  • I have just restored my i pod 4g and it freezes on apple logo i have tried everything please help

    i have just restored my i pod 4 g and it freezes on apple logo i have tried numerous thing but nothing works

    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.

    In the future saying that " i have tried numerous thing but nothing works" provides us with zero information as to what you did try.

    Hello there, Victoria.
    Great job on troubleshooting on your own. The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great steps to review and additional recomendations:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1476
    Resolving issues
    If your battery doesn't charge, or if your device shows a low-battery image, black screen, or "accessory not supported" alert, follow these steps.
    Inspect the connector at the bottom of the phone:
    Make sure that there are no bent pins in the connector.
    Make sure that the connector is free from debris.
    If there are bent pins or debris, please contact Apple Support.
    Otherwise, continue troubleshooting.
    Make sure that the outlet you're using works.
    Make sure that the Apple USB cable and Apple USB power adapter work.
    Plug the device in to power and let it charge until your device turns on. This could take between 10 and 30 minutes. If you don't have an Apple USB power adapter, try connecting to a computer's high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be on.
    If the device still exhibits an issue, try turning your device off and then on again while connected to power.
    If the issue persists, please contact Apple Support.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

    P.S Excuse my english.

    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.

  • My phone went blank and now will only show the apple logo I have tried to reset it and that doesnt work HELP!!!!

    My iPhone is frozen. It was working find about a hour ago and then for no reason the screen went to the apple logo. I have tried to reset it and that doesnt work. When I press the power/lock button and the center key it turns off but then it comes right back to the apple logo screen and wont go any further. Please help I dont have my stuff saved and would like to keep the stuff i do have on it!!! Every once in awhile the screen will go black for a few seconds then the apple logo pops right back up! I dont know what to do.....

    Try to set it up as new device, explained here:
    How to back up your data and set up as a new device
    First without using the backup, in case it contains corrupt data.
    If it works after that, use the backup to restore from.

  • How do I restore my ipod to factory settings, but I have a passcode lock, and my screen is broken so I can't type in my password when I connect to itunes?

    Okay so I have had my ipod 4th gen for almost 2 years buy the screen has fallen out of the back casing, (I bought it as refurbished) and I am trying to reset it to factory settings, so when I get a new one I can register my device on apps/games since some apps require that you can only register on one device, but I think the thing that connects to the screen is ripped so the screen won't turn on and I can't physically touch it. What I want to know is how can I restore it with me not being able to type in the password lock since the screen is broken?
    or is there a way to disable the passcode lock through the computer?

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen                         
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up     
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

  • HT1339 i plugged my ipod to outlet charger to charge, it was working fine before then, but i left it charge for maybe an hour. i went to check it, and the screen just stays white, no apple logo,  just a white screen. whats wrong with it?

    How do I change the name of my ipod? It was used, i purchased it from a friend.

    I have 4 pc's at home and an imac, but the ipod has the same error on all of them. sorry for not pointing that out, seems that it works only on a MAC OS X, cause my imac isn't an OS X and it can't read the ipod either, it recognizes it as an ipod,and gives me info on it, but it freezes up also when I try to open it...thanks for trying to help.

  • My ipad is stuck on apple logo.  Have tried solutions from threads here. No luck

    I have read and tried all of the suggestions on this forum including restoring from iTunes.  I have Windows computer - not sure if that is why itunes is not recognizing my ipad.  I try to turn it off, but the apple just keeps coming back on.  I've tried holding the home button and power - it looks like it is shutting off, then the apple logo comes right back on.
    Help!!

    FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
    3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
    4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
    DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
    5. Release Home button.
    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
    7. Select "Restore iPad"...
    Note:
    1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
    2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.
    3. Repeat the process if necessary.

  • My computer won't turn on, it just stays on the blue screen, whats wrong?

    This has happened before, but the problem was supposed to go away. A window pops up randomly and says "start-up disk is full" and i just click "OK" and move on. But then today i turned off  my computer and about 30mins. later I turned it back on and it got stuck on the blue screen. WHAT DO I DO?????

    Reboot holding the Shift Key down and target some large files like Movies to copy to a external storage drive, then delete them from the boot drive and reboot a couple of times so OS X realizes there is new space available and boots normally again.
    See #7 here

    If that doesn't work then do this

  • I daughter's iPod touch is password locked and authorized to computer that doesn't exist anymore. i want to set it up on my iTunes but it won't recognize it because of the failed password attempts. what can i do?

    My daughter's ipod touch is password locked and attached to a computer that doesnt exist anymore. i want to authorize it to my computer itunes account but itunes wont even read it due to the password failure. what can i do?

    That's by design. The password is designed to protect the user's information and cannot be circumvented. You can restore it to "new" condition though, and sync it to your computer. The iPod Touch's content will be securely erased by doing this.
    Refer to iOS: Unable to update or restore. Follow the instructions exactly as written.
