Ipod touch: doesn't come on when clicked?

I am having difficulty with the activation clicker.  Sometimes it takes 10-15 clicks before it responds when turning on or moving to a new screen.

Try:
Periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory. The 4G only has 256 MB of memory.
- 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.
- Reset all settings      
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:                                                
iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • New ipod touch doesn't turn on when plugged in

    i just bought my ipod touch yesterday. when i plugged it into my imac using the usb cable, it doesn't turn on to show that it's charging like my nano does when it's turned off. i had to turn the touch on before i could see the huge green battery icon. is there something wrong with my ipod touch? i read on other forums that it should 'turn on' to show the battery icon charging when i plug in an ipod that's turned off. i can't find any answers to my question elsewhere.
    please help! thanks so much!

    Try after being connected to a charging source for at least an hour:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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.

  • IPod touch doesn't come with facetime!!!

    I have an iPod touch 4th generation and it didn't come with facetime! I know it was supposed to. I noticed when I first got it. I wanted to make an apple i.d and it asked my age. I put it in and it skipped a lot of steps that I had seen on YouTube. I noticed when on the home screen there was no facetime! I'm so confused!! Please help!!

    Dear, Mc6
    The problem that you are encountering is a very easy fix, let me explain what happened it has nothing to do with how you signed up with apple. All you did was enable parental controls. To fix the problem head over to Settings>General>Restrictions, enter in the password and tap on Disable Restrictions. Unless you want to only enable Facetime and leave the rest of your restrictions, just tap the On, Off switch next to the Facetime option (Third one down)
    Hope This Helps,

  • How come ipod touch doesn't have a radio app?

    I have come to a realization that my current ipod touch, a 64gb 4th generation ipod touch doesn/t have a radio app. unlike my mother's ipod nano which has a radio app. i am confused as why some apple products have radio apps by default and not all apple products have a radio app? it would be handy to have.

    I believe, if I am right, that the headphone jack on the iPod Shuffle is made diffrently. When you plug in the headphones in to an iPod Shuffle, the headphones end up becoming an antenna for the iPod. Thus, why it won't work with out it. The iPod Touch is not made so that the headphones do that.

  • When will the iPod touch 6th gen come out

    When will the iPod touch 6th gen come out

    Apple has not announced any new iPod models, and until they do none of us here, who are all fellow users, will have any idea. In the past, any new models of the iPod touch were announced in the fall, but whether Apple will continue this pattern or indeed if they have plans for any future new iPod touch models at all is unknown. We'll just have to wait and see.
    Regards.

    - 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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I have a new computer. I've installed iTunes. I don't want to lose the calendar and contact data nor the apps currently on my iPod Touch. Will that happen when I sync?

    I have a new computer. I've installed iTunes. I don't want to lose the calendar and contact data nor the apps currently on my iPod Touch. Will that happen when I sync?

    I don't think so. When you open iTunes, go to "Store" on the top and click "Authorize this Computer." Type in your email and pass, and click authorize. Then, when you connect you iPod for the first time, it should tell you "this iPod is synced with another computer, blah blah." It should give you the option to either "Erase and Sync," or "Transfer Purchases." Click "Transfer Purchases and your content should go into your new iTunes.
    If this doesn't work and you still have your old computer there's another thing you can do. I know this works on windows, but I'm not sure how to do it on a Mac, maybe someone can offer some help. Assuming you have Windows, go to Start>Music>iTunes Media and you should see Music, Apps, Movies, etc. This is all the stuff in your iTunes. If you have an external hard drive or your iTunes library is small in terms of file size, you can do this in one go. Transfer the content (as much as you can fit at one time) onto the external storage. Then, put that content on your new computer on the desktop or somewhere where you can find it again. Open iTunes, and folder by folder highlight everything in the folder and drag it into the iTunes library. It should say "importing (content)" or something and then it should be in your library. If you look in your Music folder again, there should now be another "iTunes" folder there with all of your content back in it.
    Hope one if these options works for you. Best of luck!

    The other responder gave you a program that will transfer stuff from your iPod to your new computer.  You can transfer iTunes purchaces to your new computer by:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
    After you move your stuff to your new computer you will have to let iTunes erase your iPod and then sync with the stuff that is now in your iTunes library.  You will loose app data though.

    When my ipod touch is in recovery mode (when I try to re-store it) the itunes page sayes the website has been timed out and so it won't re-store. There is a limited time, whilst restoring the ipod, it lasts for approx 5 mins, then asks to start again all over again. Can anyone please help me?

  • Ipod touch doesn't recognized by itunes password

    My ipod touch doesn't recognized my itunes password, so I am not able to purchase anything from the ipod touch, but I am able to do it through my computer.

    Try going to Settings>Store and sign out and then sign back in.
    This is assuming that your problem is that when you try to make a purchase the PW you enter at the prompt is said to be incorrect.
