I have an iBook G4, its current OS is 10.4.11(tiger i think) i cant update itunes past 9.2 which is a big problem for my new ipod touch 4th gen! please help me someone!

hello, i have an iBook G4 which is old, it has an OS of 10.4.11 which is called tiger i think, forgive me im new to apple,
it has a version of itunes installed (9.2) which worked fine with my 1st gen ipod touch but ive upgraded to a 4th gen ipod touch and now my itunes version is no longer compatible, the problem is that because my os is out of date i cant install the current version of itunes so i  think i need to upgrade my OS.
Like i say im quite new to apple so any help or information would be greatly appreciated. thank you

As Niel has suggested Mac OS X 10.5 Lepaord.
But first of all make sure that your iBook is above 800Mhz and you have at least 512 Meg of memory. (1 GB recommended)
Please note, that if you do install Mac OS X 10.5 on your iBook, it will not allow you to install the latest version of iTunes version 11. The most recent version of iTunes that can be installed would be 10.5, which will be compatible with your iPod touch 4th gen, provided it's not been updated to iOS 6.
Sadly you can't install any version of Mac OS X above 10.5 Leopard, as it they requires an Intel processor, which your iBook G4 does not have.
Hope this helps.

  • New iPod Touch 4th gen. cannot connect to home wi-fi network

    When I launch wi-fi on my new iPod Touch 4th gen. my home network's name is displayed, but after entering my password the iPod is unable to connect - the wheel to the left of the network name just keeps spinning.   The network still functions properly for all my other devices (MacBook, 2nd gen. iPod Touch, wireless printer and my wife's PC) and the new iPod Touch did connect to the network in the Apple Store when I visited yesterday.   I know the password I enetered for my home network is correct because I've checked it in my keychain, and also the iPod did not inform me that it was the wrong password for that network - as it does if I enter another password.
    I have followed the advice given to others - unplugging the Time Capsule and leaving it for 5 minutes, checking that all my software and firmware is up to date, 'forgetting' the network on my new iPod then searching for it again, and have completely restored the iPod - but it still cannot connect to my network.   If my network is functioning properly, and my new iPod was capable of joining the Apple Store's network yesterday, and I am sure that I am entering the correct password, it seems to me that my problem must be due to some network setting that is refusing to allow a new device to connect.   I can't find where that setting might be - can anyone advise?

    depending on what router but hopefully all routers came to this default address....
    192.168.1.1/Wireless_MAC.asp
    from
    >Setup of the Basic Setup you goto
    >Wireless
    >WirelessMacFilter
    also had an idea when i wanna make sure im typing the right one, i would do is tap each letter/# by 1, as in,
    (e.q.)
    here's my ipod 4 and my ipod 2, the pswd is 123456
    ipod 4, i press 1
    ipod 2, i press 1
    ipod 4, i press 2
    ipod 2, i press 2
    and so on till i reach both of them to 6 (1by1) to make sure i get it in there right. saw this on another wall it might depends on what channel your using, but i dont rly think that matters bc i have mine on auto and nvr had a problem.
    i would do this even thou it may sound crazy to others....if i were you this is what i would do
    on your ipod 2Gen
    >Safari
    >address to 192.168.1.1/WL_WPATable.asp
    -(wireless security settings for passcode)
    >tap the box for the password, whatever ur security is i would copy
    -IF WEP
    -copy phrase key and Key 1
    -IF WPA
    -copy phrase key
    >open Notepad
    >under iCloud account Notepad
    >Paste the Key
    >either on your pc/mac or your 2nd Gen, go back to
    >192.168.1.1/WL_WPATable.asp
    >change your Security Mode to Disable
    >goto your 4 Gen iPod Touch
    >goto settings and connect to it, if pswd is still in it then tap forget this network and reconnect to it
    -once connected and got IP adresses
    >goto Notpad under iCloud
    -you should have obtained your recent icloud msgs included the key you pasted
    -once obtained
    >gobk to pc/mac or ipod 2nd gen and re enabled the security and re-paste the key in
    -once router adjusted try to connect to it
    >1st do your 2nd gen and forget this network reconnect to it and repaste the key
    >2nd goto ur 4rth gen from your notes, highlight the key in ur notpad and tap copy and forget this network reconnect to it and paste the key.
    this should work bc i did it myself when i couldnt get connected bc thats almost the same steps i did.
    somtimes i put my name up on here. remeber these names we put as our nickname doesnt mean its our real name or anything like that,

  • My brand new ipod touch 4th gen wont let me sync new songs to it

    I just got my new ipod touch 4th gen 2 days ago and it wont let me sync any new songs to it and it wont let me take any songs off it either. Ive tried rebooting it and restoring it serveral times and nothing seems to work. Also I updates my itunes and still nothing. HELP

    What specific attributes (resolution, frame rate, bit-rate, audio forma etc.),do the mp4 videos have?  There are many variations in the mp4 format.  Have you tried using the Create iPod and iPhone version in the Advanced tab of iTunes?

  • Honestly--how easy to scrach new iPod Touch 4th GEN?

    There arent many screen protectors out for the new ipod touch 4th. So I was wondering honestly...how scratch proof is the screen?
    Im not clumsy or anything. Im debating to just leave it as is.
    Thanks

    My iPod 2G got super scratched up, and I take great care not to put it in my pockets with coins, other devices, etc. My 4G screen has not scratched at all, so for some weird reason I think it is more scratch resistent. HOWEVER....I would strongly suggest a case for it. My 4G iPod recently got dropped from about 2 and a half feet and shattered the entire lower left portion of the screen. Luckily, APPLE RETAIL STORES FREAKING ROCK, and they are replacing it for free...I just have to wait for the new one to come in. A case is highly recommended. I had bought mine online, but it did not come in prior to the drop.

  • I really need some help!!! ipod touch 4th gen 8g help needed

    my ipod touch 4th gen wont let me turn on it's wifi, use video camera(although i can take pics with both cameras), play music/ no sound or bluetooth, it was dropped into a toilet a long time ago, and i dont have the money to buy new parts, plus its a hand-me-down... any suggestions, i noticed that the motherboard had some corrosion near the wifi antenna's solder location so i wiped it off, and cleaned everything with a dry napkin but i think there are some capaceters ruined. i put it back together and that didnt help. also the wifi is greyed out, there is no internet status bars whatsoever. its not slow, and the apps work just fine. please please help, i've been wanting an ipod for over two years now, and i finally got it, just not the way i wanted it... HELP!

    could it be possible its only the motherboard that needs replacing, i'm good with tech' but i dont quite understand the ipod yet

  • Can't connect brand new iPod touch 4th gen to iTunes, please help!

    I just got a new iPod touch, 16 gig 4th generation. I'm going through the setup process. Once I get to the option to connect through a network, I hit a problem. My internet at home requires a MAC address to be "invited" into the network before I can connect, however I can't get the MAC address until I complete setup!
    So I choose the "Connect to iTunes" option instead. My computer recognizes that there is an iPod connected to it, but iTunes won't pick it up. There is nothing under "Devices".
    What do I do?? ):

    I just retried a step I missed earlier in the articles before and ran into a problem here:
    #5 Verify that the apple mobile devi usb driver is installed
    > for windows 7
    > if the apple mobile device usb driver is not listed
    > if only Apple iPod appears
    > for windows 7
    I went through all these steps until #8: Click OK in the "Install from Disk" dialog. At this point it tries to load for a bit and I get this message:
    "Windows encountered a problem installing the driver software for your device.
    Windows found driver software for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install it. (Apple Mobile Device USB Driver)
    Windows cannot initialize the device driver for this hardware. (Code 37)"
    As for your reply, I did indeed already try removing and reinstalling all the Apple programs with unfortunately no effect.
    When I do the sync test, I get that one or more things failed: iTunes Helper not running and No iPod found.

  • My new iPod touch 4th gen is not working only showing apple icon! Been on charge for ages! And have tried to re set it turning off coming back to icon screen then not doing anything from there! Help!

    New iPod touch. Been working fine, needed charging so have charged it for ages. Only apple icon screen is appearing and nothing else! Have tried re setting still nothing! Help!

    - Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
    - Try another charging source
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • How do I get my new iPod Touch (4th gen) to authorize for old purchases?

    Recently, I upgraded to the iPod Touch 4th generation model. Unfortunately, even though I have authorized my PC for the new device repeatedly, old purchases cannot be synced. I continue to get the error message that I am not authorized on the computer. My Apple ID and password have not changed and now I am out hundreds of dollars in songs and movies I simply cannot load to the new iPod. Any suggestions in resolving this issue?

    You are following the instructions here, right?

    This may help.
