How do I get the latest ios update on my iPod touch 2nd generation?
My iPod touch 2nd generation won't update past ios 4.2.1. I have tried many different times, but everytime I try, a message pops up saying that ios 4.2.1 is the highest operating system when I know that ios 6 has just come out. This is frustrating because since the operating system is still ios 4, it is very slow and crashes frequently. Since it is so slow, I have begun to use it less and less for certain things because it is so slow.
"My iPod touch 2nd generation won't update past ios 4.2.1. "
That is absultely correct.
" I have tried many different times, but everytime I try, a message pops up saying that ios 4.2.1 is the highest operating system"
That is also correct. Ios 4.2.1 is the latest available software for the ipod touch 2nd gen

How do you get the speck gemshell case off an ipod touch 5th generation
I am trying to get the speck gemshell case that I purchased along with the "new" ipod touch 5th generation. It seems like a solid piece of clear see-through piece of plastic and it will withstand lots of drops with the added "lips"on the front of the ipod touch (one reason why i got this case. The other reason was to have my red ipod seen by all who wish to look at it.) but my problem with it is that it seems "too solid". The case is hard to put on and REALLY hard to take off. I have read on some websites that you can take a credit card as a way of taking the case off but I want to figure out how to take it off without ruining my ipod or bending the case?
Contact the manufacturer

If you have a second-generation iPod, the last version of iOS it can run is iOS 4.2.1. If you have a 3rd or 4th generation iPod touch, see:

I purchased the newest software update for my ipod touch 1st generation and it is saying it is it will now begin download but the status bar doesn't even appear? How can I start the download?
Well first off you shouldn't have had to pay for a download (just an assumption from the word "purchased".
If you are trying to install iOS 5 on your iPod touch, it won't work they arent compatible. I suggest checking what version of software you are trying to install and posting it in this forum so people can have a better understanding. -
I lost my iTunes library on my pc when the hard drive crashed. None of the data on the drive was recoverable and I did not have a backup either locally or on the cloud. Much of the music is from old vinyl and podcasts which are no longer available.
How can I get the music that resides on my ipod nano (4th generation) back onto the new hard drive on my pc.
I have been reluctant to install iTunes on the new hard drive out of fear that I will lose all the contents on the ipod if I try to synch to the new hard drive.
Help!No backup is a huge mistake.
You can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:

If you have the iPod Touch 4th generation then i'm sorry to say that your out of luck. It can only be downloaded on iPod Touch 5th gen. If you have the 5th gen iPod Touch then you go to settings > general > (second one from the top) Software update. and click instal for the one that says iOS 7!

How do I get a iOS update for my iPod Touch 2nd gen.? Where's the love for us?
How come no updates for iOS for 2 gen iPod touch owners like me?
Where's the love for us?Did you think that your ipod would get software updates forever?
Really? This is noting new or unusual at all.
The older hardware in computers/ipods/iphones/televisions/dvd players/cars/etc does not support any and all new software that ever comes out.
Your ipod touch operates as it always has - with several updates from the original software. However, the newest software is not available for the 2nd gen. -

How do I sync photos from my computer to my IPod touch 2nd generation?
I can't find anything in the ITunes store that will allow me to sync photos from my computer to my 2nd generation IPod touch.
You don't go to the iTunes Store to sync photos, that is where you download and purchase content hence the name.
- select your iPod from the Sidebar
- select Photos at the top to the right of Summary
Now follow the article below:

I am trying to update my Ipad 1 but it is taking hours on the backup, what can I do to make this faster?
I'm thinking that you have a corrupt backup. You can try this if you want to give it a shot.
Without connecting the iPad to the computer, launch iTunes. Go to Edit>Preferences>Devices. See how many backups you have for the iPad. If you have multiple backups, delete all but one. Click on the backup in the window and then click on Delete.
Quit iTunes, connect the iPad and then try again. -
