Turning the iPod Touch off.

Whenever I turn off my iPod Touch 32gb and turn it back on, it starts off with recovery mode, and then it makes me restore the iPod on iTunes. This has happened quite a few times, and everytime I restore I lose all my songs and apps. Is this supposed to happen?

IM having the same problem. What happened to me was i tried to update my ipod from 2.2.1 firmware on a 2gen ipod touch, to FW 3.0. in the middle of the update (the bar on the pod was about halfway complete) i recieved an error message, the pod went black, and HAS NOT turned on or ANYTHING since then. NO hard reset, no restore. NOTHING is working. Plugging into the comp and it says the USB has encountered an error, but no resolution. I Tried to plug it into the wall socket for about 5 hrs and still no action from the pod.
It seems to be a FW issue of it not installing completely/properly. SOoooooOoo... where do i go from here???

  • Is it bad to turn your iPod touch off every night? If I don't, the screen will be blank/distorted.

    I just got my new iPod touch from Fry's electronic, and just last night, I put it on sleep thoughout the whole night. I wake up, press the home button, and it lights up a gradiant grey-white. It happened the other day when I was playing with Draw Something. I then tried turning it off, and it took forever. But now its working. So I was wording if it's bad/not the best to turn your iPod touch off everynight, and if you do it?

    I just let my iPod sleep overnight. I turn on airplane mode to minimnize battery drain.

  • Turning the iPod Mini OFF

    Using the click wheel, I can pause easily but turning the iPod off is really difficult. I don't know whether I'm holding the Pause button down too long, not long enough or if there's an easier way.
    It seems when I turn my iPod off the battery lasts longer than when I pause it and it falls into a deep sleep.
    What can I do to make it easier to turn my iPod off?

    Hi Sparklefufu;
    I was having problems shutting down my iPod Mini. Then it got itself into a state where it needed to be reset it. I wasn't able to get reset to work. I brought to the Apple store and they reset it. They then asked me to reset it. It appears I was applying too much pressure. When I applied only enough pressure to make the switch click it worked. Now the shut down is working for me every time.

  • How do you turn the iPod Classic off?

    My mum can't turn her iPod classic off properly, can u help?

    A long press on the Play button makes it shut down.
    If it doesn't respond check the Hold switch.
    If it still doesn't respond press Menu+Select for about 6 seconds to reset the device.

  • Should i turn the zen touch off when recharging?? or should i leave it o

    thanks.

    You can either of the two.
    If you go to settings you can turn idle shutdown time OFF, and that way your player will always stay on when you are charging.
    Wheter or not you want it on is up to you...

  • HT1414 I had my ipod touch off and when I tried to turn it off the best I could get was the apple logo than that went out.  I can't get it come on at all.  It was working fine earlier and nothing has happen to it.

    I tried to turn on my ipod touch and the best I could get was the apple logo and even that went out.  I tried charging it with no luck.  It had charge yesterday when I turned it off but now I can't get anything at all.  Any suggestions???

    If the reset does not work try the remaining items:
    - 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 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.

  • Buying Ipod touch off a friend

    Buying the ipod touch off a friend how do i change the devise soo it's registered to me and not her

    You can connect to iTunes and restore to factory new. What also might work is to erase all content and settings via that reset options in Settings>General>Reset. The latter one can take hours.

  • My iPod touch has no sound when I play music or use the iPod touch at all.  Yes, the volume in the "sounds" is all the way up.  It has not been dropped or gotten wet.  I turned it off and on.  now what?

    My ipod touch (4th generation) has no sound.  I have turned it off and on.....I have the volume up in the "sounds" area.  When I push the side volume button, there is no image that appears in the screen that shows that I am either raising or lowering the volume.  Do I need to just rest the ipod touch as a new device? Or is there someting else I can try?

    And, now when I do press the side volume buttons, the image appears but with the words' "sound effects."  what does that mean?

  • The iPod touch 5 battery won't charge, the iPod battery gets hot and doesn't turn on...  What is wrong?  Can photos and data be retrieved?

    The iPod touch 5 battery won't charge, the iPod battery gets hot and doesn't turn on...  What is wrong?  Can photos and data be retrieved?

    - See:      
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. I suspect a hardware problem  due to the hotness. If iTunes can't see the iPod then uor only hope if to contact a data recovery company for getting data off the iPod. If you have an iPod backup you can restore another iPod, iPhone or iPad from the backup to get the data that was in the backup

  • When i turn my ipod touch 4g on it goes from the apple logo to the white wheel then to a blank white screen, please help

    After using itunes to restore it i turned my ipod touch on and it stayed on the apple logo for a few minutes then it would change to a spinning wheel on a black screen then the screen would turn white and the process will repeat. I can still put it in dfu mode and recovery mode but they don't help. So hopefully someone in this community can help me. And this all started when i updated it to ios 6.1.3 from 6.1.2. and also my computer and itunes dont recognize it

    What am I supposed to do next?

    - What happens when you turn the iPod back on?
    - For a 1G and 2G Pod, erasing all contents and settings can take hours and you need to have it connected to a chargings source.
    - You may have to place the iPod in recovery mode and then retore via iTunes.  For recoverymode:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
