Hi ..
It depends on which generation iPod touch you have whether you can update.
The versions on the right are as far as the iOS software can be updated to for each generation.
iPod Touch 1                               iOS 3.1.3
iPod Touch 2                               iOS 4.2.1
iPod Touch 3                               iOS 5.1.1
iPod Touch 4                               iOS 6.1.x
iPod Touch 5                               iOS 6.1.x

  • What to do if you've lost your iPod Touch, and it has a Passcode? Please help!

    I need some major help!
    My iPod Touch has been misplaced by me. It has a passcode. I have it set to where it automatically asks to connect to Wi-Fi when around the Wi-Fi, but since it has a passcode lock, I doubt that will happen in the lock screen. I put it into lost mode on Find my iPod/iPhone, but it's pending and must connect to Wi-Fi to begin anything I remotely do.
    Can anybody help me out?

    - The FindMyPhone app only allows you to locate one iOS device using another iOS device.
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod (Settings>iCloud) and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and and go to FIndMyiPhone. You can also wipe the device, and have it play a sound .If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - Apple will do nothing

    I  need help to unjailbreak my iPod Touch now. I need assistance. Please help me!

    Jailbreaking voids the Apple warranty and also means that you will not get any support from Apple, including from this Apple forum. Jailbreaking can't be discussed in this Apple forum.
    Unauthorized modification of iOS has been a major source of instability, disruption of services, and other issues

  • My iPod Touch's screen has turned pale blue. Help?

    My iPod Touch is still newly brought, just a few days old and whilst I was trying to charge it, the screen went to a pale blue. I tried switched it off with the "Wake/Sleep" and home button pressed together at the same time and took out the charger. After 10 seconds, it turns on with the apple logo but then, after a few seconds/minutes it turns back to pale blue. I'm going around in circles and my battery is on low charge.

    It seem's that this a major problem and my best advice would be to create a meeting at your local Apple Store's Genius Bar. If you're not sure how to do this, ask me!

  • My iPod Touch will not update... Please help me!

    I have an iPod Touch 8gb model MC540LL and it will not update.  My iTunes program is 10.6 but every time I attempt to download and update the iPod I get the same message "The network connection could not be established." I've tried almost everything I know, even resetting the iPod's factory settings, but that won't work either, it recieves the same infernal message.  Does anyone have any idea what could be happening?
    Oh!  And the iPod acts like it no longer has iTunes on it.

    If not successful also try changeint he DNS. See.

    Howevr, it could be just a server problem overy which you can do nothing.

  • My computer (windows XP) nor itunes is recognizing my 4g Ipod touch and I need to restore it. please help...

    So today I decided to change my Itouch password. After realizing the code was an awkward movement for my fingers I changed it to something easier. HOWEVER I ended up forgetting the code and locking myself out. I then learned I had to recover my ipod, which I wasn't to worried about thanks to iCloud, but my computer nor itunes will recognize it. I usually do all my itunes stuff on my friends computer and I already did the msconfig thingy. Please help, i"ve been at this since 8:00 pm

    If your iPod Touch does not have volume buttons on the left side then it is a first generation and iOS 3.1.3 is as far as you can go.  If tou have volume buttons, you can go higher using iTunes,

  • Ipod touch built-in speakers wont work anymore. please help

    Like I said my ipod touch built in speakers wont work now yesterday I was able to hear and use them when I was using the pianist app from the itunes store and it worked fine and today I redownloaded the digidrummer lite app since my old one for some reason didnt work and once I did download the app I synced to my ipod and tried to play and noticed that no sound came out so I tried other apps and also my music and also no sound. with headphones connected it works fine sound comes out and all.

    K, so last night I tried the home+sleep/wake button hold thing and reset it that way and also just normal shutoffs which didnt fix it and also tried the ideas that you guys said and no go. everynow and then it would make the sound when I unlock it. so i just left it on and let the battery die see if that would do something it got to 10% and shuts off i guess so then i charged it on my stereo system with an ipod dock and was listening to music then i disconected it and to my suprise it started playing through the internal speakers again. I was skeptical at first so I turned it off and tried again it worked. so i went to the app that I think caused the problem in the first place called digidrummer lite I was able to hear the drums tom toms etc went to the home menu tried again played that app once more but this time there was no sound. I went to my music and everynow and then it would play but fade out or not play at all. so I took digidrummer off and so far the speakers are working again but I will still need to test them more.
