Hi...I recently acquired a new 3rd gen ipod touch...I though they were supposed to have mics on them..? maybe I'm completely wrong. I don't know :/

Also, whenever I plug it in to a different computer it starts deleteing all of my apps, how do I fix that?
 
1) The mic is built into the earphones, not the iPod itself.

2) iPods can only be synced to one computer (unless you use manual sync, but I don't have any additional information about that, sorry).
 
iPod touch

If the iPod touch is an 8gb it will NOT support mics.
It its 32gb or 64gb then yes it will.

I was under the impression that the iOs 3.0 update enabled microphone use on the 2G iPod Touch, which is what the 8Gb versions are. Is this wrong?

And when I say microphone use, I mean like using Skype, not Voice Memos, those are only one the 3G iPod Touches as far as I know.
 
no mic built in, need headphones, OGDaniel did you really just post a hyperlink to google? 😀
you probably need to have a more descriptive title, the editors wont like that much.
