My ipod nano 4th gen wont turn on ! help me !

okay i got this ipod nano off one of my friends. I plugged it into my own computer and the apple logo came onto the screen, then after a few seconds the main menu screen came on, but while doing this i accidently knocked the cord connecting my ipod to the computer, then my ipods screen went black and said "please eject before disonnecting " but as it slightly came out it was "disconnected" so i tried putting it back it but the ipod wouldnt turn on, only a blank black screen. I have tried all the steps from apple but none of them are working, please tell me whats wrong with the ipod and how i can fix it !!! i really need this ipod !!

Ipod Nano 4th Gen wont turn on.

My Ipod Nano 4th Generation will not turn on. I plug it into my computer and get nothing, i tried resetting it and that did nothing. I then plugged it back into my computer and i got an error message on Itunes saying that my Ipod was corrupt. I know can not get Itunes to recognize my Ipod, even for a 'corrupt' message. I have had my Ipod for over a year now and wondered if anyone els had had this problem and even better knew a way of fixing it. I cant afford a new Ipod and need one for work. If anyone could help me i would be very grateful. Thanks.

I have the same problem. I've had mine since Christmas and when I went to listen to it today the screen just shut down and it's unresponsive to anything. Even being plugged in to my computer. The only thing it does it make a clicking sound when I take it off hold.
I've also done the Five R's and none of them worked.

My ipod touch 4th gen wont turn on or charge and is in recovery mode.

my ipod touch 4th gen wont turn on or charge and it is in recovery mode but when it says preparing to restore it on itunes when i plug it up then the ipod disconnects from the computer and just shuts off again help me please. when it does act like its going to charge it doesnt charge and just brings up the "connect to itunes" thing.

Error 1604
This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for the error.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.

My ipod nano 5th gen. wont turn on and is not being recognized on my mac or itunes

my ipod nano 5th gen. wont turn on and is not being recognized on my mac or itunes

What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting? After leaving the Nano to sit and charge for at least 30 minutes, try resetting it by pressing and holding both the Select/Center and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear. You'll want to make sure the Hold Switch is not in the On position as well.

My iPod Nano 4th Gen wont charge, sync, or turn on anymore.

I have a blue iPod nano, 4th generation and it refuses to cooperate. I have the standard charge cord that plugs into the PC via USB and I have the wall adapter and when you plug it into either/or nothing happens. Right now it just keeps trying to reset itself over and over and over. I bought a brand new cord from The Source and plugged it in, still nothing. On top of all this, last week when I plugged it in, it gave me an error message saying "USB device not recognized." Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Did you already try the troublshooting assistant?
Apple - Support - iPod Troubleshooting Assistant
Or Restoring iPod to factory settings
Did you check the docking port for any kind of debris or lint?
If it is not recognized in iTunes, try this: iPod not appearing in iTunes and iTunes for Windows: Device Connectivity Tests

IPod Nano 7th gen wont turn on after a restore

I tried holding down the top and middle buttons and it wont work, this is a replacement one for an iPod Nano 7th gen with corrupted software, could it be the same problem?
During the restore it says it's restored and not to disconnect my iPod but then can't seem to find it so it repeats the restore again and again
Starting to get really annoyed with it now

Try restore your iPod. If didn't solve the problem you need an repair center.

Ipod Touch 4th gen wont turn on, or install drivers properly...

I Have an Ipod I had recived from my cousin to try and fix. The Ipod does not turn on but the first time I plugged it in, the drivers installed correclty, but I could not restore it (error 1600) Then I tried DFU mode, that didnt work. So I then uninstalled the driver to try and re-install it, now it shows up as 'Apple Mobile Device (DFU Mode)' with a yellow exclamation mark and won't properly install the driver or show up in Itunes. Any ideas on getting the Ipod out of DFU and properly reinstalling the drivers? I've already tried re-installing Itunes for this. I have also tried every possible solution on this website for the 1600 error. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

How long did you hold the buttons? Keep holding them until the Apple logo comes on. May take up to 30-sec. As far as Apple changing you, if it's under a year old, them may do it for free.
