Any Suggestions ?
Try:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
If not successful, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

when i plug in my ipod touch (8gb, 3rd generation) it doesn't turn on and the apple logo flashes on and off. before this it wouldn't turn on unless it was plugged in.
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My ipod touch 8gb 3rd generation keeps dropping wifi. Doesn't matter where I am - happend ALL the time. Almost useless now except for all of my songs! We don't have any other problems with other computers in our house. I have downloaded all of my songs from itunes directly to my ipod (I know, I wish I hadn't) so I hate to reset or I will lose them all. I have never downloaded any updates (I know, I know!) so could this be my problem? How do I find downloads and what do I need? Please help if you can!

If I reset my ipod will the wifi dropping stop? I don't usually connect the ipod to my computer. I charge it from the wall. Should I be connecting to the computer instead? Takes so much longer. thanks for your help!
The reset may help with the WiFi issue, but you'll have to do the reset to be sure. It does seem to cure a wide variety of issues. At some point you should be connecting the iPod to your computer/iTunes account, otherwise you risk losing all of your music and other content if you have a problem with your iPod.

ITunes and iPod touch 8gb 3rd generation
I had downloaded some songs to my iPod from iTunes and then something happened when I was syncing the iPod and the computer and now some of the songs are gone off of the music list in my music app on my iPod. I tried to redownload them and it said I had already bought those songs and asked if I wanted to continue. I said no because I have paid for them already and hated to pay for them again if I did. Is there a way to get them back? <edited by host>

Need to sync calendars between two iPod touchs, 8GB 3rd Generation
I use Microsoft Works on my PC and iTunes does not recognize the Works calendar. Therefore I use the iPod's Apps calendar. I recently purchased an identical iPod for my wife and can't find a way to sync the calendars between the two iPods.
I think you can sync both of them to the same Google Calendar account when you have WiFi access. See this: http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138740&cbid=riutrlst6g 98&src=cb&lev=answer

My iPod Touch 8GB 3rd Gen is acting slow.
I just got my iPod Touch 8gb 3rd gen and it acts slow whenever I try to use youtube, mail, safari and whatever else that needs wi-if. I restored it twice, but no luck. What should I do?
Humor me: define slow. Slow as in a few seconds, or slow as in 30 seconds, or slow as in a minute or longer?

HT4623 my ipod touch is 3rd generation.
My ipod touch is 3rd generation. I have done all the erase and restore things in the article and it still is using ios 4.2.1. It does not have a button that says software update that i can find and the computer did not update it. What can i do?
This may indicate you have a 2nd generation. Please check the model number on the back and post back. If it is A1288, it is a 2nd gen.

How do you disable iPod touch 8gb 4th generation 6.1.3 for 21,000,000 minutes
To undisable the iPod
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
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.

I recently bought an ipod touch 4 from ebay, and I tried to register it under my name but appearently its still registered under someone elses; probably the person I bought it from. What can be done so that I can register my ipod touch 4 to my apple id account?

If you’re trying to register an Apple product, chances are it’s already registered. Most Apple products can be registered when you turn them on for the first time and begin the setup process.
