So after updating my ipod touch 3rd gen to 4.3.1 i noticed a lag everytime i turn it back on. it stays on the lock screen for minutes sometimes hours. the screen is usually unresponsive the only things usually changing are the time and battery percentage.

so aafter upsating my touch to 4.3.1 i have noticed everytime i restart the ipod there is a huge lag at the lock screen. the screen only updates itself every three to five minutes only updating the time and battery status. i cannot do anything, usually it will stay like this for minutes sometimes hours. i have tried restoring it and thought updating will fix the problem but it hasn't yet. i currently have ios 4.3.3. recently i had a friend look into the ipod and he told me on a folder called damaged files he found this, 37c3ad com.apple.autowake.plist. how can i fix this?

Try a manual install following directions in link below.

Updated my iPod touch 3rd gen to 5.0.1 from 4.3.2 and now the screen my iPod won't work anymore.

Updated my iPod touch 3rd gen to 5.0.1 from 4.3.2 and now the screen my iPod won't work anymore. I restored it, I backed it up and I held the power and Home buttons for the reboot and still nothing. I've been looking to see if any one had the same problem and one guy did but they tOld him it was his hardware, but I don't think it was because my friend was able to get it working but it would stop working again like in 10min. So, has anyone had the same problem and can help? Please, I will greatly apretiate it. :)

why cant i update my ipod touch 3rd gen? it says that theres network problem and ask to check my network settings. help me please

Try disabling your computer's security software during the downloading and installation. I found that rebooting my router and modem helped too.

I have a Macpro Book and I just downloaded new software to my ipod touch(3rd gen). Now itunes does not recognize it nor will it turn on. I believe it just downloaded but did not update the software. What do I do?

You appear to have a second generation iPod touch, not a third, and those can't be updated past 4.2.1. Apple sold 8GB second generation models at the same time as the third generation ones.

After updating my iPod touch 3rd generation to IOS5 some default apps are not working (anymore)

Hi,
I updated my iPod touch 3g from IOS 4.x to IOS 5 last week and since then my iPod makes troublle!
First of all, during the update I did not see any Problems. After the update, I mean the step where the data will be restored to the iPod, I synchronized some APPS at the same time, maybe that was a big mistake. My iPod makes hard resets many times in a loop until it frozes.
So the only thing I could do here is pressing the home button and the power switch at the same time until it gets rebooted. The sync started again and it looked like everything runs fine.
As I tried to use iMessage first time I realised the first Problem: I am unable to loginto iMessage with my Apple ID. My Apple ID runs fine, I can by Apps and so on. I also enabled iCloud to see that my Apple ID is ok. But logging into iMessage I put in my Apple credentials and Password, click on next, wait 3 seconds and the screen flips back. So this feature is not working.
Next issue I see is that randomly my iPod hard resets itself. Even if I don't do anything with my iPod I can see that it resets itself, booting with the apple icon. This happens minimum three times a day... (Exception Type: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (SIGSEGV), Kern_INVALID_ADDRESSat 0x00000000)
Today I tried YouTube, an internal Application which I cannot reinstall. It's not working anymore, starting YouTube says: Unable to connect to YouTube!
I have no clue whats going on here because email and web is working fine.
In my eyes I would like to reset the whole device to a state before running IOS5 and I would try the update again. But my Question is how to reinstall IOS5?
If IOS5 will not run smoothly on my iPod, I would prefer to backref to iOS4x.
Is there anyone who could help me out here?
Thanks,
Daniel

Found the rootcause. The battery was damaged and unable to have enough power to keep the device alive. After changing the device problem is solved.

After updating my ipod touch 2nd gen, almost all my apps won't sync

My daughters each have an iPod touch 2nd generation, and after they both updated their iPod touches, they could no longer sync or install most of theie apps they'v ehad for years. What do we do now since they can no longer place apps on their ipod touches?

Many developers when they updated their apps to support iOS 5 and 6 dropped compatibility for iOS 4.2.1 and earlier.
Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.

Can't update my iPod touch 3rd gen

So I have my 3rd gen iPod touch and i have tried to update it several times with errors telling me that iTunes timed out or with the 3091 error code (i think its the 3091 its the highest error code with 3000) and i have redownloaded itunes rebooted my computer used a different computer and i cant get it to update/ or even restore is there another way to get it to restore? I don't care if all my stuff gets deleted id rather have a fresh start anyway. I am at ios 4.3.5 and wanted to update it up to the new ios 5

You have a 2G iPod. Apple only made 32 and 64 GB 3G iPods. When the 3G iPods were introduced, the 8GB 2G iPods were continued to be sold with the same updated iOS as the 3G ipods. It is a common error to think that users purchased a 8GB 3G ipod. Sorry.

Hi IIIaass,
Not. My iPod is a 3rd Gen 8GB. I have updated it until the 4.2.1, but my old iTunes (10.2.XXX) always said it was the current version of the iPod.
Now my brother has bought a 4th Gen iPod Touch and he has the 4.3.3. I have downloaded the last iTunes today (10.3.1.55) and it says the same.
I'm trying to restore it right now to see if that change.

I want to update my ipod touch 3rd gen to 4.3

I have looked at many video tutorials on how to update my ipod 3rd gen to ios 4.3 But when i click check for updates it say its fully updated but only with 4.2, i dont know why this is happening my ipod has 8gb of memory and i have installed itunes correctly.?

Unfortunately your iPod is really a 2nd generation unit and can not be upgraded beyond 4.2.1. Apple did not make an 8gB 3rd generation iPod Touch.

I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO HELP v.v

The iOS update made the iPod less tolerent of marginal/fake Lightning cables. All you can do is get a certified Lightning cable. I would get a genuine Apple cable.

After upgrading my iPod Touch (3rd Gen) to iOS 5 it restarts itself.

I've contacted Apple and they said me it's a hardware problem, but it just happened exactly after I've upgraded to iOS5. I've already tried to restore in many ways and it didnt't work. Any other idea?

Are you sure you have a 3 Gen iPod? If it is 8gb or 16 gb, it is a 2 gen. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353

This has worked for some others.
- 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.

Ipod touch 3rd Gen not fully starting up - constantly restarting with the apple logo screen

Hi,
First of all, I cannot get my ipod touch (3rd Gen) to start up so I cannot get model specifics and version numbers - though it is iOS 5.1.1
I have obviously tried to restart it by holding the power and home button for 10 secs but this has not done anything.
At the moment, the ipod switches on and I see the black screen with the white apple logo - this stays on for about 3 minutes, then I get the little spinning circle (but it isn't spinning) for a couple of minutes, before it powers off and does this again... repeatedly. It only stopped because the battery power ran out.
I have connected it to my computer with the latest version of itunes - it appears in the devices list but just has a spinning 'loading' icon and is grayed out. As my ipod restarts the cycle again as above, my computer makes the noise as if i just plugged it back in and the above happens again in itunes.
The problem began when I updated apps (through update apps in app store) and it froze - I turned the ipod off to restart it, and now this is happening.
Any help or advice extremely grateful... I can't even access it to get it restored which is a bit of a problem as I have work notes on it. (Obviously I don't know if notes are backed up on ipod backups through itunes?)
Many, many thanks in advance!
