IPod struck on white screen, tried everything

Hi,
I have a 5th gereration iPod struck on the white screen. I've seen many posts with people having the same issue.
I never see the Apple logo, it doesn't seem to play any song, I can get it to be recognized by iTunes.
I've tried everything I could think of :
- followed the step of http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24040?viewlocale=en_US
- Reset (menu + center) dozen of times.
- Reset (menu + center) dozen of times + disk mode (center+play)
- Restore under OS X, restore under Windows (the firmware is 1.3)
- unmounted to check if any wires were disconnected, was fine
- Installed Rockbox
None of those allowed me to play music (or get acces to the iPod)
Any ideas ?

It is probably a faulty screen, you may need to replace the screen.

Macbook won't load past white screen, tried everything.

Hi all,
I've tried everything I've come across to get my Macbook running again. Tried booting into safe mode, didnt work, tried fixing using fsck in single-user mode, fsck said it worked but still wouldn't boot! Even tried verbose mode but came across disk0s2 I/O error.
Can anyone help me out, it loads up to the white screen with the grey apple logo and the loading wheel goes round and round but goes no where.
Working on Mac OS X but forget exactly which one.

Hi, I had a similar problem a couple of years ago, the problem ended up being my hard drive had crashed on my macbook. You should take it to your nearest Genius Bar, they will check and see if thats the problem for free, fixing however if it is that can get expensive, of course thats according to a very poor college student, It was about 220 or so. but if you do find out its the HDD you could always just go buy one and instal it yourself, I hear it not that hard to do acutally. Good luck!

White screen, Tried everything.

My 80gb classic is showing me a white screen. We have tried everything from Restoring, to formating it, to defraging it. Nothing is working and I need it fixed. It still plays music and scrolls around, but its completely blank and white.

It is probably a faulty screen, you may need to replace the screen.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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 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.

I have the same exact issue. Fifth generation iPod Nano, blank screen, Restore had no effect. I'm running Windows 7 Home, with all software up-to-date. I suspect hardware damage. Any clarification would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

This forum category (where your question appeared) is for iPod shuffle, which has no screen. What iPod model do you have?
When you connect the iPod to your computer, and run iTunes, the iPod does not appear in the sidebar, under DEVICES?

Where and when did this message appear?
