How do i update my software on ipod touch 2nd generation

I am having trouble updating software any suggestions?

The 2G iPod can ony go as high as iOS 4.2.1.
To get there you need iTunes 10 or later on the computer and you update via iTunes.

  • How do i update my software on ipod touch 1st gen

    I found my old iPod Touch first generation which did not work anymore.  I traded it at the apple store for a reconditioned iPod Touch 1st generation but i can't add apps to it.  This is for my 4 year old so I need to get it working.  I also can't find a way to update the operating software only os 1.1.5.  I'm really disappointed because no one even really helped me at the apple store!

    Click here and install the software.

  • Software for ipod touch 2nd generation

    i cant seem to download games it says i need ios software and im new to this can someone help pls

    Your ipod cannot update to the newest ios,
    They have done this so people will have to buy new devices to play the newest games.
    If you want to play the newest games you have the buy an ipod 4g or 5g.
    Your ipod cannot run higher than ios 4.2.1
    The newest ios is ios 6.2.1
    But this is not available for your ipod 2g

  • My iPod touch 2nd generation forced a software update to apply to my ipod via itunes. what effect did this update have on my ipod software, as i still cannot download some apps?

    My iPod touch 2nd generation forced a software update to apply to my ipod via itunes. what effect did this update have on my ipod software, as i still cannot download some apps?
    I would appreciate your support to help me figure out if this problem is solvable.
    The error comes about whilst trying to download certain apps from the app store, including CSR Racing which when i tap on install a message box pops up saying "This App Is Incompatible With This iPod touch", another time for a different app it came up with a message saying "This app requires OpenGL ES 2.0 graphics capability.
    Main questions:
    What was achieved from the latest forces iPod touch 2g update (17/07/2012)?
    solvable problem(s)?
    Will i need to buy a more recent model of iPod touch if this isnt fixable?
    ps. My iPod has lasted me 3 years so far so i am not suprised, still in good nick!
    thanks, Sim x

    i saw something on itunes just a moment ago saying iPod 1g can download 3.1 update for £2.99, will this help with the compatability of the csr racing app at all with that individual problem? |http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2052] (html for this)
    i didnt think graphics could change via software updates

  • 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 can i update io7 for my ipod touch\

    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

  • HT2052 iOS Software Update for iPod touch (2nd generation)

    I am not able to use previous apps on my iPod touch 2nd generation or even install new apps cause of this issue. I find it very messed up that Apple is inputting these restrictions, because they want people to buy the latest versions of their gadgets. Not everyone finds it necessary to buy every new version of every technology or even have the money to do so. It is just really disappointing...

    There is nothing unusual about this at all.
    As with any tv, computer, dvd player, car,etc the older hardware is simply not capable of running the latest software.
    This is normal.
    The second gen was released over 4 years ago.
