80 Gig I-Pod White Screen

hi
my i-pod's screen has gone copletaly white, when i plug it into the computer it comes up at the bottem right hands corner of the screen as a USB but i-tunes doen't recognise it. when i plug it into the computer the screen goes completaly white and nothing else happens. ive tried resetting it, restoring it and everything.
should i send it into itunes to get fixed or is there an other way i could do to fix it my self.
please help!! its been like this for ages, if i have to send it in can u show me how, i have no idea where to go on the web site to send it in.
help me!!

I've gone to that web site and it worked, i-tunes knews its an i pod and not a USB and i can put all my songs and pod casts on there but then when i want to use the ipod the screen is still completly white. and then when i re-plug it back into the computer it doesnt recognise it again. Do you think that i should send it into Apple and get them to fix it? my ipod is still under warrenty. but my ipod has a cracked screen and the hold butten has fallen out. but the screen broke before my ipod started playing up, do you think Apple will still replace it or fix it that its under warenty but has a broken screen and no hold butten?
please help me!!

How do i fix my white i pod touch screen

how do i fix my i pod touch 4th generation when it has a white screen and wont let me do anything

See Display Shows White Screen Here

If no joy... Try letting the Battery Fully Drain... Then Charge the Device for at least 30 Minutes...

All I have on my I pod touch is a white screen with multicolored lines going across screen. What do I need to do. I can't use I tunes because it says I have to have passcode and can't get screen to come up. I have already tried holding both keys down.

- See if placing the iPod in Recovery mode will allow a restore.. It bypasses the passcode (and erases the iPod)
- Next try DFU mode

For problems with an iPod itself, you'll be most likely to get a quick and applicable answer if you ask in the iPod 5th generation forums.
Good luck.

My I pod touch 32 G has a totally white screen, no matter what I do to reset it. I've only had it maybe a month.

- Try restoring it via iTunes on your computer. First restore from backup and if problems persists restore to factory defaults.
- If itunes does not see the iPod see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will make it visable,
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
Next try placing it DFU mode and restoring it.

If restoring to factory defaults does not solve the problem then an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

"White Screen" error after most recent update 60 gig video iPod

I just received the most recent iPod updater software. I installed the updater and ran same. After the update process my 60 gig video iPOD cannot be recognized by my MAC G5. It has a "White Screen" and WILL NOT turn off! When I attempt a reset it simply gives me a 2 or 3 tone beep (I've never heard the tone before). The screen goes dark and it reboots to a white screen. I've re-installed updater and iTunes. I've switched USB ports. I've shut down the computer as well as rebooted same. I've allowed the iPOD to fully discharge (which happened quickly since the screen will not blank). When the unit is plugged into the USB port it charges and the white screen reappears. The updater now refuses to see the iPod so I cannot reset to factory defaults. Any ideas?
The idiots at Apple instituted a 24/7 chat tech support line for iPod shuttle owners. The guys like me who paid the big bucks for their best product get stuck out in the cold! Apple's whole tech support schtick is barely one step ahead of Dell's! The charge premium prices for their product and I like Apple a lot, but their demand that you be either an Apple Care customer or .MAC user to get even rudimentary support *****!

Ok, for all the others out who experience this problem....I spent about an hour on the phone with Apple. You have to go to their SECOND level of support to get an answer. But there is a fix.
If you have a white screen and the unit beep 3 times after a reboot here's what you need to do to fix the problem. Warning all you data will be lost. It will have to be downloaded via iTunes again!
Disconnect the iPod from the computer. Hold the Select and Menu button down for about 7 seconds to until you get a beep. Then hold down the Select and PLAY button for 10 seconds. This will put the unit in hard disk mode. Wait awhile until the Apple screen goes away and if you get a progress bar wait until it is gone.
At this point it will take some finagling, but you basically hook the iPod back up to the computer and do a RESTORE. The iPod should be recognized by iPod updater. Your data MAY still be in place, but if you do not do a restore to factory defaults with the updater you will get the white-screen-three-beeps-problem again.
Once you reboot into the language screen you can reconnect the iPOD and download your data from iTunes.
I complained this info SHOULD be posted online. They guy was very nice and agreed but said that engineering was still collecting data. He thought it was a dumb idea not to post online or allow the first level support guys to fix the problem.
Hey Apple...if you read this how about collecting data on your goddamned time and at your expense. You're the SOBs that collected $399 for the product! Ever seen the Comcast or AOL video on YOUTUBE? You guys could be next!

I-Pod Keeps Flashing A White Screen.HELP!

Every time I turn my i-Pod on it flashes a white screen with an i-Pod with a sad face on it and below it it reads," www.apple.com/support/ipod". Why is it doing this? The problem just started happening recently. Please, someone help me!

First try the standard reset.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61705
If that does not work, connect the iPod to the computer. Does iTunes see it? If so, try using the Restore button on the iPod's Summary tab (in iTunes). This will erase it and restore its original settings.
If that does not fix the problem, it is likely that that the hard drive has gone bad.

TS1369 Igot white screen on my i pod...

I got white screen on my i pod..Pleese HELP.HELP.....................

Reset the Device:
Hold the power button and the home button down until the device shuts off, then power it back on and see if the problem is resolved.
Put the device in DFU mode:
1. Connect the device to iTunes
2. Hold both the power button and the home button down simultaneously
3. After 10 seconds, release the power button but leave the home button pressed
4. iTunes should then recognize that the device has entered DFU mode and ask to restore.

Pod Freezes Then Goes Onto A White Screen Then Apple Logo Screen, Should I Bring It To Best Buy?

My Pod lately has been going very slow but doesn't have very much Apps or music in it & today it just freezer on my games and then it went onto a white screen then the black Apple logo screen. It's been doing this for a month already. Should I bring it in ?

How old is it? And do you have Black Tie Protection on it?
If you like my post, or solution to your issue/question, go ahead and click on the little star by my name and/or accept the post as the Solution. It makes me happy.
I'm NOT an employee of Best Buy, or Geek Squad, though I did work as an Agent for a year 5 years ago. None of my posts are to be taken as the official stance that Best Buy will take on your situation. My advice is just that, advice.
Unfortunately, that's the bad luck of any electronic, there's going to be bad Apples... wait that's a horrible pun.

TS3474 my i pod is still on a white screen after restoring with the two buttons and also restoring on i tunes and it still has a white screen

my i pod is still on a white screen after restoring with the two buttons and also restoring on i tunes and it still has a white screen

I've been struggling with mine all morning with the same issue.
Mine would not wake up from sleep (will just white screen).
It will boot using a hard reset (i.e. the power button and volume down button being held down for 8 or so secs). I restored and synced it multiple times but it still has a problem waking up and just just goes to white screen.
I saw a post suggesting a loose connection which I had my doubts about (as it will wake with hard reset) - bit BINGO! If I wake mine (with index finger) whilst applying pressure to the top of the screen area (with my thumbs) it will wake up. When I become frustrated enough I'll take it apart and see if something has become loose.
Hope this helps.

When we turn on a Macbook 2004 it only has a white screen. Is there a way to get it to boot?

We were trying to copy a family DVD using Disk utility. We ejected the disk that was in the computer (the DVD player was working) and put in the new disk. It would not read the disk. It would not eject the disk. When we restarted the computer, we got the tone, but it would not boot and there is a blank white screen. Any suggestions?

''but it was in my window as I scrolled through my emails''
What does this mean?
''my virus scanner caught it''
Your 'virus scanner' is not supposed to scan your Thunderbird profile folder in the first place.
''I deleted it''
Not a smart move. With the profile you also deleted all your mail and accounts.
''I deleted it, because I could not disinfect or quarantine it''
There is no need for this. A malicious attachment won't do any harm to your computer as long as you're not trying to open or run it.
''I am not sure what to do''
Do you still have the deleted folder in Trash? You can try to login to your account via webmail, and check if there are still any messages on the server.
For the future, create backups of your profile folder on a regular basis.
