New software update for iPod touch 4th generation? PLEASE HELP!!

Ok so here is the problem: I have the iPod touch 4th generation with software version 4.3 (I have had my iPod for about 7 months) and recently within the past week or so I have started experiencing multiple crashes with many different various apps and games. Just random games crashing and then I noticed it happening with the Facebook app and even Safari on my iPod! I had to get off of my iPod and come on the computer to type this message out because Safari would crash every single time I tried to type this on my iPod! So at first I figured it was the apps and games' problems, but then as more and more began to crash, like Facebook and Safari, I figured it is the Apple software version 4.3 acting up. So I was wondering, is Apple working on a new software update for iPod touch 4th gen.? Or is this a rare problem? Is there anyone out there having this same problem? Or anyone at all that can PLEASE help me?! MANY THANKS!

No one would know what Apple is working on, unless they announce, which they very rarely do.
Have you tried the basics from the manual?
restart.
reset.
restore.

  • HT2052 iOS Software Update for iPod touch (2nd generation)

    I am not able to use previous apps on my iPod touch 2nd generation or even install new apps cause of this issue. I find it very messed up that Apple is inputting these restrictions, because they want people to buy the latest versions of their gadgets. Not everyone finds it necessary to buy every new version of every technology or even have the money to do so. It is just really disappointing...

    There is nothing unusual about this at all.
    As with any tv, computer, dvd player, car,etc the older hardware is simply not capable of running the latest software.
    This is normal.
    The second gen was released over 4 years ago.

  • May I know if IOS 4.2.1 is the latest software update for Ipod touch 2nd generation?

    I own a Ipod touch 2nd gen. I realise that more and more apps are unavailable for my Ipod and it cant be updated to IOS 5. May I know if IOS 4.2.1 is the latest update for Ipod 2nd gen?

    Yes, it is.

  • No more software updates for iPod touch 1st generation?

    I have been attempting desperately to update the software on my first generation iPod touch, but iTunes continues to tell me that the 2.2.1 software is the most up to date version. I know this cannot be true considering the iPhone 4 software is currently be offered as a free update.
    Without any further updates, I can no longer use many of my favorite apps. Is there some fix I can try to get my iTunes to update my software?

    You can buy the update to os 3 here:

  • IOS 3.1.1 Software Update for iPod touch 1st generation failed.

    The downloading process was stucked in the Thank You screen ("Your update is downloading... ") for more than 2 hours and not going anywhere, nothing was downloaded at the end.  Anybody has the same issue before?
    Reported to the help desk for more than a month, got a reply saying it is an ongoing issue and is still under investigation! 
    I use the same PC to sync my iPad and had no problem to update it with the latest iOS software.
    What could be wrong?

    If, under "Requirements" it say ipod touch, then yes it will work.
    If, under "Requirements" it say iphone, then no.
    Look at the requirements. This is why they are posted in the product description in itunes.

  • IOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)

    I have purchased this update from the iTunes store but there's no indication that it is downloading and the ipod is not updating. Verbatim, the screen in iTunes  (including an incomplete second sentence) reads:
    Your update is now downloading.  This can take 30 minutes or more on a typical broadband connection.
    Once the download is complete
    Please do not disconnect your iPod touch until the update is complete.
    I have allowed probably up to 90 minutes on several occasions to download the update but still see nothing.  Current download speed at broadbandreports.com is 14 mb/sec.
    If I try to repurchase the update, iTunes tells me I've already bought it, but clicking on the download option is no different.
    Any advice much appreciated.

    Try disabling yur computer's security software. You can also contact iTunes:

  • Is there going to be a update for ipod touch 4th generation soon???

    I'm really hoping there will be a new update for my ipod soon... it's getting slow

    You probably don't need an update if your iPod is slower than it once was. Try the usual steps: restart, reset, restore.

    If you try restoring from a backup and that doesn't fix the problem, try restoring to factory settings and, if the problem goes away, then synching your apps. You'll lose the app data and settings, but if the problem is due to a corrupt cache or settings file, that should cure it.

  • When I got the prompt to update my iPod Touch 4th generation, the update claimed to have over 200 new features including Siri. Is there going to be another update that would make this a true statement?

              Keeps coming up when I try upgrading iOs 3.1.1 software to my 8gb 1st generation iPod touch! Please help! I've looked at all other posts related and none helped.

    Hello, I hope by now you have resolved the upgrade issue, but if not, here is what I ended up having to do:
    “SUCCESS!!! I took my iPod to a friend who is a computer programmer/genius. He turned off his wireless, hooked the ethernet cable directly into his computer, and the download went through without a hitch. YAY!”
    Here is my original post explaining what I had already tried:
    “Hi all,
    I got an iPod Touch 1st gen for my youngest son for Christmas as a starter. It has the 2.1.2 ios on it, but after I paid for the upgrade to 3.1.1, I keep getting an error message (8288) saying there was a problem with the network connection. I have called customer service, and they suggested I try on a different computer, and if that didn't work, try connecting to a different network, and then trying the update. None of this has worked. It seems that tech support is clueless with this issue.
    I have installed and unistalled iTunes 10.5, 10.3, 10.4, and now I am back with 10.5. I have tried looking up the issue from several search engines but no one seems to have a universal solution and I have tried several.
    I really want to have this thing updated for himw hwne he opens it, but I am starting to worry that my purchase was a bust. I know this is the oldest version, but I don't want to buy a newer, more expensive iPod and him still not be mature enough to really take care of it. As I said, this one is a starter.
    Can anyone help? Please?!
    Thank you!!!
    P.S. We have a PC, with Windows XP Home.”
    Now, there seem to be a lot of different ways to solve the 8288 error, none of which are universal. Best of luck getting yours upgraded!

    P.S. The post by Sparkhi is a link to his blog going into a long story about how he wanted Apple to pay him for “solving” the issue….the one that apparently has been solved by multiple solutions. I’m not trying to bash, it just bothers me that he put up this whole story and finally, at the very end of his blog post, posts his solution.

  • What is the next software update for ipod touch 4

    will ipod touch 4th generation ever get iOS 7
    What is the next software update for ipod touch 4

    No.
    All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory. The 4G only has 256 MB
    I would not expect any more updates for the 4G

  • I updated my iPod touch 4th generation from the latest iOS 4 update (i think maybe iOS 4.3.5 or something like that) to iOS 5.1.1 and my Photos, Videos, contacts, music, App data, etc. was deleted. How can I all the data back?

    I updated my iPod touch 4th generation from the latest iOS 4 update (i think maybe iOS 4.3.5 or something like that) to iOS 5.1.1. I updated to iOS 5.1.1 on a Windows XP Home Edition with the Service Pack 3 installed on the Windows XP (which I believe is the latest version). After updating, I unplugged my iPod from the computer. I saw that all my photos and videos were on my iPod, but there were no apps. A window popped up and told me to enter a passcode for my iPod. I entered a passcode. I then locked my iPod and entered what I thought to be the correct passcode, but my iPod remained unlocked. Desperate, I tried many passcodes with failure. After a while, my iPod became disabled for a long time. I decided to reset my iPod. After I reseted it, I chose to reset from my earlier back up. After reseting, my computer loaded on all my apps. But, when I started using my iPod, I realized all my photos, videos, music, app data (like game saves and high scores), etc. were gone! I have no idea what to do and I am very stressed about this! SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME GET ALL MY STUFF BACK!!!!!!

    Go to iTunea>Preferences>Devices and see if there is a backupright at the time you did the update. Then try restoring from that backup. If the apps are in your iTunes library, any app data will be restored to the iPod.
    When restoring from an iOS 4 (or later) backup, if the device had a passcode set, iTunes will ask if you want to set a passcode (and remind you that you had protected your device with a passcode). iTunes will not ask you to set a passcode when restoring from iOS 3.x and prior backups.
    Therefore, remembe the passcode that you enter this time.
    It appears that if you restore from a backup, that backup is not subseqyently overwritten by the next backup.
