New iPod touch wont turn on or charge

it works.. thank you

I did this and itunes started to restore my ipod but then an error box came up saying it couln't restore

Hello Nirvusrek,

Try this:

1-Quit iTunes.

2-Locate the iPodUpdaterExt.dll file in Windows Explorer. This is typically found at the following location:
C:\Program Files\iTunes

3-In Windows Vista, on the Start menu, click All Programs, click Accessories and click Run Alternately, in Windows XP and 2000, from the Start menu, click Run.

4-Type cmd in the Open field and click OK.

5-At the command prompt, type regsvr32 followed by a space.

6-Type the path to the dll, as shown in the example below:
regsvr32 "c:\Program Files\iTunes\iPodUpdaterExt.dll"

7-Press Enter and a dialog should appear stating:
DllRegisterServer in c:\Program Files\iTunes\iPodUpdaterExt.dll succeeded.

8-Click OK and close the Command window.

9-Open iTunes and try to restore or update the iPod.

Good Luck!

Bionik you are a gem! Just bought an ipod and was getting so frustrated!!! it just was not coming up until I googled and landed here!

How do you restore after the iTunes icon appears? I am trying to fix my son's new ipod touch and I don'the have a clue what to do. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Thank You so much

My iPod won't turn on either. I can't do the home/sleep button trick bc the home button is busted and is stuck down. Is there anyway to turn it on without having to go to the Apple Store and pays tons of money?
