  • HT4539 how do you update iOS on ipod

    how do you updat operating system on ipod

    Connect the iPod to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPod to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPod as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPod by right-clicking the iPod 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
    Then start the update by selecting the iPod on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button

    What version of iOS that your iPod will be updated to will depend upon which generation it is - older iPod Touches can't update to more recent iOS versions.  If it's a recent model then it should update to iOS 6, in which case you will lose the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change.

  • How do you update software?

    My son recently purchased a used ipod touch from Gamestop.  In settings, General, there isn't anything about software updates or the current version.  How can he update this device to work with newer apps?

    yep just like niel said. if it is a 2nd gen it cant be updated to later versions of ios. 4.2.1 is the latest. but if it is a 3rd gen 32gb then you can update to ios 5. a 4th gen can update to ios 6.
    you need to connect the device to the computer and go from there.

  • HT4623 how do you update software when the phone does not have the software update option in settings

    how do i update the software on an iphone 3gs when the software update option is not in the settings on the phone?

    The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
    Also read the instructions from the section entitled "Update your device using iTunes" at the link below.

  • HT4972 How do you update an older iPod V4.2.1 to ios5.1

    I am trying to upgrade my ipod touch to ios V5 but am struggling.  The current version is 4.2.1.  I was told that it would update automatically when connected to ITunes but this is obviously not the case.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    I suspect you have a 2G iPOd. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1. See:
    Identifying iPod models
    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

  • How do you update software when there are multiple users with different (unknown) apple ID's?

    We are a college with different users borrowing 'loaner' Macbooks.
    several users with different ID's have installed software that is now tied to that Machines serial number, and cannot be updated or removed apparently. We are trying to update iPhoto for use with iBook author, but it was installed by an unknown user and cannot be removed.

    The only practical solution is to wipe and re-provision the units when they're returned.
