I have an older Ipod touch with 4.2.1 and cannot be updated any further, how do I install apps on it now? so far every app I have tried says I need an updated IOS. This sounds like I now have an apple product paper weight.

This sounds like I now have an apple product paper weight unless I want to run out and buy the latest and greatest overpriced apple product.
Are you willing to buy a newer iPod? How about the 4g @ 16gb for $199* usd or the 5g @ 32gb for $299*.

I have an older Ipod Touch that is (I believe) the third generation because I have no camera on my ipod. I recently changed my Apple ID and password on my Itunes account. But when I try to update my apps or download new software/music my old apple ID comes up and I can't change it. On the itunes store and my settings it shows my new Apple account. How do I stop from my old account from coming up and my new account appearing when I try to download something new?
- To change ID go to Settings>Store and sign out and sign in with the one you want. If you iPod has iOS 5 you may have to also go to Settings>iCloud and sign into the second account.
- Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
- To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account. -
I have an older iPod Touch, Model MC086LL with an IOS software version of 4.2.1. Many of the applictions which I had previously purchased were recently upgraded and they no longer can be loaded on my iPod. What is the fix?
Reload older versions from iTunes on a computer, or buy a newer device.

I have an Ipod touch version 4.2.1 and the instructions do not detail how to update to iOS 5. Can you help me with step by step instructions.
iOS 4.2.1 suggests that you may have 2nd generation Touch, which cannot be updated past iOS 4.2.1
Check http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353 for help in identifying your model. A quicker method may be to check the back casing. If your iPod has Model No.A 1288 etched into it, then it's a 2nd gen Touch.
Assuming that you are using the latest version of iTunes (today, that is 10.6.3), to check if your iPod can be updated, connect it to your iTunes and look on the Device/Summary pane. Select Check for Updates. If there is one, you will see a message telling you that and how to install it. However, if you see a message saying that your iPod is up-to-date, then it cannot be updated. -
i have an old ipod touch with ios5.1.1 is there a way to update to the new version of ios?
If it's a third generation model, no. Otherwise, use the device's Software Update function.

I have an older iPod Touch, I bought a new one and the Itunes on my computer is too old to recognize my new iPod Touch and Itunes cannot be updated. Is there a creditable software program I can use to get all my old music from my old iPod Touch to the new one? It is my understanding that the music cannot be saved onto my new iTunes, b/c I did not have iCloud. I have over 2,000 songs I just cannot part with. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help some how!! THANKS!
I had the same problem with my iPad, i couldn't get the newer version of itunes because the computer was too old and my iPad couldnt sync with the old itunes. I got a PC from school a few months later so that solved the problem for me. Unfortunately i don't think there would be a program to put your music on your iPod, iTunes should be the only way to transfer files to Apple devices. What operating system are you running and what version of it is it?

I have an older iPod Touch. I charge the battery but it drains real fast. Is there a fix for this? How much would it be to replace the battery? I love my iPod but the battery is always dead.
Hello,
I am currently an owner of an Ipod Touch 4th generation, running IOS 6.1.2. I understand you are having problems with your Ipod/Ipad/Iphone, so I will try to find a solution to your problem.
Its an Old Ipod, give me a break... just get a new one, or leave it always plugged in
You could also get a new battery (but its not worth it... just buy a whole new unit) -

I have a 4g ipod touch with tons of problems.
The home button no longer responds and when it does it takes at least 10 minutes of repeatedly clicking it.
When my ipod turns off it takes hours to a day for it to turn back on.
Should i replace it, and if so, how much will that cost?
Is it repairable?I do have service and repair coverage! Thank you for that link
Does that mean I can replace it for no cost or that its just for repair service? -
I have the older ipod touch and iw as windering can it download version 4.3?
I have the older ipod touch and i was wondering can it download version 4.3?
No.
It has to be 3rd or 4th generation.
What generation do you have?
Look on the back of the iPod Touch for one of these numbers.
iPod Touch 1st generation - A1213
iPod Touch 2nd generation - A1288
iPod Touch 3rd generation - A1318
iPod Touch 4th generation - A1367 -

See Here for
Frozen or unresponsive iPod touch
The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
Restart.. Reset.. Restore...
Try this First... You will Not Lose Any Data...
Turn the iPod Off... ( if it isn’t already )
Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
Release the Buttons...
Turn the iPod On...
If that does not help... See Here:

Hey! I have had an Ipod touch for about 7 years and it has always worked! but for some reason i plugged it into my laptop and my computer is recognizing that it is plugged in but my itunes isnt what do I do?
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:

paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

I have just synced my iPod touch with a new pc and cloud, all is well except I no longer have my purchased films and cannot find them. What do I do?
If they are not on the iPod or on the computer they are gone and you will have to repurchase them if you want to play them again. Movies are not one of the categories of iTunes purchases allowed for a free redownload.

Hi Maryan,
Open System Preferences > Displays > select the window for you external monitor > click on the Arrangement tab and check the box next to Mirror Displays. It may be slightly different in Lion, but the idea is the same.
