Q: Restoring my Ipod is not working. It restarts itself during the boot up process and the white bar under the apple logo is always so close to reaching the end but it restarts and tells me to restore it again.

    Have you tried restoring through iTunes?  If not, try pressing and holding the center 'Select' button and the top 'Menu' buttons together until it restarts.  Once you it restarts and you see the Apple logo, press and hold the left 'Previous' and center 'Select' buttons together to go into the diagnostics.  You can run tests through that and see if it's a hard drive issue or software issue.
