New Ipod Touch Software updated?

I just bought an Ipod Touch for a gift, does anyone know if it contains the January software update? Do they sell them with the update or do you still have to pay for the update. I would like to give the item wrapped but if there is no update I would like to open it and install the update. Thanks

One would think this, but if you look there are several folks who recently bought an iPod Touch that was not upgraded. I guess it would be safer to say that by now, all the ones at Apple's stores have the upgrade and most from other reputable dealers will have it.
The safest way to check is to look at the model number if it ends in /A it is the original software, if ti ends in /B it has the upgrade.

IPod Touch software update suggestions - Attention Apple Development!

Maybe this has occurred to you folks at Apple, but how about an iPod Touch software update that allows the user to create 'folders' to organize YouTube bookmarks? Even better, a way to do this in the sync-page of iTunes as well. And another suggestion - a way to select which Safari bookmarks are synched; better yet which browser to sync (Safari, Firefox, etc. - can't do this on the Mac as far as I can tell).

I tried to update my ipod touch software update by syncing with itunes and now its in recovery mode? Is it possible to get it out of recovery mode? if so, then how?

I tried to update my ipod touch software by syncing with itunes and it put the ipod into "recovery mode". Seems like the only option is to restore? Is there a way to get it out of recovery mode?

No.
Once the Device is asking to be Restored with iTunes... it is too late to save anything...
To minimise loss... Connect to iTunes on the computer you Usually Sync with and Restore from the most recent Backup...

New iPod touch software - How do I get rid of the notification?

Hi Support
I have a pre 'January update' iPod touch.
I have upgrade to iTunes 7.6 and the touch to 1.1.3 but I get a screen asking me to buy the new update. I do not want this software or a least I do not want to pay for this (thats not my argument - but I'm unhappy).
My question is how can I remove this information?
The only options are remind me later or buy it.
I would like to never be reminded about this software again, for the moment to allow me to use my iPod I have selected remind me later.
Please let me know how to fully remove it.
Signed,

Unhappy Customer.

So I am not alone. I sent in the following e-mail to Apple Support. I am not a happy camper for the nag bug and for the way they are treating products still under warranty. If this was just something else in the Store like a game and I could ignore it, I couldn't care less, but a firmware update being forced upon you at a price is actually more like a ransom threat.
"Every time I connect my Touch, I now get this announcement forcing me to either buy a software "update" I don't want to pay for OR to pick an option to be nagged about the update. There is no option to say "No Thanks". I just purchased my Touch. It is still under warranty. How can you now want to force me to purchase this "update". I don't mind the option to be asked once if I'd like to buy new software, but to buy a software update for a product bought less than 30 days ago? Please either make this software "update" free to Touch's under warranty or change it to be offer for an optional new software add-on, but don't force me to buy this firmware. I love my 3rd iPod, but..."

Restored iPod Touch Software Update will not appear

Hello Today I restored my iPod Touch as it was acting strangely, mail app freezes etc. After I restored in Synced with my computer but the January Software update would not install. I hope this restore did con me out of 20 dollars and I am hoping someone can assist me.

Did you restore the iPod on the same machine that you bought the software upgrade?
If not then you need to restore it on the machine where the upgrade was purchased or copy the upgrade file to the new computer. You need to do a search in these forums to find the details of the file you need.

Downloading previous ipod touch software updates

Is it possible to download a previous software update for my ipod touch? My software version is currently 1.1.5, but I do not want to buy the new 3.0 version. Is there a link somewhere that I can go to?
Thanks so much!

NP.
Remember, just in case someone tells you to "Google" it and download software that's online, it won't work as you have to had bought this from Apple, and of course, it would be stealing.
Not that YOU were going to do that, just trying to avoid that pitfall.

IPod Touch Software Update 2.2 - 3.0 - 3.1 How much?

Hello!
Thank you for reading.
I'm still in the age of software 2.2 for the iPod Touch.
You may think this is a stupid question but actually I am just confirming because I don't fully trust Apple.
The 3.1 software is $4.95 US, does this include all features of version 3.0? Or do I have to buy 3.0 for ~$10US and 3.1 for $4.95US afterwards?
Thanks!

You're not really paying for 3.1, you're really paying for an upgrade to any version of 3, so buying 3.1 is the same as buying 3.0 and then upgrading to 3.1 afterwards.
Hope that helps

IPod touch + Software update + Blue screen of death = Broken iPod?

Hi
As the title already might explain, i just connected my iPod to my pc to get some apps & movies on it for my boring schooltrip tomorrow. Whilest iTunes was downloading the new software for my iPod, i just was continueing hanging around on the net, when all out of a sudden, my pc get's a nice blue screen of death. First, i didn't care, untill i checked my iPod... It's stuck on the iTunes logo + the cord. When i press any button, it doesn't do anything. When i press the power, it shuts down after few secs.
I then tried to replug it to the pc to reset it. My pc makes the sound of a usb connection, but nor Windows, nor iTunes finds my iPod.
Can someone please help me?
Thx alot!

I just had my ipod in my pocket and when i got it out to look at a text that i got the screen was white and i couldn't do anything on it so i held both buttons and it shut down and started working again but it did the same thing the other day.... But now it wont shut down or anything. I tried letting the batter go dead on it but it still did the same thing.. i can hear when i get a text and hear to unlock the screen but it stays on a white screen 24/7....what do i do??
I don't have a warranty so how much would it cost to get it fixed???

Ipod touch software updates

I recently downloaded the 3-d vector pong game and today i looked on the applications page in itunes. Apparently it was updated to version 1.2 and I have version 1.1. Both my computer and my ipod say that there are no updates available. This update has many features that i would like to have but i dont know how to get to them.

The one update I had notified me and downloaded to iTunes. Maybe contact the developer and ask what you need to do?

Where can we find the new iPod Touch 2.0 software to download it?

I am in the United States in Northern Ca..
It is Friday early Morning after 12 and after 1, I was wondering if anyone knows if the New iPod Touch software 2.0 is or will be ready soon for download or do we all have to wait till 8 in the morning to download the new 2.0 iPod Touch software?
Where can we find the new Software at the Apple web site to downlod it? I looked everywhere on the apple web site trying to find a place to download it, does anyone know??
I have updated the to the new version of iTunes 7.7..
In the iTunes where I sync my iPod Touch where in the summary section it says "check for Update", next to it, it says "iTunes will automatically check for an update again on 7/15/08", I also hit the back up button and it tells me that 1.1.4 is the current Version, do I have to wait till the 15th for that update??
I was reading somewhere on the apple web site that in order to update to 2.0 I have to restore my iPod Touch and have a backup, is this just for the iPhone to restore and create a backup? if not then how do I create a 2nd back up?
Thanks,
Mrs. Trisha Foster

the update is ready on the servers but is just waiting to be pushed through to itunes. I am in australia and I contacted apple technical support, that's what they told me. Don't restore your ipod, just wait and when you connect and click on update, it will update your ipod and there will also be an icon on the home page of the itunes store. We are all waiting in anticipation.

Youtube slow with New iPod Touch update?

It seems when i got the new iPod touch/ iPhone update the youtube seems to be slower than ever. It takes like 10 minutes to download a video. Anyone else having this problem or know how to solve it?

The iPod's YouTube application streams video from YouTube and doesn't download it. Anyway, however you are doing it, the speed depends entirely on the quality of your WiFi connection. The 2.2.1 update only made some minor corrections and did not have anything to do with WiFi.

New iPod touch received today from Apple Store still running 2.2.1

I received my 8GB iPod Touch 2G from Apple Store (Hong Kong) this morning (August 28, 2009). I order it earlier this week.
After checking, it runs 2.2.1, not 3.0.x. Plugged in iTunes, it told me I need to pay USD9.95 to upgrade it to version 3.
Called Apple rep and the guy said this is expected.
I supposed all the new iPod ordered from the Apple online store should come with the latest s/w installed, or at least a promo voucher to claim the upgrade if it is not practical to upgrade all the inventory.
Is this the case in other countries?
