Ipod Touch has been frozen for  a week and a half now and i been turning it off by the sleep and top button.. how do you fix it?

My Ipod Touch has been frozen for almost two weeks now. I have truning it off by useing the sleep and top button and it is still not working. I have been pluging it in my laptop and it is sycning but still did noting. What should I do?

It seems as your iOS Software Is most likely corrupt. Try doing a software restore in iTunes by clicking in your iPod and clicking the Restore button. This will restore your iPod to factory settings. So back up your Music, Videos, and purchases before restoring.

  • Hello. I have recently bought a new iPod Touch 4G, however my iMac says, whenever I try to sync my music or update it that this device isn't eligible. How can I fix this?

    Hello. I have recently bought a new iPod Touch 4G, however my iMac says, whenever I try to sync my music or update it that this device isn't eligible. How can I fix this?

    Try authorize this computer in the store menu in Itunes.  This worked for me. It seems that this is an account problem on iTunes.

  • My laptop recently crashed and is unsalvagable with my itunes library on it.  My ipod touch has all of my music still on it.  Is there a way that I can put the songs on my ipod onto itunes on my new computer??

    My laptop recently crashed and is unsalvageable with my itunes library on it.  My ipod still has all of my music still on it. 
    Is there a way that I can put the songs on my ipod onto itunes on my new computer without loosing them or having to buy them all over again?

    Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your ipod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
    Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your ipod without syncing.
    Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
    When you connect your iPod for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
    Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the ipod for the first time.
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

  • My ipod 4 has apple care for 1 year i just got it can i get a new one because it broke and i pay for the apple care can i get a newe one

    my ipod 4g has the apple care for 1 year can you get a new one for it because something happen to it the mirrer broke yes or no

    AIf the iPod broke because of a defect then yes, Apple will replace the iPod if it is within the warranty period.  A broken/cracked screen is not covered.  However, sometimes if you make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store they will exchange your iPod at no cost if it has a broken/cracked screen.

  • If I connect my iPod Touch to iTunes on my MacBook Pro will it upgrade to iOS 5 automatically or can I refuse the upgrade and sync to iTunes anyway?

    I had my iPod synced with iTunes on my iBook (OS 10.4.11) and then the iBook crashed and I had to replace it with a MacBook Pro (OS 10.6.8).  I want to transfer all of the stuff on my iPod to my iPhone 4S through the MacBook Pro.  But, I do not want to upgrade the iPod iOS (4.1) because my wife will use it with her iMac (OS 10.4.11).  She has no interest in upgrding the iMac OS to support iOS 5.  Can I sync the iPod with iTunes on the MacBooK Pro without upgrading the iOS from 4.1 to 5.?  This will let me go back to the iMac and sync the iPod with it.  I only need to do this once to offload everything on the iPod to the MacBook Pro and then to the iPhone.  I'm very reluctant to try this for fear of ending up with an iPod that won't sync with the iMac.  Thanks for any help you can offer.

    It will never automatically update.  You always will ahev to tell it to update.  it will never update unless you tell it to.
    The pics and music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is itunes purchases.  The ipod is not a backup device.
    Cop everything from your backup copy of your old computer to your new one.

  • My ipod touch (4th) suddenly wont connect to my wifi. Other gadgets are connected though. I tried resetting the network and turning the wifi (and ipod) on and off but it still wont work. Any suggestions on what to do?

    My ipod touch (4th) suddenly wont connect to my wifi. It connected fine before and all of my other electronics (tablets, computers, laptops, gaming systems, etc.) are connected and working completely fine. I tried turning the wifi setting on my ipod on/off as well as the actual ipod itself. I also tried resetting the network settings but neither of these options worked. Any suggestions on what I should do?

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    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
    - 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.

  • HT201263 i tried the "unable to update and restore" for my ipod but it wont stay off when i try to turn it off with the sleep/ home button. what else can i do?

    my ipod touch 4th gen wont turn off and just keeps showing the apple logo. i tried to do the recovery mode stuff on it but it dosent shut off it just keeps restarting. i dont know what else to do. help?

    Let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try the recovery and DFU mode again.
    If still problem that indicates a hardware problem.

  • My new iPod Touch is iOS 6.0.1 but will not update to 6.1.3.  I have attempted the OTA and the iTunes update methods but both are not updating the iOS.  Am I doing something wrong?

    I meant to mention that it is a 16gb 4th gen iPod.

    Yup.  Some unknown error according to the message and an error code that does not list on the Apple support pages.  I am updated on Windows 7, iTunes, and have no other USB devices connected.  I tried to follow any other advice that Apple listed but nothing helped.  The OTA update acts like it is updating and even reboots the device but once it is fully booted, I check and it still says current version 6.0.1 and the check update still shows that 6.1.3 is available.  I am giving up and taking it back to Sam's where I bought it yesterday for a full refund.

  • I can not get the phone to turn back on. My email had been blinking off so I tried turning it off. After holding down top button and bottom button it the apple sign came up then went out as it has before when I have approached it this way. But now no go.

    My phone is dead it will not turn back on after taking a step I have used in the past when I have had issues with the phone. In the past I haeld the top button and the button on the face down and it will turn black then the apple sign comes up then off. I can then turn it back on and it seems to be reset and all is good not so today. It will not turn back on.

    1. Plug phone into AC adaptor and charge for at least 30 minutes
    2. If not on, reset phone: press both home and power buttons for at least 10 seconds, releasing when the Apple logo appears.
    If no reponse to above, there is hardware damage and you need to take it to Apple or whoever provides iPhone service in your country.

  • My iphones turned itself off during the night and I cannot turn it back on - it did not get in touch with watter

    My charged my phone last nigh and used it literally before I went to bed. I woke uo this morning and the phone was off and I cannot turn it back on.
    It was warking perfectly fine last night.
    I have watterproof case on it and always in my handbag, just in case you want to mention that it has to be watter. It is not!

    Remove the phone from its case and try this...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...

  • I too cannot download latest itunes version. Am seeing all of the same error messages. MSVCR80.dll is missing from computer. For windows "Error 7 (Windows error 126) appears. Must be a defect in the lastest software update. How do you get Apple to respond

    I too cannot download latest itunes version. Apple needs to respond and fix what is certainly a software defect. Am seeing all of the same error messages including MSCVR80.dll is missing from computer. For Windows 7 a "Error 7 (Windows errror 126) appears. How do you get Apples's attention. It is impossible to link up with real support from their website?

    Remove old Apple programs, and use Explorer web-browser. (Firefox or Chrome will not do)

  • I have a 2nd generation iPod....I have switch on the OFF position and it will periodically turn on (thus draining the battery) by itself.  How can I fix this?

    I have a 2nd generation iPod shuffle.  Recently, after I turn switch to OFF position, it will turn on (green light flicks on) by itself periodically and obviously battery gets drained.  How can I fix this?

    I don't know of a way to fix an issue with the switch, if it's a hardware issue.  You can try doing a Restore on the shuffle in iTunes, to see if there's some software glitch.
    However, I often leave my shuffle with the power swtich in the ON position.  When you are not playing music, the shuffle goes into a "sleep" mode after about a minute.  You'll notice that you need to press the Play button twice to get it to play again; the first press wakes it up.  In my day-to-day experience, I don't notice any difference in battery life between the shuffle being OFF and ON (and not playing), even if I leave it ON overnight.  And keeping it ON avoids needing to constantly move the tiny swtich, and saves it from wear and tear.
    So, you might try just keeping the power swtich in the ON position, and pausing playback to "turn it OFF."

  • Satellite Pro A has been frozen for a week!

    Last week I logged out of my computer, and it is still trying to log out 2day!!! Its stuck on the blue screen with the word logging off on it, and the mouse thing is still circling like its thinking.
    Ive tried draining the battery, but as soon as I recharge the battery it just resumes to the exact same place.
    Ive tried control alt delete
    But nothing is working!!!!!!!!!!!!
    PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hi
    I think you should check if this issue would appear again after new OS installation.
    Yes, you should reinstall the OS because this would help to find out whats could be wrong. I mean there could be a software or hardware problem.
    After the new OS installation the software problem should not appears
    But if the issue will still persist then a hardware problem could be possible
    and if this issue would be related to the faulty hardware part then the notebook should be checked by an notebook technician in order to find the malfunction
