See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with the following unless you revoed and reinstall all Apple software, not just iTunes:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

download with itunes, or with one of your devices, and re-try, most causes it the update server it self.

Problem with the purchasing iOS 3.1 software update for iPod touch

I have an ipod touch (1st generation) and now while I'm looking for my update to iOS 3.1 for the most current, seeking the support of Apple. I found an article talking about buying an upgrade for the iPod touch iOS 3.1 Software (1st generation) then decided to buy. That afternoon, I bought it, but so far so I can not download update. I receive a email informing me of my purchase, but when I'm redirected to the download page. I click on start downloading, but nothing happens. I wanted someone who went through this to help me, because I wanted this update!

Thank you.
Your update is being downloaded. This download may take 30 minutes or more on a typical broadband connection.
Once the download is complete.
Do not disconnect the iPod touch until the update is complete
AND NOTHING MORE...

Well first off you shouldn't have had to pay for a download (just an assumption from the word "purchased".
If you are trying to install iOS 5 on your iPod touch, it won't work they arent compatible. I suggest checking what version of software you are trying to install and posting it in this forum so people can have a better understanding.

I too had the same issue. This is how I resolved it http://www.parkhi.net/2011/12/error-8288-ipod-touch-upgrade-ios-31.html

HT4623 Now that iOS is consistently being updated. Will the 1st Generation IPad be stuck with IOS 5? Eventually my IPad will be good for nothing as Apps start requiring the updated software.

The iPad 1 can only be updated to iOS 5.1.1. This is unlikely to change.
The apps you have will continue to work and there are still many apps which run on iOS 5 (or even earlier iOS levels).

How do I update iOS to 3.1 on ipod touch 1st generation?

Hi
I want to be able to put games on my ipod 1st generation touch so my 5yr old keeps his sticky mitts off my iphone! Ive read the software needs to be updated to iOS 3.1 so that the App Store appears on the touch (at present the version is 1.1.5) Ive also read that you go into itunes store and purchase this update for a few dollars. Probably me being stupid but I searched on itunes store and cant find it.
Please can anyone tell me if Im following the correct and easiest way of being able to put some free games on the ipod touch and if I am, where/how do i update the touch so the App Store appears
Many thanks in advance
Best wishes

HT4623 Updating an iPod touch (1st generation) to the current IOS?

Can I update my iPod touch (1st generation) to the current IOS?
Or at least to 4.3 so I can run Minecraft on it?

To update
iTunes 10 for Windows: Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
A 1G iPod can go to iOS 3.1.3
A 2G to 4.2.1. Requires iTunes version 10.X. That requires a Mac with OSX 10.5.8 or later. With 1OSX 10.4.11 you can only go to iTunes 9.X which gets you as high as iOS 4.1
A 3G to 5.1.1 Requires iTunes version 10.5 or later
A 4G to 6 Requires iTunes version 10.7 or later. That requires a Mac with OSX 10.6.8 or later
