Hello, pravin729.  
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
I understand that your iPod touch will not turn on.  I would start with going through the troubleshooting steps in the article below.    
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on

    If you can't get it to shut down or restart when holding down the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons and you can't get it recognized in iTunes to restore it, the iPod may have suffered a hardware failure and will need to go to Apple for service. Someone else here may have additional suggestions, though.
    There is no "fifth generation" iPod touch, by the way, just for the sake of clarity; not yet, anyway.
    Regards.

    Try this.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 or the other 4Gs. They do not fix yours.

  • My ipod has an odd screen and won't do anything, I've tried restoring it but nothing has worked. What can I do?

    So my Ipod classic starting acting oddly when I docked it recently. I took it off my docking station, which I'd used many times before and have no issues with, and the symbol for "docked" was still hovering over the battery. I didn't think anything of it until I came to dock my Ipod with my laptop and it said that it had to be restored before I could use it again. I restored it but this practically blank screen came up and just keeps flashing "Do not disconnect" and nothing else. What can I do?
    Please help
    Thank You

    Try the following but you likely have a hardware problem:                                               
    - 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.

  • HT4113 I have followed all directions about restarting my ipod after it has locked, but they have not worked.  What can I do to fix the Ipod?

    I have followed all directions from the website to unlock my ipod when it states Ipod is disabled, but they have not worked.  Is there anything else I can do to unlock the Ipod?

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    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        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

    After you perform each step, try to restore your device.
    Restart your computer.
    Disconnect all your USB devices from your computer and connect to another USB port.
    Use a different USB cable.
    Uninstall third-party security software.
    Try restoring using an alternate computer.

    Try a reset. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together) for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the red slider.

  • How can i get my contacts from textfree app if ipod wont turn on

    Can i get my contacts from textfree app on my pc if ipod wont turn on?

    If iTunes does not see the iPod then:
    - See if you can extrac themn from an existing backup
    iPhone Backup Extractor for Windows and Mac
    - Restore an iPod 2G or later, iPhone 3G or later or an iPod from existing biPod backup. The apps have to be in the iTunes library in order to have a place for the app data to go.

  • IPod wont turn on or give any light signal

    I started using my iPod yesterday and it was working fine... Now my ipod wont turn on, it doesnt give any light signal even if its connected to the PC , and unlocked... But its not my PC's problem, cause my friend's ipod works very nice in my PC... So... What's wrong? :S
    Don't tell me the iPod is not ok... :(:(:(

    If this doesn't work and your still under warranty I would suggest sending it in
    for replacement.
    You said all your music disappeared before connecting to your computer so I don't think the problem is there. The fact that it doesn't turn on at all may just be a symptom of a depleted battery or your iPod simply died.
    Good luck!
