Update my really old iTouch? Troubleshooting: IT WONT WORK!! :(

I have a really old iTouch (I believe it is 1st gen; it has no mic or photo-taking lens), and I only recently went back to use it after wanting to use my nano for all these years, wanting to get good usage out of it. Anyways, I downloaded some apps for my iTouch, when apparently, it wont support these apps. I did research to find out that you can download the software to update it so it can use the apps. However, almsot all sites told me to go here to buy it (purchasing is not an issue btw):
http://www.apple.com/ipodtouch/softwareupdate.html
This link does not work for me, for whenever I click it it redirects me to the iOS homepage on Apple... it is really annoying me now on why I can't access this page to simply update my iPod. Is it because I live in Canada or something? Nevertheless, is there a flow chart someone could mention on how to get to that page without putting in that URL into the top space? Thanks.

You should get a new iPod. The highest supported OS for the first generation iPod Touch is iOS 3.1.3. And you need to buy the software update for the first generation iPod Touch. It states right here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2052 Only iOS 4 or higher is free which your first generation iPod Touch does not support, only the second generation of iPod Touch or better. It's not worth it to buy the update, I recommend save up some money on the new iPod Touch.

    First try a Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least Ten seconds... (But can take Longer)... until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons
    If no joy... Try a Restore...

  • I've just had a keyboard firmware update and now my volume control buttons wont work

    i've just had a keyboard firmware update and now my volume control buttons wont work.
    Has anyone else had this problem? if so have they found out how to fix it, or is this an on going issue?

    Hi,
    Your problem has some similarities to this problem that I reported earlier this month that that still arises every few days. I was thinking that my problem was related to some sort of bug in Entourage, but maybe it's something else...

  • Updating to Safari 3.1.2 but wont work

    I have a really old mac and i try to update this safari but it wont work.... it says i dont have the package or something(very new to mac and very frustrated). It was given to me from a friend and am confused.

    Hello again,
    It sounds as if you may have made the same mistake with Firefox as you did with Safari. Firefox 3 only works with 10.4+. You need Firefox 2.0.0.16 if you wish to use Firefox on Panther 10.3.
    Personally, I prefer Camino. The latest version of Camino for Panther 10.3 is 1.6.3 (v1.8.1.16 2008080311) which you can find at Camino 1.6.3.
    The developer of Firefox has announced that it will only support Firefox for Panther until December 2008 whereas Camino is still being supported with no announcement of it not being supported past that point.
    We will all eventually or rather, most likely, have to upgrade our OS's to 10.4 or 10.5 as web features will gradually not work on these older browsers as time goes on.
    *tip: Always wise to first check system requirements first before downloading software.
    If you have downloaded correct versions of the software and for any reason it is not opening or quitting upon launch you may have other problems with your system that would need addressing.
    hope that helps,

  • I updated to Ubuntu 12.10 and firefox wont work anymore

    Ok, so, I updated my Ubuntu from 11.10 to 12.10. Now firefox will not work. All it will load is stuff in the first tab. If you open another tab and try to navigate away from the tab page, or if you open a link in another tab it just refuses to navigate away from the tab page. What is going on here? I mean, it worked perfectly in 11.10, what happened?

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Creating a profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
    If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

  • Updating the Importing songs to my nano wont work!

    i have imporated a cd into my nano & after it is done it wont update the nano. It wants to take the songs from the library & put them on instead. Why does it want to do that & how do i get my songs onto my nano? I also have the ipod mini which the nano wants to take the songs from there. please help!!
    -Danielle-

    Hey,
    It sounds to me like you have your iPod is automatic such. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND YOU CHANGE IT TO MANUAL FOR THE NANO. Since it is so easy to have more songs in your library than your Nano, you just might not have enough room. If you do not know how to change it to manual just post back

  • Just updated to new IPOD files, now it wont work

    updated my ipod files to the 1-10-06 files, now nothing works, all i get is a screen showing a wall outlet and the plug...which i dont have, i charge in car or thru my USB connection. none of the buttons work, itunes wont recognize it, and neither will the updater. any help would be most appreciated

    Sally,
    Your problem is - you cant do the restore for your iPod as it could not be regonized by your PC. Recently, I discovered a better way, but you need to have a Mac computer (or borrow from a friend), you got better chance to see your iPod got mounted with a Mac when you put your iPod in Disk Mode. Open the Disk Utility in the Mac and do a ERASE (format in MS DOS) and re-connect it with your PC. Then you open the iPod updater in your PC, wait for few minutes and click the RESTORE. Bingo.

    Hi Terri,
    I am assuming that you are using a Mac. Update for 17.0.1 have been pulled off the server for Mac(see this - https://blogs.adobe.com/adobeillustrator/2013/11/illustrator-cc-updates-now-available.html
    Please uninstall AI CC 17.0.1 & re-install again. You will be back on to the 17.0.0 version. This is MAC only change.
    Please let us know if you are facing this issue on Win.
    Thanks,

  • Recently updated AE CS6 and now mxf canon wont work!

    I'm working on several projects that use Canon mxf files in AE CS6 and everything worked just fine. Yesterday I installed the newest update and now it tells me they are unsoppurted or corrupted. I also switched from the trial to a paid version (but I dont think thats too important)
    running
    Win 7
    32gigs of Ram
    intel i7-3930K
    nvidia quadro 2000D
    3tb HD
    After Effects 11.0.2.12
    Thanks!
    Edit: If i dynamic link from premiere, its all ok, but i enjoy having my AE projects be standalone...

    Undo the update - uninstall everything, run the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool, reinstall from scratch.

  • Please help! I have been trying to update iTunes 10.5.3 and it wont work?

    Please help! I have been trying to update my iTunes for a few months with no luck! I click install and it will make it to 10% then tells me it has been interupted, so i resume and then it pops up with "iTunesSetup.exe couldnt be downloaded." I have done the repair thing and still nothing! This is driving me crazy!! I need iTunes updated to update my iPhone.

    If your profile is correct you are using 10.6.8 Snow Leopard.   The latest iTunes version for that OS is 11.3.1    If your profile is wrong and you have 10.9.5 Mavericks, then the iTunes version is 11.4.    You cannot use Mavericks versions on Snow Leopard.
