New iPod Chargers with older generation iPods

Hi,
I have an older generation iPod (20GB, no click wheel) and recently lost my charger (one that had a firewire port on the charger itself).
I went bought a new USB iPod charger and when I connect a USB cable with docking port to the charger and iPod (respectively), my iPod does not charge.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks!

If you have a 3rd gen iPod (the one with 4 buttons underneath the screen), then it does not charge via USB only firewire.
You need to get the charger exchanged.
Check here for confirmation on which iPod you have..

Since upgrading ical on mac can't sync calanders with older generation touch using 3.1.3os now calander on touch generates blank screen...any ideas

since upgrading ical on mac for .me account can't sync calanders with older generation itouch using 3.1.3os now calander on itouch generates blank screen...any ideas

Thank you for suggesting the link. it seems the problem was even simpler than I had thought had I read the FAQ link of the iCal/me upgrade notification ... Apple's latest version of iCal simply does not support versions of the iOS earlier than 4.2. The device I had been using was a first generation touch... Still working ... with out error in good condition despite having been to hades and back... But no longer supported by the newer versions of the iOS and the .ME ical application...
Another beautiful but orphaned device:-(. Like the absence of support for "ancient" apple operating systems, including their more interesting applications, it is simply no longer supported...one must move on to purchase new hardware and it's associated software to keep up with the evolving cloud os. The blank screen ical problem, on the touch, was corrected by performing the standard start up reboot procedure...with no loss of data and a return of the screen interface in the end. Again another example of the really outstanding past efforts to make robust system products. I will try to put my old touch to good use in its new " retirement" status ...use it some where else, like my original 128k Mac ( that still works as well!). Guess it is time to purchase a newer tool ;-)
Thanks again for taking the time to make the effort to assist

Help - lost motherboard, auto save saved older script, newer script actually with older date.

Adobe story team:
I had a best script to date, on an older hard drive and the motherboard failed on my HP tower. The sony laptop has a more recent dated script, but not the one I want. How do I replace an "older" date script, one that I want for a newer script. I don't want the newer script, I want the older one that is on a "pulled" hard drive again, from a tower that failed.
Do I save the older file on an offline, using a new ID, new password, forever changed or what can I do?
I need a fairly quick response, timing is critical. HP tower is the problem.
drgm
thanks

You have it half right. the issue is the HP tower I had failed. The mother board failed, I pulled the hard drive which is windows 7, I have a sony laptop which is in 32 bit vista, I am not sure if the different versions will be an issue. can i take a file off the pulled hard drive and put it somewhere in a directory even with the different windows vista vs windows 7 if so which file should i copy on the pulled hard drive and where do i put it on the laptop, directory plus I will go back on online save it in the clouds and reformat the laptop and go to windows 7 then go back to adobe story and go from there. thank you for your quick attention in this matter.
Respectfully,

Hi
I am not sure if I understand your problem correctly, but as far as I can make out you had been working on a script and then it got autosaved and now you wish to go back to the "older" script.
In order to do so you may visit your document's history through the View->History option. There you will see older versions of your document (if you had not turned off autoversioning). You may then open an older version of the document from the panel by double clicking on it. Once on an older version you will get to see the "Make Latest" option. Clicking on that will make the "older" state of your document your "current" state and then you may proceed to edit the document as usual.
I hope this is helpful to your situation. In case you face any issues in following the mentioned steps do let us know.
Thanks

AirPlay Compatible with older generation AirPort Express?

Hi everyone,
We are building a new flat and I am planning on installing ceiling speakers into each of the rooms. I will have the speakers connected into Airport Express units so that I can stream audio to different rooms.
Question, the older generation (2004/2005, M9470LL/A) model Airport Express was compatible with AirTunes. Is it also compatible with streaming audio through AirPlay? Or does this ONLY work with the new AirPort Express (802.11n model)?
I am running a 802.11g (and ethernet) network currently so don't require the new 802.11n function of the new AirPort Express, would prefer to go with the cheaper option and buy the older generation if it is compatible with AirPlay.
Thanks!

AirPlay requires that the AirPort Express Base Station run 7.4.2 or later firmware. In turn, this version of firmware can only run on the 802.11n base stations ... so, the older 802.11g Express will not fully support AirPlay.

New iTunes syncing with older click wheel iPod

I have an older 20 GB 1st gen. click wheel iPod. I'm wondering if I will have syncing problems upgrading to iTunes 10.2.2. Has anyone done this without problem? Please let me know.

Can I use the new versions of iTunes on an old iPod
Yes. I have iTunes 9.0.x working just fine with an iPod that's a generation older than yours.

Is newer iSync compatible with fifth generation iPod?

I just upgraded from Panther to Snow Leopard and I can't figure out to get iSync to work my 5th gen iPod. iSync doesn't automatically open when I connect the iPod (though it did before), and when I launch iSync and try to add a device, it wants to open Bluetooth. I only use iSync to sync my calendar and contacts from iCal, but I would like to keep this capability. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong??

Those functions are now part of iTunes. Click here for more information.

Charging new i-Touch with older AC adapter

I recently purchased a new Touch and wondered if I could use the AC-usb adapter that came with my 2nd gen (old school) iPod to allow my plugging the Touch into the wall instead of always into the computer. Since both iPods use usb cables, will there be any problems with using the same wall adapter and changing cables accordingly?

The Apple charger should work, however there are known 3rd party examples that do not. For example, I had a Sonnet AC-to-USB charger that worked on my iPod 5Gen Video, but failed on my IPT 1stGen, which Sonnet admitted to, and subsequently re-engineered their product.
I now use a newer Apple charger and the same cable for both iPods.

Using new i-pod with older i-book

I just purchased a 3G I-pod and I am trying to load it up with music. My older i-book will only hold about 900 songs. What are my options here? Can I increase the memory on my i-book? Is it possible to load songs onto my i-pod from another computer without losing the songs that are already on there?
Please help!

You'll need to set up the iPod to manually update.
With the iPod connected, open iTunes.
Select Edit-->Preferences
Choose iPod
Select "manually manage songs and playlists"
Storing the only copy of your music on your iPod is definitely NOT a very secure thing. A common fix for iPod issues is to Restore, which erases all data on the iPod.
You should consider picking up an external drive for the iBook.
In answer to your other question, yes, you can load music from another computer, but you will need to have the iPod in Manual Update mode.

Sata III hard drive cable compatible with older generation of macbook pro

Would my macbook ( 17 in mid 2009 ) be compatible with a new hard drive cable ( sata III ) ? I upgraded my hard drive to Samsung Pro 840 and wanted to upgrade my sata II cable to a sata III for faster read and write. Is this possible?

Dave The Newbie,
replacing the cable will not increase the interface speed, just as putting racing slicks on a minivan won’t make it a dragster. I have the same model SSD in my Mid 2010 MacBook Pro, and my MacBook Pro’s SATA interface is limited to SATA II, just like yours. Unless you’re planning on mainly running disk-bound apps, it’s not something that you’ll need to worry about — just enjoy the SSD as is.

How to open newer version file with older version software?

Recently I downgraded my mac due to Maverick failed to support gdb(I really hate that lldb stuff). And it turned out that the file I used to edit in newer version of mac failed to open. It says I need to update my software to newer version. The thing is, I really don't want to use Maverick now until it resupport gdb. So are there any other ways to open those files?

HI,
The UnRarX application should be accessible from your Dock after installing the software. The application icon looks like this:
"How to extract a rar archive?"
1. Launch UnRarX.
2. Drag rar archive into the UnRarX window.
3. Extraction begins automatically.

How does one sync the new time capsule with the old airport extreme and airport express in order to extend range?

How does one sync the new time capsule with the old airport extreme and airport express in order to extend range?

Thanks for the additional information.
Unfortunately, the AirPort Utility application in the Lion and Mountain Lion operating systems, which is used to configure the new Time Capsule does not support the older versions of the products that you have.
Even if it did, there are no settings on the older AirPorts to "Extend a wireless network", so they are not compatible with the new Time Capsule if you intend to extend the network only using wireless connections.
If you have the ability to connect each AirPort to the Time Capsule using a permanent wired Ethernet cable connection, it might be possible to use a complicated workaround to install an older version of AirPort Utility to configure the older AirPorts to work with the new Time Capsule.
If you have another Mac there that is using the Leopard or Snow Leoapard operating system, things would likely be simpler. I have not done this type of procedure to mix a new Time Capsule with older AirPorts, so I would not be able to say whether this would work or not.

Older generation ipod touch and want to move it's acct from one computer to new computer and can't figure out how?

We are transferring all our iTunes songs to a new computer do to space issues on old one. My daughter's ipod touch is an older generation and she cannot connect to the new computer without wiping out her current itunes songs and rebuilding them on her ipod. She doesn't want to do that do to time constraints. Does anyone know how to get around this ? Thank you.

This is true. Ipod touch will sync with one and only one computer at a time. If you sync to another it will indeed erase the current content and replace with content from the new computer.

HT204053 I have a small older iPod with one email address and passcode, & I have created an "Apple ID" yesterday with a different email address & different password, for my new iPOD Touch5: Does that ID & pw now apply to my iTunes?

Does creating a new Apple ID with user name, email and password ( for my new iPod Touch 5 CHANGE and my existing iTunes account username and pw ?
Thanks....Gary

Your new iPod Touch will use what ever ID you specify in Settings>iTunes & App Stores when you purchase apps and media from the iTunes and App stores, regardless of the ID you may have been using before on your older device.

Why do the new earphones not work with 1st Generation iPod touch?

Does the 1st generation iPod touch not "recognise" [recognize if you are American] these functions? I am talking about the microphone and the button on the new earphones.

Ray2104 wrote:
Then why don't apple make ear phones with microphone which the 1st gen itouch will recognised...
Because the Touch is primarily a music player, that is what I purchased and I'm quite satisfied with it as it is.
I'm so fed up of the way Apple Market...
What are their plans for their consumers... to
to keep buying new Ipods?!?!?!
Err...Yes! Welcome to the real world.
3G Iphone was released shortly after the Iphone...
why couldnt they make us wait longer...and get the 3G
You still don't understand this commercial world do you?
same with Ipod Touch... yes i Understand new Gen ipods...would have better features...
Let's all wait a hundred years when they bring out the the brain implants...
But hey wats up with making us fall with Apple...we like the designs, the features...but why then bring in new ones that apple know will not let our old ipods adapt to it.
You like the design, you buy it, enjoy what you have and don't get so jealous.
Sick of Apple... they do it on purpose... I guarantee...
No way?!
the new Iphone to realease next year....would be Iphone 8.0 mega pixels camera video recording....either way...they would make their customers regret for buying their old Iphones and Ipods...
If so, then I might buy one, but then I wouldn't moan if a better one was released six months later.
4 now, do something about the new ear head phones....cos apart of app store and applications...we want to be ablt to use microphones...to communicate on social networking...and voice memos...
This maybe because the hardware is simply incompatible, they cannot cover every eventuality, had they done so the Touch would have been more expensive and I would not have bought one.
Technology moves on, fact. I you don't feel Apple are playing fair then just avoid their products, that'll learn 'em.
By the way, if you want Apple to hear your thoughts go here - [Feedback|http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html]
They do not officially monitor this board.
