Hey for those who couldn't fix their ipod using the suggested methods try using the method from here >http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=1034 it works..I just tried it out since I could not fix my ipod using the suggested method either. It might take a few tries before you get to the recovery mode and its not always a black screen sometimes it will appear with the screen saying connect to itunes. Hope you get to fix your ipod :) If you need any help feel free to ask me
 
hi my ipod was jailbroken. recently it didnt startup properly. previously my home button was spoilt
and i sentt it for service at sapura. and does this mean they will find that its jailbroken? and if they find out what happens?
HELP!!
 
ok guys, i have tried everything that is on this thread, but nothing works...i get the apple logo with a loading disc, i spins for a sec and then stops....thats it, itunes does not see it, the computer does not see it, from time to time it resets and goes again...other thing to mention is that the battery logo comes up...tried it on full charge and still nothing, is the ipod dead or not? by the way i believe it to be an ipod touch 1st gen 8gb..thanks in advance :)

It worked for me, the sad thing is that it already happened before i even put anything onto my ipod touch... £180 brand new... shocking to be honest =\
 
my itouch has the same problem, except when i plug it into the computer it doesnt show up in itunes, and the sleep button doesnt work, so i cant put it in dfu mode. is there anything else i can do or am i out of luck?
 
Don't waste money on Apple tech support

We just spend 3 hours on the phone with tech support going in a circle and never resolved the issue!! Nor did the tips in this thread. It was locked real good. So we marched it up to 'BestBuy' and the Geek squad took it under their wing and fixed it in 1/2 hour. Total cost $29.99 ...total relief 100% . I am just really glad I didn't waste money paying Apple for that call to tech support. I am glad we were still under the 90day free support because they were completely useless in resolving our issue.

1: PLUG YOUR IPOD INTO YOUR COMPUTER!!!

Lucky. when I went to Best Buy, they said it was :apple: so they couldn't fix it. Probably just tried to fake me.
 
ipod touch

Hi I am not happy. I got my Ipod for xmas and everything was good. till two weeks ago when it started just shutting of with little lines as if a glitch. if i tried to search it would go off. so i reset, restored, etc and no luck. i never upgraded nor jailbreak. I wonder if it has something to do with an app cause battery is good and plenty of memory. I took it to apple they could not fix it so they replaced it. Then i tried to use backup and i have no saved games and its doing the same thing the last one did. even worse it wont even come on. What is going on? Could it be a bug from computer or app? maybe i shouldnt off restored apps from old one cause thats where the error may be.

Please help me!
My email chevy3de@yahoo.com

Sincerely,

Shannon


try updating it . the updates apple has usually helps with glitches .

try resetting it by holding gown the home and the lock button until it turns off and then let it go. hope it helped!!
 
Thanks a bunch!

Thanks! I tried the other technique where I had to hold the Power and Hold button while having IPod plus up to USB and iTunes was also up. I saw later I need to restore in iTunes. Your steps was what I was looking for!

Thanks again!!
