HT201406 Ipod has orange stripes down the screen. SICK OF THE BS.

So I literally feel like I am about to hurl out of frustration. My Ipod 4 maybe 5, or 6 I really dont know, has been fine for about a year. Then one day I turn it on, the screen becomes unresponsive within 5 seconds of use and there are very very faint orange stripes down the background of the screen. I will say that my annoying brothers of mine cracked the screen once about 8 months ago, but it has been working perfectly even since then until about a month ago. I have tried to restore through itunes because it is obviously impossible to do it on the ipod itself, but OF COURSE I cant even find the freaking summary button which apparently leads to restore on 11.3.1. I'm at wits-end with this thing, and am ready for it to be FIXED, NOT REPLACED. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE someone help me. Its IRRITATING and I am really just done with being frustrated.

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 another cable
- 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 as necessary:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
Or
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

My iPad has not been dropped or damaged at all. The screen is grey fuzzy and has coloured lines down the middle. iPad 3 also.

Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore.
Try all of these.
If these fail, then:

My iphone has blue lines down the screen

My iPhone 4 has blue lines down the screen which occasionally change colour. I've tried resetting it and restoring the settings but it is continuing to do this. please help....

To rule out a software issue, set it back to factory settings without using the latest backup.

If still lines on the screen, this is hardware related and the phone needs to be serviced:

Sounds like you have an Accessibility turn on. Like Assistive Touch or VoiceOver. Go to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn them off.

Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tends to indicate a problem with your network.
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

White stripe down MBA screen?

I sat down to update the MBA to 10.5.6 yesterday and rebooted before I started (never hurts) - while on some of the splash screens (before login) there appeared a flickering white stripe down the display about an inch wide, just to the left of center. Looked to me like a set of vertical pixel drivers stuck in the ON state. Went away before the login, and didn't come back during the update, but happened again in the auto reboot after the update.
I tried searching the forum, but didn't see anything like this, although there were some posts about thin white stripes. Am I having a unique problem, or is this something already known about? I'm sure I would have heard from my wife, the normal user, if that had happened during regular use, so maybe it's a boot up issue?
Thanks!

It show the uniformity of the display best if the display is showing with 50% gray. If you have a faint stripe on the display, it might show up. Just create a jpeg file that only contains 50% gray, and use preview to do a slideshow at full screen. If you can't see anything, your MBA should be fine.

What is the longest you have waited before find my ipod has located it on the map?

What is the longest you have waited before the find my ipod has located it on the map?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Generally it's less than a minute, however when the device can't be located (maybe its on a train in a tunnel, or it's turned off), it can be any length of time.

How can I stop the loading of "Getting Started with Mozilla Firefox?", which has greatly slowed down the startup of Firefox.

Firefox used to start up fairly quickly, but now it loads an additional more complicated tab, which has greatly slowed down the start up process. How can I eliminate the loading of this time waster?

See these articles for some suggestions:

I just got an iphone 4 yesterday. I got everything all set up and working great. When I woke up last this morning, my ipod has no sound and the albums covers are all mixed up. I've checked all my settings and volume control. My text sound won't work either. However, my ringtone works just fine.

Have you taken the steps recommended in the User Guide: restart, reset, restore?

Stripes down the center of pictures when I print them

When I print 4 pictures on a page, I get a stripe down the center of the bottom two pictures the material printed on the stripe is from the right hand side of the picture. One stripe (lower left picture) is 3/8" wide; the stripe on lower right is only 1/8" wide. This effectively ruins the print. It started about 3 weeks ago. Today I printed pictures again and it's still there. I just installed both black and colored ink.

Hi @teleklier , and welcome to the HP Forums!
I see you are having issues printing pictures. I'd like to help!
Does this issue occur when making a copy?
I'd recommend removing the ink cartridges, and performing a power reset. Disconnect the power cord from the printer and the power outlet, then wait 60 seconds. After 60 seconds, plug the printer back in. Ensure you plug the printer directly to a wall outlet. Make sure to bypass any sort of surge protector or power bar.
I would also suggest downloading and running the HP Print and Scan Doctor.
Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums!
