HELP!! My ipod has a blank screen

I updated my software (ios 6.1.3) for the first time when my son was on it. I gave it him when I said wait its updating but he's only 7 so he told me it wouldn't load so he'd turned it off and came with a blank screen also it won't connect to iTunes HELP!!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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 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 has a blank screen and the computer won't see it

    Ok, I have an ipod video that I just got from the apple repair shop about a week ago, and it's not working at all. I'm pretty sure I got a virus on it from a song, but I can't do anythign because the computer won't read it. It's had plenty of charge, I had it plugged into the wall for hours and then plugged it into my computer and it doesn't even read it, and when it's plugged in I can't even open iTunes. Anyone else having this problem?

    hmmm. it might be worth checking through the following document:

  • IPod has a blank screen and won't do anything?

    I took out my iPod 5th gen to check the time and it was fine. Then I took it out 5 minutes later and it had a black screen so i clicked the home button. Nothing happened. I've tried the power button, the home button, holding down the power button, and plugging it into a charger and nothing has helped. It's still on a black screen and won't respond to anything I do. What should I do?

  • My 3rd generation ipod got a blank screen

    my 3rd generation ipod has a blank screen

    i think ipods are generally set to enable disc mode, so you can use it as a storage device, by default (if yours isnt, plug your ipod in, and go into options to select enable disc mode). just connect the ipod with whatever cord it came with to your computer, then look into the m.. is it called "my harddrive" or "harddrive"? and you should see the ipod connected there on the left side of the window with "network" and "music" etc. if you click on the ipod icon, you can drag and drop files into your ipod just as you would any other folder and use it as a harddrive.
    the tricky thing is using it for both pc and mac. i think if its formatted for a pc, you can use it on both macs and pcs. but if you have it formatted for a mac, then only macs can read it.
    so if you want to use it on your friends pc as well, format your ipod on a pc first so you can use it on both platforms.

  • My iPod has a white screen.  After holding down the middle and the menu button it goes black, then back white, and then beeps twice but stays white.  It never shows the apple logo, just stays white - help!

    My iPod has a white screen.  After holding down the middle and menu button, the screen goes black then back to white and beeps twice.  I have returned to original settings and resorted content to no avail.  I still have a white screen.  I have plugged it up and tried resetting again and again, still a white screen with two beeps - help.

    I have the same exact issue. Fifth generation iPod Nano, blank screen, Restore had no effect. I'm running Windows 7 Home, with all software up-to-date. I suspect hardware damage. Any clarification would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.
