Have an ipod touch 2g, but can't upgrade to ios 4.2.1
I have an ipod touch 2g which is on ios 2.2.1 iTunes says this is the current version, but I know I can update to 4.2.1 I have tried contacting Apple help, but they have just referred me to articles that tell me to update via iTunes!!
Has anybody come across this or have any ideas what I can do to sort it out. Have now spent 2 days trying to sort this out & becoming a little frustrated.
Thank you
Well you can upgrade an 1G iPod too. But only to 3.1.3 and not to 4.2.1.
But you have to pay for the upgrade. Then you download it with iTunes to your iPod just like downloading a song.

Check this link for information how to make an upgrade.

I have an ipod touch 4th generation and i really want to get the 5th generation and I was wondering if i could upgrade instead of having to buy one for $300? And if i do upgrade will the new ipod come with the packaging (headphones,lightning cable) and how much would it cost to upgrade? please help!
Unfortunately, unless you actually work at Apple, you will have to purchase a new iPod at full retail price. Sorry.

My mom on has a samsung galaxy and I have an iPod touch 5 but for some reason I can't text her. Why not?
The iPod has no native texting capability. It can send/receive messages to other suitably equipped Apple devices Via iMessage. To text to non-Apple devices, you will need to download a text App from the App Store.

I have a ipod touch and i can only get a very lil bit of sound and its scrachy souding out of my head phones... sounds good if you dont use head phones??? Can anybody help??
Your MacBook Pro doesn't have HDMI output... it's DVI. For sound, you will need to use the headphone out/optical digital audio out port to the TV/stereo. As far as video goes, I'm confused as to what cable you're using but at one point you're converting DVI to HDMI.

I am trying to update the software on an Ipod Touch 3G but can't find software updates in the generral settings.
What is the firmware of the iPod touch you're updating right now? If it's not 5.x, then you cannot, because that was a primary feature of 5.0 (the mobile software updates). Then, you would have to update the software using your computer and iTunes

I have an IPod Touch and how do I upgrade the OS so I can download stuff that needs IOS 4 or 5 please?
Which iPod touch do you have? If you're not sure, take a look at this -> Identifying iPod models
This Apple article outlines the versions of iOS that will work on each iPod touch.
Notes:
iOS 4.2 is the latest version of iOS for iPod touch (2nd generation).
iOS 3.1.3 is the latest version of iOS for iPod touch (1st generation). If you are using an iPod touch (1st generation) with iOS 2.x or earlier, you can purchase iOS 3 from the iTunes Store. See this article for more information. -

I have an ipod touch 4. Can change it with the ipod touch 5?
I have an ipod touch 4. Can change it with the ipod touch 5? if yes then how much do i have to pay for it?
Apple will only give you a 10% recycling discount if you turn in an old iPod when you purchase a new one. Better off selling it yourself.

Hi...Just got a Ipod and in our house we have 3 ipod touch total. Can we put 3 ipods in itune?
Yes. When you connect your devices, iTunes knows which one is which so you can customize what does and does not get synched to each device.
The only caveat is each user needs to have their own unique Apple ID AND their own account on the computer so you can keep purchased apps and such separate...
By having separate computer accounts, each user has their own "space" to put stuff in. iTunes knows this and will make individual iTunes library folders for each user. -
I have an Ipod touch 6 and can't updated apps. When I click update, nothing happen. Any clue?
Thanks,There is no iPod Touch 6. The latest generation is iPod Touch 5. Perhaps you mean you have an iPod running iOS 6.1.6. If so, you have a 4th generation iPod which cannot update past 6.1.6. A 5th generation iPod can run iOS 7

I have an ipod touch and I can't put anything on the events there is no + sign in the corner like my sons ipod.
I'm guessing you are referencing the Calendar app.
Try resetting:
Hold the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears. No data will be lost. -
i have an ipod touch and just updated my software to ios 7.1.2. Now I get the message that my adapter, accessory does not support my device. Is there a new adapter that I need to buy that works with the ios 7.1.2?
This is not my problem. However, I think it may be related to an old speaker. I was using the 30 pin adapter for about a week after the upgrade to 7.1.2. But I think with the update the speaker won't work anymore. I will try with a new speaker system. Thank you for trying to assist.

I have the iPod Touch 3G but iTunes won't recognize it when I connect to my Windows 8 computer
So I have the iPod Touch 3G (5.1.1 version) and I had just recently updated my iTunes library to the 11.1.4 version. Ever since, every time I connect my iPod to my computer (I have Windows 8), my computer recognizes it but my iTunes does not. How can I fix this problem? I really hope this version of iTunes is not compatible with my ancient iPod because I really don't have money to go out and buy a newer iPod. It doesn't have to do with the amount of storage in it because I have the 32GB version and I have 16.8GB available. If anyone could help me out, I'd really appreciate it.
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Featurs appin the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

I have an ipod touch 2nd generation. I am thinking of upgrading so should I go for the latest ipod touch or for the ipad mini?
It all depends upon your uses and preferences. The iPod had a bigger screen and is physically bigger and has an option cellular radio.
