Ipod stuck and froze, now has blank screen! HELP!
I was playing on an app and all of a sudden my screen froze. Even though it froze I still was able to touch and somewhat play the game, but i couldn't return to the home screen. I was able to get to the music/song section by double clicking the home button but it was still frozen. I also followed directions on how to restart my ipod but it only made it worse by leaving me with an unusable blank white screen.Not only that but I tried plugging it into my computer with the USB but nothing came up & I wasn't able charge it.
HOW CAN I FIX THIS????
I HAVE A ROAD TRIP TOMORROW AND I NEED THIS IPOD FOR IT!

MacBook pro won't power up! Acting asleep, black screen, fans don't fire up. Light nr catch pulsing, have taken batt out and reset but still blank screen, help!!
You may want to try this.
Solution A
Start up your MBP while pressing Option (alt)|, Command, P, R until your hear 3 chimes rather than 2 as indicated by apple. This worked for me the first time.
Solution B
Start your MBP while pressing Option (alt), Command, S
Hold until you see the computer automatic routine. When it finally stops type the following followed by "return":
fsck -fy
It will probably indicate some problem related to "pcscd.pub" (should be 16 instead of 17). I haven't figured out what this means but somewhere in the Internet i read it is related to scan cards...
More importantly this routine will fix any problems with your HDD similarily to disk repair. When it ends, it will tell you if it has fixed/modified anything. If it has, run the routine again by typing again "fsck -fy"
Lastly, reboot by typing "reboot" (followed by "return")
Solution C
Start up your MBP while pressing option (alt), command, S
hold keys until you see computer commands scrolling
when the routine stops type the following, each line followed by the "return" key:
mount -uw /
chmod 775 /
chmod 1775 /
reboot
After which your computer should reboot on it's own.
Each of the above has worked for me at one time or another. Once your computer has rebooted from the DVD you can reinstall OS X. If your problems started after installing 10.5.6, then I don't suggest updating until 10.5.5.
I'm very very disappointed with my 2007 MBP, it started to give me problems after 1 year. had to change the HDD and lately when I isntalled 10.5.6 it suddenly refused to start up., My previous Mac laptop (2003 866Mhz) worked for 4 years without a hitch. Ironically I've had to use it to access the internet and find solutions for my current MBP.

Movies downloaded to my ipad are getting stuck and I get a blank screen
I donwload a couple episodes from a tv show, the first 3 episodes were great I saw them no problem, BUT then when I dowloaded the 4, I started watching and when it get to 75% of the episode stops, if I go back it gets stuck on the same part, then i get a blank screen and I have get out of the application if I get back on still the same blank screen, I downloaded the follwing episode from the same show and still the same problem.
I though that it could be space on the Ipad - I deleted some application and still the same problem....
I don't want to keep downloading and paying for something that is not working properly
This is only happening with I tunes - I'm able to watch ABC apps and Netflix...
Can you help me?Have you tried copying them to your computer and seeing whether they play ok on your computer's iTunes, in case the download itself is corrupt ?
If the Videos app is still stuck, then try searching for the name of one of the videos on the iPad's spotlight search screen - swipe your first homescreen to the right, type in it's name, and if it finds it tap on it to see if it plays.
If that doesn't work then try closing the Videos app completely : from the home screen (i.e.not with the Videos app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Videos app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option if the two above don't work is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. -
I reset settings. Now has blank screen with Apple . How do I get to load?
I Hit reset setting on mini iPad to see if would help programs from going out. Now. all I have is a black screen with Apple showing with white line below it. Doesn't like trying to open. haven't got it to do updates either. Can anyone advise me on how to get to get ipad restarted again?
Try this. Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button continuously until the Apple logo appears. Then release the button and let the device restart. You will not lose data doing this. It's like a computer reboot.

I have and iPod Touch, and my sister has an iPod touch. Both use the same Apple ID. If I use iMessage, can my sister see my messages?
Yes.
I recommend that you
Create a NEW account/ID using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
Use the new ID but only for:
Settings>Messages>Send and Receive
Settings>FaceTime
Settings>GameCenter
and Settings>iCloud if you want to have separate Contacts Calendar and some other things.
Continue to use the same/common Apple ID for Settings>iTunes and App stores so you can share purchases. -
