  • After the most recent update, the screen went white on my touch. Any one else have this prob?

    After recent update of my 4th gen iPod touch, the screen went white. I can still see the background a little but, there is a screen "burn in" as well. I restored it but it did nothing to fix it. AHHHH!

    That happens sometimes.
    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 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.

  • My daughter tried to open a game on her Ipod touch and the screen went white and I can't get it to do ANYTHING...I've tried holding the sleep/wake button and it does NOTHING, still only a white screen.

    My daughter tried to play the My Horse game on her Ipod touch that she got for Christmas and when she opened the game it said something about sending "push notifications" and gave the choice of "don't allow" or "ok"...we chose "don't allow". After that the screen went white and now we cannot get the Ipod touch to respond to anything. I tried holding the sleep/wake button to try to restart it and it doesn't seem to work. Any suggestions to get this device working again???

    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 that doesn't work, try a Restore:
    From iTunes, select the iPad 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.
    There's more that you can do.  Post back if none of the above solves the problem.
    By the way, I always allow "push."  That allows the app developer to "push" information to your device rather than waiting for you to ask for it.  However, "don't allow" shouldn't cause the problem that you're experiencing.

  • My ipod touch screen went white and when i plug it into my computer....nothing happens.  help!

    I went to turn on my iPod Touch one day and the screen went white.  Tried resetting and got nothing.  Tried plugging in to usb port and got nothing.  Neither the computer nor iTunes recognizes my device.  What do I do now?

    By resetting did you see the apple logo? Try pressing and holding the on/off and home buttons simultaneously until the screen goes blank (black) and you see the apple logo. It should take about 10-15 seconds to reset.

  • HT1349 My iPod touch 4g's screen went white and now it won't reboot or connect to iTunes

    I was just on my Facebook app and then I clicked on a link. It's a link that doesn't usually do anything to my iPod. Then, the screen went white. This sort of happened the other day, too. I've tried to reboot it several times, but it won't do anything. It won't connect to iTunes, either. What can I do?

    Try posting in the iPod forum. This is the iPhone forum.

  • I just got a new docking system so i plugged it in and put in my ipod, then straight away my screen went white and now its not doing anything! please help!!

    ! just got a new docking system so i plugged it in to my computer because it wasnt the wall charge type, so I put in my ipod, then straight away my screen went white and now its not doing anything! i press the home and lock button nothing happens... then i plug it in my computer it doesnt come up in itunes or even the copmuter. please help i can not live with out my ipod!

    Your post is abit confusing, especially on getting those weird messages and emails,( assumed in your Windows machine.)
    Most likely you have Restored the iPod using the new Macbook pro, using the same name as that in your Windows machine, hence the duplicate name warning, as it is trying to sync Automatically.
    If you are syncing your iPod to both the Mac and Windows, you must set it to Manually Manage Music, in the first machine that you setup iTunes with the iPod. Read thsi Apple Support Article
    In iTunes, Preference, tick on Prevent devices syncing automatically
    Hopefully your music are still in both your iTunes library,
    Connect the iPod to the Mac
    Restore it (just to fix any filesystem corruption by the Windows end)
    Set it to Manually Manage Music
    Sync your selected songs in your library.
    Whern sync complete, Eject it
    Connect it to your Windows PC.
    Select the song in the library
    Sync it.
    It should work if your ipod Hardisk is not giving any problem.
    Good luck!

    Clearly, it's not inexpensive.  You might wish to try a few things yourself.
    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."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

  • While updating my ipod i noticed that my ipod had froze at the end of it, i then decided to restart it. It began to restart and then the screen went white then restarted itself again and has been on this loop everytime i go to use it. How can i stop this?

    Hi, when i was updating my ipod last night i had noticed it had been doing it for a while. I then realised that it had froze so i just thought to restart it. When I did this it restarted normally by having the apple icon appearing, then the screen went white for a few seconds and the ipod then turned off. Before i even touched another button the ipod restarted again and the white screen appeared again and this has been on a continuse loop everytime I touch a button on my ipod since last night. Please tell me that someone knows what to do!!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.

  • My iPod touch's power button got stuck and then the screen went white.

    My iPod touch 4G was a great device, until I stopped using it when iOS 7 came out back in 2013. Then eventually I got back to using it and then one day the power button started acting a little bit funny and then the entire button got stuck in the device. Eventually I tried to fix it so I opened up the screen and tried pushing the button back up. Then the worst happened, I touched something behind the screen and then the screen froze. Then the screen went white. I could do nothing as the power button was stuck in the device. Then it just sat there, white, until it died a few hours later. So heres my question,
    What do I do?

  • Hi something happened to my ipod the  screen went white

    hi something went wrong with my ipod the screen went white because of an app

    There's a couple of things you can do.
    First Hold the off button for a long time.
    If this fails then go onto your iTunes on your computer and restore your iPod. Don't choose the restore to factory settings option.
    If this fails go into the App Store and ask for assistance from them. You have to book an appointment.
    Hope I could help.
