My ipod had a flat battery and turned off and i tried to charge it but it said to connect it to itunes, so i did that but it didnt work?

Help. My ipod wont work. When it got a flat battery i tried to charge it but it wouldnt work and it said i have to connect to itunes so i tried that but something went wrong. Help.

Hey Marlowejewel, you didn't state which iPod you have. Did you get anything be for your iPod quit working? Apple symbol with an arrow, error messages, or just the 20% low battery warning. If you try and turn it on now do you get anything? Have you tried a soft reset? Press and hold both the power and home buttons until the Apple logo appears, about 15 seconds+/-, then release both buttons. Anything?
Here's a couple of general fixes, going with the idea that the battery is run down, in need of a charge. Inspect your iPod's charging port you're looking for damage, cracks, missing or bent pieces / pins. Is there signs of corrosion or foreign debris, like lint or dirt, (anything preventing an electrical connection). If so attempt to carefully remove the debris by blowing it out or carefully use a wooden toothpick to remove the debris. If port is clear and still will not charge, try a different cable. The lighting cables (iPod 5) have a history of failure, shorting out, but it doesn't mean the 30 pin type cables (iPod 4 and earlier) are immune from shorting out. If cable is not the problem, try a different charger and/or different cable. Or try the charger with a different outlet. Allow your iPod to charge for at least 30 minutes, then see if your iPod will function, if your iPod charges with a different cable or charger, there's your problem, then charge you iPod for at least 4 hours, (a full charge). If your iPod will not turn on even when plugged in and you know the charger is good as is the cable, then you may have a hardware issue or battery issue contact Apple and have your iPod evaluated. Good luck, Cheers.

I have been trying to download the movie Prometheus onto my Ipad. It sticks at 793mb and hasn't moved for hours. I have 48gb of space on my i-pad and have hard resetted and turned off and switched back on, always reconnecting with wi-fi immediately. It doesn't resume?
I haven't even received an email stating I have been charged for it???
Any ideas??

Well I have an update. I decided to stay as I was so far down the road. They gave me an engineer appointment of 14 of August which was totally disgusting.
I rang up to complain and was promised a call back as they tried to expediate my request. Never happened.
Whilst on these calls I also questioned the validity of sending another engineer unless they first checked that my local cabinet hard an available fibre port. I was promised and promised that they would put the notes on the call and it would not be a wasted engineer visit.
Engineer came today. Wasted visit - no ports on the cabinet.
He was not even sure why he was sent there knowing there were no ports. Talk about the blind leading the blind.
The incompetency of this corporation is absolutely astounding even when their customers are telling them they are going to fail they lie to your face just to appease you on the phone and move you on.
So I ordered my switch from sky to BT on June 6th.. and so far all I have is a phone line.
On top of this I noticed that they have charged me a late payment fee by DD and full line rental for first month. BT were so slow at installing it all that my up front line rental apparently did not cover their initialy switch over. Despite telling me I would not be charged I have been charged.
Now as a web designer I am now tempted to create basic website and use my SEO skills to push it to top of google rankings sharing with everyone of my experience of BT.

My iphone 5 will freeze up and turn off and back on. It will go to the apple screen and then go black MULTIPLE times before it comes back on. No buttons work while this happens. My phone is a week old.

User troubleshooting is restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new. If you perform these steps and it still doesn't work, then make an appointment at the Apple Genius bar and have the hardware checked.

How do i fix my ipod touch 4th gen when the apple logo appears and then a whit screen comes up and turns off and it wont charge and it wont connect to itunes

My ipod touch 4th gen is a having a few problems with charging and turning on, my ipod comes up with the extremely low on power symbol and then i put it into my computer and it comes up with the charging symbol then it goes to the apple logo and then onto a blank white screen and then turns off and repeats that process i have tried various things including resetting my ipod trying to connect it to itunes but it doesnt come up with anything so i cant reset it on itunes and have tried various charging devices.

Tried it but it won't do anything all it does is make the screen do a very small flash of white and then continues doing the same thing appearing with apple logo then the white screen and off and keeps repeating that
I'm guessing the white small flash means it's been reset when I hold the 2 buttons down,
Thanks for suggesting.

Iphone 5 keeps getting blue screen and turning off, and wont go bk on

my iphone 5 keeps getting blue screen, turning off and not going bk on for a few hours then it comes on ive reset phone works then it starts doing same problem over again

Hey there aussiekris,
It sounds like your phone is unexpectedly turning off. I suggest the troubleshooting steps outlined in this article named:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Ipod nano 7th: Screen flashes white (turns off) and stops the music.

I just got a brand new Ipod nano 7th: Less than 10 seconds after the song starts playing the screen flashes white, the apple logo shows up and it returns to 'home' screen. Battery is full. Tried to restart but that didnt help!
What could be the problem?

Hi joannefromhkg,
If your iPod nano (7th generation) will not turn on at all I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
iPod nano (7th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
Specifically -
Follow these steps if your iPod a power-related issue.
Will not turn on or screen remains dark
Connect iPod to power for at least ten minutes to ensure that the battery has enough charge to allow iPod to turn on.
If iPod does not turn on after ten minutes, try resetting it while it is still connected to power. Reset the iPod by holding down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least six seconds or until you see the Apple logo appear.
If the Apple logo appears on the display, connect iPod to a computer and verify that it appears in iTunes and can play music. If iPod appears in iTunes and can play music, no further troubleshooting is needed.
If the screen remains dark and will not turn on, then your iPod may need service.
And -
Issue not resolved
If the issue is still not resolved, please read this information on servicing your iPod.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

IPod touch 5thgen losing battery while turned off??

I've noticed upon receiving my new 5th Gen iPod touch that the battery life seems ridicuously poor. I have to charge it almost every day even with no apps running in the background, bluetooth off, no fetching, wifi off when not in use and only playing music for about 40 mins a day. Another wierd thing is that my ipods Usage says 15,740 days, 23 hours and Standby says 15,741 days, 10 hours ... I only got this ipod at christmas time!! Also, my messages app sometimes freezes after a few seconds of typing and I have to reset again and again to ever get the message out.
Some help would be greatly appreciated

Also, when I have about a third of battery left and then fully turn off my iPod for the night, I wake up to find that it is completely drained and won't turn on at all.

TS1363 my iphone (with a fully charged battery) has turned off and is not restarting?

How can I get my Iphone to turn on, it has a full battery and went off on its own?

According to Apple's website you should be getting up to almost 15 hours of playback time from a full charge. It shouldn't matter whether or not you have the iPod on or off during the charging process.
