Have you tried reseting the iPod? Notihng is lost?
Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • How install ios 4.3.1. in my ipod touch 2g

    I need to know, how download last version of  iOS 4.3.1. in my ipod touch 2g. I want to install Facebook and i couldn´t
    Hola, quiero instalar en mi ipod touch 2g la version de IOS 4.3.1. El problema es que no se como hacerlo... me ayudan por favor?
    Realmente necesito instalar Facebook, pero me pide esta version del sistema operativo.
    Gracias

    Well, that's not true....cause i had Ios 4.3...something on my 4 year old ipod touch, and i had facebook on it, but then i bouht a new computer, and the ipod was reinstalled, and now i can't install facebook or anything anymore, it just keep saying that i don't have Ios 4.3....and that's wierd because i had i before the reinstallation.....so my guess is that Apple, some how, have blocked the Ios 4.3 for this type of ipod touch, so everyone can go spend some money on new apple devices because the old ones can't be used for anything anymore!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:S
    And sorry about my english:)

  • Can I put iOS 5 on my 2nd Gen iPod Touch?

    Hello, I have a 2nd Gen iPod touch and I cannot get any apps because I have an older ios. Can anyone help me?

    To more easily find compatible apps:
    iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
    Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
    Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

  • How do i install ios 5 or 6 on my ipod touch 4th generation

    My ipod touch and iPad are not communicating with regard to calendars or contacts
    I do not believe my iPod Touch has been updated with either IOS 5 or 6  and when I connect to the iTunes store all I get as an available update is a new version of iTunes with has a fee of $29. 
    When I try to connect thru setting, then by selecting general there is no software update tab
    Prior to the IOS 6 update on my iPad both devices were communicating
    Please help

    and when I connect to the iTunes store all I get as an available update is a new version of iTunes with has a fee of $29.
    Huh? There is no fee for upgrading iTunes or your version of iOS on the iPod Touch or iPad.  The only paid update was iOS 3.1.3.
    What do you mean by they are communicating? You'll likely need to update the iPod Touch to iOS 6 to resolve the problem.

  • IPod touch 4 gives message "Cannot Download" "there is not enough available storage to download...You can manage your storage in settings." when trying to update or install one but not all apps. I have more storage than the app takes. Can u help?

    iPod touch 4 gives message "Cannot Download" "there is not enough available storage to download...You can manage your storage in settings." when trying to update or install one of the apps, but not other apps.  I have more space available than needed for the app.  What do I need to do to fix this problem?  Do I need to completely reset this device as new and, if so, how should I do that? 

    You need to delete some item (apps, music, photos etc) from the iPod,.However, sometime files get corrupt. To determine that connect the iPod to your computer and click on the iPod under Devices in iTunes. How much storage is used by the "other" category. If over 1 1/2 GB that indicates corrupted files.
    To get the "other" down to normal value you need to restore your iPod usually restoring from backup works but sometimes restoring to factory settings.new iPod is required./

  • What does error -3259 mean? How can i update my ipod touch to the new ios 5?

    I been updating my ipod touch 4 software to the new ios 5 all day. i tried disabling my security programs and firewall, different download programs and reinstalling iTunes, and restarting my ipod touch. But for each attempt i get a different error. i went to the Specific update and restore errror code page and got a reason for each error except for error -3259. Basically my question is: 1. How can i update my ipod software to io5 and 2. What is the reason behind error -3259?

    Connect it to iTunes on a computer and update it from there. Note that the second generation iPod touch(which includes 8GB models sold at the same time as the third generation ones) can't be updated past 4.2.1.

  • Can I update my older ipod touch to play new games that require ios 4.3?

    Can I update my older ipod touch to play new games that require ios 4.3?  After I purchased games for my son's ipod, they would not upload due to ios.  How can I update that without purchasing a new touch?

    iOS 4.3 requires a third generation or newer iPod touch; you don't need to buy a brand new device in any case.

  • I have an older Ipod touch with 4.2.1 and cannot be updated any further, how do I install apps on it now?  so far every app I have tried says I need an updated IOS.  This sounds like I now have an apple product paper weight.

    I have an older Ipod touch with 4.2.1 and cannot be updated any further, how do I install apps on it now?  so far every app I have tried says I need an updated IOS.  This sounds like I now have an apple product paper weight unless I want to run out and buy the latest and greatest overpriced apple product. 

    Are you willing to buy a newer iPod? How about the 4g @ 16gb for $199* usd or the 5g @ 32gb for $299*.

  • Why can't I update my ipod touch to the iOS 4.3?

    Why can't I update my ipod touch to the iOS 4.3?
    I try to update my ipod touch 4th gen. to the new iOS 4.3 software and the thing loads and after the 7-8 minutes or so, when it says "processing file" a pop up says that the network connection has timed out, and to check my network settings.

I've tried restoring it but it says I have to get the new software and then I get the same result( this time ipod not restored).... What's going on with my ipod? Anyone help?

    I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF ANYTHING GOES WRONG. THIS IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
    Hi,
    Have you tried to see if you have the newest version of iTunes? Also, it may help if you try the following steps.
    Download iOS from a third-party website (i reccomend http://whited00r.com/) (as this is a full operating system, it is a big download and may take time on a slow internet connection)
    Unzip the file.
    After unzipping, you should now have a .ipsw file.
    Open iTunes
    Connect your device and make sure you take a back-up of it first (if you don't all your data will be erased)
    Now, while pressing the Restore button, hold down the Alt key (for Mac) or the Shift key (for Windows).
    You should now have a window open asking you to choose a file.
    Choose the file you just downloaded from whited00r.com
    Press OK
    It should start replacing your current OS to the new one.
    When this finishes, your device will restart
    Click restore from (whatever your old device was called)
    It will put back all your apps and information
