My device froze. Did the turn on and home button hold down to reboot, but now it has the itunes logo and USB cord photo.

It is a Touch 4th generation.  My research on this site makes me fear the device somehow cleared its memory of all my stuff.  When connected to the computer and in iTunes, it isn't recognized.
Problems: photos aren't downloaded onto the computer and most recent movie purchase on the device was done since last sync and isn't showing in my itunes account.
Did I loose my photos, videos (I took), and movie purchase lost?  Is there a way to get the iPod to work again and not loose the documents I have on it or are they  really gone?
It was working just fine and then froze.  In the past, I did the reboot and it worked just fine.
Any suggestions? 

Try:
- 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.
