White screen at when turning iPod on

When my iPod nano 2nd generation has been off for long enough (like 15 mins) and when I turn it back on, I get a completely white screen: it does it consistently. The iPod is on and I can hear the click when I use it. If I turn the iPod off again by holding the play/pause button long enough abnd turn it back on again, then the display is fine and shows me the menu. Anybody encountered the same problem? I did the 5 R's and restored the iPod twice (once resyncing my songs, and once not resyncing because I am planning to bring it back to Apple). I am very disappointed: I have waited 9 months since my birthday in January for a 8G iPod and just got this iPod yesterday. Now I have to bring it back to the store and I hope they will exchange it straight away: I am not willing to wait any more longer to be able to use a $261 iPod (with taxes).

iPod nano 2nd generation

This has happened to me twice since I got my ipod this saturday. I noticed that it only did it when I had turned the ipod off while I was fooling around the the photo slideshows. If i hit menu twice then turned the ipod off it came back fine. It hasn't happened constantly with me but I would imagine that if it continues happening alot I will take it back to the store. For me, it would be a hard thing to prove.
Hope I've helped abit.

    Hello,
    This will fix your problem!
    To put the device in DFU mode,
    1. Connect the device to iTunes
    2. Hold both the power button and the home button down simultaneously
    3. After 10 seconds, release the power button but leave the home button pressed
    4. iTunes should then recognize that the device has entered DFU mode and ask to restore.
    That should get you back on your way.

    There have been numerous reports on the forum today regarding this issue. It seems to be an issue at Apple, but no information has been posted on the status site.

  • How to fix white screen of death on iPod 4g after screen replacement?

    How to fix white screen of death on iPod 4g after screen replacement?

    I would try to reset it before anything else.  To do this press and hold the home and power buttons until the the white screen shows the apple logo (~ 15 secs.).
    If this does not work then more than likely the LCD is damaged.
    btw- The white screen is common after repairs.  The reset fix works 90% of the time.

  • White screen when turn ipod touch on...help

    There is a white screen when I turn my iPod touch on.   please help

    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.

  • IPod screen blank when turned on

    When I turn on my iPod classic all I get is white when I should get the menu or the now playing screen. I've tried hooking it up to iTunes, resetting it, and restoring it. When I reset it, it's the same but it shows up grey. The blacklight still goes off after 5 seconds because that's how I have it set, but there's nothing on the screen, it's all just white or grey.
    Any help here?

    hi ,
    I' been trying everything and nothing, in gets recognized by itunes I can restore it even sync works, the only thing is missing seems to be the screen that stays white or gray all the time.
    Is it the famous white screen of death? help please.

  • Ipod nano white screen and not turning off

    hi I bought a new mini pioneer stereo/dvd and put my ipod nano on it yesterday.. no probs it played.... but today i put it on the dock and all that it showed on the screen was a white screen with "ok to disconnect" on it... I took it off and now it is still a white screen adn flashing "Do not disconnect" I'm freaking out because I am not technically minded and my brother spent hours putting music on it for me
    It is not turning off at all
    eek
    Thanks to anyone with time to help me

    Hi
    It seems to be ok now... I had to go out and it ran out of battery, when I switched it back on it  appears to be fine.
    If it happens again (hoping that it doesn't!) and i do the reset.. will that remove all the music that's on there?
    Sorry for the ignorance
    Thank you for the answer

  • Video iPod- white screen, 3 beeps, turns itself back on, G5 can't recognize

    With my 60 GB video iPod all I now get is a white screen. All I can do is turn it off by pressing Center/Menu and get three beeps, but it turns itself on again with those same three beeps, to the blank white screen again. My G5 does not recognize the iPod when plugged in. The iPod and the G5 are both still under warranty. Anyone have any suggestions?

    If you tried a restore and it is still doing it, then you most likely have a hardware issue.
