You're welcome. To double check that you have a 1st gen unit, check the model number on the back. If it is A1213, it is indeed a 1st generation.

  • How to upgrade ipod touch 4th generation ios

    I have a 4th gen. iPod Touch (bought for Christmas last year) and just got my kids Touches for Christmas this year.  Under Settings/General, the kids' Touches have an option for Software Update, but on last year's Touch, there is no such option.  It has version 4.1 but my kids just upgraded to 5.0.1.  How do I upgrade to the new iOS on last year's Touch if there is no Software Update option under Settings?

  • I can't upgrade ipod touch from  ios4.0 to 4.0.1

    hello, I have a 3G ipod touch with ios4.0, but I can not upgrade to 4.0.1.
    I have the latest version of itunes (9.2.1.4) and when I do the update software tells me that the current version (4.0) is the latest available for my ipod.
    *what I can do?*

    The iOS 4.0.1 Software is for the iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, and iPhone 3G.
    The update improves the formula to determine how many bars of signal strength to display on.

  • Upgrade iPod touch from 3.1.3 to 4.2

    Hey everyone!
    Sorry this is my first post here, and I'm not super computer savvy, so pardon me if I'm a little slow at figuring this out.
    I'd like to update my ipod touch to the newest software, however, reading around the forums I heard it deletes the music off of the ipod.  The songs I have on the ipod are on two seperate computers, just because when I first got the ipod I was living with my parents, so there are songs on their computer that I don't have on my home computer.  Most of them are from CDs I own so I never bothered backing them up. 
    I was just wondering, if I update the ipod from my home computer, it will probably only put the songs back on that are on my home computer, right?  Would I be able to, after updateing the ipod, sync it again with my parents' computer and have the songs on there pop back on too (and go back to the playlists I had them on and all that)?  Or will I have to put them on again as new and sort them onto the playlists I would like them on?
    Thanks for your help

    Of course not.
    Most never have any issue with any update.

  • How to stop iPod touch from disconnecting WiFi

    I often use my iPod touch while I'm doing work for long periods of time and I like to listen to pandora or shoutcast stations, but every so often, if I don't actually do anything with my iPod, it will disconnect from the AP I'm associated with. I assume this is some sort of power saving "feature." Is there some way to make it stop doing this? Thanks in advance for any help.

    A "feature" of Pandora is to disconnect after 30 minutes unless your iPod is plugged in. I'm not sure if the iPod perceives that nothing is active and shuts down the WiFi or if it is a Pandora problem.
    The way you describe the issue makes me think that it is an iPod power saving feature. Any chance you can leave your touch plugged in during these periods?

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
    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.
    Otherwise
    To update
    The Settings>General>Software Update comes with iOS 5 and later.
    Connect the iPod to your computer and update via iTunes as far as your iPod model allows
    iOS 4: Updating your device to iOS 5 or later
    A 3G to 5.1.1  Requires iTunes version 10.5 or later
    A 4G to 6  Requires iTunes version 10.7 or later. For a Mac, that requires a Mac with OSX 10.6.8 or later

  • HT4972 How do I upgrade my iPOD Touch from iOS 4.2.1 to 5?

    How do I upgrade my iPOD Touch from iOS 4.2.1 to 5?  I've reset it, erased it, but still won't install iOS5.

    You most likely have a 2G iPod touch which cannot go beyond iOS 4.2.1.  If it is an 8gb or 16 gb iPod without a camera, it is a 2G iPod.

  • My itunes account was set up under an email account that has been deleted. I started a new itunes account but have the same device as with the old account. How do i keep my music thats on my ipod touch from being deleted when i sync it to my new account?

    My itunes account was set up under an email account that has been deleted. I started a new i tunes account but have the same device as with the old account. How do i keep my music thats on my ipod touch from being deleted whin i sync it to itunes after purchasing new music?

    I have the same problem (deleted email account). I think I mistakenly set up an account when I was buying an Apple product online, not realizing that it would be the same ID as my iTunes.
    What is the way to actually contact Apple?
    I have been clicking around in circles for hours! Will I have to pay them to resolve this? I don't have any products still have applecare . . .

    Hi...My Ipod Touch was recently stolen. In order to help the local police deptartment I need to supply a seria number for the Ipod. Of course, I did not wrtie down the serial number, but I have used he device on my Itunes account. My question: Is there a way to retreive the serial nuber of my Ipod touch from my Itunes account? Thanks you all....

    Yes. See bold below
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.
    - Apple will do nothing without a court order
