The 1G iPod can only go to 3.1.3 and there are not many apps compatible with 3.1.3. you need a newer mode iPod to use the apps.

I was downloading the software update for ipod touch 2gen and after it was done downloading it showed that there was an error with my ipod and when i saw it was on the lockscreen loading. its been like this for 4 hours already
What did the error message say?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- 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.

IOS update for iPod 4th generation
Will there be an update for iPod 4th generation? Or is Apple forcing us to buy a more recent product to get the ios7 update?
No
As Apple announced in June, iOS 7 is not compatible with the 4G iPod touch
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 -
Will there be an ios update for ipod touch 4g?
Is there going to be and ios update for the ipod touch 4g?
its honestly bs that the IOS 7 isnt for the ipod touch 4 g. so are they planning on making one compatible for the ipod touch 4g at some point?
like people out there still use their ipod touch 4g's so why not just of made it compatible for it too?
so frustrated.No.
There are harware limitations.
The iPod will still continue to work as it always has without the update. -
Where can I find IOS updates for my Ipod Model number MA623LL?
You have the original iPod touch. It can only go as high as iOS 3.1.3.
To more easily find compatible apps:
iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version. -
it will not let me download any apps it says that the apps are not compatiable with ios 4.2.1
I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.

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. -
What did the forced update for iPod touch 2g(A1288) achieve/do to my ipod?
help would be appreciated, Sim
The fact is that the App you want, CSR Racing, requires a 3rd generation Touch. That is stated in the Requirements for the App. So it will not run or install on your 2nd generation Touch, regardless of any updates that you eventually install.
The update (which was not "forced" at all) was probably designed to fix bugs and improve performance. That update came out some time ago (even though you have only just updated, as deduced from your other post) and frankly, I for one, have forgotten exactly what it did.
Perhaps you should spend some time reading therough various posts in these discussions to understand the what, why and limitations of the update instead of posting a new question after Illaass has answered you in your other post. -
what do i do after downloading iOS 3.1 software and "There was a problem downloading iOS 3.1.1 software update for ipod touch. an unknown error occurred (8288). Please check that the connection to the network is active and try again." comes up?
Hello, I hope by now you have resolved the upgrade issue, but if not, here is what I ended up having to do:
“SUCCESS!!! I took my iPod to a friend who is a computer programmer/genius. He turned off his wireless, hooked the ethernet cable directly into his computer, and the download went through without a hitch. YAY!”
Here is my original post explaining what I had already tried:
“Hi all,
I got an iPod Touch 1st gen for my youngest son for Christmas as a starter. It has the 2.1.2 ios on it, but after I paid for the upgrade to 3.1.1, I keep getting an error message (8288) saying there was a problem with the network connection. I have called customer service, and they suggested I try on a different computer, and if that didn't work, try connecting to a different network, and then trying the update. None of this has worked. It seems that tech support is clueless with this issue.
I have installed and unistalled iTunes 10.5, 10.3, 10.4, and now I am back with 10.5. I have tried looking up the issue from several search engines but no one seems to have a universal solution and I have tried several.
I really want to have this thing updated for himw hwne he opens it, but I am starting to worry that my purchase was a bust. I know this is the oldest version, but I don't want to buy a newer, more expensive iPod and him still not be mature enough to really take care of it. As I said, this one is a starter.
Can anyone help? Please?!
Thank you!!!
P.S. We have a PC, with Windows XP Home.”
Now, there seem to be a lot of different ways to solve the 8288 error, none of which are universal. Best of luck getting yours upgraded!

P.S. The post by Sparkhi is a link to his blog going into a long story about how he wanted Apple to pay him for “solving” the issue….the one that apparently has been solved by multiple solutions. I’m not trying to bash, it just bothers me that he put up this whole story and finally, at the very end of his blog post, posts his solution. -

I updated the ios on my ipod touch. Now when I browse the itunes store on my ipod, it only allows a very brief visit before automatically closing me out. I have to go back into the store and begin searches etc all over again. Is this a setting or a problem that is randomly occuring? I use to look for hours. Any thoughts?
