Freezing, Restarting And White Screen

*Freezing, Restarting And White Screen:*
All these things happen at any time what
ever I do. I've restored my a million times
and nothing seems to work.
SPECS:
2nd Generation
iPod Touch
OS 4.1
Please Help ):

Welcome to the discussions,
did you already delete the ipsw software file on your computer to make iTunes download a new copy from the Apple server to restore your firmware from?
Also try to restore without using the existing backup, it might contain damaged files causing the behavior of your ipod.
iwps files are stored here:
XP: C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates
7 and Vista: C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPod Software Updates

    Sounds like hardware failure, called boot loop. Call Apple and or go on apple.com and make Genius Bar appointment to have your iphone reviewed by a Tech. Provided you iphone shows no physical or liquid damage they will take care of you, or if you have Apple Care Plus

    I think we need more clarification.
    What do you mean by "download"? Only updates are available as downloads, the System software has to be installed from a DVD.

  • My iPod Touch 4g keeps rebooting. ( sometimes it freezes on the white screen; sometimes on the Apple symbol) What should I do to make it stop? My iPod's warranty has expired. It happens every 10-15 minutes. Help!

    My iPod Touch 4g keeps rebooting. ( sometimes it freezes on the white screen; sometimes on the Apple symbol) What should I do to make it stop? My iPod's warranty has expired. It happens every 10-15 minutes. Help!

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • Black and White Screen

    My Iphone 4 has been shutting down to a black dos like screen with White letters.
    Debugger messag: panic\
    OS Version: not yet set
    Kernel Version: Darwin Kernel Version 13.0 Sunday August 19
    I b
    boot version: i Bott-1537.4.18
    panic: we are hanging here...
    This has been going on since I've tried to upgrade OS6.  It would go to this black screen but eventually come back on with a drained battery.
    ITunes error showed to restore phone back to factory settings so I did but it only worked for 4 days.  Now it's been down for at least 15 hours.
    Any one see this issue before?

    Thank you.  There is not an apple store near by.  I need my phone for work.  My warranty has expired and 13 month into contract is too early for the 18 month early upgrade.  I reset the device and plugged it in to Itunes and restored it again.  The part that confuses me and perhaps why i didn't work last time is...Restore to new phone or Restore to my iphone back up so I always choose my phone but perhaps this doesn't bring it back to factory settings.  I just don't want to loose my contacts.  It is working now but it's probably just a matter of time before it the black and white screen come back up.  I think it;s a system update issue.  I'm going to call Apple.

    That is a baseband error. Has your phone ever been illegitimately unlocked? If so, that problem happens. If you haven't jailbroken/unlocked, visit your local Genius Bar.

    imy phone is automatically restarting and the screen is turning blue what can i do to make it ok again??

    Hey babylovesyou,
    Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the iPhone shows a blue screen and is restarting on its own. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
    If your device gets stuck during startup
    When starting up, you might see the Apple logo or a red or blue screen for a long time, or your device might restart again. Try these steps:
    Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
    Put your device in recovery mode.
    When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a good one,
    Mario
