My iPod touch 4th gen has the white screen of death and won't connect to iTunes to restore.
I was updating from iOS 6 beta 1 to beta 2 when my ipod froze up and started showing the white screen of death. I've tried the trick where you hold the power and home button for ten seconds and tried to put it in DFU mode to restore. None of these tricks work and my screen is still white. Also I plug it into my Windows Vista computer with iTunes 10.6.3 but it wont show up. I really need help. I don't have warranty or money to buy a new one. My grandmother will heartbroken if $200 goes down the drain.
Im not developer and I have ios 6 click this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHvf6Wty0nk&feature=plcp but anyway try putting it into dfu

What should i do if my ipod touch 4 gen. has a white screen and it goes away rarely. Should i return it and get a new one?
If the problem persits after restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod then you likely have a hardware problem. In that case an appointment at the Genius Bar of an apple store or returing it to Apple is in order.

IPod nano 4th gen stuck on White Screen of Death
So recently my iPod of 4 years has gotten the white screen of death.
I tried doing the restarting. You know. hold the on/off button then hold MENU and SELECT. Nothing. It just blinks the white screen off and then on.
Interest to note: I use my ipod nano in the shower (with dock). Maybe the steam from the shower had something to do with it?
Anyway, thank you.I should note that I CAN still use this ipod. I can play songs on it EVEN while my screen is white. Also, when I plug it into my Win7 (32-bit), the iTunes (latest version 1.0.4) recgonizes my ipod and play the songs/playlist from it.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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.

It wont charge but it is syncing, I recently updated Itunes, and the charging icon shows up on iTunes
Did you try another USB port or the wall adapter, or another USB cable?
Also see if a reset may help. To reset the iPod hold the sleep and home button for about 10 sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data doing a reset. -
i have and ipod touch 4th gen that has the white screen of death but my home button doesnt work. how do i reset it?
Restore, if iTunes will let you. Everything except the password will be restored. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. Be forewarned that it takes a long time. 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."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. -
ive just updated my ipod touch 4th gen, but the bat went flat now its just a white screen and when i plug it into my laptop nothing happenes
Hello,
This will fix your problem!
To put the device in DFU mode,
1. Connect the device to iTunes
2. Hold both the power button and the home button down simultaneously
3. After 10 seconds, release the power button but leave the home button pressed
4. iTunes should then recognize that the device has entered DFU mode and ask to restore.
That should get you back on your way.

Yhey,im wondering if there is any way to track down or finf ipod touch 4th gen. through the serial number?
No, the only way to track it is "Find My iPhone". And the app has to be installed and activated before your device is lost.

I have an ipod touch 4th gen, installed the latest update to iOS 6 and have lost all my music, apps etc. It also linked up with an alternate email address???? Help!
I have a similar issue happenning with my ipod touch 64GB running IOS 6.0.1. My music content is stored via itunes on my Snow Leopard macbook pro as well (and not in the cloud). The music on my ipod (which is sync'd to my macbook pro when I connect via usb) has randomly disappeared about 3 or 4 times lately, not during sync'ing and unrelated to battery charge levels. Fortunately I have been able to restore it by restarting my macbook pro then re-syncing the ipod, which it is now doing as I write, but it takes hours (for over 3000 songs). Having looked at a few other forum discussion pages, it seems this may be a bug related to IOS 6 updates and using music/itunes and podcast playing apps. The same thing has intermittently occurred with some other content such as downloaded podcasts, iplayer content and photos. Once I reconnected the ipod it synced and apparently restored the content, but I can't understand why it lost it in the first place, and its very annoying. Lets hope the reinstalling works on my ipod tonight....up to 248 of 3326 songs syncing as I write....

I just bought a new Retina Display macbook pro, and I plugged in my iPod touch (4th gen) into the new computer, but it will not show up, even after I typed in the passcode. How do I get my iTouch to sync with my new computer without restoring my itouch?

I got my screen fixed and the day i got my ipod touch 4th gen back the wifi doesnt work unless i hold it right up to my router. Roughly every foot I move back it loses a bar and if i leave the room it doesn't even have a signal completely. Could the screen replacement have tampered with the wifi capability? Also if it helps I switched internet providers and during the time when my ipod was being fixed a new router was installed and it doesnt seem to work unless directly infront of my ipod.
Take it back to where you had the screen replaced. They messed up the connection to the wifi antenna

I am trying to sync an ipod touch 4TH gen. The capacity bar at the bottom shows I am adding 22.29g with 6.5 g free. Yet every time I try to sync it warns that there is not enough room an additional 868.9m is still needed. Does the capacity bar tend to be wrong or am I missing something?
Well when all else fails do a restore! This fixed my problem. Still don't know why the content bar differed, but what the hey!

I was in Aussie last month and dropped my iPod Touch (4th Gen) on the road. The screen was cracked on the top left-hand corner (where the wireless area is). The screen got fixed but the wireless stopped working. So I am wireless-less... I bought it last July and its still under warranty, but can I still claim a repair on it?
No because it was physical damage
