my ipod nano has horizaontal lines through the bottom portion of the screen and the left half of the screen is black, the right half of the screen changes from red, to blue to orange, etc. Any idea how to fix that?

White stripes suddenlt appeared at the bottom of the screen on my ipod nano a few weeks ago. I figured it was just from use and that it is an older model- I could still see through them and use the device. Yesterday, only the left half of the screen was visible, the other side was black. This morning, the stripes are still there, all the way across the screen on the bottom, the left side os black and the right sise is red most of the time. Any ideas on what happened and how to fix it?

My iPod nano has a grey line in the middle which Changes size and colour sometimes it's one connected line and sometimes a disconnected line. This started happening after i got on a 11 hour plane flight it's appeared during the middle of the flight but now the line is only sometimes there I have a video of it there so if i take it to the Apple Store will they still repair it or replace it ?????

Hello scgreco,

I would be concerned as well if my iPod nano screen had stripes and was partially black. I found a resource that I think would help in a situation like this.

I recommend following the steps in this troubleshooting assistant for your iPod nano model:
