TS1383 I charged my Ipod touch (forth generation) over night and now it won't turn back on.. like the screen just stays black.
I was at a friends house and I used her Ipod dock to charge my ipod before we left to go to her grandmas, before we left I checked it to see if it was charging and it was. So we left for a few hours and we came home and it was charged. Later on that night, before we went to bed I put my ipod on the SAME charger I used earlier that day. I woke up in the morning and tried turning it on and the screen stayed black so I paniced and put it on the charger some more and notcied the screen stayed black. We looked up what to do on the internet and it seems a lot of people were having this problem as well. Some of the people said to hold the home and power button at the same time and the apple sigh will appear and your ipod will be good again.. we tried that and nothing same black screen. I have no idea what to do with it and if it can be fixable.

Try:

- 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.

I haven't used my iPod touch 4g in a while and now it won't turn on or connect to my computer to charge. holding power+home isn't working either. i've had it plugged in for a while, but i'm pretty sure that's pointless if it won't even connect....help?

So yea I'm wondering if its ok to leave it over night plugged in
Hi Baderk,
Yes, it is perfectly fine. The charger for the iPhone and iPod are the same charger. I charge all of my devices overnight - most of them are plugged in until I use them....(which means that they might be plugged in for several days).

I was working on my iPad and it turned off suddenly and now it won't turn back on. It was at least 50% charged and when I tried to connect the charger it still will not come on. Is there a reset button?
Thank you so much! It worked, I was reading around and saw this has happened to a number of iPad users. Thank you for your prompt response, I was so worried I broke it or something.

How come when i click on an app on my ipod the screen just stays black?
how come when i click on an app on my ipod the screen just stays black?
It can happen from time to time, especially with third-party apps, though shouldn't happen too often with the ones created by Apple, such as Safari. Turning your iPod completely off and then on again can sometimes help.

My iPod is disabled
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.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. You have no iCloud since that requies iOS 5 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. If yo do not have a backup yo can't restoe from backup

My iPod 5th gen was working fine and now it won't turn on.
This morning I was listening to music on it and everything, it was working absolutely fine and went to take a shower, so I locked it. When I came back, it would not respond at all. Like it is on the off screen, with nothing on it. I bought it off a friend and the home button is stuck, so I can't put it in recovery mode, and I was going to download a client to do it on a computer, but my personal laptop does not recognize it (it doesn't even come up on the computer usb port thing and it doesn't charge when I plug it into the wall). I just recently purchased the charger (literally in the last week) so I do not believe it is the charger because it was charging fine all night. Also it was at full charge when I went to shower so I honestly have no idea what to do. I looked up solutions but I am unable to do anything when my computer can't even recognize it. Somebody please help me, or at least tell me I'm screwed so I can stop worrying about it This iPod is important to me and I have a lot of valuable data on it so I will be very dissapointed if I cannot continue to use it.

1. Try a reset (ignore)
2. Clean docking port with clean tooth brush
3. Try another wall socket

5. Try another charger (make sure it's an original Apple charger) -
My phone ran out of charge last night and now it won't turn on when I charge it!
I've left it charging for about an hour now, the charger is brand new so it can't be that, and I can't restart it because my lock button is broke:(( anyone know what might be wrong or what I can do to sort it out:(
Typically you would want to reset device however since you can not.
Perhaps trying other wall outlets. -

iPod touch 3rd generation crashed while updating, and now it won't turn on, and it won't charge or be recognized in iTunes because it's completely dead; it's been dead for 3 days now. I've tried pressing home/sleep buttons for reset but nothing works, I've tried using different usb ports to charge it, but nothing seems to work. Please help asap. ...Thanks!(:
After charging the iPod for half an hour, see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow iTunes to see the iPod so you can restore the iPod. For recovery mode see:
