Just bought an iPod Touch without january updates
Hi,
Two days ago, I bought an iPod Touch 8GB in the Apple Store of the 5th avenue. I asked if the firmware included the january updates and the Apple salesman told me all iPods were up to date.
Unfortunately, this was wrong. I paid full price for an iPod Touch without the updates, and I can't find any link to customer assistance for such an issue on apple.com. Since I already left NY, I can't go to an Apple Store, too.
Anybody knows what to do? I find it really amazing that 1 month after the updates, such a problem can occur.
Thanks
Hello,
Try giving AppleCare in France a call and explain the situation. Keep calm and ask if it's possible that you send in proof of purchase in return for credit on your iTunes account for the difference:

Let us know how you get on.

Hi My grandparents just bought an iPod Touch for me from Dubai, UAE. I can't see any facetime on the home screen nor in the settings. I've read that it's not possible. But is it possible if I get my OS updated again from India?
There is no way you can activate Facetime on an iPod touch purchased in the UAE. The government there required Apple to lock off Facetime at the hardware level and there's no way to unlock it. Reinstalling iOS, regardless of country, will not help. If you want Facetime, you will need to sell your UAE-version iPod and buy one there in India.

I just bought a ipod touch. I am unable to use it because itunes tells me I have no internet connection (unknown error 306). I have tried all the suggestions I can find, including checking the firewall, the no proxy server is checked, resetting cache on itunes, I even scanned the computer with Registry Easy but nothing worked. I use Mozilla Firefox and have a PC with Windows 7. Obviously, buying a ipod and being unable to use it for 3 days (and counting) because I am unable to register it, is pretty frustrating. Can anyone help?
Did you try all of this:
iTunes Store loads partially or returns "Error 306" or "Error 10054"
Proxies, parental control settings and software, security or filtering software, or a bad iTunes Store cache can cause this.
To address proxies, Remove Internet Options proxy settings and connect to the Internet without a proxy.
To reset iTunes Store cache:
In iTunes, choose iTunes > Preferences (Mac) or Edit > Preferences (PC).
Click the Advanced tab.
Click the "Reset cache" button.
Click OK and see if the issue is resolved.
Adjust Parental Controls in iTunes:
Open iTunes.
Access iTunes preferences:
On a Mac: From the iTunes menu, choose Preferences.
On a Windows PC: From the Edit menu, choose Preferences.
Click the Parental Controls tab.
Remove restrictions on Parental Controls.
For more information on parental controls or content filtering software, see iTunes 10.5 for Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store.
For more information on other security software, see iTunes: Troubleshooting security software issues. -

Just bought new iPod touch. When I connect to computer to sync it tells me "iTunes could not connect to this iPod touch. Could not send a message to device." Not sure if it is b/c of an older version of iTunes but connecting via wifi sync unacceptable
What version of iTunes is on the computer? You need at least 11.4.

i just bought my ipod touch 32mg, i cannt get it to start up. when i get to the screen connect to itunes it wont let me go to any other screen to finish setting it up.
You need to use a laptop or a PC. Download and install iTunes. Create an iTunes account and then use the USB cable to connect your iPod to your computer.
Depending on the amount of charge in the battery it may take a few minutes for iTunes and your computer to recognize the iPod.
When iTunes detects your iPod you can give it a name and set up how and what you want iTunes to synch to the iPod.
While you're on line, connecte to the App Store and download the owners manual for your iPod... -
I've just bought an ipod touch but I cannot get beyond the question asking me for a network name. I don't have a mobile telephone which I think this question is referring to. All I want from an ipod is to listen to music. What should I do?
You have to activate a new iPod by either setting it up via wifi network that has an internet connection on to connect to a computer that has iTunes and an internet connection.
You can go to an Apple store or or to a friend's house if necessary -
just bought an ipod touch 2nd gen 4.2.1 and past owner didnt remove the passcode what do i do
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

I just bought an ipod touch 4th generation recently, found that it is very difficult to plug and unplug the USB cable from my ipod. Does anyone have this problem?
Some of the Dock connector cables have very small buttons on the rounded adge of the plug, which need to be pushed in to release the plug from the iPod. Look at the picture below, do you notice the "button" on the white connector edge? There's one on the other edge too and they both need to be pressed in to release the "evil looking spike" sticking out of the grey edge.
The shorter plugs (that I've seen) do not have the release mechanism, the plug simply pulls out. -

I just bought a ipod touch 5th generation space gray but i think there is a problem
I just bought a ipod touch 5th generation space gray today and I feel that the audio isn't as good as I expected. When bought an Ipod touch 4th generation, the audio was so good but now its not. I bought a 5th generation expecting that it would be just as good as the first time I played audio on my ipod touch 4th generation.
What should I do?Yo have 14 days after purchase to return it for a full refund if yo purchased it from Apple.

Hi everyone,
I have just bought new Ipod touch 32 GB and upgraded to 5.0.1 and it it worse now my battery doesn't last for more then two hour.
what should i do? it is seriously big problem.
Please help me.......This is a general comment, not directed to anyone, and not to be taken personally by anyone. This ongoing screw up with the new upgrade (5.0.1) is getting to be a **** SHAME. In no way can APPLE or anyone else for that matter not know by now that the upgrade is terribly flawed. The Ipod machines themselves are super great products, and I enjoy mine to the max. However the upgrade once applied ruins it. And at least, not to my current knowledge, there haven't been any fixes forcoming.
In my opinion Apple should own up to that fact and warn folks that, even though the upgrade was presented with the best intentions, IT JUST AIN"T WORKING. And not to download it until further notice. This noticication could be done through the retail sales outlet, online, what ever.
I liken this to a pharmaceutical coming out with a new vaccine, encourage everyone to use it, then discover it's bad to the degree it causes it uses to become sick. Rather then pull the vaccine they keep on allowing unsuspecting ones to continue to vaccinate, and become sick. What a shame!
