Is it true that iPod 2g cannot go past iOS 4.2.1?

Seriously, I need confirmation of this. MORE IMPORTANTLY, I need an explanation from support or a MOD regarding WHY. I get if it is truly a hardware issue.
But that does not excuse the sudden disappearance of support for my device. Suddenly, many apps that I use regularly reuire iOS 4.3 or better.
So, Apple and it's vendors are purposefully just going to throw all us millions of 2g owners under the bus?
Really?

Yes, 4.2.1 is the end of the line. Apple is not on these forums so you will not get a reply from them.

  • Is it true that Apple is now pushing out iOS 7 updates to devices automatically and without a users' permission?

    Is it true that Apple is now pushing out iOS 7 updates to devices automatically and without a users’ permission?

    Some people say that it has downloaded automatically when their phone is plugged in and connected to Wi-Fi, but I have left my phone and other iOS devices plugged in overnight several times since the iOS 7 release and have not experienced the same.

  • Is it true that iPod and QT has a file size limit of 1.2GB?

    I just purchased the DVD to iPod converter from Xilisoft. I converted a movie that resulted in a 2.371 GB file. When I tried to import it to iTunes, nothing happens. When I try to open it, it gives me a error message "Error -2048: file is not a movie file". Xilisoft support claims that iPod and QT have a limit of 1.2GB for their files. Has anyone successfully loaded a larger movie file into iTunes/iPod or viewed it on QT?
    Thanks

  • I cannot download the IOS 5 with Itunes to update my iphone 4. I dont want to restore the iphone because I am afraid that the itunes cannot download the ios 5 and then I will be with no iphone.

    I cannot download the IOS 5 with Itunes. Always appear this message ( err= -3259) what can I do to solve this problem?

    It's a connection timeout error. Google for a copy of iOS 5.0.1 and download it to your computer. Prepare to restore your iPhone but hold down Option (Mac) or Shift (Windows) when clicking Restore to bring up an explorer where you can manually install iOS 5.0.1 on your device, since you do not require a full download from the Apple Servers other than to verify your iOS build being installed.

  • HT4623 If I don't have a software update option, does that mean I cannot update to iOS 5?

    I do not have a software update option in my settings.  Does this mean I cannot update my iOS version?

    The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

  • Is it true that Sky channels cannot be mirrored to a TV using Apple TV?

    I am told that some or all Sky channels cannot be mirrored from iPad to TV using Apple TV. Is this correct? If not, why is it not working?

    In Acrobat Pro 7-10 (I think) it was possible to save an Acrobat Form with extended rights to enable saving a form including the field-contents with acrobat reader.
    To use this feature for more then 500 individual users / returned filled forms you had to optain special licences or use adobe lifecycle server (according to the EULA of Adobe Acrobat).
    As far as I understand, any form created with any adobe pro-Version is saveable inlcuding it's filled-in contents with adobe reader 11 (again, as reader 5 was able to do that aswell long time ago...).
    So is there any need for special payed licences (like per-form licences or adobe lifecycle servers) any more for providing fillable forms on a company website (i. e. unknown number of potential users / returned filled forms)?
    edit:
    Is there any legal difference according to that 500-forms-limitation between receiving the extend forms as email-attachement, printed form and according to the way the returned forms are processed (i. e. scanning those forms, reading those forms with acrobat pro or any other reader-client)?
    Thanks in advance for your reply!
    Sincerely

  • Is true that I need to charge my ipod 5G 12 hours for the first time?

    Is true that I need to charge my ipod 5G 12 hours for the first time? Help me please

    No, you need to charge until the battery shows it is fully charged...that can take only a couple hours depending on how far you have discharged it.  You do not need to discharge the iPod all the way and then recharge...plug it in when convenient and top up that battery.  Plug it in at night so it is charged in the morning.
    You cannot overcharge the battery, the charging circuit shutsdown when the battery is fully charged so you cannot harm it leaving it plugged in.

  • I have bought some movies and the don't sync to my iPod touch it comes up with this message that says it cannot be played on my iPod. Please can someone help

    I have brought some movies and they just come up with this message that says it cannot be played on this iPod. I've bought movies before without iTunes Extras but these have iTunes extras and they don't want to sync with my iPod
    Does anyone know what is wrong?

    Sounds like you are trying to sync the HD version of the video.  You should try to download the Standard Definition copy instead and sync that to your device as HD content is only compatible with the 4G iPod Touch.  See here for more information:
    iTunes: May be unable to transfer videos to iPhone, iPad, or iPod
    To prevent HD versions from being downloaded in the future head to the iTunes Store, click the Purchased link, and then select TV Shows and remove the tick mark next to Download HD when available.  You should be able to download the SD version now from under this same page.

  • ITunes tells me that my iPod Touch cannot be synced because there is enough memory availble

    I have a fourth generation 32GB iPod touch. At the end of the sync, it tells me that the sync cannot be finished because there is not enough memory availble. I do hav enough mmory availble. I have 2.3GB of music, 0.23GB of video, 0.06GB of photos, 7GB of apps, 0.69GB of "other", and 18.3GB of free space. What should I do?

    Are you sure that you are only syncing checked items and not your entire iTunes library?
    Does it say oow much more storage you need?
    Try syncing less.
    Try:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - 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.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

  • Once I downloaded the new IOS 5.0 I've lost all of my photos that were stored on my PC, and I no longer have access to them on the IPOD.  Cannot figure out what has happened.  Please help.

    Once I downloaded the new IOS 5.0 I've lost all of my photos that were stored on my PC, and I no longer have access to them on the IPOD.  Cannot figure out what has happened.  Please help.

    Thanks lllaass, but I am not computer literate and do not understand exactly what it is I am supposed to do.  All of my photos were stored on Microsoft Windows Live Photo Gallery.  When I now access the gallery the only thing that is there are the folders with the title of the folders.  The pictures that were in those folders are now gone. I can no longer access them on my IPOD either.  My photo library on my IPOD is now empty. 
    Thanks again for your help.

  • Is it true that the ipod touch 5th gen bends on its own? I mean if i put it in my front pocket or in my bag?

    so I just got a new itouch 5g cause a lot of people said it was great and they've said that it has a stronger build than that of the 4g. So is it true that if I put my touch in my front pocket it will bend on its own? cosidering that maybe I wear pants that have tight pockets.

    I've not seen any objective comparisons that tested the bend resistance, so I can't offer any sort of opinion. I would expect either iPod to be subject to bending if kept in your pocket when you sit down. That's a lot of stress and leverage. I've even seen keys bend, and they're harder to bend than an electronic device.
    My advice; don't keep your iPod in your pocket.
    Regards.

    Yes you can drag and drop music to the iPiod if you select Manually Manage Music and Videos in  iTunes.
