IPod Touch will Not Charge/Connect to Computer

So, my iPod Touch 4G running ios 5.1.1 will not charge/connect to iTunes on my computer. It charges everywhere else but not on my computer. I even tried another charger. My computer says all my devices are up to date. But I can't find the 'Apple Driver' someone told me to look for! I have looked at 10+ pages on google but nothing works! Help?

Ipod Touch will not charge or connect to Itune, keeps reverting to apple logo?

My Ipod Touch will not charge or connect to Itunes/computer
Ipod switchs on charge logo appears then switchs to apple logo

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- 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.

Have you tried on another computer to help determine if you have a computer or iPod problem?

HELP!! Ipod touch will not charge or turn on

My ipod touch will not charge or turn on. I think the battery went dead, but now it won't even turn on or charge. My computer does not even recognize that it is plugged in. I have tried to charge it on other devices and get the same result. Can anyone help?

TRY GEORGE GUERRERO'S ANSWER FIRST.
Plug it into the computer for about 15 minutes.
If it starts to turn on after about 15 minutes then unplug it.
As it is turning on hold down BOTH THE POWER AND THE HOME BUTTON on the itouch for 15 seconds, or until it flashes white or just turns back off.
Then RELESE THE POWER BUTTON BUT STILL HOLD DOWN THE HOME BUTTON.
Then plug it back in.
The computer should reconise your ipod.

My ipod touch will not charge or register in itunes. It keeps turning off and then showing the apple logo?

My ipod touch will not charge or register in itunes. It keeps turning off and then shows the apple logo. I have tried holding down the button and plugging it in. It will show the red battery for a second and then turn off? Any other suggestions?

I have checked for problems with the connections, but from what i can see with the naked eye, nothing appears abnormal. It is very strange, and very sudden. It just stopped in the middle of a charge. The apple store is my next step. I just wanted to see if anyone on here had some extremely eye-opening solution or check. thanks though!
I'm also within warranty, so it's not a huge problem.

HT4623 My ipod touch will not sync with my computer and computer says that it is due to an impropper response from ipod.

my ipod touch will not sync with my computer and the computer says that it is due to an impropper response from ipod , what do I do?

Check USB connections
If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
Common errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response”, and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
Use another USB cable.
Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
If you see your error after changing your USB connections, continue to the next section to troubleshoot your hardware.

My ipod touch will not charge, turn on, or appear in itunes, what can i do?

My ipod touch will not charge, turn on, or appear in itunes, what can i do?
When i plug it in to my compuer it shows an empty battery with the charge symbol then after a while it shows the apple logo like it is turning on then nothing happens and it goes back to the battery.

I haven't left it overnight to charge. Is there a difference between letting it charge overnight and an hour or two with no results? The ipod does not even recognize that the cord is attatched.
I left it on my dresser in my bedroom.

My ipod touch will not charge or connect via usb

When i plug in my ipod touch, it only recognizes that it is plugged in for a few seconds at a time. Therefore, it will not charge, and this occurs no matter what cable i use with it, whether i plug it into my computer, or into the wall with an adapter. I also cannot use itunes with it because of this. I have already looked through the forums for other people having the same problem, but most of them just got useless answers such as checking the troubleshooting guide. I would prefer a "REAL" answer to this. To be completely honest, all that the troubleshooting guide tells you is how to do an idiot-check on yourself. I have only had the ipod for a few months, two at the most, so a depleted number of recharges in the battery is highly unlikely, especially since the computer also will not recognize it. An error message comes up saying that it does not recognize the device. Thanks for any help!

Have you tried another docking cable?

My ipod touch will only charge on my computer. What should I do?

I have an iPod touch 3rd generation 32GB with iOS 4.3.3 that will charge and sync on my computer. But if it is plugged into a wall, car, or dock charger it will not charge. I believe it is a software problem because it works on the computer. I have already tried: going into settings>General>Reset> Reset all settings, I did a full restore through iTunes, I have tried out many different chargers, I updated to the latest iOS and still I have had no luck. I'm pretty smart about technological things but I just can't figure this thing out.
Thanks so much for any help!

Try the standard fixes:
- Reset. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod

Ipod touch will not charge or turn on.

My daughter's ipod touch got wet. Now it will not charge. I have set it in rice. And now it has set for a least 2 months. Help????

I've been having a problem like this, and I'm posting this for those looking for a solution like mine, but not finding the same problem and fix.
One day, my Touch would not turn on. I plugged it into the cable connected to the usb port - the same one it always charges with. The low/red battery icon appeared with the little lightning symbol below. It's done that before, fine, but this time, it went straight to the apple icon.
I'd tried everything, but could not find a solution. No one seemed to have my problem. Then I found this today, and it solved my problem: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

Ipod touch will not stay connected to network after trying to use scrabble

I had a new ipod touch and purchased the scrabble app from EA games. I could not log into facebook to load my games onto the app on my touch. The ipod would send me to my home page and disconnect me from the internet. Eventually my ipod would not connect to the network at all. I called Apple and they determined that the ipod was faulty and sent me a new one. Upon receiving the new ipod I downloaded and tried to use Scrabble again not thinking that the problem was the Scrabble app from the get go. Now again my ipod will not stay connected to the network. I have deleted the Scrabble app and reset my network settings and still nothing. It will occasionally connect but I cannot do anything with the ipod. However, it will work when plugged into my computer. I have contacted EA Games with the problem and they have "escalated my issue to their expert team", but I have yet to hear anything back from them. Anyone else having similar issues and know how to resolve this?

Contact the developer/go to their support site if only one app.

My ipod touch will not charge when I use the FM transmitter.

I have a FM ransmitter that will play music when I attach my 3rd generation ipod touch but it will not charge it. But I receive an error message that my ipod doesn't support this device. I use an adapter but it doesn't work. I've used this adapter in the past with other FM transmitters and it would charge my ipod. Thank you.

I have the same problem, my ipod connects to various wifi networs supplying internet to other devices but I cannot use safari... pages connect/ download endlessly. However Map app works fine. Wifi signals strong.
I have reset network setting but all this has done is to wipe all my passwords and networks, and I still cannot connect to the internet. Frustrating!

IPod touch will not charge/recognise charger

Hi,
My iPod touch 4th generation ran out of battery charge a while ago and so it will also not turn on. When I plug it into the charger (genuine Apple charger and cord) it will not charge and no pictures or lights come on to say it is recognizing the charger or charging. I have tried with both a wall charger, and using the USB cord and my MacBook/iTunes - neither way works. I have also tried different USB cords and it doesn't make a difference.
I am unable to 'reset' the iPod touch as there is not battery left on it. And I have blown into the charger port hole and the metal bits do not look bent.
What to do???

Try here:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
An appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store may be in order.
