4th gen wont turn on! please help.

I haven't had my ipod touch 4th gen on for about a week. I tried to turn it on and the charging screen showed up. After a few seconds it said it was turning on but then the screen went black and then the charging screen showed up again. I have tried different chargers and I tried to reset it by holding the home and power button. It doesn't show up on itunes when i have it plugged in. It has done this before and one day it just started working. Any suggestions?

Not Charge

- See:

iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting

iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery

If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

- Try another cable.

- Try another charging source

- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

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.
