Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

4th generation ipod wont let me sink apps, they show on the computer

The apps show on the computer, but wont snyc to i pod after I did updates today.

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
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: 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.

HT1349 what do you do if your ipod wont turn on and all that shows is the apple logo?

any ideas?

Did you try a reboot/reset?
Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. The iPad/iPod should restart

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.

Ipod Shuffle won't show up on the computer Please Help!!!!

Ok,
One day my Ipod worked was working and I could plug it the computer and it would charge and do everthing it was supposed to do. A few days later I edited my songs in Itunes and went to go plug in my Shuffle and nothing happened, no lights no nothing. It would not show up any where in my computer. I have had other problems that have been resolved by calling Apple. This Ipod is only 10 months old.
Please Help.

Actually, that's a good question. I thought it was true with all iPods, but I just tried an experiment on my full-sized iPod and it wasn't the case.
I copied a song (one that I didn't mind deleting) manually to my iPod (not shuffle). I started playing it off the iPod list. Then I went to my main iTunes library list and deleted that song. The song kept playing and continued to be listed on the iPod's list. When I do the same thing with my shuffle, as soon as delete the song off the main library list, the song stops playing and the iPod shuffle re-syncs to no longer have the song.
So to answer your question, I believe you can set the larger iPods to manually manage your music (not sync) and play songs from it on multiple computers. You just can't do the same thing with a shuffle.

Ipod wont turn on without reset

My ipod won't turn on without reseting it. This problem just started occuring about two weeks ago. If I reset the ipod, it will turn off and on for a couple hours, but then the problem reoccurs. I have already reflashed the ipod firmware, and that did no good. Is their anything that I can do? Should I return it? Thanks.

I have exactly the same problem. The ipod is ok for a couple of hours but if it's left for any amount of time beyond that a reset is required to start it up every time. Normally this is when it's left over night. I was wondering if the guy who had this problem managed to fix it with a Restore? My other problem would be that the ipod was purchased from Amazon in the US and I live in England. Will an Apple shop replace it for me if this problem is unfixable? The ipod is around 10 months old

Ipod wont turn on, or cant be seen on my computer or anyothere

The only thing i can do to it is click the holf on and off, then hit the middle button and left for about 6 seconds, that turns on the screen, but i have tried the click hold, adn menu and center button
I have tired this about 40 times, any other Suggestions

When my iphone 5s was doing an update my laptop died. Now it wont turn on it only will show me the screen to connect to iTunes but iTunes doesn't recognize that I have my phone plugged in. I cant access anything on my phone it just says connect to iTunes.

I have tried turning my phone, and laptop off, I also uninstalled and re-installed iTunes.

Hello errod2014,
It sounds like you are unable to see your phone in iTunes after the computer turned off unexpectedly during an iOS update. I recommend resetting the phone first, and then attempting to restore with iTunes again.
To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
From: Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

If you are still unable to see your phone in iTunes, follow these steps for Mac or these for Windows.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,

All of my iTunes music/apps have been deleted, and my iPod is being recognized as a digital camera by the computer. Help?

Hi!
I went on my iTunes today, and it kept saying "
The itunes library file cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation" I restarted my computer and opened iTunes, only to find that all of my apps and songs have been deleted. When I plug in my iPod, it says that this iPod is registered with another computer. My computer, however, is recognizing my iPod as a digital camera, with the name of my father's iPod. I have no idea how to fix this and get all of my songs/apps back. Someone please help!

Check your iTunes version - although your 5th gen works with older iTunes versions, at least 7.4 is required for the IPT - older versions will not even recognize it.
As for the Apple site not working, there have been sporadic reports of that, no known reason, usually resolved in a few hours.
You could also try updating using Apple Software Update (usually found in Start > All Programs), or from within iTunes (Help menu > Check for Updates).
Hope this helps...

Hi. i just downloaded this update for my macbook air and when i turn it on it says it needs to be restarted and so i do restart it. but the messages pops up again. i cant use the computer please help.

hi so i just dpownloaded the mac os lion but when i turn my mac it says please restart it and when i do i get the message again. i am travelling soon and i need my mac to be fixed. please help me.

Did you purchase your MacBook Air new? Do you still have its box? Locate its serial number and telephone Apple at the number shown at the bottom of this page (1-800-MY-APPLE if you're in the U.S.). They can help you.

My apple account won't accept my credit card on the ipod but it will on the computer , PLEASE help!!!

please help my ipod will accept the credit card on the computer but not on the ipod touch now i cant download apps or anything please help, thanks!

Make sure that the account that you are using on the iPod Touch is indeed the same as on your computer. Check Settings > Store and see that the Apple IDs are the same. If you are using different accounts you may have different credit card information on the two accounts.
If you can't figure this out contact the Apple Store. See Apple Store Customer Service on this web page: http://www.apple.com/contact/
