So I have a iPod Touch 1st Gen. & I connected the firewire charger to the computer and the iPod Touch made a ‘beeping’ sound and its charging but nothing happened on the screen and it’s not showing on iTunes. I can’t reinstall/update iTunes because I don’t have admin rights… Plus, there’s no other plugins where a firewire charger can be plugged in.. & my iPod Touch only works with a firewire charger soo.. Getting a USB cord won’t do. /: Please help. > <
If your iPod touch only works with firewire, that could mean that you have a bad battery. Firewire is higher (8-30 volts) than the USB voltage of 5 volts nominal. You can use Firewire to charge only. It will only sync over USB. Check on here for a list of iPod compatibilities with firewire. Good Luck iPod Touch 1st Generation Battery Replacement [linked product missing or disabled: IF132-005-1]
