Hi, I've been given an Ipod Touch 2nd Generation for Christmas and want to download a few games but the ones I want say I need to update software to ios 4.3. Is this possible to do on this ipod?

No, a 2nd Gen iPod can only go up to iOS4.2.1

  • My logic board has failed, and I'm having to buy an external hard drive. Can someone walk me through thr process of how to do this?

    My logic board failed, and I need to buy an external hard drive. Can someone walk me through the process of doing this? Will the Genius Bar do it for free?
    Also, I have a borrowed Mac right now. If I put the new hard drive on this computer will it erase the computer's current hard drive? Do I have to put the hard drive on another Mac?
    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    if your logic board failed then connecting an ext. drive will be non productive.
    if you take your hdd out of the failed mac and replace it into the borrowed mac you can then extract everything from that hdd. simply connect the external hdd, go into time machine preferences select your new ext. drive as the destination.
    the external drive has to be formatted to mac os extended journaled. however you can purchase ext. drives already formatted for mac.
    if you are having the logic board replaced then just put the old hdd back in, it will boot up normally.
    you can rest easy knowing that if anything goes wrong, you have the ability to use your fresh backup to produce the same operating environment that you were using before things went wrong.

  • HT4205 Can I update my iPod touch 2nd generation with iOS 4.2.1 to restore the iOS  to a new and improved iOS? Can I go from iOS 4.2.1 too iOS 5.0.

    All you can do is get a newer model iPod. The 2G can only go as high as 4.2.1. Its hardare does not support a higher iOS version

  • I can't update my Ipod Touch 2nd Generation to IOS 5, why?

    I would really like to get IOS 5. But when I plug my scond gen. Ipod Touch into Itunes, it says that 4.3.1 is the latest update.
    Please Help, thanks in advance.
    P.S: my pc is a Toshiba Satilite, running Windows Vista Home Premium, and I have Itunes 10.5.

    So, because it's not compatible with IOS 5, does that mean I won't be able to use the new apps?
    Before buying in App you should read the description carefully. Each App states the requirements and on which platform it will be able to run. And yes, sorry, many of the new Apps require IOS 5, and since they have been compiled for IOS 5 and their code requires the runtime support of the OS, it is impossible to run them on a different OS.
    Please could you tell me if there is a way to update it without going via Itunes because a bit of internet research tells me that Apple do it so that you just have to buy a new Ipod. I do not want to do any illegal downloads.
    An interesting question, but I will not be so taktless to answer that question in a forum provided by Apple, and you should not ask us to do that 

  • I was told to use Mozilla Firefox to use 'mirc" whatever that is ---but my computer won't let me---can someone walk me through the process?

    Here's the deal. I want to go to multiplayertrivia.com and play this interactive online trivia game, and I can't seem to get started. I know my computer is capable of this, because I signed up and used this "mirc" thing before when using a different internet provider, to play this same game. Current internet provider (comcast) refuses to help.
    Warning: I do not speak techno-speak and I am nearly completely technologically illiterate. You will have to talk down to me.

    You can try contacting Apple here.

    You do know tht if you created a new Apple ID - that is different than changing the Apple ID. Apps are always tied to the ID that was used to make the purchase. If the old ID is popping up, it seems like that ID is rid to the apps indicating that you created a new ID. Of course, I could be wrong or misunderstanding what you're saying as well.
    If you go to Settings>iTunes & App Store, tap your old ID and sign out and then sign in with the new ID, that should be all that you need to do, if you changed the ID. If you created a new ID, that will not work.

  • Hello. Today, I was updating my iPod Touch 4th Generation to iOS 6. I unplugged the iPod when it was during the installation because it appeared to be frozen. Now the iPod is stuck at a light blue screen even after I reset it. How do I fix it?

    Hello. Today, I was updating my iPod Touch 4th Generation to iOS 6. I unplugged the iPod when it was during the installation because it appeared to be frozen. Now the iPod is stuck at a light blue screen even after I reset it. How do I fix it?

    You will need to do a DFU restore by holding the home and power buttons down (while the device is plugged in to your computer) until the device's screen goes black and as soon as the screen goes black, count down from 3 and release the power/sleep button, but keep holding down the home button. Then, iTunes will say the iPod needs to be restored. The restore process will take some time and even though the iPod may appear to be frozen, don't interrupt the restore.

    Hi all i won't update my iPod touch 4 generation to ios 5 but there are win the download end its showing a massage (the network connection timed out)

    Okay. I've tried syncing it first, resetting it first, downloading the firmware, uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, I've checked my connections and ports and everything, run all kinds of diagnostics, and nothing is working. Every time it says it's backing it up, my iPod resets and then it's back to square one. I'm going to restore it and see if that helps. What a pain in the butt, especially since it wouldn't back it up.... >.<
