IPod touch with frozen keys on keyboard

My ipod touch 4th gen. has keyboard issues which prevents me to type in anything

- First reset your 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.
- If still problem, restore the iPod via iTunes. First from backup and if problem persists restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

My Ipod touch is frozen. Shows USB cable with arrow pointing to Itunes. What is the problem? This is the second one I have had that has done this!

My Ipod touch is frozen. The screen shows only USB cable with arrow point to the word Itunes. What is the problem? This is the second touch I have had that has this same problem. HELP!

This time try restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod instead of from backup. You may have some corruption that is causing the problem and it may now be in the backup. If the problem persists after restoring to factory defaults/new iPod. then you likely have a hardware problem and ana ppointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My ipod touch has frozen with a white screen. None of the buttons will work to turn it off or take any action. Holding down buttons for 10 seconds plus does not work.Help

My ipod touch has frozen with a white screen. The on/ff and sleep buttons will not work whether pressed for a moment or held for more than 10 seconds as per help pages. When connected to computer it is not recognised and no indication in "devices".It has been working perfectly from Christmas until now. Was watching a TV prog via BBC iplayer when the image and sound froze for about 5 seconds then just white screen. 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."

TS2771 my ipod touch is frozen with the apple logo on the screen, won't turn off, have already reset it and it still sits the same...logo on screen. Can anyone help me out?

My IPOD TOUCH is frozen with the Apple logo sitting there on the screen. I have already reset the ipod because it was freezing up so I reset it, but now it won't shut off or got o main screen it just sits with the logo on it. I can't turn it off. The screen will also flash as though it will turn off then goes back to the logo screen. Does anyone know what the heck is going on with my IPOD? It's reall frustrating me...ALOT!!!

- Try:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful, let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try again
- If still not successful, time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

IPod touch screen frozen with computer cable and iTunes sign

My iPod touch is frozen with a computer cable and iTunes disc sign on the screen. I have tried to restart it but it has not gone away. Any suggestions as to what it may be or how to fix it?

Called Apple tech help - no freaking use!!! So I read a few posts and amongst others under help in itunes, I ran diagnostics and there was a link when the ipod was not recognized that discussed clearing temp files, etc. I did that, messed with MS Config to disable conflicting programs and some other stuff related to clearing temp files from installation of software. Eventually, I removed all apple software - itunes, helper, bonjour, mobile me etc and reloaded itunes. Did another reboot and this time it worked.
Now, this is the second time I have updated software and each time it it really sucky. I thought Macs were supposed to be better than PC's (;-) well they sure are NOT. I can download and update anything else with no probs but an ipod.
ipod touch is cool as it has internet access but stupid as an MP3 player as there is no radio and no decent equalizer. Sony kisses ipod butt regarding sound quality

My ipod touch is frozen on a screen with the ipod logo and the usb charger cable...i cannot get rid of it...i let the battery die...i held the sleep button and the power buttons..anyone have any ideas?

my ipod touch is frozen... the screen has a picture of the itunes logo and a usb charger. I have held the sleep button and the power button to reset and i have let the battery die and started to recharge...niether worked. any ideas???

Try charing it to 50% at least.
If all else fails, try putting it in DFU mode. Connect it to iTunes, (iTunes may not detect the device, but that's ok) hold the power and home buttons down for 10 seconds, then release the power button but keep holding the home button until it goes into DFU mode. iTunes should detect it and ask for a restore.

See Here for
Frozen or unresponsive iPod touch
The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
Restart.. Reset.. Restore...
Try this First... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the iPod Off... ( if it isn’t already )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
Turn the iPod On...
If that does not help... See Here:

Ipod touch with white non responsive screen. Help

My son's Ipod touch was frozen and we rebooted it but that didn't help so I plugged it in to itunes and it now has a white screen and it wont do anything. Can anyone help with this?

- Try resetting the iPod and then connecting the iPod to your computer. If it appers in iTunes restore the iPod via iTunes on the computer.
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.
- If it did not appear in iTunes, place the iPod in recovery mode and then try to restore the iPod. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

A way to use my old 1G Ipod touch with Icloud?

Can I use an 1G Ipod touch with ICloud if I set up a PC with Itunes 10.6 and then sync the Ipod on that PC? (Currently I do sync the Ipod to a Itunes 10.6 library on the PC but have not set it up it ICloud yet)

We are all fellow users on here and not Apple employees so have freedom in what we say and opinions expressed.
I fully agree that it can be frustrating to have to make replacement decisions when a piece of equipment is working fine. I have an iMac G5 that has been working great since 2005...but the operating system is way out of date, and now the computer is starting to act up so have decided to go ahead and replace it. Also have a MacBook Pro that is great, iPad, iPod, iPhone, PC laptop and Sun Sparc workstation, so your compatibility questions and concerns are very familiar.
If your components are playing nice at this point, keep doing what you are doing, in the engineering world we have an expression, If it ain't broke don't fix it.
As to the iPad, that device can be wonderful or just a toy according to how you decide to use it. It is almost a computer in itself...I say almost because you cannot just download applications other than those in the app store, and some things like word processing are not quite as straight forward as with a computer. But with AirPrint, if you have a compatible printer, you can seemlessly print directly from the iPad.
I carry mine almost all the time, and often on travel do not bother with the MBP. The wealth of apps makes it a very powerful tool. The downside, in addition to not having certain applications I want to use, is the virtual keyboard. It works well, but for my hand size is slow to type on.
Best advice on that score is go to an Apple store or reseller and spend some quality time up close and personal with an iPad and get to know it before purchase. And keep in mind it is very powerful but is not intended to actually replace a laptop in every function.

HT1296 My ipod touch has frozen

My old ipod touch has frozen. The touch screen won't respondand itunes is not recognising or syncing it. The sleep button doesn't work so I can't hold it down with the home button. Is ther any other way I can get it working again?

Try as best you can with the bad button.:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- When it says place the iPod in recovery mode use this program:
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into 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.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My ipod touch is frozen in the start up mode. I've tried to do a hard reset and it didn't work.

My 4th generation ipod touch is frozen in the start up mode. I've tried to do a hare reset on it and the apple comes up then it goes to the next screen with the loading circle and freezes up.

Try connecting the device to your iTunes library in recovery mode and restoring it using the instructions in this Apple support document.
