My daughter dropped her sister Ipod gen 4 32Gb and now the screen only comes up with a white screen. What should I do?

If you have an Apple Store near you, take it there and have them check it. If you don't, I would send it in for service.

Updating my iPod Touch failed and now the screen is permanently lit with a white Apple logo above what appeares to be a download indicator bar. Now totally unresponsive and non-detectable by iTunes or my PC!

Hi, Can anyone help. Updating my iPod via iTunes failed and now shows a permanently lit screeen witrh a white apple logo above what appears to be an empty download bar indicator.
Neither iTunes or my PC will recognise or detect it wehen commected to the USB port.
All iPod buttons are responsive, including diagnostics mode (Menu+Sleep buttons).
Any ideas/suggestions?

Hi IIIaass
That's sorted it, thanks.
I don't think I actually managed to get it into DFU mode, although not too sure what that is, but following Karthik's advice and although not quite getting the response from my iPod, as it suggested, it eventually came up with the USB piccy and iTunes icon. From there on everything fell into place and it is currently Synching with iTunes after having done a restore.
Bravo !!

This has worked for some others.
- 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.

I dropped my ipod 2nd Generation, and now the screen turned white there're many cracks in the screen. But im pretty sure the touchscreen still works. Is there any way my screen can work again? so that it isn't white? pls help

Please help

I'm in no way an iPod technician - but I have the same model as you. If you have cracks in the screen, I'm pretty sure you need to get the screen replaced. You can see what's involved by looking here:
http://www.rapidrepair.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=cp-ipodtouch2g
Unless you're already an electronic technician, you'd be better off having it repaired.
Having said that, you might compare the repair price with what a newer iPod Touch would cost you. Here's just one sample page with pricing:

If you buy a used one, it might be just a little more than the repair cost.
(.....strange - I just came here to the forum to ask a questioin about my own iPod 2nd gen device, which I might be replacing with a newer one....)

I dropped my ipod in water and now the screen wont respond to my touch, would resetting it make it work again?

I can still see everything and it's charging but I read somewhere that if I reset it that it would work again but I'm not sure if that is true and I don't know how to reset it

That happened to my mom's phone. but she dropped it in tea:( If I were you, the best bet would be to put it in a bowl of rice, so that it is covered, and leave it there for a few days. The rice will hopefully soak up all of the water that's in your iPod. Hope this helps!

My ipod got wet and now the screen does not respond to touch

i droped my ipod touch in some water and used the rice method to save it but now now it will turn on but it won't respond when i try to touch it. any ideas

Try restoring to factory defaults/new iPod. If yu still have the problem then it appears that the water damaged your iPod and service is required.

You can not merge accounts.
Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.

I dropped my phone and now the screen is going funny.

i dropped my iphone on the ground and now the screen is going funny. by that i mean it doesn't always click on the things i want and it doesn't let me unlock my phone, what should i do?

Get it fixed. Take it to an Apple Store for them to look at.
Dropping electronics on hard surfaces does have a habit of making them go "funny" - best to avoid doing that if you can.

Updated my iPod touch 3rd gen to 5.0.1 from 4.3.2 and now the screen my iPod won't work anymore. I restored it, I backed it up and I held the power and Home buttons for the reboot and still nothing. I've been looking to see if any one had the same problem and one guy did but they tOld him it was his hardware, but I don't think it was because my friend was able to get it working but it would stop working again like in 10min. So, has anyone had the same problem and can help? Please, I will greatly apretiate it. :)
