Try:

Where it says place the iPod in rcovery mode use this program
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into 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 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 Touch 4th Generation is crashing a lot. And the home button is not working.

    Recently my iPod would crash when I go on Youtube or any other app or it would be super slow. My current IOS is 6.1.3. The iPod starts working again when I turn it off and on but only for a couple of minutes. Also the home button does not work when I press it.

    To reset the iPod without the hardware buttons,
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected. You will have to rejoin wifi networks and repair BT devices
    Next
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                                
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • My ipod touch 5th generation will not turn on and the home button doesn't work. what do i do?

    Hello my name is Leslie and i would like to ask you guys a question on how to fix my ipod or what is wrong with it. My ipod touch 5th generation will not turn on and the home button doesn't work. what can i do to fix it ?

    Has the home button worked in the past, or is this been something that hasn't worked for some time? The only way to reset the device is with the sleep/wake (power) and home buttons together. Without it, you would have to wait until the battery dies and then plug it in to try and reset it. The Home button is used for several user troubleshooting steps. Without it, you cannot perform a reset, put the device into recovery mode, or place it in DFU mode. You need to get the home button repaired.

  • How much will Apple charge me to fix my Ipod Touch 4g? It won't turn on because I think the battery is bad, and the home button doesn't work anymore... and it's not under any warrenty anymore

    How much will Apple charge me to have my Ipod Touch 4g fixed? It won't turn on anymore more because I think the battery is probably bad, and the home button doesn't work either... its not under any warrenty either.

    Hello jabez2440,
    Not being able to use your device can certainly be frustrating. After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help with your iPhone. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice for the issue you are experiencing:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on - Apple Support
    Your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch may occasionally stop responding to buttons, switches, or touchscreen input and may exhibit one or more of these symptoms:
    Does not return to the Home screen after you press the Home button
    Does not wake from sleep after you press the Sleep/Wake button
    Does not turn on (or power on) when you press any button
    Does not start up past Apple logo
    Appears frozen or unresponsive
    Is unable to "Slide to Unlock" or "Slide to Power Off"
    To troubleshoot these symptoms:
    If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    BobbyD

  • My iPod touch 5th generation won't turn on or charge and the home button is broken, how do I get it working?

    I've tried buying new chargers and plugging them into different outlets around the house but the iPod will not respond to anything.  The home button is broken so I can't reset the iPod by holding both the home and lock screen buttons down, and it won't even connect to iTunes when plugged into my computer.  How can I fix this issue? The iPod never overheated or anything, and it still had charge left before it quit responding.

    Unfortunately for you, the home button is necessary for reset and also to put the device into recovery mode or DFU mode. Since that is not working, and the device is not recognized in iTunes, check the charging port area. There could be dust, lint, etc, that is blocking the connection for charging, and connecting to iTunes. If nothing seems wrong there, then make an appointment at the Genius Bar of the nearest Apple Store or Authorized Apple Service provider, depending on your location. There is no other option.
