My iPod touch 2nd generation forced a software update to apply to my ipod via itunes. what effect did this update have on my ipod software, as i still cannot download some apps?
I would appreciate your support to help me figure out if this problem is solvable.
The error comes about whilst trying to download certain apps from the app store, including CSR Racing which when i tap on install a message box pops up saying "This App Is Incompatible With This iPod touch", another time for a different app it came up with a message saying "This app requires OpenGL ES 2.0 graphics capability.
Main questions:
What was achieved from the latest forces iPod touch 2g update (17/07/2012)?
solvable problem(s)?
Will i need to buy a more recent model of iPod touch if this isnt fixable?
ps. My iPod has lasted me 3 years so far so i am not suprised, still in good nick!
thanks, Sim x
i saw something on itunes just a moment ago saying iPod 1g can download 3.1 update for £2.99, will this help with the compatability of the csr racing app at all with that individual problem? |http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2052] (html for this)
i didnt think graphics could change via software updates

IPod touch 2nd generation will not connect to home wifi
My ipod touch 2nd generation will not connect to the internet. I am using a BT modem and this is a new problem. Until recently, I had no problem with this connection and it will connect to BT Fon and BTOpenworld. I just cannot get it to connect at home any more. I also use a macbook pro and this is connected to the bt modem.
You should post this in the iPod Touch forum. This is the iPod Shuffle forum.

HT2052 iOS Software Update for iPod touch (2nd generation)
I am not able to use previous apps on my iPod touch 2nd generation or even install new apps cause of this issue. I find it very messed up that Apple is inputting these restrictions, because they want people to buy the latest versions of their gadgets. Not everyone finds it necessary to buy every new version of every technology or even have the money to do so. It is just really disappointing...
There is nothing unusual about this at all.
As with any tv, computer, dvd player, car,etc the older hardware is simply not capable of running the latest software.
This is normal.

I bought my little brother an iPod touch 2nd generation for Xmas so we could text since we love states away but it won't verify and complete updating so I can download the texting apps required by iOS 4 or later can someone tell me how to update it please
What exactly happens when you try to update the iPod? What does the error message say?
Also, are you sure yo have a 2G iPod?

Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation) -
I have a Ipod Touch 2nd generation. My ipod froze and would not let me restart it. I restored my Ipod but now I can recover my apps. My ipod says I need to upgrade to iOS 5. I have software 4.2. Contacted Apple tech support I was told I should be able to download them. How can I get upgrade and get back my pre-purchased apps.
It sounds like you actually have a 2G iPod Touch, which can only be updated to iOS 4.2.1 and no later. Not only that, but the apps you are trying to install have been updated and now require a higher version of iOS that is not supported on your iPod Touch. If that is the case, you are out of luck, unless you buy a newer iOS device or can recover the older versions of the app that didn't require a later version of iOS. The older versions of the app could still be in your Trash Can/Recycle Bin.
See here to help you verify what generation your iPod Touch is.

I have an Ipod Touch 2nd generation. I bought a Itunes card and when I went to add game apps(like Temple Run) to my Ipod it said I couldn't.Is there a way to upgrade this ipod without having to buy a new one to be able to play the games?
You can update it to 4.2.1
Open itunes, connect ipod. If there is an update available, then it will prompt you to update. -
My Ipod Touch 2nd Generation Froze And Is Trying To Install ALL Of My Apps!
A few hours ago my ipod touch 2nd generation froze, and then it took about 15 minutes to unfreeze. Now it's working very slow. I soon realized that it's trying to istall ALL of my apps I've downloaded since I got my ipod. I had to attempt to shut off the wifi so it would stop. right now over 25 apps are on Pause. I don't want to restore my ipod because I last did a backup about a few months ago. My computer is out of memory, and it's a very slow computer. I recently send an email to apple because of an issue I had with two missing itunes store purchases that it deleted off of my ipod when I connected it with itunes. They never emailed me back and it's been over 24 hours. Could apple be attempting to send me back ALL of the things I've purchased and downloaded with my account? If they are, IT'S NOT FUNNY
- First try restoring from backup
- If problem persists, restore to factory defaults/new iPod
If still a problem you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. -
Ipod touch 2nd Generation can't download Apps?
My nephew was given a ipod touch 4th generation, and so he gave me his ipod touch 2nd generation; after resetting the ipod and setting up an account on itunes, as well as authorising my computer, this ipod can not download apps like angry birds, however it could before! Please explain why this is and how i can fix this?
The 2G can only go as high as 4.2.1
Many developers when they updated their apps to support iOS 5 and 6 dropped compatibility for iOS 4.2.1 and earlier.
Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.

i have an ipod touch 2nd generation, i'm trying to get apps that will work and i cant find any. Its says i need an update because it has ios 3.1.3 , but on itunes it says there is no update ? what apps can i get??
Sounds like you actually have a 1st generation as those cannot update beyond iOS 3.1.3.

If you forgot/do not have your Restrictions passcode the:
- Restore from a backup that was make before you added the Restrictions passcode. If you restore from a backup made with the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode is also restored.
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

Try downloading apps on your iPod (not on your Mac or PC). Apple now permits downloading "last compatible versions" of some apps.

what is the point of the Ipod Touch(2nd generation)?Every single app is not compatible with it.Am I missing something?My cell phone cost 1/2 as much and does way more.This is why I don't normally purchase any apple products.Overpriced flashlight,that's about all it does.
There are still some apps compatible, with the 2G. Also, since September, Apple has now allowed download the last version of apps that were compatible with the 2G but have been updated to no longer be compatibles
To more easily find compatible apps:
iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.

My current laptop is about three years old and got a virus. Had to wipe it clean. Now my Ipod Touch-2nd generation is not recognizing it as the primary original computer and says it is registered on another computer. What can I do to safeguard my library of songs on the Ipodtouch. Any suggestions?
Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your iPod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
Do this:
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your ipod without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your device for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPod for the first time.
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0
