My ipod touch 4 does not turn on, my PC does not recognize it when I plug it in, and gets hot.

I have an ipod touch 4 that won't turn on. When I plug it into my PC, my PC does not recognize the device. Finally, when I plug in my ipod touch to charge, my ipod ends up getting hot. Possible solutions please thank you!

Try the remaining items of the following. The hotness tends to say a hardware problem like maybe a bad battery.                                               
- 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.

    Have you tried resetting your iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Next would be to unsync the music and then try syncing the songs to the iPod
    - Last would be to restore from backup.

  • Ipod touch won't turn on, just shows the apple logo - even when plugged into Itunes?

    I have an Ipod touch 8GB - it's virtually never been used. I have tried to charge it up but nothing happens - it just displays an apple logo. I have plugged it into Itunes but again nothing happens. Any ideas?
    Thanks K.

    i  wanted to ask whether the camera for ipod touch comparable to a digital camera? if not are there apps available that can turn it into a digital camera? i want to buy an ipod touch and i like photography....what should i do? plz suggest

    The iPod touch has a very rudimentary camera.  It has only a 0.6 MP resolution, no optical zoom, no flash, etc.   There is no app that can improve this as it is limited by the hardware. So it is not a replacement for a digital camera (nor even for an iPhone whose camera has a 5.0 MP resolution.

    You can try contacting apple customer service http://www.apple.com/contact but usually all app purchases are final and not refundable.

  • TS1702 what is the point of the Ipod touch(2nd generation)?Every single app Is not compatible with it.Seems like a complete ripoff to me.My phone was alot cheaper and does way more.Very frustrated with this device.

    what is the point of the Ipod Touch(2nd generation)?Every single app is not compatible with it.Am I missing something?My cell phone cost 1/2 as much and does way more.This is why I don't normally purchase any apple products.Overpriced flashlight,that's about all it does.

    There are still some apps compatible, with the 2G. Also, since September, Apple has now allowed download the last version of apps that were compatible with the 2G but have been updated to no longer be compatibles
    To more easily find compatible apps:
    iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
    Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app

  • While my iPod touch was connected to a speaker dock, I found it very hot. Not it will not turn on. I have tried the reset options and they do not work. Neither iTunes nor any of my computers recognizes it when I plug in the usb. Is there a way to fix?

    Now it will not turn on. I have tried all the reset instructions with no luck. Neither iTunes nor any of my computers will recognize it when I plug it in. Is there any chance to get it working or am I out of luck? Please help if you can since I cannot afford to purchase a new one at this time. Thanks.

    Your iPhone is in recoverty mode at the moment so to possibly get it back up and running you would need to do a restore as you have been trying. Follow the steps in the article below for the specific error messages you have been receiving. If after following all steps the issue remains book an appointment at a local Apple Retail Store to have the iPhone evaluated.

  • My Ipod touch 8GB cannot turn on

    My Ipod touch 8GB cannot turn on even when I press the home button and sleep/wake up button together as instructed. It keeps on showing the sign whereby need to connect to Itunes. However, we connected it but it still does not turn on and the home screen never came up! >_<

    Is it still charging? If yes, make sure it has been charged for at least 15min, then connect in recovery mode, explained in this article: iOS: Unable to update or restore
