My iPod screen went blank after I clicked "OK" to an update notice on iTunes. It plays in my car and on my player and with my headphones but I can't see anything on the screen, althought it it backlit and I can't turn off the backlighting. It beeps twice when I put it into a player. I have already restored it - no help. HELP -- it's only six months old and warranty was for three months.

to update your ipod touch second gen to 4.1 version you must connect to your itunes account on your computer with ipod attatched sync all apps, music, videos, everything because it will delete everything and needs everything backed up. then go to your ipod on itunes and it will say update, click it it will take around half an hour to update and restore you ipod fully.
