Ipod  touch (4 gen) wont install upgrade

I am using the most up to date itunes.
I go to sync the ipod, get the update option, all good.
Upgrade starts to download, takes a good 15 mins , going well.
Download completes, starts installation of upgrade, get a network timed out error, all goes to ****

I did
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
then tried
Reset all settings     
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
and if I have to restore the ipod to factory I may just cry!
! tried unpluging the dock and will leave it for 15mins is that does not work I will go to the store and see about replaceing the dock and then IF I have to I will then restore it but if anyone has any ideas that are simpler please let me know!

  • My Ipod touch 5th Gen wont turn on or charge...

    My week old Ipod touch 5th gen. wont turn on or charge. When it is connected to the computer or a charger it shows the dead battery symbol and never charges even if left connected for over and hour.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

  • My ipod touch 4th gen wont turn on or charge and is in recovery mode.

    my ipod touch 4th gen wont turn on or charge and it is in recovery mode but when it says preparing to restore it on itunes when i plug it up then the ipod disconnects from the computer and just shuts off again help me please. when it does act like its going to charge it doesnt charge and just brings up the "connect to itunes" thing.

    Error 1604
    This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for the error.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
    The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.

    Try:

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    I have an issue, running Windows XP and I don't have the location where the backup's are stored on my pc: Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\.  What I do have is the following: Documents and Settings\(username)\ there's a AppData folder followed by:\LocalLow\DataMngr\ .

    In iTunes, Edit, Preference, Device there are no backups.

  • My ipod touch 5th gen wont connect to updated itunes but is recognized on my computer, help!

    Just brought a new ipod touch 5th gen, and when i connect it with my cable on my windows 8 hp laptop it will recognise it on my laptop in my computer but it won't connect with itunes. I have the latest version of itunes, and have tried reinstalling it three times, along with following the apple help sections but nothing has worked. It connects on other mac, and pc's itunes however and believe it is a problem with windows 8. Anyone having this problem or know how to help? thanks

    If you mean playing music from your computer's speakers that that work if you computer can act as a bluetooth receiver (like BT speakers and headphones) since the iPod can transmit music using the A2DP BT profile.
    On the iPod go to Settings>General>Reset> Reset Network Settings and try again. You will also have to rejoin all wifi networks
