ITunes and iPod touch 8gb 3rd generation

I had downloaded some songs to my iPod from iTunes and then something happened when I was syncing the iPod and the computer and now some of the songs are gone off of the music list in my music app on my iPod. I tried to redownload them and it said I had already bought those songs and asked if I wanted to continue. I said no because I have paid for them already and hated to pay for them again if I did. Is there a way to get them back? <edited by host>

Sorry, there is no 8gB, 3rd generation. You have a 2nd gen and it can not be upgraded beyond 4.2.1

  • My ipod touch 8gb 3rd generation keeps dropping wifi.  I hate to reset since i've downloaded all of my itunes directly to my ipod.  Help!

    My ipod touch 8gb 3rd generation keeps dropping wifi.  Doesn't matter where I am - happend ALL the time.  Almost useless now except for all of my songs!   We don't have any other problems with other computers in our house.  I have downloaded all of my songs from itunes directly to my ipod (I know, I wish I hadn't) so I hate to reset or I will lose them all.  I have never downloaded any updates (I know, I know!) so could this be my problem? How do I find downloads and what do I need?  Please help if you can!

    The reset may help with the WiFi issue, but you'll have to do the reset to be sure. It does seem to cure a wide variety of issues. At some point you should be connecting the iPod to your computer/iTunes account, otherwise you risk losing all of your music and other content if you have a problem with your iPod.

  • When i plug in my ipod touch (8gb, 3rd generation) it doesn't turn on and the apple logo flashes on and off. how can i stop it and turn on my ipod??????

    when i plug in my ipod touch (8gb, 3rd generation) it doesn't turn on and the apple logo flashes on and off. before this it wouldn't turn on unless it was plugged in.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Need to sync calendars between two iPod touchs,  8GB 3rd Generation

    I use Microsoft Works on my PC and iTunes does not recognize the Works calendar. Therefore I use the iPod's Apps calendar. I recently purchased an identical iPod for my wife and can't find a way to sync the calendars between the two iPods.

    I think you can sync both of them to the same Google Calendar account when you have WiFi access. See this: http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138740&cbid=riutrlst6g 98&src=cb&lev=answer

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
      Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • HT4623 my ipod touch is 3rd generation.

    My ipod touch is 3rd generation. I have done all the erase and restore things in the article and it still is  using ios 4.2.1. It does not have a button that says software update that i can find and the computer did not update it.  What can i do?

    This may indicate you have a 2nd generation. Please check the model number on the back and post back. If it is A1288, it is a 2nd gen.

  • My iPod Touch 8GB 3rd Gen is acting slow.

    I just got my iPod Touch 8gb 3rd gen and it acts slow whenever I try to use youtube, mail, safari and whatever else that needs wi-if. I restored it twice, but no luck. What should I do?

    Humor me: define slow. Slow as in a few seconds, or slow as in 30 seconds, or slow as in a minute or longer?

    Go to www.ecamm.com and d/l PhoneView.
    To prevent a sync when plugging in the iPod/iPhone - hold down the 'option' and the 'command' keys when plugging in the iPod/iPhone - key the keys down until the iPod/iPhone is listed under the Devices list in iTunes - this will prevent a sync from taking place.
    With PhoneView you can take the content from the device to the iTunes library.

  • My iphone 3gs wont update. itunes and ipod touch update no problem, my GF has exact same phone and hers updated also...any advice?

    My iphone 3gs wont update. itunes and ipod touch update no problem, my GF has exact same phone and hers updated also...any advice?

    If I was in your shoes, I would choose to restore the iPhone with iTunes and then choose to NOT restore a previous backup.  I'd then go on to set up the phone as though it were totally new, and choose the stuff to load onto it.
    The reason I'd go through that trouble.. even though it meant losing a lot of settings and having to set stuff up again .. is because I wasn't sure I could trust the backup that it's restoring from.
    If you have trouble again after doing the fresh reload -- especially if it's soon after you do it -- you may have a hardware issue with the phone, such as faulty flash memory or a processor chip that's failing. If that's the case, you'll want to consider your repair/replacement options at that point.

  • Recently played list different on iTunes and iPod touch

    So I recently got an iPod touch (8GB) and when I sync it to my iTunes (9.0.2.25) every other playlist downloads fine, except for my "Recently Added" and "top 30 most played" playlists. What I mean is the list of songs in those playlists is fine on iTunes, but on the iPod touch it is a different list of songs under those playlist titles.
    Anyone help?

    Yeah, it's kind of frustrating. What to do when you start from scratch and the problem still persists?
    I've never run into that on a Mac for example. If you reformat and rebuild something it usually handles every situation. Here it's isolated to a couple Smart Playlists, not every Smart Playlist. Unless there's something inherently askew with the OS upgrade and a Most Played & Recently Played list.
    I'm going to have to try another User forum to see if it's common or known buggy. I'll keep you posted if I learn anything.

  • Aperture, iTunes and iPod Touch sync

    I know I manage my iPod touch photos via iTunes. I know that I can sync Aperture with my iPod by choosing the Photo's tab after selecting my iPod touch device. I see that Aperture is an option, however when I choose it I get two radio buttons to pick from: "All photos and albums" and "Selected Albums". Problem is, the "Selected albums" is gray and I can not click it. I want to put photos on my iPod touch, however since my Aperture library is much larger then my ipod storage the sync ends up failing.
    How do I select the currently grayed out option "Selected albums" so that I can have some photos at my disposal?
    I am using a brand new iMac i7 with Aperture 3.0.1 and ipod touch software 3.1.3 and iTunes 9.0.3.

    same trouble with same software-versions.

  • Why does my ipod touch 8GB second generation appears to be a 2nd gen while I bought it online and that Apple has well marked on its advertising that it was a third generation?!

    I bought an ipod touch online called 3rd generation 8gb and saw that the apple site make him 2nd generation and I can't upgrade for 4.3 ! 

    You may have noticed the 8GB description was missing a few parts. And they were not advertising it as a 3RD Gen
