How do i find out what generation my ipod classic is

I have an older classic and am not up to date on lots of the differences.  I'd like to know for sure what gen it is, how do i find out?  And is there really any differences between them (the generations)?  I think mine is around 4th or  5th gen but not sure.

This should help...

    How can you find out what generation your iPod touch is?

    Hi,
    Here is help for the operating system:
    If you are locked to iOS 3 then you have an iPod Touch 1st Gen.
    If you are locked to iOS 4 then you have an iPod Touch 2nd Gen.
    If you are locked to iOS 5 then you have an iPod Touch 3rd Gen.
    If you are locked to iOS 6 then you have an iPod Touch 4th Gen.
    If you can get iOS 7 and have an iPhone 5 sized screen [bigger] you have the current iPod Touch 5th Gen.
    I assume since it says you have iOS 5.1.1 you have an iPod Touch 3rd Gen.
    Also, you may want to sync it so iTunes can tell you or you can look at the model number on the back.
    Hope this helped.

  • TS2771 how do I find out what generation of Apple Itouch I have

    I don't know if I have a 2nd or 3rd generation Itouch.  How do I find that out?  I know where to go to find what operating system I have.

    See:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353#iPod_touch_late2009
    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

  • How do I find out what Generation Nano I have?

    I'm buying an fm transmitter nad it asks what Generation I have.

    Is the back a silver mirror-like plate or is it a color? If it is a silver plating, it is a 1st gen. If it is 1 color all the way around, it is a 2nd gen.

  • How Do I Find Out What Generation Extreme I Have and Then What?

    I just "inherited" an Airport Extreme and I want to try it in my new place to see if it provides better performance than the cheezy G class WIFI built in to the router from my ISP.
    I have the hardware but no documentation or software.  It was years ago that I set this thing up the first time.
    On the back I see the Model number is A1143
    At the risk of looking really stupid what do I do now?
    I can can plug in the power and the ethernet from the modem.  Now ...
    Do I need to update firmware?
    What Drivers / software do I need?
    Where will I find the "how to" steps I need to make the Extreme my WIFI router?
    Bla Bla Bla
    Any and all advice would be much appreciated.
    Thanks

    On the back I see the Model number is A1143
    You have a 2nd Generation AirPort Extreme
    At the risk of looking really stupid what do I do now?
    You might want to download the setup manual. http://support.apple.com/manuals/#airport
    What Drivers / software do I need?
    You need AirPort Utility 5.5.3 to configure the AirPort Extreme.  http://support.apple.com/downloads/#airport
    Do I need to update firmware?
    AirPort Utility will prompt you if a firmware update is available
    Where will I find the "how to" steps I need to make the Extreme my WIFI router?
    Click "Continue" when you open AirPort Utility to start the step by step guided setup.

    By the serial number can you find out what generation your iPod touch is??

    Hi stedman, getting back the generation number when inputting the serial number is a new offering on the warranty checking page, isn't it?
    Very useful though. That should put a stop to the "8GB 3rd gen" merchants!

  • How do I find out what my PW is on my Mac or at least how to reset it?

    I reset my password for internet site but i must have a different pw on my Mac, it will not let me do updates without it*  The PW hint in the sign in screen is not working.  How do I find out what my PW is on my Mac or at least how to reset it?
    thanks,

    Sounds like you want your administrative password on the Mac so can install? For starters, you'll want to ask in a Mac forum. I know you used to be able to reset it using the install disk but haven't tried that for years.
