IPod won't turn on, and connecting to iTunes doesn't help.

So yeah, basically my today when I picked up my Ipod, it wouldn't start, I thought that maybe it was just run out of power and plugged it into itunes.
At first itunes didn't even recognize that the iPod was plugged in, and when it did, it told that I would have to restore the iPod from backup, I pressed ok, and proceeded to press the restore button. Now, this is the weird part, because when I pressed the restore button, iTunes told me that I couldn't restore my iPod, and that I had to update iTunes, problem is, my iTunes is up to date .
Also I'm not able to start the Ipod in DFU mode, and it was NOT JAILBROKEN

The first message i get, when i connect the iPod is "iTunes har oppdaget en Iphone i gjennopprettingsmodus. Du må gjenopprette denne iPod-enheten før den kan brukes sammen med iTunes" This roughly translates to "iTunes has detected an iPhone in restorationmode (?). You have to restore this iPod-unit before it can be used with iTunes"
Then when i prees ok (it's the only option), and press the restore button i get this error message "Programmvare for denne iPhone-modellen er ikke tilgjengelig nå. Forsikre deg om at du har den nyeste versjon av iTunes, og prøv igjen." This translates to "The hardware for this iPhone-model is not available right now. Make sure you have the newest version of iTunes and try again."
I'm running iTunes 10.5.3 on a windows 7, 64bit

IPod won't turn on or connect to iTunes

About a week ago my home button on my 5th generation iPod stopped working, so I have been using assistive touch. Tonight I had just updated iTunes on my pc while my iPod was charging through it. I took my iPod off of the charger and was using it online. While I was on it, it randomly turned off. I tried turning it back on, but it never worked so I connected it to iTunes after it was done updating. When I plugged it in nothing came upon my pc screen or my iPod screen. I also tried charging it with my wall charger but nothing came up. I have read about troubleshooting, but seeing as my home button doesn't work, I don't think that is an option. Please help, as I am extremely stressed and do not know what to do.

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 another cable
- 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.

My iPod won't turn on and i've done everything

I was driving and my iPod fell of the dash board and onto the floor, and now it won't turn on. I got an iHome for Christmas and have been using it so I know my iPod is fully charged. I tried connecting it with the USB so I can use it on iTunes and charge it just in case and my computer says it doesn't recognize it. It doesn't appear under devices so I'm unable to restore it.
I've only had it for alittle over a year, what the heck is wrong?

I took it to a Genius Bar yesterday and the iPod was working and today it went to its original state as the day i took it there and they said that it needed to be restored which it did and it was also to be charged for 5 hours, which it did, and they deleted everything in it. A lady blanked it out so it would work and now it doesnt.
when i put it in a charger(wall & Pc) it wont turn on and go to the pic with the apple on it. I tried reseting it and i cant restore it only at APPLE and I cant do it here on my PC.

my ipod won't turn on, when a try to charge and turn on, have a symbol of battery empty. so what can I do?

- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

IPod won't turn on and makes funny noises...

My iPod won't turn on. When I try turning it on it starts making a funny noise, almost like when a cd player tries to read the cd and can't but keeps trying to. Then the apple picture shows up and after a few seconds it goes blank. It is out of warranty and this is a replacement for another one I had that the hard drive crashed on. Sometimes it goes to the "Do not disconnect" screen or the folder and exclamation point screen. How can I get this fixed or is it not worth it? Will Apple replace this one too?

It is pretty easy.I called the customers service for the questions.An officer asked me:"Have you ever put some songs into your Ipod?" "Have you ever safely remove youe Ipod form your computer?" I suddenly realized I sometimes did not remove it safely.
I think you may meet the same problem.What you can do now is to push both the "Wheel" and "Menu",and keep pushing for 6-8 seconds.It will restart,and you will see an apple in the middle of the screen.
If you have any question,you can e-mail me:[email protected]

How to wipe all the data on a broke iPhone 4? it won't turn on or connect to iTunes

Hi there, my iphone4 does not turn on or connect to iTunes since it broke, however it was still working till the battery ran out ( I noticed it was still working because my app was on and the status showed up on my computer as I was online through my iPhone). So I believe that all of my data are still on that phone, it's just not responding to me, I hope that I could get my stuff back somehow, if this is too much to ask, at least I would like to wipe all my personal info before trade it in, any idea? Thanks a lot in advance!

Hopefully this link will help you: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2109

Computer won't turn on and the power cord doesn't light up

My problem with the computer is that it will not turn on. The battery is fully charged, power cord is plugged into a working outlet. I have held down the power button for 10 second or even longer. Nothing turns it on and the power cord doesn't light up at all. Any thing will help.
Thanks

First, check that your AC outlet has power. Second, see this article: Intel-based iMac- What to do if your computer won't turn on and this one Resetting MacBook and MacBook Pro System Management Controller (SMC).
