Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem

How do I fix updates in iPod Touch 4th generation?

I know I cannot update my iPod Touch to iOS 7.
The App Store icon shows that there are three updates available, but when I go to the update page there are none shown. If I look at all updates I notice there are three apps in the list that show as needing an update. When I click on any of these apps I get a popup screen that tells me the update doesn't apply to version 6.1.3.
I'm fine with that, but I would like to see the updates not show up on the App Store icon if they cannot be installed in 6.1.3.
Is Apple trying to tell me I should retire my three-year-old iPod Touch?
Bill

That's because there is a bug in iOS 6.1.3 that puts the notification badge on the App Store icon when there is an update available even if that update is only compatible with iOS 7. Therefore, you don't see the app under Updates because it is not compatible with your iOS version, but the bug still causes the notification badge. If you leave it on the Updates page for a little while, the badge will go away. But it will reappear after a few hours
The only thing to do is to report it as a bug to Apple using http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipodtouch.html . Maybe if enough of us do this, they will fix it.

How can I fix a frozen iPod touch 4th generation?

I tried to put my pass code in and it frozen and wouldn't unlock. The screen then went to the apple logo screen for five minutes. From the apple logo screen then went to a white screen with colorful vertical lines on the screen. It's now been on this last screen for thirty minutes. I don't really want to replace it or bring it to an apple store because the nearest store is over two hours away. I've tried to press the power and home button and I've held the power button down for five minutes with no results.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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.

I've had this problem from about two weeks and I forgot about it, but today I wanted to play on it and remembered that it's not working, I've tried connecting it to iTunes via my laptop but I'm not to sure how to update it because I thought that might fix it, but no luck. I've tried the trick where you hold the lock and home button but nothing happened apart from it just went back to the apple logo and then to the frozen loading symbol/wheel. I need help!

I have an Ipod touch 4th generation 8gb and it comes on but does not go past the apple logo

I have an ipod touch 4th generation 8gb and it comes on but does not go past the apple logo. What do I need to do?

This problem happened to me a month ago. The way I used to fix it:
1. Go it DFU Mode. For going into that, check this page.
2. Connect your iPod to your PC which has iTunes and iTunes will detect your iPod in recovery mode.
3. Press Shift + Restore if you have the .ipsw firmware file downloaded on your windows PC or just click Restore and follow the instructions to download the firmware file.
4. Wait and finally you're done!
