I'm assuming you mean the screen went black? Try holding the power button and the home button for 10 seconds, maybe more if necessary. Works everytime for me. 🙂 Hope this helps. If not, take it into an Apple store... That being said, if it's an iPod with a jb version of iOS, they won't doing anything about it. Jb, destoys the waranty on it. :\

Dry the iPod in a sealed container with uncooked rice for a week and periodically change the rice. Do not turn on our charge until dry.

Then:

Try:

- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.

- Try another cable

- Try on another computer

- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
