IOS4 and iPod Touch 3rd Generation 8GB

So since the two coolest features definitely won't work for this, those being multitasking and custom backgrounds, then what will? What exactly will be different after this upgrade?

Check the site http://www.apple.com/ipodtouch/ios4-software-update.html
Ignore multitasking,home screen wallpaper, bluetooth keyboard, and faces and places in photos since you have windows xp.
There is airplane mode-cuts off wifi,bluetooth,location services with one swipe
If you go to albums in your music you will see a change that is similar to albums on itunes for the ipod touch.
Folders for apps
There is a new design for the dock.
50 fixed vulnerabilities in Safari
Bing added as a search option
and so on...

    Update Server
    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem

  • WHERE IS AN IPOD TOUCH 3RD GENERATION 8GB MANUAL?

    I just bought an iPod touch that was described as a 3rd gen 8 gb. Apple support shows:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353#iPod_touch_2nd_generation
    that it is a 2nd gen and that there were no 3rd 8 gb.
    I'm looking for manuals or tech from apple.

    That's correct. There never was an 3G 8GB iPod Touch. It was incorrectly referred to one by some resellers and retailers.
    There is no official user guide for the 2G iPod Touch running iOS 4.2.1 from Apple. You may be able to find an unofficial one online somewhere still.

  • IPod touch 3rd generation 8gb??????

    i've read numerous stories about how there isn't one but my nephew has a 8gb 2nd gen. and the back of mine looks different, the font size is smaller, but that is the only difference, other than that, is there really one???

    Sorry, Apple did not make an 8gB version of the 3rd generation. Check the model number on the back. A1288 is a 2nd gen. A1318 is 3rd

  • HT4972 I have an iPod touch 3rd generation with IOS 4.2.1 and the newest version of iTunes.  However, when I press "check for updates" it says that IOS 4.2.1 is the current version.  How do I update?

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.

  • LOST: iPod Touch 3rd Generation MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA

    LOST: My iPod Touch 3rd Generation 8GB. Grayish-white flexible cover. The Words "Michayla Binkley, With Love Mom, Dad, and Tina." On the back. I know it's something like that. I lost it around the time of 8 p.m on Sunday, June 27 at South Point Park in Miami Beach, Florida. If you have found my iPod and are kind enough to give it back, please add and message me on Facebook. I would really like it back, so please be kind. Here's my facebook. Please private message me. http://www.facebook.com/michaylalove

    Guess this is a failed expirement. I created this post so that I could see if it was realistic and believeable enouh because well I'm a writer, I used real details and places to make it sound real. Though I guess doing this gave me bad karma cause my real iPod got stolen a couple weeks ago. So Double fail. at least it was believeable I hope.

  • Does the ipod touch 3rd generation not support games?

    I recently purchased an ipod touch 3rd generation for my granddaughter.  We loaded music onto it with some difficulty but have been unable to load games.  Am I doing something wrong or does this unit not support games??

    Yes.
    To more easily find compatible apps:
    iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
    Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.

    Also are yo sure yo have a 3G?
    A 3G goes to iOS 5.1.1 while a 2G only goes to iOS 4.2.1

    To update
    Connect the iPod to your computer and update via iTunes
    iTunes 10 for Windows: Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    A 2G to 4.2.1. Requires iTunes version 10.X. If a Mac it requires OSX 10.5.8 or later. With 1OSX 10.4.11 you can only go to iTunes 9.X which gets you as high as iOS 4.1
    A 3G to 5.1.1  Requires iTunes version 10.5 or later

  • The backlight on my ipod touch 3rd generation will not come on, but everything works perfectly. I even used the advice given on the tech support page, and it still will not come on. HELP ME PLEASE.

    The backlight on my ipod touch 3rd generation will not come on, but everything else is working fine I even took the tech support advice by plugging it in and resetting it, but that didn't fix the issue either. I need help.

    If not this:
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem.
    Also heating sometimes works. See:
    Why can't I select my wifi settings?
    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.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Then:
    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? See other networks? If yes that tends to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - 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.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network      
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • IPod Touch 3rd generation is not turning on and gets really hot when I plug it in but is not charging...

    I have an iPod Touch 3rd generation and yesterday I was using it and noticed that it reset to a different time zone and when I dug a little deeper realized that it reset the date to December of 1969. I just went in and changed it all back. I was out of the house all day today and didn't take it with me, when I went to use it, it wouldn't turn on. I assumed it was dead, so I plugged it in and got ready for bed. I realized that the charging screen never appeared and it never made the little noise it does when you plug it in. I picked it up and right near where the charger plugs in, it was very hot. I use it when it'd plugged in from time to time and it is NEVER that hot. I then tried to plug it into the computer where it again didn't do anything and didn't show up as a device that was plugged in on my iTunes. Again, it got very hot very quickly. I am using the cord that came with it and an actual Apple brand wall charger. I don't know what else to do. Some people said to hold the two buttons down for a little bit, but nothing happened on mine. Please help!

    Warm is normal, too hot to handle, literally, is not.
    If you're concerned, make an appointment at your local apple store and have them check your charger out.

  • Ipod touch 3rd generation will connect to my wifi for a few seconds and then nothing will load. help please?

    I have an ipod touch 3rd generation 64gb and it has iOS 5.1.1 and it will connect to my WiFi for a few seconds and then nothing will load. It says I have full connection bbut nothing works. I have 2nd generation ipod and it connects fine. Along with my laptop and xbox 360. I have tried downgrading it and restoring it from itunes. I also tried forgetting the network and inputting it myself but it sti does the same thing. I even tried resetting my wireless modem but it still didnt make a change. I really could use some help. I can't call apple cause im no longer under warranty.

    Reset the iPod and connect to its syncing computer.  It it shows in iTunes restore the iPod.
    Next see if placing the iPod in recovery mod will allow iTunes t see the iPod so you can restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

  • The lock and volume button's no longer work on my iPod Touch 3rd Generation?

    I've had my iPod Touch 3rd generation for about two years now, and have had hardly any problems with it... but now the lock button on the top of the ipod and the volume control button on the side of my ipod no longer work. Because the lock button won't work, I cannot reset my iPod. What can I do to fix this?

    Assuming that this is not a hardware problem have you tried restoring your iPod? If that does not work then the only thing may be to take it in for repair.

  • IPod touch 3rd generation crashed while updating, and now it won't turn on, and it wont charge or be recognized in iTunes; it's been like this for 3 days now. Please help,..Thanks!

    iPod touch 3rd generation crashed while updating, and now it won't turn on, and it won't charge or be recognized in iTunes because it's completely dead; it's been dead for 3 days now. I've tried pressing home/sleep buttons for reset but nothing works, I've tried using different usb ports to charge it, but nothing seems to work. Please help asap. ...Thanks!(:

    After charging the iPod for half an hour, see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow iTunes to see the iPod so you can restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:
