Why is my ipod touch not working?

I have tried everything!!! I have searched everywhere on the internet for ways to fix it but i cannot find anything to solve my problem!
I have tried charging it for a whole day that did not work, I tried the home and lock button for 30 seconds etc, I have tried pressing the home for 5 seconds then the lock for 10 then the home again for 5, I have tried putting it in recovery mode, I need to know what is wrong with it!!! It is only around a year old... It has'nt been used since around August but surely a whole day on charge will be ok??
PLEASE CAN SOMEONE HELP

Try DFU mode and then restore

  • Why does my iPod touch not work in hot climate

    just returned from holiday and iPod touch would not work while sunbathing but was ok when returned to hotel room. Does it shut down if temperature is too hot?

    Many thanks, Apple do indeed still sell the iPhone 4S however you are limited to 8GB which is quite restrictive but here's the link http://store.apple.com/uk/buy-iphone/iphone4s However new... Ebay, but check the seller, Carphone Warehouse but will be on contract and maybe Amazon, other than that I would do a bit of research and check if there are any other retailers, due to the popularity of the iPhone 4S it is rare to get a brand new high memory capacity phone, best of luck in your search

  • Why is my iPod touch not working with my car stereo after the update?

    I updated to iOS 6 and now my iPod will not play when I plug into my car stereo with the USB port and cable. I am very frustrated!

    You can try:
    - Reset the iPod. 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 iPod.
    However, sometime an iOS update breaks compatibility. If that is the case you will have to wait for either the car manufacturer or Apple to issue a an update to correct the problem.

    why has my ipod touch not offered an ios7 update?
    it is currently on the iOS 6.1.3

  • IPOD TOUCH NOT WORKING WITH ITUNES

    I am using:
    iPod Touch 16GB 1.1.4 (With $25 Software Upgrade)
    Windows Vista Premium Edition
    iTunes 7.6.2
    Whenever I connect my iPod, the device connect sound is made and it shows up in the my computer window, but it will not show up or sync with iTunes.
    I HAVE ALREADY TRIED THE FOLLOWING:
    Reseting the computer
    Reseting the iPod
    Using a different USB port
    Using a different cable
    Erasing ALL of the iPod's contents (Yes I lost my $25 update as well)
    Restarting the "APPLE MOBILE DEVICE SUPPORT" in the "systems" application
    ...As well as many other things, all with absolutely NO results.
    I have tried to manage my ipod through other programs, nothing seems to work. I connected the iPod to a different computer and everything worked fine.
    I ASSUME the problem has something to do with the iPod Touch's drivers; for whatever reason they might be corrupted or installed incorrectly, thus preventing the iPod from automatically reinstalling them as well as preventing the possibility of syncing.
    My question is, how can I reinstall the drivers without having the iPod touch do it automatically?
    Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

    I fixed the problem myself.
    If anyone else has this same problem and is looking to fix it, here is what I did.
    I found this on another site:
    "Okay well I spent about an hour on the phone with Apple trying to fix this problem. The guy I talked to seemed to have delt with this problem before. He tould me that Apple was getting numerous calls about the iPod touch not connecting with iTunes. So here is the solution that worked for me.
    The first thing you must do it uninstall iTunes and Quicktime using the controll pannel, add/remove hardware, on your windows computer. Once you have uninstalled both of thoes programes go ahead and look for anything else that is Apple and uninstall them as well. There should be an Apple updater or driver that is very critical to uninstall, this was the cause of iTunes not recognizing the new iPod Touch. Next make shure you have the very latest update for Windows on your computer, you can check this on Microsofts web page. Finnaly once you are shure you have UNINSTALLED EVERYTHING that says Apple, iTunes, or Quick time restart your computer and MAKE SHURE THAT YOUR IPOD IS NOT CONNECTED TO YOUR COMPUTER. Then download the newest version of iTunes and install it. Once the installation is complete go ahead and connect the iPod Touch and everything should work.
    I am not shure if this will work for everyone but in my situation it worked. I hope it helps some of you out there!!"
    That worked like a ******* charm. Hope this helps.

  • Mail on iPod Touch not working after iCloud password change

    A few days ago, I was prompted to change the mail password for my iCloud account.  My iPad and MacBook mail were both successfully updated and then accessed.  When I tried my iPod, it said the password was incorrect.  I delted the account and added it again, but the account is still not accessble.
    After some research, I think my iPod is a second-generation model.  It was purchased two years ago this month, so I was disappointed to see that it cannot be updated to iSO 5.  Because I cannot have this upgrade, I cannot get the iCloud option in Settings which would help me out. I suspect this is the root of my mail problem.
    Is there any way to get my mail to work?

    Update:  I just spent some time with an on-line chat.  Turns out that when I switched to iCloud a few months ago, I missed an opportunity that started on May 1, 2012.
    For those of you who have not yet made the switch to iCloud, the paragraph below might help.  Please note that the Apple help said that I should use Firefox rather than Safari to access the site.  Crazy!  Why would an Apple Application not work.
    What if I just want to keep using my email on all my devices?
    As of May 1, you can choose to keep using your mail after MobileMe ends, even on devices that don’t meet the iCloud system requirements. Just go to me.com/move and select the option to keep using your email after MobileMe ends. Once you have completed this short process, your mail will continue to work on devices that don’t meet the iCloud requirements after MobileMe ends on June 30, 2012.

  • IPod Touch not working with Verizon fivespot modem

    I cannot get my iPod Touch to work with my Verizon Fivespot hotspot. The hot spot shows up in the WAN settings, but when I try to reach the internet it says it is not available. The Touch works fine with my home hotspot. Any ideas?

    Do other devices work with it? What says "not available"? Is it Safari when you try to connect to a website? If you go into the network settings what IP address is assigned to the iPod? Do wifif arc show on the upper left? Have you looked at the documentation for the Verizon product?

  • 1st Gen iPod touch not working correctly?

    I have a 1st generation 8GB iPod Touch. It's not working correctly.
    My biggest problem is that, unexplaiably, certain areas of the screen don't seem to register touch anymore. There is a sort of "L" shape on the left and bottom edges of the screen that won't register touch, making it impossible to move applications to the previous page on the home screen and making it hard to use the keyboard/buttons while in portrait mode. It's extremely frustrating to try to change the volume while playing a song, as I now have to either put the iPod in sleep mode then double tap the home button or flip it to cover flow and double tap the home button to do it.

    (Highlight the image to see it better.)
    This is a screenshot of the working/non-working areas that I made using the Whiteboard application. The white area that you see (excluding the little half circles of black which are extended brush strokes and not actually working areas) is the area that doesn't work. I can't seem to figure out why it happened, as I've never dropped or otherwise damaged it. It just happened one day, and I don't know why.
    But I can't fix it. I've tried everything. Upgrading (I'm now running iPhone OS 3.0 which still didn't fix the problem.) didn't work, restoring didn't work, deleting everything and restoring from factory settings didn't work.
    I'm also having a few other problems as well, though they're not as bad. My home button seems to stop working sometimes and sometimes the entire screen witll stop registering touch until I put the iPod to sleep and turn it back on. It also seems to go a lot slower than usual.
    My iPod is less than a year old. Can you help?

    Vipershark,
    I had a very similar problem this past weekend with my 1G 8GB iPod touch. But with me, just the left side of the screen wasn't registering my touch. I could still access the bottom section, which you cannot.
    The good news for me is that I fixed it and I hope it works for you as well. What fixed it for me was resetting all my settings. To do this, go to the settings icon, then click on general, and then on the very bottom is reset. Choose "reset all settings."
    Apparently this is different than a restore through iTunes, which you tried. I also tried that earlier and it did not help.
    Of course, the reset solution I used relies on you being able to access all of the correct buttons, so I hope you can!
    Please let us know if this works for you. If not, since it is less than a year old, it is still under warranty. Contact Apple and see what they can do.

  • Why does my ipod touch not automatically sync with itunes

    When I connect my ipod touch to my laptop it says that it has sync'd on itunes but does not sync the music that I have downloaded onto my ipod touch!! I am going round in circles with the troubleshooting manual as the page on itunes that I have looks totally different to the page that is described in the manual. My laptop is new and Windows 7 and I have downloaded the latest version of itunes. My ipod touch is new as well. Can anyone help?

    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync the media you want to sync?
