HOW TO FIX IPOD TOUCH IF YOU HAVE A PERMENT WHITE SCREEN!!!!

hold the power bottom and the home bottom then it will shut off after that just turn it back on ,then it should work it took me ages to find this out, it may take a minute or two to restart but you do not lose anything and all is good!

yes, that was a useless post, i have owned my touch now for 2 months and already have a white screen that will not go away. i have reset, restarted and restored and still the same thing. dock still plays music from it but it is nothing more than an oversized shuffle at this point. after talking to apple, the only current solution is to send it in to them or take it to an authorized dealer. not an option for me at this point in time though. Hats off to apple though, as i am a soldier currently deployed, they have agreed to send me a new touch in exchange for my currently dead new one. THANKS APPLE!!!!!!

  • If you lose your ipod touch and you have a warranty how much would you have to pay to get a new one?

    if you lose your ipod touch and you have a warranty how much would you have to pay to get a new one?

    Full price. Warranty covers only manufacturing defects, not you losing the iPod.
    Perhaps homeowners insurance of your credit card plan, if you used a credit card to purchase the original iPod, might cover all or part of the cost.

  • How to fix ipod touch 4g home button(jammed)

    How to fix ipod touch 4g home button(jammed)?

    Hey! So I found out this free way to be able to use the home button with no cost! It won't unjam it, but using this method you will have a touchscreen homebutton.
    Directions:
    1. Go to Settings
    2. Go to General
    3. Scroll down and go to Accessibility
    4. Scroll down and go to Assistive Touch
    5. Then turn assistive touch on.
    What you will see is a little white circle on the screen. When you tap this circle you have the Home button option(which functions all the ways of your jammed home button). As well as a few other options; Device, Favorites and Gestures. You can move that circle about the screen for your convenience. This is just a way to have a home button without paying to restore.

  • I have and ipod touch 4th gen that has the white screen of death but my home button doesnt work. how do i reset it?

    i have and ipod touch 4th gen that has the white screen of death but my home button doesnt work. how do i reset it?

    Restore, if iTunes will let you.  Everything except the password will be restored.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  Be forewarned that it takes a long time.  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.

  • Does any one know how to unlock the touch if you have forgotten the passcode?

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

  • My ipod touch 4th gen. is stuck on white screen of death.

    I recentally had dropped my ipod touch and when i picked it up it was stuck on the white screen of death. I tried to hard restart by holding down the power and home button at the same time, but the screen would only turn off then come right back on. Then i let the power drain. After it would no longer turn on i put it on the charger to find that the white screen would pop right back up. I didnt want to restore it but because its my only option i put it on my compute but itunes couldnt acess it because i had a passcode on it. is there a differnt way to restore it or fix it?  HELLLPPP MEEEE!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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 to fix ipod touch?

    I have a 4th generation ipod touch which was jailbroken and was running on the 4.3.3 update. I went to try and restore and update it to the newest update out and it stuck me in recovery mode and I can't get out of it. I have already looked up different ways and none of them worked. the only screen I can see is the usb cord with an arrow pointing toward the itunes symbol. I have tried to put it in DFU mode and that doesn't work. when I plug it into the computer, It only gives me the option to restore and update it. When I click on that it says its restoring it for about half an hour then it pops up with an error and says it can't restore it. Any ideas how to fix this so I can use it again?

    Do you get an error number?
    We can't really provide you help here as you voided your warranty when you did the jailbreak. Google the error number you are getting or use one of the forums for whichever jailbreak you used.
