Ipod Touch , Help with keeping pics after data loss

Ok well , a couple of weeks ago one of the HDDs in my raid array went down and I lost a fair bit of data , I dont care about the songs/videos etc but some 700+ photos I had on the drive from holidays/birthdays etc I was really upset about.
Yes I know I should've had backups but I didnt so no point going there , now I have all the photos on my ipod touch 2g but now when I replaced my drive , re-installed XP and so on iTunes sees the ipod as synced with another iTunes which is obviously now inaccessible and wants to delete everything on the IPod and sync it with this new itunes.
Basically is there anyway I can keep my pictures on there or retrieve them from the ipod ????
Please help
Thx in advance

IPod touch crashed with white screen after using Griffin TuneJuice

Hello all,
I have an iPod touch first generation that has worked flawlessly for about 1,5 years. Recently I bought a Griffin TuneJuice (external battery) to get longer battery life. The salesperson said it should work with the Touch, and it did at first. But later on it did not charge the iPod anymore. I tried disconnecting and reconnecting, restarting the iPod and so on.
Suddenly the screen of the iPod went completely white after a reboot. I can not get it to show anything anymore. I have tried resetting (holding power+home for 10 secs), reformatting and restoring, upgrading the firmware to 2.2 but none seems to work.
Googling for the problem it seems everyone who encountered this got it repaired under warranty, which is obviously not a solution for me since it's too old. So what I need to know is from a technical point of view what goes wrong when the screen is blank. The iPod seems to work otherwise (for example, it syncs perfectly with the computer and the "clicks" are playing).
I guess that something must be wrong with the firmware at a lower level than iTunes can repair. Is it possible to repair the firmware by using some lowlevel tool?
Or could this be a hardware problem (the guy in the store suggested the docking connector might have broken or short-circuited). In that case, is there any good guide on how to open and repair an iPod?
From searching different forums it seems the problem is quite common, and I hope that someone smart enough has got the problem and managed to solve it.
Thankful for any help.

hold the power bottom and the home bottom then it will shut off after that just turn it back on ,then it should work, it may take longer than 10 seconds, you gotta be patient.. because i had the white screen and did this, hope it helps.

Ipod touch help with missing accept button for terms and conditions

I want to update my apps but when I try it tells me that i first have to accept the new terms and conditions, however, there is no accept button to click.
I have tried the other option to have it sent by e-mail but when I open the e-mail it's still the same with no accept button.
I went into settings and allowed cookies on safari.
I have an ipod touch 4th gen with ios 6.1.3. I am also not able to buy any apps, music , etc.
Someone PLEASE help!!!!

Under Safari settings I have also "cleared history" and "cleared cookies and data"
I have also given the i-pod both a restart, and a hard restart (holding the power and home buttons until the apple appears)
"private browsing" is set to off. "block pop-ups" is off too.

Serious Lag with OS4 update on 8gb iPod Touch, help with firmware rollback

Hey all,
I updated my 8gb 3rd Gen iPod Touch to the 4.0 OS today and now i'm experiencing serious lag with everything. I want to roll back to an earlier OS, say 3.1.2 or 3.2 but I cant find anywhere to download a copy, its like apple force you to update then leave you fending for yourself with no options to download previous versions.
Can anyone help?
Any other 8gb Touch owners having similar issues? Really not worth it just for folders and spell check...
Oh and Apple should be disgusted at how hard it is to find the link to make your own topics on this site, I'm a fairly skilled user and I was chasing my tail for a good 30min...
Firstly **** this place makes it hard to find how to post a topic

I find it comical that EVERYONE was complaning about the lost of features for 2nd gen ipod touchs, yet even now people complain of lag issues, imagine if apple DID put multi tasking and wallpaper on the 2nd gen.

Haha, I think its because of the logic we are using, cause I am a skilled user as well, and I had never attempted to make a topic here before either, I spent 10 mins looking and gave up lol.

Ipod touch 3rd gen keeps crashing after 4.2.1 update

so I downloaded the new iOS 4.2.1 update and ever since then my ipod touch 3rd generation (which is a refurb by the way) kept crashing -- didn't matter what app it was on (even on some of the programmed in apps), it would just crash and go back to the home screen. and whenever I'd be scrolling through any list, it would freeze up and take a second or two to scroll. it also would just randomly stop playing music, even if it was disconnected from the computer. it's been a severe pain in the butt and VERY frustrating!! i talked to several friends and they said it wasn't just me, the same thing had been happening to them. just wondering if anyone had found a cure yet?

Try letting your iPod run to flat battery (where it turns its self off) and then charge it fully without playing with it for that time
you may have to repeat this 2-4 times

All of my playlists made on my Ipod touch 3rd gen keep disappearing when I sync it to itunes. Drivng me crazy. All software up to date on both itunes and Ipod. Help please.

I tend to make my playlists right on my ipod. This did not happen for the last 2 years. Just started recently. Did get a new computer recently.

That is because you got a new computer. You can only sync all media from one syncing computer. You can sync from any computer to iPod using the manual method but that does not sync from iPod to computer.
To make this your syncing computer:

After being connected to a charging source overnight try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Since i have upgradet my ipod touch 3g with the new 5.0.1 version, i can`t upload music or pictures or apps or anything else. the synchronize button is gray and allows nothing. the i tunes version is the 10.5.3 ... please help me!

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

because you do not have a 3rd generation device. The OS Version says so , otherwise you would be at 4.3.5 minimum and also Itunes is also always correct in determining if you have the latest OS ( if not it fetches the newest from Apple's Servers ) . And because a 2nd generation iPod stops at 4.2.1 you can't get the newest OS, because your device is old. Buy a new iPod , they have iOS5 preinstalled.

You must update your iTunes software to 10.5 first then you can upgrade to iOS 5.
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
According to Apple the iPod touch 3rd gen can update to iOS 5.
"iCloud requires iOS 5 on iPhone 3GS or later, iPod touch (3rd and 4th generation), iPad, or iPad 2; a Mac computer with OS X Lion; or a PC with Windows Vista or Windows 7 (Outlook 2007 or 2010 or an up-to-date browser is required for accessing email, contacts, and calendars). Some features require a Wi-Fi connection. Some features are not available in all countries. Access to some services is limited to 10 devices."

IPod touch Generation 3 keeps turning off after taken off of the charger. How can I fix this?

My iPod touch will not stay on after I take it off the charger. When its on the charger it says it is completely charged. I can do everything on my iPod when its on the charger but as soon as I take it off the charger it turns off. When I try to turn it back on all it shows is the apple for a while and then it turns back off. How do I fix this?

- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
