Ipod wont do anything.

My ipod wont do anything! I go to turn it on and it just stays on the apple logo screen, and I can't do anything. When i plug it into the computer it still just stays at the apple logo. The ipod dont show up in itunes or on my desktop. I tried reseting it and it turns of and then comes right back on and freezes on the apple screen. After being plugged into the computer for awhile it will go to that little disc thingy with the bar at the bottom loading, which means its checking for whats wrong and stuff but after its done it shows the disc with a little checkmark by it. Anyway please help!

    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I understand that your iPod touch will not turn on.  I would start with going through the troubleshooting steps in the article below.

  • PLEASE HELP!! ipod wont do anything at all

    Well, my computer crashed some time ago with my itunes, but I was successfully able to restore them. However, about an hour after my ipod finished updating, it froze. It wouldnt do anything, and as it was frozen while playing, it ran out of batteries a few hours later. I wasn't too worried, this happens to me alot, I just recharge the Ipod and it works. But after charging the ipod for about four hours, it was even worse. Although the screen was not frozen, all it would display is an apple and then a folder with an exclamation point. I found out that that means i need to update my Ipod. So I downloaded the Ipod Updating software and plugged my iPod in. But the program just read "Error" and kept disconnecting my iPod without stopping it. Now my ipod is still completely useless, only showing that folder, and making really loud buzzing and clicking noises. Does anyone have any suggestions?!?!?

    Haley,
    You didn't say if you use a Mac or a PC. If you use a Mac fire up Disk Utilities and do a Disk Repair. if that doesn't do it then do an erase and reload the iPod software into the iPod.
    If you're on a PC I haven't got a clue.

  • So my ipod wont play anything. screen works and i can move and select things and play games but music or vidios wont play. help?

    help me. it wont play anything

    Try the following:
    - Reset. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup via iTunes
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • My ipod wont display anything, just a black screen.

    i took it off of the charger yesterday and the display wouldnt work, i tried resetting it, but my laptop wont recognise it and i cant tell if it's charging anymore

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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 Wont Detect

    Hi all. Whenever I connect my Ipod to my PC, the SDafly Remove Hardware thing detects it, but thats it. It is fully charged, but I keep getting the Folde error. Ive rebooted both the Ipod and my PC, reinstalled itunes, and Ive made sure the Ipod is fully charged. The ipod wont do anything when I plug in the PC and my Computer and Itunes wont read it. When I dissconnect the Ipod, my PC's screen asks me if I wish to reformat the ipod to make it work. I plug the ipod back in and click ok and nothing happens. Please help me.
    EDIT: Also, Ive gotten my PC to read it 2 times, but in itunes when I click to restore it, it says there was a problem downloading the restoring stuff.

    This happened to me, first make sure your computer installs the necessary files for your ipod. It should do it automatically if you plug it in for the first time. Make sure iTunes is up to date (sometimes it works). Lastly just try restarting your computer, or give the ipod some time to show up in iTunes.
    Does the battery have a "thunder" sort of symbol in it when you plug it into the USB port? Maybe it thinks you have ejected it or something. In other words does it charge?
