My first gen.ipod shut off by itself and won't get past the first apple screen.When I turn it on the apple screen comes up then it shuts back off.

You should do a DFU.
Steps to DFU
Turn your device off. Press and hold the Power button until the Power slider appears. Slide it to the right to turn the device off. Wait for your device to completely power down before continuing.
Plug into your Computer.
Press the Power button. Hold the Power button for 3 seconds.
Press the Home button. After the first 3 seconds, press and hold the Home button while continuing to hold the Power button. Do this for 10 seconds.
Release the Power button. After exactly 10 seconds of holding both buttons, release the Power button but continue holding the Home button. After a few seconds, a message will appear in iTunes letting you know that the device has been detected. The device’s screen will remain blank if done successfully.
Then you should restore it and put all your info back.
*Make sure you back it up before you do this*

I have a first gen ipod which is being recalled, and after going thru the process of registering my ipod I did not receive a barcode to send my old ipod back to apple with. I wasn't sure if apple would send me some packaging to return the ipod.

I have a first generation ipod nano which is being recalled, and after going thru the registration process was meant to get a barcode to send the old nano back with but it was blank. In the registration process it also mentioned about apple sending out packaging to return the old ipod. Just wondering if anyone has been thru this process and can offer advice?

Yes they will send you a box with return label. I have been waiting for a month for a box. Just got off the phone with customer service and they said it would be another 3-4 weeks before I receive a box for replacement. Once I send it in it will take another 6 weeks to get the replacement after they receive it. I also hear it a 1st gen nano that will be the replacement.Apple says they were overwhelmed by the response to the recall. Looks like they dropped the ball when they have to spend the money!

Place the iPod Touch into DFU mode. This will be similar to what the factory would do to install the iOS onto new iOS devices.
Placing it into DFU mode will allow you to "format" and install the current iOS for that device.
To place your iOS device into DFU mode.
First connect you iOS device to you computer.
Open iTunes if not already open
Now turn off your iOS device using the power swipe.
Press the home and sleep button on your iOS device for 10 seconds.
Release the sleep button but carry on holding down the home button. For another 10 seconds.
Your iOS device should now be on DFU. Click on restore and iTunes will download the latest iOS for your device.
Hopefully that sorts it if not, you will have to go to a service centre or call Apple Care up and get them to collect it and repair it. (replace it) Or go into an Apple Store.

- Try a reset.
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.
- Then connect to your computer and try to restore.
- See if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow a restore. For recovery mode see:

- If the logo still show all the time, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an hour try the above again.

Take your phone back to the store where you got it. Tell them if they can't get it activated, you want your money back. Then purchase a new iPhone 4S.

My iphone just shut off and now wont turn back on.. is stuck on the apple screen.

my iphone 3gs is locked up... just shut off in the middle of a text... tries to turn it back on and it wont go past the aple screen??

Try resetting your iPhone by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
If you can't do that, try Recovery Mode... http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

TS1702 how do I find apps for the Ipod version 3.1.3 for the Ipod touch in Itunes?! Is there no more apps for the first gen Ipod? I've tried and tried and googled and can't find a single app that will install on this old Ipod. Please help!

I recently had an Ipod first gen with Ios 3.1.3 fixed and am in need of finding games for my son to play, but I cannot for the life of me find any games or any apps that can be installed on this Ipod! every time I download something and try to install it, Itunes keeps telling me that the app requires a newer Ios! There isn't any new Ios version for this ipod that I can find. Itunes won't install any newer version of Ios, and no new apps can be found that can be installed. Please help me.

iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Vintapps 3.1.3 - paid app.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.

When I try to turn on my old ipod nano it will flash and then go black again. only when its hooked up to the computer. whats wrong with it and how do I make it work?

Ok. My brother has an old Ipod nano. It's the tall one with the tiny screen. Anyway, he tried to turn it on one day and it just flashed white and then went black again. We tried everything we could and it still wont work. Now it wont flash unless it is plugged up to the computer. How do I fix it so it will work again?

Have you checked the volume button? It might be physically stuck. To determine whether a hardware repair is needed, you need to follow these steps:
1. Try doing a hard reset:
Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
After that: test the device to see whether the issue is solved.
2. If the issue is not solved, you should backup the device and restore it as new.
In that case, use: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup.
If the issue persists after restoring as new, you should offer the device for service.
If you get specific error messages/codes in iTunes when updating/restoring, check this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694 for causes and solutions
Good luck
