My Ipod touch won't turn on.  I tried holding down the home button and the power button.  Any suggestions?

I had the same problem a few weeks ago, I tried pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time
After about 5 seconds, it seem to start up again
If all else fails, have you tried to take it in to the apple store? The customer service there is always really friendly and helpful
... just don't panic, I'm sure it will be fine

    Try:
    - Another cable
    - Another USB port
    - Reboot the computer
    - 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

    Sorry if I confused you. Let me try again:
    1) do a full backup your iPhone to a PC using iTunes
    2) go to: settings, general, reset, erase all content and settings.erase phone.
    3) when iPhone starts again choose set as new phone. Do not restore from icloud or iTunes.
    4) once done. Setup your email accounts. When done, verify checked emails do not uncheck themselves.
    That resolved, finish setting up:
    5) go to: settings, icloud, uncheck email, and set other icons as wished. Now setup icloud account.
    6)This step will make all contracts reside in icloud and be available always:  Once icloud account is setup, go back to settings, email contacts. Open each email account and uncheck contacts, but leave mail checked. Then go to the icloud email account and check contacts.

  • I had a trojan virus attack my computer and after that Firefox would no longer open up. I tried deleting it and re-installing it but that didn't work.

    When trying to re-install Firefox, it allows me to download it but when I hit run, it says its extracting and after that nothing else happens.

    Are you sure the virus is cleaned off your PC?
    Download and Install MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, run a full Scan. [http://www.malwarebytes.org/ http://www.malwarebytes.org/]

  • My MacBook pro is less then a year old and when I try to shut it down it gives me the blue screen and the loading spinner but the doesn't do anything or shut down. I've already tried to reinstall Mac os x but that didn't work any ideas?

    It stays on the blue screen forever until I manually shut it down

    Cooper, please start a new thread.  You'll get a wider audience and won't confuse Quintonaturner  with issues that don't pertain to them.  You don't know they have Office.  Many Mac users don't.  http://www.neooffice.org is a nice alternative, and so is http://docs.google.com/ as long as you don't have Exchange servers that aren't Mac OS X Mail compatible.

  • My ipod touch wont turn on the screen is balck i tried connecting it to my computer but it wont work.. Can anyone help me ?

    My ipod touch wont turn on, The screen is black and i tried to plug it inot my computer and it still wont turn on.. Can someone help me ?.

    After charging for at least an hour I would try in order:
    - Resetting the iPod:
    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 try restoring the iPod via iTunes.  You may have to place the iPod in recovery mode for iTunes to see the iPod.  For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

  • My old 1st gen ipod touch wont turn on and makes a clicking sound when I plug it in.

    My old 1st gen ipod touch wont turn on and makes a clicking sound when I plug it in. The ipod doesnt turn on when I plug it into the wall, even if I let it charge, and itunes won't recognize it. I have tried to reset it with the home and power buttons. Whats wrong and how can I fix it? I think it might be the memory or the battery. What could the clicking sound be related to? Thanks

    Try placing the iPod in recovery mode and then try restoring the iPod.  For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    After that I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • My ipod touch wont turn on at all even when i connect it to my computer

    So my ipod touch wont turn on at all even when i connect it to my computer! it was working fine then outta no where it wouldnt wanna turn back on. i tryed resetting but it doesn't do anything. Also when i put it on the charger it seems to get pretty hot...is the normal? help please...

    There are two different causes of this, either it has been overheated, or the iPod just crashed.  If it crashed, there is one simple step to fixing it.  Letting the battery die.  Do not connect to a charger port, or the device may get overheated, and need to be replaced.  Once it dies, it normally will show the icon, that is needs to be charged. Once you charge it back up, it should go back to normal.  If this doesn't help, then contact apple to the nearest store about getting a replacement.

  • 1st Gen. iPod touch wont turn on. Home button doesn't work. Can't reset.

    Hi there.  My 1st generation iPod touch wont turn on.  The battery has drained completely, and the few times this happened in the past, I could just reset it by holding the home and top buttons, the iPod would turn on, I could plug it in, and then it would charge--no problems.  However, now the home button does not work, so I cannot reset it. When I plug it in to the charger, the Apple logo appears for about 20 seconds, then disappears.  Also, if I hold the top button for about 2 seconds, the same thing happens (Apple logo appears for about 20 seconds, then disappears).  So, it doesn't turn on, wont reset due to the home button not working, and can't connect to the computer or iTunes.  However, it still has some life in it because the Apple logo always appears when it's plugged in or when I hold the top button.  Can anybody help?  Thanks.
