White screen with line down the middle?

My Ipod hit the floor and now all I can see is a white screen with a line down the middle. Do I need to send it in for repair or is there something else I can do to get the screen to work? The music still plays however.

Sounds like a hardware problem. I am not sure if you want to send it to Apple since they are likely to want to charge you almost the replacement cost of the iPod, that is if they will look at it at all.
You might try some of the online iPod repair places. Many are pretty affordable.

  • My iPad screen has developed a vertical line down the middle

    My iPad screen has developed a vertical line down the middle for some reason. I have tried turning it off and resetting it, but the line still appears. Does anyone know what causes this or how it could be rectified?

    Hi JoMayo,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you're noticing lines or distortion on your iPad screen, I would suggest completing step 4 (update iPad) and 5 (restore iPad) in our iPad assistant:

  • Ipad 2 front camera has a blurry black line down the middle

    Evening,
    My Ipad 2 front camera has a blurry black line down the middle, tried resetting but still there. back camera is fine.
    Any ideas ???

    Hello AndyPharris,
    It sounds like you're seeing an unexpected black line when you take photos with your rear camera. I would next backup the iPad to your iTunes library:
    iOS: How to back up and restore your content
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    And restore it from your backup with this article as a new device to test the issue:
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
    If it works, restore from your backup and verify it still works. If the issue persists when you restore as new, I would seek service for your device with this page:

  • Blue lines down the middle of my pages

    Why am I getting blue lines down the middle of my pages when I print?

    Hello Talladega75,
    Welcome to the HP Forums.
    I see that you are having an issue with Blue lines on your print outs.
    So I can better assist you, please respond with which Operating System you are running as well as the exact printer model number.

    Please make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
    Please write me back when you have time if you are still having issues.

  • HT1338 I downloaded upgrades available. The installation of those took a long time after re- initiatin the system and had to off. After this I could not get it to turn on again. Just stays in the gray screen with apple in the middle. What's wrong?

    Sorry to hear of your problem, but any hardware in a computer can fail - that includes the hard drive, the logic board, etc, etc. Fortunately, it usually doesn't happen that soon; however, I've read of hard drives failing within 6 months.
    So, since you did not purchase the extended Applecare Protection Plan (3 years coverage), you will need to make a decision to repair or sell it as is. I would always purchase 3 year coverage for an all in one or a laptop because repairs are expensive and at least I'd be covered for 3 years.
    We can't speculate on whether there should be a recall or not; these forums are for user to user assistance with technical problems. In your case, there is nothing we can help with since you've already gotten a diagnosis.

  • Where'd that black line down the middle come from?

    I have a black line down the middle of each page of a template that is visible in the PDF Export. Since this is a magazine template, is it supposed to be there?
    Thx.
    Paul

    Okay, as long as it's okay that it shows up in the PDF export.
    Thx.

  • Black screen with a thick white vertical line down the middle?

    I turned my iPod touch 5 off, it was at about 10%. I turned it back on a few minutes later and there was the apple logo, as usual, but with small white writing on the black background. Then, I plugged it into my charger, and the logo and writing faded away. Instead, there then was a black screen with a thick white vertical line going down the middle, and it seems to be stuck like that. What happened and how do I fix it??
    Note: My home button is stuck and does not work. Also, I never updated my iPod to iOS 7.

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    When it says place the iPod in recovery mode,
    Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:
    For PC
    RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
    or
    http://joshuabailey1997.wordpress.com/2010/09/02/recboot-v1-3/
    If necessary:
    Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
    and                                           
    RecBoot tip
    RecBoot may have problems on 64X windows, then try:       
    Tenorshare ReiBoot – Enter & Exit iPhone, iPad, iPod Recovery Mode with a Single Click
    For MAC or PC       
    The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
    Installs blootware on PC too
    - 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.

  • I bootup to a white screen with mavericks. The cursor is there but I can't do anything.

    I have recently installed Mavericks. When I boot up it sometimes boots to a white screen with just the cursor visible. I can move the cursor but can not do anything else. Any suggestions?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
