my iPod touch 3 has a blank screen (luminescent gray) and is totally unresponsive.

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.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My iPod touch has a blank screen and won't turn on. Help?

    It went blank and I've tried to restart it (pressing the home and screen buttons) but that won't work either. I've connected it to a computer but the computer doesn't recognise it. It's been an hour and it still won't work. I even tried connecting it to the portable speaker which also charge and it won't do anyhting with that eiher.
    also I'm not sure which operatine system it is. iSO something. he most recent one you can get on an iPod touch.

    1; Do a hard rest by holding the buttons at least 15 seconds. Does the Apple logo come on?
    2. Hold the power button down for at least 5 seconds. Do you see the battery symbol?
    If the answer is no to both questions, you most likely have a hardware issue--possible bad battery.

  • My second gen iPod touch has a blank screen, and won't turn on or charge in an AC outlet. When plugged into iTunes, it is completely recognized and synced, but the screen remains blank and off. What can I do?

    Hello.
    I recently woke up this morning to use my iPod Touch (2nd Gen) to find that it was completely unresponsive to both buttons and would not turn on. I had been using it the night before and had not charged it. Thinking the battery was drained, I plugged it into a wall outlet for two hours, and still no sign of life on the iPod. Plugging it into the computer, it immediately showed up in iTunes and synced normally, and even indicated it had nearly a full charge. Still, however, the screen showed nothing. I checked the lock and home buttons to see if it was stuck, but it was not. Does anyone have an idea of what this is? Do I need to get my iPod repaired? Any help would be appreciated.
    I am running iOS 4.1, and am out of warranty coverage.
    Thanks,
    - Justin

  • My Ipod Touch has Software Version 4.2.1 and says that there is no update available. Yet I see that IOS 5 is out.. Why is it that my Ipod says no update is available or that my Ipod is up to date?

    My Ipod Touch has Software Version 4.2.1 and says that there is no Update available. Yet I see that IOS 5.0 is out. Why does my Ipod say that there is no update available and my Ipod is up to date yet there is newer software available?

    Because you have an older model that is not upgradable to iOS 5.x.

    If it's not damaged (water, fallen, etc.), you will have warranty if you bought it less than one year ago.
    Visit your local Apple Store or Apple Premium Reseller to let them repair (actually replace, in most cases) your phone.
