I can not update my Ipod Error 3194

This device is not eligible for the requested build (Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194")
Update to the latest version of iTunes.
Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, followTroubleshooting security software issues.
Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to performunauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. Uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer.
Edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from your hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect. For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart.
Avoid using an older or modified .ipsw file. Try moving the current .ipsw file (see Advanced Steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw) below for file locations), or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw.

    It sounds like you may have a 2nd generation iPod Touch. If so, 4.2.1 is the highest iOS. Please note there was never a 2nd Generation 8gB version of the iPod Touch.

  • I can not update my ipod tuch

    i can not update my ipod tuch to new verision

    What version do you have? If iTunes is stating that iOS 4.2.1 is up to date, you most likely have a 2nd generation unit. It can not be upgraded beyond iOS 4.2.1.

  • Can not update to ipod 2.1 software

    I am trying to update my itouch to the ipod 2.1 software, but when it tries to backup my itouch, it takes about 30 minutes and then comes back and says "an error has occurred while attempting to backup the ipod, error code is -6971. It then asks if I would like to continue without backing up. I tried to continue once, and i had to restore the ipod. So, I need to find out what this error is, because I can not seem to access any of the new applications that I just purchased from itunes...

    iPod 2nd Gens cannot be upgraded to iOS 5. However, you can still update it up to 4.2.1 version. That is the best you can do for your 2.1.1 version.

  • Can not update itunes.  Error of missing file itunes64.msi

    I am trying to update my iTunes software to version 11.0.1.  I am running windows 7.  I get an error message itunes64.msi is missing.  (within the message it says the feature is on a network that is unavailable).  When I google it there are many references to this error, but no quick and easy solution.  Any thoughts?

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

    Step 2 – Open the hosts file
    Open the hosts by typing on the Terminal that you have just opened:
    view source
    print?
    1
    $ sudo nano /private/etc/hosts
    Type your user password when prompted.
    Step 3 – Edit the hosts file
    By deleting
    #74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com
    #127.0.0.1 gs.apple.com
    from your hosts file, save close and then reboot.
    Or in Windows:
    Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc, open hosts file in notepad and remove
    #74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com
    #127.0.0.1 gs.apple.com
