    Hi, I was using my iPod Touch and then all of a sudden, the screen went black. So I held the on/off button and menu button to reboot it. So it turned off then back on but it has been stuck on the loading page for an hour. What's wrong with it?

    - Let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try here:

  • My album artwork was in my ipod touch 5 now all of a sudden some are gone?

    my artwork was all in IPOD touch 5, then lately some is missing on the songs window but not in coverflow window, or they are missing in both??  I tried reloading the individual albums - still not showing??

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

    If i rest on my desktop all my data or gone , don't tell me back up on cloud done before and all mixed up came back include lost date so tell me something I can to in the next 30 Min since i have to sleep as well

    From what you've written I'm not entirely sure what your actual problem is, but if it's that the touchscreen isn't responding then have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • My new ipod touch screen- how to I keep it on 24/7?

    My new ipod touch screen- how to I keep it on 24/7?
    I cannot remember or find the setting that keeps my new ipod touch screen on all the time...until I want to shut it off. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

    Thanks, I set it that way in the beginning (when I bought it.) to that. I just checked again, at your suggestion and it IS set up in that manner.
    Its weird, right now it has been on screen without shutting off for an hour. However, when I first turned it on I did the slide to open, entered my 4 digit code and before I knew it it had closed the screen (shutting off).

  • Why has my ipod touch screen gone white?

  • My iPod touch screen is dark, brightness setting all the way up. how do I get it back to normal?

    My iPod touch screen is dark, brightness is completely up and can barely see it. Started all of a sudden.

    I am experiencing the same problem.  There are lots of discussion threads on this topic.  Several people have had short term luck restoring their touch or wiping it clean and starting as a new ipod again. Not a great option, but better that losing the darn thing completely.  What has worked for me several times is to power the unit down and leave it for a day or two then it seems to work again. It seems clear to me that this is not a hardware issue, as when it first powers up the screen is fine and sometimes it lasts and other times only for 5 seonds. Also since resetting the software address it, there is no problem with the hardware.  SO where is tech support in addressing this.  My gen 2 ipod no loger has any sofware updates, thanks apple! 
    Anybody found a long term fix for this???????

    My ipod touch screen is white and i dont know how to fix it i already tried home button and lock and also restarting it but it still is white, in the backgroud i can still hear the typing eventhough its all white

    Try restoring the iPod. First from backup and if problem persists, restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • My ipod touch screen is broken and whenever i press the lock screen button, the screen is white, what can i do to fix this?

    so my ipod touch screen is broken, and whenver i try to unlock the ipod screen, all that i can see is the top right hand corner of my ipod, and the rest is all whited out. Also, the jack which support the headphones to stay in place, one of the balls in the jack is pushed in which causes the headphones and stereo jack to slip all the time. I also have a problem which is when i try to sync my ipod to itunes. Last time i did it(which was 4 years ago), i synced my ipod and i started out with 225 songs, after the syncing process was complete, i ended up with 119 songs. I'm afraid to resync my ipod or back up my ipod to a computer because i dont want to lose the wonderful collection of 589 songs i have now. I'd really appreciate it if i got some feedback. Thanks.

  • Ipod touch screen went black and then started flashing. Then the turn off slide comes up.

    Ipod touch screen went black and then started flashing. Then the turn off slide comes up. Restored multiple times and didn't work. Ipod works with Itunes fine (can put music and podcasts on the ipod), but can't take songs off of the ipod. Using windows xp and everything is up to date. Any ideas of how to fix it?

    I didn't know that it was posted three times. My computer didn't say that it posted anything.
    My ipod still syncs to itunes and I can put podcasts and music on my ipod, but I can't delete songs after I put them on the ipod. When I try to delete songs I try to delete it from the main music list on the ipod. It's also doing all the other stuff that I posted before. The screen will go black and then the power off slider thing shows up for a few seconds, then it'll show the unlock slider bar. Then goes black again. It will also do that when I have the ipod unocked and changing songs or playing a game. I've restored it to the factory default/new ipod and it still does the same thing. I've uninstalled and reinstalled itunes and then restored it again to the factory default and it's still doing the same exact thing. I checked and my computer is up to date.

  • Dead iPod Touch screen

    Hi,
    my 2nd generation iPod Touch screen won't work properly (which I got a year ago along with a university special with a Macbook Pro). When I plug it to iTunes, it shows all the info thats in the iPod, but the screen would only turn bright-white for 15 seconds and then stops. It worked well when I last used it, a couple of hours ago.
    Anybody had a similar problem ?
    Thanks!

    Did you already try to reset the ipod by holding the sleep and home button until the Appl logo comes back again?

    I think you have an Accessibility feature turned on. Triple click the Home button and then try to go to Settings>General>Accessibility and turn all Accessibility features off. To scroll you may have to use three fingers. If proem see:
