IPod won't turn on and doesn't respond with any other devices.

I was listening to my iPod nano (5th generation) when the song started to skip. I realized the battery was almost dead, but before I was able to plug it into my dock, it shut off completely. When I eventually plugged it in, it didn't light up or show any signs of charging. So I plugged it into my computer (PC) and it didn't light up and wasn't picked up by the computer. I've tried troubleshooting it, I have the most up to date iTunes and everything, but it still won't turn on. I've left it in my computer for a while to see if it will charge at all and it hasn't. Does anyone know how I can fix my device without having to pay any repair costs?

    This is exactly what has happened with me. I feel so ****** off. Apparently this is pretty common. I am in the works to get a content writer job for one of the most widely read technology blogs, and guess what my first article would be on?

  • I bought an external hard drive for backups to use with Time Machine, but however when I try to connect it with the other windows laptop it doesn't work ? intact it doesn't work on any other device except my MAC ?

    Do not worry about it.
    Time Machine needs that your external drive is formatted in HFS+, or better known as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". This filesystem is used by Apple on Macs and Windows cannot read or write drives formatted with this filesystem, being this the reason why all your devices do not read the external drive except your Mac.
    You can only use your external drive to make Time Machine drives. If you store anything different, you may damage the Time Machine structure, so it is better not to use it as a drive to store other data. Instead, get another external drive to do it or create a second partition on the external drive formatted in FAT32 by using Disk Utility > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU3.html FAT32 can be read by Windows PCs

  • 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?

  • My iPod won't turn on and it makes an eerie beeping noise

    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.
    Its not my Pc its on every charger in the apple store and all my friends house.

    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.
