Dear apple why wont you let itouch 4th gen have ios 7?

I think it would be smart of apple to allow a version of ios7 for those of its millions of costumers that have an i touch 4th generation. even if you had to charge $20 or something to do the upgrade.

Not enough RAM/memory
As Apple announced in June, iOS 7 is not compatible with the 4G iPod touch
All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory (RAM). The 4G iPod only has 256 MB

  • Why is my ipod touch 4th gen with ios 6 only have sound in the speakers but not when I plug my headphones in

    My new ipod touch 4th gen with ios 6 wont play soun in the headphones, but only through the speaker when my head phones are unplugged

    - You do have the volume set all the way up?
    - Have you tried another pair of headphones/do the headphone work in other devices?
    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the headphone plug a dozen times or so.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. It seems yo have a hardware problem, likely a bad headphone jack.

  • Is Apple ever going to let iPod 4th generations get IOS 7?

    I really like IOS 7 and I wanna know if there will be an IOS 7 update for iPods 4th gen. Itd be pretty cool to have it.

    Not likely at all.  Since the iPod Touch 4th generation has less RAM to run the iOS and apps in, it's hardware is not up to the task of running iOS 7.  I cannot see Apple making a crippled version of iOS 7 just to support older devices who's hardware does not meet the minimum requirements for the current iOS release.

  • Why wont you update iPod Touch 2g to iOS 5?!

    Apple, i have an iPod touch 2g and i was wondering hwhen you will EVER update the iPod touch 2g (or all the other generations) higher?

    It will very likely never be updated.  This is completely normal in every way.
    Hardware ( computers/tvs/dvd players/any other device that runs software) eventually cannot handle the newest software updates. This happens all the time with all products.
    BTW, you are not addressing Apple here at all. We are all ipod users just like you.

  • Itouch 4th gen wont turn off -___- help!

    just bought an itouch 4th gen and it wont turn off. i just updated it too. what should 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 iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • ITouch 4th gen. wont turn on at all, after already being used.

    So i am 15 and i got my brand new 32g iTouch 4th gen for Christmas. Iv had past iPod's so i already knew how to add songs, and what not. My songs are already on the iPod and everything has been working great. I was just on the internet showing my mom this storage bin on kmart, after that i closed down the internet, and pressed the lock button at the top. I then wanted to show her this picture on my lock screen, so i went to turn it on/unlock it, and nothing worked! I tried pressing the lock button, and the home button. I also tried holding each. I also tried connecting it to my computer to see if it would work. It did not. Its stuck on a black screen. Please help!

    Ok i fixed it!! I texted my best friend Ivan. (: You hold down both the lock and home button. As soon as the apple pops up, let go. (or else your data will be erased) then, i let it do its own thing for about 30 seconds and it turned on! yay!(:

  • I uploaded the giftcard money to my itunes account. and now when i try and buy a song it keeps saying that it has to charge my card. why wont it let me use the giftcard money? how can i fix this?

    i put money to my itunes account. and now when i try and buy a song it keeps saying that it has to charge my card. why wont it let me use the giftcard money? how can i fix this?

    If you still have your old card listed on your account then try selecting the 'none' option and remove it and then try entering the card's details from scratch. If that doesn't work then what is the full error message that you are getting, and the card is registered to the same name and address (including format and spacing) that you have on your iTunes account ?

  • My itouch 4th gen refuses to switch off and i am unable to change the volume.  Can you help?

    - Have you tried resetting the iPOd:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next connec the iPod to its syncing computer and try to restore the iPod.
    - The if still same. place the iPod in recovery mode and then try to restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:

  • HT201386 If iPhoto is no more usable why did you let me buy it few month ago ?? Good job !

    If iPhoto is no more usable why did you let me buy it few month ago on my iPhone  ?? Good job !

    That is frustrating. You are right. The new Photos.app is not yet a sufficient substitute iPhoto.
    And there was no clear warning with the upgrade to iOS that iPhoto would no longer work. Only after upgrading to iOS 8 could we find out, that iPhoto was gone.
    In your case it may be too late now to downgrade back to iOS 7. It was possible right after the release of iOS 8, but by now Apple stopped signing the firmware, so you will find no trustworthy installers.
    I think the best route is to send feedback to the developers, so the next Photos releases will bring back more of the advanced, missing iPhoto features.  Apple brought already the Camera Roll back to Photos.

  • Apple why did you take the Sites folder with my website in it? Nobody helps!

    Since upgrading to Mavericks I lost my local website folder that used to be in the Sites folder!
    Error: Can't connect, check your info! Oh Apple why did you take it? "H E L P  P L E A S E!"

    Thank you Barney-15E
    I have no clue why this is or why I am getting this error in Mavericks. All I have is a local website folder in the Sites folder using Dreamweaver CS4 to update my files, working perfect on my other drive running 10.6.8 . Why I cant update and get the error above is the reason I am posting here. (and several other spots)
    You said:
    "First off, FTP is disabled in Mavericks, which is why you likely cannot FTP into your local Mac--why are you ftp'ing to the Mac you are working on?"
    You said:
    "Your Sites folder is in your Home folder. However, if you created it somewhere else, you'll have to figure that out."
    When I say my Sites folder is not in my Home folder you can bank on it. No I never changed any folders in there.

  • Why wont it let me add my music on my ipod to itunes on my new laptop that my iphone 4s is snyced with?

    Why wont it let me add my music from my old itunes account from my old desktop computer thats on my ipod to my new itunes on my laptop that my iphone 4s is synced too?

    Is it the same iTunes account or different?  There really is no reason that they should be different if the only thing that changed is the computer.
    The iDevice is not a backup device, copy the content from the old computer to the new computer.
    IF there really are two different iTunes accounts, the new computer will need to be authorized for the old account.

  • Itouch 4th gen white screen after replacement

    - 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. However, they may refuse to even look at tit since you worked on the iPod yourself. It could be that you broke a ribbon cable of did some other damage when replacing the screen, the screen was defective or there was other damage besides the screen, like the logic board.
