IPod Touch 2nd gen 32GB  Mac OS 10.6.4

Since I have upgraded to iOS4, I have run into the following problems:
1: Safari crashes on many of my previously favorite websites. They start to load and whamo a back screen and then my home screen returns.
2: Very slow to open most apps. Takes many times as long as previously.
3: Slow wifi. I'm practically sitting on top of my modem and I am getting only one little rainbow bar showing. This happens at other wifi locations too, so it's not a modem incompatibility.
I have erased all of my coockies, history and cache to little avail.
I have restored my iPod from my Mac.
I have erased and re bookmarked my sites.
I'm only using up half of the RAM so its not that.
What else can I do. I love the folders, but this isn't worth it.
Thank you in advance.

Notes are part of your Mail program and should be listed in the left window, right beneath you inbox.
If you don't find them there and still have a backup from the time before you restored "as new ipod", restore from that backup, it also contains your notes.
More info on the content of your backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 . Include the ipod backup folder in your backup as well, if don't use Time Machine already.

  • IPod Touch 2nd Gen (iOS 4.2.1) stops playing certain songs but screen remains.

    iPod Touch 2nd Gen 32GB
    iOS 4.2.1
    roughly 4.89 GB free
    During playback, the Touch stops playing on certain specific songs, but the screen remains as is (that is, doesn't go back to menu or black).  I suspect "bad blocks/sectors" on the memory chip, but have no way of checking.  Pressing pause and then play again doesn't help.  Skipping back to previous song and then forward doesn't help.  Skipping forward does not work (next song doesn't play).  This affects only certain very specific and recently added songs.
    I've tried Reseting (erasing all content) and Restoring from backup.  Problem still occurs.
    Next step is to Reset (erase all content) and setup as a new ipod.  Then reload music content.  All content is AAC at 192kbps or lower.
    Anyone have any thoughts?

    If the songs play OK in iTunes on the comnputer:
    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.
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.             
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Ipod touch (2nd gen) not connecting to itunes on mac air

    I have an old iPod touch (2nd gen) and want to sync it with my macbook air, but it will not show up on my mac or in iTunes. When connected it is charging so there is nothing wrong with the cable but i do not know why it is not showing up on the macbook.

  • IPod touch 2nd Gen 8gb will no longer Sync photos.

    all the posts I could find that were similar had to do with ipods that were jailbroken and on Windows.
    I have iTunes 10.1, iPhoto 6.0.6. running on OSX 10.6.5
    iPod Touch 2nd Gen 8GB OS 4.2.1
    The Problem: Since I got 4.0 and later, I have not been able to sync photos from iphoto. itunes says that it is, the bar moves and says all photos have been synced, all the photos I want synced are checked in itunes and still nothing when I check them on my ipod. iPod says no photos in album. I tried deleting the ipod cache on my mac, nothing. I tried syncing to a single file folder with the same photos, same. I tried exporting all the photos I wanted synced to a separate folder to jpg and smaller resolution, same result, no photos on ipod.
    Note. the photos used to sync up until 4.0
    I have also tried starting from scratch and putting it back to factory defaults then going from backup. Same result.
    I have tried rebooting both iMac and iPod, same thing.
    and I hate how I can't just email apple and tell them the problem.
    Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. I just can't seem to find anyone else with the same problem.
    Thanks in advance for the possible help.

    I dont get an error message at all. itunes just does its normal business when syncing and says its synced, but no photos. I have never tried mobile me, so I dont think my problem is connected. I dont have $300 to get a new ipod. this makes me sad.

  • IPod touch 2nd gen software downgrade?

    I have an iPod touch 2nd gen. 8GB. It's current version is 4.2.1. I upgraded using my brother's mac. My mac can no longer update it's own software therefore not allowing me to update my iTunes to iTunes 10. I was wondering if there is a way for me to down grade my iPod so that I can use it on my own computer. I have already tried downloading iTunes 10, but can not run the program because of my computer's software being so far behind. I do not want to have to purchase another computer, I just want to know if it's possible to downgrade my iPod touch. If anyone has possible solutions it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Upgrade the OSX on the Mac.  If it is an Intel Mac then the $29 Snow Leopard upgrade disk will do a full install. Otherwise you need the Leopard disk.  You can purchase it from Apple for $129 but you have to order it via phone since it is not listed in the on-line store.

  • Nike + app missing on iPod touch (2nd gen) after restore

    Memory errors prompted a wipe and restore of my 32GB iPod touch (2nd gen) system. The restore and subsequent reapplication of the 3.x upgrade produced a system without Nike+ software.
    I've had considerable issues with the reliability and accuracy of the software in the past, but now it simply isn't there.
    Has anyone else seen this and does anyone know how to restore that application? (Since it is not available in the app store.)
    Thx

    Well, i have the same problem, but when i go to settings the nike app it just doesn't appear, so, i'm not able to turn it on. Is there any other way to download the nike app?

  • I need help diagnosing my iPod Touch 2nd Gen

    Hi,
    I have an iPod Touch 2nd gen (8 gig) that I won from work over a year ago. There is no warranty and I was hoping to get this fixed myself, if at all possible.
    Last weekend I was visiting my parents house in pretty hot weather. I meant to take the iPod out and put it int my pocket, but had forgotten it, of all places, on the dashboard of the car.
    I can imagine it got way over 100 degrees and it was there for at least 3 hours time.
    After that incident the iPod would not turn on. When pressing the top power button, the Apple logo would appear, but after a few minutes it would shut itself off. The normal "on" button in the bottom middle had no effect at all on it.
    When I finally got home I tried doing all the steps I was able to do on my own.  Restore, reset, recharged…. ect.
    The current status is that the iPod works great…. when plugged into syncing mode from my Mac at home. When disconnected though, it will only stay on for about a minute before shutting itself off and never being able to show more than the Apple logo when pressing the top power button. 
    I have an external recharger that connects directly to a wall socket that also will not let the iPod stay on. Just seems to work when synced to my Mac. Battery power says it is fully charged.
    Very long explanation but I was wondering if anyone has run into this themselves, and if so what did you do to fix this? I am wanting to believe it is a dead battery but wanted some insight from others before taking any action.
    Thanks all for reading this.

    Likely a batter problem since high temperatures destroy a battery.  I wold make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store to see what they say.  It is free except for your time.

  • After iOS5 upgrade, iPod touch 2nd gen won't let me edit calendar events

    I have an iPod touch 2nd gen with the old processor, so I'm stuck using iOS 4.2.1 on the touch.
    Meanwhile, I have a MacBook and new iPad running Lion/iOS 5.
    Before I upgraded to iOS 5, I could edit calendar events from either my macbook or from my Touch.  Now, I can't edit calendar events on the Touch, and when I add new ones from the Touch, the options are restricted (e.g., I can't designate which calendar the item belongs to).
    Please help!  This functionality is very important to me because I take the Touch to work, but not my other mac devices, so I need to be able to edit on the go.
    Thanks,
    Carl

  • Help restoring iPod touch 2nd gen to OS 3.1.3

    I have an ipod Touch 2nd gen that had been updated to OS 3.1.3. I haven't had many problems with it. The last time I had to restore it was when iTunes 9.1 was new and I downgraded back to iTunes 8.
    I keep getting a message that there is purchased items on the iPod and do I want to transfer them to the Mac if not then it will be deleted from the ipod. I click on "don't transfer", but the next time I try to sync I get the same message.
    I tried restoring the ipod and it keeps insisting that I should "restore and update" and I don't get a "restore" option. I don't want to update to OS 4.
    The odd thing is iTunes apparently keeps tossing the iPod2,13.1.3_7E18Restore.ipsw and iPod2,12.2.1_5H11aRestore.ipsw into the trash without my permission.
    I tried updating from a backup copy and this time it let me click "restore" but then apparently it phoned home to Apple and it said the ipod was "not eligible" to restore to OS 3.1.3.
    I tried turning off the internet connection and then it refused to restore at all. >:(
    The only thing that I can think of is that iTunes is either 1. trying to force me to buy an update I don't want or 2. that it thinks I have to update the iPod Touch because I bought an iPhone 4. >:(
    I really preferred the days when we could just run a standalone ipod updater. Does anyone know of a way I can force the ipod Touch to be restored either to the original iOS 2 or the updated iOS 3 (which afterall I did pay for !)?
    Thanks.

    You cannot restore to OS 3.1.3 simply because Apple has stopped signing that particular firmware. What happens is for every firmware your device creates unique keys knows as SHSH blobs. For you to be able to update or restore to that firmware Apple checks those blobs and signs them (ticks them off). However if Apple has stopped signing them which it has for OS1 OS2 OS3 O4.0 & OS4.1 you can no longer go to those particular firmwares. Currently Apple is only signing OS 4.2.1 firmware so you can only restore to that one.
    Note- There is one final hope for you to restore to 3.1.3. Google SHSH blob extractor.

  • Email access on Ipod Touch 2nd gen 8G

    I have an iPod Touch 2nd gen 8G. I've set up my gmail and hotmail accounts on it, both of which work fine at home (unsecured wireless). However, I couldn't get either one of them work in my office (secured wireless). I could, however, manage to get access to internet in my office. Is it possible that firewall setting on company's server has caused this? If yes, is there any way to get around?

    I have the same issue, but w .mac acct. I want to be able to seemlessly transition from home to work and be able to send & recieve email on ipod touch.
    Work has firewall beyond wifi router. Is this the issue? If so, what info do I need from IT guy to input to make it work?

  • HT4972 previously used apps won't work after system restore?ipod touch 2nd gen.?

    My son forgot his passcode so I had to restore his ipod touch, 2nd gen.  After the restore, many of his apps no longer work.  He had Netflix, Facebook, Angry Birds.  They now all say they require ios 4.3 or 5.0.  Does anyone know how to get these apps back on his ipod?  thanks!

    Many developers when they updated their apps to support iOS 5 and 6 dropped compatibility for iOS 4.2.1 and earlier.
    Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.
