Hi,

I had the same problem. Sounds like you may need to put your Touch into `recovery` mode. Turn your Touch off then while holding JUST the Home button on the Touch, plug it into your computer. Keep holding the Home button (on the iPod) until something appears on your iPods screen. After this, iTunes should recognise your iPod and offer to do a full restore for you.

Hope this helps.

I've had the same thing happen to me. I've tried for the past day and I've had no luck with it. The ipod crashed right after i downloaded an app. I've been seeing many postings today with people having the same problem...it makes me wonder if there is possibly something wrong w.some apps or one in particular.
I cant get my ipod to work so I guess I'm going to the Apple Store.

I just want the darn thing to work! *Apple should NEVER EVER talk about the problems Microsoft have EVER again, I have NEVER had this many problem with any of my PC in 15 years! This SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*

I had the same problem and I took my iPod Touch to the Genius Bar. They replaced my iPod with a new one without really knowing what the problem was. Its only been a few days and the same problem is having once again....It definitely is an application issue. Per the recommendation made by a person that had the same problem, I am restoring my iPod right now. It is taking a very long time just to reset itself.... This is a very big waste of time and frustrating for all iPod owners. Also, it must be costing Apple $$$ to replace for those having this same issue. I am hesitant on re-installing my apps, nor puchasing new ones... This should be considered a serious matter. Apple definitely needs to investigate immediately to resolve this issue.
