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

    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.

  • 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...

  • 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.

  • Ipod Touch, 3rd generation, blue striped screen, then... nothing

    I have an ipod touch 3rd generation, version 4.2.1 (I think), model A1288, 8gb.  A month ago it stopped working and wouldn't respond to a reset by pushing the on and home buttons together, and it wasn't recognized by itunes or by my Vista OS laptop.
    After sitting for weeks, the battery must have died and I charged it and it turned on and it seemed to work fine for a day.  Then overnight it crashed and died again.  I don't know what caused the crash, it wasn't being used at the time.  When I reset it following the crash, I got the apple logo, but nothing more... and then a black screen.  When I reset it again, I got a purplish, blue laterally striped screen with the apple logo in the middle ...and then it turned black and wouldn't respond. 
    Since that time, nothing I do will cause it to turn on or respond in any way.  No apple logo, no screen activity of any kind.   When I connect it to itunes, the computer doesn't recognize it and itunes doesn't respond to it.  When I connect my ipad to itunes, it's recognized just fine.  I've never seen this before.  Any ideas on how I should proceed with repairing this?  If I could get it to start up, I could look for updates and uninstall apps to try to eliminate a conflict, but I can't get it to respond at all.  Thanks for any ideas or help you can offer. 

    - After charging for at least an hour see if placing the iPod in Recovery mode will allow a restore.
    - Next try DFU mode

    - Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • I have an ipod touch 3rd generation 8 gb, is there any way besides jailbreaking that i can get ios 4.3.?

    I have an IPod Touch 3rd generation 8 gb, is there any way besides jailbreaking that I can get IOS 4.3.?

    You do not have a 3rd gen 8Gb iPod Touch. There is no such thing - really, truely, double true, extra double protected true. {lllaass, back me up here}
    Jailbreaking cannot be discussed on Apple forums., except to point you to the following article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3743 which will let you know why Apple strongly cautions against "jailbreaking".
    You could sell your current iPod and buy a new one, which will be able to use iOS 5.
    GM:  gross mismanagement
    I suppoose jailbreaking would be a GM!

  • 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
