  • HT4623 My iPod Touch does not have "software update" button - what to do?

    Wanted to download Google App but was told I needed iOS 5.1 or above 
    I currently have iOS 4.2.1 (8C148)
    The website for iPod Touch says go to Settings/General/Download Software but there is no such button.
    My Model Nr is MB531BT
    I have about 145MB left - is that enough?

    No.
    Looks like yours could be a 2nd Gen... If so... iOS 4,2,1 is as far as it can go

    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...

You have to put in a credit card number so you can purchase a game thats free or 0.99 cents or higher then you have to fill in other stuff then press next on your ipod touch or computer then it says you have succesifully created an apple id! And i hope this information will help out!!

    - Try resetting 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.
    - I would also try signing out of your account and signing back in. Go to Settings>Store to do that.

  • HELP?! My iPod touch won't let me type anything!

    I just got my ipod touch and finished setting it up and putting all my music on it. I was trying to get on the internet but I have to put in a password for my internet connection. Whenever the keyboard comes up on my iPod it won't let me type anything. It just pops up for a minute and then dissapears! *What's going on??* Can anyone help!

    Where are you physically located?
    What country's Store are you using?
    The two have to be the same and the payment method for your account also has to be associated (billing address, where iTunes gift card was purchased) with that country.
    Has the ID(s) worked before for purchases for this country's store?

  • HT4972 Why 2nd generation IPod Touch is not allowed to update with newer IOS?

    Why 2nd generation ipod touch not allowed to update its OS to IOS 5 or later? This limitation made that IPod more or less useless as updated apps cannot be installed.

    Be sure to backup your current apps.  They can not be downloaded again,  Earlier iOS apps are becoming increasingly difficult to find.  You may want to look at VintApps, new in the Apple app store, that makes this much easier. 
    https://www.facebook.com/VintApps313
    Although there are thousands of available apps to choose from, they will definitively not be the latest greatest.
    I wrote my 99 cent app specifically to help solve this kind of problem.  I need to add that "I may receive some form of compensation, financial or otherwise, from my recommendation or link."

  • How come my iPod Touch will not let me get the latest software update and will only let me have the 3.1 update?

    My iPod will only let me get the 3.1 update and I don't know how to get a later update.

    What happens when you try?
    Error message?
    Do you have the original ipod touch?  If so, then  3.1 is the latest software.

  • Hello my question is how can i get this circle off my ipod touch its not letting me go on my lock screen i try restoring it but itunes wont let my restore it

    Please answer my question, I really need my iPod Touch back.

    First try a reset:
    Hold the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears. No data will be lost.
    If that doesn't work, try a restore again. If necessary, place the iPod in Recovery Mode: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

  • IPod touch 5 not working after updated to iOS 8.3

    ipod touch 5th gen isn't working after I updated it to iOS 8.3. After it finished updating, the iPod wouldn't turn on and wouldn't charge. I've had it for over 2 years. the iPod isn't charging and is only displaying the dead battery icon. I have tried everything but it still isn't working.

    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - 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 another cable                                                       
    - 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.
