Screen on ipod touch freezes and then goes white.

Screen on ipod touch freezes and then goes white. Ihave restarted it and restored it but it didn't work. Anyone know what is wrong with it and how it can be fixed?

If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

  • Screen Freezes and then goes white

    Hi. I'm new to this forum, and this question may already been posted.
    Recently when I am watching shows online, my screen will all of a sudden freeze and then start to fade to a grey and then to a white. After a couple moments it usually fixes itself, but in some cases I've had to manually shut it down.
    It is starting to do it more frequently (maybe once a day). I've never had the problem before and I've been watching shows online for over a year now. I'm just wondering if there may be something wrong that can be fixed or done.
    Any help or advise would be appreciated.
    I'm using the Macbook with the aluminum casing.
    One more question, sorry..... Is it normal for the case to get warm, almost too warm?
    Thanks again!

    mine does this too, I bought my macbook in currys and I went there yesterday to hopefully get my macbook fixed under a year warranty. I took pictures while my mac was freezing and showed it to them so they performed some tests about graphics I think, then the only thing they said was the heat is the problem nothing else. I've got a transparent case for my mac, they told me to get rid of it and so I did but when I got home and used it for about 30 minutes, the screen freezes again and goes to white. What do I do now? Help please.

  • Satellite M30 - Screen freezes and then goes white

    Hello,
    After searching with M30-241 and finding nothing, I'm trying this way. My Notebook is 2,5 years old has been repaired once because of the white screen and now it's doing it again. When playing a game like snooker 2003 the screen freezes you can hear the sound going on and then the screen starts getting transparent until it is completely white.
    I have to press the power bitten and shut down the system but it only happens by gaming. Word, excel, PowerPoint, films no problem.
    Thanks for your help

    thanks for your help fireman6135

    Hi Anton,
    This situation is usually caused by the Graphics/CPU chip getting too hot. I suggest you try cleaning out the ventilation grilles of your notebook and also make sure that there is no obstruction to the free flow of air through the cooling heat-sink.

  • Bb9860 boots upto 75% and then goes white screen plz help.

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain directly connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB, not a cradle):
    With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
    Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    Remove the battery
    Wait 15 minutes
    Insert the battery
    Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    This has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
    It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
    Obtain an known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
    Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
    The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem. Note carefully please that "new" and "know good" are not necessarily the same things. While rare, a "new" battery certainly could be defective. Rather, the simplest (and least costly, btw) method to conduct this test is to find someone with an identical BB who has no issues...trade batteries and see what happens.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • IPod Touch freezes and cannot be opened but still plays songs

    i have 6months old iPod Touch 8gb and even in the first week of my purchase, while playing songs, it will suddenly freeze: it won't let me do anything. Just black screen but it still plays the music.
    i would reset it (home button + sleep/wake button) and then it would be ok again. but if I just let it playing while its on freeze, after a few minutes it would stop playing and the freezing will continue.
    I have tried restoring it: erasing all contents on my iTouch but it won't do anything.
    This happens quite a lot of time now. It's actually worse now. I happened to bring it to the MAC store to let them define the problem. They said it probably has something to do with the "music" that I'm playing. Might corrupted or something. But of course I know what I'm playing and what I'm playing isn't corrupted. They would try to diagnose it though but it will take days for them to do it by restoring it and downloading other music and if, they said, the new downloaded songs won't make the iPod freeze, they would have to charge me even if my iPod is still on warranty.
    Is this a common problem? should i try to let them fix the problem or is there anything i can do myself to fix it?

    Welcome to the discussions,
    to make sure the problem is not the iPod software, restore your device "as new iPod" without using the backup to get your data back.
    If you can use your iPod without problems after that, the some data on the iPod was corrupted. Add your music step by step to make sure the music files are ok.

    PLEASE HELP, The ipod works but it is incredibly annoying to chooswe a song

    - Reset. 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
    - Unsync all the music and then resync the music.

  • My iPod touch froze and then slowly became a white screen

    I just need some answers. Should I see if the battery will die? Or should I try
    And use some elaborate combination of buttons to make it work again.
    I don't know , but as long as it gets my iPod touch working again I'm fine
    With it.

    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.

  • What do I do when my iPod touch freezes and I turn it off and it won't show anything?

    I looked at my Ipod touch and the screen was all white.
    I pushed both of the buttons and held them like I was told to,
    and it went off and won't show anything...
    I don't know what to do to turn it back on....

    - Let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful then time for an appointment at the genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • IPod Touch freezing and restarting with new iOS5.

    I've restored settings, and its just gone back to how it was, except even worse. I turn it on, and it'll either instantly freeze, and restart, or freeze then work, then freeze again, then work again, until it eventually freezes and restarts. Also, the battery life with the new ios is dire, before my iPod would last a week or so without being turned off, now it only lasts a couple of days...
    I presuming the iOS is 5.1, and its a third gen iPod touch.
    Was just curious if there is a way to revert to an older iOS, as this one will not work, and if not, what else could be done.
    Thanks in advance.

    Sorry to hear about that. Here is some info:
    -you can't revert back to iOS 4.3.7 or earlier if you have upgraded to iOS 5.
    Follow these steps to make your iPod stop freezing:
    1- Double click on the home button. Some apps should appear. Hold onto the first one until it starts to jiggle. Then go through all of them and tap the little minus button.
    2- Hold the power button down until your iPod completely turns off. Wait 30 seconds and turn it back on. That should stop it, but if it doesn't, do the following.
    Plug your iPod into your computer and open up iTunes. Then click restore. (This  will take a couple of miunutes). Then Put all your apps and music (and whatever else) back onto your iPod.
    *OR*
    Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup >Back Up Now. Let it back up your iPod to iCloud. (This shouldn't take very long). Next go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content And Settings. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU BACK UP YOUR IPOD TO ICLOUD!
    Now it will delete EVERYTHING off your iPod. (This includes iOS, and sometimes if your iPod is freezing, it is because you dropped or banged your iPod on something when you where upgrading to iOS 5). Now you need to go through and select your language, location settings and other stuff. When you get to the part where you need to decide where you want to restore your iPod from, choose iCloud and select your WiFi network. Now you need to decide whick restore point to choose. Most people choose the latest one, but you may want to choose the one before that. Now it will restore your iPod.
    This should work. If this doesn't, go to you local Apple store and talk to a specialist in iPods or someone behind the genius bar.

  • Why does my 3rd generation iPod touch freeze and crash randomly?

    My sister has a used 3rd Gen iPod touch. It looks fine, not much physical damage beyond normal wear. But it will continuly randomly freeze and crash. It will shut off and we have to turn it back on, only to have it crash again. The frequency of this varies and resetting it and restoring it to factory setting make no difference. Is there anything we could do to fix it?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: 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. See:       
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If it still occurs that indicates a hardware problem. Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
