My sister's iPod Touch 4G has blacked out and the Apple with the slice is dissapearing and re-appearing. The Lock button doesn't work and it won't cut on at all so iTunes isn't connecting to it. What do I do?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
When it says place in recovery mode use one of these programs:
For PC
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
If necessary:
Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
For MAC or PC
The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
- 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.

Please help
Is it still charging? If yes, let it charge for about 10min, then connect in recovery mode, explained in this article:
iOS: Unable to update or restore
If this is not working, or the iPod does not charge anymore, you'll have to get it serviced or looked at by visiting an Apple Store next to you:

My ipod touch 5th generation will not turn on and the home button doesn't work. what do i do?
Hello my name is Leslie and i would like to ask you guys a question on how to fix my ipod or what is wrong with it. My ipod touch 5th generation will not turn on and the home button doesn't work. what can i do to fix it ?
Has the home button worked in the past, or is this been something that hasn't worked for some time? The only way to reset the device is with the sleep/wake (power) and home buttons together. Without it, you would have to wait until the battery dies and then plug it in to try and reset it. The Home button is used for several user troubleshooting steps. Without it, you cannot perform a reset, put the device into recovery mode, or place it in DFU mode. You need to get the home button repaired.

How much will Apple charge me to have my Ipod Touch 4g fixed? It won't turn on anymore more because I think the battery is probably bad, and the home button doesn't work either... its not under any warrenty either.

A pop-up message is frozen on my settings page. I was trying to set up an apple id for iTunes when I got a message "required fields have been left blank. The missing information is highlighted in red." the ok button doesn't work. The message is now fixed & I cannot get rid of it. Ironically, when I found this forum I was able to set up an apple Id. Please advise how to get rid of the pop-up box. Thanks!
I'm having this same problem as well and cannot advance--very irritating. All of the information is filled out correctly and I've editted my AppleID information online separately as well to get around this issue, but no luck...

My mini Ipad says: I haven't backed it up to iCloud for 2 weeks. Back ups happen when this ipad is plugged in, locks, and connected to wifi.
The ok button doesn't work, I can't open settings to make sure wifi is connected. Nothing works!!! I have it pluggled into my computer but apparently it isn't backing up since nothing has changed. it is unuseable!Reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected. -
My screen is frozen on the camera and my phone won't let me shut it off. My lock button doesn't work and my assistance touch button won't let me shut it down either. My phone also takes hours to die and my battery if fully charged so i can't wait for it to die i need to get it back to normal asap! How do I get it to unfreeze?
A reset is when you press and hold both the home and sleep buttons for 10 seconds or so until the Apple logo appears. You won't lose any data. Give it a try.

My Iphone 4 screen just went black and it wont come on but it vibrates on ringer. Ps: The home button doesn't work. What do I do!?
If it never worked after the screen replacement then it would appear that you have a hardware problem either caused by the repair or the problem that lead to the screen replacement.

I would like to know if apple will replace it. If not, then I will take somewhere cheaper but it has some scratches so I would like to get a new one.
The home button doesn't work, the LCD cable is broken and the screen is cracked! Wow. That's the worst case of abuse that I've seen. I think that Apple will laugh at you.
