My iPod touch 5th gen won't turn on after updating to iOS 8 using the computer,help!?
On my computer (using windows) I tried to update my iPod touch 5th gen to iOS 8 using iTunes, using this website http://www.gottabemobile.com/2014/09/17/the-secret-to-skipping-long-ios-8-downlo ads-and-problems/ as a guide.
It kept coming up with this error http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201442 after the update.
Now my iPod won't turn on and it shows the charger with the lightening with an arrow above it pointing to the iTunes logo.
So i plugged it into iTunes but i don't know what i'm supposed to do, any help?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try 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.
- 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 5th gen won't turn on
My iPod touch 5th gen was working fine and was fully charged and then it just shut off and won't turn back on. There has been no damage to it from anything and there was no reason it should've shut off. I tried holding down the lock button for a minute and I also tried plugging it in..still nothing. I can't hold down the home button and lock button at the same time because the home button has been stuck down for about a month. What else can I try to make it work?
Turn on without Home/Power Button

I've had my iPod touch 5th gen for a little over half a year now, haven't had any issues until now. Yesterday it randomly shut down, and when I try to turn it back on, the apple logo shows up but the iPod just stays on that screen, it doesn't turn on any further. I think I might need to restore it to the factory settings to get it to work again, but I'm concerned that I'm going to lose all my photos. I found the backup folder in my computer but it doesn't have any files in it. I have over 600 pictures on my iPod and I really don't want to lose them all. Is there a way that I can either get my iPod to work again without restoring, or a way that I can extract the photos without the iPod actually being in functioning condition? The computer doesn't recognize the device when it gets connected via the USB. Thanks!
- Connect the iPod to your computer and try to make a backup
iOS: How to back up and restore your content
- Next reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
and try making a backup again. If you can't then there is no way of getting the info off the iPod unless data recovery company can do it. Not cheap.
- If photos are in an existing iPod backup (iTune>Preferences>Devices for iTunes backup or an iCloud backu) then restore from that backup. See the restore topic of:
iOS: How to back up
- If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:
iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer -
This has happened to me about 4 times now. I just got a brand new iPod touch (5th Gen) after replaceing my 4th gen iPod. I havent had it for a month, so its still brand new. The only thing is that when the iPod runs out of battery it turns off (duh) but it doesnt turn back on when you plug it in to charge. When I noticed that the iPod doesnt turn on, and I hit the power button, lines appear on my screen. They are lines that run up and down the screen from left to right. I try factory resets, setting resets, restoring my iPod. But this issue keeps coming up. I honestly dont know what to do. This thing is brand new and its acting up on me. Should I take it to my apple store? Should I just put up with it. I have tried everything and at this point I dont know what to do anymore. Please help!!
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Since you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem
If the iPod is defective within warranty (you indicate it is) and not abused Apple will exchange it on the spot. -
My ipod touch 5th generation was purchased brand new yesterday. After charging it and loading my music i went to plug it into my icoustic dock which I got as a bundle with the ipod only to have my ipod screen go blank and now it refuses to turn on, reset or get recognised by my computer or itunes. I have the latests software as it was only uploaded last night. Should I be taking it back to the shop? Has anyone else had a similar problem?

My iPod touch 5th generation won't turn on after the new iOS update
I've just updated my iPod touch 5th generation to the iOS 8.1.1. (or whatever the newest update is) but once it updated, it now won't turn back on. I've tried plugging it into multiple chargers and computers just in case it wasn't charged, and tired turning it on, but all I get is the apple logo and nothing's happening. What can I do? I haven't backed it up this month and I don't want to loose all my stuff. Thanks.
Try the following. It is very likely that the iPod will have to be erased:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

HELP. Ipod Touch 3rd gen won't switch on after updating to OS 4
So here's the thing. I tried to download and install the new OS 4 (i think i had iOS 3.1 before) to my Ipod Touch 3rd gen. Since it was taking a bit too long, i left it hooked up to the laptop for an hour to do some errands. When I got back, the laptop was on standby mode. I checked Itunes and it had this prompt saying update failed or an error occurred (#1602 I think but I don't know what it meant that time). I then checked my Ipod Touch and it was switched off. So we figured maybe the battery got drained while we were gone and tried to plug it via AC charge for 10 minutes. Nothing happened. I tried to hook it up to the laptop, no luck there either. The charger worked fine for an Ipod video we also have. I'm scouring the webs for what to do, Im getting worried. hope someone can help me in this. Thank you.
(and additional question. I'm here in the Philippines right now but this Ipod Touch was my sister's, I think she bought this last year in the US. She just sent it to me this month. So if I take this to the local Apple store, can they do something about my problem? Assuming I cant fix anything by tomorrow. Thanks again folks.)First I would charge it for an hour and then:
- Have you tried resetting the iPod:
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 place the ipod n recovery mode and then try to restore it via iTunes. For recovery mode see:

IPod touch 4th gen won't turn on after screen replacement?
I took apart the iPod about 4-5 days before I put the new screen on it, and I don't remember if I turned it off before removing the screen. I got the screen and I have been working on it since Thursday the 23.. It will not turn on and I am getting frustrated. I have tried the "Locate the 3.7v and ground it." thing.. It sparked once, I connected it to the power and it didn't turn on either. Please any help, anything that helps please! Thanks in advance.
Also, my computer does not read the iPod when it is plugged in. The iPod acts as if its turned off but doesn't turn on at all.. Any help please! Thanks!Take it apart and make sure that all connections are correctly made and that there are not any broken conductors in any ribbon cables.

Ipod touch 5th gen battery dies super fast after updating to 8.1
I updated my iPod touch to 8.1 over the weekend. Now when I charge it, it dies extreamly fast. I let it sit on the charger overnight to get a full charge. In the morning I took it off the charger and drove to work while listening to music. After only 30 min of driving my iPod was down to 50% battery. I then left it locked (no programs running in the background, Airplane mode is always on) after work it was dead. Is this problem becuase of the iOS update or is it my battery is just bad?
% battery is not accurate on an iPod. Large fluctuations in % battery is normal.
The test is how long can you play a video after charging fro at least 6 hours. 4-5 hours seems to be the norm

IPod Touch 5th Gen Won't Wi-Fi Sync
My iPod Touch 5th gen won't sync over wi-fi while the two other iPhones and one iPad in the house will. My iPod Touch 5th gen isn't even recognized in iTunes despite having "Sync with this iPod over wi-fi" checked. The "Sync Now" button is grayed out on my iPod as well. What's going on?

IPod touch 5th gen won't restore
Hi
Brief background:
My sister got a new iPod touch 5th gen and decided to set a password on it, she then somehow managed to forget the password on the same day as she set it.
So I looked online (including on here) and it seemed I could just 'restore it' by putting it into restore mode (which I did successfully) and everything seemed to go as expected, until it had downloaded the restore file (iOS 6.0.1 I think) then computer said something along the lines "can't restore as password is on ipod" but all the website I see say that you just connect it up, put it in restore mode, and no matter what it will restore to original factory settings.
Am I missing something? Please help ASAP as she would really like it working again, and yes she has been told of for doing such a silly thing.
Additional information:
I have tired this 4 times, including one time just leaving it plugged in the whole time(instead of unplugging it when turning it off and plugging it back in when Turing it on [at start of recovery process])
It was disabled for 1 hour, have tired doing recovery process when disabled and when not disabled.
Both of the above still give the same "must enter password to recovery" type of message.
As brand new. iPod has not yet been synced with any computer, have tired Apples own ways for this and still get same type message.
Thanks a lot, hopefully there is a solution, or something (preferably simple) I am missing.Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

Ipod touch 5th gen will not turn on- home button stopped working months ago
Hi,
So I have a ipod touch 5th gen and it suddenly turned off and will not turn on.
Okay, I just want to say first I know the answer would be to hold the top button and the home button at the same time until it turns on.
The thing is, my centre home button stopped workings months ago so I was using the assistive touch.
What happened:
I was using my ipod and the battery was almost full. When I tried to use it 10 minutes later it was turned off and I can't turn it on. I tried plugging it on my computer and it will not recognize it.I also tried holding only the power button on top for a while but nothing happened.
Any ideas?Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
Ignore the reset and when it says place the iPod in recovery mode
Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:
