I have a 4th generation 32gb ipod touch

I have a 4th generation 32gb ipod touch, the power ran out this morning and as i put it on charge, it shows a red battery and the ac power sign but will not turn on or charge. I have tried rebooting it, holding down the power button. Any advice?

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.

Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Trade in 1st Generation of Ipod Touch for new generation of Ipod Touch?

Is there a policy on trading in my Ipod I have now and having it upgraded to the new Ipod touch? I got it for Christmas 2007 and do they do a trade in when a new model comes out? Especially if the newer bigger model is cheaper than what I paid for mine.
Any responses would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Not to be rude but there are many other topics on this subject.
Sadly, Apple does not have any kind of upgrade system.

I have a 3rd Generation Ipod touch and it is updated to the 5.0.0 OS. However I just got another 3rd generation 32gb IPod Touch--it is exactly the same, but it will not update on any computer I have authorized. I have tried restoring it HELP!!

The Icloud on the newer i pod will not activate and itunes will not let me download my icloud songs on itunes that i bought on my other ipod how do I update the new ipod and add icloud so i can put my music on it???

What happens when you try to update/restore Erro message?
Is is a 2G iPod? They look the same.
The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

How do i know what generation my ipod touch is?

how do i figure out what generation my ipod touch it?

More accurately you can look on the back of your iPod Touch for one of these numbers.
Apple put one of these part numbers on the back of every iPod Touch.
iPod Touch 1st generation - A1213
iPod Touch 2nd generation - A1288
iPod Touch 3rd generation - A1318
iPod Touch 4th generation - A1367
Which generation do you have?

Can't decide between the 1st gen and 2nd gen 32GB iPod Touch, please help.

I would like to buy a 32GB iPod Touch, the problem is that i can't decide whether i should buy a 1st gen or 2nd gen.
Obviously 2nd gen is "better" but is it worth the extra $$$?
Best Buy has the 1st gen for $310 and the 2nd gen is $400, that's $90 difference.
Any advice would be appreciated.

that's $90 difference.
Actually, it's only $80 because the 1G touch will come with the old 1.x software and it cost $10 to upgrade to 2.x software.

I have a brand new ipod touch 32gb ipod touch. Upgraded to ios 7. open music app but there is no radio tab to select!!! All online help just says, "just select it". Can you help?

I have looked at the "More" part but again radio is not an option.
Can you help?

Just wait a bit. Turn it off, then back on.
I don't know why, but after the update it doesn't show up right away.
When it finally does, you will find a red icon on the bottom of the screen, on the left side.

WHY WONT MY 3RD GENERATION 8GB IPOD TOUCH UPGRADE TO 4.3.3 ?

I HAVE BEEN TRYING BUT ITUNES DOESNT SEEM TO SHOW THE MESSAGE THAT AN UPDATE IS AVALIABLE FOR YOUR IPOD TOUCH :S

There never were any 3rd-generation 8GB iPod touches sold, the erroneous information given out by some dealers notwithstanding. You have a 2nd-generation iPod touch as far as the hardware goes, so the last version of iOS your device will be able to run is iOS 4.2.1.

Error 8288 when upgrading my first gen Ipod Touch to IOS 3.1.

I am having some trouble trying to get IOS 3.1 on my first generation Ipod touch. I have the latest Itunes, I do not have any dvd burning software like Anydvd that can interfere, and I've tried it on two different computers with no avail. Any help is greatly appreciated.

msoviolist, I opened a ticket via their so called "Express Lane" support page, I assume it'll take a couple of emails before they decide to credit you for the download. I would suggest linking to these two threads in the correspondence, this is what I included in the message;

I've attached a couple of threads from the Apple support

Im glad you like the new iPod Touch. I also got the new iPod Touch 4G (32GB). It is a nice upgrade from the 2nd generation lacking some major features such as multitasking and home screen wallpaper.
Enjoy your magicial iPod Touch

How can you find out what generation your iPod touch is?

How can you find out what generation your iPod touch is?

Hi,
Here is help for the operating system:
If you are locked to iOS 3 then you have an iPod Touch 1st Gen.
If you are locked to iOS 4 then you have an iPod Touch 2nd Gen.
If you are locked to iOS 5 then you have an iPod Touch 3rd Gen.
If you are locked to iOS 6 then you have an iPod Touch 4th Gen.
If you can get iOS 7 and have an iPhone 5 sized screen [bigger] you have the current iPod Touch 5th Gen.
I assume since it says you have iOS 5.1.1 you have an iPod Touch 3rd Gen.
Also, you may want to sync it so iTunes can tell you or you can look at the model number on the back.
Hope this helped.

I like to upgrade from an 8G iPod Touch to 64G.

I like to upgrade from an 8G iPod Touch to 64G.
I have an older model of IPod touch from last year. So i think 3rd generation which works awesome.
What is the main difference between the 3rd and 4Generations of 64G.
Would i be best to save money and buy a refurbished 3rd generation one, all i want is more storage for more songs and have room for videos and movies.
Would like advice and suggestions. thanks

yThe 4G has a faster processor and better displa are the major differences but there are more. For more info see:

Why not look at a refurbished 4G iPod?

Difference between 2nd generation and 3rd generation 8Gb iPod touch

Hello,
I recently won a 2nd generation 8Gb iPod Touch (Part No. MB528LL/A) that I would like to sell. I want to be able to tell the buyer the differences between the 2nd generation model and the 3rd generation model. According to Wikipedia in regards to the 3rd generation model:
"The 8 GB version is a reissue of the 2nd generation iPod touch hardware, includes OS version 3.x, but does not include support for Voice Control or the remote earphones with microphone."
According to Wikipedia in regards to the 2nd generation model:
"iPhone OS 2.0 and App Store access standard. Bluetooth support added but not made active until iPhone OS 3.0, which requires an upgrade fee."
Does anyone know if these statements are true? Are there any other differences? Is the 2nd generation model more or less desirable than the 3rd generation?
Thanks in advance!

1st Gen. Ipod Touch does not see my wifi

Hello all, I have been struggling with this issue for a couple of hours and I am stuck. Any insight would be appreciated.
My 1st gen. Ipod touch no longer sees my wireless network. This is preventing me from connecting, obviously. The Ipod sees other wireless networks, such as my neighbors, but not mine. Other devices, such as my laptop and my printer both see and connect to the wireless network fine. I am at a loss for what to do next.
What I have tried:
Power cycling my Ipod.
Resetting network settings on my Ipod.
Resetting all settings on the Ipod.
Power cycling my wireless router.
Additional information:
I am running the latest Ipod and router firmware, so far as I can tell.
I recently bought a new router, which may be the source of the trouble. It is a standard Belkin 108.11b/g router. I haven't done anything fancy with the settings, other than to change the defauly SSID and set up wireless security.
My wireless router is set to broadcast an SSID.
My wireless router is set to use WPA/WPA2 encryption (though I don't think that should affect its visibility).
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

But if this is your old iPod, perhaps it is the battery. It may no longer be able to hold charge, that's what happens to old batteries.
Have you tried turning it on while it's connected to power? When you unplug the iPod from any power and try turning it on, look at the battery icon (if it's there). Is it full when it turns on and what level does it show just before it turns itself off again?
