Apple iPod touch 8 GB (1st Generation)

Hi I just got and ipod touch 1st gen and the version it has is 2.2.1 but I can't download any apps
what can I do?

I don't think an 8GB 2nd-generation iPod touch would be worth $100, though, since it can't run the most recent versions of iOS nor many apps. You can get a new 8GB fourth-generation iPod touch for $179 (from places like Amazon, or from Apple after the 10% credit they'd give you for recyling that broken 2nd-gen unit), and used ones for as little as $130 (or perhaps less from private sellers). 3rd-gen iPods (32GB and 64GB) probably can be found for around that price as well. So it might be a better use of your funds to put the $100 toward a more recent iPod touch.
Worth thinking about, anyway.
Regards.

I saw a thread saying to purchase the newest software (that was posted a few years ago) I paid 4.95 for the software and it's still saying it can't be updated.  Am I just SOL??

    The 1G iPod can only go as high as 3.1.3. The 1G does not have an internal speaker or volume buttons on the upper left edge.

    ok I Do have a 5th Generation Apple iPod Touch 64GB & I Need Help or just needed to ask a Question ok, when I Turn on My Apple iPod Touch 64GB or when I Turn on The iBlason iPod Touch Battery Charger I Have on it to Turn on The Apple iPod Touch 64GB Well when I 1st Turn it on it's Taking 1 or 2 Secounds Longer to Turn on & I Wanted to know if that Normal??? or is it mean that My Apple iPod Touch 64GB is going to Die??? that was a Question i needed to ask
    also a Few Day's ago when I Wanted to Turn on My Apple iPod Touch 64GB it did not even want to Turn on or do anything & I Never Shut it Down or Turned it off???
    I Was reading on the internet about this problem & it said that I Had to Restart My Apple iPod Touch 64GB & I Did & Everything went back on again so just needed to get info about this problem if anyone knows about this???

    Things like that happen and is normal.
    If you can't turn it on:
    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable                                                       
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    My Apple iPod Touch 4th Generation was stolen if the thief signed out of my iCloud account on the device will it go away on the web map on my computer and keep me from locking it remotely? I was asking my grandmother who works in apple tech support at at&t but she didnt know. so im hoping somebody will come by and say yes to my question because my iPod touch is still appearing in my iCloud.com account.

    Yes. If it was signed out from iCloud, it will disappear from the Devices list in Find my iPhone.

  • I Ordered Apple IPOD touch 5th generation. I am going to INDIA on 18th October. Can I get it before??

    Hi Friends,
    I Ordered Apple IPOD touch 5th generation. I am going to INDIA on 18th October. Can I get it before??
    Or else i has to cancel the order? please provide your valuable comments on this.

    I cancelled my preorder when the available date changed from September 21 to October. I will wait until it is in the Apple retail store. I want to see the demo and evaluate  iOS 6. Too many iOS 6 issues to do a pig in a poke on this one.
    If the device is not available until the end of October I'll wait until Black Friday and enjoy the discount. I will visit the Apple Store that day to purchase my gift to self items :)

  • Upgrading Apple iPod Touch (MC544LL/A 32GB 4th Generation) from iOS 4.3.5 to iOS 5

    could some boody guide me about how to upgrade an Apple iPod Touch (MC544LL/A 32GB 4th Generation) from iOS 4.3.5 to iOS 5. i have itunes 10.6.1. when i try to upgrade it gives me an option to upgrade it to iOS 5.1.1 but i dont want to do that as i have a custom app which can only run on iOS 5.0. Any suggestions would be welcome
    regards

    Kalpesh:
    "Back in the day" one could roll back an iPod to a previous version because of how Apple controlled updates.  Later on, Apple decided to change the process.  That change makes it impossible to roll back to a previous version of iOS.
    Basically, Apple forces iTunes to "phone home," and request permission to update your device.  At that point Apple's update server looks at your device type, device id, and iOS version.  If you are running an older version of iOS, and if your hardware is supported by the latest version, then iTunes is allowed to update your device.  Roll back are not permitted.  Period, end of story....
    So then you have two choices: 
    1.  Do not update your iPod to 5.1.1
    2.  Have the app written for 5.1.1 and then upgrade your iPod.
    Oh, and if you still have doubts, let your mouse cursor do the walking and search the archives...  And Google will no doubt find TONS of info about this...

  • Travel adapter for IPod touch 32 GB 3rd generation

    Dear All,
    I do have a brand new IPod touch 32 GB, 3rd generation. As I will be travelling to the US I need a travel adapter. The travel adapter offered by Apple is per description only compatible with the 1st and 2nd generation.
    Are you experienced? Does the original equipment also fit to the 3rd generation?
    Thanks for your help in advance

    There was a time when my iPod earphones bonked out. The volume/remote control did not work and the same things that you all said happened (i.e.: voice control turns on and off by itself, songs shuffle on their own, the song turns chipmunky, etc.) but these stopped when I took out the earphones. I replaced them with a new pari and all these did not recur.
    My guess is that when the speakers/earphones you use have a problem with the plug thingy (the one where you plug into the unit), this may cause these erratic behaviors. Try replacing the speakers/earphones and see what happens.
    I have since brought my earphones to the shop since my unit was still under warranty, and they have replaced it with a new pair. It's working perfectly now.
