Can the iPod Touch 5th Generation support iOS 5?

Just wondering if the new breed of iPod Touch will be iOS 5 (and by that I mean possibly, 5.0.0,  5.15.0,  5.25.0.1,  5.35.1, or 5.45.1.1).  If it can support one of the versions of iOS 5, a few, or even all, please specifiy.  Thank you!

Well, I mean it is possible to downgrade your software, all you have to do is find the iOS version you're looking for online, and when the iPod is connected, (if you're running Windows like myself), shift click (Shift+Click) the 'update' button on the iPods main menu, and instead of just updating to the newest iOS, it will ask you to locate the (iOS) file that you want the iPod to run on, in Windows Explorer.
This allows you to find older iOS versions just in case something to the newest version (such as iOS 6) isn't to one's personal preference.
I was just wondering, because I know many people with iPhone 4S's and many of them seem to not like iOS 6, and I'm not too keen on it myself.  Since I will soon be getting an iPod Touch 5g (which naturally comes with iOS 6 preinstalled), I was just wondering if the hardware on this newest iPod would be able to support the software for iOS 5?  Y'know, just in case.

    Though this wasn't updated (not having the Ipod Touch 5) but seeing the Ipod Touch 4 having both AVRCP and A2DP, Ipod Touch 5 should also have those...

  • In the iPod touch 5th generation can I put a wifi card in it ? Like wifi Vodafone card like in the iPad 3G, In the iPod touch 5th generation can I put a wifi card in it ? Like wifi Vodafone card like in the iPad 3G

    In the iPod touch 5th generation can I put a wifi card like Vodafone wifi cards I put a wifi card in my iPad 3G and it works what about ipod ?

    Wi-fi card?
    The ipod has wi-fi bult in.
    Why would you need a wi-fi card?
    It sounds like you are  talking about a SIM card, which has nothing at all to do with wi-fi.  It is for cellular service from a wireless phone provider.  If this is what you mean, then no.  Ipods are not cell phones and cannot access cellular data.

  • If I pre-order the iPod touch 5th generation, do I have to pay it with credit card or can i pay it when i go get it on the store? if I pre order it, can i go pick it up form 1-3 of october, or it is not available?

    Hey Sierra, You can do just what you have stated. My question, what is your "other"? If it is over 1.5 GB you most likely have corrupt files. Doing a Restore to New, Factory restore should correct it. Just make sure you make a full backup of all information on your iPod to your computer before you restore, so you don't lose your stuff, contacts, videos, pictures, non-iTunes music, etc, use the cable and connect with your computer. Then, via cable, connect to your computer, run the Restore to new, don't use your backup. Treat this iPod as if it was your first one ever. When restore is done, set up and add what info you wish to install on this iPod. The music apps etc you purchased should be on your computer, if not you should be able to retrieve purchased apps and music from iTunes. Any music, videos, apps not purchased from iTunes will be lost to you if you do not save them to your computer or the cloud first. When your done, make a current Backup and you should good to go. Hope this helps. Good luck. Cheers.

    If "just" is less than 14 days, you can return your iPod to Apple for a full refund.

  • My iPod Touch 5th generation (running IOS 8.1.2)...

    My iPod Touch 5th generation (running IOS 8.1.2), when connected to my iMac (running OS X Yosemite) will charge, but is not regained, or for that matter even noticed by the iTunes application. The iPod will sync to dropbox when connected, but nothing else. On the device, it will ask if to "trust" the iMac, I naturally hit that it should, but still no change.

    See
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    - I would start with
    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
    - Then do the other actions of:

    paying special attention to item #5
    - New cable and different USB port
    - Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

  • When will the pice go down for the iPod touch 5th generation

    When will the iPod touch 5th generation lower its price

    apple pretty much keeps their prices set where they are. Sometimes you may see 'old' models being discounted a bit after a new one is released...but that's not universal. Sometimes it doesn't happen.
    As to when there will be an iPod 6....only Apple knows. And they ain't tellin. (not to mention that speculation about apple stuff is a forbidden topic so nothing anyone here can do)

  • Twice experienced an unusual problem with my iPod touch 5th generation running iOS 8.0: crashes and disables power up. HOME and POWER pressed together to reset.

    iPod touch 5th generation running iOS 8.0. iOS crashed twice, disabling power up. The only recovery was pressing and holding the home and power buttons together for several seconds. The iPod touch then went into restore mode. I've never experienced, heard or read of an iOS crash preventing normal power up: device has known battery charge, does not respond to pressing power button or connecting to AC charger.

    That happens some times. Try:
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes      
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    If still problem/it still keeps recurring, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
