In this situation, you may only need to recharge the iPod to start using it again. If the device won&#39;t turn on, work through the following steps: Use the cable that came with the Apple device and plug the iPod Touch into a spare USB port on a computer. Use a power adapter if you prefer to charge from an outlet.

Wait up to 5 minutes until the Battery icon appears. If there is a longer delay before the Battery icon appears, the device's battery is very low on power.

It'll need a longer charge in this case. If the Battery icon doesn't display after 5 minutes, use recovery mode, which wipes everything on the device and restores it to the factory defaults, so this should be your last option. Restore the device from a recent backup of your iTunes library after you successfully boot it in recovery mode.

One of the first things to try is a soft reset. Rather than completely restoring the iPod Touch, which deletes your iTunes Store purchases, a soft reset forces the device to reboot its operating system — iOS in this case. This process is non-destructive and ensures that you regain control of your iPod without the risk of losing music and other media.
