Ipod Touch shows apple then turns off

so here it is, my ipod touch died and so I tried to connect it to the computer Via USB. It showed the apple then shut off and it keeps doing it... It also doesn't show up in "my computer" and a device... Please someone help!!

Let me try to go into more detail.
My Touch is dead. When I turn it on it shows the "connect to charge" screen then turns off. I connect it to my computer and it shows the "thunder bolt" screen. The changes to the Apple as if its trying to turn on then instead of turning on, it shuts off and repeats...
It doesn't even show up as an external device. I tried all those things and didn't work...

    You will have to try putting it in DFU mode and allowing it to update. Once it has begun, you can't stop it.

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    - Next connect to your cmputer and restore the iPod, let the battery fully drain. After charging fro an hur try the reset and restore.

  • IPod touch Generation 3 keeps turning off after taken off of the charger. How can I fix this?

    My iPod touch will not stay on after I take it off the charger. When its on the charger it says it is completely charged. I can do everything on my iPod when its on the charger but as soon as I take it off the charger it turns off. When I try to turn it back on all it shows is the apple for a while and then it turns back off. How do I fix this?

    Try:
    - 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 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. Could be a bad battery

  • My iPod Touch  will not completely turn off or connect to iTunes

    I disconnected my iPod and did what you are supposed to do to turn it off.  The little thing that circles round and round before it turns off all the way will not stop.  It won't turn off no matter what I do.  iTunes says it cannot connect to my iPhone (it is an iPod Touch) and that there is some kind of error.  I went through all of the troubleshooter steps including uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes.  What should I do?  Will it fix itself when the battery finally dies?

    - Have you tried resetting the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Placing the iPod in recovery mode and then restoring the iPod via iTunes? For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    For the future. saying:
    "I went through all of the troubleshooter steps"
    Really provides us with no information since we do not know what steps you are referring to.

  • Why does my ipod touch 5th generation spontaneously turn off

    My iPod touch 5th gen recently did the latest software update, just yesterday. Then this morning, while battery was fully charged, it spontaneously turned off. I had just looked at my email like 2 minutes previously, then when I picked it up again and hit the home butten, nothing. It had turn off and we had to do the reset by holdint the home button and power button at the same time to get it to turn on.  Is this a software update glitch?  It has never done this before. Or is there something wrong with my iPod?

    Things like that just happen some times.  If it recurs
    - 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.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • IPod Touch Theft and Thief Turned off "Find My IPhone"

    My Ipod 5G has been stolen and the thief has turned "Find My IPhone" off. I would be most grateful if someone could help me.

    How do you know it was turned off?
    lost/stolen                                     
    No app on the iOS device is required.                           
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod/iPhone/iPad on the iOS device in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected or cellular data is on and connected for, on a computer browser go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up or continue to show off-line.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iOS device and have the device play a sound via iCloud.
    iCloud: Erase your device
    iCloud: Use Lost Mode
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the device and report to police and carrier if iPhone or cellular iPad
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the erase (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 or later on the device. With iOS 7 or later, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

  • Ipod touch 36gb 4g keeps turning off. Please Help!!!

    A few days ago, my ipod started turning off by itself. Now, I can't get it to turn on at all.I pluged it into Itunes, and it says it needs to restore my ipod. The only problem is, it will delete everything. I had my ipod backed up a while ago, but I am afraid some of my pictures and new apps will be deleted forever. It won't let me back it up or do anything to it except restore it. Also, it keeps saying there isn't enough storage in icloud. PLEASE HELP!!!

    Maybe:
    Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
    Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
    Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

    Then try restoring on another computer.
    Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
