Upgrading to Ipod Touch

I'm getting ready to upgrade to an ipod touch. I have an ipod nano now. I was wondering how do i get all of my music onto this new ipod? When i upgraded to my nano, I had to start completely over except for my purchased music. I really don't want to do that again.

assuming you have all your music on your computer, it should sync to your ipod touch without problems.
if it isn't on your computer, you have a nano, so you should be able to put it into disk mode and move the music from your ipod to your computer (worth knowing, the ipod touch doesnt support disk mode, so you can only do itunes to ipod transfers, not vice versa, unless they are itunes purchases)

  • 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?

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • Upgraded my iPod touch to iOS5. How do I get my music back?

    Using my MacBook Pro, I just upgraded my iPod Touch to iOS5 and it erased all the content on my iPod. Now how do I get the content back onto the iPod?

    Thanks for your help, but I found an easier way: Since I have about 3000 songs, a few videos and a few audiobooks, it would have taken me forever to move each item one by one. So instead, I just dragged the content categories from the iTunes library into the iPod content catgories and it worked like a charm. Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction.

  • HT4972 How do I upgrade my iPOD Touch from iOS 4.2.1 to 5?

    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 have tried to upgrade my iPod touch , and cant even remember to which iOS  , and it didnt respond with the upgrade and does the loading logo until the battery life is gone. I tried restarting it doesnt work. NEED HELP

    I have upgraded my iPod touch and it didnt respond to the upgrade. Cant remember which iOS i was upgrading but when i try to switch it on the apple logo comes up but than it just goes to the loading logo until the battery life is gone. I have tried restarting it , that doesnt work. I need help i am lost without my ipod please help. Any ideas besides restarting it ?

    Try:                           
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

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