I have a iPod touch 3rd generation and it will not turn on or charge.

This iPod, when ever I turn it on all I get is the apple logo. Then about five minuts later, it tells me to plug it up, you know, the low battery simbole. But the kicker is that it is always pluged up when it is doing this! Can you tell me how to restor this iPod? I've tried force recovery but I discontinued it from my account. I've heard if you plug up to a computer it will charge better, didn't work. Thanks for helping me. Cameron44

My iPod touch 5th generation battery indicator does not update when being charged (Updated to iOS 8)

Note that the iPod touch 5th generation was updated to iOS 8. When I connect my charger to my iPod touch, for the first time, the battery indicator does not update when connected to a power source. Instead of being charged, it says that the battery is being depleted. Please fix this issue. Thank you!

Okay I have an apple IPod touch 4g 8gb and it will not turn on or charge or even show that the ipod needs to be charged so I am wondering if my IPod needs to be sent in to be fixed or if I should get a new one or if there is a possible way to recover it??

This is the first time it shut off and would not charge what so ever. The battery was charging and then it went blank and now it has been blank for awhile is there any possible way that the ipod itself can be turned on or even show up the needs to charge screen I do believe that the battery has gone bad and would like to know if this would cost to be replaced sense its not within the one year warenty????
If it does cost me I would like to know how much and where could I get it replaced at or have it referbished??????

Try here:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
Apple will exchange it for a refurbished one for this price.

My iPod Touch 5th generation (running IOS 8.1.2)...

My iPod Touch 5th generation (running IOS 8.1.2), when connected to my iMac (running OS X Yosemite) will charge, but is not regained, or for that matter even noticed by the iTunes application. The iPod will sync to dropbox when connected, but nothing else. On the device, it will ask if to "trust" the iMac, I naturally hit that it should, but still no change.

See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:

paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

Am connected to orange fr, i can d/load emails etc but cannot open any webpages, Ipod Touch 5th version, latest IOS installed. Any advise please. First time I have experienced this as my Ipod works immediately elsewhere

I am connected to Orange fr, I can download emails etc but cannot open any webpages. Ipod Touch 5th vers, latest IOS installed, any advice would be most welcome. This is the first time I have had this problem as my Ipod works immediately everywhere else. My laptop does not show this problem using the same orange provider, so its obviously some setting in the Ipod :-(

Try this:
1. Double-click the Home button to reveal Task Bar at bottom
2. Hold the Safari app down for a second or two until you see the minus sign
3. Tap the minus sign to close app
4. Re-launch the app and test
Note: If necessary close all apps in the Task Bar

Twice experienced an unusual problem with my iPod touch 5th generation running iOS 8.0: crashes and disables power up. HOME and POWER pressed together to reset.

iPod touch 5th generation running iOS 8.0. iOS crashed twice, disabling power up. The only recovery was pressing and holding the home and power buttons together for several seconds. The iPod touch then went into restore mode. I've never experienced, heard or read of an iOS crash preventing normal power up: device has known battery charge, does not respond to pressing power button or connecting to AC charger.

That happens some times. Try:
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem/it still keeps recurring, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Ipod touch 5th generation update iOS 8 Battery Life

I have recently upgraded to iOS 8 about three days ago and my battery charging time has become longer. It now takes a couple of hours to charge from 20% to 40-50%. It now takes forever to change the battery from red to green. I use to be able to see the difference in color in about 15 to 20 minutes. Also, when I plug in my ipod at 50% battery life, I go back to check on it and the battery is less than 20% even thought it was 50% and plugged in. The amount of battery at the top of the battery does not seem to increase even when plugged in. Should I take my ipod to Best Buy or an Apple store? or could I fix it myself or possibly wait until a new update happens? Anything on tips or directions will be greatly appreciated to fix this! Thanks!

I had an ipod touch 5th generation. I plugged it in at 18% and checked back 5 hours later, 47%. I checked six hours after that and it said 96%. I was looking at it and wondering why it was doing that and i noticed a cosmetic issue i haven't seen before on this model, it BENT. I went to an apple store, explaned the the problem, and since I had it for less than a year, they replaced it for free. I was running IOS 8 and then 8.0.2. I never had a charge problem with ios 7 so the one I got from the store came with 7.1.1. I believe the battery was swollen.

Should i upgrade my ipod touch 5th generation to iOS 8.0.2?

so far i have the iOS 7 latest update for my ipod touch 5th generation. However, i noticed that iOS 8.0.2 is released. i know that the first iOS 8 update crashed a lot as well as decrease speed, and i'm not sure if the new update fixed it. Would my ipod still function at the same speed?

I upgraded all my devices to iOS 8 with no problems except slightly faster battery drain.
Note that some users always have problems with any iOS update so just because you hear of problems does not mean it is any worse than other update. It is not worse than other updates.
iOS 8 does included some better security features so I would update

Resetting a disabled iPod Touch 5th generation through recovery mode not working.

I bought a disabled iPod Touch 5th generation at a garage sale. I looked up how to reset it and followed every step given and it was working. It said there were about 82 minutes and it was restoring for about until 70 minutes and then a pop-up comes up saying it can't restore it because it has a password on it! Please help me.

Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
- Next try the manual install method of:
iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.
- Then try on another computer

Has anyone else has seen this problem with their iPod touch 5th Generation with iOS 7.0.4. My screen started making flashing white lines across the screen, then went dim, then pixeled with purples

The ipod will show flashing white lines across the screen, going down, it then does somthing where the screen will dim down but its not like when the backlight goes on and its about to lock. It dims the background of your ipod and the icons and letters kind of all look defined. Then the ipod gets all pixelized and it has big boxes on pixels and its all differnt colors like purples and greens, red, etc. then it turns right off and restarts itself less than 5 seconds later. These things happen really fast but when it does it's really weird. It first happened 3 times in a row, Its still continuing to happen but i can manually turn off my ipod by holding the lock button down and not even 30 seconds later it's like its possessed and it turns on by itself. I talked to somone on appel and they told me to back it up and restore it. I restored it and as soon as the process ended and tuirned on like a brand new ipod and like clockwork the glitch happened instantly. It did it a couple of times throughout the night and i kept having to watch it so i can keep turning it off manually because it continues to turn on by itself. I talked to 3 different people on Apple Support and they couldnt even find an answer for me. It's so weird.

- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

Also,
If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
