Ios4 not working on 3rd generation ipod touch

i received a free ipod touch with my mac computer about a month ago. I just finished downloading ios4 and the only thing that is different is that it has the new dock and I can make folders, but multitasking and home screen wallpaper, or any of the other features are not working. Is anyone else having this problem, or can anyone tell me how to fix this. And I know for a fact I have the latest generation ipod touch, I just got it a month ago.

That stinks...

  • Why do the new earphones not work with 1st Generation iPod touch?

    Does the 1st generation iPod touch not "recognise" [recognize if you are American] these functions? I am talking about the microphone and the button on the new earphones.

    Then why don't apple make ear phones with microphone which the 1st gen itouch will recognised...
    Because the Touch is primarily a music player, that is what I purchased and I'm quite satisfied with it as it is.
    I'm so fed up of the way Apple Market...
    What are their plans for their consumers... to
    to keep buying new Ipods?!?!?!
    Err...Yes! Welcome to the real world.
    3G Iphone was released shortly after the Iphone...
    why couldnt they make us wait longer...and get the 3G
    You still don't understand this commercial world do you?
    same with Ipod Touch... yes i Understand new Gen ipods...would have better features...
    Let's all wait a hundred years when they bring out the the brain implants...
    But hey wats up with making us fall with Apple...we like the designs, the features...but why then bring in new ones that apple know will not let our old ipods adapt to it.
    You like the design, you buy it, enjoy what you have and don't get so jealous.
    Sick of Apple... they do it on purpose... I guarantee...
    No way?!
    the new Iphone to realease next year....would be Iphone 8.0 mega pixels camera video recording....either way...they would make their customers regret for buying their old Iphones and Ipods...
    If so, then I might buy one, but then I wouldn't moan if a better one was released six months later.
    4 now, do something about the new ear head phones....cos apart of app store and applications...we want to be ablt to use microphones...to communicate on social networking...and voice memos...
    This maybe because the hardware is simply incompatible, they cannot cover every eventuality, had they done so the Touch would have been more expensive and I would not have bought one.
    Technology moves on, fact. I you don't feel Apple are playing fair then just avoid their products, that'll learn 'em.
    By the way, if you want Apple to hear your thoughts go here - [Feedback|http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html]

  • The USB Power Adapter NOT working for 3rd Gen iPod touch!?

    Hi Apple dudes
    Well.. Look here:
    http://store.apple.com/dk/product/MB051ZM/A?fnode=MTY1NDA4NA&mco=MTEyNjA0NTg
    As you can see, the iPod Touch 3rd Gen (I got 32 GB, 3rd Gen) isn't listed as a compitable device.. So now I don't know whether to believe the text or the compitable list.. I really don't wanna wasted an already outrageous price on a simple thing like a adapter - And really, what's up with you NOT being able to charge your iPod from a regular USB power adaptar - NOOOOO, it HAS to be the APPLE-MADE one, cause it's soooo white.. Yes, I'm frustrated, 'cause my first time with an Apple product hasn't just been as your slogan says: "It just works!".. Nop.. Problems, confusing software, and you wouldn't even let me now that my username was already taken when I creted this account. Come on... Took me several "Create now" and Browser-switching to figure it out..
    Sorry for this aggresive ending, I hope you can help me with my problem after all
    Regards
    Alexander

    Alex:
    Welcome to the  forums!
    I can't help you with things like user names. Apple handles that; I'm an Mac/iPod user, not an Apple employee.
    Tech specs for the unit you have can be found here: http://www.apple.com/ipodtouch/specs.html. And, based on the back view (4th image) on the page you listed, I'd say you could use it for your iPod, because you should have the USB charge-cable that came with the iPod. (The one that plugs into the computer, and hence, into the back of the charger.)
    However, I'm not an expert in European iPods, being American.
    As for software...Apple software, if you're used to using Windows, takes time to get used to. I'm still finding things out, and I switched a year ago. It takes a little time.
    Best of luck--
    Doc

  • 3rd generation iPod Touch not recognized by Mac & iTunes!

    My 3rd generation ipod touch is not recognized on iTunes but is recognized when I plug it into a different computer. I've tried reinstalling iTunes numerous times and have referred to other online tutorials. With no success, my iPod will still not show up on my Macbook, and I've never experienced a problem like this before with either device. My mac and itunes still recognize my iPhone so I don't know why they would recognize one device but no the other. Solutions?
    Any feedback will help greatly. Thanks.

    It should work fine.  I have a 1st gen shuffle, and it still works...
    If you are updating to iTunes 11.x for the first time, iTunes may hide the sidebar initially, which is where the shuffle appears.
    If the iTunes sidebar (along left side of window) is not visible, from the iTunes menu bar, under View, select Show Sidebar.  In the sidebar, the shuffle should appear under DEVICES.

  • I have 3rd Generation IPod Touch, it does not boot up.  We have tried to restore, but we are stilling receiving errors.  Any ideas?

    I have a 3rd generation IPod Touch that no longer boot up.  I've downloaded the recovery, but it does not work.  It just lights up briefly and then we receive a message that the IPod drivers are not readable.  Any ideas what we can do to resolve?

    If iTunes is not seeing the iPod try:'

    You said you "download the recovery"?  What is the recovery?

  • TS1398 my 3rd generation ipod touch recently lost wifi capabilities. I reset the network settings... this did not help.  I did a complete reset, I now no longer have the Safari icon on my itouch.  Has Apple removed wifi on older models to force new purcha

    I recently lost wifi capabilities on my 3rd generation ipod touch.  I reset the network which did nothing so I did a complete reset.  This actually removed the Safari icon off my itouch and still wifi is completely grayed-out.  Has Apple removed the wifi capabilities to force the purchase of new items?
    I find it completely disturbing that only recently has this become an issue for 3rd generation itouch users.
    Can someone please help as I am exceptionally frustrated

  • 3rd generation ipod touch is locked and says to connect to itunes.  It will not connect to itunes because it is locked.  What do I do?

    My son has a 3rd generation ipod touch.  He couldn't remember the passcode and locked it up.  It is saying that you have to connect it to Itunes to unlock it.  However, when I hook it up to Itunes, it says that you have to unlock it first.  I need help in getting it unlocked!  Someone please help me???

    You'll need to connect it to the iTunes library you normally sync it with and restore it.  If iTunes asks you for this passcode before it will let you proceed, connect the iPod to iTunes in recovery mode instead using the instructions in this Apple support document.
    iOS: Unable to update or restore
    If recovery mode doesn't work, try DFU (Device Firmware Update) mode instead using the instructions in this article.

  • Can someone tell me how to backup my 3rd generation ipod touch?

    I have a 64GB 3rd generation ipod touch. I have been  trying for the past two days to back it up to my laptop but it will not work. I have heard that if i update it without backing it up it will delete everything on my ipod and I really dont want to do that unless it is a last resort. Should I just update it and start from scratch or keep trying? Please someone help me .

    Follow these instructions. When you restore from backup as the article says, the iPod will also be updated

  • I have a 3rd generation iPod Touch and just did the update to IOS 5. Now I can't connect to my Netgear wifi router. My iPhone connects fine along with all of my other laptops etc. I have the router set with WPA-PSK [TKIP] security and an access list.

    I have a 3rd generation iPod Touch and just did the update to IOS 5. Now I can't connect to my Netgear wifi router. My iPhone connects fine along with all of my other laptops etc. I have the router set with WPA-PSK [TKIP] security and an access list. I've confirmed the mac address is included on that list and that the password is correct. Under choses netwrok I select the network and it just goes into a spin. I have tried removing the password and the access list settings and it still will not complete the connection to the router thus no internet access. The routers firmware is also up to date. This thing worked fine before this update and I've already tried to restore from backup. Any ideas or is the wifi nic bad in this thing with the new apple firmware update? Any fix?

    Thanks Bob, I don't know why but it all of a sudden worked a few days later. It's a mystery but at least problem solved.

    My 3rd generation ipod touch won't charge or turn on. I keep charging it, but it show the exremely low battery screen. It also flashes the apple logo like it's turning on, but it just stays on that screen or flashes and goes away. It won't connect to itunes. I've tried holding the power button and home button at the same time to get it into recovery mode, but it doesn't work. I don't know what else to do.
