IPod touch 4th Gen will not update to iOS 4.3.3. How can i fix this?

I have an ipod 4th generation and i want to update to ios 4.3.3. Every time i try to install the update itunes gives an error saying " iPod could not be updated and that the device isn't eligible for the requested build. This is a new ipod and i had to send it in for repair once because the wake button stopped working. Ever since i received my ipod back i had the problem of not being able to update to iOS 4.3.3. I've tried the suggestions on the help section but none of them worked. How can i fix it so that i can update.? Thank you all in advance

Sync via the manual method. Go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.

TS3274 My iPad wont turn on it just shows the apple icon and never goes to my lock screen. But when i push the home and lock button it works

Please help

Well have you tried holding down on both buttons until the Apple Logo appears on the screen again? Hold both buttons down for about 10 seconds or so and when the Apple logo appears on the screen again, let go of the buttons.

Error 1604
This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, using a different dock connector to USB cable, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections. If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for the error.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while the device remains connected.
The device should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.

Ipod Touch 4th gen wont turn on, or install drivers properly...

I Have an Ipod I had recived from my cousin to try and fix. The Ipod does not turn on but the first time I plugged it in, the drivers installed correclty, but I could not restore it (error 1600) Then I tried DFU mode, that didnt work. So I then uninstalled the driver to try and re-install it, now it shows up as 'Apple Mobile Device (DFU Mode)' with a yellow exclamation mark and won't properly install the driver or show up in Itunes. Any ideas on getting the Ipod out of DFU and properly reinstalling the drivers? I've already tried re-installing Itunes for this. I have also tried every possible solution on this website for the 1600 error. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

How long did you hold the buttons? Keep holding them until the Apple logo comes on. May take up to 30-sec. As far as Apple changing you, if it's under a year old, them may do it for free.

Help my ipod touch 4th gen. wont turn on it wont even show the symbol to say its dead Help im really scared and if its broke i cannot afford another one!

Connect it to a wall charger for at least 30 minutes. After that time, while it is still connected to the charger, Reset it by holding down the sleep and home buttons until you see the Apple logo, then let go of the buttons. Might take a few tries.

My ipod touch 4th Gen doesn't give "System update" option in General settings, how can i fix it?

My gf gave me her old ipod touch. the 4th gen one with the front facing camera, the version is 4.3.3 and I'm trying to update it, but when I go into "general" and right under the "about" option it should give me the "system update" option but it doesn't, is there a reason for that?

That option won’t appear in iOS versions prior to 5.0; update it from iTunes on a computer as described at the bottom of this article. It can only be updated directly to the newest iOS release supported by the device’s hardware.
The maximum iOS version for the fourth generation iPod touch and iPhone 3GS is 6.1.6.

The home button on my iPod Touch 4th gen is starting to become hard to press, is there any way to fix this? Or at least replace the home button?

This is just a general question, because I've had my 2nd gen ipod for way longer and i have no problems with any of its buttons. i just bought this one in August 2011

ICould is forcing songs from my library onto my iPod touch 5th gen, and they can't be deleted or removed. How do I fix this?

I share a library with my parents, and some of their songs are apparently stored in the iCloud. These songs are showing up in the library on my device with the cloud image next to them, giving me the option to download them from the cloud, but they are already on my device. They play when I shuffle through my library, which is something they shouldn't do if I haven't downloaded them, right? I've tried going to the setting and shutting off the show all songs and all that does is show the same songs as of they are downloaded onto my iPod (which they are). I just want these songs off of my device. How would I go about accomplishing this?

Hi Kkuppertz,
Welcome to the Support Communities! If the songs reside on your iPhone, you should be able to delete them per the instructions below. If you see the download icon, you may need to actually download the song before you can actually delete it from your iPhone. Click on the link below for complete details. I've highlighted the part that pertains to deleting songs.
How to delete content you've downloaded from the iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store - Apple Support
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT5772
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
Tap the Music app.
Tap the Songs category.
Swipe left over the song you want to delete.
Tap Delete.
I hope this information helps ....
