I just bought a used iPod Touch, 2nd gen. How do I create a new Apple ID. I have an iTunes account.

I just bought a used 2nd generation iPod Touch. The previous owner did not delete his Apple ID. I don't know his password. Meanwhile, I have a Apple ID and password from my previous Nano and iTunes library. How do I hook my new iPod Touch with my existing account? Currently, I cannot access Apps store on Touch. Help!

Sign out of the Touch and then sign in Using Your Apple ID...
No need to create a New ID...

    take it to apple store and schedule genius bar appointment.  your iPod is still under warrenty because that version is not even a year old.  They should replace it.  Good Luck!

  • How do I transfer my current iTunes Library for a 5th gen. Nano to a used iPod touch 2nd gen.?

    I was given a used iPod touch 2nd. gen because my old faithful 5th generation nano was tragically washed. But I'm scared to just plug the new one into my computer to see what happens. I want to make sure I don't lose all of the music I have on my nano. Anyone know how to do this?

    Not sure what you are atlaking about.
    Lose what mui from what ipod.
    Your music should be on your computer.  Sync it to your ipod.

    Your problem will be that AppleTV only has HDMI and optical output - no analogue out so unless say you had a B&W Zeppelin or similar that has optical in you'd need something esle to decode the audio to ananlogue.
    Some have also reported AppleTV not working for audio when TV is off or in standby.
    You may be better off having both!

    Well, there is always the possibility that it's been jailbroke, in which case, you're out of luck.  However...

  • HT4291 I just bought a used iPod touch that was held out as 2d generation.  Turns out it is not.  My problem is that I cannot reach the iStore or get more episodes for my podcasts when I am using wifi.  Any help for a technical novice?

    I purchased a used iPod touch advertised as 2d generation.  I later found that it is first generation.  I can use the device for my limited purposes but only when connected to my desktop.  For some reason that I can't figure out, I am unable to download "more episodes" for my podcasts or otherwise connect to the iStore when using my wifi connection.  Can anyone provide a fix for this problem. Note that my technical skill level is about 3 on a scale of 10.

    Does Safari work?
    Does the iPod see the networks?

    Hi ZoeKeller,
    If the iPod Touch is running iOS7, it sounds like Activation Lock may be active. You may find the following article helpful:

  • TS1591 I just bought a second iPod touch (4th gen), but when I connect the second iPod to my computer it is not recognizing it. How can I have two iPod's set up????

    So I had an iPod touch and everything with it is fine. I just bought a second one for my daughter...exactly the same as my iPod. This second one was bought used, but was reset completely before I plugged it into my computer. My problem is... my iTunes does not recognize the second touch as a device! I can't get it to sync, so I can't get any music or anything onto the device. How can I have two iPod touches on my computer? Is there something special that I have to do to get my computer to recognize this second touch as a different device?? PLEASE HELP!!!  

    - If you are using the same USB port and the same cable and have iTunes version 10.7 or later on the computer there is something wrong with the iPod.
    - Does the second iPod work?
    - Does it charge?
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • Bought a used Ipod touch 3rd gen for my child and when charged I get a screen with a picture of a computer charging cord with an arrow pointing to a music symbol.  What do I do to get it to work?

    I've plugged it into the computer and nothing happens...nothing changes....the screen still has a pic of the computer charging cord with an arrow pointing to a music symbol at the top of the screen.  I can't seem to get it to do anything.

    For how to restore see:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

  • IPod Touch (2nd gen) not recognized by computer and iTunes

    When I connect my iPod Touch to my laptop, running Windows 7, neither the computer nor iTunes recognizes my iPod. Everything worked before with Vista.
    When I plug the iPod into the computer the iPod does turn on put the battery doesn't charge and the iPod does not show on the Device Manager.
    I have gone through and uninstalled and the reinstalled iTunes, QuickTime, Apple Software Update, Apple Mobile Device Support, Bonjour and Apple Application support. With no positive result. In fact I have done it twice.
    In going back to make sure everything had installed I have noticed several things.
    The Apple Software Update, Bonjour, iTunes folders and Common Files are located in Program Files(x86) There are also copies of the Bonjour, iPod, Common Files, and iTunes folders are also located in the Program Files folder. Are these file locations correct?
    Also, I have read somewhere that there should be usbaapl.cab, usbaapl.inf, usbaapl.sys files. I can't find any of these file. Are these files necessary?
    Any help will be appreciated.

    greetings rkonrv and welcome to Apple discussions !
    it seems your have seen this KG then.
    maybe this tip by Beebopp (though a little off topic) will provide some pointers:
    +This solution is very similar to one above but worked for me. Am using iPod Touch 2nd Gen with 32 bit version of Windows Vista where the iTouch is being seen by Windows but does not show in iTunes. In my case it was being identified by Windows as a camera. I tried un-installing and re-installing iTunes and all the other Apple apps with no luck. Was almost ready to throw in the towel when I did one last search for alternate solutions and found the following instructions to reinstall the drivers, but instead of having the system look to the c:\Windows\inf or c:\windows\system 32 folders for the drivers, the path is changed to C:\program files\common files\Apple\Apple Mobile Support\Drivers, which is apparently where Vista installs the drivers. Once I changed the path the driver properly reflected the iTouch as a USB device, and not a digital camera. Try this if you are having similiar issues.+
    +Here are the steps:+
    +1. Verify you have the following files usbaapl.cat, usbaapl.inf & usbaapl.sys in the following directory "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers"+
    +2. Log in using an ADMINISTRATIVE account+
    +3. Single left click on START+
    +4. Single left click on RUN (You may need to change the start menu to 'classic view' to see RUN, you can change back after if you like)+
    +5. Type in " devmgmt.msc " then hit Enter (Don't type in the quotes)+
    +6. Look for Imaging in the Device Manager window, and click on plus sign (In Vista you may not see the "Imaging" option. Look under "Portable Devices" as an alternative)+
    +7. Now you should see " Apple iPod " as a device underneath Imaging (or Portable Devices)+
    +8. Right click on " Apple iPod " then single left click on Properties+
    +9. Single left click on the " Driver " tab+
    +10. Single left click on " Update driver "+
    +11. Select " Install from a list or specific location " or "Browse my computer" whichever shows on your version of Vista+
    +12. Single left click on " Include this location in the search " if shown+
    +13. Paste " C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers " (Don't type in the quotes) into the box " Include this location in the search "+
    +14. Single left click NEXT and keep clicking through until " Apple iPod USB Driver " is detected, if no list appears then you should see the little animated circle thingie spinning. It's looking and working. Be patient.+
    +15. Hopefully you will get a successful message.+
    +16. The correct drivers(s) are now installed.+
    +17. Start up iTunes, and see if you iPod is detected again.+
    good luck !
