Can i put iOS5 update on my 2nd gen. itouch?

i have a 16 gig, 2nd gen itouch. can i get the iOS5 software update on it? if so how. and if not, will they make it available anytime soon?

Probably not, if memory serves, iOS5 is only available for iPod touch 3rd generations on up.

  • 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.

    Try to force your iPod into recovery mode. Disconnect it from the computer's USB cord. Turn it off if you can by holding the sleep/wake switch until you see the red slide to off. _Press and hold the home button_ while plugging it into the computer's USB cord. _Continue holding the Home button_ while the iPod starts up. While starting up, you will see the Apple logo. When you see "Connect to iTunes" on the screen, you can release the Home button and iTunes will display the recovery mode message. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    Then you can restore your iPod: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

  • I just PAID for Black eyed peas Time of my life and now iTunes says I can't put it on my iPod 5th gen ? What? Why? And how can I get it on my ipod?

    I just PAID for Black eyed peas Time of my life and now iTunes says I can't put it on my iPod 5th gen ? What? Why? And how can I get it on my ipod? And if I can't put it on my ipod how do I get my money back? I registered my ipod on iTunes, why was a song I can't put on my ipod even offered to me? What a rip?

    Because you can only synce with one iTunes library and you are switching libries by using the new computer. To nake this yyour syncing computer:
    - Move all the media(apps, music, synced video and photos etc) to the new computer.
    - Connect the iPofd yo the computer and bake a backup fo the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.
    Note that the backup that iTunes makes doe not include media.
    To move mdia to the new computer see:
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer

    I updated my itunes (latest verion out as of nov/20/2012) and restored my 2nd gen itouch, now my itouch does not work properly (keeps freezing). how do i fix this?

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

  • HT5569 cannot connect to wi-fi network with my 2nd gen itouch even after following most troubleshooting solutions; have 3 other devices that connect with no problem (using wndr3700v3 dual router)

    cannot connect to home wi-fi connection with my 2nd gen itouch even after following most troubleshooting solutions. i have 2 5-gen itouch ipods and a kindle fire hd 8.9 that can connecto to my wi-fi network and even download from my e-mail accounts with no problem. it had no problem connecting with my old a/b/g netgear router nor the first time i installed my new netgear wndr3700v3 router. since then, no connection. don't know what happened.
    help

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    Could it be this:
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
    Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
    Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
    Power up
    Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

  • 2nd Gen itouch syncing

    2nd Gen itouch: I am using Outlook Express on my PC & wish to continue doing so.
    Succesfully synced music, photos & bookmarks but will not sync address book. I have tried using Outlook, this does not work and have followed all insructions in manual. Can anyone help?

    Can anyone help?
    Not here I'm afraid. This is the *Mac OS X Technologies > iSync* forum, which has nothing to do with syncing iPod touch (not iTouch) to Windows PCs.

  • Activating bluetooth on 2nd Gen itouch

    hello
    i just got the 2nd gen itouch and was wondering if anyone can provide me with step by step instructions on activating the bluetooth.
    Thanks so much.

    - Purchase and install version 3.0 of the iPhone/Touch software from the iTunes Store.
    - Go into Settings>General and set Bluetooth to On.
    Note: The only Bluetooth devices that the Touch will currently sync with are stereo speakers and headphones (NOT headset/mic combos such as you would use with a cell phone).

  • Solitaire City on 2nd Gen. iTouch

    I've got Solitaire City on my 2nd gen iTouch. Here's my question for the group. When playing a game and you move a card from the field to the "home row", a bell sounds. On my iTouch I hear a crackle when the bell sounds. I'm just wondering if anyone else hears the same thing, or do i have a screwed speaker.
    I hope to hear from others.
    Thanks

    - Purchase and install version 3.0 of the iPhone/Touch software from the iTunes Store.

  • The backlight on my 2nd gen itouch has quit...

    The backlight on my 2nd gen itouch has quit... I restored the restored the software, but it didn't help - I'm sure its a hardware problem. Does anyone know what the fix for this might cost? Thanks
    I couldn't see any other similar questions until this posted just a second ago - in case in helps with the diagnosis, the backlight does come on intermittently, which made me think it was a software problem, but now I'm just not sure. 

    I would make an appontment at the Genius Bar of an Applew store.  It is free except for your time.  Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished 2G for:
    Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
    A third-party place may be less expensive: Here us one.  Google for more.
    iPhone Repair, Service & Parts: iPod Touch, iPad, MacBook Pro Screens
    However, it may not be worth it for a 2G iPod.
