Ipod nano white screen and not turning off

hi I bought a new mini pioneer stereo/dvd and put my ipod nano on it yesterday.. no probs it played.... but today i put it on the dock and all that it showed on the screen was a white screen with "ok to disconnect" on it... I took it off and now it is still a white screen adn flashing "Do not disconnect" I'm freaking out because I am not technically minded and my brother spent hours putting music on it for me
It is not turning off at all
eek
Thanks to anyone with time to help me

Hi
It seems to be ok now... I had to go out and it ran out of battery, when I switched it back on it appears to be fine.
If it happens again (hoping that it doesn't!) and i do the reset.. will that remove all the music that's on there?
Sorry for the ignorance
Thank you for the answer

Ipod nano: white screen and beeping twice

I have an ipod nano 4th or 5th generation. When I try to turn it on, it displays a white screen and beeps twice. I have tried the basic things: toggling the lock switch, holding down select and menu buttons simultaneously, doing that and then holding down the play and select simultaneously. Even restored it. Updated all of my itunes software. Still broken. What next?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
-When it says place the iPod in recovery mode use this program instead of the buttons.

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Ipod nano 6 gen hangs when turning off the backlight. That is, it doesn't respond to button presses on the touch screen.

ipod nano 6 gen hangs when turning off the backlight. That is, it does not respond to button presses on the touch screen. He also has just a white screen instead of the desktop display. Tried to rearrange the screen from another Ipod nano, but nothing came of it - all the same ... What should I do?

Hi Rc_Drifter,
Welcome to the Support Communities! The article below will help you troubleshoot the issue you are having with your iPod nano. Restoring the device may resolve the backlight issue as well.

Display shows a white screen
Try putting the iPod into disk mode:
Reset the device (press the Sleep and Volume Down buttons simultaneously until the display turns black—about eight seconds).
When the display turns black, hold down the Volume Down and Volume Up buttons simultaneously until the device enters Disk mode.
While the device is in disk mode, sync it to iTunes and try to restore.
I hope this information helps ....

Hi meganisawsome,
If your iPod will not turn on and you are getting indicators that there is no battery left, the first step would be to make sure that the iPod has been charged correctly. You may find the following article useful:

If you are still having issues after charging, you may want to look at this article:

My ipod touch is froze and wont turn off. any ideas?

My ipod touch is frozen and wont turn off. I need help everything ive tried isnt working!

Just had this similiar issue with my iPod. Simple steps found through the Apple Support Website. Follow this link:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1320, or follow instructions listed below to reset a frozen iPod nano/classic/color display/click-wheel, etc.:
1) Toggle the Hold switch on and then off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again)
2) Press and hold the Menu and center buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears, about 6 to 8 seconds. This step may need to be repeated. (*sidenote...I also found that the iPod would not respond/reset when it was connected to my computer. It just continued to state that it was connected and needed to be ejected before disconnecting. I pulled the link cable out of the frozen iPod and followed the above steps and it reset normally.)
Hope this helps...

5th Gen iPOD has white screen and beeps when center and menu button is held

My ipod was perfectly fine until I downloaded iPod Updater 2006-01-10...now, my ipod has a white screen, won't turn off (white screen stays on) and when I hold the center and menu button down, it does a 3 syllable beep. I've done the switching the hold button back and forth; resetting my ipod; restarting my PC; un-installing and re-installing both the itunes software and the ipod updater and still no working ipod. I am atleast trying to restore it to factory settings, but, I get an error message on the iPod updater screen. Can anyone help? Thanks!

everybody listen to babara hall, genius, it takes a while but reset it one more time using menu and selct and while its off for a few seconds push selct and play/pause, hold it for a long while, then let go and you'll see the apple logo and everything will go back to the way it was before.
p.s. thank you so much, ipods working great now, glad someone knows what there doing instead of apple,lol
