My ipod dosent switch on

My ipod is fully charged and it dosent switch on
I 've tried to reset it but it wouldnt

If you have tried holding down the volume down and sleep/wake buttons until you see the apple logo and that did not fix it, I would suggest using iTunes to restore the Nano.

  • My Ipod video switch on by itself

    My Ipod video switch on by itself. Even if its locked, it turns on. It can be after 2hours or it can be after one day, it's never the same. So, when it's time for me to use it the battery is dead because it played for hours unknowingly.

    Id check the alarms, even if you didn't set them it could have happend accidently.

  • HT201406 when ipod is switched on the screen shows a usb cable symbol and itunes symbol, why is this

    when ipod is switched on the screen shows a usb cable symbol and itunes symbol, and it wont let me switch it on even though it is fully charged up, why is this?

    It is either an erased iPod or an iPod that has a problem. The screen is telling you to connect the iPod to your computer via the USB cable and restore via iTunes. For how to restore see:

  • My ipod wont switch on anymore. ive tried everything! what can i do?

    my ipod wont switch on anymore! what can i do??

    Get it serviced either by Apple or a third party repair company. The choice is yours.  There is no telling what the exact cause of the issue is whether it be a dead battery or another damaged internal component.

  • Help! My Ipod wont switch off!

    please help me..
    my ipod wont switch off..i hv a 30GB ipod video..
    normally it will switch off automatically after a few mins if i dont play songs, but recently it wont switch off and it's using up the battery!
    and when i press hold Play button to switch off manually, it doesnt hv any effect..
    help!
    does this happen to any of you??

    I think this is some type of bug. I have had this problem with my iPod photo and now my 5th gen. iPod.
    It's most noticeable after ejecting the iPod from the computer. It takes a short while before you an turn the iPod off. Sometimes it will not turn off when viewing a video. So hit the menu button and start playing a song - then it will probably turn off. It's a bug because the iPod will sense the button press by changing the top porting of the display (toggling time etc..) but it simply won't turn off. I wonder if it's something to do with the hard drive spinning at the moment???
    Anyway, try playing a song and try again.

  • Why my ipod will switch on automatically when connected to pc through usb cable?

    can anyone tell what i can do to stop my ipod from switching on automatically whenever it is connected to my pc through usb cable? .. thanks

    What do you mean it swithes on. Thats because its charging.
    Now if your talking about it opening itunes, thats fixable. Just let it open up itunes & go to ur device & scroll down on summary until you see a box to select saying "automatically open itunes when this device is connect" make sure the little box isnt checked.

  • Ipod kept switching off

    Has anyone else experienced this?
    Yesterday my ipod kept switching off during songs. A tap on the central button switched it back on and it continued playing but kept doing this every minute or so. The screen just kept greying out.
    Today I switch it on and it plays fine continuously. Is this just a glitch or can I stop it if it starts doing it again?

    I had the exact symptoms you describe. (nano 3rd gen) Not sure if it was necessary, but I went ahead and performed the restore. So far it's going along as it had before.

  • IPod not switching off

    Hi,
    I have recently discovered that when I go to turn off my iPod 5th Gen 30GB Video, when I push and hold the play/pause button, all that happens is that the backlight fades but the iPod stays switched on and when I release the play/pause button, the light fades back on again!!
    The only way I have found to actually switch it off is to press the middle button several times, also switching the hold switch on and off repeatedly.

    This sometimes happens to me when I have mine on for long periods of time without turning it off or letting the battery run down. I have to plug it into the computer open itunes and then eject it to be able to turn it off again.
    Someone else posted that if it appears frozen to hold down the menu button 15-20 seconds and that should unfreeze it. I haven't tried it, but I will next time it happens.

    Any advice please?

    If you tried everythng here then it is time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. It appears you have a hardware problem.

    Hello Yaeltorres,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like your iPod Classic will not turn on.
    I found this article that addresses that issue specifically for you.
    iPod won't turn on
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1383
    Make sure the Hold switch is off
    Check to see if the Hold switch is on. It's located on the top or the bottom of iPod. When it's in the on position, you'll see an orange patch.
    To turn the hold switch off, slide it until you no longer see the orange patch.
    Press any button to turn on iPod.
    Make sure the battery is charged
    iPod won't turn on if the battery is empty. Instead, a low battery screen appears for about 3 seconds when you try to turn it on.To charge your iPod, connect your iPod to your computer's built-in 6-pin FireWire or high-powered USB port or connect it to the Apple iPod Power Adapter and plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet. Note: iPod models without a Click Wheel cannot be charged via USB. iPod shuffle requires a high-power USB port to charge. iPod nano and iPod (5th generation) can charge via USB or FireWire, but they require USB to sync with iTunes. If you're not sure what iPod model you have, click here.If you are connecting via USB and the battery is completely discharged, there may be up to a 30-minute delay before iPod powers up. Click here for more information.
    Reset iPod
    If iPod still does not turn on or appears to be "frozen" you may need to reset it. When you reset iPod all your songs and files are saved. Some customized settings may be lost.
    Let the iPod battery drain
    In rare cases, iPod might get into a state in which it needs to be drained completely before it can be reset. If iPod didn't turn on after you reset it, follow these steps:
    Disconnect iPod from all power sources and leave it disconnected for about 24 hours.
    Reconnect iPod to the Apple iPod Power Adapter or computer and reset it.
    Update iPod's software
    If iPod turns on after you reset it, use the latest version of iTunes to update iPod.
    Additional Information
    If you have tried the solutions above and iPod still won't turn on, check the following:
    Make sure iPod is the only device in your FireWire or USB chain. Disconnect everything but the mouse, keyboard, and your iPod, then see if it will turn on.
    Make sure you are using the FireWire or USB cable that came with your iPod, and that the cable is in good condition.
    Try connecting iPod to the built-in port of a different computer to see if that works. Note: If using a portable computer, make sure it is plugged in to a power source and that the lid or display is open. If the lid is closed the computer may go into either standby, sleep, or hibernation mode and iPod will not charge properly.
    If you still can't turn iPod on after performing these steps, it may need to be repaired. You can arrange for repair at the iPod Service Website.
    For more information see:

    Cheers,

  • Why won't my 5th Gen Ipod touch switch on?

    I have had my 5th Gen Ipod touch for 1 week. This morning it wouldn't switch on, the screen just stays black. Neither itunes or my computer recognise it but if I plug it into a mains charger the apple logo flashes slowly. I have tried everything suggested in the forums. Is there anything else I can do? Or is it a trip to the apple store?

    Try:
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

  • 5G ipod hold switch doesn't work during video

    Often, when I start playing a video, the hold switch has zero effect; it never locks the controls. Then later, when I start playing music, the hold switch starts working again. I have seen this behavior enough that I now believe it is a software bug, and not a hardware issue with my iPod.
    Any truth to this? Or am I seeing a hardware anomaly and I should swap it out (its under 30 days).

    Switched it out at the apple store, hardware was defective....
