Buying 16 GB iPod Touch but do I have to buy the usb adapter ?

Title says it all.
Is there anything about the Apple usb adapter that means that no other 5 volt usb adapter would work with the iPod ?

Mains adapter?
Depends on make/model but I think there should be no problem with older versions, unlike charging straight to the 32 pin connector via some older docks.

  • I upgraded my ipod touch but my apps have disappeared

    I upgraded my ipod touch but my apps have disappeared

    If in the USA you can redownload them here:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    If not, yur can just repurchases them.  Yu will not be chared again as long as you are signed into the same iTunes account that originally purchased them.
    Were the apps in the iTunes library of he computer on which yu did the update?  If not they will not be n the iPod after the update. Apps themselves (app data is) are not in th backup that iTunes make as the first step of the update. They are synced from the iTunes library to the iPod at the end of the update.

  • Can you give me some reasons about why I need to buy an iPod touch 5.Although I have the iPhone ,iPod nano, iPad ,MacBook pro,I think the iPod touch 5 is so attractive that I can't help buying it at once.If I have it,what I can do with it,can you tell me?

    All I can say is that I REALLY like my Touch 4th gen because I have all sorts of capabilities in a small form: e-mail, web browsing, news, weather, books, magazines, etc. etc.  Plus lots and lots of apps out there, including so many free ones.  I use the Cloud a lot so it's great to have everything sync'd to my MacBookPro (e-mail, Evernote, Pocket, etc.)
    It would be easier, though, to do some of this, especially magazines, on the iPad mini, but, again, I love the small size of the Touch. 
    As for the 5th gen instead of the 4th, the fifth has Siri and the 3D feature in maps, which are great.  And I'm sure it's a lot faster in iOS 6 than the 4th gen.  And cool colors! 
    Don't know if this helps . . .

  • I am trying to restore an older iPod Touch, but do not have the passcode.  I am getting an error message saying that I need to free up some space, but I cannot because I don't have the passcode and have never synced this device to my account.  Help..

    I am trying to restore an older iPod Touch, but do not have the passcode.  I am getting an error message saying that I need to free up some space, but I cannot because I don't have the passcode and have never synced this device to my account.  Help..

    If it is asking for the screen-lock passcode then:
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

    First try this:
    - Go on iTunes computer
    - plug in the iPod
    - authorize your device from store/authorize
    - iPod / transfer from iPod by right clicking on the left pane
    This will only transfer iTunes purchased music, not ripped CDs. and it is unnecessary now, as the music can just be downloaded from the cloud.

  • I've downloaded a rented movie and transferred to mi ipod touch but can't find it on the device - where do I find it to play

    I've downloaded a rented movie and transferred to my Ipod touch but can't find it on the device to watch it - where do I find it?

    Hi,
    Have you tried using your iPod's Search function to find the movie?  (The Search function is to the left of the home screen.) 
    Hope this helps!

  • My iPod touch 5g doesn't have weather in the notification center.

    My iPod touch 5g doesn't have weather in the notification center. Neither does the weather app determines my location.
    The maps also can't find the location.

    You do have Location Services turned on in Settings>Privacy, right?
    For location the iPod uses the location of nearby wifi routers that are in Apple's database. You do not have to be connected to the network/router to use that router's location. Thus, it appears that the iPod can't see a nearby router that is in Apple's database. Apple continuously updated their database based on info they obtain from iPhones. No one has been able to find a way to inform Apple of a router or correct is location.

  • Replacing an Ipod touch, but my I have re-installed my os.

    Hello, I recently got my third replacement Ipod touch, but before i got it I had to do a clean install on my computer. I am now trying to sync the iPod, but i do not know how to find my old app purchases. Any ideas?

    Sign into your iTunes account and select the option to view you purchase history. You can then redownload the app, abet one at a time, at no additional cost. See:

  • ITunes wants me to set up the iPod Touch - but I already have

    My daughter has a 4th gen iPod touch. When she got it about 6 months ago, I set it up by connecting to my MacBook Pro. Today I wanted to back it up, which we have never done before.  When I connect it to iTunes, the only options I get are to set it up from new or restore it from a backup. I don't have a backup obviously, and if I set it up as new, she will lose all the messages from her friends and the home movies she has made.
    Why don't I get the usual options to sync the iPod touch and back it up?

    Does the iPod work OK?

  • I am trying to download an app for my ipod touch, but its not showing up in the app store. Its the icess app for controlling a bluetooth helicopter

    I recently got my daughter an iCess RC helicopter. It works via bluetooth and can be used with Apple and Android devices. She has a ipod touch, but when trying to do a search for "iCess" in the app store, nothing comes up. It shows up on my PC in the itunes store, but how do I get it on the ipod touch or its apps store?
    Also having the same problem when trying to locate the app with my iPad and its app store. I got it installed on one of my android devices via the Google Play store so I know its there & works. Any ideas or suggestion on what is going on here with the iPod and iPad app stores?

    The RC helicopter's directions say its available in the App store for Apple and here it is in the iTunes store:
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/icess/id558793179?mt=8 (released on 6/19/2013)
    How do I get this to show up on my iPad and/or iPod touch app stores so I can then download and install it as needed?

  • ITunes says there is almost a GB of photos on my iPod touch, but I only have 6 pictures

    Hello Apple community:
    I have an 8GB iPod touch, 4th Gen. I am trying to make some space for movies, iOS 6 upgrades, etc. and I noticed on iTunes' "iPod touch summary page", there is almost a gig of pictures, even though I only have abou 6 pictures, and half aren't even hi-res! Is there a way to get iTunes to recognize that there are only 6 pictures?
    Thanks

    I had a similar situation with movies - 6G of phantom files.  Uncheck this box and do a sync.  Check it and sync again.

  • I had to replace the hardrive on my laptop. I have over 2000 photos in an album on my iPod Touch but I am unable to get the pictures off the iPod and back onto my computer. Suggestions?

    I am in need of assistance with syncing photos on my iPod onto my laptop. Had to replace the hardrive on the laptop and I'm unable to get the photos synced from the iPod.     

    - If the photos were taken by or saved to the iPod just use the computer's camera/image capture software to get them from the iPod.
    - If the photos were synced to the iPod you need a third-party program such as PhoneView of TouchCopy.

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If nothiing above helped, restore the iPhone to factory settings >  Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
