How do you upgrade software on ipod touch i am trying to download games to it.

How do i upgrade i pod touch so i can play games.

My guess is that you have a first generation iPod Touch.  Yu can go as high as iOS 3.1.3 for that iPod.  That is a paid update and you can get it here:
Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)
If you do not have a 1G ipod, please tell us what model iPod yu have.  See the following:

And what computer OS and version you have and just what games you want to use.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

    ALl we can say her in this Apple forum s to restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPOd.  Yu can try placing the iPod in recovery mode. For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    Otherwise you will have to go to elsewhere.  Jailbreaking voids the warranty and Apple will no longer help.

    I have a new iPod Touch and am trying to download photos for the first time.  Both iPhoto & Image Capture recognize the device but don't seem to recognize the photos, or at least I can't import them.  Nothing happens when I click on anything in either.

    If you manually open iPhoto do you not see the photos?
    Maybe here:

    Yu are trying to impoort photos taken by or saved to the iPod, right? If the photos were synced to the iPod then iPhot does not work.

  • How can you tell if an iPod touch has the new apps?

    Having seen the updates to the ipod Touch I'm finally ready to buy one. From the keynote I gather that new units shipping from the factory after 15 Jan have the new software, old units do not and, unusually for apple, even if you buy an old software unit after the announcement, you don't get the software for free. Worse still, I'm in one of those countries they sell the touch, but don't have an iTunes store, so if I buy an old one, I'm stuck with it, cannot upgrade.
    Is there any way to tell from the box which version you have, change in part number, anything? I'm sure they aren't doing the M$ sticker approach "now with 1.1.3 and lots of new apps". The return policy out here in Singapore is basically you can't, so I need to figure out in the store if the box I'm buying is new, or old, and I have no clue at all how much stock is left out there.
    Any suggestions?

    Hello, 
    If you're going to buy in a real shop then why not have the retailer open the box for you. Especially if they don't do returns - that's a must.
    The next suggestion is a little more hit-and-miss but the fourth and fifth digits of the Serial Number are the week of production. If you get a week 02 or later it should be okay. Perhaps someone with a brand new one could confirm.

  • How do you fix a forzen ipod touch screen?

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
