Try a reset, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo. If you cannot get the device to reboot for you to see your content, you will have to try to restore it via iTunes. See this support document for help with that.http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808


You may not be able to back it up if you cannot get it to stay on.
