Blank screen, how do i fix it?

My ipod touch has a kind of lit up blank screen, it wont switch off or lock but if i press the volume buttons the box comes up on the screen but nothing else does..... theres no sound and no other pictures..... How do i fix it?????

Do a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears.  Also, make sure it is plugged into an electrical outlet so it is on the charger.

  • I tried updating my macbook software and now I have a black blank screen, how do i fix this?

    I was updating my computer and after the restart my computer had a complete black and blank page. I know that it is on because I was able to take a CD out but I just cannot see anything. PLEASE HELP!

    What were you upgrading? I mean was this a new OS like Mavericks or just some application upgrade?
    Try restarting the machine and holding down the Command and R keys. Does it boot to the Recovery partition and can you see it? That at least tells if this is a hardware problem.

    Quit the app and restart the iPad.
    In order to quit or close apps - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Try the videos app again.

    I have had about 9 iOS devices at work do this. 
    The fix and it will wipe out anything on your iphone is to connect it to your computer and have the latest version on iTunes open.  Hold the Power/Sleep and Home button till it blanks out.  Keep holding the home button untill it says recovery mode on the screen of the computer and do a restore.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • TS3274 i dropped my ipad and now i have a "green screen" how do i fix this?

    i dropped my ipad and now i have a "green screen" how do i fix this?

    If it's an iPad 2, it's old enough to be out of warranty. Courcoul's suggestion to trade it in for a new one is ok if you are in the market. If not and you want to take a risk - and possibly a big one at that - others have reported a pretty extreme solution to this problem. Slap it on the back.
    I know, I know. It's sounds crazy, but there are several threads here claiming it works.
    Here is just one of them. You can do a search to find others.
