My iPod touch keeps restarting

and wont go to the lock screen, all it can do is show the apple logo and after two minutes it will turn off. I tried going into recovery mode but it hasn't worked.

If not successful try the following. You may have to let the battery fully drain as described below.
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.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Brand new iPod Touch keeps restarting Help!

    PLEASE HELP ME! My iPod keeps restarting, or turning off, I'm not sure which, but when it does that then it shows the Apple Logo, it will go to the main screen for maybe 1 second, but then it does this cycle over again. It stared lagging at first. It has been doing this for a while now about (almost an hour). It is also unresponsive, I and tried holding down the home and power buttons, but it didn't work. I plugged it in to iTunes and it said it couldn't connect to it and gave me the code 0xE8000024. I have no idea what to do. Oh and I havn't dropped it or anything, I have taken very good care of it. I JUST got it today. I am restoring it right now but as its plugged in it keeps rstarting and showing the Apple logo. Please help!

  • Ipod Touch keeps restarting after "red slider" shutdown...and other issues?

    Hi There...I'm considering returning my Ipod Touch and thought I'd see if anyone else was experiencing similar issues before I do anything drastic. I purchased a second generation Ipod Touch in December (2.2.1 update) and everything seemed to be working well for a while. I guess it was sometime in January that I noticed my ipod restarting itself after shutdown (red slider)...almost every single time. I simply CAN NOT shut down my ipod when I want to. It does shut down temporarily, then...sometimes seconds, sometimes minutes later...it restarts on it's own.
    I've reset all settings, and I've tried turning off wifi (which seemed to work temporarily), but now it's doing it again. I've heard that if you continue to hold down the sleep/wake button while you slide the red slider to "off" it will cause the ipod to restart...so I'm wondering if maybe there's something wrong with the button? Sometimes it seems like if I fiddle with the button (pulling up on it and such), it will allow me to shut it down...but this could be coincidence. I've seen a posting on another mac forum outlining a similar problem but there were no replies. Can anyone offer any other suggestions?
    Also, I've been experiencing volume issues with my Ipod...sometimes there's just no volume while songs, youtube videos, etc. are playing. The "progress"(?) bar shows that audio/video is playing, but there is no sound (and yes...the volume is turned up). Seems to happen most often when the headset is plugged in...but that's how I use it most of the time. I do hook it up to an older tuner/amp with a 1/8" to RCA Y-cord, and with a 1/8" - 1/8" cord in my truck and it's cut out then as well.
    Both problems seem to be getting worse I only have a few apps on the Ipod (aside from music, podcasts, and some mp4 video) and can list them if anyone thinks this might be the issue. I'd really appreciate any suggestions.
    Thanks,
    M.P.

    Thanks for your input, but as far as I understand, this restarting issue is definitely not normal for the Ipod touch. Nowhere online or in the provided literature does it say that the ipod is supposed to automatically restart after shutdown. Ignoring the problem by not shutting it down at all is like saying your broken car is fixed because you're not going to drive it anymore! LOL!
    Anyhow, this is a relatively small problem now compared to the volume issues which are occurring with greater and greater frequency. It's gotten to the point where I can no longer even listen to a full song from the album I just bought from itunes! This "cutting out" occurs with and without (listening through internal speaker) headphones attached (several different pairs tested) and while hooked to an audio tuner with a high quality cable. I've blown out the jack on the ipod with compressed air to dislodge any possible dust or debris, and have followed the trouble shooting procedures as outlined in the apple support document. The symptoms lead me to believe that this is not so much simply "a volume issue" as it is a symptom of a much larger problem. The volume slider has now started to jump around on it's own after the volume has cut out, and the song continues to play. I have experienced so many problems (not all listed hear) and have heard so many complaints about the ipod touch, that I'm starting to seriously reconsider my purchase...and I'm a huge Mac fan! I haven't abused my Ipod...if anything I'm over cautious with it.
    Could this be software related? Something that will be sorted with an update in a few weeks time?Has anyone experienced or successfully resolved any of the issue that I've listed here - or am I on my own? I'm guessing maybe I should just bring it back...
    Best,
    M.P.

  • My iPod touch keeps restarting itself.

    I updated my 4th gen ipod touch this morning and since then it is stuck continually restarting itself. My ipod gets to the start up screen where the apple logo shows and then it switches itself off and then turns itself back on again and this repeats until the battery dies. I charged it thinking once it had died it would fix its own problem, but it continued even after that. I've tried the full restart by holding the home button and lock screen, but that only stops it for a second. Anybody have any ideas on how to fix it?

  • My 4th gen iPod Touch keeps restarting itself then crashing.

    My iPod died a few days ago, so I plugged it in as usual. When it started charging, it restarted itself. Nothing out of the ordinary. But then it crashed.
    The first time it crashed it had gone to a blank black screen for a while, then went to a staticky white page, then shut down.
    I did not press any buttons, but it tried to restart itself again. The same thing happened.
    After a few times of doing that, it successfully got to the lock screen. Everything looked normal, so I went to plug in my password. It crashed again and started doing the same thing.
    The next time it got to the lock screen, I attempted to disable it. It worked. When I went back to putting my correct password in, it crashed again.
    PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!
    (P.S. My iPod will be 3 years old in April, so I am ready to buy a new one if it is necessary)

    When you connect the i-touch to your computer do you notice the "Other" portion of the space on your itouch may be over .5gb?
    The average space for the "Other" portion is roughly less then .5 GB ... Its the yellow bar in i-tunes when your i-touch is connected ... I had the same issue where the "Other" portion of my i-touch 4 was reading like 5.5 GB, I did some research and found that that space is actually not free space at all, its actually full of left over files and such.
    The way to decrease the size is to back up what you have, and restore it.  then reinstall all the apps and music and videos.  You will notice all that yellow bar is almost gone, and you will have a lot more space!

  • My ipod touch keeps getting restarted. Be it while playing games or listening to music. Whats the problem here?

    My ipod touch keeps getting restarted. Be it while playing games or listening to music or browsing thru the app store. Whats the problem here?

    Oh, you do one thing, back up your iPod to iTunes. Plug your iPod to the iTunes and when it appears under devices tree on the sidebar, right click on it, and back it up.
    After the backup completes, jus click on restore button. If required it will download the latest iOS from the servers (Might take sometime) and after it's downloaded, it will erase all your data and settings, restoring to factory settings.
    After you have completed restoring the iPod, jus set it up as new iPod.
    Sync back all the apps, music, movies.
    And make sure you quit the apps, by double clicking the home button and pressing and holding the app icons and clicking on
    This should help your problem anyhow!
    It might be a case that the files in the apps, or the preferences might be corrupted, jus to be safe, we have a backup.

  • Ipod Touch keeps crashing, now wont open at all.

    I got my ipod touch a little under a year ago, and soon after getting it i noticed that the music would randomly stop and go to the homepage. It wasn't that bad because the music would always come back up, and it didn't happen that often. But then it started getting more and more often. Recently it started taking two or three times to get music to open, and now it crashed last night, and even after two hours of nothing but trying to open it, it still wont open. I'm getting a new ipod soon, but i wanted to know if there was any quick fix.

    This is kinda weird... My iPod touch keeps crashing although I got os 3.1.3.
    It always crashes while tring to play chalkboard stunts.
    I got a second generation iPod touch. Any help would be very helpful.

  • My iPod Touch keeps disabling my passcode.  I have typed the correct passcode but it won't accept it.

    My iPOD touch keeps disabling my passcode.  I have typed the correct passcode but it won't take.  It took it numerous times earlier in the day.

    Maybe at one point, you may have miss typed the code when setting up the code. You'll have to factory reset your iTouch.
    Try restoring in Recovery Mode:
    iClarified - iPhone - How to Put an iPhone Into Recovery Mode
    If unsuccessful, try DFU mode:
    iClarified - iPhone - How to Put an iPhone Into DFU Mode
    After fully restored, set up with one of your back ups:
    iOS: How to back up
    Or set as new iPod:
