My ipod touch has the "white screen of death" and the thing where you press the home and power button at the same time dosent work. How do i fix it?

 

Try:

- 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 ipod touch has a white screen

    my ipod touch has a blank screen. It won't do anything. How do I fix it?

    Frequently a white screen is due to a hardware problem and service is necessary.  It appears that Apple confirmed the hadware issue.
    Apple will exchange it for this price:
    Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
    A third-party place like this one may be less expenisve.

  • 4th Gen ipod touch has a white screen

    4th Generation ipod has a white screen.  I have done the hard restart with no success.  Have attached it to the computer for a restore--it goes through the whole process and the white screen stays.  Even with the white screen, you can hear that you slide the bar to start and apps are available, but the white screen won't go away.  It is only 2 days old!!!  HELP!

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

  • My ipod touch has a white screen and it wont turn of

    I was playing a gamem and all of a sudden the screen turned white! it wont even turn of. I tryed to put it into Dfu mode and held the top button to it didnt work. so right now i left the ipod on with the white screen and i hope it will run out of battery. So can u please reply to me as soon as posible. Thank you

    Problem is I can't restore via iTunes, because when I plug the iPod touch into my laptop, it states it doesn't recognize the device - "USB device not recognized".  iTunes has no device listed for my iPod touch.
    It was plugged in all day while I was at work, could that be the problem?
    I tried to do it with the DVU method and it didn't work either.

  • Ipod touch has blank white screen

    My Ipod touch has a blank white screen. I have attempted to restore and restart. I have also reset. The touch is recognized on my itunes page. It will allow me to eject the ipod. I also put earphones on to determine whether I could hear anything (desperation). I can hear something through the speakers. Not music but kind of like dead air---a little hissing----so I know something is going on. I am confused about what to do or whether that little white screen is the beginning of the end. Any insight into my problem would be much appreciated

    Just bought a new iPod touch and I got a white scree and cannot turn it off. I have tried reset via the power and home button but still have the white screen.

  • 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?

    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.

  • 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.
