  • My iPod touch will not come on just a black screen

    my ipod touch will not turn on,

    Make sure the device is plugged in to the charger for at least 10 minutes before trying to power on. If that doesnt work try a hard reset on the device, hold in the home button and the power button until the Apple shows on the screen.
    Thanks

  • Gen 4 iPod touch will not come back to life from recovery mode. Plus: going to Apple store, in Japan?

    Hi everybody,
    I know this is probably a commonly asked question, but I've been looking through other threads and haven't found anything that works so far.
    iPod touch died a while ago and gave me the "restore me" screen. (Showing a USB cord plugging into Itunes). But, when I try to restore it won't let me.
    I'm running a MacBook 5,1 with OS X 10.6.8 installed. My iPod touch is 32 GB, model Model A1367, 4th Generation.
    I know it's old but if there's a chance at resurrecting, I want to give the old guy a chance.
    When I click "restore."
    Itunes says that it's "extracting software," then starts switching between "verifying ipod restore with apple" and "preparing ipod for restore." The Ipod itself displays an apple with a progress bar.
    Then it says "the ipod could not be restored, an unknown error occurred (40)"
    I've tried a different internet connection and switching USB ports.
    I also edited the "hosts file" as follows:
    # 17.151.36.30 gs.apple.com
    I added this line, but I don't understand the hosts file very well. For example: no idea what the hashtag is for?
    Let's see…I don't have any security software to speak of. I updated iTunes after I finally got 10.6.8 installed.
    Also: I live in Japan! Japanese is not much of a problem, but I'm unsure of how much support I can get for an elderly American model. Is it difficult for an Apple stores to work with products that came from overseas, or is there that not much of a difference?
    Thank you!!

    Check for hardware issues
    Related errors: 1, 3, 10-47, 1002, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1000-1020, 1669.
    Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the error message when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
    The later means, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Ipod touch will not come off applelogo

    help my 3rd gen ipod touch is stuck on the apple symbol. It does not respond to anything and i cannot connect it to my computer (it does not show up), I also cannot switch it on or off. It has been like this for 24 hours

    - Have your tried a reset:
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    And then see if iTunes will see it so you can restore the iPOd?
    - Next, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an hour try the reset and restore.

  • 4th gen ipod touch will not come up on Itunes

    I have a 32gb 4th generation ipod touch and whenever i connect it to itunes it says this ipod cannot be used because the Apple Mobile Device service is not started. I don't know what this means and i cannot sync my ipod anymore.

    Type " Apple Mobile Device service" into the search bar at the top of this screen next to "Support" and see if the resulting articles help.

    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

  • My ipod touch will not reset and I can't restore in iTunes since it won't allow me to access wth a passcode on the ipod.

    My iPod touch will not reset.  I have tried to the sleep/wake and home buttons simultaneously, but after the apple appears it goes back to a screen that shows the spiralling wheel that moves around 5 times, stops for a second and then repeats this cycle over and over.  I tried to restore through iTunes, but I get an error message that says that I need to enter the passcode on the iPod which is impossible since it won't stop the wheel.  Any ideas?

    Place the iPod in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

  • 2nd Generation iPod touch will not turn on

    My 2nd Generation iPod touch will not turn on.  I have held the lock button down for up to 30 seconds and it remains a black screen.  When I put it on the charger, the screen usually shows the battery amount, but it will not do that either.  I checked the battery about 10 minutes before it began this, and it was about 75% charged.  There is no way it could be dead.  It will not even show the apple, as if it were powering on.

    - Connect the iPod to your computer.  If iTunes sees the iPod restore the iPod.
    - Next see if resetting the iPod will make the iPod visible so you can restore the iPod.
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next see if recoverymode  will make the iPod visible.  For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
