iPod Touch 2nd Generation: Il mio iPod Touch funziona ma lo schermo è tutto bianco. Perché?

Wed, 16 Jul 2025 23:59:10 -0700

Ho questo problema da un po' di tempo e ho cercato ovunque una soluzione.Il mio iPod Touch funziona bene, ma non vedo niente. Quando lo accendo, vedo solo uno schermo bianco. Se premo lo schermo risponde (ad esempio, scorrere per sbloccare, sento che si sblocca), si sincronizza, si spegne, ma non vedo nulla.

Lo schermo mostra anche diverse intensità di luce quando necessario (ad esempio, all'avvio dell'iPod, lo schermo bianco è molto meno luminoso). Un'altra cosa che ho notato è che la parte inferiore sinistra dell'iPod si scalda ogni volta che si accende lo schermo bianco.

Ho provato a ripristinarlo, a entrare in modalità DFU, ma niente. Probabilmente si tratta di un problema hardware, ma non so esattamente quale. Qualcuno può aiutarmi?

Oggi è successa una cosa strana. Ho collegato l'iPod al mio MacBook Pro per vedere se un aggiornamento del firmware avrebbe risolto il problema. Ho aggiornato il firmware, ma niente da fare. Dopo di che ho lasciato l'iPod collegato al Mac per qualche ora. Quando sono tornato e l'ho acceso, lo schermo FUNZIONAVA!

Appena ho staccato l'iPod, dopo circa 5 secondi, lo schermo è diventato di nuovo bianco come prima. Penso che abbia qualcosa a che fare con il fatto che la batteria è completamente carica?

Questa domanda ha suscitato molto interesse nel forum in inglese. Crediamo che la sua risposta possa aiutare ad aiutare anche i riparatori che parlano italiano:

iPod Touch 4th Generation: unknown component in the bottom of the dock connector

Wed, 29 Oct 2014 01:20:21 -0700

Hello. I would like to know what kind of component that's what came off. It was close to the pitches of the speaker.

Thanks

Ciao. Vorrei sapere che tipo di componente è questo che si è staccato. Era vicino alle piazzole dello speaker.

Grazie

iPod Touch 7th Generation: What Is This Tab At The Bottom Where The Jack/Speakers Are?

Tue, 23 Jun 2026 10:43:46 -0700

I'm replacing the screen/faceplate of a 7th gen iPod touch. I came across the tab circled in red and I'm unsure on what it is. It seems to be preventing me from fully pulling the battery up and I haven't worked on one of these devices before. The Ifixit tutorials seem to have that tab in their tutorials, but it's not mentioned and it's a copper color.

Could someone point me in the right direction and tell me how to remove the tab or move it out of the way?

Thanks!

iPod Touch 2nd Generation: My iPod Touch had a kernel panic, and now is completely FROZEN!

Tue, 16 Jun 2026 15:11:18 -0700

I recently got a lot of Apple iPods (3 of which are iPod touch 2nd Generation)

This one specifically is my weirdest case, No Water Damage, Cracks, or dents. Just a scuffed up 8GB iPod Touch 2nd Gen

The times I powered it up, it had a kernel panic. And with the last time I've done such, it now doesn't want to turn on anymore

iPod Touch 7th Generation: Can't remove the front display!

Sun, 07 Jun 2026 22:37:27 -0700

It seems impossible to remove the front display! I used the iOpener repeatedly, a heat gun, all to no avail. I bought a new display and all the tools to replace it, but I can't get started. The adhesive just doesn't want to budge! Help!

iPod Touch 5th Generation: Can I swap an iPod touch 6's casing on a touch 5?

Fri, 08 May 2026 00:30:03 -0700

After cutting my hand open trying to take the "iPod loop" off my old casing(my replacement that I bought in China didn't come with one somehow) I now decided I hate that thing and was just wondering whether I can just slap an iPod touch 6's casing on a touch 5 and call it a day. I saw the teardown and repair videos of both devices and it seems to me the only significant difference is the prescence of the pointless "iPod loop" on the touch 5.

Can anyone confirm whether I can swap the casing between them? thanks in advance

iPod Touch 5th Generation: My iPod is completely dead!

Sun, 26 Apr 2026 06:59:49 -0700

Hi, so recently my iPod wouldn't turn on.

I have tried force restarting it (power and home button for more than 2 minutes)

I have tried plugging it in to a computer and then pressing the home button

iTunes doesn't recognise it because it is completely out of battery.

It doesn't even come up with the low battery sign or any Apple Logo.

The cable isn't the problem. It works fine on other apple products, but on my ipod touch 4th generation, i think my ipod doesn't have connection to the charger. Maybe there's something wrong with the input in my ipod??

> restore ipod failed, stuck on apple logo & usb

> trying to flash it using 2utools, stuck in 14% (screen shows apple logo and empty loading bar), always ended up failed with error -1

> ipod disconnected mid flashing (i use direct usb port on my macair 2017)

> got 2pcs 30pin cables with a bit suspicious conditions (need to adjust the port to make it connect)

pre-restoration status :

> ipod can play music, speaker works, buttons work, glass screen cracked yet no sign of dead pixel/dent/black spot, wifi works

> can charge with those cables but need adjustment to make it work

> can connect to finder and works well (can delete/add media)

> cameras not working (black/sometimes greens/show some hardware error) it still can capture/record

> was jailbroken : cydia

> apple account logged out

Was waiting for about 30ish min to restore, so i left to do something else. But it showed apple logo + usb and restore failed.

My intention was wanting to clear all of the existing musics, so i want to restore it. But it went wrong. Help, thank you.

iPod Touch 7th Generation: Can I just repair the front glass (screen)?

Mon, 09 Feb 2026 04:12:33 -0700

I used IFIXIT to repair my iPhone 4s years ago and it came out fine!

Now my wife has an iPod touch 7th gen that she dropped and the glass (screen?) is broken. It is like a cracked window. The unit still works fine, but I would like to replace the glass. In reading the detailed procedure on your website, I wonder if I need to do all the steps required (like detaching the home button, the lightning connection, speaker, moving the battery out of the way, etc. all to just replace the front glass? It seems like a lot of work!
