IPod Touch 4G -- white spots occur on the backplate

Can anyone tell me the reason why white spots occur on the backplate of my iTouch 4G???
I'm using a SUM4J!N soft case .. Those spots are multiplying everyday ... It gets worse and worse
I've decided not to use the case anymore ...
Please help me with solutions if there are possible ways to remove those spots

I am also having the exact same problem, I have no idea how to get rid of them, I even tried scratching the marks off with a knife, doesn't work. The problem started after I started using the Griffen Reveal case for my ipod touch 4g. Should I send it to Apple to have it fixed?

  • Ipod touch 4g White spot appears when Touch the screen

    Hi,
    I recently found out that when I touch the upper left part of the screen on my ipod touch a white spot appears, Why does this happen and would it be covered under The warranty? Never been exposed to water.

    Anyone?

  • When i turn my ipod touch 4g on it goes from the apple logo to the white wheel then to a blank white screen, please help

    After using itunes to restore it i turned my ipod touch on and it stayed on the apple logo for a few minutes then it would change to a spinning wheel on a black screen then the screen would turn white and the process will repeat. I can still put it in dfu mode and recovery mode but they don't help. So hopefully someone in this community can help me. And this all started when i updated it to ios 6.1.3 from 6.1.2. and also my computer and itunes dont recognize it

    See if you missed anything here:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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.

  • What do i do after downloading iOS 3.1 software and "There was a problem downloading iOS 3.1.1 software update for ipod touch. an unknown error occurred (8288). Please check that the connection to the network is active and try again." comes up?

    what do i do after downloading iOS 3.1 software and "There was a problem downloading iOS 3.1.1 software update for ipod touch. an unknown error occurred (8288). Please check that the connection to the network is active and try again." comes up?

    Hello, I hope by now you have resolved the upgrade issue, but if not, here is what I ended up having to do:
    “SUCCESS!!! I took my iPod to a friend who is a computer programmer/genius. He turned off his wireless, hooked the ethernet cable directly into his computer, and the download went through without a hitch. YAY!”
    Here is my original post explaining what I had already tried:
    “Hi all,
    I got an iPod Touch 1st gen for my youngest son for Christmas as a starter. It has the 2.1.2 ios on it, but after I paid for the upgrade to 3.1.1, I keep getting an error message (8288) saying there was a problem with the network connection. I have called customer service, and they suggested I try on a different computer, and if that didn't work, try connecting to a different network, and then trying the update. None of this has worked. It seems that tech support is clueless with this issue.
    I have installed and unistalled iTunes 10.5, 10.3, 10.4, and now I am back with 10.5. I have tried looking up the issue from several search engines but no one seems to have a universal solution and I have tried several.
    I really want to have this thing updated for himw hwne he opens it, but I am starting to worry that my purchase was a bust. I know this is the oldest version, but I don't want to buy a newer, more expensive iPod and him still not be mature enough to really take care of it. As I said, this one is a starter.
    Can anyone help? Please?!
    Thank you!!!
    P.S. We have a PC, with Windows XP Home.”
    Now, there seem to be a lot of different ways to solve the 8288 error, none of which are universal. Best of luck getting yours upgraded!

    P.S. The post by Sparkhi is a link to his blog going into a long story about how he wanted Apple to pay him for “solving” the issue….the one that apparently has been solved by multiple solutions. I’m not trying to bash, it just bothers me that he put up this whole story and finally, at the very end of his blog post, posts his solution.

    If you successfully restored the iPod to factory settings/new iPod (went through all the steps without errors), then time for an appointment a the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • TS2771 My Ipod touch displays white lines across the screen.  I've turned it on and off but still shows up HELP!!!

    My Ipod touch displays white lines across my entire screen.  I've turned it on and off and it still hasn't cleared up.HELP!?!

    Try the standard fixes:
    - Reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod
    If you still have the problem that points to a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Cannot re-install the software on my ipod touch. "Unknown error occurred(6)

    Hi,
    I Cannot re-install the software on my ipod touch.
    First time I got the following message: "Unknown error occurred(6).
    The last time I got the following message: "Unknown error occured (1604).
    I am then told to re-install again and the above errors occur again. It this like a never ending loop.
    Can you help.
    Thanks in advance.

    No, you shouldn't lose the stuff on your ipod. If you have synced your ipod recently, itunes would have made a backup file of all of your settings and files on the ipod. This is used when you restore.
    Plug your ipod in and the screen that pops up in itunes will have a button to "restore". This will wipe everything off the ipod, reinstall the firmware and then reload all of your stuff. itunes will use the most recent backup file to reload everything. about halfway through the process, itunes will ask you if you want to restore as a new ipod or use a backup... choose the backup.
    Be patient, it takes a while, but when it's done your ipod should be good as new.
