Using iCloud with my iPod touch

I can't update the operating system on my iPod touch so that I can use iCloud. It appears to keep downloading the new version to iTunes on my desktop computer but never seems to transfer to iPod. Can anyone help with that?

I have iTunes version 10.5.2.11. Everytime I plug my iPod in, a message pops up in iTunes telling me that "A new iPod software version (5.0.1) is available for the iPod.... I select "Download and Update" (I've tried choosing "Download" only also). I wait and wait while it downloads (according to the menu on the left side of the iTunes window. Then nothing. The file disappears from the left side of the iTunes screen and its like I never did anything. It happens EVERY time I plug in the iPod. And I've repeated this numerous times. Help, please.

Can I use icloud with my ipod touch ?

It's a 2nd gen, 8GB, version 4.2.1. I'm not even able to follow steps for setting up icloud because when I go to settings and software updates, there is not even a software update category.

Thanx Winston. I understand what the "cloud" is and is not but I just received an ad about "iCloud Everywhere" via iTunes while shopping and I see it on Apple's website too. Through " iCloud Everywhere" you can upload music and thus "make it available on all your devices", according to Apple. Media can then be either streamed to all your devices through the cloud or you can download. They mention for example that you can download a movie if you know you'll be in a place where wifi is not available. They also point out that you can save songs that you didn't buy via iTunes Store and later stream through all your devices. Ergo my question. If I have an iTunes account and buy the iCloud Everywhere subscription I should be able to upload to my Everywhere files regardless of computer registration. Correct? There are programs outside Apple that claim to be able to merge differently registered Apple devices and they want the same amount of money as iCloud Everywhere. I would rather stay with Apple if that's possible. After all it's not fair to lose your media just because your computer crashes or is replaced. I know I raise several issues here so if you can help on the iCloud Everywhere question I'd appreciate any help.

Can I use iCloud with my iPod nano and windows laptop?

not clear how to use iCloud with an iPod Nano and a Win 8.1 PC

iCloud doesn't work with the iPod nano directly, and will only work on a PC with an already-existing iCloud account; these need to be created from a Mac or an iOS device.

How can I synchronize Contacts in iCloud with an iPod touch 2nd generation?

I've got MacBook Pro with OS 10.7.2, an iPhone 3GS working with iOS 5 Andrzej an iPod touch with iOS 4.2.1. I'm using also iCloud. After moving my MobileMe to iCloud I cannot sync Contacts with my iPod.
ITunes doesn't do it, and iCloud also doesn't work with iOS 4.2.1.
Is there any solution? I really not want to migrate to the Google cloud

because iTunes will tell you "Contacts (Adresses,Mail,etc ) is already managed by icloud".
So.. either vs. or, not both.

Can I transfer files using Bluetooth with an iPod Touch?

I have just updated my iPod Touch to 3.0 and I heard that there is a stereo bluetooth feature. Can I somehow transfer files and media using it? (No jailbroken !!) If not, how can I use it?

There is no file transfer via bluetooth, only music streaming to a compatible bluetooth headset.

HT1918 How do i change the phone number on my apple ID account so i can use messaging with my Ipod Touch 4th gen?

How do I change my phone number on my Apple ID account? Not the number for billing. I got a new Ipod touch and when I was setting it up my emails where correct but the phone number was wrong. The gentlemen at the Apple Store told me just to go on my account on my computer and change it but i cant find where. Only part i know how to change is the billing number. Thanks.

If you can remember them their current answers you can login here and change them : https://appleid.apple.com , click on 'Manage your Apple ID' and then 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of your account's page
If you can't remember their answers and you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then see if the instructions on this user tip helps you get them reset : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551

How do I use find my iPhone with a iPod Touch 3g?

l I tried using it on a friends iPod Touch, because I lost mine. I tried regestring but It didn't work, to my dismay I learned that MobileMe was closed to new subscribers. I tried doing it on iCloud, but iCloud is only for iOS 5. So how do I register findmyiPhone with a iPod Touch 3g?
Or did Apple Screw me over on this one? (Sorry, you'd be ****** to if someone stole an iPod you left on a table when you were going to the bathroom.)

Sorry, but Apple didn't screw you. You screwed yourself. See, there's no point putting a lock on your door after the burglars have left.

Sign in Home Sharing of her iTunes with your Apple ID.

You can only sync with one computer. I would backup to one computer and then restore from backup.

My Reminders app will not open. When I try to open it, quits and gives me an error message: "Reminders quit unexpectedly while using the CalDAV plug-in." My Reminders is synced with my iPod touch, and it is fine on that. How do I fix it?

Also, the Calendar is loading very very slowly, and sometimes it quits and gives me the same error message as above.

The problem has been fixed with the most recent OS X software update.

The computer that I original used with my ipod touch is dead, so I am now synching and backing up to a new computer. I had to restore the software to this ipod. I can drop and drag my tunes back into the ipod, but not my apps.

I had to restore the software of the ipod, I am able to drop and drag my tunes back to the ipod but not my purchased apps. I have no problem doing this with other ipods that I have synced and backed up to this computer.

Internet connection drops when I use Home Sharing with my iPod Touch

Hi,
I have two PCs (Windows 7 and Windows Vista) both with iTunes 10.2.1 and an iPod Touch with iOS 4.3.1.
When I use iTunes' Home Sharing with my iPod Touch, that is, I stream music, podcasts, etc from either one of my PC computers to my iPod Touch, a few minutes later both laptops, as well as my iPod Touch, lose Internet connectivity. While home sharing continues, Internet connection is lost. I have to unplug my modem and wireless router to get back my Internet connection. The problem, however, recurs again and again.
Any recommendations? Thanks in advance.
Dave

I am having the same problem. My MacBook, iPad, iPhone, and even the PC all lose internet connectivity;but home sharing still continues to function properly on ATV2.
I'm not too savvy on routers and modems, but could the problem be my router's capacity?
