Hi, I just got a second hand ipod touch 16gb 1st gen and i want to remove all the songs and memory on it, but i updated it last night from itunes (which i had to pay £2.99 for).

I was just wondering if i reset it now will i have to buy the update again ?

Thanks :)

    Sorry, don't understand what you paid £2.99 for.

    You got the iPod second-hand, you downloaded iTunes onto your PC or mac, connect the iPod to the PC/mac and when the iPod is recognised, you use the 'restore to factory settings' button in iTunes.

    If you reset the iPod, it will reset with the latest firmare you have.

    I think you may find there is a nominal charge to upgrade some of the first 1G touches but as this is a firmware upgrade then there is no need to worry about it going if a full reset is needed as it will then be registered has having this upgrade and all future ones should be free.

    I think you'll find the OP has already paid this "nominal charge".

    Funny, I can't see where I said they had not paid, I was just explaining that was what the charge was for.
