Can I run the Netflix app on a 1st generation Ipod Touch running 3.1.3?

I have a 1st generation ipod touch running ios 3.1.3. I want to run netflix on it but when I try to install from itunes I get the message "The app "Netflix" was not installed on the IPOD because it requires a newer version of IPOD software." I have read from goggling this issue that netflix streaming on the 1st gen ipod is possible. What am I doing wrong? Or is this not possible at all?

"The "reason" that Netflix will not work with iOS 3.1.3 is because Netflix does so much that iOS 3.1.3 cannot handle it. SImple."
This is untrue, as was stated earlier:
I was running netflix on an itouch first generation ios 3.1.3 untill the glich with the app store.  The newest update will not run on it now and I lost the original version when I reset the Itouch thinking the problem was on my end.
If you had said it's "incompatible" instead of "cannot handle it" or specified the version of the Netflix, perhaps the new Netflix app is so incredible, or rather it "does so much" MORE, you might be within the realm of having some useful input, but the following:
It would appear so!
leads me to understand you don't know what you're talking about or you're a wannabe company man and just lying.
If anyone else has useful information regarding running the Netflix app that certainly worked for us Netflix subscribers who are also 1g owners–and there are at least thousands, if not tens of thousands–and were using the app before we upgraded to 3.1.3 or restored and downloaded the latest Netflix app, it'd be great to hear from them.  1. 2. 3. SImple.

  • Does The contour flick case fit 1st generation ipod touch?

    So i am really really interested in the contour flick case (specifically because it comes in orange) but it says for second generation. I know the second generation has slimmer dimensions, but by how much? Please help! Thanks in advance!

    It will not fit the 1G iPod touch. I guaranty it.
    the 2G iPod touch is a completely different shape, and the 1G is bulkier.

  • App Updates with 1st gen iPod Touch running v2.1 OS

    Hello all,
    I got notification from the app store that I have a couple of updates and when I went to install the updates, it said that they are all ready installed and wouldn't give me the option to install. I have rebooted my 'Pod but that didn't help...anybody else having similar problems?

    I had a similar problem, the first install I tried was taking a very long time. After almost 15 minutes of nothing a message came up saying that authorization couldn't be verified and I needed to plug into iTunes. Instead of plugging back into iTunes, I just tried the update again and it worked fine.

  • 4th generation app on a 2nd generation ipod touch

    I recently purchased the Pages app for my 2nd generation ipod touch thinking it would be fine because it has the 4.2.1 software version on it.  Unfortunately I keep getting an error message that says I need a newer version, OS 4.2.8 or later.  When I check for updates, it says that I have the latest version.  What should I do?

    It sounds like you have a 2G iPod Touch, which can only go as high as iOS 4.2.1, meaning you are likely out of luck on this one. Use this article to help you verify what generation your iPod Touch is.

  • How can I see the last location of a now dead ipod touch 4G that had find my iphone turned on?

    How can I see the last location of a now dead ipod touch 4G that had find my iphone turned on? I can see my macbook but I cant see the last location of my ipod touch. I lost it a few weeks ago and figured it would show up. But it has not and I need it again for my job. Please help.

    There is nothing you can do now. There are apps available from the app store that would give you that information if installed before it was lost/stolen.

  • How do you get apps for the 1st generation iPod touch

    How do I get apps for the 1st generation iPod touch?

    By updating the iOS on the iPOd.  The 1G can go as high as 3.1.3.  That works with a lot of apps.  But some apps require a higher iOS and/or newer iPod.

  • Can I boost the DSL signal using my 1st Generation Airport Extreme or Express? Also, can I get wireless printing?

    Can I boost the DSL signal using my 1st Generation Airport Extreme or Express?
    I just moved into a house where they have ATT DSL and it is really slow in my room.  I am hoping that I don't have to purchase a booster and I might be able to use my Airport Extreme or Express to boost it.  I don't think they want my Extreme as their router, though.  They are PC.
    I am also hoping that I can set up a wireless printing situation in my room using the Express or Extreme.
    I am running 10.4.11 on my old MacBook Pro laptop, 10.5.something on my old desktop (MacMini).
    Thanks for any help ahead of time,

    Unfortunately, this won't work especially if you want the connection between the routers to be wireless. The two are just not compatible for configuring an extended network. However, it could work if you can have them interconnected by wire. In that case, you could configure them into a roaming network.
    I don't think they want my Extreme as their router, though.  They are PC.
    This shouldn't be an issue as the AirPorts support wireless clients regardless of which operating system they are running.

  • Can i download apps on my first generation ipod touch?

    can i download apps on my first generation ipod touch?

    Many developers when they updated their apps to support iOS 5 and 6 dropped compatibility for iOS 4.2.1 and earlier.
    Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.

  • I have the 1st generation ipod touch i installed an update which now it is 3.1.3 version i was able to put my apps on it but when i want to use the apps it will not let me use them. what do i need to do?

    I have the 1st generation ipod touch i installed an update which now it is 3.1.3 version i was able to put my apps on it but when i want to use the apps it will not let me use them. What do i need to do?

    Does it happen with the apps that came with the iPod?
    Does it happen with all apps you have downloaded/installed?
    Have you ried deleting the apps and redownload/install the apps?  You will not be charged again if you are signed into the same iTunes account that originally purchased the apps.
    Next would be to restore from backup
    Last would be to restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

  • HT1296 I can't sync the songs from my computer to my ipod touch. I have gone through the iPod directions on this page and have not found them helpful. For example, I can't find the Autofill button. Can you help?

    I can't sync the songs from my computer to my ipod touch. I have gone through the directions on the iPond help page and have not found them helpful. For example, I can't find the autofill button. Can you help?

    I have already tried following those steps. I went back and tried to follow them again but they did not work. Some of my songs have synced, some have not. And I am still not seeing the Autofill icon on the bottom of the menu or anywhere else. I fear something has been corrupted here and I need to start afresh.
