Ipod wont come on, tried everything

I was running and a song would stop halfway through it. I kept pushing play again and it got to be every 10 seconds instead of every minute or so.
I finally let it stay paused and my screen never worked during that time. I went home and plugged it in the computer and it didnt recognize it and the screen stayed blank. I restored the ipod to default settings from the computer and during the whole time the screen never came back on, just beeping, not even a flashing screen.
I was able to add songs back on it from my computer but it still doesnt work or anything, connected or disconnected from the computer. I left it alone all night plugged into the computer and it still wont work at all. It just beeps. Ive tried the resettings and all.
I tried laying it on a flat surface plugged into the computer and pushing the menu and middle button at the same time and still nothing. Its hooked to the computer now and its just clicking every 5-6 seconds.
PLEASE HELP!!
Thank you

did you ever get this to work again? i just had the same exact problem happen to me today... the ipod isnt that old and i only use it to run with...

    Did you:
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    - 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.

  • Ipod is stuck on (tried everything)

    My ipod has been frozen on for about 4 hours now. The light on it won't even turn off. I've tried everything that almost every website has suggested doing for a frozen ipod but it sounds like the tutorials assume that your ipod is frozen off.

    You may need to reset it. Put the hold switch to the OFF/White position. Now toggle it ON/orange then back off again. Then press and hold both the MENU and center buttons on the iPod and hold them for a good 15 seconds or so. Your iPod should reboot starting with the Apple Logo screen.
    If it doesn't work the first time, give it a second or third go. Sometimes it takes a few/several tries.
    See this thread as an example of what I mean by needing to try it many times...

  • TS1630 no sound and wont shut off. tried everything

    Hi, I have a 7 month old, or about, iPhone 4S. I can't listen to music or hear any sounds at all, but it will vibrate. My phone refuses to shut off, and will turn on a few moments later. I have tried everything and i have read everything in the articals and Apple Support. Is there anything that I can do or should I look into a new phone?

    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.

  • Itunes/Iphone/Ipod device driver issues - tried everything. Still not working.

    After hours and hours of research, I'm completely stuck. Here's the basic problem.
    When I plug in my Iphone to my laptop, windows pulls up a little window that says installing device driver software. After several minutes, the process fails and a message comes up that says windows found drivers for my device, but encountered an error and wasn't able to install them. In the device manager, the iphone is listed as an "other device" with a yellow triangle/exclamation point. Itunes never recognizes the device.
    When I plug in my ipod nano 4th generation, the exact same thing happens, except it's listed in the device manager as an ipod. (same yellow triangle though.)
    Up until today, both of these devices have been working properly, syncing without trouble. The iphone synced wirelessly and the ipod every time I plugged it in. I can't figure out what on earth happened to my laptop today that messed things up.
    It's also worth noting that I have another older ipod nano... second generation, I think, that plugs in and is recognized immediately, works perfectly.
    Here is what I've done so far:
    1. I worked through every single troubleshooting guide that Apple has to offer. No change.
    2. I did a complete clean install of itunes and all additional components, rebooted and reinstalled. No change.
    3. I uninstalled/re-installed usb controllers in the device manager. No change.
    4. reset both the phone and the ipod. No change.
    5. I've tried various cables. No change.
    6. I've run system checks and repair utilities for windows vista.
    7. I've used selective start up to see if another program is interfering. I've stood on my head and counted to one hundred. I've only said seventeen swear words.
    At this point I've done so much searching and troubleshooting, I can't imagine how anything is going to fix this issue. So this is my last hope. Please oh please be smart enough to tell me what to do...

    Not sure if this is significant, but in a weird turn of events, when I tried plugging the ipod in this morning, the little message that pops up to install device driver software actually told me the drivers were installed successfully. However, in the device manager, it still says the drivers are NOT installed properly, the little yellow triangle is still there and the ipod still isn't registering in itunes, or my computer. So. Not really any improvement, but a different symptom none the less?
    I'm desperate, guys. Someone help?

  • Nothing recognises my ipod 5th gen-have tried everything grrr!!!

My ipod mini still gets recognised. I have gone through all the tutorials and nothing is working. It is driving me mad, what can I do? Please help!!

    Hey poppypoppy,
    Have you tried assigning your iPod a different drive
    letter? See these instructions below:
    Log off of any other users on your computer (and
    disconnect any iPods that are currently connected to
    your computer, as well)
    Then, put your iPod into Disk Mode, then follow these steps:
    1 - Don’t plug in your iPod yet.
    2 - Go to "START -> Control Panel -> Admin Tools (if
    you don't see this, click on "classic view" button on
    the left panel) -> Computer Management."
    3 - Click on the "Disk Management" button in the left
    panel area.
    4 - Now, with "Computer Management" and Control Panel
    windows opened, reset your iPod, and connect it.
    5 - Right-click on your iPod's listing there (after a
    few moments when it gets recognized in this drive
    window), and click on "Change Drive letter and
    Paths". Then the "Change..." button.
    Here's what it should look like:
    Assign your iPod the letter "M" "N", "O" or the like
    (further along in the alphabet).
    For more details, see this article:
    Windows confuses iPod drive letter / Changing
    drive letter
    If your iPod isn't recognize to assign it a different
    letter, or the above steps still don't work, then try
    disconnecting all other USB devices from your
    computer (other than your mouse and keyboard), and
    see if you can re-assign your iPod's drive letter
    works.
    I hope that helps you.
