My iPod Touch is stuck on the screen you get when your updating from trying to update with old iTunes

So I was trying to update my 4th gen iPod touch when it canceled the update and told me that I needed to update iTunes. So while I was trying to do so, which didn't even work by the way, I noticed that my iPod was stuck on the screen that you get when updating your iOS. The bar was about a quarter way filled when it froze. I'm not sure how to fix this or what to google to find a solution so I came here. I'm actually leaving it alone to try to see if it runs out of battery since after all it has to be wasting battery from being on all the time. Please help!

Hey rdbreunig,
Thanks for the question. If you issue is not yet resolved, it may be necessary to restore your iPod touch in recovery mode:

My iPod touch is stuck. I can't get it to power off. all that comes up on the screen is the Apple Logo. Is there anything I can do to fix this problem?

You may need to hold the sleep/wake button and the home button until the apple logo appears. Or anther thing you can try is draining the battery until the battery is dead. That's what i tried and worked. You may need to do those things more than 2 times. OH anther thing is you can try connecting you ipod to your computer and see if it appears on itunes. If those don't work you can send it to apple. So that's what helped me I hope I answered your question.

My iPod touch is stuck on the Apple logo screen. What do I do??

Hello Melissa,
Have you tried a hard reset yet? To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear. You may need to try this more than once.
Any luck there?
