I can't update my ipod touch 3gen to 4.3 why?

I have an Ipod touch 3rd generation and I restored it to update it to 4.3 and itunes still hasn't offered me the update. I have itunes 10.2 and have also tried to upgrade to 4.3 on 2 different computers. Please help
Thank you

It is an 8GB model but its an 3 generation as well. So what exactly is the problem with this model?
There is no problem with the model. But, there never was an 8gB 3rd generation. You have a 2nd generation. 4.2.1 is the highest OS it will accept.

    Step 1 – Open the Terminal.app
    Either by start typing Terminal on the Spotlight, or by going into Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal.
    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

    If it's a third generation iPod touch, yes.
    If it's a fourth generation iPod touch, no; they can only be updated directly to 6.1.3.

  • Can I update a iPod Touch from a different PC and not lose my media files?

    OK. Here is the question, can you update a iPod touch which is on iOS 4.x to iOS 6.0 using a different computer that it was originally synced to, but not lose any of the media files on it?

    Only if all your synced media like apps and music are in the iTunes library of that computer.

    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.
