Ipod Touch Display Issue

Turned on the iPod this morning and the display continously "shimmies".  Doesn't do it on installed games, but does so on SKYPE, youtube and other factory installed apps.
Anyone else having this issue?  Any resolutions?

Hi,
Try restoring your iPod to its factory settings and see if this works.

  • Ipod touch display issue--default page size larger than display

    When any page appears on the display, whether 'enter passcode' page, the homepages, or app pages, the page momentarily appears at the true (display) size, then increases in size so that the display shows only about 80% of the page.  Pinching has no effect on sizing, but finger swipes will move page within the display frame.  This first occurred today after about 6 months of ownership.  Any thoughts?

    Tap the screen twice with three fingers to get to normal screen. Then go to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn off Zoom. Also see:

  • HT201263 after restarting and restoring ipod touch, display is still white screen

    after restarting and restoring ipod touch, display is still white screen. I have done this several times. One time, the display went to the home screen, but immediately went back to the white screen when I plugged it into the charge cord. The music continued to play however. help!

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

    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.

    How do I work through "Your Apple ID has been disabled" on an Ipod Touch?
    My child's Ipod touch displays "Your Apple ID has been disabled" when attempting to update game Apps.  I have reset the password, and reset the Ipod to factory settings; did not resolve.  This began by entering wrong Apple ID password multiple times.  Thank you.

  • Ipod touch hardware issue?

    My ipod touch is doing some very strange things. When I am running an app, or on the internet, the app or Safari will close and display the menu screen. Then the screen will toggle back and forth from the menu screens, including the "Search iPod" screen. This is occurring without my touching the screen! If I try to go back to my app or web browsing, it will play tug of war with me and flip back to the menu/Search iPod screens. It will also occasionally turn on automatically, without being touched. I am guessing that this is a hardware issue, but I am not sure if I need to replace the LCD Screen Display, or if it is the touch screen digitizer assembly, or something else.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated
    Thank you very much

  • New to ipod touch - several issues and ?s - any help will be appreciated

    Hello - I received an ipod touch for christmas and have been enjoying it tons! I’m having a “duh” moment…can you please help. How do I move the icons around from page to page? I was able to get it to work once - but don’t know how I did it and now can’t figure it out any more.
    Two other questions… 1) when I downloaded a music video from itunes, it was saved under the “video” folder - well, it would not let me play it. An error would appear saying that it is unable to play the video. Then, the “graphic” beside the video, was of the cover of another movie I had purchased???
    2) My music had been playing just fine. I had been downloading cd’s onto my ipod (thru itunes) on a computer at home, then I came into the office (because I do not have internet at home) and purchased songs via itunes store and ever since then, when I try to play music it scrolls really fast through the song titles and arrow flashes in the top right corner and there is not any sound. Sometimes it will also display a frame of one of the movies I have saved while doing this as well - but will not play any music and freezes.

    E J, Welcome to the discussion area!
    How do I move the icons around from page to page?
    Touch and hold your finger on one of the application icons. When they start dancing you can drag the icons where you want them. To get them to another page, drag them right or left to the edge of the page and the page will change.

  • 3rd generation iPod touch syncing issues

    The last time I tried to sync my iTunes account through a wired connection between my Macbook Pro and 3rd generation iPod touch, I had some major issues.
    First: It deleted the YouTube, iBooks, Netflix, Dropbox, Facebook, and Kindle apps from my iPod and will not let me reinstall them because they are "not compatible with this iPod." This is really annoying.  It means I can never sync my computer with my iPod again.  The only way I can get those apps on my iPod is if I go to the store in the iPod and download each one individually.
    Second: Some songs that I have recently acquired will not sync with my iPod because they are not the right format or something.  I never had issues with this before.  This song is in the same format as some songs I aready have on the iPod.
    Solutions I have tried:  I tried reinstalling iTunes and it didn't help.  I tried reseting my iPod to factory settings and starting with a "new iPod," twice.  This did not help either.
    My Question: Is this an issue because my iPod is out of date and means that I am just SOL or can it be fixed?

    The shuffle and iPod touch use different drivers.

    I would start with:

  • 5th Generation iPod Touch Syncing issues

    I recently receive a 5th Generation iPod Touch as a gift and I am having issues with it. I plugged the iPod into my Windows 7 PC with iTunes 11.4.0.18 and had issues from the start. First, my iPod would not even sync any media content from my library. So I messed around with the settings until the content was on my iPod. Once, it was on there I went to play a song that I had downloaded and it immediately skipped the song and kept going to the next available song , so I went back on to the forums to see that it could be a corruption on the backup and all you would have to do is restore your iPod and it would fix your issue. I did that got to the same step and a few songs played but most skipped. The album art is there for most of the songs not the music. I then went to iPod>On this iPod to find that every song I had just sync had an exclamation point error by the song. This is only happening on the On this iPod menu the music plays fine on the music menu without an issue. I am curious of what I am doing wrong here? I also read that it could be a much bigger problem in that I would have to delete all my music and re-install it. If that is the case I will deal with the iPod as is. It is not worth my time to spend hours trying to re-install 15+ GB on my PC again. 

    Verify that all play in iTunes on the computer.
    Then
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
    or                     
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
    - 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:

  • Ipod Touch: My Issues, help needed as fast as possible

    Well recently i got an Ipod Touch 2nd Generation for christmas, and i must say i love it. But i have got some serious problems. 1) all applications that were not standard on the itouch crash unexpectedly and the only way to rectify this issue is to download something from the app store and they work again :S. Yes that is as bizarre as it sounds. Sometimes it will work fine and i can use any of my apps whenever i like. But frequently(more frequently as time goes on) the applications dont open, i touch them they open the background for the app and they take me back to the main screen. I have tried the following: reseting the iPod, restoring it to factory settings, uninstalling apps and then re-installing and this issue is resolute. I also happen to know that some other 2nd Generation Touch owners at my school have the very same issue. I have seen some threads dotted about explaining their issues that are similar to this, meaning its fairly widespread.
    My second issue is really bugging me, i opened the itunes store for the first time on my iPod(i never get any of my music from itunes normally i detest the application.) and all of a sudden it downloaded a podcast without me telling it to. It was called Podhead: The DoorWhores Off to vegas. This is something i really do not wish to have on my iPod. So i synced it to my windows OS and tried to re-sync the iPod's podcasts with my library so that it would dissappear. But it didn't, i then tried setting it to manually putting files on my ipod and alas it doesnt show up in the podcasts sub section of the device. I tried playing the podcast and it takes me to the home screen of my ipod with the Play triangle flickering constantly in the top right of my ipod. I don't know what is going on with that but i havnt restored it to factory settings after this issue, mainly because my iPod refuses to accept that i own all of the apps i have backed up and i have no desire to manually re-download them to my ipod.
    3) That last scentence brings me nicely onto my final problem which is this: my computer tells me that i do not have the authority to put onto my ipod. Despite all of them being free and despite all of them having being backed up from my ipod.
    Any help with these issues would be much appreciated. I am in desperate need of assistance before i come to the end of my tether and resign myself to a long trip to the nearest apple store. thanks in advance

    Did you try to restore your iPod to factory settings and add your apps one by one to find out which app causes the crash? Try not to restore from a backup it may contain the corrupt parts you don't want to install again.

  • IPod touch displaying wrong thumbnails

    guys,
    My iPod touch has started to display the wrong album art thumbnails recently and I can't find anything on how to fix this. I routinely download podcasts and add my own music and videos to iTunes and in iTunes everything displays correctly. Once I sync my iPod to the computer it takes album art from music and transposes it with the video thumbnails and vice versa, sometimes I'll end up with a music file with album art that is the screen clip from a video pod cast and other such errors. Is there any way to correct this?

    When did this start happening?
    First, make sure your date/time are correct on the computer you're syncing with.
    Next, you might try erasing the backup of your iPod and then resyncing your iPod. To do this go to Edit> Preferences> Devices. Select your iPod from the list and click Remove Backup. Close iTunes. Re-open it. Sync the iPod again. A new backup should be created.

  • IPod Touch Sync Issues - Fails, then 100% CPU

    I've been having a problem where when I try to sync my iPod Touch on my computer, it fails some way through, then the CPU is cranked up to 100% and I have to forcibly restart my computer. Ever since I've installed Windows 7 64-bit I've been having sync issues so I tried restoring it completely and I got myself into this mess. I originally had Vista 32-bit so I'm not sure if it's because of the change. But I have an HP Pavilion dv2615nr. Any help would be greatly appreciated cause I cannot get any music onto my iPod.

    dv2615nr
    I believe you've got an nVidia chipset on that model. If so, and you've got over 4 GB of RAM, you'll need to update your Host Controllers.
    It's available either as a Microsoft hotfix:
    [You encounter problems when you move data over USB from a Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2-based computer that has an NVIDIA USB EHCI chipset and at least 4GB of RAM|http://support.microsoft.com/kb/976972]
    ... or as a Host Controller update from HP:
    [Driver update for Win7 USB issue on nVidia chipset systems now available|http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Lockups-Freezes-Hangs/Driver-update-for- Win7-USB-issue-on-nVidia-chipset-systems-now/m-p/188193]
    (Unfortunately, it doesn't always appear on the downloads page for a specific model ... if you upgrade to 7 on some earlier models, they don't always provide all potentially relevant drivers. I couldn't find any Windows 7 drivers available for you model for example.)
    To doublecheck to see if your model does have an nVidia chipset, it might be worth posting over at the HP Support forums.

  • IPod Touch update issue

    Downloaded update for iPod Touch 3rd Gen, iPod froze up.  Does not respond to turning off, frozen with applie image on screen....  iTunes does not recognize connection.  Can anyone tell me how to resolve this issue?

    Hello
    I have an itouch 1st gen and went to try and update the software to the latest 3.0 update. I purchased the software and then itunes tried to update my itouch with the latest software.
    By doing so this has caused my itouch to freeze and go into recovery mode which I havent been able to get out of after trying all that article ts1275 asked me to do. i.e reinstall itunes / try different pc / try different usb port / try to reboot itouch etc etc
    I resorted to contacting tech support which was of no help as I already tried all that I could to get my itouch out of recovery mode. The other problem is that as I brought my itouch way back in 2007 my warranty is out of date and that means basically there not willing to do much to help. I explained that it was the software update that caused my itouch to crash and prior to the update it was working fine. There reply is that the software would not put my itouch in recovery mode and that it must be a hardware problem.
    End result after spending 1hr 30mins on the phone is that I have booked in with tech support at an apple store and if found to be a hardware issue then I would have to pay £116 for an out of warranty replacement.
    I think this is a joke and its to easy to put the blame on hardware issue when the device was working fine prior to software update.
    Ps I would be happy to hear if anyone else has had the same problem so we can build a case against Apple for causing the problem
