Can I fix the screen on my iPod touch 4th gen?

The screen is basically spiderwebbed and I know that you can affordability replace yourself or get an expert to replace the screens on second and third gens. But can it be done with a 4th gen. and if so how much would it cost?

- To fix yourself see:
iPod Touch Repair – iFixit
It says where to get parts.
- Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $99, $149 or $199 depending upon the capacity.
- A third-party place may be less expensive. Here is one, Google for more.

  • I broke the screen on my ipod touch 4th gen and im trying to do a backup on the data but it says i need to enter a passcode on my ipod but the screen dosent work so what can i do

    hey i broke the screen on my ipod touch 4th Gen and im trying to do a backup on the data but it says I need to enter a passcode on my ipod but the screen dosent work so what can I do.

    You can't backup the iPod t iTunes then. You will have to use an existing iTunes backup.
    If iCloud backup is turned on and the iPod is still working (not disabled), the iPod will automatically backup daily if an internet connection is available and the iPod is connected to a charging source.

  • Can i get a free replacement for the screen of my ipod touch 4th gen if i go to apple store even though i bought my ipod in futureshop?

    I just drop my ipod touch 4th gen and the screen was crashed.. I am wondering if a get a free replacement in the apple store even though i bought my ipod in futureshop?

    Dropping your iPod s not coverd by the warranty. You'll have to pay for the refurbished device:
    Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
    Apple - Support - Service Answer Center
    Out-of-Warranty Service: If your iPod requires service for any other hardware failure that is determined by Apple to be repairable, Apple will service your iPod for the Out-of-Warranty Repair Service fee.
    If you want to set up your iPod for the Out-of-warranty service, we recommend that you take your iPod to a local Apple Retail Store. Alternatively, you can contact Apple Technical Support.

  • Will Apple still replace the screen on my iPod Touch 4th gen.?

    I dropped my iPod and completely cracked the whole front of my iPod. I got it a Target a month ago and I lost my receipt. Will Apple still replace it?

    @lllaass I just cracked the screen on my Ipod touch 8gb 4th gen which i just bought wednesday from Target. However, I have one of those military grade portective films over it. Was that supposed to protect it? Not sure, but I also have another issue. I live an hour away from the nearest apple store and I don't want to make an appointment at the Genius bar and still have to pay. Should I just take my chances and schedule one? Or are there other places that might be able to replace it for cheaper? 

  • I shattered the screen on my iPod touch 4th gen. Can I get it replaced and what is the price?

    The screen is completely shattered. I was told that Apple will replace/repair for free. Does anyone know if this is true?

    Unless you purchased the optional AppleCare+ warranty,
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for a n64 GB 4G and $99 for the others. They do not fix yours.

  • Line on the screen of my ipod touch 4th gen. Starts left of the screen as a blue (bright backgr) or red (dark backgr) line becoming white halfway and going across screen. Any ideas/solutions?

    I have an irritating line on the screen of my 4th gen ipod touch going left to right. It starts out as a blue line (with bright backgroung) or red line (with dark background). Switching backrounds will also switch the color of the line. Sometimes it stops halfway the screen. Sometimes the blue/red line becomes white somewhere halfway the screen and continuing as a white line to the other side of the screen. It mostly starts out as a normal screen and when using the blue/red line appears and when using some more the white part appears.Mostly in the beginning the line starts flickering and becomes more steady after a while.
    I have searched on the internet but can only find info on some pixels acting weird (stuck/frozen/dead pixels). This is a whole line of pixels not doing what they are supposed to do.
    Anyone an idea what this could be and how to solve it?
    Thanks,

    Did you ever fix this? My daughters is the same. Treated with tender loving care, we reset to factory and it disappeared but was back again after 2 or 3 days. Still in warranty so going to take to the genius bar, however a bit concerned that because it belongs to an 11 year old they are going to assume she's damaged it.

  • HT1414 the white screen on my ipod touch 4th gen is white with some skiny colored lines can someone help

    the white screen on my ipod touch 4th gen is white with some skiny colored lines can someone help please

    - Try:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try again.
    - If still not successful time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • How can I install iOS 7 on my iPod touch 4th gen?

    How can I install iOS 7 on my iPod touch 4th gen?

    You can't
    . As Apple said in June, iOS 7 is not compatible with the 4G iPod.
    All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory (RAM). The 4G iPod only has 256 MB

  • Can't connect to the internet with my iPod touch 4th gen.

    So I have an iPod touch 4th gen. and have been able to get wifi from my computer with no problem but now it's not working. When I choose the network I've always used I see the 3 lines on top of the screen that show when it's connected to the internet but when I try to open iTunes, the App Store, etc. it says, "cannot connect to iTunes" or whatever it is that I'm trying to open.
    I'm so frustrated! I already restarted both my iPod & laptop, connected then disconnected the modem, and resetted the network settings but it still doesn't work.
    When i open troubleshoot problems, it says that the wireless network connection doesn't have a valid IP configuration, sorry if I'm too stupid but what's an IP configuration? How can I fix this?
    Please help me!

    Does the iPod connect to other networks?
    Do other devices now connect? ( I thin yo are say no. In that case you have a router problem.  Try powering off and then back on the router. Next try changing the security on the router. Test it with no security. The reset ther router. Last, get a new router.)
    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.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

    If it is a 16 GB 5G it only has a front camera (FaceTime).

  • How much does it cost ; in the UK, to fix the LCD on an iPod Touch 4th generation 32gb.

    Basically if it is close to the price of a new one then I will just a new one. But because I'm short of money will it be cheap to repair it, or shall I might as well buy a new one. I also need an iPod Touch before February when I go to Italy. I also need to know if apple will fix it since my warranty ran out last week.

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. Scroll to find your country. It is about 1/2 the price of a new one.
