IPod touch, only has a grey screen when I turn it on, please help

Hi There everybody-
I was using my iPod Touch this morning and it was working great and had a full charge. I turned it off and came back about 10 nimuites later and tried to turn it on and I got no response. So after I tried again, it does turn on,,,but only has a greay dimly lit screen for about 10 sec. and then turns off.
Does anybody know what might have happned and how I can remedy that???
Thanks for your time and look forward to hearing from you soon.
Sincerely- Doug

Nevermind,,,I pressed the on/off and the home button for 10 seconds and reset it and it worked. Thanks for looking.
Doug

  • My iPod touch only has a bright whit screen restrain doesn't fix it

    My ipod touch only has a bright white screen .Restoring doesnt fix it

    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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Impossible to save my projects on ps touch on ipad. Grey screen when i want to save

    Impossible to save my projects on ps touch on ipad. Grey screen when i want to save

    I am also having the same issue on my nexus 7 with android 4.2.2.
    Saving only works after one or two changes but it fails after more ones.
    I confirm the saving dialog with save and then the saving animation keeps on spinning.
    I also restarted the system, reinstalled the app, deleted the app data or logged in to creative cloud but nothing changed!

  • My Ipod touch 4G has a white screen.

    My Ipod touch 4G has a white screen.  I've followed all the troubleshooting tips - turning off (hard to tell when all you see is white), hard reset, and restore.  I updated to the latest software versions.  Itunes recognizes the ipod.  I restored it.  Nothing changed.  Still have the white screen.  It hasn't been mishandled - no cracked screen, no water, hasn't been dropped.  Any other suggestions or is it time to call Apple?

    If you have done al the hardware troubleshooting, call Apple to get it serviced.

    Error 1604
    This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for the error.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
    The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.

    Apple will, however, replace the iPod for their standard out-of-warranty replacement fee.

    got grey screen when strat up，does genuis bar help to backup first b4 reset my hardwear？I didn't backup thoTAT

    It is too late to backup now, the disc is already malfunctioning.
    Backup is what you do before things break.
    Take it in and hope that something can be recovered, don't be surprised if it can't.

    What exactly is wrong with it and can it be fixed?
    If you have AppleCare and/or iPod Nano is still under warranty, give them a call.  If not, take the computer to your local Apple Store or AASP.  The staff will tell you what is wrong w/it and let you know if it can be fixed after it is examined.

  • My iphone volume turns down randomly own its own. It will turn up on the buttons, but will turn back down by itself and i have to fight the volume to keep it from muting. Plus, the mute logo stays on the screen when it mutes itself. Please help.

    Unfortunately this is probably a hardware issue and you will need to take it to an Apple Store.

  • My Ipod touch only has a blue/white screen.

    My Ipod Touch 3rd Gen 64gb was working perfectly til yesterday when the screen is now just blue/white. It still will darken when i press the lock button. I've tried reseting and restoring and this does nothing, screen remains the same. It makes all the right noises, when I connect it to my Macbook it makes the normal noise and is connected no problem. But all I can see is Blue and white pixels. Does the LCD component need replacing?

    If yo still have a problem after restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod then you likely have a hardware problem.  It could be the screen or it could be the electronics driving he screen.  I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
