Are you sure it's not 6.1.6? If it is, that is the latest iOS version that will work on a 4th generation iPod Touch. Later versions require a 5G iPod which has twice as much RAM.

How do I transfer the computer I sync with?

The speaker on my iPhone stopped working. I visited the local Apple store and they replaced it... I was very impressed, except for having to wait for 2 hours.
He told me to take it home do a restore. I took it home and half way thru the restore, my computer turned off by itself and the iPhone was stuck on a downloading screen.
I visited the Apple Store again. Another 2 hour wait, and they were able to put it into a mode that would allow me to restore.
I took it home and half way thru the restore, my computer turned off AGAIN and the phone got stuck AGAIN. So I found online how to press and hold the buttons while putting it in the cradle to force a restore. Unfortunately, it will not restore from the computer I originally activated the iPhone from.
So I looked online and saw I could copy files from the Apple directory to another computer and restore from there. I thought it had worked, but I cannot complete a sync yet.
I get error messages after 10-100 songs that the 'iPhone' disk could not be located, followed by another error message that 'Chris's iPhone' disk could not be located. I've tried rename 'iPhone' to 'Chris's iPhone' but everyone few syncs it changes back.
At one point, the sync overwrote all my iPhone specific bookmarks, so I am treading lightly so I don't loose anything else.
Tonight I downloaded 1.1.4, but haven't had time to see if it changed anything about this.
How do I safely relocate the association between the old computer and the new computer so I can get rid of the old computer?
Or where are the instructions I'm suppose to follow when they exchange a phone?

Thanks much, that's very helpful for step one (getting old phone onto new phone). Very clear.
However, I still have the problem of moving to the new computer. How do I move the sync to the new computer after the new phone is set up?

How do I change the computer I sync my I-Phone with?

I have an I-Phone 3GS and have changed from a PC platform to a Mac platform. I can't get my I-Phone to sync completely with my Mac. I'm afraid I'll lose the music on I-Tunes as well as some apps I have purchased. Any help here?

Copy everything from your old computer to the new one.
Open itunes, connect iphone, select what you want, sync.

HT1386 I have a new computer. I have copied Itunes library from an external hard drive. Itunes now tells me I cannot sync with my Ipod as it thinks the 20gb on the computer are different to the 20gb on my Ipod touch! What have I done wrong? How can I fix

How do you tell which computer you origionally sync the ipod touch with?

I went to do the 2.0 update for ipod touch but it says make sure you have the ipod connected with the computer you sync with. I sync with both my mac and laptop but I think they mean the origional one you started with. How do you tell which one?

Make it the one. You have the power!
What they want is to make sure you are not doing this somewhere that you may lose the ability to connect the iPod (work, friend's house, internet cafe, library) because there is a file that will be downloaded to the computer, and if you need to restore at some point, iTunes will need that file.

Then those are not the syncing computers. You can manage music among different computers.
What computer did you setup your iPod on and do updates on/?That is usually the syncing computer.

How can you tell which computer that is authorized as the master?

I have several computers that I have connected my iPhone to. How can I tell which computer I should connect to before updating the operating system? I don't want to loss data if I don't have to.

I am not that familiar with Apple and iTunes and was getting help from someone who said that I can plug my iPhone into my computers but that I would have to authorize the iPhone on each but the limit is 5.
This is not accurate.
You can authorize up to 5 computers with the same iTunes account. There is no device limit for the number of iPods, iPads, and iPhones that can be synced with the same iTunes library and iTunes account on the same computer.
An iPhone can be synced with an iTunes library on one computer only, and photos can be transferred from one computer only. When transferring iTunes content and photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first.
This is why I asked - you have connected your iPhone to each one of these computers for what?
I was not sure which computer I first used. Is there a simple way to check?
No, or I would have provided that with my first reply.
If you connect your iPhone to a "non-master" computer to install the update, you will be provided a warning.
How many computers are you talking about? If 5 or less, this should take you no more than 10 minutes to determine which computer you transferred music and photos from.

Try
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
Before you reinstall the Apple software, also remove iCloud vi Control Panel Remove programs. The reinstall the Apple programs
New cable and different USB port?
Runs this and see if the results help with determine the cause

I downloaded the new Pages and Numbers through my app store but when I open my old documents, it still tells me my 30 day trial is over. How do I get the computer to automatically recognize the new applications?

More information: I have a 3 year old MacBook and had been using "Microsoft for Mac" until last week when I took my MacBook in for some upgrades- including the operating system Lion. I have been unable to use the Word, Excel, etc. programs because they are not supported on the new operating system... and I already used my 30 day trial of iWork when we first purchased the computer. I decided to buy Pages and Numbers through the App Store icon. When I open the Pages and Numbers under my Applications, I can get them to work. However, when I open old documents saved on my computer, they go into the 'old' iWork messages of that my trial has expired. How do I get the computer to automatically recognize that I've purchased Pages and Numbers?

You need to delete the trial & then reinstall from the boxed DVD or the Mac App Store. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user.
Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his box.com account in for_iWork'09 > other_iWork'09 items > uninstall iWork '09.zip.

How can I tell the device is connected to itunes 12?

how can I tell the device is connected to itunes 12? I have Windows 8. I hear that the device is connected, but don't see the device to manage. Only thing that happens is on the phone it says Trust the computer.. I say Trust and nothing happens.

in ituens at the top where you see the small icons for Music, Movies, TV etc when your device is connected you will see a small icon representing your phone or ipad etc popup click that and it will show you the usual interface for backup and syncing.
if that doesnt happen, like it didint for me initially, you should close itunes fully via task manager if you know how to do this and start it again with the device unplugged then plug it in after itunes has finished loading.
Worst case scenario you nee to resatrt
