Continually prompted to update 30 GB Color iPod to 1.2 software

Every time I start iTunes, I get a message that a new version 1.2 is available. I then choose to download it, run setup, and that installs iTunes 6. I restart, then launch iTunes, and the process repeats.
I can synch,and have done so multiple times. I have tried to reset my unit by following the instructions, and it simply will not reset, after many, many attempts. Any help would be appreciated.

The problem was Apples software. The new software updates the Ipod just as it should, except for the stinking part about having to have an A/C charger. Again, the issue was due only to a problem with the previous version of the Ipod Updater. It would not work, and the new version does. Thanks, Apple. Thanks for nothing.

How to do a software update on an ipod touch

I need to figure out how to do a software update on an ipod touch. No software update button like my iPhone 4

To update
The Settings>General>Software Update comes with iOS 5 and later.
Connect the iPod to your computer and update via iTunes as far as your iPod model allows

A 1G iPod can go to iOS 2.2 via iTunes and iOS 3.1.3 via
Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)
A 2G to 4.2.1. Requires iTunes version 10.X. If a Mac it requires OSX 10.5.8 or later. With OSX 10.4.11 you can only go to iTunes 9.X which gets you as high as iOS 4.1
A 3G to 5.1.1 Requires iTunes version 10.5 or later
A 4G to 6 Requires iTunes version 10.7 or later. For a Mac, that requires a Mac with OSX 10.6.8 or later

Did you try removing and reinstalling all the Apple software using:

Do I have to wait to be prompted to update my iPod Touch, or can I do it manually?

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?

No prompt to update when Flash Player Settings Manager is set to check for updates automatically

My understading of http://forums.adobe.com/message/3562892#3562892 (March 2011) is that when an outdated version of the Player is used on Windows, the prompt to update should occur after the next restart of the operating system.
So, when http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ in Safari for Windows shows an outdated version 10.x of the Player:
I restart Windows
I log on
I wait a few minutes.
Problem
Usually, no matter how long I wait, there is no prompt to update; Flash Player Settings Manager continues to show an outdated plug-in alongside a greater version of the ActiveX item.
I see this problem with multiple computers running Windows XP and Windows 7.
Any suggestions?

Flash Player checks for updates every 7 days. The NCP doesn’t change this. Where the user in that post is getting confused is that only after Flash Player detected an update (on average 3.5 days after a new version is released), the dialog will appear after a restart.

Installed latest update, and now ipod touch won't work

Hello, I clicked on the download and install option for the latest update to my ipod touch. I think it was 2.2.1, but I'm not 100% sure. Anyway, now I have to hold the power button down several seconds, and I see the apple logo, and then the itunes icon with the USB plug which indicates I need to connect to itunes. When I plug it in to the pc, I get prompted that I have installed new hardware and need to install the device drivers. It is not recognized by itunes or my pc. Please help!!

Hello, all, my ipod touch is now working. Here's what happened...I called the tech support line and started going through the automated stuff. It started me with the reset which I had done numerous time. It then mentioned trying a different USB port. I figured it was a waste of time, but then I decided what the heck, so I tried the other usb port on the front of my pc. When I did this, it recognized the ipod in ituned and gave me a mssg that it needed to be restored. I clicked on the restore link, and minutes later it gave me an error message on the restore, and the ipod showed the apple on the sreen instead of the itunes logo with the usb cord. I then tried it back in the original usb port, and received the same windows prompt to try to install drivers that I had been getting all along. I put it back in the second USB port, and got the restore message again with it being recognized in itunes. This time it successfully completed the restore. I know it sounds simple, but if you have not tried a different USB port, be sure you do. Maybe the download jacked up my USB port? Anyway, I'm working again with the 2.2.1 download. Good luck to all!!

HELP!!! itunes wont update songs to ipod

basically as the topic says im having trouble with itunes and my ipod Video , the problem is that i connect my ipod to my computer ,itunes recognizes my ipod and says its updating songs but it doesnt and after a minute or so it says "Itunes has encountered an error" and closes down.
Any idea on how to solve this problem ??
any help will be appreciated
Windows XP

okay, we'd better try enlisting some additional technical help then.
we'll get a crash log from itunes, and send it to so someone who can interpret crash logs. (it may take a few days before you get a response.)
Typically, you'll need to configure Dr. Watson on your PC in order to generate crash logs. Windows start menu -> Run. Type in "cmd". Hit return. At the prompt in the command line window that comes up, type in
drwtsn32 -i
And hit return.
This will create crash logs in Documents And Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr Watson\. There'll usually be a file in here called "drwtsn32.log"
prior to collecting the itunes crash log, delete any existing crash logs in there. (we want to make sure we send the correct crash log.)
generate the crash, collect the crash log, and send it to this email address
in the email:
(1) state the precise version number of itunes that you're using, the version number of your ipod updater, the software version on your ipod, and the model of ipod you're getting the crash with:
iPod: How to find software version
Identifying different iPod models
(2) include the URL to this thread so that the person who gets the email has some context, but also give as much information about the context of the crashing as you can.

Is this an iPhone or iPad question? You posted in the iPad forum.
See
iOS 5: Updating your device to iOS 5
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
Tip - You may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. After you update to iOS 5.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

I changed my Exchange password in accounts but Notes continually prompts me to enter the new password. How do I fix that?

I recently upgraded to Mavericks. I also recently changed my Exchange password. I went into System Preferences > Accounts and updated the Exchange password. Mail works fine. Notes however, continually prompts me to enter my password every 10 seconds. What do I do to fix it?

when you go to system preferences>internet accounts and then choose your exchange account, is "Notes" checked?

Maybe:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

Then try restoring on another computer.
Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Adobe Reader XI keeps prompting to update to version 11.0.3

Adobe Reader XI keeps prompting to update to version 11.0.3 even though the installed version is already 11.0.3.
How can I stop this unnecessary update prompting occurring?

Thanks for the response Stacy and Bill.
The link to disable updates is giving a 404 error and if I go to the Knowledgebase link and search for “disable automatic updates | acrobat, reader” I just get links to forum threads.
I have attached a snip of my Check for updates preference. I don’t want to go for the no notification option and I don’t trust the auto download options given that I keep getting so many notifications that the same update is available as the version I have: I fear that would simply continuously download the same update over and over.
I’ll try the link you gave me again later to see if I can reach that page.
Thanks again,
Mike

Updating and Restoring Ipod

When I connect my IPod (color display) to my computer, ITunes recognizes it only if Norton AntiVirus is turned off. Display says there is an available update for the IPod, but when I try to install it I getan error message "Error 1415 -IPod cannot be updated or restored". Can anyone help?

You actually don't need to update your ipod, and the same thing happened to me. Mine finally did it when I restored it, but the update didn't seem to change anything...

Unable to stop Flashplayer 11.5 from prompting for update

Hi, I support about 3000 machines worldwide. We use Windows 7 x64, with IE10. In my base image I Installed Flashplayer ActiveX 11.5.502.146, using the full EXE installer and the switches -install -au2 (i do not want any updates done or users to get any prompts for updates). The MMS.cfg created using these switches shows 2 lines:
AutoUpdateDisable=1
SilentAutoUpdateEnable=0
and is located in the x64 path c:\windows\syswow64\macromed\flash
In the Flash Player settings manager, the advanced tab shows the radio button selection "Never check for updates (not recommended) is selected (this is greyed out because all of our users run under standard user permissions). Installation runs fine and the product works fine in IE, the problem I have is that my users are still prompted by the Update Adobe Flashplayer message on a weekly basis.
I looked at the admin guide for 11.5, and I believe my settings are right. Why am I still getting this prompt? Does mms.cfg have to be in the x86 path as well? Is there something with standard user rights as it relates to adobe updates? Should I install this from the MSI?
I can't update to 11.7 right now as we are getting ready to start rolling out my image and don't want to make changes at this time. I'm looking for any input on what I may be doing wrong that I continue to see update prompts. Thanks in advance for any information, and I'd be happy to provide additional info if I left out something.
