3rd Generation iPod Touch with white.

i have a 3rd generatin ipod touch and it has a white screen. what do i do with it?

Let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try again.
If still not successful that indicates an hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Have you tried connecting the device to iTunes in recovery mode and restoring it? See this article for instructions on getting your iPod into recovery mode.

  • My 3rd Generation iPod touch with iOS 5.1.1 is not able to download emails inside a label or folder in different email a/c imap or exchange??

    Hi,
    I upgraded to iOS 5.1.1 and not I am not able to download emails withing a folder or label (gmail) for any a/c configured with imap or exchange.

    Thank you for your reply. We did establish that the mail was in fact coming in but could not be seen in the actual MAC MAIL application. I just posted the following update:
    It is also a problem with POP3, not just IMAP. This seems to be widespread. My MAC Mail was working fine until the 10.10.1 update. Geek Squad Agents spent almost 8 hours trying to figure this out and get me up and running again. They did EVERYTHING! And I do mean EVERYTHING (a shout out to them for going above and beyond with this!) Nothing worked. It seems that no changes were made to MAC MAIL in the upgrade and it is still the version used in Mavericks. It also seems that it is NOT compatible with the 10.10.1 upgrade and therefore the PLIST file becomes corrupt even with a re-build (we re-built mine 2 times). They recommended a complete reinstall of 10.10.1, but due to the holiday selling season I'm going to wait until JAN to take my computer in to Best Buy for this. I'm also hoping that Apple will send out an update fixing this issue before then. In the mean time, they have installed Mozilla Thunderbird (a free open source mail app) so that I can send and receive email via my computer!
    Apple will need to fix this but until them I'm recommending anyone with this problem try a complete reinstall or use another email application on their computer.

  • I have a 3rd generation iPod Touch and just did the update to IOS 5. Now I can't connect to my Netgear wifi router. My iPhone connects fine along with all of my other laptops etc. I have the router set with WPA-PSK [TKIP] security and an access list.

    I have a 3rd generation iPod Touch and just did the update to IOS 5. Now I can't connect to my Netgear wifi router. My iPhone connects fine along with all of my other laptops etc. I have the router set with WPA-PSK [TKIP] security and an access list. I've confirmed the mac address is included on that list and that the password is correct. Under choses netwrok I select the network and it just goes into a spin. I have tried removing the password and the access list settings and it still will not complete the connection to the router thus no internet access. The routers firmware is also up to date. This thing worked fine before this update and I've already tried to restore from backup. Any ideas or is the wifi nic bad in this thing with the new apple firmware update? Any fix?

    Thanks Bob, I don't know why but it all of a sudden worked a few days later. It's a mystery but at least problem solved.

  • HT4972 Is the update compatible with 3rd Generation Ipod Touch

    Hello Im JS.Is the update compatible with 3rd Generation Ipod Touch. Thank You have a nice day.

    What update?
    iOS 5 is compatible with a 3G (as well as 4G) iPod. However, if you are stuck with 4.2.1 that indicates that you really have a 2G iPod. those can only go to 4.1.2. See:
    Identifying iPod models
    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

  • HT1353 I just purchased a 3rd generation Ipod Touch and the latest software is iOS 4.2.1 and I'd like to download some Apps (facebook, words with friends, etc.), but they all need iOS 5. Help!

    I just purchased a used 3rd generation Ipod Touch and the latest software is iOS 4.2.1 and I have been trying to download apps (Facebook, Words w/Friends, etc.), but they all say I need to have iOS 5. Help!

    Here are some tools to search for compatible apps (The first one is my recommendation).
    iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
    Vintapps 3.1.3 - paid app.
    Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
    I personally havent looked for any clones of Words With Friends, but I bet you can find something.
    Here are a couple apps which say they are compatible with Facebook:
    Chatnow for Facebook
    Friends Planet 2
    Quickly for Facebook with Video Chat

  • HT4972 I am attempting to update the software on my 3rd generation ipod touch using itunes.  I understand I must erase and restore everything first.  Must I do this with my ipod plugged in to my pc?

    I am attempting to update the software on my 3rd generation ipod touch. I understand I need to erase and restore my device first.  Must I do this with it plugged into my pc? 

    All you have to do is connect the iPod to our computer and update via iTunes. You do not have to seperately erase and restore the iPod. That is done automatically as part of the update process.
    To update see:
    iOS 4: Updating your device to iOS 5 or later
    You need iTunes 10.5 or later on the computer. Y will go to iOS 5.1.1. the last update fopr the 3G

    An iPod can pn;y sync wiht one iTunes kibrary and the new computer is a new iTunes library:

    - Transfer other music by using a third-party probgram like one of those dicussed here:

    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup

  • 3rd generation ipod touch that will no longer sync but charges

    I have a 3rd generation ipod touch.  It was syncing to my itunes just fine and then one day it stopped syncing.  It shows that its charging but never syncs anything.  When i click to do a manual sync, it goes through the process but does not transfer any music.  Any suggestions.  I am running windows 7 64bit if that makes any difference with the newest version of itunes. 

    On your computer go to the control panel (hover in the lower right corner) then programs, add/remove programs
    Uninstall iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Service, Apple Application Support then go to apple.com and redownload and reinstall iTunes and try again.
    You won't lose any content, you're not deleting that, just the programs that access them.
    What is thought to happen is that sometimes a new version of itunes doesn't update the drivers in those other two programs. The only way to update the drivers is to force it by uninstalling the programs which allows itunes to write the correct ones.
    My iPad and iPod did exactly the same thing and this is how I fixed it.

  • 3rd generation iPod touch syncing issues

    The last time I tried to sync my iTunes account through a wired connection between my Macbook Pro and 3rd generation iPod touch, I had some major issues.
    First: It deleted the YouTube, iBooks, Netflix, Dropbox, Facebook, and Kindle apps from my iPod and will not let me reinstall them because they are "not compatible with this iPod." This is really annoying.  It means I can never sync my computer with my iPod again.  The only way I can get those apps on my iPod is if I go to the store in the iPod and download each one individually.
    Second: Some songs that I have recently acquired will not sync with my iPod because they are not the right format or something.  I never had issues with this before.  This song is in the same format as some songs I aready have on the iPod.
    Solutions I have tried:  I tried reinstalling iTunes and it didn't help.  I tried reseting my iPod to factory settings and starting with a "new iPod," twice.  This did not help either.
    My Question: Is this an issue because my iPod is out of date and means that I am just SOL or can it be fixed?

    The shuffle and iPod touch use different drivers.

  • 3rd Generation iPod Touch battery won't hold a charge.

    My 3rd Generation iPod touch has been very reliable for the past few years, but recently I've been noticing a decrease in its battery life. The battery will now, on a full charge, last about 4 hours on continuous usage. Is this normal? I recall it lasting longer before.
    Thanks!

    Very likely that the barger is wearing out. That happens with time/charge/discharge cycles. 4 hours is standar for an old iPod like yurs.
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished with a new battery for $79. They do not fix yours.

    A third-party place like the following will replace the battery for less. Google for more.

    Replace the battery yourself if you are up to it. Yo can purchase a replacement for about $10

  • 3rd generation iPod Touch not recognized by Mac & iTunes!

    My 3rd generation ipod touch is not recognized on iTunes but is recognized when I plug it into a different computer. I've tried reinstalling iTunes numerous times and have referred to other online tutorials. With no success, my iPod will still not show up on my Macbook, and I've never experienced a problem like this before with either device. My mac and itunes still recognize my iPhone so I don't know why they would recognize one device but no the other. Solutions?
    Any feedback will help greatly. Thanks.

    It should work fine.  I have a 1st gen shuffle, and it still works...
    If you are updating to iTunes 11.x for the first time, iTunes may hide the sidebar initially, which is where the shuffle appears.
    If the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is not visible, from the iTunes menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.  In the sidebar, the shuffle should appear under DEVICES.

  • How do I transfer purchases from my new iPad to my 3rd generation iPod touch?

    I bought a couple albums on my new iPad. I went to transfer the purchases onto my 3rd generation iPod touch but, even signed into my iTunes account, it seems to have no idea there were any purchases. It will, however, show obviously purchased items on my iPod but that's it. I have easily transferred items from my iPod touch to my iPad and the iTunes on my PC but cannot get it to go from my iPad to the iPod. I'm thinking I might need to update iTunes on my iPod but I'm not sure how to do that, if that's even the issue. 

    You can redownload iTunes purchases directly to an iDevice by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    With iTunes 10.3 or later and iOS 4.3.3 or later, you can download your previous purchases directly to your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or computer.
    Otherwise you will have to do it via iTunes:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    then sync with iTunes.
