I bought a used ipod touch 2nd generation and it crashed my computer twice!

I have it factory resetting right now.  When I went to plug it into my laptop it shut off TWICE.  I had a hard time turning it back on both times.  Is the unit bad?  Am I doing something wrong??  I'm at a loss!  Could the charger be bad?  I need help ASAP please!!!

  • I have an iPod Touch (2nd Generation) and it's running iOs 4.2.1.

    Is there any way I could update it to iOs 4.3 or later? With 4.2.1 theres no good games nor apps to use! If I go to an Apple store could I update it? At my school we use iPod touch (2nd Generation) and it's updated to iOs 4.3.

    "Is there any way I could update it to iOs 4.3 or later? "
    No.  Sorry.
    "f I go to an Apple store could I update it? "
    Still no.
    "At my school we use iPod touch (2nd Generation) and it's updated to iOs 4.3."
    No it is not.  This is not possible,  Ipod touch second gen cannot run anything higher than ios 4.2.1

    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
    Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
    Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
    Power up
    Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

  • I tried to restore my iPod Touch 2nd generation and now it won't sync to itunes.  on the screen it shows the usb end of the cord and the iTunes logo over it.  Is it broken?

    I tried to restore my ipod touch 2nd generation  and now it won't sync to itunes.    On the screen is the USB end of the cord and the iTunes logo over it.
    I have turned it off and on,  held the off button down and  the select button down but it still comes up with that picture on the screen.    Have I broken it?
    Please help.

    It means the device is in recovery mode.  You'll need to reconnect it to iTunes and restore it again.
    You may need to connect it in recovery mode manually using the instructions in this Apple support document.

    I have an iPod touch 2nd generation and my touch screen doesn't work, at all. What should I do?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours. I say not worth it for a 2G
    Apple - iPod Repair price                       
    A third-party place like the following maybe less. Google for more. Again, likely not worth it for a 2G

  • 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

  • Ipod touch 2nd generation won't connect to computer

    Just bought a used Ipod touch and I am unable to get it to be recongized by itunes or my computer (MacBook pro using Lion).
    Computer - Itunes all updated.  I tried to restore unit (sleep and hold buttons) but I can't get past he "connect to Itunes" screen.
    Same result on two other windows computers.
    USB cord does work for charging the unit (in wall outlet, not from computer).  Is there a different cord for older units? (I'm using the one with my Iphone 4)

    Same cable.
