IPod which will not turn off
My iPod often turns on by itself. Which makes for great fun in the middle of the night but the only way this does not happen if the battery is discharged completely. It is a 20G click wheel. Any ideas on how to fix this?
Turn off the alarm.
Go to extras/clock/alarm and set it to off. Check the calendar also, extras/calendar/alarm.

My ipod nano will not power off. Even the sleep button does not work. I have reset everal times. Any thoughts?
I've been through 4 of those R's, as well as the Quick Fix and about 5 hours on the phone with Apple. It will now turn off, but it is still not visible to iTunes and the iPod updater won't run because it also can't see the iPod. Windows sees it just fine, so now I'm awaiting a 3-5 day response from an Apple engineer about what is wrong. This all started when I installed the 6.0 update. I'm now back to the older software, but it still won't reconize my iPod, so therefore will not update it with new songs, etc.
Thanks for your reply. -
My Ipod touch has not turned off for some time. I reset it. Now, as well, the battery which is charged to 100% and finished with a trickle charge is discharging completely overnight when not in use. Help please, I use this all the time
might want to consider posting in the proper forum. This is the iPhone forum.

My iPod touch will slide to turn off. Please help!
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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.

I was in the middle of the new update and it said there was a error and now my ipod touch will not turn on or off or anything it is just a picture of the apple.
thank you
KristyError 11 is a strange one...if you search the discussions for error 11 you will get a number of hits but none with a real resolution other than getting the iPod to restore, which you have done. And one person indicates this does not appear in the support data base...already found that out.
If you have restored, have a backup and can restore from that, you might try the update again, or wait for the next update whenever that comes out.
Not a very satisfactory answer but if it is working again... -
My ipod will not turn off please help???
Everything works on my ipod, but it will not turn off. It will play and pause but not turn off.
I too have had this problem. In fact it seems to be a fairly common problem, suggesting that it is an unaddressed bug.
Here's what you can try:
1. Reset your iPod by holding down the Menu and Select buttons simultaneously for 5-10 seconds. After your iPod reboots, see if it will turn off. If not:
2. Restore your iPod using iPod Updater, which you can download from http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/ . Restoring your iPod will delete all songs, pictures etc and reload the iPod's operating system. If that doesn't fix it, you can:
3. Try a work-around. Can you turn it off using the Sleep menu option? If you don't see that in the main iPod menu, go to Settings/Main Menu and turn on the Sleep menu option. This didn't work for me, but others have een able to turn their Nanos off this way.
If none of these things work, your only option is to have Apple replace you iPod. You can do this by contacting Apple support, or by going to the Genius Bar at an Apple retail store.
Several people (including me) have seen the not-turning-off problem in conjunction with the Nano frequently showing a message saying that firewire connections are not supported. In my case my Nano became unusable because the firewire message would pop up so often that I couldn't navigate through the menus to get it to play anything. I took my Nano to an Apple store and the Genius Bar guy replaced it on the spot. Unfortunately the replacement also doesn't work (headphone jack doesn't work so I can't hear any music) so I will have to go back again, but don't let my run of bad luck prevent you from getting a replacement. -
Ipod will not turn off, no longer recognized
iPod asked to update to latest software. Upload failed and ipod left in state where it will not turn off, and is no longer recognized in itunes or as a device.
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

After installing iTunes and iPod, my computer will not turn off
I am running Windows XP, and have just installed my new iPod nano and iTunes. Now my computer will not turn off. When I select "Turn off computer" in the start menu, the computer goes through the usual process of shutting down -- then it restarts automatically every time! Once it has started up again, it sends an Error report to windows -- but they are not coming forward with a solution for this problem. It appears as a problem created by an "Unknown device driver". I now have to turn my computer off by the wall. Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
hp Pavilion v50c Windows XPTry running the Combo update first ... OS X Mountain Lion Update v10.8.4 (Combo), and once it is successfully downloaded, then try to download 10.8.5.
Sometimes the combo will correct any minor glitches in the system and also ensure all necessary updates to that point are included. -

IPod will not turn off using click wheel
My 30G iPod won't turn off unless I put it in the universal dock and use the remote. It will not turn off using the click wheel. I've tried resetting the iPod, and also changed the "Settings" back to the factory default, and that didn't make any difference. Is anyone else having this problem?
Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Does the iPod sucessfully reset?
Try resetting the iPod...
Resetting iPod
After it resets, wait about a minute. Now try turning it off.
Also, try activating the sleep timer on the iPod. Does that turn it off? (Go to extras-->clock-->[select a clock]-->sleep)

My daughter was playing on her Ipod Touch when the screen went white. It will not turn off or do anything. Has anyone else had this problem and know what may work?
The same thing just happened to my new ipod today while i was trying to use an app. A lot of people say that it is caused by an ios update, but I let the battery on my ipod drain until it turned off. Once i charged it, it turned on and is working normally again

My ipod 4g has a frozen white screen and will not turn off, any advice?
My daughter's ipod 4th gen (only 4 months old, bought direct from Apple) suddenly has a frozen white screen and will not turn off. We cannot reboot it by pushing and holding the two buttons, even when held up to one full minute. When we plug it into the computer, the computer does not recognise it nor does iTunes, so we can't even do a full system restore. Help! Any suggestions of how we can reset to factory settings without using iTunes please?
