Error 1004 when upgrading to ipod touch 3.0

I recently bought my ipod touch 1st gen from a friend and have tried several times to download the 3.0 update. I even restored the ipod beforehand, tried several different credit cards, changed the Mrs to Ms on the information screen... It won't work. Why would it let me restore it with my AVG antivirus on but not let me upgrade it? Is it not basically doing the same thing only back-dating and not updating?
anyway I went ahead and disabled the AVG and turned my windows firewall completely off, and then re-entered my CC info, accepted the terms, and hit Buy, to no avail. Is there any way I can download something between 1.5 and 3.0? Maybe if it was partially updated it would accept the full newest update?
ipod touch 1st generation, 16gb, now fully restored to original specs
Dell Inspiron e1505 with Vista 32bit home premium, 40 gigs of free space.
All of my music is on my removable terrabyte, but it has had no problems uploading music previously.
iTunes 8.2.1
Help please!
I turned off my firewall, turned off AVG (all previous suggestions) and NOTHING. IF I try a different computer will I be able to re-sync to this one and keep the upgrade?

I had the same problem and solved it by just signing out and back in to the iTunes store. (Open iTunes, in the menu bar at the top click Store then scroll down to Sign Out then sign back in.) If this doesn't help, read the following thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2016045

Error (-1) when updating my Ipod Touch version 2.2.1?

I have tried a few of the suggestions on the Apple site. I have updated to the latest version of iTunes. Unfortunately I do not have another computer to try it out on. Not sure if there is anything else I can try, or if I'm just stuck with version 2.2.1???

Error 1 or -1

Error 8288 when upgrading my first gen Ipod Touch to IOS 3.1.

I am having some trouble trying to get IOS 3.1 on my first generation Ipod touch. I have the latest Itunes, I do not have any dvd burning software like Anydvd that can interfere, and I've tried it on two different computers with no avail. Any help is greatly appreciated.

msoviolist, I opened a ticket via their so called "Express Lane" support page, I assume it'll take a couple of emails before they decide to credit you for the download. I would suggest linking to these two threads in the correspondence, this is what I included in the message;

I upgraded my iPod Touch 4th Gen yesterday. Now it won't play music, which is the main thing I use it for. Over 11,000 songs [it's a 64GB model] -- will I actually have to restore the device and re-add all that music?

I upgraded my iPod Touch 4th Gen yesterday. Now it won't play music, which is the main thing I use it for. Over 11,000 songs [it's a 64GB model] -- will I actually have to restore the device and re-add all that music?
[Music files are still there, and I can play them on my computer directly from the iPod [just one track at a time] but not in the usual way, through headphones.]
On the Summary page of iTunes for the iPod, it shows 50-plus gigabytes of "Other" content and no music, which was not previously the case. I assume this is related to the problem.
I can bring up individual tracks on the iPod and see cover art, but cannot play the music.

iCloud is free, iTunes match is $25 a year.
I had the same problem and when I went to Settings I had 0 songs, even though they were obviously still there since I only had 15GB free on my 64GB device.
I decided to do a complete reset/restore of my 4th gen iPod Touch, Bad move! I've been messing with it for hours, and it simply won't restore--it keeps hanging on a black screen with an Apple logo and a progress bar at about 10%, sometimes it goes completely blank and tries again, with the same result. (I've posted my question/plea for help here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19735862 )
I'm ready to bang my head against the wall! I can put the device in recovery mode, connect to iTunes on my computer, and get it back to the setup screen, but when I go through the process again and try to do an iCloud backup I get the same reset/restore loop.
I could start from scratch, but I really, really, really don't want to go through all of my hundreds of apps, reinstall them one by one, etc. etc. etc.
I thought that once I started using iCloud, I didn't need to sync with iTunes anymore--guess I was wrong.

I have tried to upgrade my iPod touch , and cant even remember to which iOS , and it didnt respond with the upgrade and does the loading logo until the battery life is gone. I tried restarting it doesnt work. NEED HELP

I have upgraded my iPod touch and it didnt respond to the upgrade. Cant remember which iOS i was upgrading but when i try to switch it on the apple logo comes up but than it just goes to the loading logo until the battery life is gone. I have tried restarting it , that doesnt work. I need help i am lost without my ipod please help. Any ideas besides restarting it ?

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 another cable
- 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.
