    Connect the iPod to the computer and restore via iTunes. If necessary, place the iPod in Recovery Mode to allow the restore.

    How can i update ios7 for my ipod touch.

    No.
    As Apple said in June, iOS 7 is not compatible with the 4G iPod.
    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

  • Can anyone help me restore my ipod touch 2nd gen?

    Hi there. I am trying to update the software on my ipod touch but I keep getting an error code that states I can't restore it. Error code is 1-
    Any tips?

    Hi. Error code 1- indicates that you are unable to update or restore your iPod. To solve this problem you need to put your device into recovery mode. Before you begin ensure that you have some charge in your device.
    You should first disconnect your iPod from your computer and make sure it is turned off. While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
    Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
    When you next open itunes it will notify you that your device is in recovery mode and will ask you to restore it. It should all work after this.
    If your still unsure take a look at this  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Hope this helps, Ben

  • Can't update or restore my ipod - please help

    It only seems that i can synch my ipod when i plug it in when windows loads up. Itunes automatically loads up and my ipod synchs. But then if later i want to synch again as i have added new stuff it won't. When i try to restore it to the factory settings to try and resolve it my ipod dissapears from the list and it says restoring my ipod but nothing happens. The progress bar just goes across forever and my ipod comes out of the do not disconnect mode and i can disconnect it. Any ideas on how i can restore it please???
    Hope this makes sense!!!

    you're making perfect sense. with that set of symptoms, first check on the possibility from this document:

  • I can't update and restore my ipod. Also it has 7.5gb wasted

    Hi,
    While I was charging my ipod video (30gb), the cable got disconnected accidentally, after this, the ipod has not anymore songs, contacts, video... anything on it, everything has been deleted, but when I used itunes, in the section of the ipod appeared 7.5 gb used. Then I tried to update and restore with the last update software, but any of those worked and it always showed the same message error (error -60008), I charged the ipod again with all songs, videos, etc and it works perfectly, but there is still a problem in the memory of the ipod. There are 15gb which appear used but there are 7.5gb of those which supposted to be free but apparently contain the same files.
    The ipod has 12.6 gb free
    ibook g4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    I had a similar problem last week, my ipod was showing space used but I couldn't access anything on my ipod. I put out a query here but wasn't lucky enough to get an answer. In the end I reformatted the ipod and rebuilt alll my play lists (a major job) - lesson learnt here was to back up the ipod when its running smoothly. I now use podutil from http://www.kennettnet.co.uk/software/podutil.php
    so if it crashes again (or my 3 year old pulls out the usb at a critical moment) all is not lost and it's just a matter of a quick restore.

  • How can i update the 4.1 iPod touch to the most allowable version of 6.1? I have only been able to go to 4.2

    I would like to transfer the apps and music from my computer to a new iPod touch that was previously owned by my brother. My previous iPod is lost or stolen. I also need to update it to 6.1, the highest allowable upgrade, which allows at least some of the older versions of some apps to work (such as Facebook, youtube). I have only figured out how to update it to 4.2. They say I can't have help over the phone unless I pay $29, although they have helped me in the past in a similar situation. Thanks. John

    Upgrading it depends on what model it is:

If you do not have a Software Update option present on your iDevice, then you are trying to upgrade to iOS 5 or higher. You will have to connect your device to your computer and open iTunes in order to upgrade.

  • Can't update to ios7 on ipod touch 4th generation on this ipod. had facetime but now it requires ios7 so i have it no more and used it a lot with family. would have to buy new ipod. apple should not take away the capabilities you have already paid for

    found out i can't update ipod touch 4th generation to ios7 which is now required to use facetime. have used facetime for several years with family now can't use. Apple should not take away the capabilities you already have paid for!!

    No correct, you do not need iOS for FaceTime. You only needed to update to iOS 6.1.6.

  • Can't update to latest iTunes, ipod touch not appearing in current iTunes but iPod classic is.  HALP!

    Hi there.
    This is driving me absolutely mad!
    I am not completely computer illeterate but I don't want to go poking around in any registry files and things like that as I would most likely break the Universe if I did.
    Basically, for some random reason a few months ago iTunes wanted me to download it's new version.  I said ok and it proceeded to do it's thing.  Then I heard the 'I'M BROKEN' sound that my laptop makes when something goes wrong or there is an error and it's saying that there is an error with something or other and it can't complete my request to update.
    After that I have not been able to connect my ipod touch 4th gen.  At all.  To anything.  I've tried downloading alternatives to iTunes to see if I could work around things that way but it seems my ipod won't connect to them either. 
    I've fiddled around with USB's, buying new ones, going into my computer and poking around in there to see if I can do something, all to no avail.
    Strange thing is, everything recognises my ipod classic.  Now yes, I could just use that but I want to use my touch! It cost enough, I might as well use it.  If I can't I'll sell it and I'll never buy anything from Apple again as it seems that if one thing goes wrong, there is no way around it.
    I have scoured these boards for answers.  I have followed pretty much every single solution that Apple can give via the FAQ's and troubleshooting things. 
    I have also tried connecting my touch to a friends computer and it is recognised there so it's an itunes or laptop problem and not the ipod.  It still connects as a camera, my USB drivers are up to date.  I've tried deleting and then reinstalling itunes and that doesn't work as it WON'T INSTALL. 
    I was thinking that perhaps formatting my ipod might help but there is no point as it's not the ipod that is the problem.
    If anyone wants me to screenshot the error message then I will be more than happy to do so.
    I just really want some help!
    Thanks to whoever reads this =D

  • I've updated and restored my ipod touch. But when i turn it on, it stays frozen on the screen with the apple icon and the loading bar.  How do i fix it?

    I went to update my ipod touch and it said it may take an hour. so i left it plugged in over night. in the morning the ipod was frozen. it had the apple logo and the loading bar. i reset the ipod and it stays at the same screen. i just restored it, reset it again, and restart my computer, but everytime it turns on it stays on that screen with the logo and loading bar. how do i fix it?

    Were all the apps bought under the same Apple ID? For example if a husband and wife share the same computer but have different apple ID's what he buys won't play on her iPad and vice versa. However if they shared the same Apple id for both devices then any compatible apps would transfer and work on both.

  • Can't update my 2nd gen ipod touch from 3.1.2 to anything higher

    I'm trying to update my ipod. During the update download it says my connection timed out after a 100% complete download ?
    I just wan't my ipod updated to the new firmware so I can download newer apps.
    Please help.
    Thank you

    Thank you. I will have to try that next time. I was able to finally get it to work by downloading the update seperatly to my computer. In iTunes before clicking the update button I held down the shift key and it let me choose my previously downloaded file. That finally worked instead of letting iTunes download it then error out ?? Oh well it works now. Thanks again for the tip, I really appreciate your response.

  • How to update my 1st Generation iPod Touch

    How can I update my first generation iPod touch to iOS 4.3 if it's updated currently to iOS 4.2.1?
    I tied going to iTunes and checking for an update, but it tells me that it's updated to the current version.

    You can't. That is the last version for that model, which is a 2nd Generation:
