HT5192 what happen if i updated my ipod (4th generation) from there and not from my coputer??

update my ipod touch 4th generation from there and not from my computer?

Connecting to a new computer or iTunes will always erase the device first. Back up manually before, by right clicking on the iPod in the device list and choosing "backup". A manual backup does not include the sync process. You can use this backup to restore from after your iPod got wiped during the first sync.
See also iTunes: About iOS backups to see more info about the content of a backup, and How to back up your data and set up as a new device if you want to know more about saving info from the iPod before setting it up in iTunes.

  • I can't update my iPod 4th generation to ios 6

    I can't update my iPod 4th generation to ios 6... I've updated my iTunes to 10.7 checked my security software tried restoring my iPod and then downloading on my device and my laptop. When I connect it to the computer I try downloading & updating and only downloading.. Still nothing I get error messages, can't connect to update server messages.. I'm just thinking about giving up... What the heck do i do !!??? Will the local apple store do it for me and what's so going to be on the 5th gen I may just wait and get that one. Please help.

    Are you sure you have a proper Internet connection? Make sure your iPod is connected to your computer, and you have an Internet connection.
    Don't even get me started on the iPod Touch 5G, I actually own an iPod Touch 4G, and I've considered a lot about if I should get the new one. At first look, you might be sold by the features Apple has on their iPod Touch page. It has a taller screen that's a 4-inch Retina Display, has a much better camera with a flash, and comes with iOS 6 preinstalled with Siri. But the real breakthrough comes with the new connector. It's called Lighting, and it's much smaller. But if you have a dock connector that comes with some cars, and maybe a set of speakers or docking stations as alarm clocks, I encourage you not to get the new one. The usage of your old connectors requires a $30 adapter, which is a ridiculous price. And who knows how secure the adapters will be with your docking stations? I personally think Apple has crossed the line. If they are to put a new connector with their new products, they should ship with an adapter in the box, at least at first. This is why I strongly encourage you NOT to get the new 5th generation iPod Touch.
    Sorry if I went a little off-topic there, but I wanted to get my point across. For your updating to iOS 6, I reccommend you check out other discussions in the support comunity, and see what other contributors have to say. Or go on Google and search your error messages, possibly someone might've already went through the same problem as you did. I really hope this helped!

  • 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

  • How do i update my ipod 4th generation into ios 6?

    How can I update my ipod touch 4th generation 4.2.1 into ios 6. I have installed the latest version of iTunes on my computer, then I connected my ipod to it. However, I tunes is saying that ios8 is the latest update, and I want to update to ios 6. How do I solve this problem?

    If your iPod is currently running iOS 4.2.1, that suggests that it is in fact a 2nd generation Touch, not 4th. If I recall correctly, the 4th gen Touch came with iOS 5 on it.
    To check whether your iPod is 2nd gen, look on the back at the etched text (you may need a magnifying glass). If it states Model No. A1288, then it's a second generation Touch, which cannot be updated beyond iOS 4.2.1
    Alternatively, if you connect your Touch to your iTunes Library (on your computer) and use the Check for Updates feature on the Device/Summary pane. If it comes back and states "your iPod is up to date", then there are no updates for it.

    ipod touch music player will not down load music from itunes?

    What happens when you try to sync?
    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

    Do you have any Restrictions (Settings>General>Restrictions) set that would prevent syncing those songs?

  • I can't update my ipod 4th generation to iOS 6.1.6

    Hey guys,
    I have an iPod 4G that currently has an iOS of 5.1.1
    I tried a few times to update it to iOS 6.1.6 but whenever I do I get the error message:
    "Software Update Failed; An error occured downloading iOS 6.1.6."
    When i try on iTunes, I get to about a quarter of the way howver an error message pops up saying:
    "There was a problem downloading the software for the iPod the network connections timed out."
    Does anyone know why the update is not working?

    Check for hardware issues
    Try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good. Also, confirm your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers. If you still see the alert when you update or restore, contact Apple support.
    Common errors: 1, 10-47, 1002, 1011, 1012, 1014, 1000-1020.
    Configure your security software
    Check your security software and settings, which can block ports and prevent connection to Apple servers during update and restore.
    Common errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006, 9807, 9844. Sometimes as a result of this issue, a device might stop responding during the restore process.
    Try on another computer.

  • Quarter-inch female to a 3.55mm male to connect guitar to my Ipod Touch 4th gen. It still records from mic and not from wire.

    Hey everyone, I recently bought a quarter-inch female to a 3.55mm male to connect my acoustic electric guitar to my Ipod Touch 4th gen. Now when I connect it, it doesn't actually take the sound from the wire, it still keeps the mic open. Any suggestions?

    You can try putting the iPod into Recovery Mode and restoring it:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    If that doesn't work, then sorry but the jailbreak may have permanently corrupted your iPod. Since we cannot help with jailbroken devices in these forums, you'll need to look elsewhere for additional suggestions and advice.
    Regards.
