- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

- If still problem connect the iPod to its computer and try to restore the iPod via iTunes.
- If iTunes does not see the iPod, see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will make it visible so yu can restore it. For recovery mode see:

My iPod Touch 4th generation just won't download apps. I have tried everything I can think of. Please help!

Hi, when you say you have tried everything... I presume you have gone into Settings > Store and logged out and back in with your account details?
You could try purchasing an app via iTunes to see if its an issue with the device or the account you're using.
Hope this helps.

TS2771 my ipod touch 4th generation screen is frozen...

my ipod touch 4th generation screen is frozen on the charging screen even if I try to turn it off or unplug it. Non responsive to any button being pressed. Itunes and pc will not recognize device when plugged into it. How do I fix this?

Have you tried holding both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together at the same time long enough for the Apple logo to appear. This could take anywhere from 10 seconds to a minute, so don't give up too quickly. Otherwise, try the other suggestions in this Apple support document.

I just bought an ipod touch 4th generation recently,found that it is very difficult to plug and unplug the USB cable from my ipod.Does anyone have this problem?

I just bought an ipod touch 4th generation recently, found that it is very difficult to plug and unplug the USB cable from my ipod. Does anyone have this problem?

Some of the Dock connector cables have very small buttons on the rounded adge of the plug, which need to be pushed in to release the plug from the iPod. Look at the picture below, do you notice the "button" on the white connector edge? There's one on the other edge too and they both need to be pressed in to release the "evil looking spike" sticking out of the grey edge.
The shorter plugs (that I've seen) do not have the release mechanism, the plug simply pulls out.

My ipod touch 4th gen. will not allow me to adjust volume with my speaker, but will with headphones. How do i fix this?

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
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.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack or other hardware problem

Turned off iphone 5 to preserve its battery and now it won't turn back on

Hello!
I've got my iPhone 5 16gb around 1 year now and today, i needed to preserve its battery life (97% remaining )so i turned it off. A few minutes in i needed to make a phone call but it won't turn back on. I've tried the recommended tips such as:
holding both home and lock screen button
DFU mode
Charging it
Nothing seems to work, i do not know whether the lock screen is broken or not or just whether its a battery or ios problem. Funny thing is that a few days before this incident, there was an 7.1.2 update so yeah idk. Please help. It will be a pain to buy another iPhone

Hey there iDopey,
It sounds like you are currently unable to turn on your iPhone on or it is on, but the screen is black. First determine if the unit is on but has a black screen with this:
Display has no backlight or dark screen
Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.
If this is the case follow the last step in this post. If not, then move on to this section:
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.
If that still does not resolve the issue:
Issue not resolved
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?

My brand new iPod Touch 4th Generation, just isn't functioning correctly.

Recently, I bought a brand new iPod 4th gen. Since, it has gone haywire and refuses to function correctly. It is 16 gb and operating on iOS 6.0.1. On many apps, especially games, it can get really laggy at times, for no discernable reason. I have very few apps installed, and a great internet connection, so I can't understand why that would occur. Also, Safari is absolutely useless. When opened, under any circumstances, It goes to a default white screen:
Then it can do NOTHING else. Upon further inspection, this seems to happen to a couple default apps. Such as:
-Calendar
-Maps
-Mail
After about 20 seconds of blankness, it then force-closes to the home screen. In addition, Game Center has become a pain in the butt; it just won't leave me alone. Anytime I try to open a game with internet capabilities (ie.Vector,The Sandbox, etc.), it pops up wanting me to sign in, yet it wont work. When I try to sign in, it never works the first time. I have to home-screen, then click the app again to open it up to the same page, before it even shows the keyboard, not to mention, at this screen, the keyboard is horizontal (landscape) while the rest of the screen is vertical (portrait). From this point, signing in does nothing, it will bring up the buffering circle and spin for about 10 minutes, before promptly force closing. I can't get out of that screen either, when it comes up asking for my log in, the cancel button becomes absolutely worthless, it does nothing. I've disabled Game Center's notification and changed it's capabilities, but it STILL comes up when I try to eneter a game. The only way around it is to completely TURN OFF my Wi-Fi. Thus rendering a lot of in-game content worthless. Lastly, sometimes the Game Center opens Safari, but since it doesn't do anything, I have no idea what to do. Home-screening does not work, as less than a second later, Safari opens again, and again, and again. The only way to stop this annoying cycle, is to completely SHUT-OFF my iPod.The iPod is only a little over a week old, and it ****** me off that I already want to put it down the disposal.

My Ipod Touch 32gb 4g home button has started freezing. I press home and it only occasionally works. How can i fix this?

I want to know is it the software or is it broken.
I press home to return to the main menu and it 40% of the time works. It makes using the Ipod difficult and uncomfortable and i'm really dissapionted and don't want to use it for fear that it will get worse.
Not only this but sometimes when i press lock screen it just flashes the screen.
I updated to Ios5 recently and had no problems. I have 1GB of memory left. All my apps are functioning no bother.
I havent bashed my ipod around, the screen only has minor scratches so i don't think i've been careless however my broter and sister regularly use it too so it doesn't have much rest time.
Also is it better to power off or lock screen at night?
I thank you for any replies, does anybody else have the same problem?

Try here:

I place mine in airplane mode at night to minimize battery drain.

IPad Mini completely ran out of battery and now wont turn on at all, even after being on charge for a number of hours. What can I do?

My iPad mini ran out of battery yesterday and now won't turn on at all. How do I resolve this?

When the battery goes flat it can 15 to 20 minutes of charging to then be able to get a response from it, but if you've charged it for longer than that they it should have picked up some charge. Have you got a different charger or cable that you could try just in case there is a problem with either of those - an iPhone or iPod charger will work with the iPad, but as they are lower power will take longer.

My ipod touch 4th generation adjusts the volume no matter what headphones i have plugged in. why is this? how can it be fixed?

will apple fix this for me even if im not under warrenty? it gwets annoying having to take my ipod out of my pocket every time i have to turn it up.

They can give you a replacement unit for a flat fee if it's no longer in warranty. See here for pricing.

If a reset, restore from backup, or restore to factory defaults fails to resolve the issue, it's mostly hardware related. In that case setup a replace or repairment either through Apple or a third party repair company.
