  • My ipod touch has a white screen and I am unable to reset it.  Can anyone help?  I

    Hi...  any help would be appreciated.  My iPod Touch has a white screen.  I have tried resetting it following the directions on Apple's site and have not been successful.
    Can anyone help?

    Try:                                               
    - 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 another cable       
    - 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.

  • 4th Gen ipod touch has a white screen

    4th Generation ipod has a white screen.  I have done the hard restart with no success.  Have attached it to the computer for a restore--it goes through the whole process and the white screen stays.  Even with the white screen, you can hear that you slide the bar to start and apps are available, but the white screen won't go away.  It is only 2 days old!!!  HELP!

    Try starting with the bold:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

  • My ipod touch has a white screen and it wont turn of

    I was playing a gamem and all of a sudden the screen turned white! it wont even turn of. I tryed to put it into Dfu mode and held the top button to it didnt work. so right now i left the ipod on with the white screen and i hope it will run out of battery. So can u please reply to me as soon as posible. Thank you

    Problem is I can't restore via iTunes, because when I plug the iPod touch into my laptop, it states it doesn't recognize the device - "USB device not recognized".  iTunes has no device listed for my iPod touch.
    It was plugged in all day while I was at work, could that be the problem?
    I tried to do it with the DVU method and it didn't work either.

    Hello Emmuhhlieee,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iPod nano (6th generation): Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3474
    Display shows a white screen
    Try putting the iPod into disk mode:
    Reset the device (press the Sleep and Volume Down buttons simultaneously until the display turns black—about eight seconds).
    When the display turns black, hold down the Volume Down and Volume Up buttons simultaneously until the device enters Disk mode.
    While the device is in disk mode, sync it to iTunes and try to restore.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

  • MY CLASSIC HAS A WHITE SCREEN AND WILL PLAY MUSIC STILL IF YOU CAN FIND IT HOW DO I FIX THIS

    I need to get my ipod fixed ihave tried the reboot by pressing the two buttons. have also restored from itunes but it still has a white screen and the rest seems to respond if only i had a photographic memory i could still find what i need.

    Place the iPod in recovery mode using this program:

    For MAC or PC
    The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
    Then restore to factory settings/new iPod. If still problem you have a hardware problem.

  • My ipod touch has a white screen

    my ipod touch has a blank screen. It won't do anything. How do I fix it?

    Frequently a white screen is due to a hardware problem and service is necessary.  It appears that Apple confirmed the hadware issue.
    Apple will exchange it for this price:
    Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
    A third-party place like this one may be less expenisve.

  • My ipod nano has a white screen, how do i fix this?

    My Ipod nano has acted weird for the past week, then yesterday the screen goes white!! I don't know how to fix it or what to do.

    If a hard reset of the device or a restore of it via iTunes does not resolve the issue, it's likely hardware related.  Could be a damaged LCD or a loose ribbon cable that connect to your iPod's logic board.
    Either way, your iPod will need servicing in order to gain full functionality of it.

  • Ipod touch has blank white screen

    My Ipod touch has a blank white screen. I have attempted to restore and restart. I have also reset. The touch is recognized on my itunes page. It will allow me to eject the ipod. I also put earphones on to determine whether I could hear anything (desperation). I can hear something through the speakers. Not music but kind of like dead air---a little hissing----so I know something is going on. I am confused about what to do or whether that little white screen is the beginning of the end. Any insight into my problem would be much appreciated

  • My new iPod touch has a white screen and does not reset

    Just bought a new iPod touch and I got a white scree and cannot turn it off. I have tried reset via the power and home button but still have the white screen.
    Is there a quick fix or should I just return it under warranty?

    Don't mess around with it.  Return it.
