My screen wont turn off

I got my ipod nano at xmas and its been perfectly fine until now. I always have the hold button when its turned off so it accidently doesnt turn back on. I put my ipod into the usb port and usually the itunes come up but it didnt all i got was my screen stuck as if its frozen and it still has the little lock symbol even when the button is off lock. The battery is really low and i dont know what to do.... PLEASE HELP!

i've had a similar problem,had my nano since september and its been fine but it wont turn off when you hold down play/pause. no matter how long you hold it down. also, usually when you unplug the headphones it automatically changes pauses then eventually switches off, it doesnt do that either. i had a problem like this with my mark 2 ipod and just hope it doesnt go the same way as that!

  • I was using my 3rd generation ipod touch and i turned it off and the loading screen wont turn off to allow my ipod to turn off, help!!

    I was using my 3G ipod touch and i slid the power off button to turn it off and the loading screen before it shuts off wont allow my ipod to turn off. i cant do anything because my ipod has the loading screen still on it. HELP!!

    Try a hard reset.  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.  Then try shutting your iPod off again.

  • Ipod screen wont turn off when recharging

    I have an 80Gig Ipod Video.
    Right now I am charging it via USB on my computer and the screen does not turn off.
    Is there something wrong with the Ipod?
    Can someone help me?
    Ive read the other threads about holding down the Menu and select button and have rebooted it several times
    As well and jostling the hold button on and off.
    Isnt the backlight supposed to turn off the screen while recharging?
    thanks for the help.

    The screen stays lit up so you can see what your ipod is doing while its plugged in. IE: OK TO DISCONNECT, or SYNC IN PROGRESS/EJECT BEFORE DISCONNECTING
    If you see the OK to disconnect text try closing itunes completely, this will let your ipod know its not in use.

  • Fascinate screen wont turn off.. draining battery

    I just recently had verizon yet again send me another fascinate. This time I updated to the newest software, did the *228 thing and still have this problem. It doesnt happen all the time but about 50% of the time when using the phone I press the button to turn off the screen and all i get is a screen capture. This happens enough to where the phone remains on even through I have the screen timer to go off in 15 sec and constantly runs the battery down. The screen only goes off if I take the back of the phone off and unplug the battery.
    anyone else having this issue?

    Hit the back button a few times and see if that helps. Mine does that from time to time, and the way I fix it is just to hit the button a couple times, and it is fine.

  • Phone screen wont turn off

    when I make a call and hold the phone up to my face the screen does not turn off and my face will hit the mute button this is a iphone5 with a lifeproof case

    Hello byoung9862,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing when on calls with your iPhone.  I recommend following the steps below for this specific issue:
    Screen will not lock or go black when answering calls
    Verify mute or speaker have not been activated, just prior to placing your ear over the receiver.
    While on a call hold your hand over the top third of the display, and verify that the screen is locked or goes to sleep.
    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.

  • Screen wont turn off. iPod and youtube wont play

    1- When not active the screen will not shut off unless I do it manually 2. In both iPod and youtube it will not play music, If I hit the play button it plays for a second then goes back on pause. I have restarted and even reset. After the reset it worked for a little bit then went back to doing the same thing.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - 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 screen wont turn on, and the screen is black. It was working fine, but then it just turned off. The only way it will work is if I close my laptop, and pinch the two screens together

  • IPhone 5 screen wont turn on. (Need help or info, please and thank you.)

    So i got an Iphone 5, and i accedently droped it in the sink. i took it out, whipped it off,  i put it in my pocket and left it alone.
    the next day the screen was not working, moments later, it(Iphon5) turned off.  tried turnng it back on but it wouldnt work.
    so, again i left it. everything still works, its just that the screen wont turn on, i could still play music snapshot stuff,
    but my screen wont tun on.
    I NEED HELP.

    I don't beleive this is a known problem and you should probably bring your phone to a local Genius Bar (make an appointment here) as this is likely a hardware issue (a problem with your phone realizing that you removed it from your ear).
    If you're willing to tinker with it a bit, you can determine if this is a software issue by backing up your iPhone (separately ensure your photos, videos and music is backed up) and then "Restore" your phone. If the restoration solves the problem, you're dealing with a software issue. If the problem still exists, you're almost definitely dealing with a hardware issue.
