Why is my ipod screen blank?

I am having trouble with my ipad. When i try to switch it on, only a backlight comes on for a couple of seconds then turns blank again. I have restored my settings to the default settings, and updated the software. Does anyone have any info or feedback please?? Cheers.

The iPad is clearly faulty, you are going to have to take it to an Apple retail store to get it refunded or replaced.

  • Why is my IPOD screen white?

    Why is my IPOD screen white? I have a 3rd generation Ipod nano.  When I toggle it on, the screen lights up, but is blank.  Is there a fix for this problem?  I have reset and reformatted my Ipod with no success.  After several on/off cycles it will usually return to a normal screen, but it is very time consuming.  My Ipod still works when the the screen goes bright white- I just can't see anything to adjust, etc.  Thanks for any info.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - 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.

    as to why its gray, its either a glitch or something else. you need to turn it off and plug it into itunes and restore it. then sync it.

  • Why is the ipod screen on all the time when plugged in

    and conversely, why does the screen only show the time when you are actually walking around playing music?
    Is there any way to change that? I want to see what song is playing, not what time it is or whatever that number on the screen means.
    thanks
    Bob

    I don't want it to stay ON, ie lit -- I just want the information on the screen to stay the same, is that so hard? The time is on that screen anyway, why not give us an option to leave it that way? The battery lasts plenty long compared to older ipods.

  • Video Ipod Screen "Blank"

    Hope someone can help......The ipod works (as far as playing tunes) Video screen is blank......Any Info as to
    how and if it can be repaired???????

    If it is under warranty I would take it to an apple store or request service online. It if has damage to the case, or excessive scratches more then likley Apple will not repair it. If this is the case or if it is out of warranty you can get it repaired at any number of third party repair places. or you can do it yourself. It is not that hard, I have done it and if you are at all handy it is not that hard. You can even get a late 2006 screen that is 60 percent brighter. You can use the brightness control like on the new late 2006 models. I found one on ebay for 22 dollars and the regular screens for as little as 10 dollars, they come with instructions and the tools to take them apart. I have replaced several screens and batteries on both the video and nanos and it is doable

  • Why does my ipod screen keep flashing?

    i have an ipod touch 4th generation and whenever i open an application up the screen keeps flashing white.
    why is it doing this? and how do i fix it?

    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.

  • IPod screen blank white - PLEASE HELP!

    I got a new iPod touch yesterday, and today the screen just went blank. Just white. I've tried turning it off, I've restored it, but nothing works. the shops are closed (as is apple support) because it's Christmas, and I'd really like it to work soon, so if you have any ideas they would be much appreciated.

  • TS1382 why did my ipod screen lose contrast and become barely readable?

    My ipod classic has been kept connected to power and to my stereo.  Yesterday morning I found the screen to be washed out, so bright you can barely read it.  Changing the brightness setting helps but doesn't return it to the original state.  I do not find a contrast setting.  Is there a way to correct this and does anyone know why this may have  happened? 

    Thanks.  The backlight is still working and the screen is just barely readable (it seems as if I could adjust the contrast I would be OK).  I did a hard reset and have been putting off a retore because I have not backed up all my playlists and I am afraid of tinkering too much and lose what I have.  The ipod is maybe three years old.  The software is up to date.  If it were a hardware problem wouldn't the whitening be gradual?  This happened, literally, overnight.  Could the power source for the charger be the culprit?  I live on a boat and the power is 110 inverted from a 50 hz generator.  Guests (I have a charter boat) with ipads have noticed odd behavior when they plug in with the ipad charger.  They seem to be able to charge their ipads with my ipod charger with no problem.  Could be no connection (also, my husband's cell phone whited out a couple of days ago..may all be a coincidence as that phone has a few years on it, as well)...just thought I'd throw that info in the pot in case you know of any connections between charging and hardware malfunctions.  Thanks again.

  • 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.

  • Why is my Accounts screen blank in System Prefs?

    The Accounts pane of my System Preferences is completely blank. There are no admin or user accounts listed at all. There's just nothing there. I don't know how this happened and I need help getting it back to "normal", i.e. being able to see my admin account so I can make changes, etc. My home folder is in the Users directory, which should be the correct place, right? There is no login screen on computer startup, if that helps... the computer goes from booting to the desktop.
    Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    This happened on mine and it was caused by an account not getting a legit "realname" in the NetInfo.
    To fix it I went to Applications->Utilities->NetInfo Manager, click "users" in the middle pane, then start clicking usernames in the right pane. After clicking the username look on the bottom pane for a "realname" Property. If it doesn't have one you should click on one of the properties in the list, then click "New" at the top to add one called realname, double-click on the default Value that it added to the right and call it whatever you want.
