My Ipod has quite possibly overheated and won't turn on

Ok, I was working today and I left my Ipod 3rd gen 32g in my car. Today it was over 100 degrees F and when i got out of work and got in my car, I touched mt ipod and it was hot. I clicked the home button and it displayed the screen for a second then shut down. Now when I try to turn it on, it displays the Apple logo for a few seconds then it shuts down automatically. It's not even showing up on Itunes.
Can anybody help me with this problem please?

I'm having the same problem with my Ipod (32gb 3rd gen). I was able to get the recovery screen up and start the whole process. But after the recovery was finished and the device went to reset... It continue to show the apple logo.

IPad Mini overheated and won't turn on.

Hello everyone, I would like to kindly ask if I can replace my ipad mini 32gb wifi +cellular if I bring it tomorrow at the apple store. I am from the Philippines and I also bought my ipad mini here also. I think it is still covered by my 1 year warranty because I bought it March last year (2013).
This is what happened. I was charging my iPad Mini yesterday and left it for a few hours, after 3 hours I think, I checked it and it was hot and won't turn on anymore. I immediately unplugged the charger and tried to reboot it and also tried connecting it on itunes but it didn't solve my problem. It stayed like that for 7 hours and then cooled down afterwards, until now it's not working.
So yeah, if it won't turn on because it overheated or for some other reasons, Can it be replaced? Will there be any payments?

We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
Have you tried a soft-reset to see if that gets it to boot up ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo will hopefully appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
If not then whether you might need to pay will depend upon what the store says and whether they think that it's covered by the warranty. Does the iPad have signs of damage anywhere on it e.g. dents ? Only the store will be able to tell you whether it's covered or not.

IPod has a blank screen and won't do anything?

I took out my iPod 5th gen to check the time and it was fine. Then I took it out 5 minutes later and it had a black screen so i clicked the home button. Nothing happened. I've tried the power button, the home button, holding down the power button, and plugging it into a charger and nothing has helped. It's still on a black screen and won't respond to anything I do. What should I do?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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 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 has a blue screen and won't respond to anything. Help?

My iPod touch just stopped working after I tried to retweet something on my Twitter app, and the entire screen turned blue. Now it won't turn off or respond to being plugged into the computer. My home button has been stuck in for a couple months, so I'm not able to hold down the home button and the sleep/wake button. Any advice?

My second gen iPod touch has a blank screen, and won't turn on or charge in an AC outlet. When plugged into iTunes, it is completely recognized and synced, but the screen remains blank and off. What can I do?

Hello.
I recently woke up this morning to use my iPod Touch (2nd Gen) to find that it was completely unresponsive to both buttons and would not turn on. I had been using it the night before and had not charged it. Thinking the battery was drained, I plugged it into a wall outlet for two hours, and still no sign of life on the iPod. Plugging it into the computer, it immediately showed up in iTunes and synced normally, and even indicated it had nearly a full charge. Still, however, the screen showed nothing. I checked the lock and home buttons to see if it was stuck, but it was not. Does anyone have an idea of what this is? Do I need to get my iPod repaired? Any help would be appreciated.
I am running iOS 4.1, and am out of warranty coverage.
Thanks,
- Justin

1; Do a hard rest by holding the buttons at least 15 seconds. Does the Apple logo come on?
2. Hold the power button down for at least 5 seconds. Do you see the battery symbol?
If the answer is no to both questions, you most likely have a hardware issue--possible bad battery.

1. Can you get it to light up doing a hard reset and holding the buttons down for at least a minute?
2. Is it charged up?

Ipod has recently been serviced, and will not turn on again.

My ipod has been serviced in April, the issue was that my ipod wouldn't turn off.
It's only been about a month and a half, another issue arises - the ipod wouldn't turn on.
I tried the 5R's and some basic steps in resolving this issue. None of them will turn it on.
Although my ipod is still covered by the limited warranty, but I can't afford shipping it twice to Apple Service, it's almost like the price I purchased it. Now I still want it to be serviced but think I shouldn't not be charged for anything since it's really not my fault.
What should I do right now? Anyone has some advices?
Thanks in advance.

My iPod is stuck on safari and won't turn off or return to home screen

I updated my iPod touch to iOS 6 and since then I've encounntered multiple problems. My iPod is stuck on safari and I can zoom in and zoom out but that's all I am able to do, I can't turn it off nor can I go back to the home screen. I tried letting it go on low battery but it's still on. The only button that works is the volume buttons. Help please?

If the reset is not successful, try the other items of:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My phone overheated and won't turn on again

I had my phone on charger when I went to bed and once I woke up i unlocked it to check the battery status, everything was cool so I swiped to unlock and it turned off due to high temperature. I waited for few minutes but it won't turn on again, charging it again didn't help, the reset button, I tried lots of stuff, some info would be nice.

Seems to work, it's on now, but it took me almost a whole day to get it running, had some charging issues, i couldn't tell if it was charging or not, seems to be fine now, not sure if I should be worried or something..
Thanks anyways though, at least I can use it again

My Iphone5 has a black screen and won't turn on

So after school one day i took my phone out of my pocket and the screen was black, i was pressing the on and off button for the sound and i could hear the noises, so i decided to restart my phone. After waiting for ten minutes i keep on pressing the restart button and it still would not turn on. Once i got home i plugged my phone into the charger thinking that it might turn on. However it just kept on making the noise as if i was pluging and unplugging the charger repeatedly. I keep on restarting the phone and it still has not turned on. It has been two days and the phone has still not turned on. When i plugged my phone into the the computer thinking i could reset my phone into facotry settings, itunes could not recognized my serial number. Now after not charging it for a day it will not charge at all

Hello marissamadeline,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your iPhone 5. I would be concerned too if my iPhone was not powering on. I found an article with steps you can take when you encounter an issue like this. I recommend following the steps below:
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.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
Contact Apple Support.
