You need to connect it to iTunes and restore it. If necessary, manually place the iPod in recovery mode first using the instructions in this Apple support document

My ipod touch is stuck on the home screen, will not respond. Displays a gray background with the ipod logo, sliders are unresponsive. Bottom slider displays many different languages, none of them english. Maybe a virus or malware?? Restoring with itunes does not work, neither does holding down the home/sleep buttons to reset.

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's screen says "Connect to iTunes" and when I connect it to iTunes it's telling me to restore, but I don't want to restore/lose everything on it. The "Connect to iTunes" message won't go away.

When I plugged my iPod into my macbook, a window for an iPod Touch software update popped up, so I clicked update, then it said that my iPod was over capacity or something similar to that, so basically I didn't have enough room for the update, which I thought was fine. So then once I unplugged my iPod, I was unable to use it. The screen was telling me to connect to iTunes (how it does when you first purchase an iPod, and turn it on for the first time.) So, I then connected it to iTunes and it told me I had to restore my iPod, it gave me no option other than to click "restore" But I don't want to lose everything that's on my iPod...but now I can't use it because the screen is still telling me to connect to itunes. How do I get out of restoring it?

If you have a graphic of iTunes and a cable displayed on your iDevice then it is in Recovery mode.
Check this to try an "exit"

My iPod touch is stuck on the apple screen, and will not show on the computer.

I went to pick it up and try to turn it on, and it wouldnt work. I called and they told me to press power and home buttons and hold. It worked, now it is stuck on the home screen.

Is it stuck on the Home screen (Screen showing all your apps) or on the screen that shows an apple?

My 3rd gen ipod touch is stuck on the "connect to itunes" screen

I have a passcode on it so I'm pretty much just stuck there.
I've tried restoring it, but the processes that were given in the links I found didn't work.
I've also noticed that when I'm turning my ipod off and it get to the power down screen, the touch screen is unresponsive.
Any help is appreciated, thank you in advance.

Try restorng the iPod to factoery defaults/new iPod. If still have the problem you very likely have a hardware problem. If you have an Apple store nearby, I would make an appointment at their Genius Bar.

My ipod touch is stuck on the black screen with apple logo?

Yesterday I restored my Ipod Touch back to factory settings...thought everything was fine until I realized my wifi option was grey and unclickable and read "no wifi", so I went to settings and hit "restore network settings". The ipod shut off and wont turn on since. Ive tried restarting multiple times, all it does is stay on the black screen with the apple logo. Help please?

If it's off you should push the top right button and the home button for a few seconds. Rebooting like that always worked for me!

My iPod touch is stuck on the loading screen. Help?

I was on an app and it stopped working and went to a screen with a loading symbol that was not moving. I restarted my iPod and now all that comes up is the Apple logo. After a few minutes, the Apple logo will have that loading symbol with it and the loading sign will keep filling in until it is full and white over the Apple logo. I let it sit while I went to work and when I came back, the battery had died like I had hoped. I plugged it into my computer, but it is doing the same thing again. I am very frustrated and have no idea what to do!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
