IPod screen crooked/off center?

Hi everyone,
I just wanted to see if anyone else has had any problems with their iPod screen being crooked or off-center. Specifically, it looks like the LCD is crooked inside of the casing of my iPod. I have now gone through 3 5th generation 60gb iPods, and they have all had noticebly crooked screens. The latest one that I received as a replacement is now relatively straight but is very much off-center through the viewing window in the casing of my iPod. Does anyone else have this problem, or am I just being picky? It is very distracting to me when I am watching videos, and since this is a big investment for me, I want to make sure I am getting the product in the right condition. Thanks for your help!!

Thanks. I searched the forums and only found a couple of other complaints, so I didn't know if it was just me or not! I called support today and they are sending me a box to send my ipod in for replacement. I don't want to be picky, but for almost $400, I would think I could get a straight and centered screen!

  • Why does my keyboard repeat keys and the screen goes off center?

    Keyboard repeats letters, erases multiple letters and generally goes crazy. Also screen goes off center and too large for frame.

    First see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Home screen icons are magnified or large
    Next try:
    - 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.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Screen is off center

    I just got my macbook pro through fedex today
    When i turned on my lovely new macbook pro, i noticed the viewable screen is slightly off center to the left.
    I had mine upgraded to hi-res, and was wondering if everyone is having the same problem or if i should take it in for a replacement.

    I would imagine this is a setting on the TV itself, refer to the manual that came with the TV.

    my screen display is off-center. How can I get it to fill the entire width of the screen?

    And set the "resolution" to the default setting (the highest) in SystemPreferences/Displays.

  • My ipod screen came off why?

    1 week ago my ipod started to not charge and then the screen started to come off and i wanted to know why?

    It's glued on and the glue must have come lose. If it's out of warranty, you can try and fix it yourself. Check iFixIt and YouTube for screen repair.

  • New monitor now screen way off center at proper resolution

    Hi
    After my monitor died I got a 24" LED Combo Television/DVD player FLDC2400 60hz, 1080p resolution by Fluid.  The guy in the shop said it would work as a computer monitor.  The only problem is that when I have it set to the recommended resolution (I clicked on that 'detect' button in the control panel display settings) the image is clear and sharp but waaaaay off to the right, cutting about 1/8 of the display and leaving a thick panel of black over the other side.  If I make the resolution lower it centers again but then everything has that low quality fuzzy bloated look to it.  Is there something I can do so that the proper resolution screen works?
    Thanks!  And if anyone is kind enough to answer please know I am a computer dummy so explain things as you would to a five year old!!! :-)

  • IPod turns off when screen turns off

    When my iPod screen turns off so does the sound through the headphones.  I tried updates, different headphones, reboots.
    Any suggestions??
    I was offered  6th generation for my 1st generation recalled nano, I regret switching now as my 1st generation was still going strong.

    Hi Bricky66,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you're experiencing some unusual behavior with your iPod nano. I'd suggest some of the troubleshooting steps in this article:
    iPod troubleshooting basics and service FAQ
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1382
    The headphones don't work
    ...If the issue appears to be with the iPod, try resetting it. If that doesn't work, then restore iPod with the latest iPod software using iTunes...
    Best,
    Jeremy

  • Quick Time Player Opens Off-Center

    I use QT 7.7.2 and, when I open videos in the player, the pane is reduced from full screen and off center.  To play it I have to drag it to the left to reveal the controls at the top right, then click to go to full screen.  I have to do this for every video clip.  How can I get the player to open in full screen, please?  I am sure it's a simple setting.

  • Will the 30pin adaptor be off center when attached to the new nano?

    Since the connector on the new ipod nano is off center, does that mean the 30pin adaptor will be off center when attached to the nano?

    Why? How is this a problem. The 30 pin connector was off center on the 2nd, 4th, and 5th generation Nano.

  • The screen is locked on and off center toggle switch is off does anyone have any suggestions

    My older ipod shuffle is locked on and the screeis a little off center I've tried most all of the common solutions . Has anyone experienced this problem?

    When you say the only tool available was to restart... do you mean Disk Utility wasn't there?
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    I also tried safe booting and holding down the options key..
    Shift key invokes a "Safe Boot", the Option key should bring up the Boot Options screen where available boot drives are shown.
    Do you have another Mac with Firewire around and does this one boot into FireWire target disk mode...
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1661
    If so this Mac will look like a big Firewire drive to the other one, and if the other one is the same OS or higher you can try Disk Utility on the other one to attempt repair of the iMac's drive.
