Ipod frozen on a blank white screen

I have a 60 gig ipod video and when I turn it on it shows only a white screen. When I reset it, the white sreen comes on again. I've connected the ipod to my computer but itunes is not recognizing it. What does this mean?

Any help here?

    - Try a reset.
    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.
    - Connect to computer. If shows in iTunes restore
    - If still white, let battery fully drain. Charge for an hour and then try the above again.

  • Ipod 160 GB has blank white screen

    My 160 GB ipod has a blank white screen.  This happened simply by my plugging it in to my computer this morning to charge it.  I want to get it turned off so I can consider resetting it.

    Work through each of the recommend 5 R's of troubleshooting. If necessary, let the iPod's battery full drain first and then work through each one again as necessary.

    If they are unable to addresse the white screen issue, it's a good indicator of a hardware issue with the iPod's display or its display's connection to the logic board.

  • Ipod classic 80gb shows blank white screen

    I have an Ipod classic 80gb. I was having sync issues w/ itunes so I restored it using the itunes restore button. All good, it said it was updating my Ipod software and all went well. Then upon restart of the Ipod at the completion of the software update, no apple icon or anything. Just a blank white screen. The click wheel and all buttons still function as does the hold switch. I have tried resetting it (Menu and select) numerous times to no avail. I have tried restoring it and everything else with no result either. Connect it to my computer, Itunes sees it, syncs with it and all is well, just a blank white screen. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    I also have this problem. I've been living with it for about 3-4 months. My iPod classic 60gb will happily play music, connect to computers, and do every other function is has...the problem is I can't see what functions I'm selecting because of the blank screen - the back light is on, but none of the details seems to get loaded.
    So in theory, it's like using my iPod with my eyes shut - blindly navigating.
    This started happening around the time I got a car fm transmitter to use with it, so possibly the use of this may have corrupted the display?
    I'm still at a loss of how to fix this, other than taking it to get repaired somehow. Anyone else having this problem, or have a solution?

  • Ipod touch not responding blank white screen cant reset please help?

    Please Help!!
    I Just got the new a new ipod touch which was working fine.  I began updating to new apple software and while doing so I lost internet connection and ipod was unplugged.  Now all I get is a blank white or green screen even after reset.  The ipod won't even register when plugged into computer or itunes.  What can I do?? If I wait until the battery dies and run a restore will it work?? If so How do I get the games back I purchased recently? Please help I'm pretty new to all this.

    i have no idea what to do please help

    Try the white-screen topic here:

    If still a problem then let the battery fully drain and then then charge for an hour and try again.  Frequently a white screen is due to a hardware problem and service is required.

  • Ipod touch has blank white screen

    My Ipod touch has a blank white screen. I have attempted to restore and restart. I have also reset. The touch is recognized on my itunes page. It will allow me to eject the ipod. I also put earphones on to determine whether I could hear anything (desperation). I can hear something through the speakers. Not music but kind of like dead air---a little hissing----so I know something is going on. I am confused about what to do or whether that little white screen is the beginning of the end. Any insight into my problem would be much appreciated

    Hello all,
    I have a 14.88G iPod Nano that I currently use as my primary watch. A week or so ago I started to experience a blank white screen when I press the "sleep/wake" button instead of the watch face (I have it set to wake from sleep to display the clock). When I hard reset it, it will come back fine and the screen will respond and work as normal, as soon as I manually put it to sleep by pressing the "sleep/wake" button and then try to wake it the same thing happens and I have a blank white screen that doesn't respond to touch gestures or anything.
    What I have tried so far to no avail:
    Numerous hard restarts (holding the "sleep/wake" button with the volume - button).
    Tried this: iPod nano (6th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
    Changed the watch face to display.
    Recharged the device overnight (without full discharge).
    Since none of this works I'm out of ideas. Eventhough I have a 6G Nano it should no longer be under warranty since I was sent it as a replacement for a different (older) product.
    Any ideas? Is this a known problem? Thanks in advance for any insight any of you could provide. Also, what time is it??
    Regards,

    Hey,
    I have the exact same problem as you have described. I also used my ipod as a watch but starting from today, whenever I unlock it the screen turns white until a reset is done. Even a factory reset through itunes didn't fix it.
    Have you found any solution?
    Bah, this is annoying.
