My 1st Gen won't update to iOS 3? :(

So, I've been trying to update my 1st Gen to the iOS 3 so I can use apps, and for whatever reason my iTunes not only deleted everything from my iPod, but won't update to the new iOS. So now I have an iPod Touch that doesn't work, and I'm out 5 bucks for the iOS that won't even work because of an 'unknown error.' Has anyone heard of this or know how to fix it... or why it's not working? Anything?
Oh, and by the way, I have the latest version of iTunes and everything like that, and I followed all the support steps on Apple's website.

I don't know what I did since I did everything I already tried before, but I fixed it. So nevermind. Sorry for the pointless thread.

  • Ipod Touch 1st gen won't update

    My friend just recently gave me an ipod touch and I wanted one strictly for apps but since this thing is so old it doesn't even have 2.0 on it. For some reason when I plug it in it says it is up to date with 1.1.5. Now I know that is a lie since OS4 is out and the 1st gen touches went up to 3.x. Is there anything I can do to update my ipod? I really wanna play some awesome games. Thanks.

  • IPod Touch (4th Gen) Won't Update Past iOS 6.1.6

    I have an iPod Touch (4th Generation). I'm trying to connect to Family Share but it needs to be updated to iOS 8. My iPod is saying it's up-to-date at iOS 6.1.6.
    I have tried updating directly from the iPod (Settings > General > Software Updates) and I've also connected it to my Mac OS X Yosemite / iTunes 12.01.126 with no luck. Nothing is recognizing that this device needs to be updated.
    How can I update this iPod to iOS 8?

    you have the latest version available

  • My iPod touch 3rd gen won't update to iOS 5

    iTunes keeps displaying the message saying that I have the latest update. I have iTunes 10.5 installed and everything, it's just that the iOS update won't come through. I currently have iOS 4.2 on my iPod. Any help is appreciated.

    If your iPod Touch is 8GB than it is actually a 2nd gen and the highest it can go is iOS level 4.2.1.

  • IPod Touch 1st gen won't update past 2.2.1 ?

    I have a first generation iPod Touch running iOS version 2.2.1, and the most recent iTunes 9.2.1 running on Windows 7.
    When I click "Check version" on iTunes it says that 2.2.1 is the latest version and that my iPod is up to date. I realize 1st generation iPod Touches are not supported with iOS 4 but I'd like to upgrade to 3.x since more and more apps require that to work.
    Is this a bug in Apple's part or am I not allowed to upgrade to 3.x anymore?

    My MacAir 1st gen. won't boot after latest OS X Lion update. tried safe boot(didn't work) tried disk repair, said it was successful, but my mac won't start up. Just get white screen.  Also been having trouble with it overheating. Fan seems to work. But when it get too hot whole interface slows down.

    Yikes, I hope you have AppleCare on it still, I think it needs to be taken in, but as a last ditch effort...
    Have you done a PRAM reset, CMD+Option+p+r...

    If you are using IOS 4, you need to connect to iTune (computer) to update software.

    Okay , you should only delete EMPTY DUPLICATED folders, not preview folders or any others. I would put them all back. Then just delete any DUPLICATED EMPTY folders, do not disturb any other folders. On iOS switch off DOCUMENTS AND DATA under ICLOUD in SETTINGS. Do this on all iOS devices not just the one. Once deleted DUPLICATE FOLDERS on the mac in MOBILE FOLDERS then exit the LIBRARY. Open PAGES on your MAC and view folders on icloud. Check everything is all there as expected. If okay then DELETE and re-install PAGES app on iOS - THEN switch on DATA and DOCUMENTS in ICLOUD. Now open PAGES. If you have Time Machine on you can recover any 'lost' doc files and restore them from your mac from pages application. Try the process again and do not disturb any folders other than ones I mentioned as this is the system files LIBRARY. It is not a place to be over zealous in moving, altering and deleting folders and files. Take care please.

  • IPod Touch 3rd generation won't update to iOS 5

    My sister has an iPod Touch 3 and it won't update to iOS 5. Everytime I check for an update, it says "This version of the iPod software (4.2.1) is the current version". The apple website even says 3rd gen is compatible. Any help?

    More than likely, the iPod is a 2nd generation one, in which case iOS 4.2.1 is as high as it can go. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353 to identify which model your sister owns.
    (8GB or 16GB - it's 2nd gen. If it's a 32GB Touch you definitely need to check the linked page.)
