Having problems trying to upgrade to new OS (2.2.1 to 3 or higher)

Hello,
i have not used my ipod for a while, and today i wanted to update it to newer os, i know clicking on "check for update" it is supposed to resolve the issue, but when i do that it just says "2.2.1 is the newest version available". I did wipe out my ipod numerous times trying to upgrade. I did restore backups etc...
It is an ipod touch second gen with wifi etc... How do i do that manually?? please help.

Then are you certain that you have a 2nd generation Touch? (the one with the volume button on the side) If you actually have a 1st gen Touch then iTunes will tell you that 2.2.1 is the latest version, but there is a legitimate way to get 3.1.3 from Apple, see this thread:

  • Annoying Problem Trying to Upgrade to new iTunes

    When I try to install the new version of iTunes, I will reach the step where quicktime and itunes is installing with the status bar...and I get an error message saying there is a problem with my windows installer package, that I am missing a program required and need to contact my vendor or service provider....anyone know wuts up?

    I know exactly which problem he is having. I need to fix the same one...First it brings you to a message that says,
    "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is not available.Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package 'iTunes.msi' in the box below."
    when you click OK it brings up this message,
    "The path 'C:\Program Files\Apple Software Update\Packages/iTunes.msi' cannot be found. Verify that you have access to this location and try again, or try to find the installation package 'iTunes.msi' from a folder in which you can install the product iTunes."

  • I am having problems trying to install the new LR 5.4 update

    I have tried three times to install LR 5.4 and failed.  At one point, I lost my LR,5.3 and had to reinstall it.  Thank goodness that worked.  How do I install LR 5.4?

    Goldenlightdigital I would recommend reviewing your installation log files to discover the error.  Please see Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cc.html for information on how to locate and interpret your installation log files.  You are welcome to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion.

  • Problems trying to upgrade from Solaris 10 update 4 to update 8

    Hello,
    I am having problems trying to upgrade a system from update 4 to update 8. I have broken all the mirrors and everything is now setup off of one disk, yet I do not get the upgrade option when I boot from the CDROM. Anybody have any ideas?
    It is a pretty basic system and I do not understand why it will not let me upgrade.
    Thanks for your help,
    Gary

    If you boot your system from the CD-Rom, you can test its upgradability by performing the following steps:
    create a file named for example /tmp/pf_profile, which contains:
    install_type  upgrade
    root_device   /dev/dsk/<your root slice>The run the pfinstall program on it:
    /usr/sbin/install.d/pfinstall -D /tmp/pf_profile
    .. with a bit of luck that should validate your installation and report any potential problems which might cause this.
    Also, have you had a look on the following thread?

    I have the new iPad3 with Verizon.  I am constantly having problems trying to connect to 3G.  I had no problems like this with my older iPad and AT&T as the carrier.  In fact, I find that if I cannot connect via Verizon, I can pick up my original iPad and connect right away !  Anyone else having this problem?

    I fixed the problem. Sorry apple for wondering if it was on your end.

  • Anyone else having problems with popups since the new security upgrade? can't get rid of them

    anyone else having problems with popups since the new security upgrade? can't get rid of them

    You may have inadvertently installed adware. You do not need to download or install anything to fix it. It ought not to be related to any Apple security update.
    For a description of how this may have occurred, how to avoid it in the future, and for Apple's recommended actions read How to install adware. Apple's instructions are linked in the Recovery Procedure near the end of that document. Read and follow them carefully. Pay particular attention to the easily overlooked passages directing you to restart your Mac when required.

  • Having problems trying to get my security question and answer sent to my email and it is not showing  up

    having problems trying to get my security question and answer sent to my email and it is not showing  up

    Do you mean that the reset link won't show on your account or that the email doesn't arrive on your rescue email address ?
    The reset link will only show if you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions), or you aren't receiving the email to it (you've checked the spam folder on the account and tried clicking the reset link again) then you will need to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down this page to add a rescue email address for potential future use : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312

    I've resolved my problem now.  It wasn't iphoto: preferences:@ that I needed but iphoto:preferences:general where there is the option to choose email for sending photos.  Can't believe I missed that before.

    Try This...
    Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

    If no joy...
    Reset all settings
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
    This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.

  • I tried to upgrade the new version for i pad mini but when downloading it just went off and told me to connect it to i tunes, so i did and now it says i need to restore it. Does that mean I will lose everything in my i pad?

    In other words, the upgrade process did not go altogether well and the device has lost all its contents. When you plug it in, they will be restored from the backup.

  • I am having a problem trying to get the new version of itunes to download correctly to my laptop. I have updated my ipad to the new ios 7, and windows is showing that it has been downloaded but when I connect my ipad, it is saying I have to download itune

    I really need HELP!!! I have a laptop that runs with windows vista, and I have been having issues trying to get it to download the new version of itunes that would be compatible to the new version of ios 7 that I have already updated on my ipad. I have downloaded this three times, it shows that the download is complete, but when I connect my ipad to my laptop it is still telling me that I have to download the new version again and it will not sync with my ipad until I do. Does anyone else have this issue and can anyone help me figure out how to correct it? I would be most grateful!!
