My ipod wont display anything, just a black screen.

i took it off of the charger yesterday and the display wouldnt work, i tried resetting it, but my laptop wont recognise it and i cant tell if it's charging anymore

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.

Leave it alone for an hour and try the reset procedure again. Make sure you're using a genuine Apple charger & cable in a known good wall outlet. You can also try another cable if necessary, and make sure the charging area is clean and free of fluff & debris.

Ipod wont do anything.

My ipod wont do anything! I go to turn it on and it just stays on the apple logo screen, and I can't do anything. When i plug it into the computer it still just stays at the apple logo. The ipod dont show up in itunes or on my desktop. I tried reseting it and it turns of and then comes right back on and freezes on the apple screen. After being plugged into the computer for awhile it will go to that little disc thingy with the bar at the bottom loading, which means its checking for whats wrong and stuff but after its done it shows the disc with a little checkmark by it. Anyway please help!

Zen vision :M wont display anything when on & computer cannot recogn

my?zen vision :M wont display anything when?i turn it on & my computer cannot recognise it... no my lcd isnt imploded or damaged...
p.s. the buttons wont even glow when on plz help

Are you sure it's turning on? If the display isn't turning on and the buttons don't light up, it sounds like the player isn't powering on at all. Do you hear it playing music?
Have you tried leaving the player charging for a few hours, and then checking if it starts up on the PC? When it's turned on, does the system recognise it at all, does it see an unknown device for instance?

Connect the iPod to a charging source and then try the will not turn on topic of:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
If you have a 2G iPod and did not have the iPod connected to a charging source it is likely that the battery fully drained before the erase was complete since it can take hours to do the delete.

ITunes purchased shows do not playback just a black screen

My wife and son are leaving tomorrow to ME. We purchased ~1$12 worth of shows. They playback in iTunes application but do not playback on her iPod video 30GB and she is running 1.1.2 firmware.
You can select the video and feel the drive queueing it up but just a black screen is displayed. I have other videos I have converted myself and they work fine.
Any ideas on what causes this?

My camera is not working, just a black screen, won't take pics please help

WWhy won't my camera take pics..just a black screen ?

CClose the camera app and reset the iPad.
In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
Next, reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Plug in your phone and launch iTunes on the computer. Then in the sidebar look for something about an iPhone. Click it and set up your iPhone. Has this iPhone ever been synced with another computer?

TS3354 I downloaded a movie but when I play it, it's just a black screen

I downloaded a movie on my iPad but when I go to play it, it's just a black screen. The whole entire movie is just a black screen.

Hi, Ktjayne05.
I would recommend closing any open applications in multitasking and restarting the device. If unfamiliar with multitasking, I have included a screenshot on how to process an application close. Test playing the movie after processing these steps.
If the movie still displays a black screen, I would recommend deleting the movie and downloading it again free of charge by accessing your purchases via the iTunes Store.
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
