NOTHING i do to this Ipod touch is making the BLANK WHITE SCREEN go away......
Please help! I now hook my ipod touch up to my P.C, and it is NOT RECOGNISING my ipod!! Heres the problem AGAIN, let me make myself a little more clear on WHAT a stupid thing i did earlier..... I receieved a message (ON MY IPOD) saying a new version of I.O.S 6 is available, so it says I needed at least 50% charged, OR had to be plugged in, so I PLUGGED in, and hit the button to update to newest version, then did what I had to do, came BACK to the iPod at 30 min later, and the bar seemed to not be moving, and i had to go to work, so i FORCED A SHUT DOWN by holding the home and the top button together, as i normally would to shut the thing down if something was jammed or whatever....so I did that, and it came back on BY ITSELF with the apple sign, then 5minutes later, the blank screen came up, and NOW every single time I TRY shutting it down, it WON'T STAY OFF, it comes right back on to the apple sign, then back to blank screen every time, can't get it to stay off! And now when I hook to my PC, it's not recognizing the iPod, I don't know how to recover it, cuz the iPod WON'T STAY OFF for me to do it!! And another thing, i let the ipod die completely, then plugged it in to charge, then it came back on as usual by itself, and still done the same thing!! All because i stopped an update in the middle of it updating!! It seems as if i wiped it completely out! But theres gotta be a way to restore??? need to speak with someone on the phone, cuz I don't have the money to spend right now on an apple support person!
Please please READ what I have written before u respond,PLEASE!!because I MANUALLY STOPPED THE UPDATE TO IOS 6 WHILE IT WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF UPDATING (by forcing shutdown in the middle of it all..) and when it turned back on it went right to the white blank screen and has been that way EVER SINCE!! i cannot put in recovery mode, cuz every single time I SHUT my ipod down (by holding the power, and home button at the same time till it shuts down...) it DOES NOT show me the slide bar to power off, and it immediately shuts down (goes black..) then immediately STARTS BACK UP BY ITSELF and shows the APPLE LOGO for about 5 minutes, then goes RIGHT BACK TO THE WHITE, BLANK SCREEN!!!! It will NOT STAY OFF, it WILL NOT SHOW ME THE SLIDE BAR TO POWER OFF MANUALLY, and when I force shutdown, it immediately comes BACK ON BY ITSELF!! And then nothing but white screen! My PC COMPUTER will NOT recognize the iPod as being plugged into USB on my computer for me to RECOVER this IPod, so I do not know what else to do??? I have updated to the latest version of iTunes, and STILL NOTHING!!! This is my kids iPod that I screwed up here, and I am very upset! It's a 4th gen, 32gb iPod touch that is NOT CHEAP at all, and I am freaking out man!!! What do I do?

hello i need help with my ipod touch 8gb 3rd geniration i dont no how to spell gen. because the screen turned white when i did nothing i tried pushing the awake/sleep button with the home menu buttton it did not work eny ideas
Please don't use the over-sized bolded font. It's annoying and, honestly, offensive.
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes." -
My ipod touch 4g got the wsod(white screen of death)
My Ipod got the white screen of death and now I can't figure out how to fix it. I don't have a warrenty so im keeping that as a last resort and I'm like 90% sure its a hardware problem not software. I also can't enter DFU mode because it won't respond or Turn it off WHAT DO I DO!
All you can if it is not a hardare problem is to let the battery fully drain. Then after charging fofr atleast an hour try the rest, restore and recovery mode as required.

Try what you have not tried so far. You may have tried all and the Apple store maybe in order.

My ipod touch has frozen with a white screen. The on/ff and sleep buttons will not work whether pressed for a moment or held for more than 10 seconds as per help pages. When connected to computer it is not recognised and no indication in "devices".It has been working perfectly from Christmas until now. Was watching a TV prog via BBC iplayer when the image and sound froze for about 5 seconds then just white screen. Help

What should i do if my ipod touch 4 gen. has a white screen and it goes away rarely. Should i return it and get a new one?
If the problem persits after restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod then you likely have a hardware problem. In that case an appointment at the Genius Bar of an apple store or returing it to Apple is in order.
