No, you have to update to iOS 5 via iTunes/USB. One you get iOS you can further update via wifi.

I accidently pressed the home button, sleep/wake up button and the up volume button on my ipod touch 4 gen and it turned on and then off and wont turn on. can someone please help?
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

IPod Touch will not connect to iTunes, please help..
I purchased an iPod Touch yesterday. I synced it up to iTunes, everything fine. After disconnecting and then reconnecting later I found that the computer didn't recongize it and it did nothing but charge the iPod. I've tried many times, all to either have it do nothing, crash iTunes, or give me the message "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone because of an unknown error (0xE8000001)". I've tried reinstalling iTunes, the whole Apple Device Service, the USB problems.. everything. I have USB 2.0, Version 1.1.2 of the iPod, and iTunes version 7.5. Please, please try and answer my problem.
I've also restored using a friends computer, it works fine the first sync after I restore on his comp, but after that it does what I described above.
Please helpI was having the same problem but what I made was:
Conect iPod Touch into a USB port but from the back of the PC
Then *shut dawn* the iPod no lock *shut dawn*
then reinstall iTunes (it has to be iTunes 7.5 o later)
open iTunes
turn on iPod Touch
and it most work
o restart your PC and try again -
My ipod touch will not connect to itunes.
I have tried every possible solution I can find on the web, I have followed the tutorials about 5 times on the support site, and this is what happens. (This started after a recent update).
If I click on the App store icon I get a message that says "cannot connect to itunes store" and the only option is to press the "OK" button.
When I click on the ITunes icon it brings me to a web page that has at the top Apple-I Tunes-Affiliates. I believe I got to that screen by trying to uninstall and reinstall ITunes on it. I can do searches from there just like I was on this same web site on my ITouch, but no ITunes.
I can get on the internet for everything else with no problem with it.
I have downloaded the latest version of everything. Today I did the most up to date download and the device updated and restarted...the whole shebang, so I was really excited and thought I had it taken care of but it is still doing the same thing.
So in summary. When I try to access ITunes from my IPOD Touch it just brings me to the Apple Web site, and I can't find out to get to ITunes from there.
When App store icon is pressed it says cannot connect to itunes store.
This is driving me craze. This thing is only a few months old, but with no warranty as it is a replacement for another one that bit the dust.
My version is 4.3.5, (8L1) model MC00*LL
The device syncs with my computer without any problems.Restore the device as new.

Ipod shuffle will not connect to itunes on win7
Ipod touch will not connect to Itunes on WIN7. Used to work on Vista but has never worked on new WIN7 computer. Tried several cables and tried an Ipod shuffle. No joy. Current version of Itunes, restarted apple services and checked USB driver installed and functioning. When first plugged in, windows wants to know how to treat it (camera, file directory...) and for a few moments shows it as a drive. Device also shows syncing for a few moments. Then Itunes starts, the device stops sync and windows no longer shows it as a drive. Itunes does not show the device but wants to transfer purchases from the device (transfer purchases from an ipod?). I tried the steps given in on-line help and the diagnostic. Must be missing something in the setup of Ituines. Any suggestions...
Sorry sorry I am a not clear on apple product names. Actually do not care about the names. So I had to look this up so as not to offend anybody. I am talking an ipod nano gen4 AND and ipod nano gen7. Neither work. Can you direct me to somebody who might know how to fix this?

My ipod touch will not sync with itunes I have tried to restore it to the factory settings and have now lost what little music I had on it I have music in my itunes but it wont sync for some reason .. please help ..
Why won't it sync? Are you getting any sort of error message during the sync process? If so what is the exact wording of that error message? If this the computer you normally sync the iPod with?

It still could be cable or contacts in the iPod since different contacts/conductor are used for charging and data -
TS1717 ipod touch will not connect to the itunes store
can some one tell my why the ipod touch will not connect to the itunes store - just says it can not connect.
Hello, rumisha.
Here is an article that will help you troubleshoot the connection to the iTunes store you are experiencing on your iPod Touch. Scroll to the section labeled Troubleshooting on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. Attempt to connect to another wifi network to see if the issue persists as this could be the cause.

Also, check the date and time. I have attached a screen shot as this could cause an issue if not set correctly.

My ipod touch will not connect to wi fi.
My ipod touch will not connect to wi fi. I have tried reseting, I have the correct password. I even took my ipod back to factory and nothing. Any ideas/advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.
