My iPod generation 5 was working fine then it turned it self off and it won't switch on or anything and when I put on charge the apple logo keeps flashing on and off. It

Lastnight I was just playing away on my iPod and next thing it just went off, it was fully charged and everything. Now it won't come back on and when I plug it into the wall the apple logo just keeps flashing on and off. I have tried to reset it by pressing the on and off button and home button but nothing. How can I get it working again.

- 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.

  • HT201263 I have the ipad 1, and I tried to reboot it but when I connected my ipad to the computer it did nothing.  When it is charging the apple logo simply flashes on and off again.  It is trying to start up but can't.  Help!

    I have an ipad and the only thing it does when you plug it in to the wall is flash the start up apple logo.  It will not reboot because itunes can not reconginze it.  I have tried holding the home and power button's together but it doesn't help. 

    I'm sorry, you are correct I am trying to restore my ipad because it stopped working.   We thought the battery was dead so we plugged it into the wall charger.  All it does when plugged in is flash the apple logo like it is going to start up and then shut off.  It repeats this every few seconds while it is plugged into the wall.  I let it charge overnight and still nothing.
    When I hold the power button and the home button down together while the ipad is plugged into the wall, it does flash then after I release the power button the connect to itunes screen comes on.   But when I connect it to my computer it goes blank.   itunes does not recongnize my ipad when I plug it into the computer.  I have used the same cord to plug in my other devices and itunes recongnizes them so it isn't the usb cord.
    It seems as if my system has crashed and I think this may just be an apple service trip for me.  But thanks so much for the advice.   =D

    You said "while it was restoring it said that there was an error ".

  • Does the apple logo keeps flashing on and off while restoring

    My ipad fell in water and went blank i tried restoring it would show a hardware problem.I got that fixed but it kept showing not charging sign then i forgot my pasword and tried restoring it to the factory setting but mid way it said ur ipad cannot be restored but the restoring process kept going on with the apple icon flashin one too many times in between. please advise.

    Try and force iPad into Recovery Mode
    1. Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

    If you have restored to factory settings and started as new, there is nothing more that you can do on your own. Make an appointment at an Apple Store and ask them for help. You might have a hardware problem and the Apple Store techs will be able to determine that.

    You should try doing a restore. A restore on your ipod touch will delete all it's storage and set it back to it's factory conditions but it should fix your problem. Before the restore, I suggest making a backup file for your ipod touch on itunes.
    To restore your ipod touch:
    1.Connect your ipod touch to your computer and open itunes if not already open.
    2.Select your ipod touch name in the devices section of the source pane.
    3.Click the restore option under the version section in the summary tab. An alert will pop up asking you if you really want to do this. To affirm, click restore.
    4.The restore process has now started.
    With  your ipod touch restored, you can resync it working fine.

  • My iphone won't turn on at all and when i connect it to a charger the apple sign just flashes on and off but does not turn on?

    I've tried charging it overnight and it still will not turn on, when connected to the charger the apple sign just goes on and off but does not do anything, i've tried resetting it and this also does not work, but then once taken off the charger it doesn't even say the sign for charging it just does nothing

    Turn your phone off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your phone and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a phone in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.

    The hotness indicates a possible hardware problem. If the iPod is defective and not abused Apple will exchange it at no cost
