White Line Down Middle of iPod Classic Screen

I have recently noticed a thin white vertical line on the right side of my iPod classic screen. It doesn't affect the iPod's function at the moment but I'm worried that it is signaling a potential technicial problem. I have tried all the initial troubleshooting steps suggested but am leery about uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes.

Removing and re-installing iTunes won't do any good as it does not pertain to the iPod in any way. If none of the 5 R's of troubleshooting helped, we can definitely say that it is a hardware issue with the iPod's LCD display.

Sometimes it helps to let the battery fully drain and then redoing the 5 R's.

Post a screen shot if you can by pressing cmd+shift+4 for only a certain section or cmd+shift+3 for a full screen shot.

White lines on ipod classic screen, could it be cracked screen? it has never been dropped or anything. Is it pretty common problem. Contacted apple support, denies problem exist.

White lines three appeared on my ipod classic screen. It has never been dropped or screen scratched. Suddenly white lines appeared on the screen. Tried to reset settings, nothing changed. Is this a common issue with ipod classic coz apple adviser denying ever having heard of this problem and I have to pay half of msrp to fix it. Offered 10% off to purchase new ipod and turn in old one. What a waste. Apple should take responsibility if this problem is indeed inherent with this product.

The magnets are tnot the cause.
Try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem.
- Reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPad: 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 tofactory defaults/new iPad
If still problem then time for an appointment at teh Genius Bar of an Apple store. The drops may have damaged it or there could be another cause.

Thin white line at top of ipod 80G classic screen

Would like to know if there is a way to get rid of this line, which is located across the top of the screen, in the area where the battery icon is located. The screen was fine then I downloaded the latest version of software for the 80G Classic and synced it. Next thing I knew I had this white line across the top of the screen. Is there a way to get rid of the line, or do I have to send the unit in and have Apple repair it? Only had the unit since December 2007.

Oh - you are good!

White line down screen

I have a satellite P105-S6124. A one inch vertical white line is on screen. What causes this and can it be repaired? Its always there and never goes away.

Probably a defect in the screen. You can verify that by using an external monitor and seeing if it gets a white line down the screen too. If it doesn't, you've got a bad screen or possibly the video cable. Screens are expensive. Hopefully the computer is still under warranty.

Line across top of ipod classic

I have a new ipod classic 80Gb, and tonight I accidentally dropped it onto a hard surface. Now there's a thin white line across the top of the screen, like a whole line of pixels are missing. It doesn't go away after resetting. Is this permanent damage, or can it be repaired? I fear I know the answer, but I thought I'd ask anyway...

Bring it into Apple and see what they say.

Thin white line acroos the top of my screen after software update. Can NPRAM reset help to solve this or is it a permanent pixel problem?

White lines do I have a damaged screen but glass screen is not broken ?!?

White lines do I have a damaged screen ? They are now spreading and taking over my desktop but glass screen is not broken ?!?

they aren't dead pixels if they're white, are you sure they aren't grey? are they all vertical/horizontal, or just randomly spread around? also, have you dropped it or had done any physical activity with it? year would be helpful as well

HT1430 I have 4 white lines down right hand side of phone I cannot use any icons under the lines

My I phone 5 has 4 white lines down right hand side I cannot use the icons under it. Can anyone help?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
As long as the issue is not the result of user damage (like being dropped) it should be covered under warranty. Only Apple can say for certain whether it is covered or not.

Ipod Classic screen say connect to restore???

Ipod Classic screen say connect to restore but when I do so it just goes into do not disconnect screen and computer wont recognize it at all
I tried everything possible, I reseted it multiple times. try hard disk wont work. tried connecting it wont work. it is just usually stuck in the apple logo screen until it tells me to connect to restore and then after that it goes into Do not disconnect and then after a while it just say OK to disconnect but nothing else happens. HELP PLEASE

Since you stated
I tried everything possible
Most likely your iPod hardisk is giving problem, bring it in to Apple store if it is under warranty, else
do the Disk Diagnostic as posted by tt2.
It wont fix your problem, but the report will help in troubleshooting.

Nothing shows on my ipod classic screen

I can not get anything to show up on my ipod classic screen. I tried resetting my ipod and still nothing shows up on my screen, not even the Apple logo. I wonder if the battery is dead.

If the battery is "dead" (as in "fully drained", or empty), you will need to leave it on charge for at least thirty minutes before it shows any signs of life. Then, let it fully charge.
If that is not the issue, try leaving the iPod alone and unplugged for a few days (painful, I know). If the iPod is stuck doing something, but unable to turn on the screen, leaving it alone will cause the battery to empty out. Then, go for the "empty battery" option of recharging, as above.

Trying to export M2V, getting an annoying white line down side...

Hey guys, looking been looking for solutions to this but to no avail...
Trying to compress a prores 1920x1080 422 hq clip into an m2v for burning. Problem is whenever I touch the frame controls, I seem to get a freaking annoying white line down the right hand side of my vid.
If I turn the frame controls off, it works, but I want them on because the image quality is far superior with it one.
Here's the settings I had:
Another really annoying thing is that I did an experiment, I opened the prores in QT player, exported for web/computer/h264 and brought that into compressor, rendered it out. No white line. But H264 looks like utter crud.
Any ideas?? This is so infuriating. Thanks so much

A line (usually a green line) down the right side of a video usually means a size mismatch that the codec can't deal with. What is the final size the video shows, m2v?
Set Details Level to zero and turn off Active Details. Details Level and Anti-alias are used when up-sizing a video.
You may need to do the re-sizing before going to m2v. Resize using ProRes (4444 is an over kill) and use that to make your m2v. And use better as Russ has pointed out. The best setting will yield about 10% in quality over better. You will not see that 10% gain in quality in the final video. Especially since your going to m2v for the final video. When you use frame control to convert a video to m2v. Frame control has be read during each (2) pass adding to the time to the encoding. Personaly, if I need to use frame control to make a DVD (or h.264), I make a intermediate video... PreRes, and use that to make my DVD or h.264 video.
Lastly, if this doesn't fix the white line you may need to crop off 1 or 2 pixel lines (right or left) from the video. You won't see this in the final video.
I have had to do this.
Food for thought... If your making DVDs from 1080 video footage or having to resize the video regularly for DVDs or h.264 encoding. You can use the 'NEW JOB WITH TARGET OUT PUT' option in *Compressor. This will make a ProRes intermediate video with the size changes (you need set the new size). After that has be encoded it will automatically convert that ProRes video to m2v.
You can either do this at night (sleep time) or do something else while this is being executed.
Old video showing how to use this option. It will also tell you why you wouldn't want to use frame control when making an h.264 (m2v) video:
http://pixelcorps.cachefly.net/macbreak-154-540p-h264.mov
*If your using Compressor 3.5... the second encoding (MPEG-2 in the above example) you will need to set the size in the geometry widow. Compressor 3.5 leaves this blank (a bug), this was fixed in Compressor 4.
