What my iPod Touch (64gb, Software ver. 3.1) WILL NOT do...

I know the new Touch is awesome and totally different to my faithful old iPod Classic but two things I am really missing regarding functionality are;
1) Resume - if you exit the music player and go back into music later it does not recall the last album/track you were playing making returning a pain in the proverbial.
2) Hard Drive Access - there is no longer the ability to use the Touch as an external hard drive to your PC / Mac.
Please correct me if I am wrong, otherwise consider these as potential inclusions in future upgrades.

Hi,
I only have a 1st gen touch with 3.11 but...
1. Works for me. I pause, press home, go to another app etc. When I return to the music player I am back where I left off.
If I turn off/turn on then, as I would expect, the track place is lost.
2. The touch has never been available to use as an external hard drive in the normal manner, although it can be accessed using third party apps, "Air Sharing" or "Data Case" for example.
Regards,
Dud.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.
    If you previously synced to the computer then you may be able to recover use of the iPod without erasing the iPod by following the instructions here:

  • My Ipod touch ios version 6.1.3 will not allow me to connect to my wifi, Please help me!!

    My ipod touch ios version 6.1.3 will not allow me to connect to my wifi. I tried rebooting my wifi router, refreshing my ipod, resseting the networks and manually logging into my wifi. Sometimes it will go through for a brief moment, but the wifi connection will ultimately disconnect. Each time i try to connect to my wifi afterwards a small pop up will say "Unable to join the network". Please help. it's really annoying and frustrating.

    Thank you Carolyn Samit, but nothing is working.
    I've restored my ipod both to a backup and back to factory. I know the password is correct,
    the router is the newest version (and it's plugged in and on), my ipod is updated, i've turned my wifi settings on and off, i've turned the ipod off and on. No luck yet. I've been working on it for hours now. About ready to sleep on it...maybe some luck will find me tomorrow...
    Still in need of dire help.

  • I just got an 8GB iPod touch, I'm concerned that I will not have enought gigabytes for future music purchases. Is it possible to upgrade to a 32GB without having to pay $300 for a new iPod?

    I just got an 8GB iPod touch, I'm concerned that I will not have enough gigabytes for future music purchases, Is it possible to upgrade to a 32GB without having to pay $300 for a new iPod?

    Well, obviously you can't walk into the apple store and get them to upgrade your iPod for you for FREE when the 32GB costs at least a 100$ more.
    Just stick with the 8GB, don't download rubbish apps.

    Try restoring the iPod via iTunes on your computer.  If iTunes does not see the iPod:
    - place the iPod in recovery mode.  See:

  • Cannot restore my iPod touch 3g "Software for this iPhone is not currently"

    Hello,
    II have a big problem, I cannot restore my iPod touch.
    I cannot get anything to show on the screen, it seems stuck in DFU mode. When I connect it to my pc, iTunes show this message "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes".
    "Check for update" is grayed. Capacity/serial/Software show N/A.
    iTunes detects it as an iPhone but it's an iPod touch.
    I tried 2 different computers.
    I tried to download firmware and shift restore them, tried many, none work, telling it is not compatible.
    When I click restore simply, it show this message "Software for this iPhone is not currently available".
    I tried different ipod cable too, no luck.
    The only way I can see something on the screen is with greenpoison (note that before this, I never tried nor wanted to jailbreak, but I tried a lot of things since 2 days including this, but no luck), so with green poison, I can get the iTunes + cable logo on the screen, but it won't restore either.
    my iPod is just 1 year old, and 32gb, I'm rly frustrated and sad about all this :S, I tried lot of things, searched a lot, nothing work.
    This happened when I came back from the gym, in my car, the iPod would not turn on, I tried again at home, and after some home/power, it turned on, I took a shower and when I came back, it was the same problem but since, it never turned on again.
    Any help would be rly appreciated, thanks.

    If its stuck in DFU mode, just hold the Power/Sleep button and the Home button until the device resets. If your unable to access the springboard, you might need to RECOVER your iPod Touch using the Recovery method, not DFU mode.

    The iPhone and iPod Touch is very similar, except the iPod Touch doesn't have phone capabilities.

    If you never Jailbroken, then why is greenpois0n installed? Did you buy this from a previous owner?

  • IPod touch found in iTunes but it will not sync. Please help.

    I got a new (factory refurbished) 32gb 4th gen Touch to replace my 1st gen. iTunes finds it but will not sync to it. I've tried to reset (restore) the device as well as the PC its connecting to with no different results. Even did a Windows system restore to before the iTunes update (but it did not revert to older version of iTunes) and the outcome was still that the device will not sync. Both have the newest versions of software. The Apply button stays grey once changes are made (revert is enabled) and the sync option is grey in the summary screen and in the file drop down menu. I've ran the sync and connection diagnostic a half dozen times and every time it says the device is connected and able to sync. I've enabled all device helpers with iTunes and disabled both my firewall and my antivirus but still nothing works.

    Yes that is what I meant. I restored or reset to factory setting/new iPod. It was already that way from the factory refurbish but I did try it. In fact I tried doing it both from the device itself and via iTunes, multiple times. No luck. Any other suggestions would be most welcome though, as I certainly may have overlooked something simple and or obvious to those more knowledgeable such are yourself.
    Further info: I had a problem sync'ing my 1st gen about 2 weeks ago but it resolved when I disabled my antivirus and firewalls. Not sure if that really had any impact on the whole process but it was doing something very simular to this only then it was that it wouldn't detect the device. So I rebooted my PC and disabled my virus protection and firewalls and then plugged in the device and iTunes found it and sync'ed to it. Tried all that this time and no luck. I wanted to make sure all my apps and songs were on my PC so that when I got my new 4th gen I could get them all over to that (easily I had hoped). After that sync finally worked I updated to newest version of iTunes. Now with the new 4th gen it detects it fine but no sync.
    Very frustrated and any help will be much appreciated!

  • Ipod touch stuck in recovery mode and will not restore. error code 3194

    Hi @rchangel - Thanks for the ideas...
    Yes - it won't let you install the 32 bit version on a 64 bit machine.
    I've had a cursory look at the SP1 release notes, and couldn't spot anything vital - what critical stuff do you know of in SP1?
    I don't want to have to go through all the pain of setting up VM's, reinstalling iTunes, getting all my album art back in etc. (though I could, as I do have Win7 pro). I've also heard that running iTunes in Windows 7 compatibility mode might help. Can anyone confirm whether that actually works?
    I think it's in Apple's gift to fix this issue, given that they say that they support Windows 7. So far I've had no feedback from a mail I sent to Apple, and the number of users reporting this problem keeps going up and up.
    I want Apple to recognise that there is a problem, and then I want them to fix it.
