What model iPad and what iOS are you running? The max iOS for the iPad 1 is 5.1.1.
See
iOS 5: Updating your device to iOS 5 or Later
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
Tip - You may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. After you update to iOS 5.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

Got it. Thanks.
But now my radio stations, etc. have been moved to the "Settings" folder on my iPod. How do I move them to the home screen, so I can access the individual radio stations, In "Settings" all I see are the settings for the different radio groups (Corus, Bell Media, Rogers Media), niot the icons for the different raqdio stations..

I have an older Ipod touch with 4.2.1 and cannot be updated any further, how do I install apps on it now? so far every app I have tried says I need an updated IOS. This sounds like I now have an apple product paper weight.

This sounds like I now have an apple product paper weight unless I want to run out and buy the latest and greatest overpriced apple product.

Are you willing to buy a newer iPod? How about the 4g @ 16gb for $199* usd or the 5g @ 32gb for $299*.

How to update iOS 6 in IPOD 2nd

Please Help Me,
How to update iOS 6 in IPod 2nd generation , i cant any app download

You do not. The hardware in the 2G does not support higher than 4.2.1
To more easily find compatible apps:
iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

How do you update the 2nd generation ipod touch to get IOS 4.3?

My niece sold me her second generation ipod touch so I could give it to my five-year old for christmas. I was so excited to give it to him, until I tried to start loading apps. It kept saying that I needed IOS 4.3. How do I get that on this ipod? This was going to be his BIG gift because obviously I don't want to buy a five-year old a brand new ipod touch. I will be so upset and disappointed if I can't use this...

Sorry, the 2nd generation iPod Touch can not be upgraded beyond iOS 4.2.1.

How does one update iOS and what is iOS.. Thank you..

how do you update iOS. And what is that anyway. I had to update FaceTime in order to use it and now I cannot send any pictures from ipad camera. Thanks for any help..

"iOS" is the operating system on handheld Apple devices.
You can either update your device wirelessly from Settings > General > Software update or by connecting to a computer using iTunes. Make a backup to iCloud or iTunes before you do any update, so you can restore it, if something should go wrong. Also, make sure it is connected to a power source, if you update wirelessly.

How can I update iOS without losing my media?

Hey guys, how can I update iOS without losing my media?
I've been told to sign into iTunes on another computer, authorize the computer in iTunes, then sync my iDevice before updating iOS. When I attempted that I got a warning message from iTunes saying the content on my iDevice would be replaced with the content on the computer so I backed out. I don't have my computer with me and I'd really like to sync my iDevice with another computer so I can update my iDevice to iOS 5.
Thoughts?
Thanks.

How can i update ios7 for my ipod touch.

No.
As Apple said in June, iOS 7 is not compatible with the 4G iPod.
All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory (RAM). The 4G iPod only has 256 MB
