IPod Touch 4g stuck pixels
I just recently received the new iPod touch from the online apple store and found over 9 stuck pixels scattered around the screen. They are noticeable especially on a dark screen and I was wondering if I would be able to go to an apple store and get a replacement. I also got it engraved so would this prevent me from getting a replacement?
You can take it to any store and they will replace it with no problem. Usually they give you a stock iPod off the shelf, but if you want to keep the engraving, request it, and they will give you a call when the iPod gets to the store.
It's unfortunate that they cant engrave in store so that people who order online won't have to go to a store, but it occurs from time to time.

Hi, I just got my iPod about a month ago and I have just spotted a stuck pixel (only viewable in with a black back ground It's small, green)
The problem is my mom says she's not going all the way to the store to swap it or something like that I all ready sent it in to apple and they rejected it saying it meets there standards and I even include images and I also rubbing the display hard and try those dead pixel testers things on YouTube did nothing. nothing works!! so my question is should I keep using it like I didn't even know it was there?That's what I thought so thank you I took your advice and I'm gonna keep it only one pixel and may be during just regular use it will go away the guy at apple care call center said its only one so.... Yah

My iPod touch is stuck in landscape view. Even when held vertically if I open facebook or safari is rotates to landscape. Have tried turning on and off, same results. Any ideas to fix?
Try switching it back from landscape to vertical. Or, go to settings and see if you have any special setting turned on that enable only landscape view. Also, try hooking it up to your computer and charging it to see what happens.

My iPod touch is stuck on one song in my play list when in the shuffle mode. How do I fix this to shuffle through all the songs in that playlist?
If you go to the Now Playing screen, the Repeat control is the the arrowed racetrack icon on the left side right below the scrubber bar. Tap the icon to change. It is white when Repeat is off.

The screen on my ipod touch is stuck zoomed in. I don't know how it happened I just looked down and it was like that. I have turned it off and back and even reset it but it still keeps zooming back in each time I turn it on. I can't unlock it because I can't see the numbers and it won't let me move around the screen. Please help.
This is asked and answered often. The foru search bar is on the right side of this page.
It is also covered in the manual - zoom feature:

My daughter's iPod Touch is stuck on a blank screen with that loading circle thing just going around and around. She said she was trying to duplicate an app or something, and all the the apps started shaking like when you delete them. I turned the iPod off, but it never turned back on completely. I tried to restore it, but it's saying that I have to enter the passcode. But, as I said, there's nothing on the sceen excect the circle thing. Please help!!!!!

Since you are running iOS 5 you can always turn on Assistive Touch as well, which adds a Home button to the iPod's actual touch screen. Head to Settings -> General -> Accessibility -> Assistive Touch to turn it on.
