1st gen ipod touch microphone isnt working

i use my ipod touch to record my dj sets with numark mixdeck. it worked for months. no the ipod is saying no microphone is connect to use the voice memo. HELP please

THe first generation iPod Touch did not hae an internal microphone.  I don't remember if it supported the one in-line with the headphones or not, but I think it did.  I would guess that you are no longer using an iPhone headset and are just using a normal set of earbuds...

  • 1st gen ipod touch will not work with new iTunes 11.help!

    1st generation Ipod Touch.  I ran an update on my ITunes on my PC, and my IPOD will no longer connect to my itunes.  Please help.  If at all possible.

    iTunes 11 works with all model iPods.
    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears. and Control+B to show the Menu bar

  • BOSE Mk1 Soundock & 1st Gen iPod Touch + Electric/Static Noise**

    I have recently bought a Bose Mk1 Soundock for my 1st Gen iPod Touch, at first worked fine, brilliant lil gadet, but then it started to generate a reeeely high pitched electric/static noise when the battery was fully charged when music was both on or off, i returned and got an exchange for a brand new bose which didnt solve the problem so i can only assume its the ipod, so i put in a service request with apple, off it went and came back 'un-repaired' as apple 'could not reproduce the problem/s'?? since then it has started generating this noise regardles of battery level or music on/off and is reely, reely, reely annoying and is rendering the unit virtually unusable with the bose, am i the only one who can hear this or is anyone else having/had the same problem??!?

    Hey
    Is it this noise:

    If so, I'm having the same problem. I've emailed B&W support about it. It doesn't occur without the ipod docked. Doesn't seem to be a problem with other docks though, so it could be fixable with a firmware update. In fact, it wasn't ever a problem with the original Zeppelin firmware, only after the update.

  • Will 1st gen ipod touch still work with new itunes library on new computer (transfer didn't work from old computer)

    Ok, so I have a new computer and wanted to transfer my itunes library from my old computer. I could not get the files to transfer. I downloaded the newest version of itunes and see that I can download my previously purchased music to the new computer. I have mp3's that I can add in on my own so I don't have a problem starting over in itunes.
    My question is what happens when I plug in my 1st gen ipod touch and try to sync??? Will it erase what is on my ipod or will I be able to move the stuff from my ipod into my new itunes library?? Any info would be great...I'm happy with how my ipod is set up so I really don't want to mess with a good thing. Also, will I need to update and of my software on my ipod since it's 1st generation??
    Thanks for the help!!

    You can only sync to one iTunes library/computer. If you do sync the iPod is erases and its contents replaced with what is in the iTunes library of the second computer.
    To avoid that see:
    Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive: Apple Support Communities
    Yes, the 1G works with the latest iTunes.
    To transfer iTunes purchases:

    In iTunes 11 use Control+B to show the Menu bar then go to iTunes>File>Devices>Transfer Purchases

  • Why doesn't Nike+ work with the 1st Gen Ipod touch with 2.1 software?

    Why doesn't Nike+ work with the 1st Gen Ipod Touch with 2.1 software?

    The second gen iPod Touch has firmware version 2.1.1(5F138) whereas the 1st Gen only allows 2.1 (5F137). Don't know if that has anything to do with it, but it's likely.
    Why doesn't Apple allow those with the Nike+iPod sports kit to use their external sensor on the 1st Gen iPod Touch?!?! I can't see why the sensor would be incompatible with the right firmware upgrade!!

  • 1st Gen iPod touch Keeps Having to Be Re-Registered with iTunes

    My 1st Gen. iPod touch works very well, with one exception. Every few weeks I'll turn it on and I'll get the picture of the cable and the iTunes icon - which is what you get the first time you use your iPod touch and means it needs to be registered with iTunes. This will happen both if I plug it in to my charger and when I just simply turn it on with the power button. I'll then take the touch to my computer and use my syn cable and plug it in. When the iTunes window comes up, on the left column it shows my touch, but the name I'd given it has gone back to the default name. I'll rename it again, but again within a week or two the same thing happens again. I'm stumped. I'm using an iMac running Leopard 10.5.6 and a white MacBook, also with 10.5.6. All my software on the touch, MacBook and iMac are up to date. I have very few apps on my touch and lots of room left on it to store stuff. Can anyone help? Thanks.

    Hi Brenda,
    That screen, with the iTunes icon and the USB cable, means the iPod is in recovery mode.
    This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 provides more information about the mode and how-to use it to restore your iPhone or iPod touch.
    Are you using any 3rd-party accessories with the iPod touch?
    Does the accessory have the Made for iPod logo?
    Try restoring the iPod again, setting it up as a new iPod, and testing it without any 3rd-party accessories.
    If the issue persists, the iPod may need hardware repair. Just make a reservation to have a Genius take a look at it or call AppleCare.

  • 1st Gen ipod touch no longer keeping time

    As the title says my 1st gen ipod touch no longer keeps time when I let it go completely flat. It keeps resetting itself back to the default time and date. Started happening in the last 6 months. I'm running IOS 2.2.1 never bothered updating to IOS 3 because of a known issue with the volume bar disappearing which I don't think had even been fixed. It hasn't been synced with the itunes for 2-3 years. The laptop with the itunes library for this device hasn't worked for a couple of years and haven't sync my ipod to a new computer due to some of the apps I used and some of my song/video purchases no longer being available and I don't want to risk losing those purchases if doing a factory resets not going to make a difference. Battery life for my ipod is still pretty good, get 3 weeks out of it when I leave it in standby mode using it for an alarm clock and about a week listening to music going to and from work only a few hours playing games or videos but that was never to great to begin with. My Ipod touch does have a cracked screen, but it's been cracked for the last 5 years. No other problems. Is else have this issue? Will factory reset make a difference or is it just something to put up with till my ipod touch dies?

    It sounds like the battery is really dying and does not have enough voltage to maintain the time when the iPod shuts off due to low battery.
    You can try restoring to factory settings/new iPod and see if that helps.

  • ANY radio app for 1st gen iPod touch?? Even with Wifi!?

    Firstly, I know the 1st gen ipod touch does not have a radio receiver..this is not my problem.
    I've been looking for an app that I can listen to the radio on..even through wifi...but am not finding any that will work with the 1st gen. For example, I download TuneIn radio which I have on my itunes, blackberry, and tablet...but it is only compatible with newer generations of the ipod touch. I am on version 3.1.3 which I believe is the most up-to-date.
    In short, I'm absolutely fine to use wifi to listen to the radio, but simply can't find an app (ideally a free one) that will even let me sync the app from my itunes to the ipod.
    Suggestions would be very welcome!

    Try my web app. I have over 100 stations of all genres. Just enter the following URL in Safari and tap on the orange music icon on top right. Also, you can add a Home screen app icon for easy future access.

  • I have an 1st gen Ipod touch that runs 3.1.3 IOS.

    1st Gen Ipod touch 3.1.3 ios. No apps will work on this ios is there anything I can do to fix this? Thanks

    There are only a few apps currently available for the 1G iPod. There is no way to search for only compatible apps. You just have to look at the Requirements section of apps that interest you.
    The only real solution is to purchase a newer model iPod

  • 1st gen ipod touch apps compatability

    We have 1st gen ipod touch's. Kids say that facebook and You Tube dont work on it. Apparently ios software is too old and cant be upgraded?
    Is this true?

    Unfortunately yes it is.  The newest version of the Facebook app require iOS 4 or later.  The 1G iPod Touch can only be updated as high as iOS 3.1.3 and there are no downloads of older versions of the app available in the App Store.
    However, YouTube should still work as it is a default app that comes preloaded with iOS.

  • 1st Gen iPod Touch cannot login to iTunes or App Store

    My relative's 1st Gen iPod Touch (fully updated) cannot login to iTunes or App Store. Specifically, when the prompt on the iPod touch for their Apple ID, they can type in their ID and password fine, but tapping on "cancel" or "OK" does nothing. The iPod touch is effectively frozen, the only option being to hit the Home button to get out.
    This happens when trying to purchase an item in iTunes, the App Store, and when accessing the Apple ID account through Settings.app on the iPod touch.
    An Apple Store genius recommended restoring, but this did not help. Other internet features (safari, mail, facebook, etc.) work fine. They are still able to download apps through iTunes and then sync them over. Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    EconBass

    Thanks lllaass,
    We just tried to do a fresh restore to factory settings. Unfortunately, the exactly same problem persists.
    A little more information, after the username and password are entered, OK can be pressed, but the prompt doesn't go away, and there is a persistent "loading..." sign in the background. This is where the iPod hangs. Here's a picture of what it looks like.
    Thanks,

  • App for 1st gen iPod Touch

  • Returning 1st gen ipod touch for 2nd gen?

    Does anyone know if I could return my 1st gen ipod touch for the 2nd gen or even give it to them and get money off the 2nd gen? I want to return my first gen because i have noticed that some of the apps that I want to download require a mic. If you no if i can trade mine in please respond. Thank you

    ... and the second generation Touch doesn't have a mic anyway. Chris will correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe, if you want to use a mic-dependant App on a 2nd gen Touch, then you need to buy a headphone/mic combination to plug in instead of standard headphones. I don't know +at all+ about the 3rd gen.
    Non-mic Apps can run on a 1st gen Touch if you purchase the software upgrade, but whether that also includes mic-Apps, well, once again, I don't know. (Not much I do know really, is there? )
    Perhaps you need to consider how much you need mic dependant Apps before rushing into the major expense of a Touch which may not actually meet your needs. There's always the iPhone of course.
    Phil
    Ah, there you go, in this post - http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2322224&tstart=30 - sparky67 says the 3rd gen 32G and 64G Touch comes with a microphone/headphone combination.

  • Installing old apps on 1st gen iPod touch

    Hi all!!
       Ok I have a 1st Gen iPod touch and I have 2 apps that were updated from iTunes but when updating it
    said that it couldn't update due to old system but the old apps stayed on my iPod but when I did a restore
    the apps are not on my iPod and it say that the apps are no longer compatible with my old iPod. I have checked
    in my Time Machine and I have the old apps vers that USED to work with my touch but when I did a restore via
    Time Machine it doesn't work (that way). Is there a way that I can restore those two apps with Time Machine so that
    I can make it work again for my touch??? They are still on my iTunes but under the new vers that will only
    work under IOS 4+. Any help would be welcomed!!!
    Serge

    How can I delete the new ones?? Even if I do, the iTunes site doesn't have the OLD vers that would still work with
    my iPod I do have'em on my TimeMachine but don't know how to restore them to make it work. I wish that iTunes
    would keep all generation of apps so if you need to restore you'll be able to get the old app back. I can't even use
    ebay app no more. So sad. Any way thanks for the help lllaass!!!

  • 1st Gen iPod touch not charge and not recognized by iTunes

    I bought 1st gen iPod touch without cable.  It won't charge or be recognized by iTunes.  Purchased a new 1st gen cable, but still doesn't work.  Do I still have the wrong cable, or is there another problem?

    Start here:

    Did the sell say it was working?
    Per the Apple store, the current dock-to-USB cable can be used with all iPod Touches.
