My ipod shows the apple logo but wont fully turn on!!

I restored all the factory setting and then my ipod turned of. I then lete it sit for a month and just recently charged it and connected it to the computer. If i hold the power button the Apple logo apears for about 15 seconds and then the screen goes black again. If i plug it into my computer the logo appears and shuts off but it doesnt open up on itunes. How do i get my ipod to turn on?

What happens if you try and connect it to your iTunes in recovery mode and restore it to factory settings? See this article for instructions on getting your iPod into recovery mode. Make sure not to restore from a backup.

When my iphone 3G dies, and i plug it in, it shows the apple sign but never turns on ???

help me! when my iphone 3G dies, and i plug it in, it shows the apple sign but never turns back on !!!!!!

When the phone shows only the Apple logo it usually indicates an issue with the system software that is preventing the phone from completing the boot sequence. This can be remedied by putting the phone into DFU mode and restoring the system software. This will remove all data and software from the phone and put a fresh set of system software on the phone, so hopefully you have a recent backup.
To put your iPhone/iPod into DFU mode:
1. Make sure the iPhone/iPod is connected to the computer
2. Hold down the sleep/wake button and home button at the same time for 8 seconds
3. Let go of the sleep/wake button and keep holding down the home button
4. If you are successful, a dialog box will pop up in iTunes stating that iTunes has detected an iPod/iPhone in recovery mode. Note that a successful DFU will result in a blank black screen on your iPhone/iPod.
5. Click OK, then click the restore button in iTunes.
After that you will be able to resync your data and be good to go.
Hope this helps.

Hello there, RFJA2211.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great troubleshooting steps for unexpected power off of your iOS device:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
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.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIsand corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone 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 iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.

My iPod is only showing the apple screen when reset it turns its self back on any ideas how to fix it?

My iPod wont switch on its only showing the apple sign I have tried resetting it multiple times but it only switches its self back on again it's not showing up when plugged into the computer either can anybody give me advice on it? ( it's over a year old so not under guarantee anymore either)

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.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

See if these help.
iPod shows only an Apple logo and doesn't start up.
Only the Apple logo appears when turned on.

My Ipad device is only showing the apple icon nothing else is happening..what's wrong

How do I get my screen to come back on, it is only showing the apple icon.

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

My ipod is only showing the Apple Icon and wont turn on past that. It also won't connect to my computer so I can't restore it. What Should I do? Should I go to an Apple store and have them take a look at it?

I don't know what to do. It is only showing the apple icon. I've tried turning it on and off and it just stays on the icon. It also wont connect to my computer so I can;t restore it like I have been told to do. So should I take it into an apple store? Or is it a lost cause..??

IPad 2 is won't start only showing the apple sign

Hi,
my iPad2 died on me. It was very low in battery, so I started charging it. Everything looked fine until the apple sign came up. And that is it. It won't start. It doesn't connect to iTunes and re-start doesn't work either. Any suggestions? Thanks for all help!

BTW - it doesn't seem to charge either. Apple sign only comes up while connected to power output (and trying to re-start), when I disconnect and try to re-start I get the "low battery - connect to power" sign - even though the iPad has been connected for several hours.

My phone will only show the apple sign when i switch it on .... what do i do

My phone wont start ... when i turn it on, i get the apple sign, it stays for about a minute, then the phone switches off again ... what do it do?

Sounds like you'll need to restore it via iTunes.

HT201406 My iPad 1 shows the apple icon but won't turn off or show any other screen. How can I fix this?

My IPad 1 shows the Apple icon on the screen but it won't go to another screen or turn off. Has anyone else experienced this?

Try to reboot your iPad: Press and hold the power AND home buttons at the SAME time for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down) your screen go blank momentarily - keep holding both buttons - until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad should [hopefully] restart.

I have the iPad 2 and it keeps dying, when it dies it wont turn back on, it shows the apple sign but that is it. THen it shuts off and does the same thing over again, I have tried holding the sleep/awake button along with the home button! HELP!!!

Please help!

I'm sorry, you are correct I am trying to restore my ipad because it stopped working.   We thought the battery was dead so we plugged it into the wall charger. All it does when plugged in is flash the apple logo like it is going to start up and then shut off. It repeats this every few seconds while it is plugged into the wall. I let it charge overnight and still nothing.
When I hold the power button and the home button down together while the ipad is plugged into the wall, it does flash then after I release the power button the connect to itunes screen comes on.   But when I connect it to my computer it goes blank.   itunes does not recongnize my ipad when I plug it into the computer. I have used the same cord to plug in my other devices and itunes recongnizes them so it isn't the usb cord.
It seems as if my system has crashed and I think this may just be an apple service trip for me. But thanks so much for the advice.   =D

My itouch only shows the apple sign but wont actually turn on, what do i do?
