IPod won't turn on and gets stuck at the Apple logo

I have an 8gb and i think 3rd gen iPod. I've used the reset function on the general settings then reset all settings and media files. While resetting the iPod got a dead battery. Now it won't open after the Apple logo. Even when I connect it to the computer it only charges for a few minutes then it tries to open but it got stucked again at Apple logo. What should I do. Please help I got this from my friend and I don't want that person to be disappointed. T_T

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 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 iMac 27" from 2009 won't boot up, it gets stucked in the apple Logo..

    last time i used it the screen turned grey and there was a window saying that i should force shut down the computer by holding the power button.. I haven't installed any software lately, and after i force shut down the computer, i left the computer, and when i came back it was stucked in a blue screen.. From that moment it never boot up again, i've tried everything, from safe boot, to resetting pram and still it doesn't boot up. WHAT DO I DO?
    P.S.: i can't take it to the apple store because in my country there is no apple store, i live in venezuela...

    Since it appears that you are running Lion (10.7), have you attempted to boot into the recovery partition?
    If you are able to boot into the recovery partition, there are many ways you can try to try to be able to boot back up.
    You may need to repair the disk permissions, and verify the disk.
    If that does not work, you can also try reinstalling the OS, which would preserve all data. Restoring the OS is done through the recovery partition.
    Best of luck!

  • I tried to un jailbreak my Iphone4, so i went to Generel and clicked the reset settings to factory. My phone will not turn on and is stuck on the Apple logo. I tried putting it into recovery mode and restoring it, but that didn't work either. Help please?

    Please help!

    Nobody here can help you. Discussing jailbreaking is a violation of the forum terms of service. Go to the website that told you how to jailbreak and get the information you need there.

  • TS3274 Every time I charge ipadmini it turns off and I have to force it to turn on.it gets stuck on the apple logo. I have restored 2 times already but nothing seems to work.

    my ipadmini has been having a problem whenever I charge it through the mains. I took it to an authorised reseller and they said it could be an hardware issue.
    After two days I went to check on it and it was able to connect to iTunes and I restored. But this has not fixed the issue. Every time I charge it, it goes off and to put it back on it would not respond unless I  have my finger on home button for a long time. I have changed my USB port and even the adopter.
    I have erased all data and reset it,but same problem again.
    Does someone have a clue on what I should do. Because this is getting ridiculous.
    Please help me.

    The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
    Restart... Reset... Restore from Backup...  Restore as New...
    If you try all these steps and you still have issues... Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...
    Be sure to make an appointment first...

  • I have an iPhone 3g that keeps crashing and getting stuck on the apple logo - how can I fix this?

    will restoring to factory settings help? Can this be rectified by sending the phone back to apple and it being repaired?

    This forum is not staffed by Apple.  It is a dialogue with other iPhone owners.

    Sounds like something internal was damaged in the fall, probably the disk drive. Take to Apple and ask them to fix it.

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

    Otherwise, try connecting in DFU mode.

  • My 4th gen Ipod nano keeps getting stuck on the apple logo.

    My 4th gen Ipod Nano keeps getting stuck on the Apple logo screen, this happens everytime I plug it in to charge. I plug it in, an apple logo comes up, and it stays like that the entire time its plugged in. To get it to unfreeze, i have to press random buttons and unplug and re plug in earbuds. After 20-25min of doing this it unfreezes and I come to find it has gotten little to no charge after being plugged in for hours at a time. Any one else have this problem, and if so what do you do?

    This can be a corrupted software/firmware on your iPod touch. If the recovery mode you did was not forced, then try to force it into recovery mode. This is how:
    1. Force it to shut down (note: this sort of shut down should not be preformed unless you are in a situation like this because it is a hardware shutdown and will not attempt to unload software, save unsaved files, safely stop system processes, etc.) to do this, hold down the power/sleep button and home button for about 7 or 10 secs. Also I might be incorrect but I heard that you can just hold down the sleep and home button until the screen goes blank and then immediately let go.
    2. Have iTunes running. Hold down the home button and plug the USB cable that came with your iPod into it. Keep on holding on the home button until a picture of a USB cable going into the iTunes logo appears. You are now in a forced recovery mode. (In case your not so tech-savvy forced recovery is the same as a normal recovery mode that an iPod might do if it knows an update or restore failed.)
    3. iTunes should have shown a pop-up message about it found a iPod in recovery mode. Click OK, click your iPod from the sidebar and click restore. The iPod will show the apple logo for a while and iTunes will say "preparing iPod for restore" and then "waiting for iPod" this was the longest part of updates for me.
    4. iPod will reboot when restore is completed. When I update my iPod it one time showed the apple logo for one whole sync until it showed the slide to unlock screen, so do not worry. P.S if that does not work do a DFU mode restore ( I've been told DFU mode stands for device firmware update mode) I'm running out of room, so google it. Hope this helped ;)

  • My New iPod gets stuck on the Apple logo screen.

    I got a new ipod but there is one problem with it. For hours at a time it gets stuck on the apple logo screen. In this state it does not connect to my computer. I cannot get it to play music because everytime I manage to get it started up the apple logo screen pops up and shuts it down again.
    Also, on the occasions where my computer DOES recognize my iPod, my iPod says it has about 1 GB of "other files" and about 1 gb of "audio files". I understand the audio but I don't remember putting anything onto my iPod that wasn't audio. What are the "other files" and how do I remove them?

    Other can be Album Artwork, Notes, Contacts, Firmware etc. or files that are on there if you are using the iPod as a removable storage device. If you feel that Other is being incorrectly reported then try restoring your iPod. Restoring will erase the iPod's hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions and it should connect to iTunes and give you a prompt to automatically update your library onto the fresh installation. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists choose no and it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes 7

    The same thing happened to me. I assume it is stuck in an endless loop of restarting. You have to put it in connect to iTunes mode (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rm2D7-PCTaw) then restore your iPod. Hope it helps!

    Sorry, I'm here, but I am at work.
    If you do not have a backup and iTunes will not let you backup now, unfortunately you will lose everything.
    I'm not sure that I understand what you saying about iTunes not nothing the device being plugged in, but I iTunes does not see the device that is one of the reasons that you need to use recovery mode.
    If you are running iTunes 11 and you cannot see the iPad under the devices heading because you can't see the sidebar - go to View>Show Sidebar at the top of the screen in iTunes.
