Tried to erase all data from iPod touch, now it won't even turn on?

I am not sure how the system was wiped as I was not the one that did it, but now the device will not even acknowledge a charge from either the computer or wall charger. Not sure how to restore the operating system on the device. Any ideas or suggestions?

Try  lllaass  link above,

If still no joy you may need to take it in to get looked at...

  • I've followed all the instructions in order to restore my ipod touch yet it won't even turn off or show the red slipper to shut down. I've tried holding down both buttons each at a time it doesn't do anything. Anybody ever experience this? If so help?

    I've followed all the instructions in order to restore my ipod touch yet it won't even turn off or show the red slipper to shut down. I've tried holding down both buttons each at a time it doesn't do anything. Anybody ever experience this? If so help? Should I just go to the apple store?

    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.
    - 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.

  • How to retrieve all data from iPod Touch and copy to new computer?

    I recently purchased a new iPod and MacBook. The MacBook was stolen and I had to buy a new one. I have a lot of music and photos on the iPod I would like to recover and copy back to the MacBook. However, the iTunes says it will delete everything. I want it to sync everything from the iPod and continue with that data.
    How can I do this?
    Thanks,
    gonzobrains

    You're welcome, child.
    "backups. But that's not my point. I find it disappointing that I cannot sync my data both ways."
    O.K. It still is the way it is.
    "Here I have gigabytes of data sitting right here on my iPod and no way to natively copy it back to my new computer without purchasing third-party software."
    Yes, this is true.
    "Every other mobile device I have ever owned let's you easily copy back to a computer. Just plug it in, mount it, and there you go."
    As you now know, this is not the case with the ipod touch.
    You asked how and I told you that you cannot without 3rd party software. What is it that you want?
    Simply maintaining a backup (basic) would solve the issue.

  • Is there no hope for my ipod touch if it won't even turn on or get recognized by my computer?

    I cannot get my ipod touch to turn on.  The computer doesn't recognize it.  I have tried all the reset options.  I have tried plugging directly into the wall with a wall charger.  I have updated my itunes!!!  There is no water damage.  HELP.  It is very frustrating to spend that amount of money and only get about a year and a half of use???

    Have you tried another cable?
    After charging it for awhile see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow iTunes to see the iPod.  For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    Next see if DFU mode will do it.

  • Is it possible to save game data (e.g game scores) on your PC before you erase all data on iPod Touch

    I am about to erase data on my iPod but I've got some good scores on games like a mean 29,825,006 on Temple Run and will I be able to save this data over to my PC?

    - Make sure that you make a backup.  The first step of a sync is a backup.  The backup contains app data like saved games. To check, go to iTunes>Preferences>Devices and look for the backup and its date.
    - Just restore the iPod from that backup and you save games will be restore too provided that the apps are in the iTunes library since the backup does not contain apps and some other stuff.

  • Erase all data from original iPhone

    I've upgraded to the iPhone 3G and am in the process of selling the 1st generation. My cell service has been transferred to the new phone - the sim card that came with the 3G is now in the original phone. I want to be sure to all my data is erased. Since it's not an active phone, how do I do that? Can I take the sim from the 3G, install in the original and then erase all data?

    If you are selling your 2G iphone, I may be interested. I just broke the screen of mine and found out that replacing it cost almost as much as a 3G. I don't want a 3G as AT&T charges more per month would also charge for texting. Thanks! You can contact me at [email protected]

  • How to get ALL data from ipod to new computer with itunes??

    I have a ipod touch 2nd gen. I have cd's and purchased songs on my ipod. I did use itunes on my friends computer for a number of years but now I've got windows 7 computer and i have downloaded itunes but it won't let me transfer current data on my ipod to itunes without me loosing it all. I can only access itunes at friends now. Is there any way to get all my songs, playlists, apps (with data still on it) and photos without deleting it? I am looking for the cheapest way possible. I have tried downloading copy software but it all costs money. Thanks

    iTunes is already pre-installed on all new Macs.  Do you mean that you updated it from Software Update? 
    Your iPod Touch problems should be posted in the iPod Touch forums.  It's where the iPod users hang out.
