Ipod touch 5thgen stuck on Apple logo after updating to IOS 6.1

I updated my ipod touch to the latest version 6.1 and after updating it restarted and was frozen at the apple logo screen since Monday. I tried calling Apple Support and they went through the steps of getting into recovery mode as well as trying to reboot my ipod touch but I first had to update & restore first through iTunes. I wasn't able to update because my connection kept timing out so I decided to download the ipsw file from this website: http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/
After waiting a whole day for the download(because my internet connection is really slow), iTunes said that the ipod could not be restored because firmware was not compatible. I tried both version 6.0.0 and 6.0.1 and both came with that error notice. I don't know what to do now and I really need some help! I've tried holding the home+lock key many times and went through the whole procedure but nothign seems to work. It already says that my ipod updated to 6.1 but its just stuck at the apple logo. Help me Please!!!

If not successful try the remaining steps of the following:
- 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 stuck on apple logo and isn't recognized by iTunes

    My iPod touch gets stuck on the apple logo and won't let me get to the home screen. I tried plugging it into iTunes but It was not recognized. When I hold the power button down it tells me to charge it. When I do it gets stuck on the apple logo again. Please help!

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • 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 4G Stuck On Apple Logo Screen

    So I just recently jail broke my iPod touch 4G and was using iFile to delete some default apps and stuff that was taking up space on my device.  I only need to use the Music app, so all of the other default apps can be erased.  I must have accidentally deleted something in regards to the music app because I am not able to transfer music onto the device using iTunes.  I turned my iPod off then and turned it back on and this is where the major problem came in.  It's stuck on the Apple Logo screen and will not boot back up or anything.  I have tried putting it in DFU mode and doing every kind of reset or restore and none of that has worked.  Now it doesn't even show up in iTunes.  Unfortunately I don't remember every thing I deleted when using iFile, so I cannot provide much information regarding that.  My iPod has worked perfectly fine until I jail broke it, which I probably shouldn't have even done but none the less if someone has any possible genius solution to my problem, I would appreciate you leaving a comment.  Thanks.

  • Ipod touch is stuck on apple logo except when connect to computer

    I have an Ipod touch 3G 32gb.  When you try to wake the ipod from sleep the home button will not work.  When you push the power button the apple logo will come on for approx. 30 sec and then it will go to a black screen.  Everytime I hit the power button this occurs.  I have done a restore and as long as it is connected to the computer it will boot up.  As soon as I disconnect it and it goes into sleep mode, the cycle starts all over again.  Any suggestions?

    If it is still doing it after a restore, you most likely have a hardware issue.

  • IPod Touch 1G Stuck on Apple Logo

    My iPod Touch 1G (firmware 3.1.3) was acting slow so i decided to use the factory reset erase all data and settings on the iPod and it went through the bar loading and seemed it was working but now it will only show the Apple logo with a weird multicolor thin band above it. iTunes won't recognize it and it wont reset using the lock and home button. I tried holding down home and plugging into iTunes and that didn't work either. I also let it die and it just came up with the same logo and band as before. Please help!!!

  • IPod touch 4g stuck on apple logo with loading circle

    So here is the deal. I found an old iPod after it being lost for 3 years (i thought it was stolen, but it was actually in Texas in a car we sold to my aunt, that's a really long story). Anyways When i tried to charge it, it is stuck on the apple screen with a loading circle. I have reset it by using lock and home button, but that doesn't work. I saw where it says connect to iTunes, but when I try that iTunes wont let me use it because it has a password on it. And i cant get into the iPod to enter the password. Many things say to restore it, but i really don't want to do that because i believe it has pictures of my friend who died in a car wreck. If you can give me any advice on what to do, I will love you forever. THANKS!

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. That is how it works even though it is not how you want it to work.
    iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    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.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
