My ipod touch 4th gen. is stuck on white screen of death.

I recentally had dropped my ipod touch and when i picked it up it was stuck on the white screen of death. I tried to hard restart by holding down the power and home button at the same time, but the screen would only turn off then come right back on. Then i let the power drain. After it would no longer turn on i put it on the charger to find that the white screen would pop right back up. I didnt want to restore it but because its my only option i put it on my compute but itunes couldnt acess it because i had a passcode on it. is there a differnt way to restore it or fix it? HELLLPPP MEEEE!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

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.

My ipod touch 4th gen froze! blank white screen and doesn't respond when turned off, or connected to my laptop

my ipod touch 4th gen froze! only blank white screen and doesn't respond when turned off or connected to my laptop!

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.

Let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try what you tried already. If it still has the white screen that indicates a hardware problem an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My iPod Touch 4th gen is stuck on the screen with the iTunes logo and usb logo and it wont show up in itunes either. How do i fix it?

I forgot my passcode to my ipod so i went to restore it. When it said if i waned to restore and update that was my only option. So now i clicked that and my ipod will not leave this screen. No matter what i do. I even tried literally every step such as: the DFU mode, reinstalling itunes and the apple mobile device support, hard resetting my ipod and so many things, yet they all dont seem to help. What can i do to fix this ipod.

If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without be charged again. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

Daughter's iPod touch 4th gen is stuck in recovery mode, won't turn on after I restore it, please help...

My daughters iPod touch 4th gen is STUCK. Somehow it was disabled because of too many password attempts (my younger daughter was pushing numbers). I connected it to iTunes, did the press and hold power button + home button, then let go of sleep button. iTunes recognized it, gave me the option to restore it and did its thing. Here's the problem, now it won't GET OUT of that mode. After the first attempt, it wouldn't power on after I disconnected it from the computer. So I hooked it up again, and it says its detected an iPod in recovery mode and offers me the same "update & restore" option it did originally. Now what??? Please help. My daughter just got this two weeks ago for her birthday.

My iPod touch 4th gen is stuck in recovery mode with a broken 'lock' button.

My iPod touch 4th generation is stuck in recovery mode with a black screen and I can't get it out. It has a broken lock button and I have tried everything to get it out of recovery mode. Every time I plug it into iTunes, it recognises my iPod and says 'iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before it can be used in iTunes, so I have restored it several times and every time, it says there is an unknown error. Please Help!! (my iPod is IOS 6.0.1)

What is the complete wording of the error message that says unknown error? Usually more information like a error number is also given.

Ipod touch 4th gen is stuck in restore :(

And i have tried every single thing except for taking it for repair to the apple store because they want to charge me 35€ for that, which is absurd.
I was just playing Clumsy Ninja and suddenly my bf's iPod went white and turned off.
When I connected the device to iTunes it told me to update and restore the iPod and I was really confused because I did not do anything illegal or compromising just because I did not want to breach the warranty for it is not my iPod. So after I got from the Apple Store, I started searching on Google for answers but nothing helped. The iPod is still stuck in this restore or recovery mode whatev and I will not take it to the Apple Store unless they repair it for free. It was not my fault and therefore they do not deserve my money.
So I really need help, please tell me what to do.

HT201263 iPod touch 4th gen is stuck in recovery mode and won't restore with iTunes. Please Help!

I had jailbroken my ipod touch then decided it didnt do much of anything, so I decided to restore my ipod. But itunes didnt finish the restore and left me in recovery mode. Now it says iTunes has detected an ipod in recovery mod, but when I try to restore it, it says something like could not connect to apple restore firm and I'm back to square one.
Any Help is appreciated!

Jailbreaking
Jailbreaking voids the Apple warranty and also means that you will not get any support from Apple, including from this Apple forum. Jailbreaking can't be discussed in this Apple forum.

My ipod touch 4th gen is stuck connected to itunes

my ipod was connected to itunes but the screen is stuck with itunes and the connector showing. I have tried to reset, no luck. Any suggestions?

What happens when you connect the iPod to your computer and restore via iTunes? Error message?

My iPod touch (4th gen is stuck on the apple logo when you first turn it on?

So, my iPod has been acting weird since I updated to iOS 5.1.1 It gets fully carged and dies in three minutes. Well now it gets stuck on the apple logo at startup. It does the apple logo and shuts off and goes to the apple logo again. It does this repeatedly. Is there a way to fix this? I've tried resetting it multiple times, delete all the apps, all the music.

Hey Edgar, how exactly did you do the updates? Are you running iTunes 11.2.2? And you iPod 5 is still running iOS 6.1.2 as your tag shows? or are you running iOS 7.1.1? More info would be helpful. As Deggie asked, what was the error message, the more detailed the better. One more thing-- is this a Mac machine or a PC? Cheers.
