    Probably the battery is dead. You can bring it to the apple store and get a out of warranty battery replacement for a fee. Check this link;

    I believe it's probably more worth it upgrading your device but that's my opinion.

  • My iPod touch wont sync or charge on my computer, but charges in a dock

    All of a sudden my iPod touch (3rd gen) is not syncing to my computer or charging on the computer, but it will charge in a separate docking station. This started on Sat 1/8/11, Friday it worked & Saturday it didn't. I did not do any updating of tunes prior to problem and I am working with the most updated itunes software. I have tried multiple usb ports & multiple cords & none of them work. I also have a plug that goes into the wall using the usb & it does not work now either.
    Of course my warranty was up 21 days ago. Help me please! I'm desperate.

  • Ipod touch wont keeps it charge

    I charge it up in the evening and when its fully charged i turn it off because i dont need it till the morning, when i get up i try to turn it on but the battery is flat. why is this and how can it be fixed?

    Perhaps a little more information would help...after charging and you leave the Touch, is it off or sleeping?  Do you have apps running in the background?  Mail set to check?
    Try going to the recents, what you get from double clicking the home button, and dismiss all apps on the recents dock bar.  Then charge fully, leave in sleep mode and see what the battery charge is like in the morning.
    If the charge is still good, then something in the apps you were using was actually running in the background and using resources.
    If the charge is still very low, it would be good to take the Touch to an Apple store genius bar and have it tested to see if there is a fault somewhere causing the battery to discharge while not in use.

  • Ipod touch wont load past apple screen. I have tried resetting by holding home button and on/off but after it resets it still only loads to the apple screen. When I plug the device in It stays on the apple screen and itunes does not recognize it?

    Ipod touch wont load past apple screen. I have tried resetting by holding home button and on/off but after it resets it still only loads to the apple screen. When I plug the device in It stays on the apple screen and itunes does not recognize it? I fear it may be stuck in some sort of reset loop which is stopping itunes from recognizing it. How do I go about the process of sending it in to apple if I cannot find a fix? Thank you in advance, it is greatly appreciated!!

    - See if placing the iPod in Recovery mode will allow a restore.
    - If not successful and you can't turn the iPod fully off (that is required to place in recovery mode), then let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try the reset, restore again
    - Then time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apples store.

  • I have a white screen and i tried rebooting the ipod touch by holding the home and sleep button simoltaneously but it still jus tappears white. i also attempted to connect my ipod to itunes but my itunes wont even recognize my ipod touch 4g

    i have a white screen and i tried rebooting the ipod touch by holding the home and sleep button simoltaneously but it still jus tappears white. i also attempted to connect my ipod to itunes but my itunes wont even recognize my ipod touch 4g. What should I do now?

    Just let the battery drain until the screen shuts off. When you charge it back up it should boot up normally.

  • My ipod touch wont charge nor will the computer recognize it as an ipod

    my iPod touch wont charge when connected to my lab top but it isnt the usb cord or port because it works for a different iPod and my computer wont recognize my ipod.

    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 touch wont charge or turn on?

    My iPod touch was not fully charged but it had some charge and then it just turned off and now it won't turn back on. I plugged my iPod touch into charge and the red battery and lightning symbol comes on but that is still there a couple of hours later. If I unplug it it, is just a black screen and no matter what I do nothing happens. I can't turn it on and I have tried several different chargers that work for other devices so it is not the charger. I am abroad so I haven't got my laptop to see if it will charge that way or be detected in iTunes. I have tried resetting it and restarting it but nothing seems to be working. Has anyone had this problem or know how to fix it? Any suggestions would be nice. Thank you.
