I had some odd behavior from my ipod touch today. It was working fine w/ over 50% battery remaining. Then when I went to turn it on again, it wouldn't turn on. Specifically the screen stayed dark when I pushed the home button and/or the power button. I even held down the power button in hopes of seeing a power off option, but no luck.
I plugged it in when I got home to a charging station and the screen appeared again. I was able to use it for a little while and turned off the screen. Then when I came back to use it again, the screen was black again. I tried to stick it in the charger again (my logitch pure-fi anywhere2) but no luck this time. So I connected it to my mac which was powered on and again, no luck. It did, however, show up on itunes, so I know that it is working, but for some reason the screen just didn't want to turn it on.
As a last resort, I restored the ipod touch after backing it up and that seemed to resolve the problem (at least for now). I did not hold the power & home button until it reset - I forgot about that option.
My question is - what happened? Does this mean there may be something wrong with my screen or was it simply a software issue?
