My ipod 4g is stuck at the battery with a lightning bolt underneath and won't charge

My iPod died about a month ago, and I waiting. I tried charging it with almost everything I could. I plugged it into the wall, computer, etc..
To make this easier, my iPod is not jailbroken and the home button fell off and I had a feeling it had to do with the orange chip underneath the home button being loose, but that's not what other people who experienced the same thing as me had.
I tried pressing the power button, holding the power button. I can't use the home button since it is broken. I always used Assisitive Touch.
I tried pressing the power button over and over. I left the iPod in each section I charged it at for at least a night, hoping that in the morning it would turn on again.
Because it won't turn on, my iPod won't register in itunes so I can't restore it or recover it in any way that I know of without using itunes or the home button.
I eventually gave up on it and recently came back to my iPod, wanting to use it again.
I would really like to know how to fix it.

Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs and then try restoring via iTunes:

  • My Playbook is stuck on the Blackberry Playbook Start up Page! And won't reset!

    Hi All,
    i need help for my playbook.
    At first my battery wasn't holding any charge , i had lost the charger that came with it. Someone told me to buy the
    rapid charger which i did.
    I tried all the reset tricks Vol- Vol+ and Power for 15seconds - 20 seconds everything that you may read on the net.
    I plugged it on the Rapid Charger and now all it showing is the Blackberry Playbook sign on the screen. If i remove it it just shuts down. When i plug it back in it restarts and shows the the battery icon with the connection and then starts and stalls at that same Blackberry Playbook sign.
    PLEASE HELP ME AND MY 4 YEAR OLD SON PLS.
    Thanks a bunch

    Have you connected your playbook to a desktop computer?
    My understanding is if you have a computer with Blackberry Desktop installed, You can connect the Playbook and reload the OS
    This link on the Blackberry site has more details

  • Battery went from 100% to 0% and won't charge :C

    Hi guys i need some help.
    About 15min ago i was reading an article on a website when the screen 'blinked' it turned off going completly black then turned on again. Then i noticed that it said i had 0% battery but i have my MacBook Pro is plugged in right now, the battery was fully charged and its plugged in?
    So.2 problems
    1. Battery went from 100% charged to 0% in a matter of seconds WHILE PLUGGED IN.
    2. Battery is not charging at all now, just stays at 0%
    Is this a common thing? like has this happened to lots of people before and is a known issue?
    What info do i need to post up so you guys can more effectively help me? also might need to show me how to get this info.

    How old is your Mac?
    Open System Info and look at the battery section. If it says Service Battery then take the system to Apple and have it serviced.

  • 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.

  • Battery and Lightning bolt underneath

    Last night I did not get a chance to charge my iPhone 3GS before I went to sleep. I wake up in the morning and notice that my battery is dead. I plug my phone into my computer to charge and I get picture of a battery with red filling a very little bit of it up with a lightning bolt underneath, I know that this means the phone is charging, but it has been on this screen for over 6 hours already. What's going on??

    Charge it off a mains adapter, rather than a USB cable. It may have got half way through a restart and without a mains supply, it won't restart properly.

    while I was updating my ipod touch to ios 6 the battery got drained during the process, i tried restoring it, it couldnt now my ipod is stuck on the Apple logo screen.
    Can anyone help me with this issue???

    Connect your iTouch to your PC then open iTunes, if iTunes does not recognize your device, try to hold the SLEEP Button and the HOME button at the same time (iPod Reset) for a couple of seconds until the "Charging Tone sounds, now you should be seeing your device name in the iTunes " Device List". If you do, just click RESTORE and iTunes will automatically restore your iTouch to original set-up and download the iOS6 update.
    Hope this helps..

  • My ipod is stuck on low battery!!!!! and wont charge

    this might be a lil long but please bare with me!
    my ipod wont charge. i whiped out my computer last weekend and had to put all my songs back onto my ipod. it was fully charged and worked fine for me.. now my battery is dead and ive plugged it into my computer and right before the ipod died it said i needed to restore it. and i couldnt bc my internet was down. now my ipod battery is dead and i cant charge it.. does anyone kno what to do? and when i plug my ipod in, it shows a battery with a circle on it and under it it says very low battery please wait.. and there is that little flower looking thing and it shows as if it was loading but nothing is happening it wont charge and i cant restore it.. is their any other way to do it??? i charged it mostly on my elbow that i had in my car but i dont have that anymore!! please get back to me, id appreciate it..

    I dont know if this can help anybody, but I got the same issue. I sent the iPod to Apple for repair twice, and they sent it back to me saying their was noting wrong with it. I had the time to sync it once, then it got stuck on the Apple logo, and after a while the "very low battery" message showed.
    It turn out the I got a playlist in iTunes of more then 65000 song (I dont know how my sons did it...) and it somehow messed the iPod completelly.
    To reset it, I force the iPod into diskmode: you reset it using the center-menu buttons combo, then immediatly press the center and play buttons. It turns the iPod into disk mode and then you can restore it in iTunes.
    Hope this help
