My iPod won't turn on at all, HELP!

A couple of hours ago, I was sitting on my bed listening to music on my iPod Touch, and browsing on Safari on my iPod Touch.
Then I start to hear my music skipping, and the screen froze up. I tried pressing the power button a few times, and the home button a few times, but nothing worked; the music still skipped and the screen was still frozen.
I've had problems with my iPod before, like how i'll be on Safari, and then my iTouch would just exit out of the window. Along with how my Wi-fi will have a strong connection, but doesn't allow me to connect to YouTube or iTunes.
Should I go to an Apple store for help? Or is there something that I can do myself?
Thanks,
Malia

nevermind,
my friend told me that all I need to do is hold the home & power button.
(:

    - 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

    My iPod touch 5th generation just stopped working out of the blue. It won't turn on and has nothing but a black screen. It won't charge or connect to iTunes either. I can't restart it because my home button does not work either. How do I turn it back on? Please help fast!

  • My Ipod won't turn on at all

    So my Ipod had been acting weird, turning off unexpectedly, then it started being normal again, after a few hours it said that I needed to restore it, so I plugged it in and restored it. Then this white screen came up on the Ipod and it wasn't being picked up as being plugged in by Itunes or my computer. I unplugged it and hit buttons, switched the hold key on and off trying to get it to do something. It didn't so I set in down for a bit. Now it is off, there is nothing on the screen and it won't show up when I plug it in, and it won't turn on. Help would be much appreciated, thanks (:

    You may need to reset it. Put
    the hold switch to the OFF/White position. Now toggle
    it ON/orange then back off again. Then press and hold
    both the MENU and center buttons on the iPod and hold
    them for a good 10 seconds or so. Your iPod should
    reboot starting with the Apple Logo screen.
    Repeat a couple times if it doesn't work the first
    time and hold the two buttons down longer on the
    second try.

    Thank you so much, I tried a little bit more and it worked!

  • My IPOD won't turn on can you help???

    My ipod touch completely died over the weekend. I tried to charge it through 2 different wall socket adapters and my laptop. Nothing happened, no symbols on the screen, laptop didn't recognise it. I have tried the whole "hold down the power button, hold down the home button" with no results. My ipod becomes very hot to touch when on charge as well. I have no idea how it died as I was away over the weekend and left my ipod at home. I use it everyday and have been doing so for just over 2 years without a problem like this. I have had a previous ipod that had a problem similar and was fixed by holding down the power and home screen buttons. I am really stuck for ideas as i do not have money to have it repaired and it is out of warranty.

    You can work through the five 5 R's of troubleshooting to rule out the possibility of corrupted software.

    It might also be a good idea to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then charge it back up and restore it once more in iTunes.
    Otherwise, it's likely a hardware issue with the iPod's LCD display, meaning you'll need to take or send your iPod in for service either via Apple or a third party repair service. Here is Apple's repair pricing.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
    Note that they don't actually repair the device, but exchange it for one of the same generation, model, and capacity.  A third party service will actually replace the damaged part for a little less.  Google "iPod screen repair" and you should get a number of results to work with.

  • IPod won't turn on or charge AT ALL

    My iPod:
    8 gb
    4th gen (w/ camera)
    NOT jailbroken
    One year old
    I bought it last September (2010) and my warranty just expired. Seriously, two weeks after the warranty ended, my iPod failed to turn on one RANDOM day at a very RANDOM moment.
    I own four iPod chargers (USB and Wall) and none of them charged my iPod. All four plugs work because I have an old classic iPod and all plugs charge it fine. When I plugged it in, nothing on the screen showed up. I tried letting it charge for two days, and it never turned on. I held down the Power and Home button together and for the first couple of times, it showed the red battery w/ the "need to charge" sign underneath. However, after holding down both buttons a few times, the iPod won't even budge at all.
    It's the black screen of death. PLEASE HELP ME!!
    What doesn't work for me:
    won't charge at all
    plugs aren't the problem
    holding down the home button (and the power button together) doesn't work -- no apple appears, nothing! even after holding it for 1 minute
    doesn't even turn on -- nothing shows up on the screen!!!

    - After being connecting to a charging source for one hour, try resetting 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.
    -Then connect to your computer. If iTunes sees the iPod restore via iTunes.
    - Next see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow you to restore the iPod. For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    - Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since you likely have a hardware problem.

  • 1st Generation iPod Won't Turn On

    I have a original 1st generation iPod.  Yes, the one with the scroll wheel and 5gb (wow!) drive.  It doesn't turn on though.  Originally, I suspected a loose connection from the battery to the logic board, but testing with my multimeter shows me the connection is fine.  The iPod doesn't turn on at all.  I tried plugging it into my computer's firewire port and pressing the menu and play/pause button to no avail.
    I have a picture in this post of the iPod - all dead like a brick.  Do any of you have any suggestions?  I am at a brick wall right now and need to find some solution.  Or if any of you know where I can get the iPod repaired or get a cheap logic board replacement?  I can't spend too much though.
    Thanks.

    Hi Cece!
    See if the suggestions from these articles help with that issue you're having with your iPod failing to power on:

  • My ipod won't turn on and isn't recognized by iTunes or computer

    My iPod Touch (2nd Generation) won't turn on at all. I tried charging it with different cables and in different outlets and it wouldn't charge. My computer (a mac) and iTunes won't recognize it and the sleep button is jammed so I can't restart it. What should I do?

    Need more info to help, assuming that the iPod screen is totally blank now, when you switch it on.
    When you plug it in to charge, what do you see on the iPod screen, after 30 minutes, while still connected?
    Have you tried using another USB cable or port?

  • IPOD CLASSIC. WON'T TURN ON :/ ANY INFO HELPFUL

    I recently recieved an iPod Classic for Christmas, one my parents purchased from eBay. It was working fine for about two weeks, and then it stopped working. It won't turn on at all unless I connect it to my computer with the USB cord. I have USB 2.0, because my computer is new. So, my iPod flashes on and off on the apple logo screen, for about a second and then starts all over again, never long enough for it to access the computer and be recognized by it. But when I push the reset buttons it still flashes, for a second longer. Any ideas on what I should do? And because I got it used, I have no idea about the warranty. Is this possibly a battery problem, if so how can i fix this, possibly the cheapest way. And do you know if all eBay purchases have warranty's? Please respond.
