Cannot get Ipod Touch 8 GB to update to newer software

I have a 8 GB Ipod touch. The software version is currently 2.2.1. All of my apps will no longer sync to my Ipod because it says they require the Iphone 3.0 software update. I have tried to update my software several times, but it says I have the current version. What can I do?

Hello salchichaz,
It sounds like you have a 1G iPod Touch. If that is the case, see this Apple support document for information on how to upgrade to 3.1.

    If you mean that your iPod does not appear under Devices in iTunes see the following:

    Otherwise please provide additional information like what happens when you try to sync. Error messages?

  • Cannot get iPod touch going with Vista Ultimate

    iTunes gives me a message that the iPhone only works with 32 bit versions of XP or Vista. I have Vista Ultimate on my laptop, which is 32 bit.
    Does anyone have any suggestions. I cannot get this thing going....

    Well what does the system panel say under the control panel? Should tell you on label "System Type"
    64-Bit is not supported. Not sure why since iTunes knows the iPod is there. iTunes thinks its a iPhone instead though.

  • I have a Mac PC OSx, version 10.5 and cannot get Icloud even though I have downloaded all new software?     gh I have downloaded all available software.

    I have a Mac PC, OS X, 10.5.8  Version but cannot download ICloud and I was led to believe this version supports it.  I have downloaded all available software.  Does anyone have suggestions?  Just realized I need later version - - 10.7.5 or later.  How do I go about upgrading this operatin system?

    10.7 is no longer avaiable for immediate download. You need to purchase a download code, which will be delived by email in 1 to 3 business days. Using that code, you can download the software from the Mac App Store, and it will stay available for re-download from that Apple-ID.

    To get the Mac App Store, you need to purchase a Snow Leopard 10.6 Installer/Utilities DVD. This physical DVD will be shipped to you by conventional means. The software can be Installed and re-installed from the DVD.

  • HT201210 been trying to restore ipod touch for days after updating itunes. keep getting error #9. Tried it on 2 computers, with vista + XP. tried all the solutions posted. nothing is working. Thanks Apple. Didn't have this problem before updating itunes!

    Been trying to restore Ipod touch for days after updating Itunes. Error code #9. Stuck on restore screen. Tried all the solutions posted. Tried on 2 computers, Vista + XP. No device shown on computer. Thanks Apple! Didn't have this problem before update. How about rolling back your update?

    Error 9
    This error occurs when the device unexpectedly loses its USB connection with iTunes. This can occur if you manually disconnect the device during the restore process. You can resolve this issue by using USB troubleshooting, using a different Dock Connector or Lightning Connector to USB cable, trying another USB port, restoring on another computer, or by eliminating conflicts from third-party security software.

  • I just installed the latest version of iTunes to get the updates and new software on my iPod but it hasn't updated my iPod or put any of the new software on there either.  How to I get the software to sync onto my iPod?

    Are you sure it's not 6.1.6?  If it is, that is the latest iOS version that will work on a 4th generation iPod Touch.  Later versions require a 5G iPod which has twice as much RAM.

    To update

    iTunes 10 for Windows: Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    A 1G iPod can go to iOS 3.1.3
    A 2G to 4.2.1. Requires iTunes version 10.X. That requires a Mac with OSX 10.5.8 or later. With 1OSX 10.4.11 you can only go to iTunes 9.X which gets you as high as iOS 4.1

  • IPod Touch 3 won't update apps

    iPod Touch 3 won't update apps. When I respond to the notice of an available update, the icon dims and a "waiting" message appears under it. It will hang like that until I delete it and reinstall the new app. I had another problem that has been resolved when I tried to get more episodes of a podcast, I ended up with 11 of them in the queue that wouldn't ever finish. They too would just hang there. I had to delete them all and get them through iTunes. I don't know how to upgrade the apps from iTunes though. Why is this happening just since I upgraded to ios 5.0.1?

    If We Update 2nd Gen Ipod Touch From 3.1.3 To Higher Level WilL It Slow my iPod  :/
    I suppose that's debatable.
    My iPod does ocassionaly take a few seconds to carry out a command, but since it is such a powerful device, capable of so much, I'm prepared to wait two extra seconds.
    (I have 2nd generation iPod Touch with iOS 4.2.1 on it.)
    By the way, since your question has no connection to the one asked by the original poster, it would have been far wiser for you to create your own thread. That way, you are actually more likely to get responsess to your question.

  • When I got the prompt to update my iPod Touch 4th generation, the update claimed to have over 200 new features including Siri. Is there going to be another update that would make this a true statement?

  • My ipod touch was in an update and froze.  I tried to restore and an apple just stays on front and the screen stays white

    My Ipod touch was in an update and froze.  It shows a blank screen and sometimes shows an apple.  Now it will not restore.   What do I do?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
