MY IPOD TOUCH SCREEN IS CRACKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Ipod Touch screen is cracked under the outer clear protective screen. The crack is applying pressure to the "touch" sensitive part of the ipod causing it to press the button that is in the cracks place. WHAT DO I DO????? I am so stressed out trying to find out how to fix it. On the ipod touch u lock and unlock the screen and I can't even unlock the screen because of the crack. I am begging anyone who knows what to do. Please...

    There is a huge crack in the screen on my ipod going from corner to corner. The display has'nt been affected and neither has the touch function but it doesn't look very nice and want to get it fixed quick. As i am not willing to pay for a new one can any one tell me were i can get the crack fixed?

    it has cracks all over the top part of the screen because i dropped on pavement.

    i dropped my walking to the car and everything works fine its just that the cracks are there from top to bottem. Is there any way that i would be able to fix it because i dont want my touch to develop problems from the damage that it received.

    Your touch screen needs to be replaced. Tthere are third party iPod repair services, that will fix it for cheap. Also, I found an DYI iPod repair guide, so you can do it yourself too, not that difficult. Part is available on Ebay.If you can't do it yourself, have a tech savy friend do it for you.http://www.portatronics.com/guide

My ipod touch is craked

Hi

The only solution to this screen problem is to replace the screen.
You can purchase the screen for example from this website: http://www.powerbookmedic.com/iPod-Touch-LCD-Display-Screen-p-17191.html

You may be able to get a cheaper deal from ebay or from other websites.

Cracked ipod touch screen

If I am not mistaking the warranty does not cover being left in a hot car. Try calling apple and tell them you just got your Ipod touch 2 days ago and you were downloading songs to it and while doing so it overheated and cracked. Thats considered a mechanical problem. Good Luck!
