Ipod touch screen all white

My son has an ipod touch 4th gen. The screen is all white, we are unable to view any apps, etc... Any help would be appreciated. Cant power it down because we cant even view the power slide bar on the screen. It is fully charged. Any ideas?

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

Try restoring the iPod. First from backup and if problem persists, restore to factory settings/new iPod.
If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Ipod touch screen went white and wont turn on

help!!
the ipod touch went white on its screen and the laptop cannot recognise the ipod it says unknown device! now the ipod wont even switch on
can any1 help me

I am not sure if I know enough about iPod's to be able to help you completely but I can offer a few suggestions. First of all, you can try restarting your iPod (by holding the OFF button and the HOME button at the same time for a long period of time.) If that doesn't work then you could try connecting your iPod up to your computer and if it shows up on iTunes you can RESET your iPod. Hope that helped a little!

My ipod touch screen went white and when i plug it into my computer....nothing happens. help!

I went to turn on my iPod Touch one day and the screen went white. Tried resetting and got nothing. Tried plugging in to usb port and got nothing. Neither the computer nor iTunes recognizes my device. What do I do now?

By resetting did you see the apple logo? Try pressing and holding the on/off and home buttons simultaneously until the screen goes blank (black) and you see the apple logo. It should take about 10-15 seconds to reset.

My iPod touch screen is white but resetting it doesn't work. What do I do?

I turned on my iPod touch and the screen was white with blue pixelations. I tried holding the home button and power button simultaneously for 10 seconds to reset it but it just went black and then restarted with a white screen again. I don't know if it's something I can fix by restoring it on iTunes or if I have to send it in to get it repaired. Any suggestions?

- Try connecting to comutr and then try to restor.
- If still white screen, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an hour try the reset and restore again.

Hi there, ipod touch went white. I tried the menu and on/off button for 10 seconds. I also tried connecting to the computer via i tunes. My computer did not detect the ipod? Any other options?

what do i do if my ipod touch screen is white? i already tried holding the lock and home button at the same time, it only turns off. Also, i have already restored it using itunes. the screen is still white.

If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.

White IPod Touch Screen

My Ipod Touch Screen has suddenly turned white and keep flicking different colours.
I've tried the 10 second restore but it still doesn't work what should I do

Try doing this, force shut down iPod by holding down the "sleep" button and the "home" button until the screen turns off. Press the on button. If that doesn't work, then do another force shut down then plug your iPod into the computer while holding the "home" button until you see a picture showing a USB cord going into a iTunes logo. iTunes will display a pop up saying your iPod is in recovery mode and you have to restore it before it can be used. Restore it, but beware that all data will be erased. Hope you have a recent backup. If you fail to enter recovery mode, or the restore fails, enter DFU mode. Google how to enter DFU mode, if that dosn't work after the restore, ur iPod might have a graphical chip failure or something and it will have to be serviced

My ipod touch screen is broken and whenever i press the lock screen button, the screen is white, what can i do to fix this?

so my ipod touch screen is broken, and whenver i try to unlock the ipod screen, all that i can see is the top right hand corner of my ipod, and the rest is all whited out. Also, the jack which support the headphones to stay in place, one of the balls in the jack is pushed in which causes the headphones and stereo jack to slip all the time. I also have a problem which is when i try to sync my ipod to itunes. Last time i did it(which was 4 years ago), i synced my ipod and i started out with 225 songs, after the syncing process was complete, i ended up with 119 songs. I'm afraid to resync my ipod or back up my ipod to a computer because i dont want to lose the wonderful collection of 589 songs i have now. I'd really appreciate it if i got some feedback. Thanks.

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

My iPod touch screen went fuzzy with pink and white stripes

Hello! I really appreciate if anyone would tell me what's wrong with my iPod touch.
I have been using my iPod touch for less than a year, and honestly, I have quite a bad habit: I always use it for playing games. And sometimes, I even use it while it is charging. Usually it's fine, nothing went wrong, so I keep doing the same thing sometimes.
one day, I'm visiting my relative and tried to charge my iPod. Since my iPod doesn't have an adaptor, I usually charge it using my laptop (the seller told me to charge it in a laptop/computer). One day, I borrowed my cousin's laptop to charge my iPod, but she only gave me an adaptor (not made for iPod or any apple products, but it fits so I thought it's okay). But the next day, I found out that my iPod went off by itself and I know that my battery isn't low.
I Tried to charge it using my laptop at home, but it still went off! Also, it went normal in my laptop (the iTunes appeared automatically, as a sign that my iPod is charging). So, I tried to restore it and I worked (at least I thought so), until I saw my screen went fuzzy (pink and white stripes). So, almost everyday I turn off my iPod, turn it on again, wait for a while, then use it normally. Usually it lasts 'normal' for hours, but it will still be error as usual.
So, my question is:
What makes my iPod touch screen went fuzzy?
Is it because I used it while charging?
Is it because I charged it with an adaptor that is not made for Apple products?
please help me, I don't know what else to do! I have restored it, I didn't download many applications like I used to before, and I left it alone when I was charging (I didn't play it while it's charging any more), and I even didn't turn on the Wi-Fi if I'm not using it (I almost NEVER turn off the Wi-Fi before my iPod touch went error)
Thank you for answering..

HT1459 My iPod touch screen just turned a white-ish green color and I can't turn it on or off. I can't connect it to iTunes, and the back is too scratched up to see the serial number so I have no way of getting it. Can someone tell me how to fix it?
