My iPod Touch 3Gen keeps saying I need to restore it. I have 7 times, and everytime it dies, I have to do it again. Also, last time I restored it, it wouldn't connect to my house's wifi, I reset it and it only worked for a minute. It worked fine before, then all of a sudden this stuff happened. It is a "refreshed" one. I broke my old one, but since I had a warranty I got a "refreshed" one. In the box they gave me a number to call if anything happened, but my brother threw it away. Do you think I could conact them, and if I can, does anyone know if the number on the card is the # here on the website?
If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

I did an update on my ipod touch, now it says it is in restore mode. i don't want to lose my info, but my ipod won't do anything now. thanks itunes; it was working fine until i did the update you said i needed. what do i do now??????
No one here said anything about an update or your device needing it.
FYI, you are not addressing Apple here, we are all users like yourself.
If the device is in recovery mode, the only option is to restore it. All data on the device is gone. This should not be an issue if the device has been used as designed and regularly synced/backed up. -

System Requirements

When I try to update my iPod touch, a message saying there isn't enough space on my computer appears and all media on my iPod will be lost, should I proceed with the update?
My iTunes Library is on my computer, I have done a backup manually, and all of my music is on an external hard drive (as well as my iTunes library).Thanks a lot Recycle bin is empty, I will move some files from the C drive to an external hard drive, then do the update, and then move the files back. Any files you recommend not moving to the external hard drive at all?

Last weekend I was able to download an earlier version of Snapchat from iTunes without any problems.
I now won't let me download Snapchat at all, saying it needs IOS 7.
Why is it doing this and how can I download an earlier version of Snapchat onto my iPod again?
I don't understand why this week it has started saying I need IOS 7, without giving me the option to download an earlier version.
Many ThanksTry:
Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.
However, sometimes a previous version is not available. -
Itunes still is not working correctly. There was a software update that i received yesterday and i figured it would fix the problem with itunes not responding, but it didn't. It's still doing the same thing. I'm getting kinda annoyed cause i use itunes as my main music player so please help me fix this software issue thanks!
Hi Batman1981,
It sounds like you may be describing an issue where a program that monitors the Winsock protocol for Windows is conflicting with iTunes and it's related components. Take a look at the article linked below, it provides suggestions that may resolve the issue.
Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4123
You may notice the following symptoms on your Windows PC after installing the iCloud Control Panel, iTunes 10.5 or later, or Safari 5.1 or later:
iTunes is slow to respond.
Windows is slow to respond.
iTunes stops responding when backing up or syncing with an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.

Itunes keeps saying I need to restore to factory settings
I had been using my car stereo ipod usb connection to listen to music from my phone. The last time I used it, it said I had no music. So i turned my phone off and it never turned back on, it was stuck on the apple logo, i tried everything, eventually my phones battery drained. so i looked up how to restore my phone and it said to hold the home button down and plug into itunes and it would begin a complete restore, which it did. i was able to restore my last backup. well today i wanted to download some music and when i plugged in my iphone to itunes it said, i cant remember word for word but basically it was telling me i needed to restore my phone to factory settings. so i figured well maybe it really didnt work last time so i went ahead and did it again. everything went back to factory settings, and when i went to sync my phone i get an error saying something it couldnt sync with this iphone and something about a file and not a folder can be found. so i disconnected my phone and reconnected and again the first thing that pops up is that i need to restore my phone. im so frustrated i dont know what to do! did i kill my phone?!?
To restore your iDevice, you have two options.
1. Plug into iTunes and select your device and click restore.
2. On your iPhone, go to Settings>General>Reset, and click which one you would like to use.
If your device is locked up and you can't get into it,
1. Open iTunes
2. Power Down your Device
3 hold down your home button and plug in the device to the computer at the same time
4. Keep holding until your device shows the Plug into iTunes image.
5. On iTunes, click restore
Wait for the device to restore to factory settings and your done! -
Honestly i really wanna like apple but i keep having these horrible seemly unfixable problems. i have a life and rely on my phone for social activties, school work, my job and relationships so i need it to work 95% of the time but im always let down...
Make the time and take it to the Apple Store. Make an appointment first. Or you can call AppleCare and go for a mail in replacement.

Ipod touch 4 keeps freezing/doesn't show wi-fi/doesn't play music and videos
I was just gonna play on my ipod touch 4g,and then when i tap on the app,it crashes the game and freezes.It was perfectly fine yesterday though.And when i restart the syetem and try to do something it freezes again,or if i tap the home button it freezes.It also doesn't show the wi-fi bar and i have wi-fi on and have a router.it also doesn't play music or videos and the sound works.Do you think i should get something new?
Try:
- 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.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

My IPod it telling me to restore factory settings. I know this will cause me to lose all of the music on it so far. How can I get the music off of it before I restore the settings? I really do not want to lose thousands of songs.
What is telling you that and what is the wording?
Can you make a backup via iTunes:
iOS: How to back up
Can you transfer iTunes purchases by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
If not then there is nothing you can do except restore the iPod and thus erase the iPod.
