Unexpected on and off (itouch 3rd gen ISO 5.0.1)

unexpected on and off (itouch 3rd gen ISO 5.0.1)

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.  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."

  • Airport Express (2nd gen), Airport Extreme and Airport TimeCapule (3rd Gen) interoperability

    Airport Express (2nd gen), Airport Extreme and Airport TimeCapule (3rd Gen) interoperability
    When all configured to provide wireless the network (Wired/Wireless) become unstable and very slow. When I disable wireless on the Airport Express the problem disappears. The problem effects all endpoint clients (iPhones, iPads, Mac's and windows) Any ideas?
    I own the following
    Airport Express 802.11n (2nd gen)
    Airport Extreme 82.11ac
    Airport TimeCapule 802.11n (3rd Gen)
    Config
    Each of the Airport's WAN port is connected my AT&T Uverse modem
    Latest firmware on each device
    All use static IP's (192.168.1.x)
    Airport's are all configured to "Create a wireless network" with same network name, security and password.
    Wireless options are using Automatic for Radio's and Channels
    Router mode is "Off (Bridge Mode)"

    Don't do that. Decide which one of your AirPort Base Stations is to serve as your router. Connect that one, and no others, to the modem. Connect all the others to it, and configure them as bridges.

  • Itouch 3rd gen

    My itouch 3rd gen was working fine until i tried to lock the screen. The lock button stopped working so i reset in itunes. It would not restore to any backups so i restored as new ipod. Power button works again but when i start up, it gets to the lock screen, freezes, and the loading circle comes on. I have restored about 5 times, reset, and everything else mentioned on apple's troubleshooting guide. Any other suggestions besides taking it in?

  • Facetime on itouch 3rd gen

    Hi im wondering if there is going to be a facetime app for the itouch 3rd gen? that will be able to connect to a computer with a webcam!! something like the icam app. Do you think this will ever happen??

    I doubt it since the earlier iPod do not have a camera. The FaceTime Beta app for Intel Mac computers will not install if the computer does not have a camera.

  • How many apps on an itouch 3rd gen 32Go

    Hi ! any idea of the amount of apps which can be supported by an Itouch 3rd gen, 32 Go ? Thanks

    How many do you have now? There is a limit to the number of home pages you can have that will limit how many apps will be displayed, but that does not limit the ability to add more. It just means they will not be displayed. You can use the search function to locate them, however.
    I believe this is covered in the manual. IPod Touch user guide

  • We purchased infinity blade and when we try to sync it on our itouch 3rd gen it says not compatible for this ipod

    We purchased an app called infinity blade and when trying to sync it to our 3rd gen ipod touch a message pops up on computer the it is not compatible to this ipod?

    Let me guess; you bought an iPod Touch that was labeled as an iPod Touch 3rd gen 8 gigabyte. first off that doesn't exist, apple resold the 2nd gen 8gb when the 3rd gen came out, as it would be a cheaper option for people. the 2nd gen is severely slower than the 3rd gen, and so infinity blade can not run on it, as many current games cannot as they are too powerful and barley work on a 3rd gen already, playing choppily and they lag a ton. Check to make sure the app requirments in the side of iTunes store says your device can work. Many stores labeled the re-release or the 2nd gen, which included the then current update which would have cost money for older devices, as a 3rd gen for some reason, even though Apple did not. If you do not believe me, check on apple for the list of iPod's that exist, labeled "Which iPod do I have?" also, you can check to see if you can update to iOS 5.0.1, the current iOS version, which can only be put on 3rd gen iPod touches and above, without a hack, as there is no more that can be put on older devices, as the new features require a faster CPU and more RAM, again, not enough in a 2nd or lower.

  • HT5457 I want to upgrade my itouch 3rd gen to 4.3 ops any help on if and how I can do it

    A lot of apps I go to say need 4.3 ops system to run. Can I upgrade my Itouch to 4.3 or better and how?

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
