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.

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 another cable
- 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.

Hello zoefromoranmore,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
In order to deauthorize devices which you no longer have, you will have to use the deauthorize all command, found in the article below.
Deauthorize all computers
If need to deauthorize your computer but you can't access it, you need to deauthorize all computers. After you authorize 2 computers, you'll have the option to deauthorize all computers for your Apple ID. You can deauthorize all computers once per year.
Why should I deauthorize all of my computers?
To make sure that only you can play your content, or to free up authorizations used by your old computers. Here's when you should deauthorize all computers:
Your computer doesn't work anymore
You sold or gave away a computer and didn't deauthorize it first
What happens when I deauthorize all computers? Will I lose my content?
Just like deauthorizing a single computer, you won't delete anything if you choose to deauthorize all computers. You just won't be able to play content that you bought from iTunes on those computers until you reauthorize them. You need to have the computer to reauthorize it.
How do I deauthorize all of my computers?
Using one of your authorized computers, follow these steps:
Open your account in iTunes (you may need to sign in with your Apple ID). Or open iTunes, click Store > Sign In, and enter your Apple ID and password.
Click Deauthorize All.
The Deauthorize All button appears only if you have more than 2 authorized computers. If you don't see the Deauthorize All button, that means you only have one authorized computer.
I deauthorized all of my computers. What should I do now?
Reauthorize each computer that you want to use with iTunes. Go to Store > Authorize this computer and enter your Apple ID and password.
Deauthorize your computer using iTunes

Illustrator CC 2014 (18.1.1) won't boot! Can you help?!

I have a MacBook Pro (17-inch, Early 2009) running 10.10.2 (14C109) and Illustrator CC 2014 (18.1.1) won't boot. It crashes IMMEDIATELY! I've already uninstalled and reinstalled it. I REALLY need this software. It's my primary production App. Can you help? Thank you!

bb,
There have been reports on an issue with Extensions Suitcase a while back.I wonder whether that can still be relevant:
Here is the Extensions Suitcase 5 update that may solve the issue:

Direct update link:

Or you may consider an upgrade to Suitcase Fusion 6:
Otherwise, there may be something relevant in the Other options (follow the link with that name), such as item 1) or 11).

2nd Generation Ipod won't sync. Can anyone help?

I have a 2nd generation IPOD that will not sync. Can anyone help?

Did it sync before? Is this the same computer it synced with? Is it giving you any error messages? Does it show up in iTunes?

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.

Safari history on iPad won't clear. Can you help me?

I'm using iPad 2, 64GB running iOS 7.1.2. I want to clear browsing history in Safari, and I cannot select this simple option, because:
1. Within Safari on the iPad, the "Clear" tab at the bottom of the History folder is faded and not selectable.
2. In Settings, in the Safari menu the "Clear History" tab is also faded and not selectable.
3. I have attempted to find any sort of password or passcode required to clear History, but I cannot locate such a field.
Can anyone offer advice as to how to clear history?
Thanks

Try going to settings> general> restrictions> and remove all restrictions.

Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. Place the iOS device in DFU mode. if necessary to allow the restore.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

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:
