What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting?  If nothing else, work through each of the 5 R's of troubleshooting for your iPod to rule out the possibility of any sort of software error/glitch or data corruption.

Otherwise, you have a hardware issue, meaning you'll need to either take or send your iPod in for service/replacement either via Apple or a third party service.

  • My iPod nano (3rd generation) shut off and wont turn back on?

    I was putting new music on my Ipod, and one day after working perfectly fine, i got to a song my friend got for me. After lintening to it for about thirty seconds, my ipod shut off. I tried holding down the home button, but nothing hapened.  I also tried charging it. The computer will not recognize it either. Is there something i can do to make it work, or do i have to bringit in to an apple store?

  • My ipod has just turned off and wont come back on

    my ipod has just turned off and wont come back on but i know it had a good amount of battery left and if i plug it into my computer or docking station nothing happens please help...

    Try:                                               
    - 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.

    How do I know if my phone is charging when it just powered off and wont power back up?

    Hold the power button and it should show a red battery icon with a lightning bolt symbol. That symbol indicates charging.

  • Ipod Nano, power will come off and on but otherwise is completely frozen,

    Please help!!
    I have an ipod nano that is only 3 months old. It has been acting strange. When it first started the clicker wheel wouldn't work and I could reset the nano and it would be good for a single use only. After 2 weeks of that now the only thing it will do is cut on and off. Otherwise, it is completely frozen. I have done all of the things that apple support suggests short of having this chat. Reset doesn't help, I also downloaded all the updates, restarted computer and restored the nano. Still nothing.
    Thanks

    If none of those troubleshooting steps helped, it needs service.
    You can arrange online service here.

    Btw, you may want to posts any future questions in the iPod nano forum which is here.

  • Fathers iPod 4th gen unexpectedly shut off and wont charge...

    My father a few minutes ago encountered a problem were he was watching a movie and his iPod shut and turned black after it has been charging for about two hours on his computer. I now won't charge nor turn on after I prees the on/home button for a restart. What should we do? Also we purchased this during Christmas.

    I read up on some warranty info apple provides, and they warrant that batteries are not replaceable for free unless it's a factory flaw. They get you with the 90-day warranty that doesn't help at all because they always find some way to make it your fault. So, I'm guessing to just bring it back to an Apple store or the place of purchase. For my father it's Best Buy. I'm really surprised this has happened to my fathers iPod. I have an iPhone and I haven't had any problems at all.

  • HT1688 my iphone just completey shut off, and wont come back on, even when connected to the charger

    my iphone completely turned off and will not come back on, even when connected to the charger. how can i turn it back on?

    Hello ozzy9294,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    Display has no backlight or dark screen
    Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
    If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • My down arrow button fell off and wont' go back on

    My MBP is about a month old, and today the down arrow popped off, and won't seem to stay on.
    It made me realize that with the new design, the keyboard can't really be replaced, should I go to the Genius Bar, does anybody know what they might do to fix this?

    Hi jperkinski,
    Speaking from personal experience, many of the Genius Bars have "spare keys" laying around from old keyboard assemblies and top cases. I know I've had my MacBook keys replaced once or twice and in both cases the Mac Genius was able to get me a new keycap and the little plastic scissor that sits underneath it.
    Definitely head down to your nearest Genius Bar (make sure to make an appointment) and see if they can assist.

  • IPhone 4S switched itself off and wont come back on. Please help?

    Hi,
    My iPhone 4S has started switching itself off randomly over the last week but would then switch itself back on several minutes later by itself. However, last night it switched itself off and no matter what ive tried it wont come back on. Ive tried the home+power button, connected to itunes and not, connected to itunes with the home button pressed. I rang the Geek Squad as I have insurance and they could suggest anything more. Im loathed to take it back to the shop as all the sales assistant will do is send it off, give me a rubbish temporary phone/brick and it will take ages to come back. I would be grateful if anyone can help please?

    Hi, my phone eventually came back to life of its own accord the next day but with virtually no battery life even though I'd given it a full charge. After it came back on I plugged it in to be recharged but the back became very warm whilst the power drained quicker than usual after I unplugged it.
    I took it to the Apple store later that day and thankfully the phone switched itself off again right in front of one of the Genius assistants. He couldn't diagnose the problem and so gave me a brand new handset straight away. Credit to Apple there and I'm so glad I didn't take it back to the car phone warehouse where I bought it from. They would have sent it away for tests for weeks.
    I've had no problems with my new handset to date.
