White screen and high pitched sound whenever ipod is on

Anyone know how to fix this? Haven't used this ipod in a while so i charged it up to the max, but when i turn it on the screen remains white and a high pitched sound constantly rings until it is turned off. Tried restarting the ipod but i still get the same white screen. I even updated the software on my computer but no fixes yet...

Try connecting the ipod and resetting it while it is connected.
Also, here are other pages that may help

    it really depends on what exactly the problem is.  take is to an Apple Store or AASP and have them look at it
    But what have I done to get this problem? I don't understand.
    You may not have done anything.  Parts can go bad on their own.

    Just let the battery drain until the screen shuts off. When you charge it back up it should boot up normally.

    Tried SMU, PRAM, MMU resets, but nothing helps...
    Thank you for your support.

    You need to take it in for service, it may be a stuck key or component failure.

  • Intel OS X 10.7 iMac has white screen and three-alarm sound, won't start up

    Intel OS X 10.7 iMac has white screen and three-alarm sound, won't start up

    The 3 beeps during start-up are telling you that the RAM is bad.
    If you can access the RAM modules, you may try taking them out and putting them back in, perhaps it's only bad contacts.
    If that doesn't help, you'll need new RAM module(s).

  • Macbook Pro and high-pitch sound, please help!

    Hello,
         I have a Macbook Pro 13 inch that is almost brand new. I just got it 3 months ago for my birthday. About a month or two with my new computer I started hearing a high-pitch sound comming from the computer. The sound only lasts about 3-6 seconds and it goes of at random times. It might make the noise 5 times in one day but then it might go away for 3 days, totally random. The sound comes if the computer is sitting there or is being used. After about 3 months of this going off I deceided to bring it to the Apple store in New Haven, CT. Does anyone have the same problem?
         After bringing my computer in and telling them the problem, they tested in for about 30 minutes. Everything was fine. No fan problem or hardrive problem. I brought the computer back home and within 3 days the sound is back. I drove to the Apple store again told them my problem,again, and they did they same test with no results. Brought it back home, noise is still there. This time im starting to get angry, they arent offering any solution. I bring it back and they take it for about 48 hours and do a extensive check. Nothing was found. I bring it home again and the noise is still there. My father and I went to Apple pretty angry and told them that we appreciate the time they take but something really needs to be done. They have sent it out for 3-5 days and we are awating a phone call to see whats wrong.
         I am hoping that they find something or if they dont can they can replace my computer? I am not spending hours of my own time and gas money going back and forth to Apple for no reason..the Genius bar guys have been no help telling us basically that we are lying and that there is nothing wrong when clearly there is. What can I do? Has anyone had this same noise come from their computer? I really appreciat everyone that decideds to throw some input in. Thank you so much.

    Make a recording of the sound so the next time you take it in you can let them hear it. It might be best to do a video of the unit so the sound is combined with pictures/video of the computer so they know  the sound is coming from it.
    IMHO the guys at the B-bars are just about useless for this type of thing. If it isn't a bad drive, HDD or DVD, and the system seems to run OK (actually even if it doesn't run OK but runs at all) they will say "Everything looks OK". Or if the thing is dead they can help. That help will be "You need a new HDD" "You need a new DVD drive" "You need a new Logic board" and that's about it.

  • A very high pitched sound @ startup

    Hello and thanks in advance for any leads.
    I had a very strange thing happen. At startup there appeared a VERY loud and high pitched sound just at the time menus began appearing on top of the desktop. At first I thought it was the smoke alarm! it was so loud. There has been no new updates or software installed (that I know of...).
    It has happened a few times since, and the only common thing I've noticed is that it does this after I've moved my laptop while it's on. Say from the desk to the reading chair in my office (distance of 5ft maybe). If I shut it down at that point and restart later it would do it. I cannot repeat this issue, it's just that the few times it has happened that is the only commonalty.
    Is my motherboard, HD, or sound card about to go?
    Thanks!
    Sabah

    That's what I was thinking as well, that it is a Hardware issue. I have replaced the sound card on the Pismo about a year or so back, (though, I don't know why it would start acting up now)?
    To answer your question, it is a continuous piercing sound (very loud, almost unbearable)!
    Thanks JPL

  • White screen and constant beeping

    I have a 2011 macbook pro.  This morning when I powered it on all I get is a white screen and constant beeping sound.  The beeping goes away after about 2 minutes.  Then there is a folder with a flashing ?.  Is this something I can take care of at home or do I need to take it in to an apple store?

    I noted that nowhere in that article is beeping mentioned.
    Instead of seeing the Finder or the login window after startup, your computer may stop responding and the display may only show a persistent gray screen (you may also see an Apple logo, spinning gear, spinning globe, prohibitory sign, or a folder with a flashing question mark on it). Note: The below steps may not apply if a blue screen appears during start up.

  • My 13" macbook just stopped working. When you turn it on you get a white screen and hear a repetitive clicking sound on the left side. Is this the hard drive? Any suggestions on replacement drives?

    Put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. Be sure to either use the disc that came with your Mac, or, if you installed a later Mac OS X version from disc, use the newer disc. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option Key until the Install Disk shows up) until the apple shows up. That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
    When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Disk Utility and click it. When it comes up is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
    If it is, then click on the Mac OS partition of your hard drive in the left hand list. Then select the First Aid Tab and run Repair Disk. The Repair Disk button won't be available until you've clicked on the Mac OS partition on your hard drive. If that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions. After repairing use Startup Disk from the same menu to choose your hard drive for restarting from your hard drive.
    If your hard drive isn’t recognized in Disk Utility then your hard drive is probably dead.

  • HT1414 iPod Touch has a blank white screen and the computer does not recognise it. I have tried pressing the Home button and Up Volume button and Off button to no avail. Thank you

    Thank you

    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 iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • What should i do if my ipod touch 4 gen. has a white screen and it goes away rarely. Should i return it and get a new one

    What should i do if my ipod touch 4 gen. has a white screen and it goes away rarely. Should i return it and get a new one?

    If the problem persits after restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod then you likely have a hardware problem.  In that case an appointment at the Genius Bar of an apple store or returing it to Apple is in order.
