IPod Touch 5g won't turn on nor charge!

My iPod touch 5th generation wont charge. I have connected two different lightning cables to the wall and computer, I have pressed and hold the home and power button, It indicates that the cable is connected but nothing happens. I have cleaned the inside of the ipod, still nothing. The iPod it self has not battery what so ever so please dont tell me to reset it and reboot it if the ipod is completely out of juice. Please dont tell me to hold the power and home button and put it into DUF mode if I already did ok? Please let's actually think, understand why it doesnt work, and figure out what to do to solve this problem.

See if anything here helps

  • HT1459 my ipod touch 4s won't turn on, reset, charge, and computer won't recognize it

    i was watching videos with my ipod. After a while i realized that my ipod was almost dead on power so when i was about to charge it, it turned off. i turned on and charged it and then i left it charging. when i came back my ipod was off and now it won't turn on even if i reset it or charge it from my pc. help!

    Try a different power outlet, then try restarting your iPod by holding down the on/off and the home buttons at the same time until you see the Apple logo. 

  • My iPod Touch (3G) won't turn on?

    I've owned my iPod Touch since June 30th, 2010 (a little over a year). I am no longer under the warranty, so I know that if my iPod is broken, I will have to pay. My iPod has been dropped several times, it has cracks in the screen, but the screen hasn't chipped away like others. It's never been dropped in water, so I don't think water is the problem. I'm also positive the headphone jack is broken, as several pairs of working headphones have not worked on it unless a decent amount of pressure is applied. Anyways, back to the major problem. My iPod will not turn on. I'll hold the power and home button, and the apple logo will come up, but it won't take me to the lock screen, it will simply go black again. It won't charge at all, and the only time I can successfully turn it on is when the iPod is "charging". However, the second I unplug it, it goes all black. All help is appreciated!! Thanks!

    Same problem here - Ipod touch 3G won't turn on. I've tried reseting - but absolutely no response and when I try to restore, before it completes the restore, error 1600 comes up. This is my daughter's ipod and we've tried all of this after plugging in to a wall charger overnight and then using a pc and then mac and still nothing. Any suggestions?

    OR use this method
    1. Press-hold the Home button (big circle below the screen)and the Sleep/Wake button (on top of the iPhone) simultaneously.
    2. Continue holding both buttons (Ignore the"Slide to power off") until the iPhone shuts off and begins to restart.
    3.You may let go when you see the silver Applelogo.
    Thats all Folks!!

  • My ipod touch 4g won't turn on, even if i reset it. If i reset it it just brings up the apple logo for about 10-15 minutes, flashes white, then repeats the before mentioned. Has anyone else had this problem and/or know how to fix it?

  • My ipod touch 4th gen wont turn on or charge and is in recovery mode.

    Error 1604
    This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for the error.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
    The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.

  • IPod Touch 1G won't turn on or show in iTunes

    I have an iPod Touch 1G 16GB with firmware version 2.2.1 and it just won't turn on and iTunes thinks it's inexistant. I think it could be in recovery mode but iTunes is ignoring it. Please help so I don't have to buy a new one since this one cost me £380 !!!

    I know this maybe a little too late judging from the date of post, but for those still experiencing this problem, you may want to consider this hard restore method which worked for me.
    Tip courtesy From aarond-sf of sioux falls, sd, Registered: Mar 30, 2009:
    Have you've tried holding down the power button for several seconds?
    If so and you're still getting nothing you may have to do a hard restore.
    here's how to do it on Mac OS:
    1. Connect you're iPod to the computer with the sync cable, and open iTunes.
    2. Hold down the power and home buttons for 10seconds, then release the power button (continue holding the home button for about another 6-8 seconds). iTunes should display a message stating that the iPod is in restore mode and needs to be restored before it can be used (or something to that effect).
    3.Hitting the restore button will likely give an error message. You'll need to hold down option and click the restore button, which will bring up a file browser. Navigate to <your user name>/Library/iTunes/iPod Software Updates/ and choose iPod2,12.2.1_5H11aRestore.ipsw (or similar ipsw file depending on your ipod, or iphone, generally choose the newest one) and click open.
    4. Wait for it to restore, when that's finished you should be able to further restore it using the backup that was generated when you last synced it.
    I have never done this on windoze, but I imagine it's quite similar, just not sure where you'd find the ipsw file.

  • IPod Touch 2G won't turn on or go to restore mode.

    - Hi, my almost-2 year old iPod Touch got very hot and turned off itself like 4 months ago, and now it won't turn on or nothing.
    I tried to prees all the buttons at the same time, home+sleep, trying to get it to DFU and nothing, even the computer doesn't detects it.
    I tried with 5 different cables, a sync-base, wall-chargers, and I'm tired of trying things.
    Can someone help me? I need my iPod so bad.
    Thanks.

    Based on the troubleshooting you performed and the "hot" ipod that atarted the problem, I suspect you have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My Ipod touch 4g won't turn on!!

    Hi, This has happened before, while i was charging it, my iPod slowly turned white, and when i press both the home screen and the on/off button it turned off and went black. The problem is that i can't  turn it back on, no matter what i do. It was so hot, that I can't even touch it without burning myself! A while later, it started to cool off, but it still won't turn on. I tried reseting it but it did not work. This has happened before, but i still had a warranty on it so i took it in to the Apple store and got another one. So I'm hoping it works again so i don't have to bring it in again, but in case it doesn't turn on, will i still get another one because my warranty hasn't expired yet. Keep in mind this will be my third iPod, if i do get another one yikes!

    - Does it make a sound when you connect it to a computer?
    - Have you tried charging it for an hour or so and then try resetting (Home and Power button for 10 seconds or so)
    - Next would be to place it in recovery mode ad then trying to restore. See
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    - Last would be to put it in DFU mode and then they try restoring it.
