Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and “ Check for Updates “...
If an Update Appears Install it... if not... you are up to date for your particular Device...
See the Using iTunes Section Here...

Make sure you have the Latest Version of iTunes (v11) Installed on your computer

  • HT4623 What if I don't have the choice to update my software?

    I can't sync the apps I downloaded from my computer to my Ipod Touch. When I go into iTunes it will let me do pretty much anything else, but it will not let me sync the apps. I tried downloading the apps on my Ipod but it still won't let me

    Have you confirmed that the apps you downloaded are compatible with your model of iPod touch and the version of iOS it's running? Many apps now require iOS 4.3 or later, which if you have a 2nd-generation iPod touch will not work on your device.
    If that doesn't answer your question, post back with more details about your iPod, etc. and perhaps we can offer suggestions.
    Regards.

    That's probably a bookmark you have saved in Favorites.

  • TS1409 What if I don't have the Apple Component AV Cable or Apple Composite AV Cable to connect my iPod to? Do I have to buy one to watch videos on my iPod?

    Hi there,
    I am assuming you have an ipod nano 6th gen (the small one with a touch screen)
    unfortunately, the ipod nano 6 gen can not play videos whatsoever unless you hack it so even with a cable it does not work.
    I hope this helps cus im new
    (if other generation ipod nano, just reply and i will help again )

  • Somehow I messed up creating my hard cover book.  I don't have the back cover and flap.  How do I get it back?

    somehow I messed up creating my hard cover book.  I don't have the back cover and flap.  How do I get it back?

    What version of iPhoto are you running?  Where are you seeing this lack of back cover and flap.
    A first try fix is this:  make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
         User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder. 
    Click to view full size
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    If that doesn't help create a new book and see if the back cover and flap are in it.  If so then it appears that your original book is damaged. 
    You can try rebuilding the library by launching iPhoto with the Option and Command keys held down and select the option to Repair the Database, option #3.  If that fails rebuild again with option #4, Rebuild Database.
    If that doesn't help then create a new book, verify that the back cover and flap is there and add the photos.

    Your purchases are tied to your Apple ID. If you bought all of the books with the old ID then AFAIK you will have to continue to use that ID in order to continue to sync those books to the iPad.
    You have to update the app with the old ID so I don't see how you could keep the books with the new ID. Maybe I am wrong about this, but someone else will chime in I'm sure and correct me if I am wrong.

    Only upgrade to 10.7 or later if you are prepared:

    THANKS

    Update it from iTunes on a computer as described at the bottom of this article; devices running an iOS version prior to 5.0 can't be updated straight from the device. It will be updated to the newest iOS release supported by the device’s hardware.
    The maximum iOS version for the fourth generation iPod touch and iPhone 3GS is 6.1.3.

  • TS4268 What if I don't have the FaceTime and iMessage app?

    I don't know how to activate iMessage and FaceTime and I don't have both of the apps

    There are no apps for imessage and facetime.  Both are built into the operating system for the phone.  Go to settings/messages to set up imessage and settings/facetime to set up facetime.  Facetime calls are initiated thru the contacts app when you view details for a contact, scroll to the botto and tap on the box containing the word facetime.  Facetime can also be initiated when on a call.

  • HT4623 What If I don't see the system update option on my ipod

    I am trying to get skype but I need iOS 4.3 and I tried to update but the option software update is not in my setting how else can I update? Hello please

    To update
    iTunes 10 for Windows: Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    A 1G iPod can go to iOS 3.1.3
    A 2G to 4.2.1. Requires iTunes version 10.X. That requires a Mac with OSX 10.5.8 or later. With 1OSX 10.4.11 you can only go to iTunes 9.X which gets you as high as iOS 4.1
    A 3G to 5.1.1  Requires iTunes version 10.5 or later
    A 4G to 6  Requires iTunes version 10.7 or later. That requires a Mac with OSX 10.6.8 or later
      Identifying iPod models
    I suspect you have the 2G iPOd.
    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.
