IPod screen has turned white. Screen is faintly visible and still works, but is almost impossible to see. Tried restore, and Home/Power/Volume reset.

The screen is a very bright white, but buttons are faintly visible. When I do anything with the screen, it creates an "afterimage" that lasts about a minute - e.g. swiping through homepages leaves multiple homepages superimposed over the current one. I've reset several times, and done a full restore. No changes.
I took a screenshot, and it looked completely normal on my PC - problem is with the screen itself.
4th gen iPod with latest software update. 1 year and 1 month old. I have never dropped it, or gotten it wet, or anything that could damage or break the iPod... the screen just changed.

Have you tried the troubleshooting here:

Thanks.

My iPod Touch 4G's screen has gone white and has lines on the screen. How do I fix it? Help!

Hello everyone,
I've had an iPod Touch 4th generation for a few years now, and, today, for the first time, the screen has gone white and their are vertical lines on it. What happened was I accidentally dropped my iPod Touch on tile and it landed on its back. I tried it out right afterwards to see if it was still working and it seemed like it was perfectly fine. Later on, I got an email from one of my friends, so I slid the email button on the lock screen to see the email. In the email, there was a link to a gif image, so I opened it in Safari. After I was done with it, I closed that tab. I also had a second tab open from earlier, so I wanted to close that tab as well. When I clicked on the button to see all tabs and close one, the screen completely froze. I held on to the on/off button on the top of the iPod, and, after about a minute, the screen switched to a completely white screen with lines on it. I've tried holding onto the on/off button again and it doesn't work. I also tried plugging it into my Windows 7 computer and opening iTunes, but my computer doesn't even recognized it is plugged in. It won't appear under the "computer" section in Windows Explorer, which will allow me to do USB-related tasks with it. iTunes doesn't recognize that it is plugged in either, so I can't do anything like restore the iPod to factory settings. The home button on my iPod hasn't been working for a while so i've always been using the accessibility feature that gives me a home button on the screen. Now that I can't access that, I can't hold down both the on/off button and the home button at the same time. What should I do? Should I send it in to Apple for repairs (which I won't do and would rather buy a new iPod Touch)? I am thinking of just leaving it to, hopefully, have the battery drain and the iPod would die. Then, I could charge it and see what happens. Other than that, i'm just clueless right now and I have no idea what I should do. Please help me!
My iPod Touch is an iPod Touch 4th generation model with 8GB. It is running iOS 5.1.1.

- Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear. (For iOS 6, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.) Relaunch the App and try again.
- Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
- Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
- Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
- Delete the App, then reinstall it.
Test the issue after each step. Make sure to quit the app as described before each followup step.

My iPad has turned off and i can't turn it on again

My iPad has turned off and i can't turn it on again even when I click on the turn on bottom and the iPad is charged

Have you tried a soft-reset to see if that gets it to boot up ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds after which the Apple logo will hopefully appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

My IPOD screen is zoomed in and I can't zoom it out.

It's my son's ipod and he was watching utube videos and all of a sudden it zoomed in and got stuck. I can't seem to zoom it back out. It has a screen lock on it and we can't even put in the code to unlock because it is zoomed in to far. I've reset the ipod a couple of times. I've hooked up to itunes and updated it as well as backed up the info and had it restore and it still isn't working. Any suggestions, help? Thanks!

Try here:
iPhone and iPod touch: Home screen icons are magnified or large
Double tap with three finger to get to normal screen and then go to Settings>General>Accessabilty and turn Zoom off.
