Place to fix iPod video screen bleeding?

Hi. I had dropped my iPod video, which resulted in the screen bleeding. I called up Apple, but it wasn't covered under the warranty. Does anyone know of a website or store that would be able to fix this? Thanks.

  • Cracked iPod video screen

    I've bought my son iPod video 30G last Christmas. Yesterday he found iPod screen cracked and not working. He said he didn't do anything but keeping it in his backpack. I took it to "Smart" bar at the store where I bought it and got the worst experience. The "Smart" guy in that store kept saying about the limited warranty which does not cover the damage done by abuse and offering best option like recycling the four-month old iPod 30Gig and geting 10% discout for new purchase. He said it even cannot be repaired. Does it make any sense to anybody??
    I've searched online and found there are tons of complains about fragile iPod video screen and Apple hasn't done anything about this inherent defect yet. Let me ask Apple company the question. Is it really only the user's fault? Is it fair to blame the customers only and even refusing the repair? I guess you should have clearly posted the statement like "the screen is extremely fragile, so please put it in hard-shell case not to break it" in the user manual.
    So, good lesson, everyone. Don't waste your $300 for this poor material.

    trust me if ipod screens were really that fragile i'd have broken one by now.
    I like have the worst care for electronics ever.
    let's see i've had three ipod's. my mom said she'd buy me a new one if i'd let her have my old one. that one still works. the next one suffered a corrupted harddrive. and my third one still works. it had better i only got it christmas.
    anyway, at multiple times i have sat on dropped and banged against things each one of these ipods.
    trust me if ipod screens were really that fragile i'd have broken one by now.
    I did have a theory about this though. the accidental breaking.
    this depends on the supposed idea that the front cover of the ipod is a layer of glass and one of plastic.
    there may be a thin layer of air or moisture trapped between the two layers and when moved from intense cold to heat. the air or moisture expands and causes the material to break.
    note the last science class i took was high school chem and i got a D. so no you can't take this to the bank, probably.
    and that class was probably graded on a curve.

  • SCRATCHED MY IPOD VIDEO SCREEN..HOW TO FIX?!

    I've just purchased a 30gb ipod video, along with a skin. While i was putting on the skin, it roughly damaged the screen and scratched it. I am very dissapointed for the screen is suppose to prevent scratches, but while putting it on. It actually created a big scratch and smudges on it. And it is quite unbearable to watch videos with it. Does anyone know how to remove, or if the apple warranty covers it?

    I have had success removing scratches with Brasso and a cotton ball. It takes a bit of effort. Wait until the Brasso dries then wipe it off with a face cloth, then buff with a microfine cloth.

  • Ipod video screen discoloration?

    im not sure if this is normal or not so im checking. i have a 5g 30g ipod video. when i hold the screen at a slight angle, i see a big rainbow colored spot. when you look head on you dont see it but then if you angle it slightly it catches your eye. its actually bugs you after a while. the spot is in the bottom middle half of the screen. A defect maybe? does anyone else know anything about this???

    Yeah I've noticed that too; Don't worry it's normal, I went to the Apple store and all their iPods have that rainbow; don't let it bug you.

  • 30GB iPod Video Screen Replacement

    I have a fifth generation 30GB iPod Video and it's really scratched up.
    It's weird because it was in a hard case and they both got scratched, but it's like it was with sandpaper...well that doesn't matter.
    Ok, so it's scratched a was on eBay looking at iPod accesories (cheaper there) and there were these iPod screen replacements that came with a tool and manual too. It's $15 so I was gonna get it but does anyone know if that's just junk and if it will mess up my iPod because now I can only watch videos when I'm in a dim room. It's really annoying and I need someone's help. Thanks! ^_^

    no, i never broke my LCD screen but i had a friend that broke her nano and she sent it here and got it back with no problems..just a new LCD screen!

  • IPod Video Screen tint

    Just bought two identical iPod videos. One unit has a noticable difference in the tint of the screen when next to the other--especially in the white areas. It has a "browner" hue than the other. Has anyone else noticed this? I might have to return the unit for a replacement.

  • Black line on my ipod video screen

    hey im having problems with the screen of my ipod video, it has a black line in the middle of it and it is very strange, i stays when i try to see videos.

    I posted this response to you in another thread that you mentioned this in. Out of curiosity, if this began months ago why didn't you contact Apple about it? At that time it probably would have been a little more feasible to believe that it was something that randomnly occured rather than some sort or "human" caused screen damage.
    Sounds like your screen sustained some sort of damage (similar to what would happen if your LCD screen cracked). This could have happened in different ways. If you carry it in your pocket or in a bag/purse and something heavy put pressure on it...the screen itself may not have any physical cracks. You can try and see if Apple will cover that under warranty but I wouldn't hold my breath. It doesn't seem like something that would easily occur by itself like a product defect. How long have you had your iPod and when did this occur?

  • Is there a way to fix ipod touch screen display problem with song list?

    I was wondering if anybody has had this problem? I have an ipod touch 64gig 5th gen for probably about 2 years. I hardly use it because I have it as a back up ipod until primary one dies. This is the first time I came across this problem. Upon turning on device, the first artist/song list I choose displays correctly. Once I start choosing any other artist/song list afterwards, the display for the 1st artist/song list re-appears. If the song list is only a single song to 3-4 songs it will display correctly. Any other song list I choose that consist more than 5 songs, the first artist/song list re-appears on screen like the display is messed up.
    For example: Upon turning on device, I choose Aaliyah with a list of 9 songs displaying.
    Upon trying to select a different artist and song, for example I choose Nachtmar with a  list of 20 songs.
    The Aaliyah with the list of 9 songs re appears in place of the song list I am attempting to choose. The songs play and it works, but the display is incorrect. Why is it doing this? Does anybody have this problem? I have tried resetting and it has currently been updated. I have came across this problem just very recently a couple of days ago. I have had a couple of hard resets requiring to erase all data in the past and I don't want to go that way again because I have about 3,500 songs. I have never experience this problem before in the past. I just want it to display the current list of songs. It's inconvenient having to type in every song while playing in the car instead of being able to easily pick an individual song.

    I have this problem too and it drives me crazy. When I view my ipod, I don't want to see a list of the first 8 songs in my ipod library. I just want to see the current song playing. It's like the ipod display goes into some type of "sleep" mode while your music plays,and the display defaults to show the first few songs in your ipod touch library, even though none of those songs are currently being played. I have to take the time to either flip the ipod over a couple of times in order for that list to disappear just to see the current song playing.
    This is an example of what I see on my display after the current song begins playing. These are the first songs in my ipod library. To get rid of this view, I have to either shake the ipod or flip it over a couple of times and the current song is now displayed, allowing you to see the current song, also allowing you access to the arrows to either fast forward or playback/reverse. On the display, the songs are in a grid or table format (unable to show that here).

  • Help with ipod video, screen doesn't work

    My ipod started acting weird when I updated the ipod software. My screen will freeze, but it's not black or white, it shows the "Do not disconect" sign but with a bunch of little color squares all over the screen. I've tried everything, restore it, reset it, everything and as soon as it turns on, the screen goes like this.
    can anyone help me?
    thanks!

    Try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem:
    - Reset. Nothing is lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod
    If you still have the problem then you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • TS1363 How to fix ipod when screen is frozen and appears locked?

    I'd also like to figure out how I can sync music from my computer seemlessly without clearing all the music on my ipod, then transfering it all back including a few new tracks (head scratcher).

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • Ipod video screen question

    i've noticed that my new ipod has gotten several minor scratches on the screen...but the thing is haven't even touched the screen so how could that be caused?? does anybody know how much it would cost to have the screen repaired if i ever have to send it back to apple?
    5G white 30 Gig    

    simply said the screen to replace would be to costly. you can instead use a scratch cleaner like brasso or ice kreme.these work relatively well and are a minor fix. The scratches can be easily created by any form of rubbing or scuffing done by the owner i.e. like storing it in the provided case that came with the ipod. It would have been ideall if you had not removed the clear film on the front of the ipod at all. And kept it on until you replaced it with either the invisible shield or a like clear film on PDA screens. Or have gotten a good case for your ipod immediattely.
    Thats what i did i never removed the clear film that came with the ipod unitl i got a case which is this one.
