I have 2 ipod touch 3rd gen. Cannot connect to my wifi. One will connect with neighbor's unsecure network..neither connect with my secured network
I have 2 ipod touch 3rd generation. Cannot connect to my wifi. One will connect on and off to my neighbor's unsecure wifi but neither will connect to my secured wifi. All my wireless computers connect plus my Ipad connects. They did connect at one time but haven't used them for anything but audio books which connect through Itunes on my computer. It shows my secured network name. When I originally connected them it was another rather with other security but since then I have bought new equipment. My Ipad and my printers just automatically connect. I have put in the Ip information plus but still no luck.

I have an iPod Touch 3rd Gen. There is a problem with the volume dropping down and then right back up, intermittenly on various songs. If you rewind past that spot, it will not do it again. It is not always the same songs. What can I do to correct this issue? I have tried a hard reboot on the iPod and the problem is still there.

Have Ipod Touch 2nd Gen. 64 gig. I noticed that my music will not play alphabetically anymore. Don't know exactly when this occured. I checked all my settings so doesn't seem to be that.Apple no longer is upgrading this unit..I use windows XP but don't believe this is an issue since i have read posts saying this is not the problem..right now am converting my higher bit rate music to see if that changes anything. I also turned off my unit and the next thing am going to do is a restore if this doesn't work. Anyone find a fix for this yet? I also see that this is not a unique problem to Gen 2 units and is occuring on newer units as well..thank you all for any advise...

i have an ipod touch 3rd gen.I used the function of erasing all contents and settings and now i am stuck with this screen showing the apple logo and the loading sign for the past 17 hours.CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hold down the on/off button and the home button for 20 to 30 sec, when the iPod starts and the Apple logo is on the screen release the on/off button but continue to hold the home button until you see the plug into iTunes screen. Connect the iPod to iTunes and you should be good to go.

Maybe:

Or
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:

paying special attention to item #5

I have an iPod Touch 3rd gen and while it is recognized by my laptop with Win 8.1, it won't sync with iTunes. It worked fine while my laptop had Win 8 but after the update, it quit syncing. Strange though, I downloaded an app directly to my iPod and when I connected it to my laptop again (for recharging if nothing else), iTunes updated itself by including the new app. I also tried syncing wirelessly. Also unsuccessful. I'm about ready to change to an alternate to iTunes if I can't get this situation fixed. Anyone else have this problem and/or a solution?

I have an ipod touch 3rd gen I am giving to my daughter, I reset it to sync it with her itunes account and now it is stuck on OS 4.2 and won't update beyond that. None of the apps that used to be on it (I tried to add them) will load due to the old version of OS. Can I force an update? Please help.
Are you sure it's a 3rd generation Touch? If it has Model No. A1288 etched into the back casing, it's a 2nd generation, not 3rd. The 2nd generation Touch cannot be updated beyond iOS 4.2.1.
(The 3rd gen Touch has Model No. A1318 etched into the back casing.) -
whenever i connect my ipod touch 3rd gen to itunes itunes responds really slowly and when i try and sync it it says sync in progress on my ipod screen but then is stuck with "verifying "matts ipod" at the top of itunes and stays like that for ages.. help
You buy one and only one download.
As it should have been transferred to your computer when you synced, you can contact itunes support and ask for an exception.

Ok so i have this iPod touch (3rd gen) and i'm trying to update it through iTunes and when i click check for update it keeps saying this version of iPod software (2.2.1) is your current version. what do i do? how do i update it?
You have a 1st generation iPod Touch. It can not be upgraded beyond iOS 3.1.3, it is available at the link below.

I have had an iPod Touch 3rd Gen for two years pretty much and the apps have worked fine. Suddenly when I go on an app it appears to launch then just exits. I tried turning the iPod off and on again, but that made all my apps behave like that. Settings and those things work fine still. Should this suddenly happen? I dont want to lose all 204 apps.
- First try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next try downloading/installing a new app
- Restore from backup
- Last, resore to factory defaults/new iPod. this is last result since you will lose app data. -
itunes says that the version of software on my ipod touch 3rd gen is up to date, but IOS 5 is avaliable. I have checked for software updates for days but it keeps saying that 4.2.1 is the current version. Why cant i get IOS 5?

because you do not have a 3rd generation device. The OS Version says so , otherwise you would be at 4.3.5 minimum and also Itunes is also always correct in determining if you have the latest OS ( if not it fetches the newest from Apple's Servers ) . And because a 2nd generation iPod stops at 4.2.1 you can't get the newest OS, because your device is old. Buy a new iPod , they have iOS5 preinstalled. -
Hello! I bought an iPod touch 3rd gen at a pawn shop and when i tried to set it up, it would not connect to my iTunes OR Wifi so that I could finish set up. Is there anything I can do to fix this before i take it back and get my money back?
Take it back for a refund.

Hi. My ipod touch (3rd gen) will not turn off or resond to anything and will not connect to a computer. the screen will not go into sleep mode and i dont know what to do. help?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have a docking station to charge and play audio from my ipod touch 3rd gen. Is there an adapter available for the ipod touch 5th gen so that I can keep using the old dock?
