Ipod wont turn on!!!! tried all troubleshooting too!

ok, i just got my video ipod last night, and it was working fine before i went to bed. i turned the hold switch on after i turned it off, just to make sure it wouldnt come on. when i went to put more songs on it this morning, it wouldn't come on. i reset it, but all that happened was that a blank white screen came on for about 3 secs. The battery was fully charged last night, so what could be the problem?

Try plugging it into your computer.

  • My ipod wont turn on, at all. What do i do?

    my ipod wont turn on at all

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

    - 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 another cable              
    - 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.

  • HT1349 what do you do if your ipod wont turn on and all that shows is the apple logo?

    any ideas?

    Did you try a reboot/reset?
    Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. The iPad/iPod should restart

  • My ipod mini wont turn on at all no matter what i try

    I've tried toggling the hold button while holding down the menu and select buttons, and i've tried a few other things that i have been told to in the situation that my ipod wont turn on, but none of them will work. right now it's hooked up to the usb cable on my computer, and it has been for the last couple days. i think all this might be because ive been too lazy to click eject before i unhook it a couple of times before, but i dont know.

    I've tried toggling the hold button while holding down the menu and select buttons
    It seems you are not performing the reset correctly. Don't worry about the hold switch...just press and hold menu and select simultaneously for about 6 seconds until you see the Apple logo appear. If you have an AC adapter, plug the iPod into the wall socket using this and then try the reset.
    i think all this might be because ive been too lazy to click eject before i unhook it
    Bad idea! You should always eject it properly or you risk corrupting the hard drive...it would be a shame to have to fork out for another iPod just because of laziness!

    See these troubleshooting articles.
    My iPod is sad.
    What does this picture on my iPod mean?
    PC doesn't recognize the iPod is connected.
    When restoring the iPod, it's useful to put into disk mode first.

    The sad iPod icon is usually indicative of a hard drive problem, and if none of the above help, it may need service.

  • My ipod touch wont turn on at all even when i connect it to my computer

    So my ipod touch wont turn on at all even when i connect it to my computer! it was working fine then outta no where it wouldnt wanna turn back on. i tryed resetting but it doesn't do anything. Also when i put it on the charger it seems to get pretty hot...is the normal? help please...

    There are two different causes of this, either it has been overheated, or the iPod just crashed.  If it crashed, there is one simple step to fixing it.  Letting the battery die.  Do not connect to a charger port, or the device may get overheated, and need to be replaced.  Once it dies, it normally will show the icon, that is needs to be charged. Once you charge it back up, it should go back to normal.  If this doesn't help, then contact apple to the nearest store about getting a replacement.

    Hi Sian.riches,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I know it can be both concerning and frustrating if your iPhone will not turn on as expected. I also know your have done some great troubleshooting already. I would suggest reading over the attached article and trying the troubleshooting steps provided to ensure everything has been done.
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Have a great day,
    Joe

  • My iPhone 4 turns off (crashes) after accesing any apps, It work fine when plugged to charger. I tried all troubleshooting steps suggested by Apple but it doesn't work. What could be the problem and what are the solutions?

    My iPhone 4 turns off (crashes) after accesing any apps, It work fine when plugged to charger (power supply). I tried all troubleshooting steps suggested by Apple but it doesn't work. I backed up my phone. I restored it several times. Even I re-installed iphone software. Also I restored it as a new iphone but doesn't work. What could be the problem and what are the availble solutions?

    We can't know if there's a "fixture" because we can't examine your phone.  But Apple can.  Make a Genius Bar appointment and get your phone evaluated.

  • Ipod wont turn on all i see is the apple sign then my ipod shuts off again, how to fix it?

    ipod wont turn on all i see is the apple sign then my ipod shuts off again, how to fix it?

    Connect it to itunes, and see if itunes recoginizes it.
    If not, then hold home and the power button to do a soft reset.
    If not, then you will need to go into recovery mode.
    To get into recovery mode you need to Hold Power + Home at the same time. After it goes blank, continue holding the home button while releasing your finger from the Power Button.
    You should be able to do it. Otherwise, you may need to send your Ipod in for repair.
    NOTE - Using recovery on your Ipod will erase all data and reset all settings.
