My ipod wont start no matter what do

my ipod is stuck on the apple logo no matter what i do, i trien connecting it to itunes and it did but its still stuck to the apple logo and everytime i turn off it goes back to the apple logo after 2 sec

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Ipod wont reset no matter what

I've had my fifth gen ipod for about a year now, with no problems before this. Basically I was listening to music and then the screen froze for a few seconds, a few minutes later it appeared on screen that I had to restore my ipod to factory settings. So i went to my computer to restore and it just keeps on restoring, it seems to be on a loop. Apart from the time when it said that the ipod was corrupted. I have tried to restore the ipod about 10 times now to no avail. Can anyone help? When the ipod is not connected to the computer a sign comes up to say it needs to be connected and restored although i know that the ipod is empty now as the gb are free. What can I do? I was thinking to let the battery die down, but it keeps charging up as i connect it on my USB.
Please can anyone help!
Thanks

There are two things that I can think of that may help. Digital equipment has to have the approperiate amount of power in order to work the way it is supposed to work. My ipod is having battery problems, but I do not yet want to send it back for a battery replacement. I have some old items for a 3rd generation ipod that do work with the 5th generation ipods (I have a 30 and a 30 gig ipod). These item are: Apple ipod FireWire Power Adaptor, and a Apple ipod Dock Connector to FireWire and USB 2.0 cable. By using these products, it allows me to connect to an external power source and to the ipod (to keep the battery changed to I can do what I need to do-and to allow it to work the way it is supposed to work). It, at the same time, allows me to connect the USB cable to the computer, so I can connect to the itues library, or to do a restore. Normally once this is done, then you will not have to do a restore, and as long as you have an external power supply the ipod will continue to work normally (example I have an external power supply in my car to play the ipod thru my radio). But if I do not have the external power supply connected, then the USB cable alone will not charge the ipod, power goes down, and the ipod will not allow me to do anything that I normally can do. It is not a issue that the USB cable is not connected to a power USB outlet, the USB will not charge the ipod for some reason, but the external power will. I have tried different computer and different USB connections, and the problem remains the same. The last option is to sign up for the Battery Replacement Program, and send in your ipod to be replaced, as the battery does not work. It costs a little, but it is better than having an ipod that does not work. Hope this helps.

My iPod wont start up. What do i do?

My iPod was working fine for a few hours then it froze for about 15 mins. It gave me a loading symbol in the middle of the screen and shut off after 10 mins. When i tried to restart it, it would only give me the apple symbol, but wouldnt do anything else. Its a iPod touch, 1rst generation. Is there anyway i can fix it?

Ipod wont start but syncs normally

I have a problem that seemed to arrive about the same time as Apple updated iTunes to 5.0. My iPod Photo 60gb wont start up to play music anymore. It shows a picture signaling some error and the URL to Apples support site (apple.com/support/ipod) for a few seconds, then shuts of. Apples site gives no clues as to what's the matter though.
The strange thing is that the iPod seems to be working ok when connected to the Mac. It syncs normally and seems to be working as a harddisk.
I have tried a hard reset holding down those two buttons but this does not resolve the problem. I have also tried to download the latest software for the iPod from Apples website, but this won't install.
Does anyone know what to do?

Well... my iPod is not starting at all. even after the steps this tutorial told me to do. i was trying to pick a song on my iPod and then all of a sudden it froze for about 3 minutes and then shut off. and i havent been able to turn it on since. the battery was charged and not low. i tried toggling the hold button and hitting reset even while it was charging with the battery and still nothing. all i hear is the iPod going "vroooom beep" over and over. like its trying to start but cant. its been doing that for almost 12hrs and i dont know what else to do. please help.

What do i do if my ipod wont start up ?

Ipod touch 4th generation. Will not start up charge or connect to itunes. The device worked this morning and later when i came home the device would not charge or start up. I tried to plug into the computer but itunes would not recognize it. The device was bought 2 months ago.

Yay! That means you are still in warranty. If you end up needing service, as long as there is no major physical damage and you havent gotten it wet, you should be squared away.
Here's some stuff to try and of course the last step is get service on the iPod, so I put a few links down there to help you.

Will not power on, or will not turn on unless connected to power
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Connect the iPod touch to an Apple USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 15 minutes, if the display turns on and…
The home screen appears, the device should be working. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen: . Then disconnect the device from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears even after the iPod touch has charged for at least 20 minutes: See the "iPod touch displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or low-battery image appears , continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPod touch did not turn on, reset it while connected to an Apple USB power adapter. If the display turns on, go to step 4.If the display remains black, go to the next step.
Restore the device. Connect it to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes it and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPod touch. If the device doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring it, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPod touch resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring it did not solve the issue, seek service.
