The screen of my iTouch 5 suddenly went black.

It can still register my finger and I can still play my music through double tapping the home button and pressing the middle "Play" button. But I cant see anything... Like the screen is literally just BLACK. Help?

iPod touch (5th generation), iOS 6.1.4

Try:

- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost

Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at

least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

- Restore from backup. See:

iOS: How to back up

- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
