Try:                                              
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mod
   http://www.wikihow.com/Put-an-iPod-or-iPhone-into-DFU-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 another cable or 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.

    Hey jtom234412,
    Thanks for the question. Based on the information you have provided, it sounds like your device is not detected in iTunes for Windows. The following resource may help resolve this issue:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1538
    Furthermore, if your device is in recovery mode (displaying an iTunes symbol, with a plug), see the relevant information under Step 5.
    Thanks,

  • Ipod touch won't play songs from the beginning

    After upgrading to version 4.0.2, my ipod touch won't play music from the beginning. This happens no matter I play music in iTunes or using my ipod touch without connecting to the computer. I restarted the device and this still happens. What can I do about it? Can anyone help?

    Hello lc_llc,
    Double check each track to make sure the *Remember Playback Position* option has not been abled from under the Options tab of the track's *Get Info* window in iTunes.

    Hello hskod,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information, take a look at:

    You can keep trying to restore the device from backup until you remember the password. If you're having trouble, try:
    Leaving the password field blank
    Your Apple ID password
    Your computer account password, if you have one
    Email passwords you may have used
    Your Wi-Fi network password
    Website passwords you may have used
    A password for hard-disk encryption software, if you use it

  • My ipod touch 2g a1288 wont restore. The download takes ages then ipod puts itself back in2 DISABLED mode, HELP!!

    Ok so my ipod is making me really angry. If I don't figure this thing out today after trying for so long I think I'm going to take my car and repeatedly run the thing over until its in a million pieces.
    Right now heres the long story which ill try keep kinda short but I do need to explain whats happened thus far
    Ipod touch (2G), Mondel: A1288 which has gone into disabled mode and is basically useless at the moment.
    Now I've done the thing where you hold the two buttons while plugged into laptop until itunes detects ipod in recovery mode. Then I try to hit restore, this starts up the download/ update thing which will not download because here in the dark ages of New Zealand our internet is slow. So because its so slow the ipod touch takes itself back into disabled mode! ahhhhhhhhhhhhh so FRUSTRATING
    Now I'm aware that I can pre-download the firmware (which will still probably take ages but may save the ipod from timing out and going back into disabled screen) and then just hit control and select it when ipod is detected in recovery mode by itunes. The only thing wrong with doing this however, is when I go to the site to get the firmware from http://http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/ and look in the drop down menu of 2G ipod touches, I don't see my model listed there so I'm wondering what firmware I can download for the A1288? Is it compatible with a different version? because it wasn't even listed in the drop-down menu of ipod touches.
    I just wan't the thing going again! they put these things into technology that make it useless because they know the average joe like me will just give up trying to fix it and buy a new one. Well not this time, if I cant fix this, I'm going to run the thing over and that will be that!
    Many thanks for reading my speal, I hope somebody can help

    lol yea when i inserted the link i just copied and pasted thats why that happend... Lets try again... http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/
    Anyways when I go to it theres a drop-down list and you select the one you want and I know the number next to it identifies the model but the thing is they don't have my model listed so my main question is, what version eg. 2.1.1. or 2.2.1 etc. etc. etc. etc. will work with my model of ipod touch which is the 2g Model A1288?
    Does anybody know? Does it work with any firmware thats for 2G ipod touches or do i have to get firmware thats model specific?

  • I want to download the new software on my ipod touch on a different computer to what i normally use, but it keeps telling me i will loose all my downloads. Is it possible to make this computer the main computer to sync my ipod?

    I want to download the new software on my ipod touch, on a different computer to what i usually sync my ipod to, and it keeps telling me i will lose all my downloads. i it possible to download the update on this computre, without deleting my information, and making this computer the main computer to sync my ipod to?

    A manual backup will help in your situation.
    Make sure your new computer is authorized in iTunes. Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod, right click on it in the device list and choose backup.
    This will save data, pictures and settings to itunes. See what's included in this backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946
    Transfer your purchases the same way to copy all apps and bought media from the Store to your computer.
    Set up at least one contact and event on your computer to be able the merge your calendars and contacts after your iPod got wiped during the first sync.
    The rest of the data can be restored from the backup you made.
    Restoring: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in iTunes and transferred your purchases.
    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0
    Apps can be downloaded again for free, in some countries music as well: Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • When i turn my ipod touch 4g on it goes from the apple logo to the white wheel then to a blank white screen, please help

    After using itunes to restore it i turned my ipod touch on and it stayed on the apple logo for a few minutes then it would change to a spinning wheel on a black screen then the screen would turn white and the process will repeat. I can still put it in dfu mode and recovery mode but they don't help. So hopefully someone in this community can help me. And this all started when i updated it to ios 6.1.3 from 6.1.2. and also my computer and itunes dont recognize it

    - Try on another computer

  • Does "restore from the back up of" transfer ALL data (pictures,songs,apps) from the old ipod?

    I have recently got a new ipod touch 4th generation from my apple warranty and I am currently setting my new ipod up through itunes.  I have come across the stage where it say "Restore from the backup of (my old ipods name)" and was wondering whether this would transfer all the data (pictures, songs, apps etc) from my old ipod to my new ipod? Thank-you

    Just for clarification, the apps themselves, music and photos synced to the iPod have to be on your computer to be preent on your iPod after restoring from backup.  The backup does not contain those items, then are always synced from the computer,

  • Why is my iPod touch prompting me to restore to the factory settings? Some of my apps have stopped responding. Is this why? I plugged my iPod touch onto my iTunes account and a message popped up saying that iTunes couldn't read the iPod

    I plugged up my iPod touch to my iTunes library and it said that it couldnt recognize the iPod and the message told me to restore my iPod? Why would it prompt me to restore the factory settings? Also if I restore the iPod will it erase all of my music even though my music is in my library?
    Some of my apps stopped working would this be the reason I need to restore my iPod? I am scared to restore the settings and lose all of my music.
    I also put all of my apps in the utility folders, would this have anything to do with my iPod needing to be restored?

    Becasue something got corrupted on the iPod. It happens sometimes. Just restore the iPod to factory settings/new iPod and then try restoring from your backup.

  • If I back up my ipod  touch 5th gen and restore, will the new copy be exactly the same?

    I want to update my ipod to ios 8, but ther is not enough room. I am not willing to delete apps, so I figured that I would backup and restore after the update, which I have never done, and I was wondering if the restore would save everything, like game data and folder locations, so it would be like it never changed. If someone could please clarify, that would be great

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps and other iTunes purchases will be automatically downloaded. Non-iTunes purchases like music from CD will be restored. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:        
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store         

  • My ipod touch won't update apps from the device.

    So when I try to update my apps on my 4th generation ios 5 ipod touch, it says that I don't have enough storage to update them, but when i check icloud it says i have 5gb of storage. Please help.

    The amount of storage in iCloud is different from the amount of storage available on your iPod Touch.  iCloud is more or less used as a backup for your content.  So you'll need to free up space on your iPod touch by removing a few things before you can update your Apps.

  • New ipod 30gig, how do you restore from the i pod setup?

    I just got a new black 30 gig ipod, when i plugged it in to update songs it did,when i plugged it in again to update more songs, it began to update songs i had previously updated, and now no songs are present on my ipod. this is very frustrating, now the ipod doesnt connect to itunes and the folder with exclamation point shows up after i unplug it from the computer. everytime Is there a difference between ipod setup and ipod updater, because i cant find ipod updater and ipod setup does not provide the restore button for me. what should i do guys!!!!?
    -mike

    Yes, iPod setup and iPod Updater are different. One is an application (iPod Updater).
    Was iPod Setup coming up every time you connected your iPod?
    Either way, see if this helps...
    First, make sure the software on your computer and iPod is up to date...
    iTunes
    iPod Updater
    Update iPod's Software
    Try the steps listed here...
    Strange iPod Behavior
    Also, take a look at these...
    iPod shows a folder with exclamation point
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93736
    See this to restore your iPod...
    Restore iPod
    The iPod Updater is available under Start-->All Programs-->iPod-->iPod Updater 2006-06-28-->iPod Updater 2006-06-28
    If the iPod Updater doesn't recognize your iPod, try putting it into Disk Mode first...

    And then connect it to the computer and restore it.

  • Ipod touch shows up under devices on the left in itunes, but only shows "ipod" to the right

    I have an ipod touch 4th generation 64 gb. I connected to iTunes using usb cord. normally, the device shows up in the left hand column of itunes. then on the right, you have the ipod info - summary- music- apps, etc. however, the only thing i get on the right is just the word "ipod" nothing else. no links or tabs or even a sync button. please help

    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 the screen blacks out or 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.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow 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."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

  • Lost iPod touch few days ago. Tried the locater through iCloud but it says offline. I am assuming the power is off.  Anyideas to locate it

    Lost iPod Touch few days ago. Tried iCloud but says offline. Any ideas to recover?

    When it is off, it cannot recieve any signal.  So sending a signal would not help.
    Off is off.  No power.
    Sorry.
    I hope you are able to find your ipod.
    Good Luck.

  • I can't restore from the back-up file "bookmarks-2013-03-31". "File not supported".

    I'm using Firefox in Swedish, but I think these would be the terms in English:
    I did a back-up of my bookmarks in Firefox before I formated my PC, which resulted in this file: "bookmarks-2013-03-31". It's not an HTML-file and I think neither an JSON-file. When I'm now trying to "recover" the bookmarks from this file, it say's that the file-type isn't supported. What the heck?!? A back-up file that isn't supported by it's own program??!?
    (I just did a quick and simple back-up, and am now trying to restore it. It shouldn't be any problem, as I see it).

    I also was not able to restore my old bookmarks, which I tried to do so through the backups in the "Old Firefox Data" folder. I attempted to open the file bookmarks-2013-07-02.json but got the message that "To open this file, Windows needs to know what program to use. What do you want to do? 1) Use PC Health Advisor to find a program to open this kind of file or 2) Use Windows to manage this kind of file." When I click the first option, I get a list of software application options I can download in three categories, but I already have at least one in each category in my system. When I click the second option , I get sent to a Google search page that lists all kinds of websites about JSON files, none of which seems to provide a clear route to a solution.
    I just tried adding quotes around the file name as per the above suggestion, but I got the message that a file name cannot include quotes. Also, for some reason, my file only contains the title and date added, none of the stuff in between that apparently is also supposed to be there.
    In any case, shouldn't I be able to restore old bookmarks simply by clicking an older backup version under "Restore" under "Show All Bookmarks"? I also tried this, three times in fact, but got no results.
