Hello Apple,
I have an iPod touch 3rd gen 64GB (A1318) and I wish to install apps like youtube and soundcloud from the app store. But most of the apps require iOS 6 or 7 for them to be installed into the iPod touch. So, how can update my iPod touch to iOS6 or 7. As the lasted update available is only iOS 5.1.1
Kindly help me to get the apps installed into my iPod touch.
Thanks.That iPod touch can't be updated past 5.1.1. If desired, click here and try following the instructions.

Help!!!! my ipod touch 3rd gen won't turn on. at first the problem was it kept shutting off whenever i went into an app, then i plugged it up to the computer to restore it from back up it was working then the ipod just shut off before it was restored help
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have an iPod Touch 3rd gen and while it is recognized by my laptop with Win 8.1, it won't sync with iTunes. It worked fine while my laptop had Win 8 but after the update, it quit syncing. Strange though, I downloaded an app directly to my iPod and when I connected it to my laptop again (for recharging if nothing else), iTunes updated itself by including the new app. I also tried syncing wirelessly. Also unsuccessful. I'm about ready to change to an alternate to iTunes if I can't get this situation fixed. Anyone else have this problem and/or a solution?

- When you restore does the appear that the iPod successfully goes through all the stages of restore?
If yes, try placing the iPod in Recovery mode and then restore.
Next try DFU Mode

ITunes saying cannot read and write on iPod Touch 3rd gen 64Gb
I just got an iPod Touch 64Gb and synched with my iTunes 9 on my MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard. Getting error message after about 6Gb into the synch saying that it cannot access read or write to the memory of the iPod.
Went already at the Apple Store to show and exchange the iPod... total surprise, my new iPod does the same. Do I have something wrong with my iTunes 9 (already reinstalled once)? My old IPod 80Gb with hard disk does all the synch without problem...
Any ideas?
ThanksFound the issue: 2 corrupted music files in my iTunes library. iTunes does not say much about files it cannot read. Just stops the synchronization but not tracking of error further than that!! If it happens, keep working in finding out which piece of music is being copied when the error occurs then try to read it. I downloaded a new version from my TC and all is right now!!

When my ipod touch (3rd gen) displays an white image, a whiter spot appears on the screen?
It only appears when displaying light images, and i have only just noticed it a few days ago. My ipod touch is running iOS5.0.1
If you have had this problem, please tell me how you fixed it.
It's not a dead pixel, it's just a small circle of pixels that seem to be a noticably different shade of white than the others.
My ipod is under 2 years old now, so the warranty is void.You can try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem:
- Reset. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: 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
- Restore to factry defaults/new iPod.
If you still have the problem then repair/replacement is required if you do not want to live with it. -
I cannot access my music on my ipod after the latest update, no idea why or what to do! Can anyone help?

My iPod touch 3rd gen is malfunctioning
Well first, my iPod touch 3rd gen would start turning off (not all the way, just so that you have to turn on the screen and swipe the lock screen) without me doing anything. It stopped that quickly though. Then the volume sign would start appearing on the screen without me ever touching the volume switch. And then whenever I tried turning it off, (just the screen again) it wouldn't turn off, and I'd just have to wait until it automatically went off. These weren't horribly big problems, but I wanted to get rid of them of course, so I turned my iPod off all the way, with holding the power button down. Now I can't turn it back on at all and I don't know what to do. I'd really appreciate help, I'm not super good with this stuff, 'specially this. thanks! <3

IPod Touch 3rd gen reboots: panic CRC ERR
My 14 year old daughter had an iPod Touch 3rd gen that, with less than a month to go on the warranty, the touchscreen stopped working. Took it in to the Apple store, where they tried to see if they could resuscitate it by upgrading iOS, reseting to factory defaults, and a couple other magic clicks they tried. All to no avail. They checked the liquid damage indicator, found no damage, and then agreed to replace the device. I walked out with a new (?) device and was happy.
A couple months later I overheard my daughter asking if she could have her mom's Touch. I asked why she wasn't using her Touch, and she told me that it has rebooted randomly since we got the replacement. Of course, I was incensed that she didn't say something sooner - like, before the warranty ran out. Knowing that the warrany had expired, I started to research the problem on Apple's forums and the Internet.
Most of the information I found seemed to indicate that certain versions of iOS seemed to incite these kinds of problems. So I went through several exercises to try upgrading, downgrading, restoring the device, DFU mode, etc. Still, the problems continued. I upgraded the device over the weeks and months, hoping to find the magic version that would stop this. I tried removing apps, not installing any apps at all, putting music on slowly instead of syncing large amounts of data, etc.
A day or two ago I installed iOS 5. It seemed like it was going to work fine, but still periodically it would crash - including during the upgrade process itself, during the restore after the upgrade, when running large apps, when running small apps, and even when not doing anything at all. In fact the reboots complicated the process such that I could no longer sync without an error, so I had to reinstall the OS again earlier today. I was at dinner tonight and looked over when something caught the corner of my eye - it had gone to the Apple boot screen all by itself, when it was simply sitting there not being used.
I found General -> About -> Diagnostics & Usage -> Diagnostic & Usage Data, and see eight files:
(4) files called 2011-10-15-xxxxxx.panic.plist (I assume xxxxxx is a time of day, since the latest one is from dinnertime)
(4) files called ResetCounter-2011-10-15-xxx (rest of file name is cut off, xxx is first three digits of above xxxxxx)
I opened them and they all look relatively similar (latest one shown):
panic.plist:

Now I'm no Apple genius, but CRC ERR to me means a memory problem (cyclic redundancy check, stored checksum of memory contents does not match calculated checksum of same). The fact that there is a file for each crash since I reinstalled iOS indicates to me that this device is panicking because of a memory problem.
I am generally happy with the Apple i* line - our family has an iPad, an iPad 2, an iPhone 3GS, an iPhone 4, 3 iPod 3rd Gens, and our daughter is on track to get an iPhone 4 for her birthday next month. What concerns me is that they have given me a refurbished device with a problem, and I am powerless to do anything about it? The flat rate repair cost for the device is $149, but I feel that they gave me a device that wasn't working to begin with.
Any advice on how to deal with Apple in a case like this? The device is, of course, not covered by warranty, and they want an unspecified amount of money for a single telephone incident, wherein I believe they will simply tell me/confirm that I have a hardware issue. I would like them to look in their records and see what the problem was with the original device they refurbished, because I suspect that they didn't find fault and simply repackaged it.
I am prepared to talk to them - I think I will go to the store, though, because there are scant few appointments available for someone to call me in the next week. I am even prepared to pay the money, if I thought I had a decent chance of getting some satisfaction in this. But after reading some other customers' experiences with AppleCare, I tend to believe that the tier-1 support people won't satisfy.
The device was easily $250 when I first bought it for her, and I feel somewhat cheated if they simply repackaged dead hardware. But it's my word against theirs at this point.
Again, simply looking for advice on how I might bring this to the attention of people who care and aren't just reading from a troubleshooting flowchart.
Thanks in advance for any advice or suggestions, including if anyone knows of a resolution that I haven't tried?My problem is exactly the same, and I have not found a solution. I have a 3rd generation iPod Touch with 32 GB, recently upgraded to iOS 5. My iPod reboots randomly, regardless of what it's being used for, and sometimes even when it's not being used. My "crash reports" in Settings -> General -> About -> Diagnostics & Usage -> Diagnostic & Usage Data directory are very similar:

Sync failed to start w/ iTunes 10.7, iPod Touch 3rd gen
Since upgrading to iTunes 10.7 on Windows 7x64, I have had trouble getting my iPod Touch (3rd gen, 5.1.1) to sync. I am getting the message "sync failed to start". This happens with either WiFi or USB connection to the device. I know the iPod WiFi is working because the Remote app shows my iTunes library, fetches email, etc.
After installing iTunes 10.7, when I connected via USB, Windows tried to search for and install new drivers. After a very long delay, I canceled the search and continued using the existing drivers. I'm not sure if this is related.I have resolved the problem by 'shutting down' my MacBook ('restarting' the computer was not sufficient to resolve it). While I was at it, I took the battery out briefly before rebooting – don't know if this made the difference, but I do know that Apple Tech Support have instructed me to remove the battery momentarily on previous occasions when resolving other issues with the computer. Anyway, either just shutting down (or shutting down + removing the battery) seems to have resolved the problem, as iTunes is once again recognising my iPod Touch and I'm able to sync again. Phew!
