- 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 another cable
- 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 laptop shutdown while my Ipod was updating software. It is frozen with the apple logo & the loading bar below. When I turned my laptop back on, it will not recognize my Ipod. This means I cannot even try restoring it. I have unplugged & plugged back in & tried holding the buttons on the Ipod for 10 seconds. I'm not sure what to do! Help please!

I have reset my ipod touch 3rd generation and after doing so it is frozen with an apple in the middle of the screen and i have already tried the apple support page steps and still doesnt fix it, please help me out

The warranty does not cover accidental damage like that cased by dropping the iPod. However, Apple has known to make acceptions. Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Otherwise Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $99

Ipod Touch frozen at apple logo screen

I try to turn on or reset my ipod and the apple logo appears and nothing happens. The ipod is not being recognized by itunes either? Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks,

I have now had this freeze problem on two iPhone 3G's and now my iPod Touch 32 GB.
Here is what you have to do.
Plug your Touch into your computer via the USB cable
Now press both the top switch (sleep/wake) button and the home button at the same time. Hold these two buttons down until the iPod Touch powers down and then continue holding both down until the Apple logo reappears (reboot). As soon as the Apple logo reappears let go of the top button and continue holding the home button down for about 10-15 seconds. You will then get a screen that shows a USB cable to be connected to the iPod Touch (it's already connected). Now the iPOd Touch will mount and via iTunes you will get a message to restore.
Restore takes a while so be patient.
This is a huge headache and the worst of it is that if you have an iPhone you lose the use of the phone itself. If you are out and about you cannot restore so you are without a phone!
Hope this works for those of you having problems. Post here if you still have problems.

IPod touch frozen on apple logo?

While running an app on my iPod touch 4th Generation 8GB, the screen froze showing the Apple logo with a small loading circle which isn't moving. It looks like the iOS has crashed on my device. I have tried putting the device into recovery mode (plugging into PC, holding sleep/wake and the home button) but I would appreciate if you could explain how to properly put it into recovery mode! After plugging the device into iTunes, iTunes recognized it. I don't know what to do and I'm completely clueless! Please help! (My iPod touch 4G is running iOS 4.2)

You said "After plugging the device into iTunes, iTunes recognized it." Then just restore via iTunes.
iTunes 10 for Windows: Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
If not successful then try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

IPod touch stays on apple screen after charging

i let my iPod touch go dead and then i plugged it in to charge and all it does is stay on the apple screen. i already tried with the wake and home button thing and nothing work. NEED HELP ASAP.. PLEASE & TAHNK YOU!!

If DFU function won't work, it would be better to restore your iTunes. Just make sure that you will have it backed up every once in a while so you'll have it ready for this type of problem.

IPod Touch Stuck on Apple Screen and iTunes won't recognize

I was resetting my ipod touch to clean it off to give to my sister. I thought it was plugged in, but turns out it was not, so the battery died while it was resetting itself. Now it is stuck on the apple screen. I have tried everything to reboot it and get iTunes to recognize the device, but nothing has worked. I had my computer cleaned, so iTunes is brand new and has never been hooked up to this iPod Touch. I need help please!!

TRy placing the iPod in DFU mode and then restoring. See:

IPod Touch Stuck On Apple Screen After Reset

iPod Touch would not show up in iTunes after being connected to the computer so I went through the online walkthrough of common problems, when I reset the ipod it froze on the apple logo and will not respond at all.
Any solutions?

I was having the exact same problem with my Ipod touch, finally I figured out the problem after having tried all of those troubleshooting links, 1st I went into the start menu then right clicked on My Computer, then clicked manage. Then once I got into computer management I clicked on Device Manager, and at the bottom of the page I clicked the on Universal Serial Bus Controllers, it should say apple Mobil device right underneath, once you get there leave this page open. Open up itunes, connect ipod then hold the on/off switch and home button until itunes asks you to restore your ipod. Click restore, and it may say also say update and restore if so click on it. Then while it tries to restore your ipod click back on computer management and keep an eye on the apple mobil device USB port, you should get a warning that pops up next to the mobil device port, if you do double click on the apple mobil device and click reinstall.
Sorry this is so long and drawn out I hope that it helps.

Ipod Touch frozen between two screens

My ipod keeps switching between the Apple screen and the red battery "connect to power" screen. Even after I've had it plugged into my Macbook for over an hour, it remains unresponsive. Even after I've reset it; how do i fix this?

Reset the ipod.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61705
1. Toggle the hold switch on top of the ipod on and off. Make sure there is not any red or orange showing.
2. Press and hold the center select button and the menu button for about 30 sec or untill you see an apple logo.
This will reboot the ipod and it will come up to the main menu.

Ipod touch frozen on apple logo and thinking circle

Hello. I just purchased an iPod touch from ebay. It is stuck on the apple logo and the thinking circle, and I tried rebooting it by holding the home button or by holding the sleep button. Neither one works.
Help?

I assume that you tried to RESET it and it did not work. It is probably not connecting to iTunes to RESTORE I assume.
At this point I am not sure if putting the device in [*_RECOVERY MOVE_*|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808] and then RESTORING it will work or not or whether you would be able to put the iPod Touch in RECOVERY MODE to move forward. If it doesn't work then I would recommend either taking it to an Apple Store for evaluation or sending back to the ebay seller for a refund.

Ipod Touch frozen - white apple logo on black screen

Today - after downloading a couple updates to Ap's - my touch mysteriously went to a black screen with white apple logo.   I have been searching everywhere for solutions - and theone of holding the home and on-off button for 20seconds gets it to turn off and then come back to the same screen. I can't get it to do anything but this?
I have tried it while connected to my macbook pro and without it connected. I have all the latest software (except I haven't updated to lion yet after bad reviews!).   Help me make this come back to life?
Thanks!
