How to fix white screen on Model A1288 IPod touch 2nd generation
Checked email this morning. Battery super low so it shut off. I plugged it into my computer to recharge...it showed the little battery symbol with red lightning bolt as if it was starting to charge. Tried to turn it on a minute later (while charging) to see if I could still send an email and all I see is a white screen; no icons or anything else. HELP PLEASE ???
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.

Also
Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

How to fix white screen of death on iPod 4g after screen replacement?
How to fix white screen of death on iPod 4g after screen replacement?
I would try to reset it before anything else. To do this press and hold the home and power buttons until the the white screen shows the apple logo (~ 15 secs.).
If this does not work then more than likely the LCD is damaged.
btw- The white screen is common after repairs. The reset fix works 90% of the time.

HT4972 how do you update the ios on the ipod touch 2nd generation
Can someone show me how 2 update my ios
If it's running an iOS version prior to 4.2.1, it needs to be updated from iTunes on a computer. If it's running iOS 4.2.1, it can't be updated further.

My old laptop crashed. I bought a new one, but when I loaded itunes and plugged in my ipad 2, it only added the songs that were purchased in the itunes store. I upgraded my os to 5.0 and it deleted all of my songs, a lot of my apps, and all of my pictures except for the ones on the camera roll. I have these pictures and songs on my itouch 2nd generation but I can't get it to synch with the new computer. All of the solutions I have seen online don't work. I can't upgrade to the newest operating system because it is only 2nd generation. I tried turning on Home sharing and saving to the cloud, but I can't get it to work on the itouch. Please help!
I don't have a backup copy of my old computer. I bought an external hard drive and it said it backed up, but when I plugged it into my new computer, it was empty. My old computer is not accessible. Is there a way to get the music and pictures that are on my iphone and ipod onto my itunes account on the new computer? I have already lost them on my ipad.

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours. I say not worth it for a 2G
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following maybe less. Google for more. Again, likely not worth it for a 2G

Ipod Touch 2nd Generation Screen Cracked
My Ipod Touch 2nd Generation got a nice cracked in the screen. It still works fine the crack just bothers me. I have been reading up and i have heard alot of people took it into apple and the fixed or replaced it for free. I was just wondering if this is true. Or if there is another way to get it fixed without having to pay over 80 dollars. I don't want to try and repair it myself because I am not very confident in myself.

That looks like an acceptable screen. you want one that comes fully assembeled with a frame and home button. There's numerous how to videos on youtube. -
IPOD Touch 2nd Generation A1288 will not Restore/Reset
I have an iPOD Touch 2nd Generation A1288 that has gone into disabled mode. The Apple instructions for putting my device into recovery mode are not working and I have a new computer that has never connected/synced with this iPOD before :-( . iTunes just keeps telling me it can't connect to the ipod because I need to type my password into my ipod. IPOD screen still just says disabled. I have tried to get it into restore mode so many times that the "power off slider" won't appear on screen anymore when I hold down the sleep/wake button. The screen just goes black. When I press the home button the disabled screen pops up again. Do I need to take my iPOD to an apple store? The iPOD is named with my name and I have my ID to show the iPOD is mine so will they help me at the store? I have been researching for hours it seems and I just can't find further help on restoration/reset. Side note: was my daughters old iPOD and she does not remember what the password is. Ugh... teenagers! thanks ahead of time.
No reason for an Apple store visit. It not an ID problem at all
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
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.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
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. -
I have an Ipod touch 2nd generation 8gb. Metal peice fell out from the inside where the home button is and I lost it. Put the screen plug in and put the screen on and it would turn on but it won't unlock or respond to anything I try to do. PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Look her and it may give insite on what is missing. Otherwise:
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $99. Likely not worth it for a your iPod. They do not fix yours.

What exactly happens when you try to update the iPod? What does the error message say?
Also, are you sure yo have a 2G iPod?
See:
Identifying iPod models
I ask since a 1G can only go to iOS 2.x via iTunes and highest is 3.1.3 via
