    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

    - 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.

    Error 13 and 14: These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
    Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
    Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
    Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
    Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.

    When you restore via iTunes iTunes will download the firmware(ipsw) file. It could be that the microwave damaged the iPod and iTunes does not know what it is.

  • How do I sync "On My iPod touch" notes with and IMAP account?

    I wrote a number of notes in the Notes app before I configured it to sync with an IMAP account. I have added an IMAP acct. to the device and configured that acct. to sync notes. Notes now has an accounts section, and that section lists "On My iPod touch" and the IMAP acct. How do I get the "On My iPod touch" notes sync'd with my IMAP?

    Have you tried restoring the ipod?

    If this fails, then it is likely a hardware problem.

  • IPod Touch cannot restore

    Please help. This week I decided to restore my iPod Touch (not sure of the generation--sorry) because I had inherited the device from my brother, and he had set a restrictions passcode on it a while back, but could not remember it. Anyways, when I connected the touch to my Windows Vista computer, I clicked "restore" in iTunes and it put my touch through an update. Yet after the update was finished the device could no longer be recognized by iTunes, and the computer came up with a window saying it had to install a driver for the new software. I clicked okay and it went on to tell me to insert a disk; and since I do not have a disk I clicked browse the computer manually. However, whenever I directed it to places such as C:\Windows or C:\Windows\System32 the computer could still not locate a driver... and iTunes could not recognize the device. I spent hours searching the web and tried all the suggested solutions to no avail. I updated iTunes, reinstalled it, checked for Windows updates, updated the "Apple Mobile Device USB" under device manager, I've restarted my computer, tried holding down the lock button + home and nothing has worked. But finally, tonight I updated a driver and iTunes finally recognized my iPod touch as being in recovery mode. It alerted me that I had to restore it, so I clicked "restore and update". It went through a long process of "Extracting"... however when it finished an error came up saying "The iPod "iPod" could not be restored. The device cannot be found." I was ready to tear my hair out and finding I was met with another obstacle. I searched and searched for a solution to this error and the only thing I came up with was to restart my computer and open up iTunes again. And after many trials the error did not appear. There was a loading bar that read "Waiting for iPod..." but AGAIN the pesky window came up and said my computer had found new software... blah blah blah needed to install a driver. But I cannot get Vista to find a driver anywhere and my touch has now been stuck in recovery mode for about three days now. I took it into the store today but I was told I needed an appointment (which won't work because I'm leaving on a trip tomorrow). I'd really like to get my touch working again before I go on vacation... and I plan on calling tomorrow morning but if anyone has ever encountered this situation and knows a solution it would be greatly appreciated.

    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:

  • There's no music in my device (ipod touch) after restoring content because of a software issue. music is available in my laptop's cloud though. how do i restore music in my device?

    there's no music in my device (ipod touch) after restoring content because of a software issue. music is available in my laptop's cloud though. how do i restore music in my device?

    hi! an error message showed on my device last week and Apple support  helped me restore the software on my device. Syncing went well and all my apps were available after. However, when I looked at my music in my device, it did not contain anything. The songs were in Itunes on my laptop and when I tried to play them they did not play. But, it says music is available for my account in the cloud. When I switched to the cloud, I was able to play my music already. But everytime I synced, the music from the cloud are not transferred to my device. Most of the music that I have are from other sources. How do I download those again to my device? I tried what I did before which was to copy the song from my laptop then edit paste it to iTunes but this did not work like before when automatically it becomes available on my device.
    pls help. thanks!

  • Ipod touch 2gen Restore Problems

    My ipod will not restore on any computer. I've tried three different computers and it stops at the same phase of the restore process each time. No longer under warranty, but I can't imagine Apple intends their products to die within 3 years. Any suggestions? Closest Apple Store is 90 miles away.

    A couple things you can try before you restore again:
    1- Try a different USB port and/or iPod cable.
    2- Temporarily turn off any firewalls (Windows and/or your router's).
    3- Temporarily disable any anti-virus software.
    4- Put the Touch into recovery mode (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808) before restoring.
    5- If you still have problems, then delete the Touch's OS file from your computer so that when you try restoring again it will download a fresh copy. Your .ipsw OS files are located at:
    PC: C:\Documents and Settings\(account name)\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates
    Mac: Library/iTunes/iPod Software Updates

  • Ipod will not restore after update

    I downloaded the new version to make app. to my ipod touch and I was told to restore my ipod to have the update. Now my Ipod will not restore and I have lost everything in Itunes also. What do I need to do?

    I just did the install of 2.0.02 last and I had one dickens of a time restoring my library. Here is what happened to me. Right before doing the update it tells you that all of your music, videos etc.. will be removed from the Ipod Touch once the update is done installing. So I found a DVD and burned my library to it. Then I went ahead and did the install. It clean my Ipod Touch clean, but my iTunes library was still intact so I thought all will have to do is resync it but that didn't work. I tried and tried. I disconnected my external HD. Oh yeah by the way this is a new computer that I just bought and last night was the first time I used iTunes on it so I had to populate my library using iGadget.
    Anyway, I realized that I didn't have manually manage my iTunes library unchecked I unchecked it and it began to sync the back up copy I had of my library. Did either of you back up your library before installing 2.02? Do you have a place where most of your music is stored outside of iTunes? You cannot have Manually manage library checked it won't restore if you do. Be aware though 96% of my cover art was gone with this restore. How annoying. I don't know if this is the information you were looking for but I hope I have been able to shed some light on the issue.

    I have a new ipod touch and it says choose to set up as a new ipod touch or restore from a backup. If I choose restore from a backup will my old ipod continue to maintain the ability to be synced on my same account?

    Yes. It will not effect your other iPod.
    However. change the name of the newer iPod if necessary to avoid confusion if the second one is named the same as the first
