    but the iPod won't sync anymore
    What happens when you try to sync? Error message?
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • HT4623 How would you update your iPod Touch using your iPod touch?

    I want to update the software on my iPod Touch 4th Generation from my iPod Touch itself. I can't figure out how to do it, though. In the past, it has just asked me to update, but now, it doesn't do that. Anyone with any information on how to update your iPod touch software, it would be greatly appreciated if you shared your knowledge with me. Thanks so much!(:

    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If the iPad already has iOS you can go to Settings>gener>wifi update and update via wifi. Otherwise yu will have to connect to iTunes and update via iTunes.
    The current iOS is iOS 6.

  • When i try to update software for my 3rd Gen iPod Touch to version 5 i get the message 'This version of iTunes (9.2.1) is the current version'. My Mac OS is 10.4.11. How can I update the iPod software?

    The later iOSs requires at least OSX 10.5.8 for the Mac.  You need iTunes 10.5 but 10.4.11 only goes to 9.x.. 10.5.8 is a paid upgrade.
    Are you sure that you have a 3G iPod?  If it is 8 or 16 GB it is a 2G and those can only go to 4.2.1 (also requires 10.5.8 or later). A 32 GB can be either  2G or 3G. To identify yours:

    how can you connect your 4th gen ipod touch to a 3g network?

    Yu need a device like the following:
    - A MiFi or similar. They are credit-card size devices that act a wifi hotspot and then connect to a cellulare network
    - Use a smart phone that can act as a wifi hotspot to share it s cellular connection. An iPhone will also do that via bluetooth. You need to purchase a tethering plan .

  • HT1420 I just bought my cousin's ipod, and I want to update it on my computer.  However, it needs authorization from his account to keep all the apps, and he's already authorized it on 5 computers.  How can I update this ipod without losing all the apps?

    You cannot use someone else's apps without violating the license agreement. The apps are tied to the owner (via Apple ID). The right thing to do would be to update and start fresh.

  • How can i update my ipod 1st generation from IOS 4.2.1 to 5.0

    how can i update my ipod from IOS 4.2.1 to 5.0

    Update it from iTunes on a computer as described at the bottom of this article; there isn't a Software Update option in General on iOS versions prior to 5.0. It can only be updated directly to the newest iOS release supported by the device’s hardware.
    The maximum iOS version for the first generation iPod touch and original iPhone is 3.1.3.
    The maximum iOS version for the second generation iPod touch and the iPhone 3G is 4.2.1.
    The maximum iOS version for the third generation iPod touch and original iPad is 5.1.1.
    The maximum iOS version for the fourth generation iPod touch and iPhone 3GS is 6.1.6.
