Please help me ios 8 won't download I go download it and it reboots but t is still ios 7

Try the following. You will likely need to a computer with Itunes and an internet connection.
- 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 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.

My iPod 5th generation won't turn on and my middle button doesn't work

My ipod 5th generation won't turn on and my middle button doesn't work! What will I do? It all starmed when I updated iOS 8. It would be fine but would shut down at random, now it won't turn on at all!!! when I press the lock button to turn it on the Apple sign would come up for about 5/10 minutes!! so what will I do???

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
Ignore the reset and when it says place the iPod in recovery mode
Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:

You are going to have to take it to the Apple Store to see if they can do anything for you. The Home button is critical for using your device. You need to get it fixed.

There is no other way than to plug into a computer to restore the phone. You can use another computer to do so, but in case you did not back up to iCloud your data and settings will be gone.
Follow this article to connect in recovery mode:

When I bought my iPhone 4s, a friend activated it for me using his email. Later I changed it to my own email on iPhone website (iCloud A/C). But when I try to update, I found it still shown my friend's email and I don't have his password. What can I do?

In addition to what FelipeV is telling you, I advise you to contact your friend and have him remove the iPhone from his apple id through icloud.com. Otherwise, if in the future you want to update the iOS or restore the iPhone for troubleshooting a problem, you may find that you cannot activate it again due to the feature Activiation Lock in iOS 7.
Once your friend has done this, you should deactivate Find my iPhone on your iPhone iCloud settings and then activate it back with your own Apple ID.

How do I Sync All 5,000 of my songs onto my iPod 5th Generation without no problems at all, Most of my songs have the Album Artworks, some are ACC converted but after the "Changes Are Applied", it will say - Songs were not synced. File wasn't convert

I Am having a problem with syncing 5,000+ songs onto my IPod 5th Generation. Everytime I sync, some songs will either go away or ALL of them will come off my iPod. I have iTunes 12 for Windows, and it has a slow syncing process and it will take days for songs to get on the iPod. It will even say that any of the songs "we're not synced to my iPod because the file wasn't converted..
I Need help please, I would appreciate it.

Hey Bryce,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like some songs aren’t being synced to your iPod touch because they aren’t in a compatible format. Can you play those tracks in iTunes? Try selecting the tracks that won’t sync and creating a new version of them with iTunes as shown in the article below.
iTunes 11 for Windows: Save a copy of a song in a new file format
Take care,

HT4623 Tried updating my daughters iPod touch, it turned itself off and when turned on just says iTunes with a picture of a white lead. It won't let me do anything else and I don't have a computer to link it to. How do I get it back to normal?

Tried updating my daughters iPod touch and it just turned off. It now has a picture of a white lead and says iTunes. I don't have a computer to connect it to and just want it back to normal as it will not do anything. Can anyone help me?

You need to
Connect the iPod to a computer with iTunes and an internet connection and restore via iTunes
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:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

I can't get rid of an old email that I set up apps on in the past. I don't have a password. I can't update anything.

I have an old email that I can't get rid of. Every time I try to install app updates it asks for my password (which I don't remember, and I don't have that email to receive anything). I have gone to settings in icloud and I only have my updated info. Help! I can't even play some of the games without doing an update.

Hi THIVELY,
Since applications from the app store are linked to the Apple ID - in this case your old email - used to purchase or obtain them, you will need to have the password to that Apple ID in order to update those apps. This article will tell you how to reset that password so you can continue to use that Apple ID -
If you forgot your Apple ID password
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

My ipod 5th generation has erased all of my music but when i restored my back up it made me update it too. and when i did it erased half of my photos and still my music wasnt on there i need help fixing it

I have a 5th generation pod and when i was trying to put music on my ipod it deleted all of my music and when i tryed restoring it it made me update it also well when i did it erased half of my photos and my music wasnt there anymor. i need help asap please

Hi,
To restore your music, connect to your computer's iTunes and try the following settings.
Then hit the Apply button on bottom right. I find it best to select "sync only checked songs and videos" in the Options in Summary.
Good luck

IPod 5th Generation won't turn on, charge, nor connect to PC.

I have no idea how this iPod came to be this way. It belongs to my 6 year old sister who came to me today asking me to fix it. It's a 5th Generation Product RED iPod Touch.
The problem now is the screen is not displaying anything. Reset doesn't work. DFU doesn't work. When connected to PC both iPod and PC show no response (tried on multiple USB ports on multiple PCs all running Windows 7 64-bit). When plugged in to an iPhone charger, the iPod displays the Apple logo for a few seconds, goes dark for a few seconds and shows the Apple logo again, and the process repeats. I tried to fix it as a reboot loop but to no avail. While Connected to charger, I manage to put it in DFU mode but when plugged out to be plugged in to the PC it dies and doesn't turn on when connected to PC.
Preferrably, I would like to have a solution to this which doesn't wipe the iPod as the iPod was never connected to a PC for backup. Thus, all data on the iPod will ultimately be lost.

See if you missed anything here:
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

My Ipod 5th generation won't sync new music or playlists

Can someone please help me. I've added new music to Itunes and to my workout playlist (it's a playlist I made, not a smartlist - have no idea what a smartlist even is). When I plug my Ipod into my computer, it syncs ok. There are no error messages or anything. But when I look on my Ipod, the new music isn't in my library and my playlist isn't updated with the songs that I've added to it. I don't know what to do. Can anyone help me? Also, I'm new to this, so it will have to be explained Big Bird Barney Style. Thanks so much.

What exactly happens when you try to sync?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

3 day old ipod 5th gen won't work! Scan and Fix spam message...

I have owned an ipod for about 6 years, upgrading to a new version whenever I could afford it, and for Christmas my father bought me the new 5th gen nano. The last one I had was a 2nd gen nano... I have always kept my itunes up to date and so on and so forth and I have used my new 5th gen for about three days when suddenly I plug it in today and; I start getting a spam of error messages saying that there is something wrong with the ipod and that I need to Scan and Fix it. When I click Scan and Fix it closes out and says that it can not read the disk. iTunes tells me that there s something wrong with my ipod and immediately ejects it before I can even restore it.
In addition, winamp also will not recognize the new ipod but it sees my old one...
I tried using the command prompt thing but I have no idea what driver my ipod is plugged into so I keep getting errors...
I have no idea what to do about this and I am not finding any answers, I'm getting pretty upset ):
