8gig ipod touch screen not lighting up can see if look closely but cant slide the unlock or anything either will not show up in my itunes either

ok so i turned on my ipod but the screen stays dark if look closely at an angle you can see the screen but doesnt light up
cannot slide the unlock slide to unlock and when plug in it doesnt come up in itunes
and help would be greatly appreciated

Try:
- A reset. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
- Restore the iPod from backup
- Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod
If you still have a problem then it is likely a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    - 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.

  • My ipod screen does not light, I can see the icons, connects to itunes but it does not even light up the brightness of the screen. I made it the restoration of production and did not work.

    Please I need to know what do I have to do.

    If you can't enter the passcode then you have to place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore the iPod via iTunes. For ecovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    Note that this requires using the sleep/wake button.  If you are not successful then there is nothing else that I know you can do.

  • I have just purchased a lightning to 30 pin adaptor to use on an iPad mini and a gen5 iPod touch both devices are running iOS 8.1.3 and come up with The error message "this accessory is not supported by this device "

    I have just purchased a lightning to 30 pin adaptor to use on an iPad mini and a gen5 iPod touch both devices are running iOS 8.1.3 and come up with The error message "this accessory is not supported by this device "
    THis is means they are not charging on a 30 pin cable and the touch won't work in my Apple iPod dock - no audio out or charge. Have re powered both devices to no avail am wondering if the iOS version is the problem
    Help!

    If it is a lightning to 30 pin adaptor, and you have a 7th Generation Nano it has to fit the Nano.
    This is lightning to 30 pin adapter: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Apple%26%23174%3B---Lightning-to-30-Pin-Adapter/6651 936.p?id=1218803450821&skuId=6651936#tab=overview
    Is this what you bought?
    You need to contact Sony and see if they model you have is compatible with the docking adapter. It may not be.

  • The unlocked IPhone 4S models will not be available until November, Why is that? Why would Apple do that? I should be able to buy a factory unlocked Apple iPhone 4S when it comes out! Why is my interests being put last and Sprint, Verizon

    The unlocked IPhone 4S models will not be available until November, Why is that? Why would Apple do that? I should be able to buy a factory unlocked Apple iPhone 4S when it comes out! I travel all over the world, and so that is why I need one like that. It is unfair to the consumer, and frankly turning away customers like myself willing to pay high dollar to Apple for their product, who can I speak with to complain about this, because I know their are factory unlocked iPhone 4S' sitting in a warehouse somewhere just waiting to be shipped, and I want one.  I know why, cause Apple signed contracts with each carrier so the carrier could increase their sales making customers sign 2 year contracts, I get it, I own my own business, but the delay of releasing factory unlocked ones is just not right and I should be able to buy one without having to buy it over in the UK where it is unlocked when it comes out right away, I should be able to buy it in my own country!  These business practices we practice in the US need to stop, their is a demand that needs to be met with consumers like myself who don't need subsidized iPhone's with 2 year contracts with carriers and don't mine paying full price for an unlocked one, it is unethical in a sense, forcing the customer to buy it with a carrier contract and NOT giving the customer the option to buy it full price and own it themselves, OR, making the consumer wait a month for that option to be available.  THEY SHOULD BE RELEASED AT THE SAME TIME!!!!!!  THAT IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO!!!!!!
    Apple can contact me and I will proudly pay for one.  But making me wait a month for an unlocked one, puts AT&T, Sprint & Verizon's interests before mine, and that is not right, for it is MY money that keeps you guys in business, so my best interests should come first!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I understand your frustration, but when any form of rationing is required you have to prioritise. The number of unlocked vs packaged phones will be quite small and the number of unlocked buyers wishing to upgrade immediately will be smaller still. Against this you have the corporations sharing $billions between them.
    It would, you're correct, have been fairer to release all at the same time, but fairer doesn't come into it: it's business.

  • My ipod touch screen reacts sporadically, how can I fix this?

    Hi my ipod touch screen works sporatically.  It reacts spacticaly. When I use the keypad it will slowly react and get the letter and sometimes puts in the letter several times. I barely touch it and it reacts and then other times I have to wait seconds until it will react.  What can I do to fix this?

    Periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory.

  • My iPod Touch screen is so sensative that when I have my finger right above the screen, not touching it, it will open the app or click on the letters on the keyboard that I have not touched.  How to stop this?

    All of a sudden my iPod Touch 4 Gen (got for Christmas in 2012) has started behaving strangely.  When I go to type on the virtual keyboard I don't even have to touch the screen and the iTouch starts acting as if it's possessed and will start typing those letters that I'm hovering my finger over ... and it's usually not the letter I want.  Has anyone ever had this happen?  It's very frustrating.

    First make sure your fingers and screen are clean. After that all yo can do is:
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • My ipod touch screen is faulty what can i do?

    I cannot find my receipt, but ive had my ipod for 1 year,what can I do?
    I spent $300 to buy it, and Inever expected the screen to go all fuzy. I am rather dissapointed apple!

    If the screen is faulty because of a defect and not because of abuse like dropping the iPod and breaking the screen, Apple will exchange it at no cost if still under warranty. To check you warranty enter the iPod's SN here:
    Apple - Support - Check Your Service and Support Coverage
    Otherwise
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

    Return it to the vendor and get your money back. Go buy a different model elsewhere or from the same vendor.

  • I can see my external harddrive but cant access it.

    I have a macbook pro, and a 1.5TB external hard drive. It works fine on my pro, but when I try and put it into a friends macbook pro i cant seem to access any of the files. It comes up on the desktop, and I can see the 4 folders inside it, but I cant open them or anything like that.
    We have very similar computers (I'm not sure of the specifics but they are both pros) and mine doesnt have any problems with it.
    Can anybody help?

    Hi Taylor
    The format is Windows NT File System (NTFS).
    To be more specific, I want to put some of his albums onto the HD and then put them back onto my computer. When I try to move something it says... "XYZ could not be moved because "External 1.5Tb Cannot be Modified."
    Hope this helps a little.
    Thanks.
