Reboot/restart ipod touch with broken power button

I dont think my ipod touch is broken but it wont turn on, the power button has always been broken and it cant be repaired. Is there a program or something i can download to completelty restart my ipod, I dont care about my apps or anything. I just want it to work

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
Instead of using the puttons to place the iPod in recovery mode
Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:

If necessary:
Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot

- 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.

    So best option is..
    1) backup your phone
    2) log to iCloud
    3) erese your phone
    4) pug and restore your phone from backup
    .. I'm clearly starting to dislike this company and seriously considering switching to someone else.

    See Here for
    Frozen or unresponsive iPod touch
    The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
    Restart..  Reset..  Restore...
    Try this First... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the iPod Off... ( if it isn’t already )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the iPod On...
    If that does not help... See Here:

  • Restoring disabled iPod with broken power button

    My daughter forgot her passcode and I need to wipe/restore her disabled iPod. But the power button is broken. How do I do this?
    One suggestion:
    I found some similar discussions where lllaass recommends using RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode. I downloaded RecBoot, but couldn't get it to work because "iTunesMobileDevice.DLL is missing". In fact, the instructions for RecBoot say "The program requires LibUSB utility whos setup is included in the zip package", only ... no such utility was included in the zip package. How do I get RecBoot to work?
    Any other suggestions?

  • MacBook frozen with broken power button

    i have a 2010 MacBook Pro that has a broken power button, which seems to be a common problem with this model. To turn it on, I have to open the case and short out two pins on the motherboard. Lately, my MacBook has been freezing on me, which leads to a solid black screen. I can move the mouse around but there is nothing to click on. Since my power button is broken, I cannot just hold it down to force a shutdown like usual and I do not have time to let the laptop's battery burn itself out all day so I can start it back up.
    Is there anything I can do to turn my Mac off while it's still running? I have the back case open and the fans are going. I'm afraid to poke around in there while it's running.
    Thanks.

    Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.

  • How can I reset my iPod Touch with no power at all? It doesn't charge with the power outlet or with the USB cable...

    I realized this morning my iPod Touch was not charging. I left it charging all night but nothing.
    I read i have to reset it, but since now is fully uncharged, it does not allow me to do anything...
    I tried to charge it with all possible resources (USB, different chords, power outlet, etc) but still out.
    Should I take it to a Genius Bar?

    I would try here first.
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    Then to the Apple store.

    i need some help i have a 3G ipod touch the power button doesnt work at all but i got home and my screen is just plain white how do i fix this

    Let the battery fully drain. After charging for an hour try a reset (may not work).
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Then connect to your comnputer and try to restore.
    - If the screen is still white then it appears yu have a hardware problem and appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Near new ipod touch with broken screen

    I have a 2 week old  ipod touch 4 with a broken screen. Can anyone tell me if it is covered buy warranty (unlikely l know) and if not what are the costs involved in getting it fixed and are the do - it - yourself kits any good.

    It's not covered by the warranty. Here are the costs for the repair by Apple: Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
    But you can also search the Internet for 3rd party repair, but you'll have no warranty after that by Apple anymore.

  • Note retreival from dead phone with broken power button

    Hi all - my iphone 4s is dead for good, and my lock/power button on the top is broken.  when i try to retreive my notes from the icloud, i get a message saying, "to use icloud notes, create a new email address by turning on notes in your icloud settings using iOs or or OS X"  is it possible to retreive my notes although i can't access the actual iphone itself? any help is much appreciated!

    If you had ever gone to Settings>iCloud and tried to turn notes syncing on you would have been prompted to turn on Mail to create an iCloud email account first.  If you never synced them with iCloud they cannot be recovered unless you backed up your phone to your computer using iTunes.  If you did back up to your computer using iTunes, restoring the backup to another iPhone would recover them; or, you could purchase and use 3rd party software to extract them from the backup (like iPhone Backup Extractor).

  • Ipod Touch (1st generation) power button

    Yesterday my ipod's power button wasn't working right. To unlock it I had to press the menu button because pressing the power button wasn't working. Then to lock it again I had to repeatedly press the power button around 30 times. Then to shut it off I had to hold the power button for 3 minutes. And that only worked once. After a little while it went back to doing what it was supposed to. Then today it started doing the same thing and is still doing it. Is there anyway to fix it? I Really don't want to buy a new ipod. Any help it greatly appreciated.

    Mikalatte--
    I'd at least take it in to be looked at--exams are free, if I am not mistaken.
    I don't think it's a software issue...though you could try a reset and a synch.
