the USB cable or try another one?
    Did you check the docking port for any kind of debris or lint?
    Did you already try to reset your device by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again?

  • FYI Ipod Touch and Stuck on Apple Logo

    I have found an issue where removing an application from the Ipod Touch which uses the Apple Ipod Settings GUI (The Icon with the picture of the gears) could cause your ipod to stick at the Apple Logo and force you to do a restore.
    I had an application which I removed and noticed that I could no longer get fully into the Apple Settings GUI. It would freeze (it would never completely draw all the entries for the settings interface) for about 30 seconds and then take me back to the main interface. I thought I should restart the Ipod Touch and maybe that would clear up the issue. WRONG! I had to do a full restore in order to get back where I was. That took 6 hours.
    Once I was back this time I tried to remove that application again and noticed the same issue. I opened the App Store on the Ipod Touch and searched for the application. I re-downloaded it and it installed. I was able to get back into settings and also restart with no issues.
    In short, if you remove an application that has hooks into the Apple Settings interface. Always go into the settings after to verify you can still access it. If not reinstall the application and verify it works. Then report it to the developer.
    I did contact the developer of the software and he said he would submit a bug report to Apple on this. I do not need to specify the dev at this time. I will just say be careful before you restart.

  • Ipod Touch 4Gen not showing up in Computer in Windows 7

    Hi,
    I just reinstalled my Ipod Touch 4Gen and also have reinstalled Itunes on my Windows 7 computer. I had a problem having Itunes to show my Ipod Touch, so I contacted apple support and they have help me, but when I go to the Computer folder in Windows 7, I don't see my Ipod Touch as one of the devices there when I connect it my computer. My Ipod Touch would show up there before, so what can I do to fix this?
    Thank you.

  • Ipod touch is stuck on apple logo

    i pod touch is stuck on apple logo.  power/home doesn't do anything.  not recognized on computer or itunes.  what now?

    Make sure you are holding power/home button for at least 15-sec. If that does not work, let the unit go dead. Then recharge it and retroubleshoot it.
