You have a 1st generation iPod Touch.
It can be updated to 3.1.3 by purchase. See here Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)

When I click the Sections button then click on the 1st page I get a page that is titled "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet"! Where did it come from and how do I get rid of it. I have tried deleting and "dont save" but it comes back.

I have tried deleting and "dont save" but it comes back. It is a full page in some unknown language. The only thing I can decifer is 'cupy uf cak'. Rdal

Roger,
The icon is +Sections, not just Sections, as in "Add a Section". When you click that icon you get a section break and and a new section template, complete with preformatted text called placeholder text. The reason "Lorem ipsum" is there is so you can see what the format looks like. The reason that it is Latin gibberish is so you won't get hung up on, or distracted by, what it says. It's just a display of format. Select the "Lorem ipsum" text and start typing your content.

Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

Not sure if this will work, but you could try the app My Contacts Backup. This will back up your contacts as an email attachement. Send the email to yourself. Then turn off contacts syncing (to erase the contacts from your phone), open the email and tap the attachment to re-import the contacts to your phone. You will still have to go through them and remove the duplicates but at least they should not be duplicated again. (There is an app called
Remove Duplicate Contacts and Events that claims to be able to find and remove duplicates but you'll have to read the reviews in the app store to decide if you want to try it.)

How do I get my iMessage to work?

I cant get my iMessage to work on my iPod 5 it ether says its turned off or bad internet connection.

Try a restart and if that doesn't work try a restore. If all else fails, maybe you do have a bad internet connection. Are there any connection problems in your home? Intermittent disconnections? Connection quality issues?

How do I get my Imessages to work with another iphone again after it has stopped working?

My iphone use to always send imessages with my boyfriend's iphone now it will only send SMS texts, how do I get it back to sending Imessages with iphone?

You should of course make sure that they're both running the latest version of iOS (at least iOS5 is required) - connect to your computer and update from iTunes, if not.

How do I get second monitoir to work, I have correct leads etc and have tried to find required actions in Pref Display, I can do this very easily on my pc but having real drama with my Imac

How do I get a second monitor to work. I have all the correct leads etc. But I can not find the additional monitor in the Pref Display section.
Need to do this as built in screen is corrupting, with colour lines, I have been told that this is a screen issue not the graphics cards etc and not unusual on IMac

Jeff,
thanks. I didn't know that and it does work. But I still have the problem that it rarely works if I need to have the cursor in place in order to make a correction or addition to a cell, or if I want to use dictation, which is my preferred method.
But you have definitely provided me with a work around that I can use most of the time for entering text.
I am going to give it some more time to see what I can learn before switching back to Excel. It acts like there's a poor connection between the mouse and/or trackpad--I'm switching back and forth looking for better traction--and the program, although both the mouse and trackpad work well elsewhere.
Again, thanks to everyone for your help.
Also, I just noticed the " This helped me." I appreciate all the help, and I'm now embarassed that I didn't understand that I should probably be clicking. Or does it work that way?

I am trying to log into my apple account and it is telling me my account is disabled. How can i get it enabled again? I have tried resetting my password and that did not work.

I have tried to log into my apple account so I can download my songs onto my iPhone. It keeps telling me my apple id is disabled. I've tried resetting my password but that did not work. How can I fix this?

After resetting your password you might then need to log out of your account on your device by phone on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores if it's on iOS 6) and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it
If that doesn't fix it then you might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

Help please itunes not working, i have tried everything.

I have windows vista and everytime i try to open itunes it says itunes is not working and then it shuts down. I deleted it and reinstalled it many times, i have tried repairing it, it doesnt work.
Here is what i think caused it, i was trying to convert music files to work with windows media player. so i tried installing different codec programs (I deleted the old before i tried a new codec program. I have since deleted them all and figured out a way to convert them but now itunes doesnt work.
I dont know what to do i would do system restore but i tried it earlier and all the codec programs were stuck in the menu and i couldnt get rid of them so i restored it back.
Is there something in the registry screwing it up? how do i fix it?

so i tried installing different codec programs (I deleted the old before i tried a new codec program.
which codec packs did you try installing? can you recall which versions you installed?

My home share is not working i have tried everything it works on one computer but not the other help!

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes i have tried messing with my avast and I cant get anything to work please help me! it works on another computer in the house but everytime i try to click on his library it says it loading his library and then stops and goes to my music. plz help!

When normally powering the phone, there would not be a loading bar, you would just see the Apple logo. You can try a reset of the phone, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot.
You can take the phone to Apple, by making an appointment at the Genius Bar to have the hardware checked. Apple handles warranty and post-warranty issues, not Verizon. Have Apple look at the hardware to see if there are any problems.
