My iPod touch 5 suddenly quit working and it won't charge.

My 5th Generation iPod touch suddenly quit working. I try to charge it and nothing happens.

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.

  • IPod Touch purchased apps quit working

    My purchased apps are no longer working.  They will not open.  When I select them they immediately exit on their own.  Can anyone help?

    I am having the same problem you had. I took it to the apple store and the clerk told me to call apple care, send in my ipod and have a replacement ipod sent back because I was having hardware defects. Apple care then emailed me letting me know that they discovered nothing wrong with the ipod and simply updated the software. They sent me my original ipod touch back. I recieved it, plugged it into my computer and guess what. Same Exact Promblem. They should have sent me a new ipod like they were originally instructed. Now I have to go back to the Apple store and start over.

  • In FCP7 my share option suddenly quit working, and I can't submit in compressor either.  Any suggestions for a solution?

    I have had FCP 7 installed on my Mac Pro since May 2011, It has worked flawlessly up until a couple weeks ago.  The "share" option has quit working on me.  Also, I am unable submit any jobs in compressor, the button is greyed out.  This has come entirely out of the blue and I'm stumped as to the best course of action.  Any suggestions?
    Thank you for your time.

    Thanks for the reply,  I actually used the digitalrebellion.com FCS Remover and reinstalled compressor and Qmaster and everything seems to be working properly again.
    Thanks again for your reply

  • My iPod Touch is in Recovery Mode and iTunes Won't Detect It ?

    iPod Touch 4G
    iOS 5.1
    Purchased 2010
    I Opened Up iTunes and Upgraded to iOS 5.1.1 from 5.1 as a "Download Only". The Next Morning I Go To My Computer Plug In My iPod and Update. My iPod Then Goes into Recovery Mode and When I Quit Recovery mode It goes straight to recovery mode again with and without the cable. iTunes does not detect it when i plus it in and neither does my computer, i have tried restarting apple mobile support and that does not work. The nearest apple store is 20 miles but i could go there.

    See if you can kick it out of recovery mode with RecBoot.

  • IPod Touch Stuck on Apple Screen and iTunes won't recognize

    I was resetting my ipod touch to clean it off to give to my sister. I thought it was plugged in, but turns out it was not, so the battery died while it was resetting itself. Now it is stuck on the apple screen. I have tried everything to reboot it and get iTunes to recognize the device, but nothing has worked. I had my computer cleaned, so iTunes is brand new and has never been hooked up to this iPod Touch. I need help please!!

  • Ipod touch vpn suddenly not working

    Hi, I have set up my ipod with a cisco vpn over ipsec and it worked fine for months now. The last 2 weeks I always got the message "can't connect to vpn-server". I use the same connection entries on my mac and the vpn works fine. I think I updatet the ios software on the ipod couple of weeks ago but I'm not sure if it really was the last time my vpn on the ipod worked :-/. Any suggestions?

    Yes, it's always a possibility.  You should check with their network administrator(s)/IT helpdesk.
    I'm not sure I understand your situtation. You are using a wireless router/modem in your dorm room and connecting to your school's provided VPN network? You should still be able to check with them to what if any details or configurations for the VPN have changed.

  • My ipod cannot be recognized by itunes and it won't charge

    I have a couple of problems with my 30g ipod. First of all it won't be recognized by my itunes( nothing is wrong with itunes at all). Second it has a sad icon. Third it has a charging icon but it is not animated and when i go and reset it, it just goes back to the sad icon.What should i do?

    You can take it to an Apple store if that's more convenient. They have been known to exchange faulty iPods on the spot.
    If you send it in, Apple usually aim for a one week turnaround, but it can be more (or less) depending on how busy they are.
