IPod wont boot

Well, whenever I try to turn on my iPod it goes to the white screen saying
Connect to your computer.
Use iTunes to restore.
So I connect it to my computer but my computer and iTunes don't recognize it except in Safely Remove Hardware. So I've put it into diagnostic mode and tested it and goes fine until it gets to
Accessorize Test
Please Plug FW
LCD ID : 4
FWPWR : 0
Then it just stays there and does nothing.
I've tried rebooting, putting it into disk mode, nothing.
I hope someone can help.

If you can't restore it using iTunes, which seems to be the case, you might want to give a try to CopyTrans Doctor http://www.copytrans.net/doctor.php

  • Ipod wont boot/reset/shutdown

    Hi!
    3 days ago i discovered that my ipod wouldnt boot. I tried everything, Menu+Select for 1min, recharging the reset, connecting to my computer, connecting to recharger, and nothing. It seems dead, because the display does not show anything and it does not respond at all.
    The only thing i can hear from the ipod is this ticking sound(not from the headphones) that's annoying me now for 3whole days. tick,tick,tick,tick and so on from the bottom connector.
    I have researched the internal pcb of the ipod video and realized that it might be the DC-DC converter that seems to loop the hole time through it's capacitors or small inductors. The other theory is that the hard-drive thats trying to boot, but that seems not likely. Because then the battery would have drained out already by the first day of "ticking"
    So please, is there someone that knows how to reset a ipod video 5.5G 30Gb completely, my patience is dying right here and it seems that i will hear this ticking for a whole week or more (I fully recharged it before the ticking noise)

    me too had the same problem... i just bought my ipod video 80gb for 3 months and use it occasionally. Yesterday i was listening to my ipod, songs just started skipping and at the end, the song just got stucked at the playing menu with timed minutes and artist display. all i can get is the ticking sound of the controller. when i connect it to my itune, it just say it was corrupted and cant restore. think i need some professional help here, thanks

  • IPod wont boot up

    I have an 80gb ipod video and I just tried to install rockbox on it and now it won't boot up... This really *****... help!!

    By boot up, I take this to mean that it (your iPod) doesn't mount on your computer like an external drive would when you plug it in. Assuming this is the case, I have had a similar problem and found a fix (which worked for me). After connecting your iPod to your computer, your iPod should (if your problem is like mine) read "do not disconnect".
    At this point, when nothing happens on your computer, hold down the center circle and the top button (menu) down at the same and keep it depressed until you see the silver apple appear. This action resets your iPod; FYI- this doesn't affect or erase your files on the iPod in anyway, it's like restarting your computer. After you do this, your computer should (hopefully) now see your iPod and you should be up and running as normal.
    I was relieved to find a workaround but have to do this every single time I want the iPod to mount, which is a bit of a bummer. I REALLY hope this solves your problem!

  • TS1363 ipod wont boot and is stuck at the apple screen

    i have a 4th gen ipod touch 32g with 5.1.1 iOS one day i was installing an application and the ipod freezes so i decide to reboot it when i turn it back on it did the normal routine and go to the little apple screen that pops up but thats all the ipod would do is just show the apple screen so i reboot it over and over again and its still stuck. so next i let the battery run out and see if that would help.... it didnt, next i pluged it up to iTunes and it wont even show the device so this now is my last resort please help.

  • Macbook wont boot (folder icon with question mark)

    Dear all,
    I have macbook 13.3 (black one) for a year. This morning it just didn't boot and I got the question mark sign. I googled and discovered that it is probably a HD problem and the solution is: boot macbook from DVD install disk and try to repair.
    My problem is, that I cant do even that. I put the original DVD in, after boot I pressed hold option. Then I got only mouse cursor but no icons (like the DVD is not inserted). I tried with C also, but nothing. It just wont boot from DVD.
    Does anyone has a solution, how can I force macbook to boot from DVD?

    Make sure the disc is clean with no scratches in it. Also, you can try running fsck to check the disk.
    1. Reboot/Startup holding your Command-S key down.
    2. At the command line type the following and hit 'Return.'
    /sbin/fsck -fy
    3. If it finds a problem and repairs it, immediately run fsck again until the drive checks OK.
    4. After it has check/repaired your disk, type 'reboot' and hit 'Return' again. Unit should bootup normally.

    Hello lorvic9195,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 
    You can use the following article to troubleshoot your issue with your iPad not booting. I would suggest looking first at the "Power/Battery" section. The "Battery or charging issues" first and then the "Other issues".

  • My ipod wont let me download a game it tells me i dont have enough storage when i have more then enough

    My ipod wont let me download a game it tells me i dont have enough storage when i have more then enough

    To download and install an app the iPod needs storage available equal to about three times the file download size.
    If you sync from your iTunes library less storage available is required.
    Does the app/iPod meet this?
