Ipod touch 5th gen, wont work?

when i took the charger out of my ipod touch 5th gen , the screen went dark and wouldn't respond then it went black and wouldnt turn on. i thought maybe it was dead so i charged it for an hour but nothing came up on the screen it just stayed black. i tried restetting it but nothing comes up
when connected to the computer it doesnt recgonise the device and says 'power surge on hub' ? so i cant fix it that way its only 4 months old and i dont know what is worng with it. it was working fine yesterday until i took the charger out.

Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
- Try another cable. The cable for 5G iPod (lightning connector) seems to be more prone to failure than the older cable. The 'power surge on hub' error is common for a bad cable

Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
Not clear you removed and reinstall ALL Apple software.
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port

My ipod touch 5th gen wont connect to updated itunes but is recognized on my computer, help!

Just brought a new ipod touch 5th gen, and when i connect it with my cable on my windows 8 hp laptop it will recognise it on my laptop in my computer but it won't connect with itunes. I have the latest version of itunes, and have tried reinstalling it three times, along with following the apple help sections but nothing has worked. It connects on other mac, and pc's itunes however and believe it is a problem with windows 8. Anyone having this problem or know how to help? thanks

If you mean playing music from your computer's speakers that that work if you computer can act as a bluetooth receiver (like BT speakers and headphones) since the iPod can transmit music using the A2DP BT profile.
On the iPod go to Settings>General>Reset> Reset Network Settings and try again. You will also have to rejoin all wifi networks

Ipod touch 5th gen wont send or receive texts while connected to specific internet

My iPod touch 5th gen (iOS 8.3) won't send or receive texts from my home internet. iMessage works everywhere else except for at home and I am wondering if anyone else has had a similar problem or if it has more to do with the actual internet connection. Up until a week ago I could send and receive messages but out of nowhere it stopped working. Everyone else's Apple devices (primarily iMessage) in my family work fine but my iPods iMessage won't work.
Safari works and all of my internet required apps work as well excluding iMessage.
If anyone has a solution or advice it would be much appreciated.
I've tried resetting my settings, network settings, signing out of my Apple ID, and making sure I have the correct time and date. I have reset my interent multiple times too.
Thanks.

Sure sounds like that the networks is blocking the ports required by Messages. See:

Ever since my iPod Touch 5th generation died, i was unable to connect to my home wifi. i can connect to any other wifi network but it will not show up on my iPod when i am at home. i have tried resetting network settings, and i even restarted it to factory settings. my iPod still wont connect to home wifi.

Any error messages?

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

If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

Ipod touch 5th gen wont sync when battery is fully charged

1. My ipod touch will sync just fine if it is currently charging (ie on its way to a full battery).
2. If however it gets fully charged and the sync is not complete it will stop the sync cold, eject the ipod, reconnect, and attempt the whole process again (ipod backup, check what needs to be synced, begin syncing).
3. It never gets all the way through the subsequent sync attempts as the battery charge complete indication on the ipod screen comes up periodically and we go back to step 2 every time.
Any suggestions, questions, or concerns about my method or settings I could change would be greatly appreciated?

Reboot coputer
Try another USB port
Try another cable

Ipod touch (5th gen) wont record audio anymore!!.. please help!

Everything on the ipod is working fine as far as I know, but the microphone. I haven't dropped it, its not water damage, just one day out of the blue the audio recording features stopped working.. It recorded the video, but the audio wasn't there.. There's a static noise instead. I made sure my finger wasn't on the microphone itself, and I made sure the volume was on high. And that's about it. I don't know what's wrong with it. Suggestions and/or explanations would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Make sure the mic hole i clear and unobstructed.
Open the Voice Memo app. Do you see movement of the VU meter needle with change in noise level?
- 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

If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem. Other 5G users have reported hardware problems with the mic
