I'm trying to update my ipod touch 3g to the ios 5 and it starts, but once it reaches around 300 MB the download stops. Can anyone help??
just like the title says, I get about halfway done w/ the update..and it just stops and says the connection timed out...any idea what's wrong?? im trying to update from ios 3.1.2
Have you tried disabling the computer's security software during the download and update?

So I have tried to update my iPod touch about 5 times now and it still says there is an error. I,ve erased all my settings and attempted to restore it, but it wont let me. I'm ready to throw it away and find a new product
Errors when updating leads to corrupt system files and this may be your problem. If you're using windows, connect your device to PC and run any third party app like Syncios. If it detects, you maybe in luck and try to back-up your data if possible. I hope that it won't and if doesn't, there is no other way to recover files. You should be restoring with iTunes and all data will be erased, or else your device may become unusable.

I have been trying to update my IPod touch 4g to IOS 5, but I tunes does not recognize it and says it is up to date. When I Updated my other touch yesterday every thing worked great. but this one does not seem to want to go beyond 4.2.1(8C148)
Ok make sure you have iTunes 11. Then connect iPod touch to computer then iTunes should pop up automatically. After it opens on the bottom left there should be a tab where it says your name and then iPod. For example (Johns iPod) click on that then it brings all your information of the iPod including restore and updating.
Dont worry -
I was updating my ipod touch 64gb with the new operation softwere, there was a problem, and the itunes message showed that I had to restaure. When I try to restaure the follow message appear '' The apple site is not available" I tried to use the existent procedures without sucess. What sould I do?
If the message said can not contact the update server:
Try:
- Powering off and then back on your router.
- iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
- Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
Public DNS — Google Developers
OpenDNS IP Addresses
- Try on another computer/network
- Wait if it is an Apple problem
Otherwise I do not understand the problem. -
HT201210 I've tried to update my Ipod touch

Did you do this
Manually install it by holding your "Option/Alt" key down when clicking on the "Restore" button in iTunes and select the firmware file you downloaded. -

I tried to update my ipod touch software by syncing with itunes and it put the ipod into "recovery mode". Seems like the only option is to restore? Is there a way to get it out of recovery mode?
No.
Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

I have tried to update my iPod Touch 4G to the latest update, I currently have iOS 4.1. After the 4 hours an error message appears saying iTunes had lost connection even when I am fully connected to the internet. I have repeated the update 4 times now with not luck. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance
AdamIf you get a network timed out error, try disabling the security software on the computer during the download and install.
You can also try a direct download andinstall by:

I have just tried to update my ipod touch and the update failed but it has locked my ipod. All I get is a picture of the itunes logo and the usb lead. I am unable to get the ipod to move and I don't know what to do. I think I should be recompenced by Apple if I have to pay to get it fixed!
The logo is saying connect it to your computer with iTunes installed on the computer. I assume when yo do this that the iPod is not seen in iTunes. to make iTunes appear try:
- Resetting the iPod:
Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Place the iPod in recovery mode. See:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
- Place the iPod in DFU mode:
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
If the iPod appears in iTunes restore the iPOd. If not I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. -
