Nothing is worse than coming home with your brand new toy and find a major problem with it. In the case with iPods this can be a defective screen with the so called negative black effect. Such screens have problems displaying dark colors. Often the screen is quirky or flickering while playing videos on iPod. When we have that kind of an iPod Screen, how can we possibly fix that iPod touch screen problem? Here are several suggestions on how to improve our iPod screen functioning:
+ First, turn the auto brightness off. This will reduce screen flickering and sometimes may fix your iPod’s touch screen problem for a longer period of time.
+ Check if the battery is low. However, this kind of problems seems to appear even if battery is fully charged and iPod is running off the USB power.
+ Put a little pressure on the back and bottom right corner and the iPod device would usually correct itself for a while. This method is not a permanent solution to fix your iPod touch screen problems but anyway, you can use it as a temporary measure until your device is replaced by the manufacturer.
Manufacturers of iPods have finally officially acknowledged that the problem is a really existing one and that a corporate policy on fixing iPod touch screen problems is a necessity. The problem has been ascribed to bad quality control and misapplication of the reflective coating of the LCD display. Companies like Apple have launched replacement policies for the defective touch devices until upgraded outputs have been released to meet the expectations of the clients. Software updates have not proved effective so far. In fact, they have just alleviated the screen problems and have proved no final solution to fixing iPod touch screen problems.

Debbie – for the itouch that stays magnified out of the blue.
Go to itunes and select universal access on your itouch and unclick zoom. This happened to mine and the link below explains the fix.

Hello there i have an ipod 3rd genreration touch and every time i turn it on is show’s a picture of a itunes and usb cord pointing ay itunes.
my sleep button does not work and every time i open it asks me to turn it of or will just flicker on and of 4 a long time
ok, ive been really careful with my ipod touch 2 gen, only dropped it once because someone bumped me, and in the past month the backlight won’t turn on. I usually put it in sleep and when i press the home button to awaken it, the light comes on. There are a few spots on the screen that if you apply slight pressure, the light turns off. The ipod remains on and intact, but there isnt a illuminating light. Its been a month and now the light wont come on at all, resetting it wont work, neither does adjusting brightness, double tapping the home button, or any other various techniques. Any advice would help. Thank you.
