2.0-will it have the january software update?

i did not get the january software update for the ipod touch, which was stupid. Apparently i need it to get the apps. does anyone know if the 2.0 will have the january stuff and allow me to do everything? or is there only rumors of what is included? Apple should not have taken the january Software update off itunes.

Apple should not have taken the january Software update off itunes.
Of course, the alternative would have been for Apple to leave it on there, let you pay the $20 for it up until July 10th, then let you pay the additional $10 for the July Upgrade, including the very upgrade for which you had just paid $20. Wouldn't that have been fair of them? Just asking...

HT4623 My iPad does not have the automatic software update and I do not know how to download IOS if under settings there is no software update button available. Do I have to reset my iPad and lose data?

My iPad does not have the automatic software update and I do not know how to get IOS 6 onto it. When I go into settings there is no software update button.

If you are really on iOS 5 then look in Settings > General > Software update.
Otherwise:
If you are using iOS 4 (or earlier) there is no Software Update in Settings. That feature was first added in iOS 5.
To update you will have to connect your iPad to iTunes on a computer (preferably the one you sync with and backup to).

How do you know when you have the latest software updates

how do you know when yo have the lastest software updates on your older IPOD? I just purchased on home theater to replace one, Samsung, I was assured that the system would run my IPOD. I've sync'd my IPOD to my computer a number of times before the purchase and since. Samsung is telling me that I need to update my IPOD. My ITunes keeps telling me there aren't any updates out there.

Read the top of the page I gave you the link to. The
latest update that you do not have only added more
support for the Shuffle. If you are not having any
problems leave as is. If you have problems then
download the update. It will ask you for your user
ID. Once you install the updater, your computer will
reboot.
This is what it says at the download site.. iPod Software 1.0
* iPod with video
Everything is working fine Barb with the ipod but I was under the assumption that if an update is available, I should download it...

HT4623 MY IPAD DOES NOT HAVE THE TERM SOFTWARE UPDATE ON THE GENERAL LIST ??

i am try to update my ipad to 5 and do not have the term software update on my genral page?? how do i proceed?

iPad first generation doesn't update beyond 4.2.1, you need at least iPad 2 for this.
If you're using iPad 2 or later, you should connect your iPad to iTunes on a computer and update from there.

What happened to the January Software Update?

I am somewhat ticked that my iPod Touch lost it's January Update (which I paid 25 frikin' dollars for) when I restored it!!! So then... now what? Does anyone know how to get the January update again? I lost it and I'm desperate! Come on people! Some one must have had that problem before me!!! :P Or if no one had this problem... tell me too! :S

If you purchased it, are using the computer it was downloaded to (and have not wiped your HDD, etc.), it should be restored when you re-sync. If you lost the file "iPod touch App Pack 4A93.ipa" due to a failed HDD, or your computer is not authorized in iTunes, you won't be able to get the Upgrade back.
Note that all of the features from the January Upgrade are included with the new $10 v2.0 Upgrade.
Hope this helps...

Does anyone know what to do?

I'm on hold to apple support right now, Michael, to ask a similar question. I was able to back up itunes and mail, but no documents either in pages or in word. what are you doing? Fred

IPOD touch Screen is blacked out. I charges and itunes recognizes it, only the screen remains black. Is there any way to fix this Problem. I have the latest software update and I restored it several times, but screen remains blacked out.

My IPOD touch 4th gen screen does not display. The software seems to be working and itunes recognizes the device. I have restored it and reset the IPOD several times but the screen is still black. What can I do to fix it? your help is very much appreciated. I do not have access to an apple store since I am stationed in Afghanistan.

If you restored to factory defaults/new iPod (you did not say the type of restore your performed) and are still having the problem that indicates a hardware problem. An appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order..

IPhone 5 not being recognized in iTunes (Mac). I have the latest Software update for iTunes, my iPhone, and my Mac. I have gone through the iTunes connectivity troubleshooting, no luck. Any suggestions/solutions?

The reason I found this problem is that I did a complete reset of my iPhone, so it reset all the content, through settings on the phone. That ended up deleting the ringtones I had. I tried searching up the same tones, however you can't "Install" already purchased stuff like you can in the AppStore.
I can't "iTunes wifi-sync" because you need to have connected at least once to the computer before you can wifi-sync, but because I reset my phone, it doesn't "remember" it once synced with my Mac cause I reset it.
I have gone through the "iTunes connectivity troubleshooting", nothing worked.
http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/itunes/#section_1
My iPhone charges fine with the USB-Wall outlet adapter, so its not the lightning connector or the USB connector on the other end of the cord.
All the USB ports on my Mac are functionning (working with other cords for printers, etc.), but still the iPhone persists not to be recognized in iTunes.
So I am guessing iTunes is the problem.
Any Help, Solutions, Suggestions, would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I had not tried that article, however I already went throught the troubleshooting assistant, which covers everything that article has.
I am about to try to delete and re-install iTunes though, which was mentioned in your artile link.
Thanks for the help.
I'll post my findings/results.

HT4623 My ipod touch does not have the option "software update." It currently has the version4.2.1. How do I update the software?

How do I update the software?

Sounds like your ipod version is too old like 2nd version. Call apple to verify. 4.2.1 is a Marker as the highest older devices can go. If itunes or your computer operating system is old or not updated it can say this is current.

Unable to reinstall January Software Update

I recently had to move to a new Mac after installing the January Software Update on the Touch. After ensuring I had all the songs and other content from the old machine I restored the iPod Touch wanting to rebuild all songs etc. from scratch. However, the January Software Update is gone, and I don't find out how to reinstall it.
I have read the support notes that automatically shows up, and checked that I have all the other updates and versions needed.
Every time I access the iTunes Store I am reminded that I can buy the update, but I already did. When I access my account (the same account I used to buy the update - I have only one), I see the purchase in the purchase history, but there is no obvious way to redownload it (the old download was on the old machine). So, I even tried to buy it again, but then the clever shop tells me I have already bought it and gives me no way to buy it again, redownload it or reinstall it. So I'm stuck. I cannot buy it. I cannot redownload it and I cannot reinstall it.
Has anyone an idea for a workaround?
Toralf

The files are on your old Mac.
See this:
The iPod touch January Software Upgrade can only be synced to iPod touch from the primary iTunes library. If the user is manually managing music and video on iPod, this is the computer where they first set up the iPod or first set it up after restoring the iPod. The "iPod touch App Pack 4A93.ipa" file can be copied from the computer where you purchased it to your primary iTunes library computer, and sync the iPod from there.
The file is located here:
Mac OS X:
~/Library/iTunes/Mobile Applications
Windows XP
C:\Documents and Settings\[user name]\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\Mobile Applications\
Windows Vista:
C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Roaming\\Apple Computer\iTunes\Mobile Applications\
Note: These locations are hidden by default in Windows. You can these locations by choosing "Show hidden files and folder" in the View tab of the Folder Options Control Panel.
Once you have copied the "iPod touch App Pack 4A93.ipa" file to the computer with your home library, make a new folder named Mobile Applications in the correct location, and place the "iPod touch App Pack 4A93.ipa" file there. Open iTunes and sync your iPod touch.

IPod Touch - Reinstall January Software Update

NOTE TO APPLE: Your site is terrible; it's slow and hard to navigate. Also, it is nearly impossible to contact anyone from apple; you have so many webpages that are supposed to help people who are having problems. When really they just deter users from speaking to an actual representative and leaving your customers to fend for themselves, annoyed and angered.
ANYWAY
My problem is this, in March I purchased the January Software Update for my iPod touch. Then for whatever reason, my iPod stopped showing up in iTunes. I was told the only reason to resolve this would be to hard reset my iPod, I did this (it didn't work but the problem was eventually solved)
Now I am faced with the issue of getting the January Software Update back onto my iPod without paying for it again. The purchase shows up in your records, and the file is no longer on my computer.
I purchased it on 03/07/08 at 9:33 PM and I have both the order number and the invoice number for this purchase.
How do I get the software update onto my iPod without paying for it again?

Hi,
Note to ...MITCHELL... thanks for your help.
Zach,
Your upgrade should reinstall if you auto resynch i.e. turn off "manually manage music and video" and synch. I think you have to be logged in to iTunes with your original Apple I.D. also.
If not check to see you have the correct files in the right places, see this post from [A A P L|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6646337&#6646337]
If you don't have the file anymore through OS reinstallation etc. then I believe you can notify Apple through a link on your iTunes purchase page. This answer has been posted elsewhere.
Good luck,
Dud.
