Hi

 

I have just done a factory reset or what I thought was one and now all I have on the iPod touch is a picture if a CD and iTunes and the USB cable every time I turn it on.  Any ideas here?  I am not sure what I have done.

 

Cheers.

sounds like you need to connect it to itunes to activate it before you can do anything else...

It is not broke or anything is it?  Because I am looking to sell it, but sounds like iTunes is a must first then?

 

Cheers

yep, it's only very recently and with the newer firmware you have been able to active an ipod/iphone over wireless without having to plug it in to itunes.  It was one of the most annoying apple related things when you bought one, it was absolutely useless until you plugged it in to itunes to activate it!
