Can u upgrade an ipod

I am a new ipod user! I recently got a used 60GB ipod with color display. I thought it would play movies or podcasts. I guess I don't understand the hardware differences between the two. Can I upgrade my ipod to play movies and podcasts?

OK first off, this is the wrong forum. You posted this to the iPHOTO forum, not iPod forum.
Second, to answer your question directly, no you can not upgrade an ipod that doesn't have photo or video to now do so.
But if you want to figure out exactly which iPod you have, start here...

  • Can you upgrade a IPod 4G to a IPod 5g?

    Can you upgrade your iPod touch 4g to a 5g or anything? Thanks for your help!

    In the USA, Apple charges $149 for a refurbished one of those and $199 for a new one. If you choose to buy a secondhand one, use a site such as Amazon or eBay, or from a physical store which carries used Mac products, and ensure that the device doesn't have an activation lock set before buying it. If it seems far cheaper than Apple's refurbished price, it probably does.

    Hello! Not a problem, because you will get a Ipod Nano 1st generation as a replacement, not a new / latest generation.

  • I can't upgrade my iPod touch (from version 1.1.5)

    Hello there,
    Sorry for my english if it's bad.
    I have a problem with my very old ipod touch (i got about 2 years ago).
    Yesterday i decided that i wanted to download some games and applications to use on my Ipod touch, but after downloading one for free on the app store, i couldn't synch it on my ipod.
    I was told that i needed to upgrade my iPod. It had the 1.1.4 version.
    So i upgraded it, and it only upgraded it to the 1.1.5 version, which seems to be a very old version.
    I do have the latest version of iTunes (version 9.2) but next to the upgrade button, my iTunes tells me that the 1.1.5 version is the latest version, and that it will search for new versions only on the 18.07.2010.
    I would very much like to upgrade my ipod touch so that i can use some applications on it, but i just can't, apparently.
    Thank you so much for your help, i'm pretty bad with this stuff.
    ps: i have a macbook pro that i bought one year ago, so my computer isn't very old either...

    iPod Touch 2nd gen 32GB Mac OS 10.6.4
    Since I have upgraded to iOS4, I have run into the following problems:
    1: Safari crashes on many of my previously favorite websites. They start to load and whamo a back screen and then my home screen returns.
    2: Very slow to open most apps. Takes many times as long as previously.
    3: Slow wifi. I'm practically sitting on top of my modem and I am getting only one little rainbow bar showing. This happens at other wifi locations too, so it's not a modem incompatibility.
    I have erased all of my coockies, history and cache to little avail.
    I have restored my iPod from my Mac.
    I have erased and re bookmarked my sites.
    I'm only using up half of the RAM so its not that.
    What else can I do. I love the folders, but this isn't worth it.
    Thank you in advance.

  • How can i upgrade my ipod touch 4g to iOS 5???

    can i upgrade it on my laptop or do i have to consult any apple store???

    iOS 5 is not out yet, so you cannot update your iPod Touch with it. 
    When it does come out, you can do it from your own laptop.

  • Can i upgrade an iPod Touch 2 so I can skype?

    My sister just gave me an "old" iPod Touch she had lying around - i think it's 2nd generation - only to find I can't skype on it ("This app requires iOS 4.0").
    Can I upgrade to my device to iOS 4.0 at least so I can skype?

    Thanks for your quick response!
    I tried this - opened iTunes on my laptop, connected the iPod and all I see is the standard suggestion to download 10.5 (for Mac and PC).
    Should the prompt to update be on the computer or the iPod?
    What am I doing wrong? 

  • I can not upgrade my iPod G3 from iOS3 to iOS4

    Hi, I can not upgrade to the latest iOS. When trying to run the installation using itunes, it takes forever (24h and more) and does not finish. I have tried it several times. What can I do? Can anyone help?
    Cheers,
    Bernhard

    Since it is never finishing the backup, try moving the backup file to a safe place and try again.  The backup is located:
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

  • Can't upgrade to ipod v1.2

    Has any had problems with the error message: ipod cannot be upgraded becuase it contains files that are in use by another program? What is this, and why does it matter. The only other program that I use with my ipod is my Palm Address book. I have it sync with the ipod. I deleted the program that does the sync, but I still get the same message- not being able to upgrade to v1.2

    I have the exact same problem and can't find anything on the Internet about it. I can sync, but some videos won't because they are not supported.
    Additionally, I cannot restore because of the same error message. I have no idea how to fix it.

  • HT1414 My iPod has the IOS 5.1.1 OS and I can't download some apps because the operating system is too old. How can I upgrade my iPod without having to buy a new one?

    I have an iPod Touch that has the IOS 5.1.1 and I want to update my OS without having to buy a new device. How can I do this? I have logged into ITunes, backed up my device and it says my device is up to date, but now I can't reload my Facebook App because it says I need IOS 6.0 or higher. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    To more easily find compatible apps:
    iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
    Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.

  • Can I upgrade my ipod touch from ios6.1.5 to ios7 which i need to use bbc podcasts

    I want to be able to download BBC podcasts.
    My ipod touch has IOS6.1.5 but to access podcasts I need ios7.
    Is it possible to install IO7 and how do I do it?
    Thanks for any help.
    Bob

    iOS7 only runs on touch 5's, so unless you have a 5, you can't up grade to iOS 7, sorry.
