Errors 3000-3999 (3004, 3013, 3014, 3018, 3164, 3194, and so on): Error codes in the 3000 range generally mean that iTunes cannot contact the update server (gs.apple.com) on ports 80 or 443.
Update to the latest version of iTunes.
Verify the computer's date and time are accurate.
Check that your security or firewall software is not interfering with ports 80 or 443, or with the server gs.apple.com.
Follow Troubleshooting security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
An entry in your hosts file may be redirecting requests to gs.apple.com (see "Unable to contact the iOS software update server gs.apple.com" above).
Internet proxy settings can cause this issue. If you are using a proxy, try without using one.

    What iOS do you have on the iPod?
    Did it every connect to your computer with that iOS?
    The latest iOD for the 2G is 4.2.1 and that required a Mac with 10.5.8 or later.
    Have you tried:
    - another USB port and cable

  • Why does the IPOD Touch bluetooth refuse the connection to my cellphone and declare it "unsupported"?

    I'm trying to transfer a picture from a Motorola Razr Cellphone via Bluetooth.  The cellphone discovers and connects to the IPOD Touch.  The IPOD touch discovers the cellphone but refuses to pair and declares the cellphon an "unsupported device".  The passkeys are equal so what is the deal?  Incompatiable versions of Bluetooth?

    It isn't designed to work like that.  See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3647 for supported bluetooth profiles

    what should i do now?!, will the apple specialist take it and help me fix it?????

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - 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.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network      
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • My ipod touch 4th gen froze! blank white screen and doesn't respond when turned off, or connected to my laptop

    my ipod touch 4th gen froze! only blank white screen and doesn't respond when turned off or connected to my laptop!

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

  • IPod Touch 5th Gen stuck in recovery mode loop and unable to restore

    Hello,
    I attempted to download and update my iPod to IOS 8 wirelessly on the release date Sept. 17.  After a few hours of downloading, I plugged my iPod into its charger to allow for the installation to complete.  I went out for a few hours that evening and returned to find my iPod touch with the recovery mode image (cord hooking up to iTunes).  At first i tried to kick it out of recovery mode by using some 3rd party applications.  Every time that happened, it would reset my iPod only to return to the previous image (cord hooking up to iTunes).  After this, I gave up trying to just kick it out of recovery mode and just restore it using iTunes.  For the last 3 days, I have continuously  attempted to restore my iPod but i am never able to successfully download the software.  I have received multiple errors regarding "failure to connect to update serves" or "session has timed out".  Most of the time,I ca't even get to the Terms and Agreements popup.  The window simply says "attempting to connect to update server."  In the extremely rare case that I get passed the terms and agreements pop up and begin the download,  the approximate wait time always exceeds 80 hours, and then an error is detected shortly after stating the  "failure to connect to update serves" and "session has timed out" errors.
    I would simply like to be able to restore my device and make it usable so it is not a metal and glass "brick".  Any help in this matter is much appreciated. Thanks.

    Any Help is appreciated!

  • IPod touch 4th generation stuck in recovery, black screen and failure notice "IPod couldn't be recovered due to an unkown failure (-1).

    Hi there,
    I bought an IPod touch 3 weeks ago and it seems pretty stupid as I had so much trouble with it.
    First all the music wasn't synchronized properly. Most of the songs have been stucked in the middle (although the time moved on properly) and jumped to different times. I restored and recovered everything twice and everytime I plugged my IPod in my computer it seemed to worked, but after synchronising the first time the second time my ITunes recognized the Ipod but I couldn't see the files or even synchronise again. I could finally download all new updates (for the IPod and the new Itunes) as requested. ITunes  reset the IPod but couldn't recover it properly.My Ipod has a black screen and nothing works. Apparently my Ipod is in a maintenance mode, but everytime I try to recover it (as requested) it works until I get the failure notice "unknown failure (-1), couldn't recover/restore. I spend the whole day checking the Internet for a solution and trying to update everything without success so I really appreciate an answer. I am travelling through central america right now and unfortunately there are no apple stores around.
    Thanks
    Daniela
    P.S. Sorry, my failure notices are in german, so I tried to translate them and the situation as good as possible

    See if you can get it into DFU mode and then restore.

  • Ipod touch 2nd gen stuck on low battery screen and won't turn on, Ipod touch 2nd gen stuck on low battery screen and won't turn on

    My ipod touch was working fine until yesterday it just shut off with about half of charge left. I tried holding the power and home button but nothing. When I plug it into the charging wall outlet the low battery screen pops up and same goes for when I plug it into iTunes on my computer. I let it alone overnight to see if the battery would drain but same thing happened today. What should I do?

    I have never seen this answer before but here's what worked for me and I found it accidentally.
    I have an iPhone and an iPad and I only had 1 charger (my only Apple cord didn't work anymore so I had thrown it out and I thought maybe that was the problem, except my iphone charged fine with my pink cord) by my bedside, so I would just hook up the one that needed it the most before I went to bed.  Well one day I woke up to find that my iPad had a low battery, with the red battery picture. When I plugged it into the charger, it just kept recycling to the Apple logo and then the spinning wheel of death, and back again.
    I did some research and couldn't figure it out. People who thought it was a dead battery still had the same problem after they sent it in and got a new battery  My iPad is not jail broken and half the "solutions" were over my head. I have over 1300 apps on my iPad, not to mention thousands of pictures, that I was just feeling so bereft and sad that I might have lost everything.  So I just let my iPad sit, and drained the whole battery down to the nubbin.  It was 2-3 days without a charger that I just let it sit.
    Then I put it on the charger again and I noticed I still got the red battery symbol, but the red was a thinner slice. I went to work and left it on the charger all day. When I returned, one of my FB notifications came on and bam, there it was, my sign on screen or whatever it's called, where you slide the thingy across. And it was back!!!!!!
    So I was overjoyed.  I'd also had a problem syncing with a warning that it overloaded my USB port. It was a separate problem, but I was able to sync it after that, and my iPhone too, so I was ecstatic.
    Then the battery thing happened again about a week later.  I thought I had been diligent about keeping it charged but it went down after only a day off the charger.  Realized that I had FB and mail notifications notifying me in the startup screen, so that it was constantly turning itself on and off.  I have almost 5000 FB friends and 10 email accounts, so that was a lot of steady activity that I wasn't really aware of.  I have now turned off all notifications to every app, since they also come on my phone AND I bought a 2nd cord, a purple one, so now I'm set and don't expect to ever have that problem again.
    Hope this helps everyone who thought they had a brick.

  • Regarding a refurbished ipod Touch: Do they come with a new screen and/or battery?

    I am deciding if I should (to save money) order a refurbished 4th gen. ipod touch. I previously had a refurbished 2nd gen. touch and had no problems with it.
    If anyone can answer these 2 questions, I'd appreciate it...
    1. I know a refurbished ipod comes with a new outer shell...does that include a new screen or do I take a chance at getting a scratched up screen?
    2. Do they put a new battery in the refurbished ipods, or do I get a partially used battery causing me to have to replace it sooner?
    Both of these will come into play as I make my decision to buy one at the refurbed price or full price.
    Thanks!

    It depends on who you buy it from. If you buy it at a store you can usually ask to use it or which ios it has. If you get one that has iOS 6 you can update to iOS 7 anytime. If you get iOS 7 you cannot downgrade. So in the end, it depends on who you buy it from and if the store/company can tell you.

  • How do I fix an Ipod Touch 4G when it has a white screen and maybe water damage

    I jumped in a lake with my ipod in my pocket and stayed in there for about an hour and about a week and a half in the rice container, my Ipod Touch 4G has a white screen and i tried to restore it and reset it but nothing worked, please help me!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on

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