I tried to restore my ipod touch and the screen turned white....it wont turn off either...what can i do to fix it??

It isnt working...it is a 4th generation and all it has is ablank screen..plz help!!!!

Hi hellomynameisbrooke,
Try rebooting the iPod by pressing and holding the on/off and home buttons simultaneously until the screen goes blank and you see the apple logo. It should take about 10-15 seconds to reboot.
If that doesn't work, connect it to your computer and try restoring it via iTunes.
Hope this helps!
Cheers,
GB

  • My daughter tried to open a game on her Ipod touch and the screen went white and I can't get it to do ANYTHING...I've tried holding the sleep/wake button and it does NOTHING, still only a white screen.

    My daughter tried to play the My Horse game on her Ipod touch that she got for Christmas and when she opened the game it said something about sending "push notifications" and gave the choice of "don't allow" or "ok"...we chose "don't allow". After that the screen went white and now we cannot get the Ipod touch to respond to anything. I tried holding the sleep/wake button to try to restart it and it doesn't seem to work. Any suggestions to get this device working again???

    Try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If that doesn't work, try a Restore:
    From iTunes, select the iPad 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.
    There's more that you can do.  Post back if none of the above solves the problem.
    By the way, I always allow "push."  That allows the app developer to "push" information to your device rather than waiting for you to ask for it.  However, "don't allow" shouldn't cause the problem that you're experiencing.

  • I have an iPod Touch and the screen broke it still works im wondering if apple can fix that

  • I have just tried to update my ipod touch and the update failed but it has locked my ipod.  All I get is a picture of the itunes logo and the usb lead

    I have just tried to update my ipod touch and the update failed but it has locked my ipod.  All I get is a picture of the itunes logo and the usb lead.  I am unable to get the ipod to move and I don't know what to do.  I think I should be recompenced by Apple if I have to pay to get it fixed!

    The logo is saying connect it to your computer with iTunes installed on the computer.  I assume when yo do this that the iPod is not seen in iTunes. to make iTunes appear try:
    - Resetting the iPod:
    Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Place the iPod in recovery mode.  See:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    - Place the iPod in DFU mode:
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    If the iPod appears in iTunes restore the iPOd.  If not I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • The other day I dropped my iPod touch and the screen cracked and my warranty is up how do i get it fixed. Do I order an screen and have Apple repair it of do I have to

    The other day I dropped my ipod touch and the screen cracked and my warranty is up how do I get it fixed. Do I buy a screen and bring it to Apple to repair od do I have to repair it. Please help me

    Apple does not repair iPods, but will replace the entire iPod for a flat fee; see the Repair Pricing section here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/faq/
    There are independent iPod repair services that may be able to replace the screen for less. Do a web search for "ipod repair". Some places also will sell parts and instructions for doing the repair yourself, but the connectors and parts are delicate and it's easy to cause further damage, so attempt this only if you are confident in your skills.
    Regards.

    Try a Restart and a Reset...
    Restarting your device
    1)   Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    2)   Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Follow these steps to reset your device
    Note: Reset your device only if it is no longer responding and the steps above do not work.

  • I have an ipod touch with ios 5.1.1 that wont connect to wifi. what can i do?

    have an ipod touch with ios 5.1.1 that wont connect to wifi. what can i do? Ive done a restore, recovery, and still wont connect.

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    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. Not clear if you did this type of restore
    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.

    It means you should take it to the Genius Bar. You will no doubt need to buy an out of warranty replacement.

  • HT1414 I'm trying to restore my ipod touch but the restore box doesn't come up on itunes. Nothing appears for me to click restore. Please help

    My Ipod touch is disabled but I know how to put it in dfu mode(I think that's correct)...but when I log into itunes the restore box does not appear.
    What am I doing wrong? How do I restore my ipod touch on itunes when the restore box does not come up?

    Try Recovery Mode and restore via iTunes.
    iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    If not successful, try DFU mode.

    Next would be to try on another computer  to help determine if you have an iPod or computer problem.

  • Since updating my iPhone 4 my phone is really slow and the screen doesn't rotate to play games. What can I do?

    Since updating to the 7.0.3 my screen won't rotate to play games and it takes seconds for my words to show up after typing them. Also facebook lags really bad. What can I do to fix this?

    That would depend if you have the potrait orientation lock - on.
    If you see a lock icon with an arrow around it on top of the home screen next to your battery then that means you have it enabled.
    to disable swipe up from the bottom of the phone (near home button) to access the control center, hit that icon.

  • I dropped my iPod touch and the screen cracked. Can I get it repaired?

    Today I dropped my iPod.  Then realized the screen cracked.  So. Is there any way to get it repaired or back? my mom didn't pay the insurance and she bought my iPod touch (the new one with both cameras) at best buy. But can apple store
    Still fix it if my iPod touch is bought from best buy and no insurance? I'm really upset. I need help. :(

    You  can try taking it back to best buy and see what they'll do. The apple store policy is that accidental damage isn't covered by the warranty, and dropping it counts as accidental damage.
