Ipod 1st gen wont update

why is my ipod touch 1st gen stuck on software version 3.1.3 and wont update? I cant download any apps from the market at all.

You are out of luck. The 1G can only go to iOS 3.1.3. Its hardware does not support a higher iOS.

why? it still does what it was advertised to do. you haven't lost any functionality.
I sure hope Apple liked all my money on buy's, rentals, etc on a product that is still working flawlessly, don't understand why they wouldn't make at least one more update in relationship to adding Airplay and Netflix to their 1st generation product.
why should they? should they continue to add functionality until the end of time?
it's a 5 year old product and it's had many updates since then.
you are not entitled to any new updates other than to ensure that it still does what it was originally advertised to do.

I want to understand your point. I think you are saying, that we should buy products that we are told will get better as we do get software updates. Your idea is if it is first we should not trust it to take advantage of newer software? Because if that is the case I must conclude that a 2010 iMac will only do what it what it was advertised to do. So I should not think the next Software update to 10.6 Mac OS 10.7 will not run on it as it was not advertised to do that. Not even a program coming out the day after I buy it? If so I find so much less value +(the usefulness of something considered in respect of a particular purpose)+ in that product. That means I don't buy then Apple is happy? I am I right or did I misunderstand you?

IPod 1st generation software update issue

I was updating my iPod touch 1st generation to the iOS 3.1 software... it downloaded fine but then my iPod screen froze on the apple symbol with a processing bar half way full underneath. And also iTunes freezes up when it's plugged in now. I've powered down my iPod multiple times and it starts back up but has the same screen. iTunes works when it's not plugged in, but as soon as I plug it in it freezes and I have to force quit. Please help

Why aren't there anymore updates for the ipod 1st gen?

Why aren't there anymore updates for the ipod 1st gen? I can barely do anything on it now and it would be a waste . its only 4.2.1 just make it to ios 5

Because the hardware will not support a higher iOS.

Simple Question : iPod for Mac Software Updater

I cant seem to find the "iPod for Mac Software Updater" can someone provide a link?
From the FAQ : "You can convert an iPod formatted for Windows into an iPod for Mac by using the iPod for Mac Software Updater on the Apple website. Note that once it is reformatted, it will only work with Macs. You need Mac OS 9.2 or Mac OS X 10.1 or later to reformat an iPod for Windows into an iPod for Mac."
Thank you!

One link as requested at the bottom of the page you just select your operating system and press the download button: iPod Updater

IPod 1st Gen Connection?

So recently I got a iPod 1st Gen (w/ Scroll Wheel) thats 5GB. And I also got a Firewire Card for my PC. My iPod is already Windows Formatted. Anyway I'm trying to sync music to it on my PC. But its not getting recognized in Windows Explorer (not on any drive in My Computer). Whenever I connect it, it says "Ok to Disconnect" with the check and it recharges. It won't show up on my computer. Can anyone help? And yes I've already read this article entitled "iPod missing in "My Computer" or in iTunes for Windows."

seems it could be problem with the firewire card's driver.

A simple Google search for iPod battery replacement should give you a number of results to work with.

I updated to ios 6 on my iPod touch earlier and had the same issue. I think iCloud has been backing mine up though. I freaked out because all 500 of my photos were gone and my stupid self didnt do a back up... But then they all reappeared :..) Maybe i just got lucky? Good luck though..

Photos from iPod 1st gen to mac?

Hey there I just found my old iPod 1st Gen and there are endless old pictures on it and
i tryed to get the pictures on my iPhoto but the iPod won't show up. I have backed up the iPod to be save atleast but
is there a way to get all pictures on my Mac? Thanks

Since the photos were likely synced to the iPod, you need a third-party program to get synced photos from an iPod to a computer. Some programs are TouchCopy and PhoneView. The free iFunBox MAY work too.

Software Update Questions

Hi everybody,
I'm still relatively green in the computer world, so, I'm sure these questions are way to "rookie" for you. Nevertheless; here they are.
Software Update Questions:
1. What is J2SE 5.0 Release 4, version 4.0 (39.3 MB) and, is it necessary to install?
2. What is X11 Update 2006, version 1.1.2 (51.0 MB) and, is it necessary to install?
In case you need to know, I have Mac OS X (10.4.8) with a Verizon FIOS connection.
Thanks,
Wayhun
iMac Mac OS X (10.4.8)

J2SE 5.0 is the latest version of Java. Mac OS X originally ships with Java 1.4 and this gives you the opportunity to upgrade to the latest version.
It's an optional upgrade since there are many changes between Java 1.4 and java 5, so some people might prefer to hold off until they've verified their Java apps work with the new version. For most people, though, it isn't an issue.
X11 (also known as XWindows) is a standard GUI interface for Unix systems. If you're using X11 you'd probably alredy know about it and therefore wouldn't be asking this question. It's not going to cause any problems if you update it, but it won't offer any advantage unless you're running X11-based applications.
