Ipod touch went blank

after holding the 2 switch to reset my new ipod touch. the ipod is dead.please help

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

Ipod Touch went blank...dead

Charged it overnight as always, but when I woke up it will not turn on. Nothing, even tried to do hard reboot (hold both buttons down for 10 secs) its dead....any ideas?

It's only like 3-4 months old. It cant be something like that. can it? I have read somewhere else that you can do something like plugging it in to your computer, and doing the hard reboot thing, BUT instead you only let go of the power button and keep your finger on the home button, it will then 'wake up' from where ever it went to, i cannot try this at the moment, but has anyone else tried this with theres thats done the same thing?

my ipod touch went dead and has been charging for an hour. screen is blank white, lit up. home screen will not come up. What do I do?

If iTunes recognizes your iPod Touch, then 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.

Why is my ipod touchs screen blank?

how do you mean? does it not turn on? or is it on but nothing booting up?
If it doesn't turn on is it possible that the battery is totally drained? if so, charge it fora while and see if that fixes it. If it doesn't boot up you can try resetting it - hold down the sleep and home keys, past the red power down slider and until you see the silver apple logo come up.
You can also try restoring it with iTunes.
If that doesn't work then you may need to take it into the Apple store and have them take a look at it.

Daughter's IPod Touch went through the washer! Any hope? What to do?

Her new IPod Touch went through the washer. Can anything be done to salvage it?

Do not turn it on. Put it in rice for 1 - 2 weeks. Take it out, and attempt to turn it on. If it says to plug it in, you can jump up and down. Plug it in, and charge it. If it works, yay!
Did you know, if the metal inside was a metal that didn't rust, and no electricity was going through the circut boards, you could wash your iPod as many times as you wanted. Just when you want to use it again, make sure it's dry.

Daughter's iPod touch went through the washer. Do i need to take the back off somehow before I try putting it in rice?

No. Just put it in rice as is.
You may have success in getting it to boot after using the rice technique, but it will sincerely doubtfully never fully function again.

My Ipod touch went black and won't turn on

My Ipod touch went black and won't turn on

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.

Ipod Touch Went Through washing Machine

So my ipod touch went through the wassh but not the dryer. I know, it was really stupid. So, i put my ipodd in a bag of rice for a week and it seemed to absorb all the water out of the screen. The ipod looks like it is in perfect condition.
however, It only turns on if it is plugged in with an old ipod cable, going through firewire. As soon as i unplug it, it turns off. for a while, it connected to my itunes but ever since i reset it, it hasn't. Another problem is when i go to general setting it says i have "No WI-FI"
I don't have extended warranty. is it time to say goodbye to it or is there anything i can do?

Warranty does not cover damage, only defects. Putting it through the wash cycle is not a defect.
Time for a new IPT, most likely. Some credit cards offer damage coverage, perhaps home owners/renters insurance (although the deductible is likely higher than the value of the IPT).

TS1538 iPod Touch with blank screen that doesn't shut off and not recognized by iTunes?

I opened the app "MyTown 2", and it stayed on the opening screen for about 5 minutes - WAYYY too long! So I tried to close the app. A slight grayscale sort of film "slid" down over the opening screen, and then it went to this light gray, completely blank screen. It's been that way for over an hour - no matter what I do, can't do a hard shut down, and the device is not recognized by iTunes at all. It's completely DEAD!!!! Is there any hope? Anyone have a clue?

Following the instructions in this procedure to the letter. Here they are, with emphasis on some easily overlooked requirements:
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPod Touch, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.If you cannot turn off the device using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the device turns off, release only the Sleep/Wake button.
Continue pressing and holding the Home button while you reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.Note: If you see the "low battery" screen, let the device charge for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has some charge, and then start with step 2 again.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears (iTunes icon and USB connector) release the Home button.
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the "recovery mode" alert ("iTunes has detected a phone in recovery mode").
Use iTunes to restore the device.
If you do not see the "Connect to iTunes" screen, try these steps again. If you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen but the device does not appear in iTunes, see this article and its related links.
Select the device in iTunes and choose "restore from backup".
If you still can't get it to work, you have done all you can and only Apple will be able to help.
