How can I fix a frozen iPod touch 4th generation?

I tried to put my pass code in and it frozen and wouldn't unlock.  The screen then went to the apple logo screen for five minutes.  From the apple logo screen then went to a white screen with colorful vertical lines on the screen.  It's now been on this last screen for thirty minutes.  I don't really want to replace it or bring it to an apple store because the nearest store is over two hours away.  I've tried to press the power and home button and I've held the power button down for five minutes with no results. 

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.

  • How can i recover my lost ipod touch 4th generation even if the battery is dead?

    It has been almost a month now that ive lost my ipod touch 4th generation, ive looked everywhere and cant seem to find if, i dont have the serial number, and when i go into the locate my iphone on the apple store, it doesnt work because my batery is dead, and if noone ever finds it, he cant conect it to power suply and conect it to the internet...

    Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod.  If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number).  If any passwords are associated with a bank or any other savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
    The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief.  All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
    The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself.  This requires action before the device is lost/stolen.  If the device has significant personal information, it should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

  • How do I fix updates in iPod Touch 4th generation?

    I know I cannot update my iPod Touch to iOS 7.
    The App Store icon shows that there are three updates available, but when I go to the update page there are none shown. If I look at all updates I notice there are three apps in the list that show as needing an update. When I click on any of these apps I get a popup screen that tells me the update doesn't apply to version 6.1.3.
    I'm fine with that, but I would like to see the updates not show up on the App Store icon if they cannot be installed in 6.1.3.
    Is Apple trying to tell me I should retire my three-year-old iPod Touch?
    Bill

    That's because there is a bug in iOS 6.1.3 that puts the notification badge on the App Store icon when there is an update available even if that update is only compatible with iOS 7.  Therefore, you don't see the app under Updates because it is not compatible with your iOS version, but the bug still causes the notification badge.  If you leave it on the Updates page for a little while, the badge will go away.  But it will reappear after a few hours
    The only thing to do is to report it as a bug to Apple using http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html .  Maybe if enough of us do this, they will fix it.

  • How do I find out my iPod touch 4th generation warranty information

    I dropped my iPod touch 4th generation on the tar and cracked the screen. I am unaware if you need your warranty information to get it repaired. This is the first time it has ever Borlaug in the time frame of the warranty. If I do need it how do I find it, I have been on the site for about two hours and it is not telling me how to.

    A broken screen is not covered by the warranty.  Here is a list of out-of-warranty replacement pricing: http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/ You do not need any information to get this price.

  • Can you hook up your iPod Touch 4th generation with an HDMI cable to your HDTV and play videos from your iPod to the TV?

    I'm trying to find out if I can hook up my iPod touch 4th gen. iOS 5.0.1 to my HDTV with an HDMI cable and have it mirror what I do on the iPod Touch like mirroring videos for example. I need to find out and if so, how?

    You can only output content to your TV if the App you are using supports the TV Out functionality. Mirroring is not supported on the iPod Touch.
    If you still want to output content from your iPod to your TV, make sure you have the right cables as described here.

  • How can I fix my 4G iPod Touch? Bricked, very bad.

    I took the iPod Touch 4G apart to change the LCD and Digitizer, I carefully did it, and put the new screen on, but then I got the,"White screen of Death". I didn't worry too much, and did a hard reset, now the iPod won't respond at all, I've tried putting it in DFU, doing another hard reset, I think of I've done it all. The screen doesn't cpleome on, and the iPod wont even make the charge sound when I plug it in.  My computer won't even recognize the iPod as being in DFU or anything.  It was working before I changed the screen, and after as well. After I  did the hard reset it stopped working all together. No dummies saying,"  Buy a new one.." Or,"Take it to Apple" for easy points. Is there any thing else I can do, or even, what caused this? And is there a fix? Thanks.

    I would say the problem is self-inflicted.
