Lost web connection with iPod touch 2.0 software update

I no longer have access to the web through the touch. It had worked previously to the 2.0 update. I noticed the lack of connection when a few of the new apps failed to work due to a lack of web connection. I've reset the network option and completely restored the ipod. I restarted etc. as well...
I can connect to a local machine with a webserver running within my network, but I cannot connect to anything outside at all.
Shy of rolling it back the the last known to be good software version (which I am not sure that I know how to do...) I have no idea what else to do.
Hello Apple?! I want my web back, now.
Anyone? any help or ideas??

Update:
Was within another wifi and repeated hit the refresh key within safari. After several reloads, the page appeared (google). Thinking that I knocked the sense back into the touch, I returned home and have yet to get back online.
I am confident that the HW is good. still don't know why it misbehaving.

WiFi Connection with iPod touch

Hello everyone.
I have two main servers which I usually connect via WiFi my iPod with: a home connection which gives me no problem (I type my password and I'm in) and an office connection which gives me a problem. I can connect to the WiFi but once I open Safari a window shows up telling me that it is unable to find the server.
Do you have any suggestion, please?
Thanks
Matteo

I had the problem of Safari not finding the server. I searched this forum and found the following in a post:
http://andrewescobar.com/archive/2007/07/06/change-iphones-wi-fi-dns-settings-to -connect-to-the-internet/
I clicked on the link, and although it said it was for the iphone, the fix worked perfectly. There were two DNS IP addresses to try, ending with 222 and 220. My roommate and I both have ipod touches and they both had the same problem. We both changed the IP address to the one that ends in 222, but then I had the same problem with it dropping off and not connecting. I changed mine to the address ending in 220, and now both are working fine with no internet dropping.

Problem with Ipod Touch and new software (2.2.1)

After upgrading to the 2.2.1 I have been unable to listen to it using my car stereo. It will only recognize my ipod sometimes and when it does a majority of the time there will be no sound at all. On my car stereo it shows my playlists and everything but no sound. I never once had a problem with my ipod or stereo until I did this upgrade. I tried switching out the usb cord but that did not help. I then restored my Ipod. I also tried to wipe out the battery completely and then charge (heard on a different message board that that could possibly help). Still having the problem though. I have an Ipod touch and a Pioneer stereo with the USB cable hook up.

yeah i'm having the same problem i have a pioneer navigation system and it will not play my ipod touch after upgrading to 2.2 i called apple to try to find a way to downgrade and they never gave me an answer

IPod Touch 2.0 Software update

Hi i was wondering if anyone could help me with a problem im having trying to get hold of the new software update for my iPod Touch.
Basically i click "check for update" when my iPod touch it either says the current software 1.4.1 is the current software or it says the 2.0 software is available and so i click learn more to go to download the update and it just refreshes the ipod page or it says connecting to itunes store and ends up going back to the ipod page doing absolutely nothing and in the end im no further to downloading the 2.0 update
So is there a way i can download the update through options in the iTunes store or is there something wrong with iTunes and the update

you must have been gone for 10 hours or something
ever since 8 A.M EST, apple's server has literally been dead, with no backup plan. As of now, Apple is frantically trying to fix it so that iphone and ipod Touch users can get the iphone 2.0 software update.

Ipod Touch 3.0 Software Update finally worked!

A week ago (~27 June) an update to 3.0 hung. I bought, agreed to license, clicked 'OK' or something, but nothing happened, except my account was billed! A couple days later I viewed My Account, Purchases, clicked 'Problem' on the item '3.0 Update' or whatever. Next day my account had been credited my purchase price!
Wait a week, read some posts, pray, hope for better. Night of 7-July, tried purchase again. Approve license, etc., says may take 30 minutes or more on BroadBand, wait 45 minutes. Came back, checked synced iPod Touch, Settings, About, shows version 3.0! Check contacts, rotate Touch, see Landscape keyboard! Tried a Copy (as Cut & Paste), seemed to work!
Yeah! I guess Apple fixed something, or I got lucky this time!

Hello
I have an itouch 1st gen and went to try and update the software to the latest 3.0 update. I purchased the software and then itunes tried to update my itouch with the latest software.
By doing so this has caused my itouch to freeze and go into recovery mode which I havent been able to get out of after trying all that article ts1275 asked me to do. i.e reinstall itunes / try different pc / try different usb port / try to reboot itouch etc etc
I resorted to contacting tech support which was of no help as I already tried all that I could to get my itouch out of recovery mode. The other problem is that as I brought my itouch way back in 2007 my warranty is out of date and that means basically there not willing to do much to help. I explained that it was the software update that caused my itouch to crash and prior to the update it was working fine. There reply is that the software would not put my itouch in recovery mode and that it must be a hardware problem.
End result after spending 1hr 30mins on the phone is that I have booked in with tech support at an apple store and if found to be a hardware issue then I would have to pay £116 for an out of warranty replacement.
I think this is a joke and its to easy to put the blame on hardware issue when the device was working fine prior to software update.
Ps I would be happy to hear if anyone else has had the same problem so we can build a case against Apple for causing the problem

Ipod touch 3.1 software update capacity

Hi, does anyone know how much memory does the 3.1 update use?

Can anyone please help? I only have an 8gb ipod touch with about 2gb left. I want to update so I can access more apps, but I'm worried it's going to take up all the memory I have left.

IPod Touch - Reinstall January Software Update

NOTE TO APPLE: Your site is terrible; it's slow and hard to navigate. Also, it is nearly impossible to contact anyone from apple; you have so many webpages that are supposed to help people who are having problems. When really they just deter users from speaking to an actual representative and leaving your customers to fend for themselves, annoyed and angered.
ANYWAY
My problem is this, in March I purchased the January Software Update for my iPod touch. Then for whatever reason, my iPod stopped showing up in iTunes. I was told the only reason to resolve this would be to hard reset my iPod, I did this (it didn't work but the problem was eventually solved)
Now I am faced with the issue of getting the January Software Update back onto my iPod without paying for it again. The purchase shows up in your records, and the file is no longer on my computer.
I purchased it on 03/07/08 at 9:33 PM and I have both the order number and the invoice number for this purchase.
How do I get the software update onto my iPod without paying for it again?

Hi,
Note to ...MITCHELL... thanks for your help.
Zach,
Your upgrade should reinstall if you auto resynch i.e. turn off "manually manage music and video" and synch. I think you have to be logged in to iTunes with your original Apple I.D. also.
If not check to see you have the correct files in the right places, see this post from [A A P L|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6646337&#6646337]
If you don't have the file anymore through OS reinstallation etc. then I believe you can notify Apple through a link on your iTunes purchase page. This answer has been posted elsewhere.
Good luck,
Dud.

My Ipad 2 cant find my HP3050A j661b airprint printer although the printer is connected to the same wireless network and software updates are current on all and my other laptops also work properly with this printer.further more it used to work with my IPAD2 before when I used the old wireless router but now I changed it to HAUWEI HG231f but I set everything in the same way it was. Thanks in advance.

When you change to the new router, did you re-run the CD to re-set the new SSID and password to the printer.
Otherwise your iPad will not be able "talk" to your printer.

Can iPad connect with iPod touch?

I am interested in buying the iPad 2 and I also have an iPod tough 64g. My iPod has tons of movies and music on it. Can I import or view my movies an music on the iPad. Like airplay or something? Or by connecting it with the camera adapter?

Itunes is capable of syncing both of your iOS devices. Just make sure that everything that is on your iPod is in iTunes on your computer and iTunes can put as much of it as you want on the iPad.

Problem with iPod touch 3.1.3 update

Hello
Yesterday I decided to update my *1st gen* iTouch from 3.1.2 to 3.1.3, all went well until the update was complete and iTunes informed me that my iPod is restarting in a bit.
Apparently something went wrong with the update that caused my iTouch to go into recovery mode, which I find odd since it didn't inform me of any problems while I was updating.
Now whenever I connect my iTouch it informs me that it is still in recovery mode and needs to be restored, I complied but as the restore was "complete" I get an error message 6. I tried probably 4-5 more times and then went on to the Apple site to find some answers, one suggested I turn off my antivirus and firewall, which I did. Didn't help. Then I tried another USB cable, didn't help. Then I tried to use an external USB hub, didn't work.
Finally after a few random tries it informed me that the restore was a success, and my iPod is restarting in a few moments, my joy was short-lived however as iTunes once again informed me that my iPod is still in recovery mode.
Frustrated, I scoured a few forums and found this place: http://www.felixbruns.de/iPod/firmware/ and proceeded to download software version 3.1.2. I shift clicked on restore and selected the older version with no avail. It still gives me the occasional "error 6" or the message that my restoration was a "success".
What should I do? this is definitely not a hardware issue since my problem began with the update, I should note that my iTunes version was not the newest one when the initial update was performed (if memory serves me right it was one version older than the current one), could this be the main culprit? I did download and install the newest iTunes version after I got the first error message though.
If my iTouch is beyond repair I just have to ask, how can Apple release such a buggy update? It'll be real nice to churn out 400€ for another iPod just because of faulted software on your part.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Pho3nix
I had exactly the same problem you had and spent hours looking through forums, you tube operating manuals even tried to jailbreak my ipod - but no success!
Eventually got it working though.
Here's what I did
On one forum it said try and try and try again to restore using a different usb port - they reccommended the back port on my laptop but it preffered to front one on my laptop.
On your I tunes devices section check what version it is - if it is up to date version 3.1.3 do the following
When it gets to the point in the in the restore ( which took about 4 tries for me) it asks you from which sync you want to restore to click "make this a new IPOD"
It completely restarts your IPOD but this time with the update.
All you then have to do is sync your songs etc and back to it brilliant best.
If the software is not up to date then keep restoring it until it says the same " which sync do you want to restore to?" keep trying on your last sync (again this took about 4 tries until it completed restore - usually crashed near end of restore)
Once this is done your IPOD will still have the apple logo - then restore again and "make this a new IPOD"
Hope this works for you!
