My ipod touch won't turn on at all it goes from a black screen to a white screen for a short while?

My ipod screen wont turn on it just stays on a blank screen and sometimes a white screen comes up

Try:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
If you can't fully turn the iPod off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try again.
If not success then time for an appointment at the genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • My 1st generation Ipod touch won't turn on at all and whenever I press the buttons to reset it all I get is a white screen, or a white screen with black lines across.

    You can work through the five 5 R's of troubleshooting to rule out the possibility of corrupted software.

    It might also be a good idea to let the iPod's battery fully drain. Then charge it back up and restore it once more in iTunes.
    Otherwise, it's likely a hardware issue with the iPod's LCD display, meaning you'll need to take or send your iPod in for service either via Apple or a third party repair service. Here is Apple's repair pricing.

    Note that they don't actually repair the device, but exchange it for one of the same generation, model, and capacity.  A third party service will actually replace the damaged part for a little less.  Google "iPod screen repair" and you should get a number of results to work with.

    Hi, my 4th generation iPod touch won't turn on. I lost it for about a year, and I plugged it in and it wouldn't turn on. Please help!
    ~Thanks

    Make sure it's fully charged. Hold the Sleep/Wake + Home buttons down (at least 15-seconds) until Apple logo lights up. If that does not work, you may need a new battery.

  • My iPod Touch won't turn on, why?

    My iPod touch won't turn on. It all of a sudden turned off and will not come back on no matter what I do. I've tried holding the lock and home button in at the same time, I've tried charging it all day and I've tired pluging it into my MacBook and reseting it but none of that works. Please help, thank you.

  • My iPod Touch won't turn on or sync to my computer...

    My iPod Touch won't turn on or sync to my computer... When I hook it up the apple icon just comes on but nothing more, my battery isn't shot because when I take it off the power, it will just stay on till the battery dies.... Any suggestions??

    you might have to restore your ipod. you need to turn off your ipod and then hold down the home button while plugging it in to your computer (dont turn it on just hold down the home button).

  • My ipod touch won't turn on anymore!!!

    MY IPOD TOUCH WON'T TURN ON ANYMORE!!
    I don't know what happened. but I am beginning to think apple is ripping me and everyone off.
    I don't know why I paid about 200-300 dollars for this iPod to be frozen or not turn on anymore!
    When I downloaded Currency converter pro, it just froze my ipod.
    Either it's that problem, or something is wrong.
    I never dropped it in water or anything bad.
    PLEASE HELP.

    Have you've tried holding down the power button for several seconds?
    If so and you're still getting nothing you may have to do a hard restore.
    here's how to do it on Mac OS:
    1. Connect you're iPod to the computer with the sync cable, and open iTunes.
    2. Hold down the power and home buttons for 10seconds, then release the power button (continue holding the home button for about another 6-8 seconds). iTunes should display a message stating that the iPod is in restore mode and needs to be restored before it can be used (or something to that effect).
    3.Hitting the restore button will likely give an error message. You'll need to hold down option and click the restore button, which will bring up a file browser. Navigate to *<your user name>/Library/iTunes/iPod Software Updates/* and choose iPod2,12.2.1_5H11aRestore.ipsw (or similar ipsw file depending on your ipod, or iphone, generally choose the newest one) and click open.
    4. Wait for it to restore, when that's finished you should be able to further restore it using the backup that was generated when you last synced it.
    I have never done this on windoze, but I imagine it's quite similar, just not sure where you'd find the ipsw file.

  • My ipod touch will not turn on at all.

    For some reason, my ipod touch will not turn on at all. It has no water damage, and for whatever reason, iTunes does not recognize it at all, and it will not turn on. I have even tried resetting it by holding the sleep button and home screen. How can I fix this?
