iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting tentang Display

Display image issues

This can include bright or dark pixels, lines in video, or sections of video missing.

1. Turn iPod touch off and turn it on again. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on top of iPod touch for a few seconds until a red slider appears, and then slide the slider. Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
2. View different content to verify that the issue is not content related.
3. If the image is too dark, adjust the brightness. In General Settings choose Brightness and slide the slider.



Display does not go into wide-screen mode

1. Open a web page or video and try turning iPod touch on its side to see if it goes into wide-screen mode.
2. If that doesn't work, try another web page or video.

Note: Not all applications on iPod touch use wide-screen mode. Videos are automatically in wide-screen mode when in iPod and YouTube.
