My iTouch (4th gen) Won't Update, Help!

I've tried countless times, and it just wont update. It Takes FOREVER to download the software and continually fails last minute. I have no clue why, my iTunes is the most recent version. I really need to update it tonight. Please Help!!!!!

Disable the computer's security software (antivirus and firewall) during the download and update.

  • My iTouch 4th Gen won't turn on. It won't charge. I tried doing the "home" + "power/sleep" button. And before my itouch shuts off, it's battery power level is low.

    My itouch won't turn on, i tried the "home" +  "power button and still no response from the itouch. also i know that my battery was low when it turned off. I tried charging it on my desktop or in my usb charger. still no response from my itouch. it is 4th Gen, it has the latest software and it is only two months old.

    Try letting it charge for a little while longer.  Then try another hard reset.  Only this time hold those two buttons together anywhere from 10 seconds to a minute.  Any luck there?
    Otherwise, see the Will not power on section of this Apple support document.

  • When will the itouch 4th gen get another update?

    i really like the ios update that all my friends got on their iphones but i only have an itouch and i was wondering when the itouch 4th generation will get an update

    Very likely never.
    It has already received several updates since it was released 3 years ago -  ios 5 and ios 6
    It simply does not have the hardware to handle anything more than that.

  • My iPad Retina 4th Gen. won't charge Help!! :(

    Please refer to the details below:
    Device: iPad (4th Gen) WIFI + Cellular 32GB (No External Damages)
    Accessories: "Brand New" Genuine Apple Lightning Cable 1M and 12W Adapter (Bundled w/ the iPad)
    iOS Version: 7.1.1 (Latest)
    Scenario:
    My old cable broke so I decided to buy a new one, but then when I tried to charge my iPad using my newly bought cable and my 12w adapter, my iPad won't charge! I've tried the cable on both orientations since lightning cables are reversible yet to no avail still my device won't charge. At first, maybe it is my 12w adapter that is broken so I tried another good known 12w adapter but still my iPad won't charge. Running out of options, I called a friend who has a newly bought iPad 4th Gen and tried out my accessories, her iPad is CHARGING!! actually it fully charged her iPad! So my accessories are really working fine! Tried my cable and 12w adapter to different lightning devices and all devices where charging and syncing. I've aslo tried to plug the ipad to my computer using my newly bought cable and surprisingly it is charging and detected by itunes. But I know it really takes time charging on the computer and I'm really confused why my iPad will charge on a computer but NOT when using my adapter plugged on a wall socket which practically is weird since it is confirmed that my accessories are working. I've tried other brand new lightning cables still it won't charge on the wall using the adapter.
    Isolations Made:
    12w adapter = Confirmed Working
    Lightning Cable = Confirmed Working
    iPad (4th Gen) = Already done "Cleaning the ports" ,"Restart" , "Reset" and "Complete Restore including DFU Restore"
    Buttom Line: iPad will charge on the computer but NOT on the wall socket using the 12w adapter and same cable

    - Did you everset up yur iPod on the "new" computer? To do thatyou need to either mrestore the iPod from a backup on the computer or restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.
    - Is the computerauthorized for the iitem in the iTunes library?
    - Is the iPod signed into that account?

  • Itouch 4th gen won't fully load msn

    My 4th gen iTouch will not fully load MSN Mobile page, only about 3/4 and kicks me back to the home screen. When I am able to bring up MSN(rare occasion) my weather location is wrong and I can not change it. MSN always switches it back and it will not let delete the wrong location.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Go to Settings>Safari and Clear History, Data and Cookies
    - Try powering off and then back on your router
    Does the Map app show the iPod correct location? If not then weaher will not either
    - Try another browser like the free Chrome browser
    - Reset all settings                 
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

  • Itouch 4th gen won't turn on or sync to comp, no thread has helped so far

    Hey there, no other thread has helped so far, no combination of holding power and home buttons has worked. Computer does not recognize it, it will not charge, completely black screen. Was not dropped or had anything spilled on it. Please assist!

    Ah yeah I guess I have no choice but to go into an Apple store, calling Apple support didn't help.

  • IPod 4th gen won't update!

    okay so I've read a few discussions from people who have the same problem as me! its so annoying now, I've been trying to update my iPod to the new iOS 5 update but it refuses to update!
    It finishes downloading the update then says an error has occured, the timed out one, it then tells me to check my network connectivity, I do so and it works perfectly.
    I then turned ALL my secruity settings off and tried again. Still no luck.
    help me??????

    - Disabling the computer's security software during the dowload and update usually works.
    - You can also try a direct download and install using these instructions.

  • IPod Touch (4th Gen) Won't Update Past iOS 6.1.6

    I have an iPod Touch (4th Generation). I'm trying to connect to Family Share but it needs to be updated to iOS 8. My iPod is saying it's up-to-date at iOS 6.1.6.
    I have tried updating directly from the iPod (Settings > General > Software Updates) and I've also connected it to my Mac OS X Yosemite / iTunes 12.01.126 with no luck. Nothing is recognizing that this device needs to be updated.
    How can I update this iPod to iOS 8?

    iOS 7 or iOS 8 isn't compatible with iPod Touch  4G
    you have the latest version available

  • Itouch 4th gen won't play digital copy of movie

    I downloaded my first digital copy of a movie, following the instructions and using the serial number provided. It shows in my library, and I can watch on itunes. I then transferred it to my itouch, and it appears on my playlist, but when I try to play it, it says it's an "unsupported format".
    I've been trying to find a solution, and 'help' advised to "create a ipod or iphone version" in itunes (through 'Advanced'), but this option is greyed out.
    I'd appreciate any help and advice that anyone can provide to sort this out.
    Thanks!

    Hello cj pup,
    And welcome to Apple Discussions!
    Does the movie still play alright in iTunes? What format is it in? Have you double checked to make sure it wasn't in HD instead of SD?
    If the video is in High Definition, check to see if it came with a Standard Definition copy as well and if it did, go ahead and sync that one to your iPod. Otherwise, I'm afraid there isn't much else you can do.

  • Itouch 4th Generation won't update songs when i edit them through devices

    Whenever i update songs on itunes from devices they wont update on the ipod itself just on the library list under devices and it will stay the same on the ipod as before i edited so i have to erase them edit them on itunes library and them drag them again into ipod i wanna be able to edit them withouth having to edit info in library and have to drag them also when i put an album artwork the same way the picture wont be on the ipod and it will skip the song as soon as it start i just got the ipod yesterday brand new?

    This is normal and is how Apple handles photos.
    There are NOT duplicate photos.
    Just as a song is in your itunes library and you can access that exact same song from a playlist,  all  photos synced to iphone are in the photo library and those exact same photos (NOT duplicates) can be accessed from the individual albums.
    It is working exactly as it should.

  • Ipod touch 4th gen won't sync or download podcasts

    Hi, all! I get that the ipod touch 4th gen won't update to ios7, but this has made podcasts unusable I'm unable to download new podcasts or sync them to my computer because I'm told the podcast app isn't updated. Is there anything I can do or do I basically have an unusable ipod where podcasts are concerned?

    Why happens when you install the last compatible version of the podcast app and sync?
    Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.
