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.

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Make sure that y do not leave any foreign material or leave anything in the jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be 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.
- 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
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

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).

Further on Option 3, this can often be a good choice for older iPads, iPads out of warranty, or if you are looking for a cheaper option than Apple is offering.
Many communities have local repair shops who can fix broken iPad screens. Try Yelp or another local search tool.
You can also try a variety of National Mail In repair companies who specialize in iPad Repair such as RepairZoom: http://www.repairzoom.com/ipad-repair.html
Always check online reviews and BBB ratings before sending your iPad off for repair!

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.

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.

IPod and scraches, how to fix them?

I have a 5G (Video) iPod. I was SOO careful with it waiting to pick out the perfect case that would suit me and the way I use my iPod, but one day when I went to pick a case out I brought the iPod with me to the store in my pocket. After making my puchase, without thinking I put the change the cashier gave me in my pocket. when I got home I seen where the rough egdes of the quarters and dimes make small scraches on one spot on the left side of the screen. there not too noticable until Im on the main screen of the iPod with its white background or when watching video where a bright image moves across where the spot of scraches are. My question is can anyone suggest how to fix the scraches? Should I use some acrylic cleaner to "Remove" or "Fill in" the scraches, or should I find a place that will replace the whole acrylic cover of the iPod? I thought about sending it into apple for repairs but I don't want a replaced iPod, I want to keep the one I have, and just have the front acrylic cover repaired or replaced.

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!

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?

Ipod video 60gb how to transfer movies from DVD to mi ipod

DVD movies to my ipod how do i do that
I use PQ DVD. It is easy to use just open it up, insert your DVD, hit play on the interactive menu and press record. It will send the file to a pre-determind file and then just open iTunes and drag it accross. As simple as that.
