Itunes is saying that my software is too old but it is up-to-date

i have a 60gb photo ipod running version 1.2.1
i just downloaded a bunch of songs off of the music store and when i went to put them onto my ipod, i got a message that some of the song could not be added because my software was too old. (but it is not).
help!

What version of iTunes are you using?
I think you may have meant 1.1.2 for the iPod software, rather than 1.2.1... unless the 30gb video iPod software (my model) is different to the 60gb model.
6.0.5 is the latest iTunes version (on a non-intel Mac).

    If you bought it on your computer's iTunes then it will have downloaded to the Books section of your computer's iTunes library. You should be able to sync it to the iBooks by connecting and selecting the iPad on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (on iTunes 11 you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC) and then on the Books tab on the right-hand side of the screen selecting and syncing that book. Or you should also be able to re-download it directly on the iPad via the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the iBooks app - it should sync/download to the Books collection in the app.

  • My computer broke and I got it fixed. It doesn't say that the hard-drive was replaced, but I can tell my data is gone, including Pages that I bought. Is there any way of getting that without paying for it again?

    Or if you purchased Pages as part of iWork on a disk, reinstall from the same disk.
    Best of luck.

  • HT201269 WHEN i DO THIS IT TELLS ME THAT THE SOFTWARE IS TOO OLD. THAT I MUST START  AS NEW PHONE. SO HOW DO I USE THE BACKUP?

    I backed up my iphone 5 in itunes. I am now trying to restore to my new iphone 5S.  It tells me it cannot restore because software is too old.  To start as new iphone.  If I do this how do I restore my information?

    Backup from a later IOS version cannot be used to restore on iPhone with a earlier IOS version.
    You need to update the iPhone to the latest IOS 7.1 version first before you can restore the backup.

  • Old issue re-emerges: "iPod Software is too old" - but update not available

    I found this issue discussed in October 2005, but the suggested fix then doesn't seem to work now.
    Today, for the first time, I got an error when syncing my iPod, stating that some music could not be synced because my iPod software is too old. Of course, when I click the update button, it says I have the most recent version. If I try syncing again, I get the same error.
    I have iTunes 7.1.1, and iPod software v. 3.1.1
    I've even tried restoring the iPod, but when I try that it says that my iPod cannot be found... which of course is nonsense because iTunes was just syncing with it and it's visible in the Devices list.
    Any suggestions?

    Some more info on the problem --
    Possibly related, possibly not -- the iPod has also been freezing periodically. Usually it happens while starting up or shortly after. If I put the iPod up to my ear, I can hear the drive whir then click and stop, and repeat. I've found that hitting the iPod can sometimes change the sound the drive makes, but I don't think it ever brought the drive back to life. Getting it back from being frozen seems random but does happen. Usually it was by restoring (before this "iPod Software is too old" problem began). This morning, when I plugged it in to check to make sure it saw the model correctly, it took 3 tries to start up (the first two times it brought up the unhappy iPod image, but then immediately went back to the apple and tried again).
    I purchased the iPod refurbished from the apple site a little less than a year ago. It's a Click Wheel, B/W screen... I think that's a 4th generation, but I don't want to misrepresent it.
    Should I just take it in to the nearest Apple Store and get their genius bar to look at it? Frankly, I'm stumped.

  • "iPod software is too old" but is shown as "up to date."

    I purhased a movie through ITS. The purchase, download and playback work well on my desktop Mac. But when I have my iPod attached to my Mac, I get this message in a dialog box:
    "Some of the items in the iTunes library were not copied to the iPod ... because your software is too old. Go to the Summary taba in iPod preferences [in iTunes 7] and click Update to get the latest software update."
    But when I do that, the sofware version is accurately listed as 1.1.2, a message below says "You iPod is up to date." and the "Update" button is disabled.
    This movie is the only new item I have put into my iTunes library since I upgraded to iTunes 7, and consistent with the dialog box, the movie is not on my iPod. How can I move it to my iPod? Has anyone else had this experience?

    Spent a 1/2 hour stuck on this one myself. The problem is pretty unApple, but the fix is easy enough.
    The iPod does need an update to v1.2 to upload. If you, like me, figured that Software Update would get you the neccesary update, you are mislead. Or if you figured it would download with iTunes 7, well then welcome back to my 1/2 hour of pain.
    Get the software by going to iTunes prefs in the General panel and look towards the bottom. Click Check for Updates Automatically, then Ok. Then go back to your iPod window in iTunes and Update will be available.
    Once your iPod software is updated and restarted, you'll be on your way to enjoying your downloaded media.

    You might do better posting in the TC forum here:
    http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1253
    You should also update your profile unless you are using 10.5.0, which may be part of the problem, if true.

  • "iPod Software is too old" - but update not available

    ITunes v5.0.1
    iPod - v2.3
    Attempting to synch between iPod and computer, message:
    "You will not be able to copy songs purchased from the ...because your iPod software is too old...get the latest...."
    I get the 'latest' (which afaik i already have) and it will not install, package choices are greyed out.
    Help?

    I found the solution on the discussion board at macosxhints.com.
    You need to launch the iPod updater from inside the updater folder.
    Open Applications>Utilities>iPod Software Updater (I had several folders called "iPod Software Updater" with version numbers in it, choose the one without any numbers. The modified date should be the most recent too.) Select the most recent updater in that folder (should be "iPod Updater 2005-09-23"). Double-click on it.
    Ignore the screen that pops up with all of the pictures of the iPod models, and click "update" on the other window. Presto.

    Hi guys, hope u can help me, i bought a movie from itunes a few months ago, and i´ve played it before in my laptop (Toshiba Satellite L755D) with windows 7 home premium, i have my Bill in my e-mail, but when i try to play it now, it won´t! a message comes back with a legend saying something like this: "To play avengers hd you must have an integrated screen that allows hdcp" but i´ve played it before tons of times!!! whats wrong..? and when i go to the store and point an error on the selected item (avengers hd) it says that my search has no results!!! please help me :-( is not fair that i spend almost 20$ for something that it´s just not working anymore!!!

    Movies are not always available for redownload.  Is there a reason why you deleted it instead of simply transferring the purchase to the computer and then removing it from the iDevice?

    I accidentally deleted an album from my itunes library and i want to buy it again but itunes is saying that i have already purchased it but i don't have it in my library. How do i buy the album again?

    Sorry, but audiobooks cannot be downloaded more than once without charge, so if you don't have a viable backup, you may be out of luck. You can, however, contact the iTunes Store, explain the situation, and see if they can make an exception for you.

    Where was the iPhone purchased?
    Did you open the packaging and activate the iPhone or was this done at the store where it was purchased?
    Was the iPhone activated by connecting the iPhone to a computer at the store or elsewhere?
    Has anyone else used your iPhone or has it been connected to a computer besides your own?
    You sign out of an existing Apple ID by going to Settings > iTunes & App Stores. Select the Apple ID at the top and select Sign Out. Sign in with your Apple ID at the same location.

  • Latest Software is "Too Old"?

    Hi, I recently downloaded a bunch of songs from the iTunes music store, and attempted to copy them to my iPod. My computer informed me that my software was too old and directed me to where I could get the updater.
    Now my iPod's software is the most recent available, and my computer still says it's "Too old."
    This only effects music store purchases, both old and new, not anything else.
    Anyone know how to fix this?

    I have not tried it because i have not had time. But
    you guys can post back and tell me how it goes. I
    have a hp ipod 20gb if that makes a difference. This
    software is for windows so if you have a mac use this

    I thought it was odd that it told me it was old and
    then under the summary tab the update button is not
    availible and it says it is up to date.
    This appears to be just a link to the most recent iPod updater. If your computer is telling you your iPod is up to date, you probably already have it installed.

  • HT1338 My iTunes won't let me connect my iPhone because it says I need an updated iTunes, but when I try to download the new iTunes, it says that my Mac software (10.5.8) is too old. However, there are no software updates available. What can I do?

    It depends on what iPhone you have.
    If it's an iPhone 4S or earlier, click here.
    If it's an iPhone 5, you need to buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD, and that requires an Intel Mac with at least 1GB RAM.
