I have a ipod nano 2nd generation. It has the white screen of death. I have read where pushing and holding certain buttons will reset it. But I am ignorant of the terms used for the buttons. What buttons do I push - MENU, >>|, >|, |<< or center? In what order? And for about how long?
Hold Menu + SELECT (the select button is the big circular button the color of your casing just below the MENU and above PLAY/PAUSE >|| buttons) for 10s while it is off. If this doesn't solve your problem, then you can do a manual restore in iTunes. If that doesn't work, it may be another problem such as a dead battery.
I was having trouble too. I am charging my ipod right now because it was dead. My screen isn't really white it's like when you watch tv and it goes fuzzy. I will wait a while for it to charge and I will see if it works but my hopes aren't very high...
Ok so after I let it charge, I tried it and I thought it worked until I tried turning it off to see if the white screen of death would come back, which it sadly did. I don't know what to do...
