Ipod Touch 16GB 2nd Generation

I purchased a 2nd Gen 16GB Ipod Touch from Argos in October 2009. There is a kind of clicking noise when I touch the righthand side of the screen. The lefthand side makes no noise. I was just wondering what I should do as the 16GB is no longer availiable to buy.

You have to buy updates through iTunes and install them through iTunes.
You cannot update the OS directly on the iPod touch.
If you already have 3.0 on the iPod then you will get 3.1 for free in iTunes.

  • Wireless connection to ipod touch 8G 2nd generation

    I may have to use a different wireless router, (which could be one which uses wireless n), as i am having to change my broadband service provider. So can anyone advise me what wireless does the ipod touch 8G 2nd generation use (ie wireless b/g/n etc) & are they compatible with wireless n/wireless routers, or is wireless n backwards compatible/generic etc with all other wireless/devices.
    THANKS

    All the iPod Touch models are b/g except for the newest 4th generation which is finally now "n"..
    Yes, they are backwards compatible.
    2nd generation (b/g)

    I have always used all Apple Base station.
    Time Capsule, Airport Extreme, and also the Airport Express of which I have 3...
    I am now using the Dual Band Airport Extreme for the main base station and the 3 Airport Express units for Airplay and one of them to extend the network.
    Works well with the Dual Band.

  • Will iPod touch 16GB 5th generation be updated to iOS 7?

    Have son with a reading disability. I want to load his audio textbooks on an iPod. The current price on the 16GB Touch 5th gen is very attractive, but not being able to update to iOS 7 would be a deal breaker. Thoughts?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    The only iPod touch that can be upgraded to iOS 7 is the 5th generation iPod touch, so you will be able to upgrade your device when iOS 7 is launched in fall > http://www.apple.com/ios/ios7

  • IPod Touch 16GB 1st Generation - touch screen area stopped working

    Hello there, the last 2 days I'm experiencing a problem with my 16GB 1st Generation iPod Touch. One cm under the top of the touch screen and for about 10mm height, the screen is not functioning. I noticed this when I was on the AppStore and tried to buy an app. Exactly at the "Buy" button and on full width the multitouch screen doesn't work at all (touch/scroll/zoom etc.). I use OS 3.0 and I've installed it from my PC with the latest iTunes. I use the latest OS since it's release day and only yesterday the problem appeared.
    The iPod is protected with silicon case since day 1, also has a screen protector and it's never dropped, scratched or anything that could cause this problem. I believe the problem/bug/dysfunction it's software related, even tho, I've restored the iPod erasing all it's data to the factory settings with the last OS, the problem remains.
    Do you suggest me to downgrade back in version 2.0 and see what happens? Do I have to to downgrade to version 1.0? Please advise cause here in Greece the service doesn't exist as in the rest European countries and as in the rest of the world who has official Applestores.
    I use both Mac and PC with my iPod Touch, so you can suggest solutions for both platforms. (Leopard/Vista)
    I'm waiting for a response as soon as possible, thanks in advance and please advise me as an experienced user
    The iPod Touch is bought from US and brought here in Greece on January 2008. It's the iPod with the January Update in case you're wondering.
    Thanks for your time,
    Vangelis Makridakis.

    Seems that the problem isn't software related.
    I've downgraded to 2.2.1 from 3.0 and nothing happen.
    I can't buy apps from AppStore, I can't join a WiFi network and much more...
    Apple made *faulty digitizers* (touch screens) cause as I've searched on the internet, many others have the same problem. Since it's out of warranty, Apple is covered... BUT customers should know that even if they don't drop their device or if they protect them, no matter what, one day they won't be able to touch some random areas of their screens.
    As a customer _I demand answer_ and also a replacement program for faulty digitizers since will be confirmed that the customer never dropped or scratched the faulty device.
    Also, since in Greece (where I live) we don't have Apple official representation as the rest of the European countries, I probably will have to pay A LOT to Rainbow S.A for a digitizer replacement and also to wait about a MONTH to get my device back.
    Thank you Apple for making perfect products with the chance becoming lemons instead of apples.
    Vangelis.

  • Ipod Touch 16gb 1st Generation Problems

    Hello I bought my Ipod Toch 1st Generation June 6th 2008. I am having problems with my Ipod Touch, at first after about 2 weeks of owning it dust started to build up under the screen, I did not think much of this but after I really looked at how much dust was under the screen. If that is not bad enough just last week I noticed 3 dead pixels on the screen. I tried the pixel frozen test and did not fix, and this morning when I truned on my Ipod I noticed that I no longer have three pixels gone but now a whole chunk of the screen gone to "dead" pixels. I was just wondering if I could send it into Apple for them to fix it or if there was a way for me to fix it my self.
    Cheers, Eric

    Unless you bought the Apple Care Protection plan your out of warranty. If you have that give them a call or visit your local store and they should be able to accommodate you.

  • Can I updated my iPod touch 8GB 2nd generation?

    Hi.. I have a old iPod touch with ios 2.2 and i try to update it but I couldn't do it, because a mistake takes off "iTunes couldn't restore ur iPod error (-1)". What Can I do?

    Error -1
    Attempt to restore your iOS device two more times. If the issue is still unresolved, the device may need service.
    The "device may need service" means a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Unable to activate new ipod touch 16gb 4th gen

    Hi I just got a new ipod touch 16gb 4th generation & how turned it on to charge & set up etc.  I've connected it to my home wifi modem but from thereon it is unable to activate.  I have no idea of what software it's running.

    I've since been able to activate it to a degree - had to connect to a computer & download iTunes.  It still won't let me sign in even though I've set up & verified an apple login.  Very frustrating!!

  • IPod Touch, 16GB, Generation 5, will not sync with my computer?

    I purchased an iPod Touch, 16GB, Generation 5 from Wal-Mart. I've tried everything from re-installing iTunes to rebooting the computer and iPod. However, even after clicking Trust, it won't fully trust my computer as well as iTunes isn't recognizing it. For reference, I'm using a Windows 8, Dell PC, and iTunes is fully up to date.
    It will download music from the store on the device itself, and iTunes recognizes when the purchases are made on the device, but it still won't sync it.

    Try:
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Featurs appin the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components

  • Replacement iPod Touch 8GB (2nd Gen) beggining to fall apart after two months!

    Well my problem is plain and simple
    My first iPod touch (8GB 2nd Gen) was working perfectly fine until one day it slipped from my hands and the screen shattered. I took the iPod in to Best Buy and they overlooked the serial number and looked up my plan (product replacement plan) and they took it in and sent it out. They promised me a refurbished or a new iPod touch. They said it should take only about 5 days but it took two weeks, but in all fairness it was around a busy holiday seasons so i can understand the holdup. My Apple warranty was already up when i took the first iPod in for a replacement so i just used my product replacement plan. 2 weeks later i recieved my refurbished iPod in the mail, how could i tell it was refurbished, well for one the back of the iPod was void of any scratches but there was no Apple or "iPod" branding?! They also did not include the headphones used with current and past models, they shipped headphones that were changed years ago to a new design, i tested the headphones, and they were broken. I just said oh well and when i went to plug it in with the "new" cord they included i noticed there were stains all over it and i had to disinfect them (..yuck!) it made me certainly rethink even using the headphones in the first place. One thing that seemed odd to me was that it included OS 3.0 since 2nd gen iPods only ship with OS 2.2.1 and after checking the settings i confirmed it was in fact a sencond generation iPod Touch. After about a week of use i plugged in my headphones and i could only hear through one side, i unplugged them and replugged them and the problem was resolved and i thought it was a fluke, so i just disregarded it but its been a month now and since last week no matter what headphones i use i always get sound from the left channel. I was honestly furious that after only 1 month the ipod it starting to fall apart in front of me. I inspected the iPod closely and noticed that if held a certain way the glass on the lower right coner of the iPod begins to move around. The home button has also failed to respond quite a few times. Then when one day the external speaker started to begin to become flaky and sometimes not work at all, i just said "thats it!" im currently resetting the iPod to factory settings and putting a test sound on it for them to listen to and see the problem. In fact when i received it there was already a test sound on it so i presume there was a problem with the jack previously? I am repackiging everything and am off to geek squad tommorow, if there is any other advice to offer please let me know. Ive treated the iPod like a child after the first one shattered and the device has never been dropped, the screen and the back cover are spotless (minus the small scratches on the back chrome cover just from normal use) the iPod has never been near water and i checked the iPod to see if infact water could have gotten in the iPod and the sticker was still sparkling white, i am sorry Best Buy ive been a customer for years and while do not mean to rant and complain it has only been to months and its already falling apart?! i am sorry that is just not acceptable.

    I just got my ipod touch 2nd gen 8gb replacement ipod in the mail two days ago. And i fell that my screen has cracked way to easily. I had my other ipod touch before this one for a year and a half and the screen had never been cracked. But my first two days with this "replacement" ipod has cracked twice. i am willing to take the blame for the first crack as i dropped it in the street and my case didnt do its job, but lasnight i put my hand in my sweatpants pocked only to find small peices of glass. i took out my ipod and there was the problem. a large shatter on the bottom near the homebutton. Seriously 2 cracks in 2 days with my REPLACEMENT after 360+ days and no cracks with my forsure APPLE ipod touch? I doubt my ipod touch screen is even made by apple.

  • HT4623 my ipod touch is 3rd generation.

    My ipod touch is 3rd generation. I have done all the erase and restore things in the article and it still is  using ios 4.2.1. It does not have a button that says software update that i can find and the computer did not update it.  What can i do?

    This may indicate you have a 2nd generation. Please check the model number on the back and post back. If it is A1288, it is a 2nd gen.

  • HT4623 my IPod Touch is a generation 3 with a camera and when i go into my settings and try to do what the instructions on your website say but in general i only have About and then the rest of the bars but i don't have one that says Software Update

    my Ipod Touch is a generation 3 with a camera and when i go into the settings to look for the Software Update bar i don't have one

    If you have cameras then you have  4G iPod. To update connect to your computer and update via iTunes
    iOS 4: Updating your device to iOS 5 or later
    - A 4G to 6.1.5  Requires iTunes version 10.7 or later. For a Mac, that requires a Mac with OSX 10.6.8 or later
