HT4972 i need to update my ios on my ipod touch i have never updated it is still using ios4.3

i need help with updating my ios on my 8 gb ipod touch it has neever been updated and is still running 4.3 and i have no idea what i have to do

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 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 6.1.3.

  • Up to what IOS can the ipod touch 3g have??

    i currently have IOS 4.3.3, but i can't update it to the latest, if there is one.

    Yes. But some users who thought that had a 3G really had a 2G. A 2G can only go to 4.2.1. If you "3G" is 8 or 16 GB it is a 2G. Apple only made 32 and 64 GB 3Gs. A 32 GB can be either.
    See:
    Identifying iPod models
    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.

    If the thief enabled activation lock on the device, then there is nothing that can be done.  Only the password for the Apple ID that it is locked with can disable activation lock.

  • TS1424 I updated latest ios on my ipod touch. Now when I go to the itunes store and browse for possible purchases it seems to shut off after only a short time for no reason. Help?

    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?

  • After updating iOS on my iPod touch 4th gen my Philips speaker dock DC290B/37 no longer charges the iPod.  It will play music but not charge, is there anyway to find out if Apple is working on an update/fix?

    after updating iOS on my iPod touch 4th gen my Philips speaker dock DC290B/37 no longer charges the iPod.  It will play music but not charge, is there anyway to find out if Apple is working on an update/fix?

    Try:
    - Reset the dock
    - 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. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    Otherwise you are out of luck. Apple is not making any more update for the 4G.
    Also check with Phillips. Maybe they have an firmware update available

  • After updating to iOS 6 my iPod Touch 4th.Gen is virtually unusable ... does anyone know how to sue Apple since they gave no warning about iOS 6 being for iPad optimisation and a killer  for iPods ?

    After updating to iOS 6 my iPod Touch 4th.Gen is virtually unusable ... does anyone know how to sue Apple since they gave no warning about iOS 6 being for iPad optimisation and a killer for iPods ?  Before I throw away my iPod Touch does anyone know if Apple intends to rectify their obnoxious disregard for iPod users by issuing another 'upgrade' which will allow iPods to work without the constant system crashes that iOS 6 has caused ?

    Contact a lawyer if you want to sue.
    Otherwise try:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: 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 iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • After update to ios 5, my ipod touch cannot recharge anymore... it's out of battery now what should I do?

    After update to ios 5, my ipod touch cannot recharge anymore... it's out of battery now what should I do?

    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. The appointment is free.

  • Do I need to update iOS3.1.3 to iOS4.0 before restoring backup on iPhone 4?

    Here's what I plan to do: I have a 3G 16gb with 3.1.3 on it. I wish to back it up and restore the back-up on a new iPhone 4. Since iPhone is going to be preloaded with iOS4, do I need to update my current 3g to iOS4 before I backing it up to restore it on the new phone? I think I do have to since iOS4 is being released a few days prior to the iPhone 4 launch, but I want to double check.
    My main reason for asking is I wish to sell my 3G on eBay. I am worried having it updated to iOS4 won't be desirable to the people who want to jailbreak or unlock it. I'm sure there will be a jailbreak for iOS4 coming soon, but would I have a better chance of selling it with 3.1.3 on it? Any input is appreciated.
    Thanks!

    You do not have to upgrade your 3G to 4.0 before backing up for use with the iPhone 4. Of course, 4.0 specific settings aren't backed up.
    Unless you are living in a bubble, 99.5% of iPhones sold on eBay are sold to people you intend to jailbreak/unlock them
    This is undoubtedly based on independent, statistically verified surveys, and not a self serving wild guess based on you and your school friends predilections. Of course.

  • Old computer died, need to get my music from my ipod touch to my pc, how can I do this without losing music for free!?

    I have an Ipod touch with about 900 songs on it, i used to connect with my old pc until it recently broke. i have just bought a new pc and was wondering how i could get my music from my ipod to my new computer! the only thing i need is music , no videos or anything. does anyone know how i can do this for free? not very good with computers by the way!

    - Transfer iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
    Copy music
    - If you have synced photos and some other items you will need a paid program like TouchCopy or PhoneView. They also do music.
    - Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backyp by right clicking on the iPod uder Devices in iTunes and select Backup
    - Then restore the iPod from that backup.

  • Failed to download iOS 5 on iPod touch - please help?

    I've tried to download iOS5 onto my iPod touch, following the instructions to first wipe it and restore it - it restore with the old 4. version, not the iOS5.  How can I get it to download iOS 5? Thanks

    Are you sure you have a 3G or 4G iPod Touch? Only those generation iPod Touch models can be updated to iOS 5.  If you have a 2G iPod Touch, it can only be updated to iOS 4.2.1.

  • What do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet

    what do i do if my internet is wep and i need it to be wpa2 because my ipod touch 4th gen connects to the internet but when i click on safari or itunes it says safari cannot open the page because its not connected to the internet. i have contacted apple support and they said to change from wep to wpa2 but when i change it to wpa2 and type in password and connect on my laptop it says the saved setting on this computer for the network do not match the require ments of the network

    My 2nd gen works fine with WPA2 and AES encryption.
    You may need to go back and start over.  Reset the router back to factory defaults, log on as the admin, set up security, DHCP, and make sure the IP address pool has enough IP addresses to lease to ALL of the computers/devices that will connect to that the router.
