Charging ipod touch 2nd generation

Hi can i use a mains charger to charge my 2nd generation ipod touch?

What charger did you use? The early iPods (not iPod tpuch) used FireWire (12 volts) for charging vice the current USB (5 volts).

Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

- 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.

Ipod touch 2nd generation completely black and won't charge

I have an ipod touch 2nd generation. I had it connected to an aux cord, playing music, and on the charger and then it turned off. The ipod felt hot right by the charger port. The screen is completely black. I tried holding down the sleep and home buttons, charging the ipod for a very long time on my laptop in all the usb ports and in the outlet in the wall. The ipod just stays black. It doesn't say if it's charging and when I plug it into my laptop, it doesn't show up on itunes or my computer. Please help!!!

My daughters Ipod touch 2nd generation has been freezing today. We have updated, restored etc and will not play any music as in no sound coming from it. It is almost fully charged and played ok 2 days ago. Any suggestions?

My Ipod touch 2nd generation has been freezing today. We have updated, restored etc and now it will not play any music - as in no sound coming from it. It looks as if it is playing, but no sound comes out. It played ok 2 days ago. Any suggestions?

So, here is an update to my original question, in case anyone else has this issue. I spoke with a senior adviser at apple, who had me use the "devmgmt.msc" command in the search line of Windows 7; after expanding the USB controllers menu, she had me uninstall/delete the "apple mobile device driver" and then open "control panel" and "uninstall programs." Once the menu of programs was open, she had me highlight the program "apple mobile device controller", then repair it, and restart the computer. This fixed the issue and the iPod synced.
However, just one day ago, when I plugged in both the iPod, then the iPad (not at the same time), I get the message that "this library has already been synced to another iPod/iPad or other IOS device." It then asked if I wanted to set up as a new device or from restore of previous. That is wher I am right now; I am trying to get the same apple adviser again to discuss the case number. More to follow.

My Ipod touch 2nd generation won't turn on.

My Ipod touch 2nd generation won't turn on, except when I plug it in. When it's plugged in, it works fine, but when I unplug it, the screen turns black. The secont i plug it in again, it shows the apple logo as if i shut it down. When unplugged, it is unresponsive, i've tried everything with the home button and power button, doesn't move, it's just black. I've reset the Ipod, I know it is not a software issue. Sometimes it works, but as soon as i push the sleep button it doesn't turn back on till plugged back in. The battery's bad, but it can still last up to 30 minutes. I don't think it's worth buying a new battery, may as well buy an Ipod 5. (pretty cool)

Wi-Fi - iPod Touch (2nd Generation)

How many hours of wi-fi you can use on a iPod Touch (2nd Generation)?

Usually, you can get more than 3-5 hours out of your battery, if its fully charged, when using wifi, before you should start thinking about letting it rest. Then again, it depends on whether or not you are browsing and pulling up pages with ALOT of heavy web content. Videos can drain the battery, too, so watch out for them. I myself have the same iPod as you, and mine is very reliable as far as the battery goes! Hope this helps.

Hi Imminnie,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. If iTunes doesn't recognize your iPod touch, this article may help:

If issues persist, a thorough removal and reinstall of iTunes would be the next thing to try:

I have an ipod touch 2nd generation.I want to purchase games from the app store like Temple Run but it says I can't.Is there a way to update this ipod?

I have an Ipod Touch 2nd generation. I bought a Itunes card and when I went to add game apps(like Temple Run) to my Ipod it said I couldn't.Is there a way to upgrade this ipod without having to buy a new one to be able to play the games?

You can update it to 4.2.1
Open itunes, connect ipod. If there is an update available, then it will prompt you to update.

The speakers on my iPod Touch 2nd generation stopped working.

The speakers on my iPod Touch 2nd generation stopped working. The volume doesn't even register - can't turn it up or down. On occasion the headphones will work when plugged in. Turned it off and on, tried reset, nothing works. I bought it second hand so no AppleCare. What can I do?

Try restoring the iPod via iTunes on your computer. First from backup and if problem persists restore to factory defaults/new iPod.

My current laptop is about 3 years old. Got a virus and had to wipe it clean. Now my IPod touch 2nd generation won't recognize this computer as the one it was originally assigned to. what do I need to do to safeguard my tunes on the Ipod touch.

My current laptop is about three years old and got a virus. Had to wipe it clean. Now my Ipod Touch-2nd generation is not recognizing it as the primary original computer and says it is registered on another computer. What can I do to safeguard my library of songs on the Ipodtouch. Any suggestions?

Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your iPod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
Do this:
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your ipod without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your device for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPod for the first time.
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

My Ipod Touch 2nd Generation Froze And Is Trying To Install ALL Of My Apps!

A few hours ago my ipod touch 2nd generation froze, and then it took about 15 minutes to unfreeze. Now it's working very slow. I soon realized that it's trying to istall ALL of my apps I've downloaded since I got my ipod. I had to attempt to shut off the wifi so it would stop. right now over 25 apps are on Pause. I don't want to restore my ipod because I last did a backup about a few months ago. My computer is out of memory, and it's a very slow computer. I recently send an email to apple because of an issue I had with two missing itunes store purchases that it deleted off of my ipod when I connected it with itunes. They never emailed me back and it's been over 24 hours. Could apple be attempting to send me back ALL of the things I've purchased and downloaded with my account? If they are, IT'S NOT FUNNY

- First try restoring from backup
- If problem persists, restore to factory defaults/new iPod
If still a problem you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
