IPod Touch is not responding

I have a 4th generation iPod Touch. I had it playing through my FM modulater in the car and it started sounding like my music was skipping. After a few minutes it almost sounded like it was playing under water. I thought it was my modulator so I unpluged it. I later tried using a app and it started freezing up and the screen would go black. It was not shutting off just blacking out. Now whenit is working it makes a popping sound. When it freezes up it wont even shut down. Any ideas?

Next try the remaining items of:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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.

    Did you check the USB cable or try another one?
    Did you check the docking port for any kind of debris or lint?
    Did you already try to reset your device by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again?

  • IPod Touch accelerometer not responding, can't detect in iTunes to Restore

    Well here's an odd problem. My 64GB iPod Touch 3rd gen suddenly stopped responding to rotation/movement from the accelerometer.
    The Rotation Lock feature is off. I've toggled this on and off many times. There is no icon in the status bar indicating it is on.
    Everything is stuck in portrait mode. When trying to play a game that relys on the accelerometer the game will also not respond to movements.
    I followed Apple's KB directions and held down the Sleep+Home buttons to hard-reset the iPod, and that seemed to occasionally help, but sometimes the accelerometer still would not respond. I plugged in the iPod, went into iTunes (latest version, 10.1.2) and did a full Restore, erasing and resetting everything to default 4.2.1 firmware. I did not revert to a previous saved backup, so there should be no trace of the previous firmware at all.
    After the Restore, I synced my music and apps back to the iPod, and the accelerometer seemed to work fine. After a while, the screen would not rotate again, and apps using the accelerometer would not respond. Again, I checked that Rotation Lock was off.
    I plug the iPod back into my MBP, hear the "Ding" charging sound from the iPod, but iTunes does not detect it! However, it is listed in System Profiler under USB as "iPod":
    iPod:
    Product ID: 0x1299
    Vendor ID: 0x05ac (Apple Inc.)
    Version: 0.01
    Serial Number: xxxxx
    Speed: Up to 480 Mb/sec
    Manufacturer: Apple Inc.
    Location ID: 0xfa140000
    Current Available (mA): 500
    Current Required (mA): 500
    Extra Operating Current (mA): 500
    To rule out my user account, I used a Guest account, opened iTunes, and it still doesn't detect the iPod, although it still appears in System Profiler.
    Is this some software bug? Is the hardware at fault? I've been out of warranty by about a month now, as I bought it a year ago, so it's kind of frustrating that my iPod would suddenly bug out like this. It's still usable, but it's annoying to be forced to type everything in portrait, and be unable to use app that relys on the accelerometer.

    My money's on an intermittent hardware issue. Replacing the logic board would most likely fix it.

  • My iPod touch is not responding to anything...please help?

    Okay so a week ago I was listening to my ipod touch's app "iheartradio" (ipod touch is 8GB and 2nd generation). The battery was low, and it then died. Later on that night, I went to plug it into my wall charger, and it did not respond. Normally when this happens, I would hold in the home button and the sleep button until the apple logo appeared and then it would charge successfully. When I did this, the apple logo did not appear and it still did not respond (which was weird because it always had before). I then went to plug my ipod into my computer, and itunes or my computer did not recognize it. I have tried hitting it, holding down the home/sleep buttons...I've tried everything I can think of. I have left it charged overnight, and still nothing I am unable to get the apple logo or the shut off option...nothing appears on the screen. I updated to the new version of itunes and once again, nothing I also tried restoring it and nothing is recognized. I currently have my ipod touch plugged into the computer and it does feel pretty warm on the back of the ipod just above where the usb plug goes. I really don;t know what to do. I do not have any warrenty on it since my mom won it from her work a few years ago and then gave it to me. I really wanted to use this during my nursing clinicals since we are allowed to use them for references and I cannot afford another one. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

    Try #2 and #3 in link below. If neither work, you most likely have a hardware issue.

  • Please help, my iPod touch is not responding.

    I just got my new iPod touch, added a few apps on it, and at some stage, it went bright and turned itself off. Trying to to turn it on again pushing top and middle buttons...at some stage, the apple comes on, and then the bright light and off again. When I plug it into iTunes, it says it needs to be restored. I don't want to restore it, I just personalized it ! I don't understand why that happened ? Can somebody tell me what to do? And if I have to resore it at the end, I don't want that to happen again! Thanks!

    I know of no solution but to restore the iPod.  It could be due to a software glitch or a hardware problem. If it keeps recurring even after restoring to factory defaults/new iPod, I would suspect a hardware problem. If that is the cae I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • My iPod touch is not responding to anything! Its frozen on the passcode screen

    My iPod touch is frozen on the 'enter passcode' screen and it wont lock or turn off. i have tried syncing it, charging it, and pressed the home button and off button so many times with nothing. i haven't dropped it ever and it hasn't been near water. I'm so worried about all my information on it will be lost.
