I got my TOUCH replaced yesterday & I noticed a air bubble or lint cought under my film shild. Would you suggest in taking it off my self or having Apple doing it?
'film shield'? is that something you've put on it yourself? if it is, I would remove it and either re-apply or leave it without (i messed up putting my screen protector on when i got it, loads of air bubbles, i just took it off and left it, a year later and my ipod is still fine). i dont think apple will do anything with something you have done yourseld.
xkyesis.
if it's still under warranty then apple should look at it and fix it without charge.

  • How to clean the dust inside the screen of the iPod Touch?

    Hi everybody,
    lately some dust entered inside the screen of my iPod Touch.
    At first it looked like one or two pixels were gone bad, but it is just some annoying dust.
    The problem is that I cannot figure out any way to remove it.
    I tried a gentle blow from the connector hole but the result was worse.
    Any idea on how to clean the screen inside?
    I hope it is not necessary to go to an Apple Center and pay for the "cleaning service".
    Regards,
    Andrea

    It sounds safe to use
    'Falcon's® "Professional" Dust-Off® "XL" compressed-gas is the perfect product for removing dust from your color transparencies before making scans or copy slides; it's also great for removing dust from cameras, lenses, computers and other electronic equipment. Each 12 oz. disposable can comes with its own trigger value and a 4.75" nozzle extension (a red tube) that allows you to place precise bursts of compressed air just where you want it.'
    Check the directions on the back... also check the contents. Normally anything like that will inform you of contaminants harmful to delicate electrical devices.
    If its just compressed air make sure you keep the can well back from the source.. and unplug the G5 (take it somewhere you don't mind dust.. there no point doing this in situe, just for it to suck it back in again!)
    Also.. as mentioned.. keep the can upright (as the air is decompressed the can gets very cold)

    take it to an apple store or call 1-800-APL-CARE and they will let you know the screen repair options they have. It might cost a bit if the screen break was your fault (aka you dropped it).

  • The screen on my ipod touch is stuck zoomed in. I turned it off and back and its still stuck zoomed in. I also tried to reset it and that didn't work either. Please help.

    The screen on my ipod touch is stuck zoomed in. I don't know how it happened I just looked down and it was like that. I have turned it off and back and even reset it but it still keeps zooming back in each time I turn it on. I can't unlock it because I can't see the numbers and it won't let me move around the screen. Please help.

    This is asked and answered often.  The foru search bar is on the right side of this page.

    2. Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to turn off.
    3.While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears, release the Home button. iTunes should alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then click Restore to restore the device.
    Note: Data will be lost. You may have to repeat the above many times.

  • I got my screen fixed and the day i got my ipod touch 4th gen back the wifi doesnt work unless i hold it right up to my router. Roughly every foot I move back it loses a bar and if i leave the room it doesn't even have a signal completely.

    I got my screen fixed and the day i got my ipod touch 4th gen back the wifi doesnt work unless i hold it right up to my router. Roughly every foot I move back it loses a bar and if i leave the room it doesn't even have a signal completely. Could the screen replacement have tampered with the wifi capability? Also if it helps I switched internet providers and during the time when my ipod was being fixed a new router was installed and it doesnt seem to work unless directly infront of my ipod.

    Take it back to where you had the screen replaced. They messed up the connection to the wifi antenna

    If you successfully restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem. Could be the screen or something else.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

    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.
