My iPod has a white screen, but still works

I dropped my iPod, and i resseted it once, and i could hear the clicky noise the touch pad makes. so i mashed buttons and a song came on. It works, but the screens still white. I restored, still white. Tried the Disk Mode, but i can't see a **** thing. Help

Hello,
It sounds like iPod was damaged when you dropped it. The blank white screen is the most common side effect of damage by dropping. Unfortunately the only solutions are to either have it repaired or buy another one and keep it in a ruggedized case. XtremeMac makes the best ones.

  • My iPod has a white screen.  After holding down the middle and the menu button it goes black, then back white, and then beeps twice but stays white.  It never shows the apple logo, just stays white - help!

    My iPod has a white screen.  After holding down the middle and menu button, the screen goes black then back to white and beeps twice.  I have returned to original settings and resorted content to no avail.  I still have a white screen.  I have plugged it up and tried resetting again and again, still a white screen with two beeps - help.

    I have the same exact issue. Fifth generation iPod Nano, blank screen, Restore had no effect. I'm running Windows 7 Home, with all software up-to-date. I suspect hardware damage. Any clarification would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

    Let the battery fully drain. After charging for an hour 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 and try to retore.
    - If the screen remains white and you can't trun it off then it is time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. You very likely have a hardware problem.

  • My IPOD has a white screen and I've restarted it and restored it many times I NEED HELP!

    My IPOD 4th Gen. Has now got a white screen. It was in my backpack all day so it might have overheated. Its happened before but it went away within 10 minutes to 1 day. Its been 2 days and it hasn't been fixed. I need my IPOD for things. I have pictures, songs, notes, videos, etc. I really need my IPOD fixed. Can anyone help? It has a white screen but I can still do things like button wise. I can unlock it and click the apps but it just stays white screen!

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.

    This forum category (where your question appeared) is for iPod shuffle, which has no screen.  What iPod model do you have?
    When you connect the iPod to your computer, and run iTunes, the iPod does not appear in the sidebar, under DEVICES?
    At one point i got a message that it was corupted.
    Where and when did this message appear?

  • Ipod shows a white screen but  it still connects to my computer

    Today I was silly enough to drop my Ipod accidentally on the ground (by accident of course) though not very hard, when I turned it back on a white screen shows up. However I can still reset it but it still shows up as a white screen. When I plug the Ipod into my computer Itunes still picks it up and all of my songs & albums show up still. When I take the Ipod out it's still a white screen. I've tried resetting the thing many times but still no luck. What should I Do? Does anyone still think there may be hope restoring this?

  • Ipod has only white screen. reset

    Ipod (4th gen) just went blank/white screen. Pressed menu & center and apple logo appears and was able to reset. Used after few minutes, screen when blank again. Able to reset & resync many times and can hear music but still white screen being displayed.

    You could always try to restore the iPod. If that doesn't resolve the problem you'll have to have the iPod serviced.
