My computer won't read my iPod and my iPod will not turn on what can i do?

Your first problem where the computer won't read your iPod is because it can only read it when it is on. Since your iPod won't turn on, it won't recognize it. Try plugging the iPod into a few separate computers, and if that doesn't work, hold the power and home button simultaneously for six seconds.
