  • TS4006 white screen ipod touch generation 4

    I have a plain white screen on my ipod touch generation 4. I have restored it..updated it etc. I'm able to hear music playing but can't see a thing. I have tried resetting it and I get nothing. Do I need a new screen?

    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..

    Replacing the screen would likely fix the problem but it could also be due to another hardware problem.

  • White screen (ipod touch)

    Please bare with me, I'm not good with the computer lingo...
    I have an ipod touch. My computer is running on windows 7.
    I was using my ipod this evening and the pop up came up saying that I had 20% battery life left. So I plugged it in. As soon as I plugged it in, the screen went white. Now it's just a dull white, until you touch it and then it goes bright again. But it's still just white. The volume button doesn't do anything, the power button doesn't work either. It wont do anything.
    I tried to get suggestions throught the tec. support, but it wont load on the website for some reason.
    Please help!!

    Thank you. I set up a call last night, for them to call me this morning. I was just hoping to have this resolved sooner haha.
    Here is what the lady told me to do, and it worked, incase someone else has this issue.
    1. Plug your USB cord into the computer but NOT your ipod.
    2. Hold the sleep/wake button (on the top)as well as the home button
    3. When the screen flashes or goes solid black, let go of the sleep/wake button, but continue to hold the home button.
    4. Now plug the USB cord into the ipod as well, still holding that sleep wake button.
    5. A pop up should show on your computer, stating that apple has detected you want to restore to factory.
    6. When that appears, click ok, and then let go of your home button on the ipod.
    7. When it is finished, another screen will come up saying that an ipod has previously been used on the computer. Do you want to sync with that, or sync a new one. Sync new, even if it is the same ipod.
    8. Once that is done, you can sync all your old information back on.
    THANKS FOR THE HELP!!

    If not covered by warranty
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB one and $99 for the others. They do not fix yours.

  • Will apple replace a cracked screen ipod touch for free?

    Well my ipod is very cracked and part of the ipod shows INSIDE the ipod and the screen is flashing white so i see NOTHING of the screen would apple replace my ipod?(ipod touch 4th gen 8gb)

    Every single device brought into an apple retail store is dealt with on a case-by-case basis. You might get lucky and find a retail employee who doesn't follow protocol. You never know what will happen

  • Sould i buy the white 4g ipod touch, or wait for the 5g ipod touch?

    I have the third generation ipod touch, and i love it but it doesnt have a camera. I was waiting for the fifth generation to come out but instead they released the same model but in white. Now i don't know if i should wait another year to buy the ipod touch which might have new features or just buy the white ipod.

  • White screen ipod 5

    I, or rather my IPOD 5th gen 60 Gb, is suffering from "white screen". Reset and updating doesn´t help. At random the display goes normal for a short while after I have been fiddling with the wheel.
    There are a lot of hits in different disc groups out on the net about this fenomenon. Some suspect it to be due to a bug in the software. The people at Apple seems to be to occupied counting money as there is no official comment on this. Or have I missed something?

    Still having the same problem with occassionally normal screen, sometimes totally white screen and most of the time a screen with stripes of white and colour wich makes the screen totally unreadable. The **** thing still plays music but I can´t see and thus can´t choose what I am playing.
    I opened the iPod and disconnected the screens ribbon cable and then reinserted it. This didn´t result in any improvement; the screen still works at random. Should I replace the screen or the logicboard?
    My iPod is resting calmly on a shelf and is not subject to any traumas. I never used it while on the move. For these occassions I use a solid state player.

    Hello fable987654321,
    I would be concerned as well if my iPod was stuck on a white screen.  I found a tutorial with steps you can take to help with issues like this.  You can skip any steps you have already taken in the following article:

    Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.

  • Updating to 4.2.1 has White Screened my Touch (3rd Gen)

    I finally got tired of the IOS Update nag message and let iTunes do the update. I disconnected the touch after the sync and had to run out of the house. WHen I went to turn it on I was met with a white screen. Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas? I have reset it, resynced it, restored, DFU'd and restored all to no avail. And the IOS still says 4.2.1! How can I be sure that this was IOS induced or a hardware failure? I am beside myself with frustration.

    I decided to resync from a PC in work. I managed to set it up as a new phone and put on some podcasts no problem. So maybe the problem is with my itunes on my home PC ?
    I might try to re-install it at home.
    Good idea, but be aware that all media content will be erased again because you're syncing to a different iTunes library.
    If you have things to keep, back up manually by right clicking on the phone in the device list and choosing "backup".
    Make sure to have at least one contact and event set up on your PC to be able to merge your data during the first sync.
    Purchases can be transferred by right clicking and choosing "transfer purchases" without the sync process.

  • How to fix a broken screen iPod Touch?

    The screen of my iPod Touch broke when he fell down and was wondering if Apple fixes it!

    I have some questions:
    But the cost is to repair any problem (inclusive with the screen)?
    And it is possible to repair even if I am from another country?
    How do I send repair? Where?

    That's because the hardware in the 1st gen iPod is not capable of running a newer OS. That is the way it will always be.

    6. My iPod is not eligible for warranty service. What are my service options?
    Apple offers two options for iPods that are not eligible for warranty service (see below). You will need to provide credit card details for these services. If you do not have a credit card, please take your iPod to your local Apple Retail Store.
    iPod Out-of-Warranty Battery Replacement Program: If your iPod requires service only because the battery's ability to hold an electrical charge has diminished, you can have the battery replaced for a service fee by using the Online Service Assistant or at your local Apple Retail Store. Alternatively, you can contact Apple Technical Support.
    For more details, please refer to the iPod Out-of-Warranty Battery Replacement Program Frequently Asked Questions.
    Out-of-Warranty Service: If your iPod requires service for any other hardware failure that is determined by Apple to be repairable, Apple will service your iPod for the Out-of-Warranty Repair Service fee.
    If you want to set up your iPod for the Out-of-warranty service, we recommend that you take your iPod to a local Apple Retail Store. Alternatively, you can contact Apple Technical Support.
    Click here for pricing.
    If Apple determines that an iPod is not repairable, for example, if it has failed due catastrophic damage or the iPod has been disassembled into multiple pieces, then Out-of-Warranty Service is not available and the iPod will be returned. Please see Apple's Repair Terms And Conditions for further details.
    Sorry, dropping your ipod is not covered by your warranty, check your Out-of-Warranty Service Options above.
