What can i do if my ipod has dead pixels?

Grey lines started appearing on my ipod screen today, and I don't know what to do? Can someone help me please?

For dead pixals see:
About LCD display pixel anomalies for Apple products released in 2010 and later
However, first try the following to rule out a software problem:
- 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.
- Restore form backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • 5th gen ipod has dead pixels.

    Hi i turned on my ipod today and discovered a horizontal line of dead pixels i ran it through diagnostics mode everything seems fine. i was wondering if there were any fixes i could do to it myself before mailing it in to apple for failing on me. no it isnt covered under warranty

    This has been discovered to be a very common issue with the 5th Generation iPods, unfortunately.
    There is a very informative thread on the topic here: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8177702#8177702
    Hopefully that can answer your question.

  • What can i do if my ipod fell down in to the wather

    What can i do if my ipod nano fell down in to the wather?
    i can`t turn on my ipod! and it has garanty. i`m from  Mexico, Campeche!

    Don't try to turn it on, don't connect it to power.
    Put it in a baggie with raw rice, set it in a cupboard and let it dry for 4 to 5 days. After that time clean off any rice dust, connect it to power and let it charge for at least 30 minutes. While it is connected to power reset it.

  • What can I do if my ipod just stopped working?

    what can I do if my ipod just stopped working? I just purchased it on Aug 23, 2013. I was jogging with it then it just shut down and have not been able to turn it back on.

    It could be, since Apple is not liable for user negligence. However, there is no way to definitevely say yes or no on these forums. Apple will run a diagnostic on the device and draw their own conclusions. I would advise not telling them that part though. Best of luck.

  • TS1363 What can I do for an Ipod that won't update, won't allow you to eject it, and can't reset either?

    What can I do for an Ipod that won't update, won't allow you to eject it, and can't reset either? I can simply unplug it from my pc and after a while it runs down and works fine after a charge. Wanting to clear data and sell but nothing seems to work. The ipod was originally set up on a different computer and with a different I tunes account as well. Would that make any difference?

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

    Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.

    Place the iPod in recovery mode after the firmware download is complete and then restore using the instructions in the article. Sometimes recovery mode timeouts and returns to disabled before the firmware download is complete.

    Check for hardware issues
    Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.

    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
    Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
    Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
    Power up
    Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

  • I bought an iphone secondhand first generation that now has dead pixels. Impossible for me to get it replaced/fixed by Apple?

    As the title says:
    I bought an iphone secondhand first generation that now has dead pixels and I'm not sure of the cause. Impossible for me to get it replaced/fixed by Apple? It's obviously more than a year old and there's no added warrantee...

    To the best of my recollection, the first-generation iPhone, if that is truly what you have, was never released in Australia, so no, you probably cannot get any service from Apple for that iPhone. You may wish to confirm what model of iPhone you really do have using this information:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3939
    before you proceed further. Your options will depend on what model of iPhone you really do have, and where that iPhone was originally sold (service is available from Apple only in the country in which the iPhone was originally sold).

    If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

    - 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 another cable       
    - 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 can I do if my ipod fell and separated the screen from the things inside? i can separate them completley and see the inside of my ipod. It still works, it just doesn't display any image or whatsoever

    Please help me! I just want to know what can i do to make it work again, do I have to take it to an Apple store or something? btw i bought it like two years ago, so my guarantee is not valid anymore.

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
