Ipod touch wont completely turn on, Apple logo then change of screen colors.

Ipod touch 4th generation wont even turn on now. I was updating my ipod touch and then the battery died midway through the process. When i oringally started the update my battery was at 5% so i plugged it in to charge as told, but it still ended up dieing in the update process. Now, it wont turn on I just get the apple logo, and then the screen eventually changes colors. I was updating to the newest update that just came out.

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.

How do i fix my ipod touch 4th gen when the apple logo appears and then a whit screen comes up and turns off and it wont charge and it wont connect to itunes

My ipod touch 4th gen is a having a few problems with charging and turning on, my ipod comes up with the extremely low on power symbol and then i put it into my computer and it comes up with the charging symbol then it goes to the apple logo and then onto a blank white screen and then turns off and repeats that process i have tried various things including resetting my ipod trying to connect it to itunes but it doesnt come up with anything so i cant reset it on itunes and have tried various charging devices.

Tried it but it won't do anything all it does is make the screen do a very small flash of white and then continues doing the same thing appearing with apple logo then the white screen and off and keeps repeating that
I'm guessing the white small flash means it's been reset when I hold the 2 buttons down,
Thanks for suggesting.

My ipod 4G wont go past the apple logo when I turn it on - it will stay on the apple logo for few min, then blanks out and back to the apple logo. Tried reset option/troubleshoot several times. Also wont show up on computer at all when I plug in to USB.

Can someone please help with my issue listed - My ipod 4G wont go past the apple logo when I turn it on - it will stay on the apple logo for few min, then blanks out and back to the apple logo.

Any tips are very much appreciated.

Place the iPod Touch into DFU mode. This will be similar to what the factory would do to install the iOS onto new iOS devices.
Placing it into DFU mode will allow you to "format" and install the current iOS for that device.
To place your iOS device into DFU mode.
First connect you iOS device to you computer.
Open iTunes if not already open
Now turn off your iOS device using the power swipe.
Press the home and sleep button on your iOS device for 10 seconds.
Release the sleep button but carry on holding down the home button. For another 10 seconds.
Your iOS device should now be on DFU. Click on restore and iTunes will download the latest iOS for your device.
Hopefully that sorts it if not, you will have to go to a service centre or call Apple Care up and get them to collect it and repair it. (replace it) Or go into an Apple Store.

What happens when you try to connect it to your iTunes library in Recovery Mode? See this article for steps on how to put your iPod Touch into recovery mode. Don't be afraid to try this more than once.

I put my iPod charging, but it wont charge. The Apple logo appears on the screen for five seconds and then it goes off again. Afterwards, it does it again and again and again. I can leave it 1 hour or day charging and it will be doing this the whole time.

IPod Touch 2G 32GB with White Apple Logo and Failed Restore / Recovery

My Specifications:
iPod Touch 32GB 2G
iPhone OS 3.1.3
2.8 Ghz. Intel Core 2 Duo iMac
Mac OS 10.5.8
iTunes 9.0.3 (15)
Problem:
After updating my iPod Touch to OS 3.1.3, my iPod touch started having sync issues where it would say the sync failed. The backup files stopped being created and the latest version was over two weeks old (from prior to the updated to 3.1.3). After an application became unstable and crashed frequently, I tried to do a reboot by holding the Power & Home buttons until the Apple Logo appeared to begin the reboot process. After waiting for 6 hours, the ipod still had not rebooted but was frozen on the White Apple Logo screen.
Troubleshooting Steps I’ve Take:
1. Attempted to follow Apple Frozen iPod Touch and Common Issue Troubleshooting Guide. The iPod will not shut down using the Power Slider function.
2. Restore via iTunes using the DFU Restore Function (Power Button & Home Button for 10 seconds, releasing the Power Button, followed by plugging in the USB cable while holding the Home Button down). iTunes recognized the ipod at the point and began the restore process. The process took almost 32 hours and when it was completed, the ipod would not boot up by remained with the White Apple Logo. My original attempt was with using a powered USB hub.
3. Repeated the restore process but by plugging directly into the computer and eliminating all USB devices except keyboard and mouse. Deleted the OS 3.1.3 updated and made iTunes download the file in case it was corrupted.
4. Rebooted computer between each attempt.
5. Deleted iTunes and the Apple Mobile Device Services as per Apple Article HT1747. Rebooted the computer and reinstalled iTunes. iTune would not recognized the iPod Touch to do a restore using the DFU method. I’ve retried various timings and versions with the cable plugin, booting with the cable plug in and not plugged in, etc... No effect.
6. Repeated the above steps on a MacBook Pro running OS 10.6. iTunes wouldn’t recognize the iPod.
7. Repeated the above steps using a different sync cable. iTunes wouldn’t recognize the ipod.
8. Unplugged the iPod and let it completely drain until the screen went blank for 1 day. When pressing home button the Low Battery / Plug In warning appears. Recharged the battery using a wall plug for 12 hours. Retried the above steps. No change.
What I’ve Eliminated As The Problem Via My Troubleshooting:
1. Computer Hardware
2. iTunes Software
3. Sync Cable
4. USB Conflicts
What I Need Is A Solution:
1. Completely wiping my ipod is an acceptable solution at this point. I’ve spent a week working on this and wasted way too much time. Is my iPod trashed thanks to an OS update?
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I've ready each forum posting involved White Apple Logo Issues and have come up empty. Am I the only persons would is having trouble restoring?
Thank you,
Paul

More Troubleshooting Steps For Your Consideration:
I was able to restore back to iPhone OS 2 by using a laptop that had not been synced with my ipod touch previously. When I did the DFU with it, iTunes downloaded OS 2 and it worked.
Then I went back to my iMac and proceeded to install OS 3.1.3 and that seemed to work ok too.
I've been getting the white apple logo of death, however, when I try to sync applications. All seems well, but as it is finishing the ipod touch reboots to the White Apple Logo Screen and stays there. iTunes seems oblivious to this taking place.
During my second rebuild starting with OS 2 and then updating to 3.1.3, it worked again. When I tried to add apps, I only put on a dozen. That worked too. I did get the White Apple Logo Screen of Death once again and I did the third sync to get the rest of my apps in place.
I'm on the third rebuild from version 2. I'm going to try to use an old file I have of 3.1.1 instead of 3.1.3. Also, I'm going to add one application per sync. At least this way I might be able to find out if it is a specific app that is causing the problems.
In my further research, it appears that this bug has been in place since the early days of iPhone OS 2.
All told I've spent over week with my computers tied up working on this problem. I think it would have more cost effective to just buy a new iPod. (I'd rather wait for the 4G version this fall!).
Just in case anyone else has been having issues, that is where I'm at. I'll let you know if I figure this issue out in more detail.
Thanks,
Paul

How to fix a frozen ipod touch, it only shows the apple logo?

How do you fix a frozen ipod touch, it only shows the apple logo?

Hello,
I have same broken iPod Touch 4G, I'm stuck on the Apple logo and only what I can do is just restart. If I connect iPod turns on but that's all. I checked a lot of tricks how to restart/reboot device and how to get DFU but I have only the logo. iTunes on my mac can't recognize the device.
And in Apple retail store the guy told me: sorry it's dead. We can fix for about £200. After 1 month when my waranty is finished. Funny isn't it? I can't believe that my lovely iPod is dead after 13 months. Where is the "for quality you have to pay." Is it conspiracy if you don't buy extra waranty we will send you killing signal into your iDevice?
Many thanks for help
