My ipod touch flashed once and wont turn back on

I was on the schools wifi getting on youtube and my ipod screen flashed once and then went blank and will not turn on to charge (i had it plugged into the wall and the computer 2 different times for almost 2 hours each and nothing happened), will not turn on when hooked up to the computer when i try to restore it, it will not come on at all for anything
Is it possiblle the school technichians hacked my ipod while i was on their wifi and disabled it?
Ive tried holding the home and power buttons at the same time for 10 seconds. (didn't work)
I tied holding both buttons for 15 seconds and releasing the home button. (didn't work)
And i tried holding both buttons for 2 minutes. (didn't work either)
Please throw any ideas at me that you think would work.

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.
- 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 is froze and wont turn off. any ideas?

My ipod touch is frozen and wont turn off. I need help everything ive tried isnt working!

Just had this similiar issue with my iPod. Simple steps found through the Apple Support Website. Follow this link:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1320, or follow instructions listed below to reset a frozen iPod nano/classic/color display/click-wheel, etc.:
1) Toggle the Hold switch on and then off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again)
2) Press and hold the Menu and center buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears, about 6 to 8 seconds. This step may need to be repeated. (*sidenote...I also found that the iPod would not respond/reset when it was connected to my computer. It just continued to state that it was connected and needed to be ejected before disconnecting. I pulled the link cable out of the frozen iPod and followed the above steps and it reset normally.)
Hope this helps...

Power button flashes once and wont turn on.

When I press the power button on the computer the power button light flashes once and won't turn on when I plug the a.c. adapter in it shows that it's charging and plugged in, but anytime I press the power button it flashes once but will never turn on! :/ I tried unplugging the adapter hold the power button for 30 seconds and connecting the adapter back to the computer but it does the same thing.. Any advice would be AMAZING! Thanks !
The computer is compaq Presario cq62-215dx

Remove everyhting from your pc. INCLUDING KEYBOARD. and try again. On 2 different occassions the keyboard was to blame. Some spill on keyboard caused motherboard not to power up.
Remove KB, Ram, Hdd, DISPLAY (Lcd cable might be shorting as well) etc.etc. Leave motherboard alone but power sithc connected. Even if you disconnect the fan cable it would help. If you see anything on your screen after you removed fan too then turn it off immediately and connect the fan back and try again then add up other components one by one. If none works then i am sorry the board you have is faulty.
or it may need a bios recovery.

My ipod randomly shut off and wont turn back on

My ipod touch shut off last night while i was charging it and it wont turn back on

Please tell me that it has NEVER been jailbroke. If it has never been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, read this.

My ipod touch 3G overheated and wont turn on at all

So I usually park my car in the garage but the other day I had to leave it out. I left the ipod plugged inside the car forgetting to take it in. It was about 100 degrees outside and the car was parked in the sun all day and all night. The next morning I get in the car and realize i left it out and the heat. I picked it up and it was like there was heat generating from just the screen. Now every time I press on any part of the screen it makes a cracking noise.

Try:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
The heat may have damaged the iPod. An appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store may be in order.

My ipod touch just froze and wont come back to life...

Sometimes it freezes during the use of an app, but then i just hold the button on the top left and it goes to the black screen, then the apple icon appears and then its all good. But now it's just black and no matter what I do, it won't change from the black screen. It connects to iTunes, and it charges because you hear that click that happens when it starts to charge but the black screen continues to appear. It's glowing, so it's not dead. What can I do? Should I go to an Apple Store, have them look at it. Should I restore it, and if I do, will it keep all my songs in iTunes?

try holding down both the home button and the hold button. if that doesn't help try to restore the ipod touch. as long as your songs and everything are in the itunes library your songs should be fine.

Given the information supplied, it sounds very similar to what happened to my wife's 4. Locked up...came back on with a blank (bluish) screen...could here emails and text coming through. It would get very hot as well. Our local apple store tried two times to rescue it, ultimately rendering it complete inoperable. I'm sorry to say in our case we had to buy a refurb and trade in the phone for $150, which actually wasn't a bad deal.
There could be other information I'm missing, but I would start with seeing if apple can restore your phone. If they can't, then I'm pretty sure it's dead.
