Ipod touch crashed and not turning on

My ipod touch has crashed and not turning on. i tried connecting it with the pc to the itunes but the ipod is not being detected. This is probably the second time the same thing has happened in a month's time. please help.
Thanks in advance.

If you are certain that the device still has battery power, try resetting it (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Slide to Unlock screen displays, you should be all set.
Cheers,

  • My ipod touch crashed and is stuck on the apple icon.I held both buttons to shut off,but it just keeps turning back on.my apple laptop itunes wont reconize the ipod,so I can restore it? what can I do to fix this issue?

    my ipod touch crashed and stays stuck on apple icon..I've held both buttons together to shut it down so many times,but soon as screen goes black,and its off it turns it on again by its self and won't stay off.I can't restore ipod beause itunes on my apple laptop won't sync or reconize ipod.I have the latest version of itunes,what else can I do?My itunes on my other  windows laptop won't either because that says there is no internet connection to itunes,all thought that computer is and works online in everything but itunes.Any ideas anyone would be greatly appreciated!

    Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall for the network problem.
    Also for the original problem try the following if Ana's suggestions does not work
    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

  • I have an iPod touch that will not turn on.

    Hello forums! I have an iPod touch that will not turn on. I have tried everything I can to turn it back on, but I just cant find the right thing.

  • My iPod Touch 5 Will Not Turn On... At All.

    My iPod touch 5 will not turn on.
    It's not that it's dead, nor that I turned it off.
    I left it on, wrapped my earbuds around it, plunged it into my backpack and headed out... In the rain.
    I had an otterbox case on it too.
    I come home, leave it to chill out before using it for about 20 minutes because it's also very cold outside. (15-20 degrees fahrenheit)
    After 20 minutes pass, I need it for something. I try to turn it on, and nothing pops up.
    No apple logo.
    No empty battery photo.
    Nothing.
    I tried plugging it in in a variety of different wall plugs and computers.
    Nothing.
    iTunes doesn't open, iPhoto doesn't, nothing.
    I don't want to reset it completely because I would lose over 1,000 photographs and memories.
    I don't even know HOW I would go about resetting it considering it's not working.
    So much for a "protective" case.
    It was in a backpack, an otterbox case, and I was outside for about 2 minutes in the rain. I'm not sure what to do.

    Plave it is a sealed container with uncooked rice for a couple of days. Then:

    The above my erase the iPod. If you do not have a backup contacting a data recovery company may be in order. Not cheap.

  • My ipod touch 4g will not turn on.

    My ipod touch 4g will not turn on. when I try to turn it on, I get the itunes logo and the usb cable with an arrow pointing up to the itunes lable. I dont know how to fix it. My computer is equipped with itunes and I tried using my computer to fix this problem but it didnt work.

    Restore.  Note that 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.

  • IPhone crashes and not turning back on

    Hi to all of you.
    First I wanna apoligize if I'm posting this in the wrong discution board, I am new here
    So, here's my problem. I have an iPhone 3GS with iOS 4.0.1.  I got the phone last summer, with iOS 3 point something, and I updated it to it's current iOS. I also unlocked it and jailbroke it, because that was the only way i could use it here in Macedonia.
    Anyway, the phone worked perfectly for like a year until a while ago when it started crashing and not turning back on.
    For example, I'm leaving the phone to charge trough the night(as usual), then I'm using it for listening to music for like half an hour on my way to college. Now the interesting thing...the phone crashes after like half an hour of usage time, and that's usualy at over 90% of baterry, or just over 80%.
    Nevermind, the thing is, after it crashes, there is no way you can turn it back on, even though it had, let's say, 87% of battery power. When I try to turn it back on, the apple logo comes out like usual and fades away after a short while. If I continue trying it's gonna be the same thing, or even it's gonna show that red baterry bar telling me that I have to plug the phone to charge. And when I do that, the phone turns back on and it shows that it has like 60% of battery power(***?) or even less than 5%, it depends on the mood of my iPhone -.-
    And if somehow I manage to turn on the phone without plugging it in, when I go to check the usage stats, it says "Usage time will be shown after iPhone is fully charged"
    So, my question is, what should I do? Is it the battery? Should I get a new one, or maybe should I update my iOS?
    I just want to mention that if I update my iOS, I HAVE to unlock the phone if I wanna use it here.
    Sorry if I took you a lot of time explainig my problem.
    Any help will be appreciated

    These are signs of faulty battery. Battery replacement at Apple Store is $80, and you will get perfect working iPhone 4 same as your current iPhone, except it will be working. Make Genius Reservation and take to Apple. Or have battery replaced elsewhere.

    Did you go through [Unable to update or restore|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808]?
    Be sure you turn off all antivirus, spyware, zone alarm, firewall etc. And connect using a different USB hub.
    Hope that helps.

  • Got Ipod touch wet and couldnt turn it off.

    Hi, I accidently got my Ipod touch a little wet (and I mean a little). Problem was I couldnt turn it off as the touch screen wet physcho and I couldnt confirm turn off. So I had to listen to my Ipod touch sizzling and couldnt do a darn thing about it.

    Electronic can behave strangely with liquids depending on what liquids the electronics are exposed to. If the liquid can conduct electricity that can be bad if a power source remains as the liquid will cause a short that can remain permanent if not washed off later. A "dendrite" can form that will act as a lossy wire across the circuits if a voltage potential remain long enough. The dendrite forms only while the circuit is wet. The best bet is always to remove the battery and just let it dry out over a period of time. In the case of the iPods, they all have internal batteries so you cannot remove the power source. If it is plan tap water your iPod will survive based on the purity of the water. The harder the water the worse the problem. If it is a drink, like a soft drink, your iPod is in trouble. The sugars and citric acids are really bad.
    Actually, they used purified distilled water to clean the Printed circuit board in the factory.
    The best way to see if you will live through the liquid is to let the unit dry out in a very dry place. The silica gel or rice idea will help as they dry out the air. Using a hair dryer is not a good idea as the heat can cause other issues.

    Hi cfoose,
    Try the general troubleshooting tips in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1575#faq3
    If the issue persists, the iPod may need hardware repair. Just request repair online, make a reservation to have a Genius at a local Apple retail store take a look at it, or call AppleCare.

  • My ipod touch 4 does not turn on, my PC does not recognize it when I plug it in, and gets hot.

    I have an ipod touch 4 that won't turn on. When I plug it into my PC, my PC does not recognize the device. Finally, when I plug in my ipod touch to charge, my ipod ends up getting hot. Possible solutions please thank you!

    Try the remaining items of the following. The hotness tends to say a hardware problem like maybe a bad battery.
