TS1496 My ipod touch will not download lates version of itunes. Our pc is windows and we also have a shuffle and it works fine.

My ipod touch will not download latest version of itunes 11. Our pc is windows.
Itunes cannot find the device to sync because it all relates back to not being able to downloand the latest version of itunes.
We also have a shuffle and it works fine. We can use 2 devices for one Itunes account.
My daughter is 11 and she has never downloaded her ipod from our pc because of the download problem.

iTunes 11 is for computers only, the built-in apps on an iPod (and iPad and iPhone) are part of iOS (i.e. its operating system) on them and can only be updated by updating the whole iOS version. Do you have iTunes 11 installed on your PC ? On iTunes on a PC I think that you can check if updates are available to it via the iTunes 'Help' menu, or you can download the current version of iTunes from here and then run/install it : http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If the iPod has never been synced to that computer then (when you've got iTunes on it working) you may find this page for syncing to a new computer useful as well : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141

Ipod touch will not update!

My ipod touch will not let me update to the most current software or even restore my ipod to factory settings. It will let me download, but when it is done and ready to install I get a message "There was a problem downloading the ipod software. The network connection timed out. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later." Does anyone know what this means? I never seemed to have a problem until I downloaded that January update a few months ago.
I even tried reinstalling itunes but that did not help. Any help or suggestions are appreciated

Hi Ed, and a warm welcome to the forums!
I think you'd have far better luck in the iPod touch section, or maybe the Windows part...

Ipod touch will not update from IOS version 6.1.3 to IOS version 7

Are the previous ipod touch devices not compatible? An ipad the same age updated just fine.

Only the iPod 5th generation can update to iOS 7. If you have an earlier model then you cannot update to iOS 7.

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 sister ipod is doing the same thing.

HT201272 My ipod touch will not update a paid app---Strange Rain. using version 4.2.1. How can I get this installed and updated?

I have updated to the supposed newest version for my touch.
But it still will not sync and update my Strange Rain app.
How can I get this back?

According to the product description the latest version of this app requires ios 4.3 or later.
You would have to use your copy of the older version.

My ipod touch will not update or restore

So everytime i try to restore or update my Ipod Touch 4th gen 4.3.2 to 5.1.1 it says The Ipod could not be restored. An unknown error occured (3194). I looked up the error and did everything it said to but i still get the same error.
Any help?
Thank you

So you did evething here:
This device is not eligible for the requested build: Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194." If you receive this alert, update to the latest version of iTunes. Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, follow Troubleshooting security software issues.
Downgrading to a previous version of iOS is not supported. If you have installed software to perform unauthorized modifications to your iOS device, that software may have redirected connections to the update server (gs.apple.com) within the Hosts file. First you must uninstall the unauthorized modification software from the computer, then edit out the "gs.apple.com" redirect from the hosts file, and then restart the computer for the host file changes to take affect. For steps to edit the Hosts file and allow iTunes to communicate with the update server, see iTunes: Troubleshooting iTunes Store on your computer, iPhone, iPad, or iPod—follow steps under the heading Blocked by configuration (Mac OS X / Windows) > Rebuild network information > The hosts file may also be blocking the iTunes Store. If you do not uninstall the unauthorized modification software prior to editing the hosts file, that software may automatically modify the hosts file again on restart. Also, using an older or modified .ipsw file can cause this issue. Try moving the current .ipsw file, or try restoring in a new user to ensure that iTunes downloads a new .ipsw.
Error 3194: Resolve error 3194 by updating to the latest version of iTunes. "This device is not eligible for the requested build" in the updater logs confirms this is the root of the issue. For more Error 3194 steps see: This device is not eligible for the requested build above.

Then try another computer.

My Ipod touch will not update.

I have not had an opportunity to update my Ipod touch for some time and have now come to try. However it will not allow me. Everything goes well, it backs up and downloads everything until it suddenly comes up saying "The iPod ----- cannot be restored at this time because the iPod software update server could not be contacted or is temporarily unavailable" This has been occuring for about 3 weeks now. Any ideas?

Try:
iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server

My IPod touch will not update, My IPod touch will not update

I have tried to download the most recent update to my IPod touch, and every time I receive an error message. The update will start to download and then less than halfway through the error message pops up and the download stops. Not having my iPod updated is preventing me from re-downloading songs that did not apparently download the first time. These songs play in my iTunes on my computer, and even though I have synced my iPod a few times, the songs will not transfer.

Maybe if you told us what the error message says, we could help.

IPod Touch Will not Update or Restore

Just the other day I bought a iPod Touch. I went to install the 2.0 update and it comes up saying "there was a problem downloading the iPod software to the iPod. "(the name of my iPod)". An Unknown error occurred. (-23). It also does this when i try to do a restore. This is the second iPod i have owned to have this error. I spent hours on the phone with apple techs and they have no idea. Also both iPods that have had this problem were sync'd to separate computers. I have uninstalled an d re-installed itunes multiple times. The First computer was XP and this one is on Vista. Anyone got any ideas!

I'm in the same boat and I've been searching through here (while taking breaks from downlaoding, restarting, etc of course!) but nothing has helped.
When I plug it in, itunes immediately says it detects it's in recovery mode. Then the ipod tells me to plug it in (it already is and I know the port works)It spends forever "extracting the software," "preparing ipod for restore" with the logo, where it freezes or I get error 13 or 6 or 2301. It won't let me restore. everytime I plug it into the comp, it turns on with a picture teling me to plug it in. Then when it's not plugged in, I just get the apple logo, if I'm lucky.
I ran the diagnostic and everything looks like it's working.
i haven't even downloaded apps or anything.

First Gen iPod Touch will not update to 2.2

Hi guys, having a major issue here with this 2.2 update from Apple. I have a 16GB 1st Gen iPod Touch and am running Windows Vista Home Premium along with iTunes 8.
When I click to update my software from 1.5.1 to 2.2, it goes through the whole process, but when it should finish, it says "Update could not be completed, Error 14." I then try to restore the iPod, it won't do that either. The iPod gets stuck on the screen showing the iTunes w/usb cable picture.
Any help on this?

Beyond that if you are near an Apple Store you might make a Genius Bar appointment.

IPod Touch will not update to 2.1 and is now in recovery mode

So I downloaded the 2.1 update and tried to install, it failed and now my iPod Touch is in recovery mode. When I go to restore now it tries and fails and tells me that it could not be restored and says "An unknown error occurred(6)" I would really appreciate any help as my iPod is useless right now. This iPod has never been jailbroken either.

Dang! I got the same message too, and this is my second iPod Touch (which is a replacement because my first couldn't install 2.0 at all). I got "Unknown Error (6)" twice, then tried a third time and that finally worked.
What is it with these devices that they're so unreliable? As it is, I'm crossing my finger that the 2.0.1 update addresses the battery problem I'm having now with this second iPT. (Won't know yet until later.)

My ipod touch will not update to ios5

Hi I have a Ipod touch 3rd generation 8gb.
I want to update it to IOS5 but when i click check for updates in Itunes it sais you have 4.2.1.
I looked at other disscusions and it said they have 2nd generation but im positive I have 3rd before buying it i looked everywhere and got this ipod touch 3rd generation 8gb. I would pull up my order history but the history is 18 months and I think i got this a year ago.
and some people were talking about codes on the back mine is 579c-a1288
What im saying is can someone clear this up because its confusing. and if i bought a 3rd did they rip me of and give me a 2nd?

Do a search of these discussion and also look on http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1353 for the 3rd gen Touch. It came in 32GB and 64GB models ONLY!
... and no, I am not mad.
