How do I upgrade my iPOD Touch from iOS 4.2.1 to 5? I've reset it, erased it, but still won't install iOS5.

You most likely have a 2G iPod touch which cannot go beyond iOS 4.2.1. If it is an 8gb or 16 gb iPod without a camera, it is a 2G iPod.

I can't upgrade my iPod touch (from version 1.1.5)

Hello there,
Sorry for my english if it's bad.
I have a problem with my very old ipod touch (i got about 2 years ago).
Yesterday i decided that i wanted to download some games and applications to use on my Ipod touch, but after downloading one for free on the app store, i couldn't synch it on my ipod.
I was told that i needed to upgrade my iPod. It had the 1.1.4 version.
So i upgraded it, and it only upgraded it to the 1.1.5 version, which seems to be a very old version.
I do have the latest version of iTunes (version 9.2) but next to the upgrade button, my iTunes tells me that the 1.1.5 version is the latest version, and that it will search for new versions only on the 18.07.2010.
I would very much like to upgrade my ipod touch so that i can use some applications on it, but i just can't, apparently.
Thank you so much for your help, i'm pretty bad with this stuff.
ps: i have a macbook pro that i bought one year ago, so my computer isn't very old either...

iPod Touch 2nd gen 32GB Mac OS 10.6.4
Since I have upgraded to iOS4, I have run into the following problems:
1: Safari crashes on many of my previously favorite websites. They start to load and whamo a back screen and then my home screen returns.
2: Very slow to open most apps. Takes many times as long as previously.
3: Slow wifi. I'm practically sitting on top of my modem and I am getting only one little rainbow bar showing. This happens at other wifi locations too, so it's not a modem incompatibility.
I have erased all of my coockies, history and cache to little avail.
I have restored my iPod from my Mac.
I have erased and re bookmarked my sites.
I'm only using up half of the RAM so its not that.
What else can I do. I love the folders, but this isn't worth it.
Thank you in advance.

Can I upgrade my ipod touch from ios6.1.5 to ios7 which i need to use bbc podcasts

I want to be able to download BBC podcasts.
My ipod touch has IOS6.1.5 but to access podcasts I need ios7.
Is it possible to install IO7 and how do I do it?
Thanks for any help.
Bob

iOS7 only runs on touch 5's, so unless you have a 5, you can't up grade to iOS 7, sorry.

That's as high as that model can upgrade to. You will need to buy a newer model to go higher.

Hello! Not a problem, because you will get a Ipod Nano 1st generation as a replacement, not a new / latest generation.

Suggestions for Upgrading to iPod Touch v 1.1.1

This is the procedure I used and it worked without a single hiccup:
1.  Disconnect the Touch from the Computer (Unplug the USB connector from the Touch, NOT from the Computer).
2.  Reset and Erase (Two Seperate items) everything on the Touch.  In essence, you are restoring the Touch to the factory specs, the way it was out of the box, NEW.  Make sure the battery is fully charged.
3.  Start iTunes and Download and Install the new version, which is v 7.4.3.1.  After the download and install Reset your Computer.
4.  Start the NEW version of iTunes.  Now turn off all of the following:  A.  Screen Saver,  B.  Firewall,   C.  Anti-Virus Program, D.  Ensure ALL programs have stopped before proceeding!
5.  Connect the Touch to the Computer via the USB connector.  iTunes should be opened and ready for you.  As soon as iTunes recognizes the Touch and you see it on the left side column, highlight/select the Touch and go through each tab and TURN OFF ALL Syncing!  Do this quick, you do not want any sync's at this time.
6.  Go to the first Touch screen within iTunes and now select the upgrade.  It will then download and install automatically.  Their should be minimal if any assistance needed during this phase.
7.  Upon completing the upgrade and subsequent installation, your Touch will reset itself.  After the reset, turn on the Touch.  Proceed to the SETTINGS and then GENERAL and then ABOUT.   The 6th line down, you'll see your NEW version 1.1.1.
8.  Now sync up the TOUCH and do what ever you do with your TOUCH!  ENJOY!!!
Summation:  If you follow these steps and do NOT take a short cut, all of your upgrade wows should be but a distant memory!  Take your time and get it right the first time!
I followed these steps and my Touch upgraded without a single hiccup.  Since the upgrade this unit has been FLAWLESS (Knock on wood), with any problems what so ever!
Good Luck!!!
Gunny
PS: I do not think I missed anything, but if some one thinks I did please let me know!

Go to:
SETTINGS
RESET
RESET ALL SETTINGS
ERASE ALL CONTENT AND SETTINGS (This will do both, but I always try the Reset Setting alone first to see if it resolves the problem. If not, I move to Erase All Content)

How do I upgrade my iPod touch to IOS 5.0.1 without losing my app data?

I want to upgrade my iPod touch (4.3.3) to IOS 5.0.1, but I don't want to lose my app data (Tiny Tower, etc.)
I transferred all my purchases to the host computer. I also backed up my app data. Before I update the IOS software on my iPod touch, I'd like to find out if the app data on my iPod will be erased as part of the upgrade.
If so, will a restore from backup restore the app data?

Can I downgrade the software on my iPod touch from 4.2.1 to 4.1

I recently upgraded the software on my 4th generation iPod touch from 4.1 to 4.2.1. Since then I can not use it in my car, the iPod is marked as unreadable. I wish to go back to my previous version of 4.1. Is this possible? I have sync'ed my iPod multiple times since then so I don't think that I have a backup that I can go back to.
I would appreciate any help or suggestions that anybody could give.
Thank you

I'm sort of in the same position. My iPod been playing up today, so plugged it into my work computer running Windows 7, updated the software thinking this would fix the problem, little did I realise iTunes would wipe all my songs off it - no warning of such a thing, AND I took a back-up. Restored the back up and still nothing.
So I plug the iPod into my personal laptop thats got all my music on, and now, because its on iOS 4.2, iTunes 9.2.1 on my Mac wont recognise the iPod. So, I go to update that version of iTunes to 10.1 - but 'cus I'm on Mac OS X 10.4.11 I cant have iTunes 10.1 - so basically I'm screwed.
I've been trawling the net for about 2 hours now trying to find ways of downgrading the software, and all I seem to be able to find out is that there is no 'legal' way of doing so.
I'm generally a big fan of Apple, but tonight has been an eye opener to their money spinning ways - the only option I can see right now, is to update my OS on my Mac - not looked yet, but I'm guessing not cheap.
Any help on getting my software back to 4.1 greatly appreciated as I've got a fairly recent iPod backup file on my Mac (which should work so long as I can get iTunes 9.2.1 to recognise the iPod).

I upgraded my iPod Touch 4th Gen yesterday. Now it won't play music, which is the main thing I use it for. Over 11,000 songs [it's a 64GB model] -- will I actually have to restore the device and re-add all that music?

I upgraded my iPod Touch 4th Gen yesterday. Now it won't play music, which is the main thing I use it for. Over 11,000 songs [it's a 64GB model] -- will I actually have to restore the device and re-add all that music?
[Music files are still there, and I can play them on my computer directly from the iPod [just one track at a time] but not in the usual way, through headphones.]
On the Summary page of iTunes for the iPod, it shows 50-plus gigabytes of "Other" content and no music, which was not previously the case. I assume this is related to the problem.
I can bring up individual tracks on the iPod and see cover art, but cannot play the music.

iCloud is free, iTunes match is $25 a year.
I had the same problem and when I went to Settings I had 0 songs, even though they were obviously still there since I only had 15GB free on my 64GB device.
I decided to do a complete reset/restore of my 4th gen iPod Touch, Bad move! I've been messing with it for hours, and it simply won't restore--it keeps hanging on a black screen with an Apple logo and a progress bar at about 10%, sometimes it goes completely blank and tries again, with the same result. (I've posted my question/plea for help here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19735862 )
I'm ready to bang my head against the wall! I can put the device in recovery mode, connect to iTunes on my computer, and get it back to the setup screen, but when I go through the process again and try to do an iCloud backup I get the same reset/restore loop.
I could start from scratch, but I really, really, really don't want to go through all of my hundreds of apps, reinstall them one by one, etc. etc. etc.
I thought that once I started using iCloud, I didn't need to sync with iTunes anymore--guess I was wrong.
