My iPod 6th Generation has a blank white screen and is apparently corrupted

I have tried restoring, and just don't know what else to do, pleeaase help!
Also, what happened to cause this? Is it the iPod? Or computer? (Macbook Pro)

Have you tried a reset or restore of the device in iTunes to see if that helps?  To reset the device, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
Otherwise, connect the iPod to your iTunes library and click the Restore button from under the iPod's Summary tab.
If the issue still persists, it's likely hardware related. A white screen could be the result of a loose LCD ribbon cable, or a damaged LCD screen.  Either way you'll need to have the iPod serviced in order to gain fully functionality of it again.

  • My ipod touch 8gb has a blank white screen what do i do

    hello i need help with my ipod touch 8gb 3rd geniration i dont no how to spell gen. because the screen turned white when i did nothing i tried pushing the awake/sleep  button with the home menu buttton it did not work eny ideas

    Please don't use the over-sized bolded font.  It's annoying and, honestly, offensive.
    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."

  • 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?

    I used to install the rEFIt to boot with win7. When I deleted win7, I didn't uninstall rEFIt. Nothing wrong with it. One day after I watched movie in full screen,I pressed esc to quit. Then I found the touchpad didn't work. I can't turn off air. I just pressed power button for a little while. It rebooted, then my nightmare just began...
    I have tried everything, PRAM, command+R, literally everything. No change.
    But when I plug a CD-ROM with USB, I can only here one BONG, just once, then white screen, Like waiting for something...
    I took it to a service center in China, they told me the CPU had broken. SInce it's one month out of warranty, they wanted to charge me for like $250....
    I really don't think that's CPU's problem. I checked the history, it seems like somebody else also had the problem before.
    Can anyone give me some hints??? Thanks!!!!!! Or I have to take it back to America to check....

    Impossible, there are zero, as in none, zip, nadda viruses for OS X. If you have viruses on it they are for MS Windows and will not affect OS X. I suspect the hard disk has crashed, if you have backup then it's not a big deal to have it changed, just take it into your local Apple Store or AASP for service. If you have not been backing it up you may be in for a painful lesson on why backup is critical.
