My ipod won't turn on anymore?

Question

I've went to the apple website and tried their 5 steps to fix an ipod that won't turn on... But it didn't work... So I came here looking for help.

The ipod has not been dropped, nor has water damaged. It just stopped turning on. When I went to plug it into my computer, I got a message that said something about the ipod needing to be reformatted in order to work with windows (never happened before). Then I got another message about the ipod being corrupted and needing to be restored... I tried to restore with the newest version first, didn't work. Then I tried with the same version, didn't work. Now, my computer won't even recognize my ipod.

Can someone, anyone help? (out of warranty)

Answer 1

Sounds like an issue with the battery.  Take it back to Apple store and have them put in a new one.  If that doesn't work - then the iPod is hosed.  Get a new one.

Answer 2

what i can say to do, is try to restore everything to its original settings when you connect the ipod to itunes, and have it re download everything to the ipod, i don't know if that willl help, but it is worth a try..

if that wont help, i also suggestt that you go into the nearest apple store, and ask them what you can do, i say to go ask apple store in person, so they can help you fix the ipod problem.
