You have a 2G iPod those can only go to 4.2.1.
Connect the iPod to your computer and update via iTunes

A 2G to 4.2.1. Requires iTunes version 10.X. If a Mac it requires OSX 10.5.8 or later.

  • My games app in ipod touch version 4.2.1 (8C148) won't open at all!

    I have my ipod touch version 4.2.1(8C148). At first, I wanted to save more music in my ipod touch so I installed the latest version of itunes(10.6.1.7). I followed the rules on how to save music from forums in the internet. I made a playlist on itunes, and from my Music file I dragged my mp3's on my itune's playlist. I plugged my ipod touch and it appearred on the left side as Device. And from my playlist, I selected all and dragged them into my ipod touch.. and then click Sync below. (example: http://www.technipages.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/iTunes-Sync-button.png). After that, I also saved videos. The same procedures I did like on how to save musics. After Syncing all... when i opened a game app, it won't open. All of the game applications won't open! I don't know why. Help me!:)

    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 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.
    If you don't know what device you have, append the last three characters of its serial number to http://www.everymac.com/ultimate-mac-lookup/?search_keywords= and load the page.

  • My daughter tried to open a game on her Ipod touch and the screen went white and I can't get it to do ANYTHING...I've tried holding the sleep/wake button and it does NOTHING, still only a white screen.

    My daughter tried to play the My Horse game on her Ipod touch that she got for Christmas and when she opened the game it said something about sending "push notifications" and gave the choice of "don't allow" or "ok"...we chose "don't allow". After that the screen went white and now we cannot get the Ipod touch to respond to anything. I tried holding the sleep/wake button to try to restart it and it doesn't seem to work. Any suggestions to get this device working again???

    Try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If that doesn't work, try a Restore:
    From iTunes, select the iPad and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad.
    There's more that you can do.  Post back if none of the above solves the problem.
    By the way, I always allow "push."  That allows the app developer to "push" information to your device rather than waiting for you to ask for it.  However, "don't allow" shouldn't cause the problem that you're experiencing.

  • Why am i having trouble with one of my iPod touch's game and playing it online

    Ever since I got the iOS 6 update on my fourth generation iPod touch;I have been having a hard time playing Call of Duty Black Ops Zombies online. I can manage to get it to try to connect me to the room or whatever but then it says it had an error in joining the room. Sometimes I try to play and the app kicks me off and leaves me on my iPod's home screen D= Does anyone nknow why my game may be doing this? I paid $7 for that game =_=

    I am having this exact same problem. Except I am using an iphone5. I can play solo just fine, but when I try to play online, game center connects me to other players, then it says "Connecting to online services" then it says "error on joing room" and boots me back to the main menu.
    It doesnt matter whether i'm on my work or home wifi, I always get the same error.
    btw, the orignal call of duty zombies works fine online. I'm only having issues with the black ops version

  • I am having trouble updating Itunes saying that it can't find the Itunes.msi folder how can I get it make a path for it.

    I am having problems updating Itunes and it is saying that it cannot find this itunes.msi folder when I even redownloaded the installing package from the internet cause it could not find it after trying to update it from the program itself. What do I do in order for it to update or download the updated version of Itunes??

    Hi, HeWhoIsNtNmd.
    Thank you for the question.  To resolve this I would recommend to uninstall iTunes and all of it's components.  As you are receiving the iTunes.msi error, see the steps in the first article below. 
    "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" alert when removing Apple software in Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3704
    You will only need to process the above mentioned steps when uninstalling or updating a program and receive the .msi error. 
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
    Once you have completely uninstalled all components, download iTunes and reinstall.

  • HT2729 Having trouble video recording on my IPOD Touch 32 GB

    Can anyone help me with this problem?
    My IPOD Touch 32 GB won't video tape.  When I try to do a video tape it pauses.
    It will take pictures.
    Thank you.

    There is no tape... so it cannot video tape. 
    What generation iPod... it may not be capable of recording video.

  • Having trouble updating my 4th gen iPod touch to iOS 6

    I have a 4th generation iPod touch which is currently running iOS 4.3.2. It is not jailbroken, it is registered to me, and there is to my knowledge nothing wrong with it. I installed the latest version of iTunes on my girlfriend's computer because I don't have internet access at my house, signed in, plugged up my iPod, backed it up, and attempted to update it. I tried SEVERAL times, and each time iTunes finishes downloading the update, but won't actually install it on my iPod. I don't get any error messages; it just quits/gives up. ITunes offers no explanation as to why it stopped the update, and I have to start all over again. I don't understand why it won't work. Someone please help me. Thanks in advance.

    - Try disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall.
    - Next try the manual install described here:

  • Help! Trouble syncing photos to the iPod touch

    I have just downloaded pics from my digital camera, and I have having trouble syncing them with my iPod touch. They are all jpg files. I get an error saying:
    "some (all) of my photos were not copied to my iPod because they cannot be displayed on my iPod."
    Is there a certain style or size the photos need to be?

    You will need to free up some more space. Regardless of the size of the photos you are trying to transfer to the iPod, you need more free space than 500mb to accommodate the photo cache.

  • Trouble Loading Game

    I'm having trouble loading EA's Rail Simulator on my Satellite A100.
    On my first attempt I got the message insufficient free space, so set about deleting unused programs and burning pics to CD.
    Soon freed-up about 6.5GB.
    Tried again, got as far as entering the key number and on pressing return it just hangs. After about 20 secs the drive stops. Thats it!
    Have loaned the game to a friend with vista PC and it performs fine.
    My drive works well for burning CDs, and I have loaded other programs using the drive, just as a check. All is OK.
    Have tried loading game using remote LG CD/DVD drive, but the result is the same.
    Have used ccleaner to check/clean drives, all to no avail.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks
    Steve

    BTW, usually "download" refers to getting a file from a network (usually the Internet), while typically when something comes from a CD or DVD (such as this) is installed.
    If your kids bought you a new copy of the game (or you bought one), you should be able to create an account that comes with one free month of service that would allow you to play at the same time as your kids.  (BTW, if you DO create an account for yourself, make sure to check out Blizzard's Recruit-A-Friend program before you do so.  Once you create an account, it's too late to get the recruit-a-friend goodies.)
    How large are the C and E drives, and how much free space is on each of them?
    Not sure why the E drive is getting involved, usually a person has to explicitly choose a drive other than C.
    Also, once a machine has WoW installed and fully patched, it is possible to just copy the game directory to another machine.  (FYI to Best Buy moderators, since WoW is a subscription-based MMOG, copying like this is fully legal in this particular case - in fact Blizzard allows a person to download the game files from their website for free.)  In your case I would try this, but there are a WoW-related few registry keys you might need to remove first.  I don't remember which ones at the moment...  I'll look them up tonight.
    *disclaimer* I am not now, nor have I ever been, an employee of Best Buy, Geek Squad, nor of any of their affiliate, parent, or subsidiary companies.

  • I'm having trouble loading photos on my I phone 4s and I pod.  I don't see the photos tab in Itunes?? Prob user error but wanted to get some help.

    I'm having trouble loading photos on my I phone 4s and I pod.  I don't see the photos tab in I-tunes? I'm sure its user error but wanted to get some help.

    What's the origin of this external drive? It sounds very much like it's a Windows-formatted (NTFS) drive which Macs can't write to. If you can, copy the files off the drive, reformat it as Mac format (using Disk Utility) and copy the files back. If you need to continue writing to it from a Windows PC, you should format it ExFAT in Disk Utility.

  • Photoshop cs5 is having trouble loading.

    PS CS5 is having trouble loading getting hung on reading preferences.  This started after I imported many patterns.  Can anyone help me fix this issue?

    Hi Kevin,
    One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
    PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
    Reboot, test again.
    If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport, or some USB or Firewire device, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
    Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
    Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...
    /private/var/run/StartupItems
    /Library/StartupItems
    /System/Library/StartupItems
    /System/Library/LaunchDaemons
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    If safe mode doesn't work, let us know.

    We are fellow users here on these public forums, I've asked the hosts to remove your phone number and email address from your post - it's not a good idea to post personal info on any public forum.
    If you are trying to add an email account to the Mail app then you should be able to so via Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and on the right-hand side of that screen there should be an 'Add Account' button. Tap that, select the type/provider of the account, and fill in its details - you might then just need to fill in your name, your email address, the account's password, and a description.
