2nd Generation Ipod WIFI Challenges HELP PLEASE

I have a 2nd generation Ipod Touch that I cant get to log onto my WIFI network at home? I have a Blackberry device that all I do is put the network WEP key in and no challenges at all, although the Touch finds the network it wont connect?
If anyone could help that would be fantastic.
Many Thanks
Arran

Hi Arran,
Try Resetting Network Settings on the iPhone, go to Settings> General> Reset> Reset Network Settings.
How many characters are in the WEP password? You'll want to use a 5 or 13 character WEP password to improve compatibility with all devices, or switch to WPA2 personal.

  • 2nd Generation Ipod Touch Problem- Help please!

    Hello,
    I have a brand new ipod touch 2nd generation and when I start a podcast, only on occassion, the play icon in the top right corner blinks very rapidly and the podcast does not play at all. It as as though the ipod touch is playing and stopping play of the podcast at very high speeds! When I push the home button, and try to get back into my music list, the same problem occurs. When I hit the home button, the arrow for play is still blinking rapidly and then I have to restart my ipod touch. It is very frustrating as I can't play the podcasts that I have enjoyed on my ipod classic!
    Please help me!

  • HT1414 2nd generation iPod Touch software upgrade please?

    Why is it that only 3rd and 4th generation iPod Touches can upgrade to the iOS5 software? I can't run the apps I want because I have a 2nd generation. I know it's old... but it works great still! - just not compatible! :-P very very frustrating!! I dont want to be forced to buy a new device when this one works fine - Is it completely impossible to upgrade the software???

    now i feel silly. i have a 1G not a 2G. >.< grr...

  • My 2nd Generation ipod is Uresponsive, Help!

    When i turn it on, and type in my 4digit passcode, it is very delayed and often freezes. Then , when it it on the normal screen where it shows my apps, it appears to be fine. It is fine when playing games, and still connects to the internet fine, however, when i try to do any form of typing, it is very delayed (just like my passcode). Also, when i try to play any music, sound, or video (even youtube videos) it does not work! Any suggestions?

    - First try resetting yur Pod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next restore the iPod from backup via iTunes
    - Last, restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod via iTunes.

  • 2nd Generation Ipod touch stuck in recovery. PLEASE HELP!

    My 2nd Generation Ipod touch is stuck in recovery mode. At least i think it's recovery mode, the connect to itunes thing comes up and won't go away when I try to turn it on. I am willing to restore it but Itunes won't let me. When I press restore, an error comes up that says "The Ipod software update server could not be contacted." I have NEVER had any problems with this ipod before, except that it's a natural piece of crap, but yeah, it has worked completely fine until today when it randomly turned off (it may have died) and is now in recovery mode. It is not jailbroken or modified in any way. Also where Itunes usually gives you your ipod information I get this;
    Name: Ipod
    Capacity: n/a
    Software Version: n/a
    Serial Number: n/a
    Please help me....

    Try:
    iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server

    I went to turn my 2nd generation ipod touch off by pressing the top button, and it is now frozen on the screen that has the "slide to power of" bar across the top and the "cancel" bar on the bottom. I have tried to press both buttons but nothing seems to happen... and it will not restart at all. I also tried plugging it into itunes and it WILL charge but not turn on at all. Any advice would be much appreciated!

    Hello, Welcome to discussions.
    If you have done both the methods in the article below which looks like you have. Plus you connected to a power source and it is not progressing past current screen. You have a couple options.
    1. allow touch to drain the battery, then reconnect and allow it to charge
    2. Make an appointment at your local apple retail store and or contact your iPod Touch support group.

  • PLEASE IGNORE LAST QUESTION RE:  2nd Generation IPod Shuffle Connection

    Let's try that again. I currenty have a 2nd generation ipod shuffle that works on my laptop just fine...most of the time. My roomate, however, is having a lot of problems trying to get her's to work on her desktop pc. I need to know if she can use my laptop with her IPod Shuffle as well. I think she can, I just do not have a clue how to do it. Any help with step by step instruction would be great! Normally I Know just about everything with Windows. This one has me confused. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!

    You select one or more songs in the Music library. Then you click-hold-drag the song(s) and drop onto the shuffle under DEVICES. If you don't see the shuffle under DEVICES, click the little triangle to drop down the list.
    The easier way to put songs onto the shuffle is create a new Playlist. Name it "shuffle songs" or whatever you want. Put the songs you want on your shuffle into this playlist. Then connect your shuffle, go to the shuffle's pane in iTunes, and click on the Contents tab. At the bottom of that tab is the Autofill controls. Select to +Autofill from+ the playlist you just created and populated. Click the Autofill button to sync.
    This is better because you can decide what to put on the shuffle the next time without the shuffle connected, AND when you sync, it's done all at one time, instead a few songs at a time if you do it manually.

  • Can Apple help owners of 2nd Generation iPod touch upgrade the OS beyond 4.2.1?

    Hi,
    Can Apple help owners of 2nd Generation iPod touch upgrade the OS beyond 4.2.1?
    If Apple cannot help us, what is the alternative without us hacking the device?

    Even hacking it you cannot go further than the equivalent to 4.2.1. The only thing Apple could possibly do is add more RAM.

  • HT1353 Can I download i OS 5 onto my 2nd generation iPod touch? I would like it to link with iCloud from my iPad 2 for music. Is that possible please?

    Can I download i OS 5 onto my 2nd generation iPod touch? Is it possible to get my iPad music via iCloud onto the iPod 2nd generation? If yes, please can you tell me how? Thanks

    You can download purchases from itunes as long as they still carry them.  they may not be available forever.
    All of your music and everything esle should be on your computer and backed up with your regular backup copy of your computer.
    You can download most itunes purchases on ipad, ipod touch and iphone.
    I see no reason to have an ipod and an iphone.
    If your ipad/iphone/ipod crash you would have to restore using itunes on your computer.
    I would not reccommend using an iphone ipod/ipad without a computer.

    So, your iPhone (and new shuffle) still work properly with iTunes, correct?

    Are you able to see it in Windows, and maybe change the drive letter back to E:?
