  • Cant update my iPod - unknown error - need tecnical help!

    I am using iTunes 7.0.2.16 (latest version), iPod 5th generation (software version 1.1.1), OS: Windows XP SP2.
    The problem is that i cant automatically update my iPod firmware to 1.2 version. When i click to "Update" i get unknown error message (number 23). The error message is not contain information about cause of error, only that its "unknown".
    I guess, its because my firmware is 1.1.1 and not 1.1.2 as its supposed to be, but i dont know.
    So i hope, that you can help me to solve it without restoring my iPod (it will be big trouble with my 3000 songs..).
    If someone knows where i can download 1.1.2 firmware to try with it first, pls give me the link.
    Thanks for attention!

    My Ipod/Itunes seems to have the same problem. Downloading other things doesn't seem to matter, but I can't download the update. It always says, could not connect to the iPod update server! It says to check my connection, but I'm obviously connected to the Internet...It does that when I try to restore, or update. Any thoughts?

  • Cant update my ipod. unknown error (-69)

    when i try to update my ipod, after a few songs are added i get this error:
    Attempting to copy the disk "" failed. an unknown error occured (-69)
    and then the updating stops. this always happens when there is only 4 gig on my ipod (and i have a 10 gig ipod!) so there is 6 i cant use now
    I have tried updating itunes, using the ipod updater, i even tried multiple times to completely reinstal the ipod. but still i get the error when i updated around 4 gig.

    I also have the same problem.
    I have a 20 gig ipod. I am trying to update the ipod to my library (about 1800 songs) and every time the ipod gets around half of them updated, I either get the error -69 message, or my computer completely freezes up.
    I've tried everything (5 r's, disabling anti-virus software, even just updating 50 songs at a time).
    Oh and my other 20 gig iPod updates fine, go figure.
    Someone Please help me!

    Hi i cant update mi ipod touch its saids that the version 4.2.1 its the current version any tip ? thanks

    if your ipod has only 8GB then it is an icompatible old model ( 2nd generation iPod ).
    IoS 4.2.1 on it indicates that it is a too old model.
    Only 3rd and 4th generation can be upgraded to iOS5.
