Plug it into a wall charger if you have one, or back onto the computer to see if it will charge, as it might be a low battery issue.

If not, press and hold Menu and select/center, until the ipod reboots/resets, and you see the apple menu. Then your ipod should be working.

If it still does not, press menu+select again to reset, but right as it shows the apple logo/when you hear the hard disk moving (if you have a video/classic/one with a hard disk) move your finger from menu to play, while keeping your finger on center. This will engage Disk mode, where you can plug it into your computer and format the disk.

This will erase all songs/data. once you have formatted (to FAT32) through My Computer (by right clicking your ipod, and clicking format) Open iTunes and 'restore' your ipod, which will reinstall the firmware/software. For formatting, you can do 'quick format' if you want, it doesn't matter.

Hope this helps!

I need help getting a code for my apple ipod a1236. my ipod is locked and I don't know my code. can u help please?

Hi rooney822
If you have forgotten the code or put the wrong code in your ipod, you can unlock the Ipod by doing the following:
Connect your IPod to the primary computer you use it with (the first one Ipod synced with), and open iTunes.
When you disconnect iPod from the computer, it will no longer be locked.
If you can't unlock Ipod using either (the code or connecting it to the computer you use to manage its songs). . . you can restore your ipod to factory settings using ipod Updater.
Please note that this will erase all data on your ipod.
Afterwards, you can add your music and data back to your ipod.
If you want to change the primary computer that your Ipod is associated with, do this:
1. Restore your iPod. WARNING: The restore process cannot be undone.
All of your songs and files will be deleted.
Always make a backup of your important data.
2. Connect your ipod to the computer that you want to be the primary computer.
3. Open iTunes and synchronize.
If you can't unlock your ipod and you don't have access to the primary computer, your only option is to restore the Ipod, which will erase all music and data.

My ipod is disconected

You need to flash your iPod Touch (I believe you have that one) with a firmware file. (Please note that all your music will be deleted! Use IFunBox for backuping your music)

1. Download new iPod Touch 2G firmware from here
2. Connect your iPod & open iTunes
3. Hold down the Shift button on your keyboard and click Restore in iTunes
4. Browse and select the .ipsw (firmware) file you downloaded
5. The process will start and will take about 15 minutes, after that the secutiry code will be reset and you can use your iPod again!

2. Install it.
3. After iTunes installed, connect your iPod and sync music from your computer to your iPod through iTunes.

The mp3 i downloaded to my ipod is not listed, but show on pc

You need to use itunes to sync the music onto your ipod.  You can't simply drag the music into the E:/ drive.  Download itunes and then plug your ipod in.
