my i-pod touch 4g is frozen on a blank white screen how can i unfreeze it ?
- Try a reset.
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.
- Connect to computer. If shows in iTunes restore
- If still white, let battery fully drain. Charge for an hour and then try the above again.

My i pod touch crashed and is displaying a blank yellow screen and won't turn off what can i do?
My I pod crashed and now displays a blank yellow screen i can't switch it off what can I do.
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. -
Ive restored it but it hasn't been working. When I press the unlock button it turns white. This happens usually always but sometimes if I get lucky it'll work fine. I got this iPod off amazon and that is how it came. Any suggestions?!
I've done that multiple times but it doesn't fix it, because when it's back on, the problem happens again. I've even called Apple and they told me to restore it, and I did, but still nothing changed, exept that I've lost everything on my Ipod Touch.

Ipod frozen on a blank white screen
I have a 60 gig ipod video and when I turn it on it shows only a white screen. When I reset it, the white sreen comes on again. I've connected the ipod to my computer but itunes is not recognizing it. What does this mean?
Any help here?

my ipod touch 4th gen froze! only blank white screen and doesn't respond when turned off or connected to my laptop!
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again. -

Connect the iPod to its syncing computer and restore via iTunes. If iTunes asks for the passcode and you can't enter the passcode or you do not have the syncing computer, place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore. For recovery mode see:

How can I unfreeze my Macbook Air? I have tried restarting but it simply opens on the frozen email page.
I have tried a few multople key combinations. I would be very grateful if someone could post one that might ensure that any applications quit before re-starting.Try Force Quit.
Press command + option + esc keyboard keys together at the same time.
Wait.
When Force Quit window appears, select Mail if not already.
Press Force Quit button at the bottom of the window.
Wait.
Mail will quit. -

Ipod Touch 1st generation: blank white screen - I tried holding both buttons and connecting it to the computer, restoring it, and still nothing. What else can I do? I did not drop it in water.

My Ipod-touch was ios5 when I bought. You recommend to upgrade ios6, because set-up icon always shows me "+". For that on facebook I can't see wall photos. So I want my ipod touch to be back as initial version ios5. How can I do? please tell me.
Unfortunately, I don't think it solved the problem. I believed the new iPod thing solved the weird behavior problem, but after that the button stopped working.
Do you know how to contact Genius? Because I don't think I can find a store in my area, when I tried to. -
My cursor has frozen on a word document - how can I unfreeze it without closing or force quitting Word? I am a writer and have multiple documents going at any one time - I think this may be partly the cause for the freeze. I would rather not force quit because there are too many documents that may have been added to that weren't saved. Im not so keen on the auto recovery process Please help!! Aussie OSX 10.8.5 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7 Memory 4GB 1333 MHz DDR3.
If you click outside a Word document, is the cursor movement normal? And if you select Force Quit does the tag next to Word say "Not Responding"?
I'm afraid that the only way to get out of your predicament is to Force Quit Word. If you had auto-save on, you may or may not be able to recover some of your documents. I sometimes have up to 12 Word documents or so loaded at one time, so your problem shouldn't be put down to you having multiple documents open.
Sorry that I couldn't really help - I just don't see any way of getting out of your predicament. You MAY want to try pressing the command and period keys at the same time, but I really don't think that will stop anything.

I have tried to do a hard reboot and restore several times to my ipod touch. I cannot get beyond the white screen. Any suggestions>
If you successfully restored the iPod to factory settings/new iPod (went through all the steps without errors), then time for an appointment a the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

ive got a new pc with windows 7 and my ipod touch 4th gen is synced with my old pc ,how can i back up the photos and music on the ipod to my new pc ?
Your iPod can only be synced with one computer at a time. If you try to sync it with a new computer/iTunes library, it will replace the contents of the iPod with whatever is in the new library. You should probably disable the autosync functionality first by going to Edit -> Preferences, clicking the Devices tab, and enabling the prevent iPods,iPhones, and iPads from automatically syncing option.
Before doing anything else, authorize the new computer with your iTunes Account. In iTunes, choose Store -> Authorize This Computer and enter in the correct credentials. Either copy a backup file from your old computer to your new one or create a new backup of your iPod in iTunes before letting it sync.
Then right->click on your iPod Touch from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes and choose Backup. You might also want to take a look at this article to see what it all included in the backup.
iOS: How to back up
Now onto synced content such as music, videos, photos, etc. For iTunes purchases you can copy them back into iTunes by choosing File -> Transfer Purchases. For all other nonpurchased iTunes content such as music, videos, and photos synced to the device, see this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering different software available to assist you with this task.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2452022?start=0&tstart=0
Once the backup has been made and all other synced content such as music, videos, and photos are back in your iTunes library, restore your iPod from that backup you made earlier. Here is more on backing up and restoring your iPod.
iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software
If you do happen to lose any purchased content, you can always redownload it from the iTunes Store again at no cost via iCloud. See this article for information.
