Is it bad to turn your iPod touch off every night? If I don't, the screen will be blank/distorted.

I just got my new iPod touch from Fry's electronic, and just last night, I put it on sleep thoughout the whole night. I wake up, press the home button, and it lights up a gradiant grey-white. It happened the other day when I was playing with Draw Something. I then tried turning it off, and it took forever. But now its working. So I was wording if it's bad/not the best to turn your iPod touch off everynight, and if you do it?

I just let my iPod sleep overnight. I turn on airplane mode to minimnize battery drain.

    I have been told that if you turn your iphone completely off every night that it was not good for the phone. Is this factual or not?

    Of course it is not true.

  • My ipad turns in but will not boot up. screen stays blank. I've tried resetting it and rebooting from itunes. It says it is done but the screen still stays blank. The apple icone will show up intermittetly.

    I turned on my ipad after charging it and the screen went blank. I tried the home button and on off button and that did not help. I went to iTunes and rebooted the ipad and restored it and it asked me to reboot from the ipad but the screen is still blank. It will go to a blue screen if I hit the on/off button. What else is there to check?

    If you restored the iPad, there is nothing else to check. I suggest that you make an appointment at an Apple Store Genius Bar and let them evaluate your iPad.

  • Ipod touch 4th gen won't show anything on the screen after "reset all settings" option??

    okay, here's the situation.
    1. I DID NOT under ANY CIRCUMSTANCE Jailbreak this iPod. in fact,  the iPod was FULLY reformatted, and had a whole new library put on it prior to the malfunction.
    2. the iPod WAS FULLY WORKING BEFORE i selected the "Reset all settings" Option from the Privacy menu
    3. I have tried ALL of the reset steps, including, but not limited to; DFU mode, Force reset, Hard reset, Hard reset, Force-into-itunes, and the like.
    So, knowing that I HAVE NOT jailbroken this iPod, and I have tried EVERYTHING tio fix it, what might the problem be? please, someone help ASAP.
    Brandon.

  • HT1212 Up to how long will my iPod touch 5th generation be disabled with ios7? The screen doesn't say anymore...

    I can't remeber my iPod touch 5th generation's pass code. I know the four numbers included, just not the sequence. It disabled yesterday at 6pm, and it's now 11am and still disabled. Also, when I first got my iPod, my friend synced it with her iTunes, so I can't plug it into mine.
    I have a lot of pictures and songs that I really don't want to lose, by just restoring it, if I can even do that.
    So, my question is either,
    1. Up to how many hours can my iPod be disabled for? (The new iOS won't tell us!) And how long will it disabled after each try??
    2. Is there any way to get the pass code off my iPod touch without losing all my apps, music, pictures, ect.?
    Thank you!!

    If it says "iPad is disabled" it is never going to time out.  At that point, your only option is to restore it in iTunes.
    If you have a backup in place now (in iCloud or iTunes) once restored, you can restore from backup, but the only way to un-disable the device is to restore it.

  • My iPod touch's power button got stuck and then the screen went white.

    My iPod touch 4G was a great device, until I stopped using it when iOS 7 came out back in 2013. Then eventually I got back to using it and then one day the power button started acting a little bit funny and then the entire button got stuck in the device. Eventually I tried to fix it so I opened up the screen and tried pushing the button back up. Then the worst happened, I touched something behind the screen and then the screen froze. Then the screen went white. I could do nothing as the power button was stuck in the device. Then it just sat there, white, until it died a few hours later. So heres my question,
    What do I do?
