Hold the power button and home button for 10 seconds to ensure the device is off. Let go.

Hold the home button down, plug in the ipod to the computer, after the screen changes to the itunes plug screen, let go of the home button.

The ipod will now be in recovery mode, and you can attempt to perform a restore within itunes.

If the restore fails, and the ipod screen stays black, this means the battery is dead and must be replaced.

Plug the damn thing in and let it recharge fully for a few hours.  The green battery icon will pop up on the screen to show you its recharging.  After your done charging try holding down on the power button again.  If you still get nothing, then your fuc..d and need a new battery, but the bastards at Apple have sealed the thing up tighter than a virgins legs and if you crack this nut open, then you will void the warranty.  So, if your within your 1 year Apple warranty, just take the thing back to Best Buy or the Apple Store and tell them the battery won't hold a charge.  They will give you a brand spankin new ipod in exchange.

    I almost forgot:  You have to sync this thing up with your computer before it will recognize the ipod.  You probably did a half *** job and messed it up.  So reboot the thing and try again.  Press at the same time on the power button on top and the home button at the bottom front of the ipod.  Count to 10 Mississippi or Alligator (your preference) then let go of the top button, but keep your finger on the home button for another 10 seconds.  Now you can let go and your ipod will reboot itself.  Now go through the re-sync process correctly and don't fu.k it up.

Hold the home button and power button at the same time untill your ipod turns on. If you have held it for longer than a minute, try charging it.

Connect the iPod to different computers and let it charge for a while. Also, as it's booting w/ the apple logo, press the menu button to force it to recovery mode. That may let you restore it. If all of that fails on any of the computers, you have a broken logic board. You can try to replace the part yourself, it is available on any auction website. There is an iPod touch Repair service that can fix it for you, but if you're a little tech savy you should use an iPod repair guide that teaches you how to do the repair yourself.

My son got ahold of my iphone last night and changed the passcode on it and now he doesnt remember what it was. and i tried turning it off but it wont even turn off i need help please! thank you! :)

Your iPod most likely has now been disabled.
Step 1: Connect your iPod to your computer with the USB cable that came with the iPod.
Step 2: Open up iTunes and scroll down on the left side of the screen
Step 3: Choose your iPod, your right screen should now change to show some general information about your iPod.
Step 4: Scroll down on the right side of the screen until you see a button labeled "Restore". Click it, and it will unlock your iPod and reset it. This will wipe everything off of your iPod, but will sync it back with whatever you have in your iTunes library.

Charged it last night and now it will not turn on

Try a reset: Press and hold the wake/sleep button and the home button simultaneously for ten seconds and the apple logo should appear on the screen. Release the buttons and it should work like normal. Hope this helps.

Ipod touch will not charge

it looks like in all of these cases it's either a battery or a motherboard issue, both can be replaced by a tech savy user or friend if you use an iPod touch repair guide, the parts are readily availabe on ebay.
