Why is my ipod touch screen black and when i try to turn it on it won't turn on ?

i was listening to my ipod last week and it went dead , so i plugged it in to my laptop to charge it & to download some songs , the icon that shows its charging didn't come up so i left it in for an our or 2 but my computer still detected the ipod & itunes came up straight away, so wen i went back to it it still wasn't charged so i tried to turn it on the screen went white for a few seconds and ten back to black , my ipod still won't come on. anyone ave any idea's?

Sorry to hear that you're having problems. Tried a restore with iTunes? If not try it and it should work. If this does not work, take it to your local applestore as ths COULD (not saying it is definately) be a Hardware issue.
Hope this helps, Let me know hoe you get on!

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • IPod touch is frozen and when i try to click on my ipod in itunes my itunes freezes

    My ipod touch needed a reboot so i did. Now my ipod is stuck on the loading spiral. I cannot restore due to the fact i cant place my ipod in recovery nor DFU mode. Also everytime i plug my ipod into the computer and click on it in itunes, the itunes program freezes. I would like to know how to fix this as this ipod is not even a year old yet. Thank you. ( This is an ipod touch 4g running ios 5.0.1)

  • I have an iPod touch 4th generation and when I try to upgrade to iOS 5.1.1 it says that all my apps will delete but I dont want them too, what should I do?

    I don't want to lose all my apps but I want to upgrade my iPod. Is there any other way to upgrade it but not lose all my apps, and if so what is it?

    - Update on the computer you sync with that has allthe apps and other synced media in its iTunes library.
    - If on another computer
    - Transfer iTunes purchases to the new computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program like on of those discussed here:
    newer copy
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup. The iPod will be updated too.
    Note that the iPod backup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like apps and music.
    See:
    iOS 5: Updating your device to iOS 5

  • Why is my ipod touchs screen blank?, why is my ipod touchs screen blank?

    Why is my ipod touchs screen blank?

    how do you mean? does it not turn on? or is it on but nothing booting up?
    If it doesn't turn on is it possible that the battery is totally drained? if so, charge it fora  while and see if that fixes it. If it doesn't boot up you can try resetting it - hold down the sleep and home keys, past the red power down slider and until you see the silver apple logo come up.
    You can also try restoring it with iTunes.
    If that doesn't work then you may need to take it into the Apple store and have them take a look at it.

    Your iPod has dropped into Recovery mode. You'll need to restore it via iTunes on your computer.

  • My Ipod touch went black and won't turn on

    My Ipod touch went black and won't turn on

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - 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 have an iPod touch, 3rd generation, and when I push the button to put it to sleep, my iPod takes a screen shot.  It's really annoying.  Is this a result from updating to iOS 4.3.3?  Also, my screen is EXTREMELY sensitive-breathe on it and it turns on.

    - Are you also having problems with the Home button?  Maybe it is sticking a little since to take a screen shot you depress the Home and Power/Sleep buttons at the same time.
    - I have not seen your problem discussed here before.
    - I would first try resetting the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next would be to restore the iPod via iTunes.  First from backup and if problem persists, restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • My ipod touch got stolen and when i got it back it said connect to itunes how do i get my apps and information on it back while restarting it through itunes?

    my ipod touch got stolen and when i got it back it said ipod disabled connect to iTunes how do i get my information from notes, contacts, etc. and apps on it back while restarting it through iTunes?

    Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see the following. This will get the iPod like it was when the backup was made. This is you only possible way of getting your information back since when the iPod is in recovery mode (the screen show conect to iTunes) the iPod is already erased.
    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.

  • I have an IPOD touch 4th generation. When I try to go and buy apps from Itunes and App store it askes for ssecurity codes because it is the 1st time using it. can not remember. How do I reset it or find them?

    I have an IPOD touch 4th generation. When I try to buy apps from apps store and Itunes it says this is the 1st time doing it so wants me to answer security questions. Granddaughter put 2 in the ipod but can't remember them. how do i either change them so I know what they are or just take them out again?

    Strange; yesterday there was a link via which you could get a reset email sent, but today that link is missing. So if you've forgotten your answers, there is no way around the problem without involving Apple. Go here:
    http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    to report the issue to the iTunes Store.
