Charging new i-Touch with older AC adapter

I recently purchased a new Touch and wondered if I could use the AC-usb adapter that came with my 2nd gen (old school) iPod to allow my plugging the Touch into the wall instead of always into the computer. Since both iPods use usb cables, will there be any problems with using the same wall adapter and changing cables accordingly?

The Apple charger should work, however there are known 3rd party examples that do not. For example, I had a Sonnet AC-to-USB charger that worked on my iPod 5Gen Video, but failed on my IPT 1stGen, which Sonnet admitted to, and subsequently re-engineered their product.
I now use a newer Apple charger and the same cable for both iPods.

  • Cant charge new i touch with old wall charger

    I bought an i-touch recently because I was going on vacation. In the purchasing store they were ,out, of chargers (wall charger) Went to another store and learned they were on recall, not in prior to my departure. Was assured by employees at both stores Corte Madera and Emeryville that the i-pod charger would work. So now am in Japan and i-pod charger does not work (is not supported) and so for the remainder of my trip my I-touch is useless, which is of course v. frustrating! Any suggestions?

    Yes, they changed the charging circuits to only work with the new Apple charger, sorry.
    See if you can find a PC anywhere to charge it, maybe.
    Hope this helps.

  • When is the new docking station going to come out for the new iPod touch with the lightning connection?

    I have just got the new iPod Touch for christmas. I am now wondering when a docking station will come out for the new iPod Touch with the new lightning connection. I have not been able to find a docking station that fits the iPod Touch without having to buy the adapter(the adapter does not allow the iPod to be charged)
    When will a docking station come out for the new iPod Touch?

    You would have to ask the makers of the docking stations that question. Belkin has a dock now that uses Apple's Lightning cable:
    http://www.belkin.com/us/F8J057-Belkin/p/P-F8J057
    so all it basically does is provide a stand and pass through the headphone jack. There's at least one other dock here:
    http://www.thelightningdock.com/products/iphone-5-dock
    If you're referring to Apple's Universal Dock, there have been no indications that they will make any new dock, though of course none of us here know their plans for future products.

  • New iPod Touch with January Update Restore Question

    Hi,
    Few days ago i bought new iPod Touch with 1.1.3 software and January Update.
    When I restore it I'll lose my January Update programs ? And if that happened what can I do to get them back ?
    PS. Sorry for my poor english :P
    Cheers

    It was mentioned already in this thread. If you look at the package check the seriel number. If it ends with /B then that is the new model and it has the new applications that were provided in the Jaunary update already programmed into the iPod. If you restore you will not lose them.
    If it ends with /A then it is an older model that required the January Update in order to get the applications on your iPod. If you restore then you will lose them but you don't need to purchase them again as your iTunes will keep track of the purchase for you.

    do any one know how much it is to get the new ipod touch with the camera if you trade in your old ipod touch?

    Sounds like you need a new battery.  I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store to confirm.  Apple will replace the battery for $79.  A third-party place like the folloing may be less expensive.  Google for more places.

  • Help - lost motherboard, auto save saved older script, newer script actually with older date.

    Adobe story team:
    I had a best script to date, on an older hard drive and the motherboard failed on my HP tower.  The sony laptop has a more recent dated script, but not the one I want.  How do I replace an "older" date script, one that I want for a newer script.  I don't want the newer script, I want the older one that is on a "pulled" hard drive again, from a tower that failed.
    Do I save the older file on an offline, using a new ID, new password, forever changed or what can I do?
    I need a fairly quick response, timing is critical.  HP tower is the problem.
    drgm
    thanks

    You have it half right.  the issue is the HP tower I had failed.  The mother board failed, I pulled the hard drive which is windows 7, I have a sony laptop which is in 32 bit vista, I am not sure if the different versions will be an issue.  can i take a file off the pulled hard drive and put it somewhere in a directory even with the different windows vista vs windows 7 if so which file should i copy on the pulled hard drive and where do i put it on the laptop, directory plus I will go back on online save it in the clouds and reformat the laptop and go to windows 7 then go back to adobe story  and go from there. thank you for your quick attention in this matter.
    Respectfully,

    Hi
    I am not sure if I understand your problem correctly, but as far as I can make out you had been working on a script and then it got autosaved and now you wish to go back to the "older" script.
    In order to do so you may visit your document's history through the View->History option. There you will see older versions of your document (if you had not turned off autoversioning). You may then open an older version of the document from the panel by double clicking on it. Once on an older version you will get to see the "Make Latest" option. Clicking on that will make the "older" state of your document your "current" state and then you may proceed to edit the document as usual.
    I hope this is helpful to your situation. In case you face any issues in following the mentioned steps do let us know.
    Thanks

  • Charing the iPod touch with older charger?

    I have been an iPod owner since the first generation 5 gig model. It's still going strong (it's my son's now). In the course of time I have acquired a few chargers -- two for home and one for the car. Both are the Firewire variety. Can I use these (with the appropriate cord or adapter) to charge my touch? Is the output of these chargers still safe to use? I don't have a newer charger to double-check to see if they're still the same. Thanks.

    I have the second generation of iPod. I use the firewire and the adapter to charge my Ipod Touch to the wallplug. It works fine. You can't use the firewire cable from your computer to your ipod in order to synch it with the iTunes. So I use my usb cable that comes with my ipod touch to synch my music.

  • Can't charge new iPod Touch from iPod hi-fi

    When I plugged my new Touch (late 2009, I think they call it) into the charging dock of my Apple hi-fi, I got a message that the battery could not charge from this device. It played songs just fine. I plugged in my first-generation Touch to confirm that the Apple Hi-Fi could charge it, and it could.
    I have other, older, charging docks (including a Bose Sound Dock) at various locations in my house, but haven't tried them yet. Is the new Touch unable to charge from such docks, or is it the Apple Hi-Fi specifically that is somehow incompatible with the the new Touch?

    Perhaps I can explain this a bit more.
    Originally, iPods charged using the "firewire" connections which are part of the Dock Connector. I believe the voltage used was 12 volts. Later iPods were charged using the USB 5 volt connections, which are also part of the Dock Connector, but I think those iPods could also be charged by either the USB or the firewire connections.
    Several manufacturers of chargers/charging stations/Docks for iPods did not add the USB 5 volt charge feature, probably because they were saving money and missed the incredibly obvious - that Apple would one day drop the firewire charge feature.
    That day has come; the latest iPods cannot be charged by the firewire connections, so if your Dock uses the firewire but not the USB, then it will not charge an iPod that only uses USB, such as the Touch. I have an eighteen month old Bose Sound Dock and it will not charge my iPod Touch. (I don't know if Bose have rectified this oversight yet.) I also have two Klipsch RoomGroove units. When the iPod Touch first came out, the Klipsch would not charge it. However, very quickly, Klipsch RoomGrooves disappeared from the shelves (here in the UK anyway) and when they reappeared, they did charge the Touch. I saw this happening and waited until the newer version of the Klipsch was available.
    Now you may think that Apple were in some way wrong to stop the firewire charging but, think about this. Originally, the iPod's electronics and battery both required 12 volts to work. As technology improved, both the batteries and the electronics could be made to work reliably with only 5 volts, which happens to be the voltage used by USB connections. So if Apple now have a device that can be charged by the USB on your computer, they don't need to include a charger in with the iPod. So the iPods that charged by either firewire or USB were a case of Apple ensuring that old style Docks would continue to work. But that was not going to last forever.
    There is no doubt in my mind that designers should have seen the firewire issue coming!

  • How do I track an old (stolen) ipod touch if I already synced a new ipod touch with the old information without knowing it would not allow me to track my old ipod but my new one instead?

    I lost my iPod touch (4th generation) over a week ago and did not think I installed the icloud on it. When I was setting up my new iPod touch (4th generation),
    I saw that it automatically shows an option for icloud. That made me realize that I probably did install icloud in my old ipod. The problem is that I synced my old ipod with my new ipod on the computer. I thought if I didn't I would loose all of my old infomation. So now evertyime I use the app to find my iPod, it finds my new one. It shows only one device located under it. Is there a way I could find the old iPod? Or could I restore my new iPod and find the old one that way? I'm afraid if I restore it I would loose all my information from my old ipod.

    That makes no difference in finding/tracking your lost/stolen device.
    The old device will only show up in icloud.com if you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.

  • How can I sync my new ipod touch with my itunes 9.2.1 itunes

    Ok I have got a mac mini running  os 10.4.11 at 1.25ghz 1 gb and have a new 4th gen ipod touch I can't sync it to my itunes 9.2.1 please tell me I can get this to work without paying any more out!!!

    Thanks Jim I thought I might have to upgrade software but to be honest I was looking at investing in a new Mac in the summer but wanted a cheap fix to get my thousands of tunes that i have bought from Itunes onto my new ipod touch Ironically I have a samsung Galaxy s2 I use for work which interfaces with my mac no problem... I find it very odd apple are treating there own customers in this way making me upgrade to interface with their own products!! Which after having macs for the last 20 years i am doubting my decision to carry on with my loyalty to a brand that is doing this!!
    Sorry not your problem.. thanks for the advise.

  • Setup new iPod Touch with previous backup

    I have bought a new iPod Touch and wish to restore it to a back up of another iPod Touch.  I have found out that this is possible, but I want to have that new iPod sync with an iTunes library on another computer.
    Is it possible for it to do so or will it say something like "You have already synced this iPod with another iTunes library and will have to restore it if you want to use it with this library."
    Help pls.

    See my response to our other post.

  • I backed up my new iPod touch with data from my old one. This seems to have erased all the new apps that came with the new iPod. What do I do now?

    I got a new iPod Touch today. I wanted to transfer all my apps and data over to the new iPod from my old one, so I restored it from my old one. Unfortunately, it seems to have erased the new apps that come with the latest iPod. What do I do to get the back?

    Maybe I'm confusing apps with function. I was looking at the features on Apple's site, and it showed Voice Control, Air Print, Air Play, that sort of thing.
