I just purchase a 2nd hand ipod touch

I purchased a 2nd hand ipod touch, cant get on internet says i need a wi-fi?

For accesing the internet you need a wi-fi internet connection.Not a 3G connection.
If you dont have a wi-fi at home, try to go in some public places (Restaurants,Malls etc) to find some wi-fi connections.
Or, if you dont now how to enable your wi-fi, just go to settings, wi-fi and then chose your wi-fi connection.

Go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Settings. Then setup the iPod with your account.
If necessary, place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

I have bought a 2nd hand iPod Touch

I have bought a 2nd hand iPod Touch ( told it was 3rd Gen, IOS 1.1.5) I have no APP STORE and cannot see how to add apps to the iPod Touch
I can connect through Itunes via the PC but cannot seem to find a way to add apps to it.
I've tried a Factory reset/upgrade and nothing has changed. If i try to connect to Itunes via the iPod Touch , even though I have a good internet connection, I get "Cannot connect to iTunes Store"

You have the original (1G) iPod touch. Those can go as high as 3.1.3 that you get here:
Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)
https://buy.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/touchLegacyLandingPage
You can confirm since the 1G does not have volume buttons on the upper left edge.

You need iOS 2 or later for apps.
There are not that many apps now compatible. To more easily find them:

Just bought a second hand iPod Touch 32GB 4th Gen. The IOS is currently 4.3.5 and when I try to update to the latest, the connection continually times out. Can you help?

Hi All,
First ever post on here but I feel that my options are slowly running out. I've just bought a second hand iPod Touch 32GB 4th Gen. It was reset to factory settings meaning that that software was 4.3.5
As soon as I plug it into iTunes it asks me to update to the latest version. I click for it to go ahead but the connection times out (error code 3259)
I've been on the phone to apple for over an hour and we still couldn't resolve the issue. We tried disabling the firewall, uninstalling AVG, diabling pop up blockers, checking the LAN settings, disabling the router security and anything else we could think of.
We still couldn't get it to stop timing out. I tried to download the firmware from iClarified but iTunes said it didn't recognise the software.
Has anyone got any ideas?

Just what did yo do to gt iTunes to see the download:

Hi i have just had a second hand ipod touch from my grandson but he is not very helpful with it.
Can u get onto the internet when not using wifi such as in the car or such like. my phone uses 3G can you use gps or anything.
i really do not know anything about ipods
Any help would be appreciated.

"Can u get onto the internet when not using wifi "
No.
it connects to the internet ONLY via wi-fi

Just bought 2nd hand ipod touch 2nd generation and i cant seem to get the wifi to connect as its greyed out

i just bought this ipod touch 2nd generation and te wifi is greyed out ive tried resetting and looking for airplane mode but its not there any help please????

See:
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

2nd hand ipod touch and it wont turn on past the apple/skull

So I just bought a used ipod touch, either 2nd or 3rd gen. not sure. but it wont turn on all the way. And when i plug it in the computer doesnt think its pluged in. Help??

Go elsewhere. The skul indiocates a jailbroken iPod.
Jailbreaking voids the Apple warranty and also means that you will not get any support from Apple, including from this Apple forum. Jailbreaking can't be discussed in this Apple forum.
Unauthorized modification of iOS has been a major source of instability, disruption of services, and other issues
However,
Try DFU mode and then restore

HT1353 I just purchased a 3rd generation Ipod Touch and the latest software is iOS 4.2.1 and I'd like to download some Apps (facebook, words with friends, etc.), but they all need iOS 5. Help!

I just purchased a used 3rd generation Ipod Touch and the latest software is iOS 4.2.1 and I have been trying to download apps (Facebook, Words w/Friends, etc.), but they all say I need to have iOS 5. Help!

Here are some tools to search for compatible apps (The first one is my recommendation).
iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Vintapps 3.1.3 - paid app.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
I personally havent looked for any clones of Words With Friends, but I bet you can find something.
Here are a couple apps which say they are compatible with Facebook:
Chatnow for Facebook
Friends Planet 2
Quickly for Facebook with Video Chat

I bought an iPod touch 2nd generation and it won't let me download anything as it no been updated I know I cannot get the recent update but how do I get an old one ? , also it is not showing up in iTunes or my computer so I cannot put songs on can someone please help ??

The 2G can only go as high as iOS 4.2.1. To find apps for the 2G
iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Vintapps 3.1.3 - paid app.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
To update to 4.2.1
The Settings>General>Software Update comes with iOS 5 and later.
Connect the iPod to your computer and update via iTunes as far as your iPod model allows
A 2G to 4.2.1. Requires iTunes version 10.X. If a Mac it requires OSX 10.5.8 or later.

I bought a 2nd hand iPod touch 5th gen. There is an iCloud account sign in but it is not verified. It's all grated out and the only thing that is not grayed out is the "check mail" what should I do to remove it and sign in my new iCloud account? pls help

I cannot also restore the iPod touch because the 'find my iPod touch" is on but I cannot click anything. just the "check email" to verify account

You are running into the activation lock'
iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7
If you can't get the previous owner to remove it from theri account
Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
all you have is a thin brick. I would then return the iPod for a refund.

Bought a 2nd hand ipod touch haven't got the option for software update any ideas?

how can you update the software if you haven't got the option ?

Update it from iTunes on a computer as described at the bottom of this article; there isn't a Software Update option in General on iOS versions prior to 5.0. It can only be updated directly to the newest iOS release supported by the device’s hardware.
The maximum iOS version for the first generation iPod touch and original iPhone is 3.1.3.
The maximum iOS version for the second generation iPod touch and the iPhone 3G is 4.2.1.
The maximum iOS version for the third generation iPod touch and original iPad is 5.1.1.
The maximum iOS version for the fourth generation iPod touch and iPhone 3GS is 6.1.6.
If you don't know what device you have, append the last three characters of its serial number to http://www.everymac.com/ultimate-mac-lookup/?search_keywords= and load the page.

2nd Hand iPod just purchased but can't get it to work on PC - help!?

I have just purchased a 2nd hand Ipod Nano 4GB 3rd generation. It is loaded with a 1000 songs but I would like to remove some of them and add my own. When I connect it to my PC, it comes up but everything is greyed out. Does this mean I can't do anything with it except listen to whats on there? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

They don't make an OS X version of their software.
