How do I go about setting up my new 5th generation IPod in Windows 7 Premium

I'm trying to setup my iPod touch but having one problem one of the requirements is I need Service Pack 3. How do I go about upgrading to service pack 3 for windows 7?

Go to the control panel.  YOu should see an option for windows update. If you don't see it that way, look for the security part of your menu (there are different views and I don't have a Win 7 computer handy at the moment to see the exact how)
Go through the update process. Depending on your internet speed it could take a bit.
Once it's done, make sure your iTunes is up to date. YOu will need 11.1 for your iPod, especially if your iPod already has iOS7 on it.
Once your iTunes is up to date then you can connect your  iPod and go through the setup process.

  • Set up new 5th generation ipod but want to keep using old4th generation one

    I have just bought a beautiful new 5th gereration ipod as a gift for my partner, which I want to fill with the music from my library.
    The ipod is still untouched in its box. Can anyone please tell me how to set it up for the first time, so that my itunes recognises the new ipod, but after loading it with music I can keep using itunes with my old 4th generation ipod?
    Thanks!!

    Sorry, by saying it was untouched in its box I tried to describe in short that I had not done any kind of set up procedere with it. It's true, I took it out once, connected it to the computer, but nothing happened, it was not detected by the computer. I didn't think this was a problem, just thought this was normal and that I had to somehow 'set up' the ipod for the first time before I could load it with music. Now thanks to your help I know how it should have worked. I'll try the solutions offered in the article you gave me. Thanks!!

  • How can I get my new 5th generation iPod to connect to my Wi-Fi

    The Wi-fi signal shows up as strong but when I try to connect to Safari or talk to Siri, it dosen't work. When I go other places with my iPod, it connects fine. All my other electronics including a 2nd generation iPod have no problem connecting to the Wi-Fi. Also, I had a 5th generation iPod before my current one and it wouldn't connect eaither. What can I do?

    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • How do I change the format of my 5th Generation iPod from Windows to Mac

    How do I change the format of my 5th Gen iPod from a Windows format to the Mac?

    But this will delete all the songs I have? I have a lot of them on my iPod classic
    Yes.
    I want to transfer (well copy) all my songs from the iPod to itunes on the mac - and then have the itunes library as being placed on the external drive. The last part I think I know, but I can't work out how to copy music from my iPod
    See this older post from another forum member Zevoneer covering the different methods and software available to assist you with the task of copying content from your iPod back to your PC and into iTunes.
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2452022?start=0&tstart=0
    Then see here about backing your iTunes library onto an external hard drive.

  • How do I go about setting up my new wireless all-in-one Epson XP-215 printer to my MacBook Pro? The system is not automatically detecting the printer ad the furthest I get is "System" keychain user and pswd but I am a new user to Mac.

    I am a new user to Mac and trying to set up an Epson XP-215 All-in-One printer without any success. The Mac Book Pro is not recogising the Printer automatically and when following the instructions to add the printer, it gets as far as a display box for teh user and password for "System" Keychain but I am not sure what info to add there...
    The printer is meant to have a function calle dAir Print also that is meant to be used for Mac but I cannot figure out any of this! Why would the MacBook Pro not automatically pic up the printer? Please help...

    If you have not already done so, you should read the user manual that came w/the printer and/or contact Epson tech support.

  • How do I get a movie on DVD into my new 5th Generation ipod?

    I read up, and it seems the only way to get a DVD movie onto the 60 GB iPod is to buy Quicktime Pro. I wouldn't have a problem with this if I was just sure that a DVD format will convert well with this program. In fact I'm not ever sure how to transfer a full legnth DVD to my mac's hard drive.
    Thanks for you help guys!
    Michelle

    Before you go with Quicktime Pro, do a search. Others have had problems with the video converting but when putting on the iPod no sound.
    Since you have a Mac, alot are using a program called Handbrake. A quick search will give you the info you need.
    I'm a Windows person using a purchased program.

  • Does the iPad mini have a setting so it can be used with either 120 or 240 electrical current? If yes, how do you go about setting the desired input voltage? I will travel to Northern Europe and want to know if I will need a voltage converter.

    The iPad charger is dual voltage. You need only a plug adapter to be able to plug your US charger into a European wall outlet. A basic one costs about $2.00. - $6.00. Like this...

    Hey jtom234412,
    Thanks for the question. Based on the information you have provided, it sounds like your device is not detected in iTunes for Windows. The following resource may help resolve this issue:

    Furthermore, if your device is in recovery mode (displaying an iTunes symbol, with a plug), see the relevant information under Step 5.
    Thanks,

  • What is the provisioning feature in the settings under, general profile? It says something about "provisioning". What does that mean and what does it do?? (It's on my 5th generation iPod touch, black, iOS 6.1.3

    What is the provisioning feature in the settings under, general>profile? It says something about "provisioning". What does that mean and what does it do?? (It's on my 5th generation iPod touch, black, iOS 6.1.3

    A profile is used on iOS device to add specific settings and similar things to an iOS device.  Tryically, they are added when the iOS devices is controlled by a company or school.
    However, some apps install a profile. If your iPod is not controlled by a company or school then it seems an app added the profile. You can good the title if the profile and see if that gives any info.
