My ipod 4g has a frozen white screen and will not turn off, any advice?
My daughter's ipod 4th gen (only 4 months old, bought direct from Apple) suddenly has a frozen white screen and will not turn off. We cannot reboot it by pushing and holding the two buttons, even when held up to one full minute. When we plug it into the computer, the computer does not recognise it nor does iTunes, so we can't even do a full system restore. Help! Any suggestions of how we can reset to factory settings without using iTunes please?
- Let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try :
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My daughter was playing on her Ipod Touch when the screen went white. It will not turn off or do anything. Has anyone else had this problem and know what may work?
The same thing just happened to my new ipod today while i was trying to use an app. A lot of people say that it is caused by an ios update, but I let the battery on my ipod drain until it turned off. Once i charged it, it turned on and is working normally again

My iPod has a flickering black screen and will not turn on. What can I do?
I accidentally left my iPod in my car for a few hours. It reached about 80 degrees outside, so I am worried. It did not turn on at all. Afterwards, I let it cool down and it still will not turn on. I plugged it into my laptop (PC) and it still does nothing. If flickers between two shades of black, but it does not do anything. I am starting to think it may have affected the battery. I have been experiencing problems with it not wanting to turn on without being plugged in for months now, but I did not really do anything about it.
I need help. I do not know what to do, so any form of help will be greatly apreciated!I was afraid of this, to be honest. I kind of figured that I broke it completely.
I no longer have a warranty on it because I have had it for about three years, so I do not even know if it is worth taking in or if I would be better off with buying a new one.
If I were to replace the battery, would that help with the display or would it still be flickering a black screen?
* Sidenote: I do not like that I am not too savvy when it comes to Apple products, so I apolgize if it seems like I am repeating myself or sound confusing. -
Help! White screen and will not turn on again!
Can anyone please help?
My phone is suffering from the infamous white screen of death about once a day now. The only response I can then get from it is if I do a battery pull. When I return the battery the phone starts to reboot but never finishes and just turns off and is unresponsive to any buttons. The only way I have found to remedy this is by charging the phone. It then turns on as normal. I will make a point of noting that my phone is never out of battery when this happens. When I go to charge it, it starts off at whatever percentage of full it was previously on.
However, carrying around a phone charger and power source is a poor solution to this problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
ClaireHey clmcguin,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
I would suggest to do a clean reload of the device software as shown here: http://btsc.webapps.blackberry.com/btsc/KB11320, please test before restoring any data to the device.
Thanks.

My ipod only goes to the apple screen and freezes then turns off after about a minute. Is this fixable?
Try a system reset. 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. -
