I brought my first generation Ipod to an apple store today and was informed that the batteries are no longer available??

I brought my 1st Gen Ipod to an Apple Store today and was informed that batteries for this unit are no longer available. I find this totally unacceptable.
Is there anyway that I can have the battery for this unit replaced?
Please advise
A.Lauro

There are still several third party service centers out there who offer replacement services for the battery.  Google for "iPod battery replacement."
Better yet, see if your 1G iPod Nano qualifes under Apple's 1G Nano recall regarding a batch of nanos shipped with bad batteries.  See this article for more details.

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone
    - You can also have to iPod play a sound via iCloud.

    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 or the other 4Gs. They do not fix yours.

  • My 2nd generation iPod nano screen is showing lines and I cannot see the whole menu. How can I fix this problem?

    I believe that my wife disconnected the iPod nano (2nd Gen.) improperly and now the screen has a whole bunch of lines. I can see the screens moving when I move to the next screen. But it's just lines. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    well unfortunatley your warranty is over so the device is not covered,  BUT sounds like you have interupting signals being sent from a stuck home button constantly being pressed and maybe even a digitizer problem (the touch screen).  You can try to restore your ipod to your computer to see if it might be some kind of software related issue.  Just restore to the last sync you have on iTunes.  But FIRST...I would try to Reset your ipod.
    Go to Settings>General>Reset> Reset all settings.

  • I HAVE AN FIRST GENERATION IPOD, WHAT APPS CAN I DOWNLOAD TO IT

    I have a first generation ipod touch that i am trying to download apps to for my daughter, what apps are compatable with this version.  It will not let me upgrade the software

    Not many. At this point, many applications focus on the current version of software, which is iOS 6.0.1. You might have to find out for yourself to see which ones are compatible, but you may be out of luck for many. Also, you have a first generation iPod touch. It's been 5 years since that was released, and many apps have updated at least hundreds of times. There is luck, however; larger games can possibly still support your version. Also, if you're in the App Store on the iPod touch, go to the bottom of the app page and see what version it supports. I hope this helped.

  • Were the first generation ipod touches made using lead free solder?

    Does anyone know if the first generation ipos touches were made using lead free solder? For that matter, did the first generation ipod touches contain any lead at all?
    Also, did the first generation ipods use arsenic free glass, or was that only the second generation on? One last question, were the first generation ipods mercury and cadmium free?

    The tech specs for the 1G iPod do not contain any staement oh material us. like later iPods.

    The tech specs for the latest iDevice (iPhone 4S) does not mention being lead free:

  • How do i dowload apps to my first generation ipod?

    How do i download apps to first generation ipod ?

    You need at least iOS 2.x. The 1G can only go as high as iOS 3.1.3 that you get here:
    Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)
    To more easily find compatible apps since many apps are not compatible with 3.1.3 see:
    iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
    Vintapps 3.1.3 - paid app.
    Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.

  • I have two iPods, one from the fourth generation and another one that must be from the first generation iPod nano. Can I trade them both in?

    I have two iPods, one IPod touch from the fourth generation and another one that must be from the first generation iPod nano. Can I trade them both in?
    The Fourth generation- 16GB
    First generation-4GB

    Apple does not have a "trade in" program for iPods, other than the recycling program that gives you a 10% discount on a new iPod (at an Apple Retail Store).
    http://www.apple.com/recycling/ipod-cell-phone/
    There are some third-party (non-Apple) companies that provide compensation for old iPods.  You can also sell them yourself on eBay.

  • I have a first generation ipod touch. I use a wireless router to get on the internet. My connection has frozen and I can not get out of a google search screen. Any help is appreciated. Ray.

    I have a first generation ipod touch. I use a wireless router to get my internet connection. It is frozen on opening up a website and will not release. Even when I power down and restart it goes back to the same failed connection. Any ideas greatly appreciated. Ray.

    - Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Go to Settings>Safari and delete cookies, cach and history.
    - Restore the iPod

    If you have a 1G iPod you can update to as far as 3.1.3.  Yu get hat paid update here:
    Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)
    You can identofy your iPod here:

    What iOS is curently on your iPod (Setting>Genral>About>Version) you need as lest 2.0 for apps but most apps need 3.0 or later.

  • HT4623 PLEASE HELP! I have the first generation ipod touch and cannot update the software.

    I have the first generation ipod touch with the ios 3.01. I cannot find a way to update the software because I can no longer download apps or really do anything with it. Please help.

    The 1G iPod can only go as high as 3.1.3

  • I cant download apps on my first generation ipod

    i cant download apps on my first generation ipod touch. it keeps saying update required iOS 4.0

    Your 1G iPod Touch cannot be upgraded past iOS 3.1.3.   Many apps that are available in the App Store not require a higher version of iOS (such as iOS 4) in order to be compatible with your device. So if an app requires a higher version of iOS than what is supported by your iPod Touch, you will not be able to sync or download that app to your device.  Sorry.

  • New Calendar and first generation iPod Touch

    Since the "old" calendar will be de-activated next month, I will no longer be able to sync my first generation iPod Touch to the new calendar. I use the old calendar now on my intel iMacs, MacBook Pro, iPad 2 and my old iPod Touch. Everything works well, but there is no software download available to upgrade the older iPod Touch to sync with my newer stuff after May 5. Basically my iPod Touch becomes a music player; I need the calendar function and do not feel the justification of buying a new iPod Touch when I already have one that works well and cost a lot of money when I bought it three years ago. Why can't Apple just leave things as they are? We have the choice of which calendar we want to use, and they are taking that option away with utter disregard for those of us who have already spent our $$$$ for an iPod Touch and still need to be able to use it. I urge Apple to either offer a software upgrade or to just leave the old calendar turned on. Have a little respect for your customers.
