    How can i still update my ipod touch 2nd generation, does the apple website still provide these older iOS updates?

    You can upgrade your iPod on itunes to the most recent software it willl support. Anything past that won't work on your device.

  • How can I strenghten a weak Airport Extreme (2nd Generation) signal?

    I have been having a weak WiFi signal in my Airport Extreme. Even when I am in a room that is less than 30 ft away.
    Here are the details:
    AirPort Extreme 802.11n (2nd generation)
         Version: 7.6.1
         Wireless Mode: Participate in a WDS network
         Wireless Security: WPA/WPA2 Personal
         Channel: 6
         Connect Using: Ethernet
    My Airport Extreme is on the second floor of the house and is connected to a D-Link DIR 825 router that is on the first floor.
    Sometimes when I am on the second floor, I get a better signal from the D-Link router than from the Airpot Extreme.
    How can I strenghten the signal?
    Thanks in advance

    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click on the AirPort Extreme
    Information about the device will be displayed in the area to the right
    The 3rd Generation product was the first Apple simultaneous dual band router, introduced in March 2009. Minor changes were made in the chipsets between the 3rd Generation and 4th Generation versions with some antenna improvements added in the 4th Generation versions as well. The 4th Generation version was introduced in October 2009.

  • I have a ipod nano 1st and 2nd generation and am trying to put music on it but every time windows says one of the usb devices attached to this computer has malufunctioned and windows does not recognize it code 43 can someone help me please

    i have a ipod nano 1st and 2nd generation and am trying to put music on it but every time windows says one of the usb devices attached to this computer has malufunctioned and windows does not recognize it code 43 can someone help me please

    Try putting it into "Disk Mode" http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
    Then with it in this mode connect it to the PC and try to run the latest iPod updater to do a restore and update software if you have the option. the latest iPod updater is 2006-03-23 and can be downloaded here http://www.apple.com/ipod/download/

  • HT1515 How can I use Airport Express (1st generation) with OS X Mavricks?

    How can I use Airport Express (1st Generation) with OS X Mavericks?

    1st Generation AirPort Express will work fine with Mavericks.
    Are you sure that you have a 1st Gen Express?
    Check the model number on the side of the Express. 1st Gen is A1264.
    If you see A1084 or A1088, these are much older versions of the Express that were sold long before Apple began to use the Generation naming with "n" wireless devices in 2007.
    Mavericks will not support the A1084 or A1088. Use another Mac running Leopard, Snow Leopard, or a PC if you need to administer the older Express.

  • Do I have a 1st or 2nd Generation Nano?

    help - can anyone tell me how i know if my new nano 2gb black with a silver back is 1st or 2nd generation? I bought it direct from apple as reconditioned a couple of weeks ago

    You have a First Generation Nano.
    The Second Generation nano's color covers the entire unit, front and back (whatever that color may be).
    For the first generation nanos, there is a silver backing, while the main color is on the front of the iPod.
    Also, a second way of telling is that you can only get black Nanos in 8 GB size, now. Whereas, the first generation black nanos used to (you can get them refurbished now, of course) come in 1 GB, 2 GB, or 4 GB.
    That's not the case now with the current Nanos, so there's your second reason why you have a First Generation.

  • 1st vs 2nd generation Nano

    For people who've held both 1st and 2nd generations Nano's, how does the style compare? The round edges vs the more square edges? Pictures just don't do them justice, so would like to hear your opinions from 1st hand experience.
    Thanks

    Personally, I LOVE the changes made in the 2nd Gen Nano. Not crazy about the candy colors - I wish that they had gone with colors that were a little more sophisticated and subtle - And I wish that the 8GB had come in at least Silver as well as black.
    Still, I got the black 8GB Nano to replace my 1st Gen 4GB Nano - And I couldn't be much happier. The feel of that midnight aluminum is much more pleasing than the chrome and plastic of the 1st Gen...the rounded edges make it feel much better in the hand.
    Even though it is thinner and lighter than the 1st Gen, it still feels more solid and less fragile. With my first Nano, I felt like I HAD to use a case in order to protect it. I ended up using a CoreCase in a silver aluminum (http://www.corecases.com/home.php). It was the least bulky hard case I could find that fit in with the Apple style. But it still added bulk to the Nano.
    With my new Nano, I do not feel the need to cover it up as much, thus keeping the "WOW" factor of something so small being able to deliver that much power. Plus, the aluminum is less prone to scratches and fingerprints - a very nice feature!
    I also prefer the click wheel with the middle Select button that is slightly concave instead of rounded - It just feels better and more natural.
    I know others have viewed this change as a step backwards - back to the days of the iPod Mini. But I've always felt that the Mini was one of the best iPod designs out there - and this new Nano is even better! NOW, if only they could come up with BETTER colors, these Nanos would be nigh on perfect!

    Hi,

    You can only see:
    Front:
    1 - Screen area
    2 - Microphone array
    3 - Webcam camera
    4 - Stand
    5 - Speakers
    Back:
    1 - Optical disk drive (actually right)
    2 - Stand
    3 - Kensington lock slot
    4 - Power button
    5 - Memory card reader and other I/O on left side
    6 - Motherboard back I/Os (specific I/Os are model dependent)
    7 - Activity indicator
    8 - Power connector

    The only hope is "6 - Motherboard back I/Os (specific I/Os are model dependent)" area:
    Please check area 6 above. As mentioned in my previous reply: Most likely your machine has no video out port.

  • My iPods touch 1st and 2nd generation don´t show up anymore in iTunes after upgrade to iTunes 10.5 and MacOsX 10.6.8 Snow. What can I do??

    I was using iPods touch 1st and 2nd generation together with iPod Shuffle 1st generation with inferior versions of iTunes and MacOS X without any problem. After I upgraded to iTunes 10.5 and Mac OS X 10.6.8, the iPod Shuffle still appears in iTunes normally, but the iPods don´t appear. Its not a problem of the USB because because it happens with two different USB cables which worked just fine before. Any idea how I could get the iPods working again?? Thanks a lot!!!

    I have an iPod Touch 2nd Gen, MacOS X 10.6.8 and iTunes 10.5, and my iPod still works when I plug it in.
    So it's not the software, because mine still works. Do your iPods have a lock on them? If so, try unlocking them and then plugging them in, usually when your iPod has a passcode lock it won't show up in iTunes until you unlock it.
