my ipod touch screen is not responding

Have you tried a reset by holding the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts?

Or you may want to connect to your computer and iTunes and check it out there, and restore.

Also, Have a look here > http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1827

If resetting doesn't work, and restoring via iTunes doesn't work, might be time to visit the genius bar and have the techs run some checks to see where the problem is. Could be the screen itself.

Visiting an Apple store genius bar is free, service may not be depending on warranty/AppleCare coverage. This is a physical visit, not on-line.

after calling apple and driving 30 miles to the apple store I got it to work honest ,I kept restoring with itune I world restore about 4 times I know ,then I uncheck all the boxes and did not download any music ,etc.ok when it start to upload the software I kept rubbing were the place were the slide bar and it got warm on my hand and as it went all the way out it came on .I cant relieve it they knew that it was not an hard drive issue ,they wanted my $149.00 dollars .snd another thing ,she told me to drop a few alcohol drops in the ear part i drop one small drop twice so i know by doing one or the other it work now i am so so glad

here is the thing that i just did, and i did it just because i dont have warranty on my ipod or the time to go to a store.
with a flat screwdriver i lifted the screen and realized that the connection from the screen was loose and making the screen work erratically. just press the connection back in place and it should be working fine.

BUT... THE THING IS THAT NOW THE SEAL ON THE EDGE OF THE SCREEN FELL OFF, SO DONT TRY THIS UNLESS ITS YOUR LAST OPTION. LIKE SOLDIERS THAT ARE DEPLOYED, AND HAVE FEWER OPTIONS.

Worked perfect for me. TYVM 😀
