Ipod touch now frozen after trying to upgrade from 1st gen to 3.1.1

I've got a 1st gen ipod touch and bought the upgrade software from i-tunes to upgrade it to 3.1.1 so I can add apps to my ipod touch. It started off well but then just froze!! My ipod touch has the apple logo and a progress bar which is partly completed. I left it for ages and nothing progress and when I checked Itunes it said it was no longer responding. I shut itunes down and tried to restart it but it just keeps saying its not responding. Any idea on what I can do to get my Ipod touch back to 1st gen or to complete the upgrade to 3.1.1?

- Try resetting the iPod;
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next connect to computer and try to restore via iTunes- Next see if placing the iPod in recovery mode will allow a restore. For recovery mode:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
- If you can't turn the iPod off (e.g., logo, spinning wheel) always shows, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an hour try the above again.

What OS is on the Install/Restore DVD that came wit your G5? If Tiger 10.4.x, you will need a black, retail Leopard install DVD. There is no free download of Leopard, only free updates once you have installed the base OS.
First use your Mac's Install/Restore DVD to install an OS & apps. Then upgrade the OS.
Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store *but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753)*.

After you install the base 10.5, download & install the 10.5.8 combo update at http://support.apple.com/downloads/Mac_OS_X_10_5_8_Combo_Update

IPod Touch is frozen after firmware upgrade

Hi, I have a 2nd gen iPod Touch, running firmware 2.2 with Windows XP.
Yesterday I upgraded the firmware to 3.1 from the iTunes store. After downloading the installing the firmware, I got the itunes error 1601 and now, the iPod is perpetually frozen with this screen:
http://km.support.apple.com/library/APPLE/APPLECAREALLGEOS/HT1808/HT180803.png
The iPod device is not detected in iTunes anymore. Also, the 'Found New Hardware Wizard keeps popping up and then it tries to search for the driver but cannot locate it, whenever it tries to search it comes back saying "The hardware was not installed because the wizard cannot locate the necessary software". I checked the Device Manager and it is not listed under one of the "Universal Serial Bus controllers" either.
I have tried the restarting Windows and using a different USB port, but to no avail. Attempts to restore the iPod also leads to iTunes error 1604.
Would appreciate any help! Thank you!

Welcome to the discussions,
make sure your security software is not blocking the USB connection to your ipod, see this article for more info: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3125

Touch is frozen after trying to install 2.0 update

I just unpacked my refurbished 16gb ipod touch, installed the latest version of itunes and even was able to throw a few songs on it. Trouble stuck when I tried dloading (purchased and paid for!) the 2.0 update so I could install the free games and aps etc. It took me to a screen where it said it would download and sync which could take up to 30 minutes. Only took about 8. I think it was 2 hundred something MB. So the progress bar looks like it is working, then I get an error message 5 min later with a number, 1602 I think it was. I'm not sure because I am unable to get to that point again. After that it says I should restore to factory settings, I will lose all my songs and installed aps blah blah, so I say yes do it cus this thing is f'ed. Then the progress bar comes up again and a different error message to follow (1604?). Now it is in this frozen state with a picture of the usb cord being plugged into the itunes icon ??? Has anyone else experienced this or had a similar problem? I called the customer support after hours (will call them tomorrow) and was chatting with this robot and there wasn't even an option for what I am describing in his list of 'frozen images' schpeal. There was the 'frozen apple' image, 'syncing to ipod' image and others but this sounds like a new one. HELP!
Thanx

it's just happened to me today too when i tried to install the 2.0 update
and it happens everytime i try to update my ipod touch

Upgraded from 1st gen Touch to iPhone 4S, now I get the beachball every time I connect the old iPod Touch

I recently upgraded my verizon cell phone to an iPhone 4S, and had been using a first gen iPod Touch, which is still quite functional and I'd lik eto give it to someone else in the family to use. The problem is that after the first time I connected the 4S, now iTunes will hang (spinning beachball) everytime I try to connect the old Touch. Auto sync is turned off. I've even tried to create a separate account to no avail. As soon as I disconnect the touch, iTunes resumes normally.

okay, this was too difficult for the masses visiting here. it was too difficult for me to figure out as well.
Plan B -- if i want to start over, do i reinstall iTunes? do i reset my iPhone? do i switch the SIM card from the old iPhone to the new 3G? my 3G currently just gets stuck syncing contacts. if i turn contacts syncing off then it'll get stuck syncing calendars. if that get unchecked then it'll get stuck syncing mail stuff . . .and then bookmarks, etc. if i turn off contacts, calendars, mail, and bookmarks then the sync happens just fine with music and ringtones and other stuff.

New ipod touch requires 10.5 can i upgrade from 10.3 to 10.5?

Hi there,
like many other mac users I am now in the position of owning the latest ipod but run an OS that is no longer supported namely OS X 10.3.
I have always owned my software and have never infringed any copyright agreements, thus in order to use my new device the ipod touch legally, I require to part with 85 GBP for OS 10.5.
My question is is there any precedent available and/or information on making the jump from OS X 10.3 to OS X 10.5 in one leap.
Dare I say it should be possible, otherwise, surely to give up the sale of tiger 10.4 leaves me with two options; search for a copy on ebay or buy a new machine...
mmmm not made of money
cheers in advance

You would probably do better backing up your old system, which you should do anyway, and making a clean breast of it with Leopard by installing via an "Erase and Install" option (screen right after language selection - select Options).
You can then import what you need with the migration assistant.
There are many apps and things that might not work if you performed a simple upgrade.
Of course, if you create a bootable clone of your old system, it really doesn't matter, but there are issues with passwords, permissions, etc that may be problematic if you simply upgrade directly.

Upgrading from 1st gen iTouch to 4th

I'm getting a new iPod touch soon after my 1st gen has served me well for three years. But I'm worried about how and if I can get all my information from my old iTouch to my new one. Will I simply lose all the data I've added to the calendar, address book and a great deal of other information specific to other apps? Or can I back it all up and transfer it to my new iTouch?
Best regards.

If you first connect your new iPod to the same computer you uses with the old computer you should be informed that there is a backup of an iPod already on the computer and would you like to restore your new iPod with the backup of the old iPod? Just say yes and your new iPod will be like your old one with respect to content. When I bought my new iPod I restored it with the backup of my iPad and everthing applicable transfered. As expected, iPad-only apps did not transfer.

PIX 515 issue after trying to upgrade from 601 to 622

Hello,
I am having the following problem on my Cisco PIX 515:
I had been running:
Cisco Secure PIX Firewall Version 6.0(1)
PIX Device Manager Version 1.0(1)
Hardware: PIX-515, 32 MB RAM, CPU Pentium 200 MHz
Flash i28F640J5 @ 0x300, 16MB
BIOS Flash AT29C257 @ 0xfffd8000, 32KB
I upgraded the PIX to pix622.bin. That seemed to work, but the PIX did not boot after reload.
So I reverted it to pix601.bin.
That seemed to work, and my configuration file was still in place and all my services worked as before.
However, upon reload I get the following error:
Reading 2445824 bytes of image from flash.
32MB RAM
imgsum_config: sumval(0x1f8e) md5(0x95937073 0x75b817db 0x54d7811a 0xba7d0214)

Thoughts? Help?

You get this error using the console right?

Upgraded from 1st gen to 3G iPhone

i went to the apple store and bought a 3G iPhone last week. it took the place of my 1st generation iPhone. it works just swell.
but my first generation iPhone still connects to my iTunes and i can add movies i've rented from the iTMS. i can do everything with the old iPhone except make calls (no service). but it does connect to the home wireless network and it continues to get email and stuff like that. i don't believe it should still be synching with my iTunes account since i've replaced it. but never-the-less it's sort of like having an extra iTouch for my kids to play with and they can watch movies on it and not borrow my 3G. but i digress.
my 3G syncs with the same account and it receives phone calls and all of that just fine. but every time i plug it into my computer it acts as though i don't have MobileMe set up. i click on the Info tab of my iPhone in iTunes and it has a button to set up MobileMe. i don't understand why. my MobileMe is turned on . . . and i get new email pushed to my new 3G iPhone. it's clearly working and clearly connected to my account. yet, every time i plug it in it wants me to set it all up again. i've set it up twice and i just checked all settings and everything is just as the directions indicate, yet i can't get the "Set Up Now" button to go away -- and the button just takes me to Apple's website to a tutorial anyway.
does this have something to do with my old iPhone still working? was the Apple Store supposed to take my SIM card from my old iPhone and put it into my new one? they didn't, fwiw.

okay, this was too difficult for the masses visiting here. it was too difficult for me to figure out as well.
Plan B -- if i want to start over, do i reinstall iTunes? do i reset my iPhone? do i switch the SIM card from the old iPhone to the new 3G? my 3G currently just gets stuck syncing contacts. if i turn contacts syncing off then it'll get stuck syncing calendars. if that get unchecked then it'll get stuck syncing mail stuff . . .and then bookmarks, etc. if i turn off contacts, calendars, mail, and bookmarks then the sync happens just fine with music and ringtones and other stuff.

My iPod Touch is frozen on the iTunes music note logo and the USB plug picture. Tried resetting - didn't work. Tried restoring - didn't work. Any ideas besides throwing it out my window?

Does the iPod/iTunes go through all the steps of restoring the iPod? If yes then:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes): This issue is typically caused by out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software. Please followTroubleshooting security software issues if USB troubleshooting does not resolve this issue.
