iPod Touch help: Have my games been wiped out?

[SVX]

Hi,

Could someone please help me get my I-Pod set up, because I'm stuck.

I've plugged it in, but I'm stuck from there.


It's an 8GB I-Pod Touch (3rd gen).


Thanks in advance.

You're going to need to give us a lot more info if you want some help.

Get started with what? What are you stuck with? itunes? wifi? conversions?

I've plugged it in to the computer, but I'm stuck from there.

Then lets start from the beginning.

1. RTFM
2. You either have a disc with itunes on it or you can download it here
3. Pay special attention to this bit
4. Profit

If you've done all of those and you need something else, you'll need to be significantly more specific.

Hi,

I have downloaded I-tunes, now all I get is picture of USB with a I-tunes disc with a music symbol on it.

What do I do now?

Install iTunes.
Plug your iPod into your computer via the USB data cable.
Start up iTunes.
Add music to iTunes.
Click on your iPod in the left-hand panel.
Sync.
Done.

Need to go back to step 1. RTFM.

Says the link was damaged.

Install iTunes.
Plug your iPod into your computer via the USB data cable.
Start up iTunes.
Add music to iTunes.

How do I add music to I-tunes?

 

[Sharky.]

If you've created a new library (iTunes should've prompted you on first run), File > Add Folder to Library... > select your music folder (assuming you keep it all in one folder, a la Windows Media Player) and it should go through there, adding every .mp3/.aac it comes across.

BTW, TB's link works fine for me. Try http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_touch_3.0_User_Guide.pdf instead.

Thanks guys for all of your help, got it sorted now.

You should jailbreak that baby. iPod Touch comes into its own once jailbroken.

Can skin it whatever way you like, and even enable multitasking.

iPhone OS 4 is going to add these features anyway.

Is there any way to download free stuff with out signing up with out credit card or I-Tunes?

 

[Joey D]

You need an iTunes account if you want to do anything, you don't need a credit card as far as I know to do that though.

 

[Dracwolley]

^you don't, but you can't buy any music or paid apps without one though.

Thanks for all of your help guys, started downloading games.

Sorry for the double post.


I was just starting up my iPod today, and I noticed there wasn't another slide. Odd, I thought. I tried to slide it, but there was not any slide to go to. So, that means all of my games have been wiped out! Including Angry birds, which I'd paid for! All of my progress gone on my other games! Is there anything I can do (other than having to possibly get them again)?

Could I please have a hand? This really has ticked me off.


Thanks,



SVX.
