iPod nano (6th generation) won't boot after charging

Plugged in to a power source it is 100% charged. When I unplug it the nano will not boot up. I tried to reset by holding down the power button and the volume button to no avail. Any suggestions?

Ipod mini won't restart after system update. I connect my iPod mini to my MacBook Air and update the software to the latest version (16.9 IIRC). I disconnect it from my Mac per the on screen instructions and connect it to power. It then continually flashes on and off ad infinitum. Any idea what the problem might be? Thanks! Michael

Old iPod I have an old iPod classic, Not sure if it's a thin or thick model but it's boot looping on charge, and only on charge. It also only shows the apple logo for a couple seconds, so there's no chance to use disk mode or do any HDD tests. (this is my first submission, i'm very new here.)

Resurrecting my iPod 5th generation with "very low battery" Hello, Apple community. I have a 60GB 5th generation iPod with click wheel that I'm trying to recharge and gain access to. (It has my music library on it.) I've plugged it into my computer to charge and have left it plugged in for a few hours. Every couple of minutes, I hear the hard drive whir, see the Apple logo light up on the screen, as if it's powering up, but then the screen darkens and I see the message "Please wait. Very low battery." I assume that the battery isn't holding enough charge to power up the device, so I'm wondering if there's anything I can do. Are replacement batteries even possible? Will the machine eventually capture enough charge to start itself?? Or is my data permanently inaccessible?? I'd appreciate any advice the community might have. Thank you!
