Itouch 3rd gen

My itouch 3rd gen was working fine until i tried to lock the screen. The lock button stopped working so i reset in itunes. It would not restore to any backups so i restored as new ipod. Power button works again but when i start up, it gets to the lock screen, freezes, and the loading circle comes on. I have restored about 5 times, reset, and everything else mentioned on apple's troubleshooting guide. Any other suggestions besides taking it in?

Does it charge?
- 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.
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Facetime on itouch 3rd gen

Hi im wondering if there is going to be a facetime app for the itouch 3rd gen? that will be able to connect to a computer with a webcam!! something like the icam app. Do you think this will ever happen??

I doubt it since the earlier iPod do not have a camera. The FaceTime Beta app for Intel Mac computers will not install if the computer does not have a camera.

Itouch 3rd Gen to Itouch 4th Gen???

I have an Itouch 3rd gen, If I buy an Itouch 4th gen, can I backup my 3rd gen and restore it to the new 4th Gen. (migrate) Thanks in advance.

Most everything gets transferred.
I did have to setup my lock code again, but that was about it.
And of course there are a few new features to configure that were not on your 3rd gen

Unexpected on and off (itouch 3rd gen ISO 5.0.2), unexpected on and off (itouch 3rd gen ISO 5.0.2)

unexpected on and off (itouch 3rd gen ISO 5.0.2), unexpected on and off (itouch 3rd gen ISO 5.0.2)

Just get into "General" -> last option is "RESET" -> Opt for "RESET NETWORK SETTINGS"
Your phone will reeboot in a couple of minutes n then get fine on with full signal on the wifi scale.
Worked perfect for me. Do try n let me know.

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. 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."

How many apps on an itouch 3rd gen 32Go

Hi ! any idea of the amount of apps which can be supported by an Itouch 3rd gen, 32 Go ? Thanks

How many do you have now? There is a limit to the number of home pages you can have that will limit how many apps will be displayed, but that does not limit the ability to add more. It just means they will not be displayed. You can use the search function to locate them, however.
I believe this is covered in the manual. IPod Touch user guide

Having issues updating itouch 3rd gen to ios 5

You actually have a 1G iPod Touch, which can only be updated as high as iOS 3.1.3. See here to help you verify the generation.

Accessorie compatability with itouch 3rd gen vs. 2nd gen

I am waiting for my new iPod touch 3rd generation to come in the mail. While I am waiting, I have been looking at different accessories. I am new to the itouchs, and I wanted to know if the things that work for 2nd gen will work for the 3rd gen. This includes cases, chargers, etc.
Also, are there any good speakers/radio/charging dock etc that works with the new 3rd generation itouch?

if you upgrade to 3.0 peer-to-peer gaming only works on the 2G Touch. as for speakers there are very small ones you can just attach under it, dubble click the home button and you get the volume controls without unlocking it, the battery life isn't a huge difference either. The biggest difference is the Bluetooth
