When i plug in my ipod touch (8gb, 3rd generation) it doesn't turn on and the apple logo flashes on and off. how can i stop it and turn on my ipod??????

when i plug in my ipod touch (8gb, 3rd generation) it doesn't turn on and the apple logo flashes on and off. before this it wouldn't turn on unless it was plugged in.

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.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My ipod touch 8gb 3rd generation keeps dropping wifi.  I hate to reset since i've downloaded all of my itunes directly to my ipod.  Help!

    My ipod touch 8gb 3rd generation keeps dropping wifi.  Doesn't matter where I am - happend ALL the time.  Almost useless now except for all of my songs!   We don't have any other problems with other computers in our house.  I have downloaded all of my songs from itunes directly to my ipod (I know, I wish I hadn't) so I hate to reset or I will lose them all.  I have never downloaded any updates (I know, I know!) so could this be my problem? How do I find downloads and what do I need?  Please help if you can!

    The reset may help with the WiFi issue, but you'll have to do the reset to be sure. It does seem to cure a wide variety of issues. At some point you should be connecting the iPod to your computer/iTunes account, otherwise you risk losing all of your music and other content if you have a problem with your iPod.

    Try leaving it on a charger? Might be low battery life.
    Try a hard reset holding the Home button and sleep/wake button ( The circle button, and button on top)

  • ITunes and iPod touch 8gb 3rd generation

    I had downloaded some songs to my iPod from iTunes and then something happened when I was syncing the iPod and the computer and now some of the songs are gone off of the music list in my music app on my iPod. I tried to redownload them and it said I had already bought those songs and asked if I wanted to continue. I said no because I have paid for them already and hated to pay for them again if I did. Is there a way to get them back? <edited by host>

  • Need to sync calendars between two iPod touchs,  8GB 3rd Generation

    I use Microsoft Works on my PC and iTunes does not recognize the Works calendar. Therefore I use the iPod's Apps calendar. I recently purchased an identical iPod for my wife and can't find a way to sync the calendars between the two iPods.

    I think you can sync both of them to the same Google Calendar account when you have WiFi access. See this: http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138740&cbid=riutrlst6g 98&src=cb&lev=answer
    Pay special attention to step 13 to avoid problems.

    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. 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.

  • My iPod Touch 8GB 3rd Gen is acting slow.

    I just got my iPod Touch 8gb 3rd gen and it acts slow whenever I try to use youtube, mail, safari and whatever else that needs wi-if. I restored it twice, but no luck. What should I do?

    Humor me: define slow. Slow as in a few seconds, or slow as in 30 seconds, or slow as in a minute or longer?

    Hi cecebabymusik,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    Try the specific steps below for the your iPod touch first:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
    If the issue is not resolved, you may need to uninstall iTunes and all of it's components, and reinstall the latest version as explained in this article:

  • My iPod touch is stuck.  I can't get it to power off.  all that comes up on the screen is the Apple Logo.  Is there anything I can do to fix this problem?

    My iPod Touch is stuck.  I can't get it to power off.  All that comes up on the screen is the Apple Logo.  Is there anything I can do to fix this problem?

    You may need to hold the sleep/wake button and the home button until the apple logo appears. Or anther thing you can try is draining the battery until the battery is dead. That's what i tried and worked. You may need to do those things more than 2 times. OH anther thing is you can try connecting you ipod to your computer and see if it appears on itunes. If those don't work you can send it to apple. So that's what helped me I hope I answered your question.

  • I have created another iTunes library (so I have 1 for an ipod touch and 1 for an iPad), but the apps from the iPad appear in both libraries. How can I stop this so teh 2 libraries are completely separate please?

    I have created another iTunes library (so I have 1 for an ipod touch and a separate 1 for an iPad), but the apps from the iPad appear in both libraries. How can I stop this so the 2 libraries are completely separate? Thanks

    You don't need two separate libraries to manage two devices.
    I suspect the reason that the apps are appearing in both libraries is that you have enabled automatic downloads in iTunes and automatic syncing of apps so that all your purchases end up in both libraries, defeating your original aim.
    Why not use a single library and make playlists for the media content you want on each device? Disable Settings > Store > Automatic Downloads > Apps on each device, then connect each device in turn and turn off Automatically Sync Apps on the Apps page.
    You can now manage your devices independently, while only having to manage the content of one iTunes library, instead of two.

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
