i need some help i have a 3G ipod touch the power button doesnt work at all but i got home and my screen is just plain white how do i fix this
Let the battery fully drain. After charging for an hour try a reset (may not work).
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Then connect to your comnputer and try to restore.
- If the screen is still white then it appears yu have a hardware problem and appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. -

My ipod has a white screen and the home button doesnt work
my ipod has a white screen and my home button doesnt work so how can i fix it?
Try as best you can:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
When it says place the iPod in recovery mode use this program
RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into 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.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

HT1320 What can be done if the restore does not work?
My iPod is a 30GB my OS is MAC OS X version 10.5.7. When the iPod is connected to the MAC the display on it
He iPod shows a folder which is not accessible and www.apple.com/support/iPod. That's all I get. The iPod simply just stopped working one day while in the middle of playing songs.If Restore is complete, without any error, and you still get the folder icon.
Do the iPod Disk Diagnostic as posted earlier by tt2, it wont fix your problem but helps in troubleshooting. -
So, my Iphone 4 now has a black screen. Before it did this I unlocked the screen (which has a passcode) try to open instagram and the screen flashed and went black. I can make calls and it seems to send messages but I dont know for sure because the screen is black. The power button (sleep) does not work and when I try to reset the phone it makes a call. I never synced it to a computer or Itunes and I didnt start photo stream. I want to preserve the pictures because it has photos of family members that have passed. Is there a way to get the photos?? Help please!
If you have attempted the reset, which is holding the home button and sleep/wake button, was it still connected to the computer? Have you tried to do that when not connected. You stated it never came on, how long did you hold the buttons together? If you cannot get it to connect to iTunes then you would not be able to restore the device. You can see if you can put the device into Recovery Mode by following the instructions in this support document. If that does not work, then you are correct, make an appointment at the Apple Store. If you can't update or restore your iOS device

My i phone wont turn on and i cant restart it because the home button doesnt work
m
What happens if you plug the device into the charger? Does it start? Without a functioning home button, it is impossible to do a reset on the device, which would help it recover from not starting. What model iPhone are you using? Have you thought about getting the home button fixed?

What should i do?
Make an appointment at an Apple store, 'cause you won't be able to use recovery mode to restore your phone, with a broken sleep/wake button. They will offer you an out of warranty replacement, cost is US $149.

I recently broke my lock button when it dropped, and wont work again, also i shattered my screen a while back, but it didnt bother me. Now that i want to get the button fixed, will the apple store only fix the button, or the whole phone. I still have 2 weeks of warranty left so it's not like they'd fix one thing and not the other when either way they'll both be free ya know?
They will not give you anything.
They wil either return the device as is or replace it at the out of warranty replacement cost.
