IPod touch not responding to input

Hi
i have a 16gb ipod touch that was purched in late november all of a sudden it has a hard time responging to any input.
it seams more like a software problem because the problem seams intermintent as if the cpu is busy or something. "slide to unlock" always seams to work but not much else. and somtimes it will be fine and others not. i have tryed restoring it 3 times now with no effect. i have cleaned the screen and do not have any protection film on it..

Try what you have not tried so far. You may have tried all and the Apple store maybe in order.
- 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 iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

2nd gen Ipod Touch not responding

My mother has had this Ipod Touch for several years and it recently stopped working. It has been well taken care of, but it hasn't seen much use for at least a year now. Holding the home button and/or the power button for any length of time does not work at all. Neither does charging it. When I plug it into the computer, a message pops up. "USB Device is not Recognized." I'm wondering if this is just needs to be replaced or if this is something that can be fixed. She's even considering buying a 30 pin usb to see if that'll fix the problem. Any suggestions?

iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
Or
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause
iTunes for Windows: Device Sync Tests

IPod Touch not responding after adding videos/photos

Still have a problem with my iPod.... Works OK with music only. But after having sync videos and some photos, everything worked OK for a while... left the iPod off and next morning could not turn it on ... not even with the reset (pushing wake/sleep + menu button simultaneaously).
Second time this has happened in the last few days.... only alternative is to try restore again via iTunes. Anyone else has had a similar problem? Any help/tips would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hmm interesting. I put mine to sleep. It's been on sleep now for 4 hours with no activity. I just turned it back on, and music playback resunmes where it was. (I have a week 37) I also haven't heard of this specific problem before.
Maybe try taking it to an Apple Store, give the Genious Bar a try, and see what they make of it.
If they can replicate the situation at the store, on your device, they have no reason to not exchange the model for you. Make sure if you do decide to pay Apple a visit, take the box, packaging and receipt with you 'incase' they offer you a refund.

After upgrade firmware my iPod does not respond to touch. Help me!

After upgrade firmware with iTunes my iPod does not respond to touch.
To be more precise - works, but very, very bad. And around the icons on the display is visible GRAY line of width 1 px.
Please HELP me! This iPod - the gift for my girl.
p.s. Maybe this problem arose because I reflash iPod with old cable from the iPhone?

Thanks all, i solved the problem yourself.

Any thoughts?

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

IPod touch not starting up after charging

My iPod battery died on me (normal) and I put it on the charger for the night. It made the battery charging sound and I though everything was fine. The next morning I pulled it off in the morning but did not try to turn it on until a few hours later. The iPod would not respond. It still didn't respond after I plugged it in to another charger and into my computer. I still get no response
