I have an 1st gen Ipod touch that runs 3.1.3 IOS.

1st Gen Ipod touch 3.1.3 ios. No apps will work on this ios is there anything I can do to fix this? Thanks

There are only a few apps currently available for the 1G iPod. There is no way to search for only compatible apps. You just have to look at the Requirements section of apps that interest you.
The only real solution is to purchase a newer model iPod

I have a 4th gen iPod touch that won't power up! I tried all the traditional stuff. I want to know how to tell if the battery is good. itunes see's the ipod in recovery mode. Tried dfu mode and did not work. Any ideas? I can hear the PC beep when plugging it in! I suspect a bad battery and trying to charge it ina wall charger made it hot!

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.
- 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. The appointment is free.

I have a 3rd gen iPod touch that's acting up...Please help.

I have a 3rd gen iPod touch...I also have the most recent software update but when I have the iPod on shuffle it will skip past songs w/out playing any part of the song and it will randomly power itself off even when battery is more than 50%. Help

I have tried all except the restore at this point. Thought I would try here first

I have a 1st gen iPod Touch and have purchased the ios 3.1, but cannot get it to download from the store to the iPod? On iTunes, it says that I have the current version of 2.1 Help!

I have purchased the ios 3.1 update for my 1st generation iPod Touch, but cannot get it to download. When I check the summary on iTunes, it says that I have the most up-to-date version of 2.1. I really need to update to 3.1 to download some games for my son. I have an iPad and do not want to purchase a new iPod if I can get some games on the current one.
Thanks in advance!

So you are saying that you purchased it by:
Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)
Is iTunes signed into the same iTunes account that purchased it?
How long ago did you purchase it?
Did you purchase it on another computer?

1st gen ipod touch won't restore.

I have a 1st gen ipod touch that I've been having minor troubles with (trouble syncing from time to time, album artwork is mixed up etc) and decided to do a restore. I followed the directions to the letter, and everything was working fine until after my ipod was wiped clean. Now the ipod shows up in itunes, but I can't access anything that I normally can. the ONLY option I have is to eject it. I'm really worried that I'll never be able to use my ipod again, which is kind of a big deal at this point. Help?
-- I am running OS10.5.8 on my macbook.

I'm starting to wonder if there's not some sort of issue brewing here. I had roughly the same thing happen to my 1G iTouch, though it happened gradually -- first, it wouldn't recognize the third-party car chargers I own, but worked okay on the computer. Then, after a couple months, iTunes stopped recognizing it. I had to do a complete restore to get it functioning again, and I had to restart/reboot the computer and the iPod, with nothing connected to the computer but the iPod, the keyboard and the mouse, and a totally clean re-download/install of iTouch firmware 3.1.2.
Things worked fine for about a month -- until last night. I followed every troubleshooting step: reinstalling Apple Mobile Device Service, repairing permissions, powering down completely for 60 seconds, and disconnecting everything from USB except the mouse, keyboard, and iPod. It took about 9 tries before it finally went through with a restore.
I unplugged it, used it for about an hour or so today, then tried to plug it back into the computer. It recognized it at first, but then flashed back and forth between the battery screen (showing that it's connected/syncing) and the regular wakeup screen (with the unlock slider), giving me multiple "failed connect" messages in iTunes. I'm about to start the whole rigmarole again, it looks like.
Is anyone else having these kinds of repeated problems?

Getting App off 1st Gen iPod touch to use on iPhone

I have a 1st gen ipod touch with an app that is no longer available in the app store (the original EA SimCity). I want to save it to my pc so i can put it on my iphone, but when I backup or sync my ipod touch, it doesn't backup the game. Any way I can get the game off the ipod onto my pc or into itunes? I want to play the game i paid 5 bucks for, but EA cleverly obsoleted the game and re-released it under the same title with one tweak.

Transfer iTunes purchases to the computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computerIt is an all or no transfer. Then sync the app to the iPhone.
If you also want the game status restored:
- How to transfer game saves between iOS devices, without iTunes, and without jailbreaking | TUAW - The Unofficial Apple Weblog
- Or backup the iPod to iTunes and restore the iPhone from that backup. All the apps have to be in the iTunes library since the backup does not included synced media like apps and music.

1st gen iPod Touch with iOS 3.1.3 - update via wi-fi?

That's basically it. I found my old 1st gen iPod Touch and wanted to update the iOS, but I am away from my computer with iTunes.
I do have wi-fi though.
I tried via Settings->General->Update. But it doesn't have an update option in settings.
Anyone?

A 1G iPod Touch can not be updated past iOS 3.1.3. Only the 3G and 4G iPod touch models can run iOS 5 or later, which added in the ability to update via the Settings app.

Installing old apps on 1st gen iPod touch

Hi all!!
Ok I have a 1st Gen iPod touch and I have 2 apps that were updated from iTunes but when updating it
said that it couldn't update due to old system but the old apps stayed on my iPod but when I did a restore
the apps are not on my iPod and it say that the apps are no longer compatible with my old iPod. I have checked
in my Time Machine and I have the old apps vers that USED to work with my touch but when I did a restore via
Time Machine it doesn't work (that way). Is there a way that I can restore those two apps with Time Machine so that
I can make it work again for my touch??? They are still on my iTunes but under the new vers that will only
work under IOS 4+. Any help would be welcomed!!!
Serge

How can I delete the new ones?? Even if I do, the iTunes site doesn't have the OLD vers that would still work with
my iPod I do have'em on my TimeMachine but don't know how to restore them to make it work. I wish that iTunes
would keep all generation of apps so if you need to restore you'll be able to get the old app back. I can't even use
ebay app no more. So sad. Any way thanks for the help lllaass!!!

Can't sync apps to 1st gen ipod touch

I have a 1st gen ipod touch and can no longer sync apps. My itunes says that the software is not compatible even though i have the latest updates. Is this a lost cause or can i fix it.
Apps I have previously had will no longer sync either
HELP

I too have a 1st gen and running 3.1.3. I've tried to download various apps and get the banner warning. What really is disappointing is the fact 2nd gen and up is supported. There really wasn't much of a time difference in the release dates so this is another example of apple FORCING it''s bread and butter to keep shelling out cash. I've resorted to just using this thing for what it is. A MP3 player. When it dies, I'll start using my Android phone for music. My 4 teens have all been told, make your ipod last as I'm not buying a replacement. Those who have drunk their kookaid I hope suffer a hardware failure when it matters most. Shame on you apple for treating your customers this way. . I've had enough and I hope you lose more market share as time goes on to a more open and as far as I'm concerned, a better produce, Android. Good night.

Issues with iTunes and 1st gen iPod Touch

Since today, iTunes does not start automatically anymore when I connect my iPod Touch. If I launch iTunes manually, it recognized the iPod and syncs normally. What might have happened here and how can I fix this? The option in the preferences to automatically sync when an iPod gets connected is activated.
I have a 1st gen iPod Touch (2.2.1), a Mac Pro (OS X 10.5.6) with iTunes 8.1.
Funnily enough, iTunes starts immediately whenever I connect my old iPod nanos (2nd and 3 rd gen).
Next steps, which I will try, are reinstalling the Apple Mobile Device Service and if that does not help, restoring the iPod touch.
Any ideas?
Best,
Mustrum

You unchecked the "Open iTunes when THIS iPod is connected" on the Summary Tab.

Out of date 1st Gen Ipod touch

I have a 1st Gen Ipod touch, but i cant download apps because its software only goes to 3.1.3. Can it be updated past this or can I bring it in and get a new one being that I am a faithful customer?

Sorry, no they will not replace it with a new one. You will need to sell the old iPod and purchase a new one.

We have a second generation Ipod Touch that no longer works.Will Apple let you trade it in for a refurbished Ipod Touch?

I have a @nd gen Ipod touch that no longer works..Can I trade it in for a refurbished IPod?

See it this 10% discount covers a refurbished one. I know it covers purchase of a new one.
