Ipod Touch (3rd generation) connection to a TV
Can anyone tell me how to connect my Ipod Touch (3rd generation) model A1318 to a TV to display YouTube and Video?
The Apple Store have advised me that they don't have a cable that will do this but to use a third party one with third party software from Itunes.
Thanks,
Steve.
There is no special software. You just need apps that support TV out. Just not that TV out does not mirror the iPod's screen.
You do not need a dock, just the cable. From the link I provided:
A dock can be a welcome addition if you're going to keep your cables connected to the TV. The Apple Universal Dock includes an Apple Remote so you can pause and adjust the volume from a distance

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:

My iPod was working fine and then my oldest son put in a flash drive to download some music and now my iPod will not connect to iTunes.
Doublechecking something. Are you still back at SP2 for your XP? Or do you have SP3 in place? -

How do you connect an IPod touch 3rd generation to wifi using wifi protected setup?
Hi all.
I have an IPod Touch 3rd Generation using software 5.0.1 that I am trying to connect to my wifi. I just got a Cisco DOCSIS 3.0 Gateway router (model #DPC3825 if any of that matters). It's default setup is wifi protected setup which invovles the pushing the button on the router or entering a pin. I cannot find any pin on the router nor can I find anyway to enable something on the IPod for the push button. Any advice on how to get this connected? Is there an app I have to download or a setting I need to change?
ThanksI have that same model modem. Here is the user guide for that modem as mentioned by lllaasss above.

We have an ipod touch, 3rd generation, 8GB. we lost the unlock code. we now try recovery via itunes, but can't connect to the ipod software update server. any suggestions?
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 -
i recently got an ipod touch 3rd generation, i cannot seem to get it connected to the internet... it connects to the router but cannot seem to get connected to the internet, it seems to connect to the router for a very short while and then suddenly disconnect again, i have tried various solutions but cant seem to solve it, this seems to be a common problem as i have seen many complaints on other forums, many say it may be the dns server . please can any one help?
Tap Settings / General / Reset / Reset Network Settings.
See if that helps.
If not try the iPod touch - Wi-Fi Troubleshooting Assistant. -
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, 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.

IPod Touch (3rd Generation) 30-Pin Dock Connector to 3.5mm
Can anyone tell me if there are any 30-Pin to 3.5 mm connector cables available for the iPod Touch - 3rd Generation? I used to have several of these that I used with my 80GB Classic (connecting my Classic to my car stereo, home stereo, portable speakers, etc.) , but none of them seem to work with the 3rd gen. touch.
Thanks!Check out SendStation's "PocketDock" with a 3.5mm jack and mini-USB connector. This gives you line-out audio level from the 3.5mm jack, much better than the headphone output.

Please help and thankyou in advance!Hey; thanks for replying & sorry for the late reply.
I just tried resetting the ipod but sadly it still doesnt work. Will it try when its off? Because the USB is not letting the ipod charge.
I do have the plug to go with the USB but it wont work with either the netbook or the wall charger. I was thinking of trying another USB wire and hopfully it would work. What do you think? -
