My 5th gen nano is stuck on the apple logo

Okay, so I have been at this for awhile and have come to this: my nano 5th gen is stuck on the apple logo. It comes up in iTunes, when I go around the wheel it clicks, when I press a button it clicks, I have restored it several times both from the apple logo and disk mode... Oh and apparently it also syncs but stays while in iTunes but doesn't show on the device (just the darn apple logo)... anyone have any ideas before I go to the store... I am pass all the repair and warranty stuff so I guess it's open season on this thing... It can't get any worse so it can only get better, lol. Any ideas on what to do? BTW, it went through the washer and dryer in the same trip... lol. I am guessing it is completely dead but then I won't have gotten as far as I just mentioned... Help?

If not successfull try the remaining items of:
- 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.

    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

  • My iPod Nano is stuck on the Apple logo

    My iPod Nano is stuck on the Apple logo. I have reset and restored it multiple times to no avail. When I slide my finger of the scroll wheel I can hear the clicking meaning that it's actually navigating the menus behind that logo, it even plays music. It can enter disk mode and diagnostic mode fine as well. I can't turn it of though, it just get a little darker when the Play button is held. It's a 5G Nano.
    What can I do to fix this?

    If you have an Apple Store, near you, make an appointment to take it to them. If it's not a hardware failure, they may be able to help.
    Regards.

  • 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 Ipod Nano (3rd Gen) is stuck on the apple logo and I don't have a computer or iTunes to fix it

    Says it all in the title. My 3rd Gen is stuck on the apple logo and with no computer or iTunes how am I to fix it? I'm in some money troubles at the moment and I dont have that many resources available to fix my beloved iPod. I have tried resetting but it comes back to the logo and then it dies of battery.
    Any suggestions?

    If you have an Apple Store, near you, make an appointment to take it to them. If it's not a hardware failure, they may be able to help.

    Hey Edgar, how exactly did you do the updates? Are you running iTunes 11.2.2? And you iPod 5 is still running iOS 6.1.2 as your tag shows? or are you running iOS 7.1.1?  More info would be helpful. As Deggie asked, what was the error message, the more detailed the better. One more thing-- is this a Mac machine or a PC? Cheers.

    so when i turn of my ipod its always stuck on the apple logo.Ive tried disk mode and it still doesnt work.Also it isnt reconized on itunes so i need help badly

    Did you try rebooting the iPad? You will need to have some battery power for this.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • My iPod touch (4th gen is stuck on the apple logo when you first turn it on?

    So, my iPod has been acting weird since I updated to iOS 5.1.1 It gets fully carged and dies in three minutes. Well now it gets stuck on the apple logo at startup. It does the apple logo and shuts off and goes to the apple logo again. It does this repeatedly. Is there a way to fix this? I've tried resetting it multiple times, delete all the apps, all the music.

  • Stuck on the apple logo screen.

    No one seems to have the problems I'm having with my ipod. I have the 16GB silver 4G nano, and it was working fine one day while I was at work, then it slipped out of my boss's hand and fell less than a foot, but it worked fine when i checked it. But a few hours later that night, I tried to plug it into my docker and it reset itself, getting stuck on the Apple Logo screen. I tried the 5 r's a billion times, and each time it resets it gets stuck again. I've let it die, and tried to replug it in. It'll show the 'connect to power' screen, but when i plug it in it just gets stuck again. My itunes doesn't even recognize the software, even though I always download the newest versions on itunes.
    Is there something I can do? I really don't want to send it in to Apple because A. I don't know how much it costs to do that, and B. It takes forever and a day for them to return it to me.
    I've had my ipod since November '08 to May '09 and this has never happened before. Should I replace it, or am I doomed to send it in to Apple?

    Try force your iPad into Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

  • My iphone 5 suddenly wont fully boot...it stuck on the apple logo and goes of after 20 -25 secs and comes on by itself after a minute or two but still stuck on apple logo..also i am able to see a bit of lighting on the dark screen whenever it goes of

    my iphone 5 on the ios 7.1.2 suddenly wont fully turn on...it gets stuck on the apple logo and stays like that for approximately to 90 secs then goes blank but I can see a bit of lighting  behind the dark screen....it goes off by itself and comes on by itself trying to boot but still gets stuck on the apple logo after the dim light shows....when I connect to iTunes my phone can only be recognised only in recovery mode thus if I force it into recovery mode. My main worry is I don't have a back up of any of my data...on icloud I have just less than 2GB of my data which is as a result of incomplete back up...HOW CAN I GET THIS PHONE WORKING AGAIN WITHOUT LOSING MY DATA...if I can only just recover my data I would really appreciate it as I really  need almost everything on it back...if I can only get retrieve my data and lose the phone I wouldn't mind at all....Anybody know how to resolve this??Kind Regards

    Anyone have any suggestions? or is everyone else just as clueless as me !
