Why is it my pod touch 4th gen version 4.3.3 won't let me delete some pictures, says total gb is 6.5, and won't let me upgrade the firmware
My iPod touch is version 4.3.3 and recently I was thinking I'm sick of my iPods memory always being full so I can't take pictures. My memory has allowed at max 6.5 gb which is highly annoying so I started by trying to delete photos for room and I deleted about 300 and it didn't allow any more memory so I went to delete 41 more and they wouldn't delete for some reason. So I resorted to upgrading my I.o.s. But when I began downloading it onto my actual iPod an error popped up and it wouldn't let me.
So, my question is how do I get those 41 pictures to delete, make my max capacity of gigabytes higher than 6.5 when it's suppose to have 8, and lastly how can I get my iOS to upgrade?
- An 8 GB iPod only has about 6.5 GB available to the user. The difference is due to the iOS taking uop the difference. Also see:

- What was the error that apeared when you tried to updaet the iOS?
- What happenswhen you try to delete the photos?

My i pod touch 4th gen. is in recovery mode. I am trying to back it up using i tunes but the option for backup is not highlighted. I am at a loss as to what I should do. I do not want to lose all of my pictures. I tried holding down the on/off button with the home button but that does not work. Keeps the touch in the same recovery mode. Suggestions??
No. If the photos are in a backup you made already then you can get them back by restoring from backup.
If they are in your PhotoStream you can get them from your stream. See that topic of:

How can I solve that my I Pod Touch 4th gen. disconnects when I extract the IOS6 software?
Hi, when i connect my I Pod Touch 4th gen. to I Tunes (for Windows XP) to extract the IOS6 Software to the I Pod it disconnects.
How can I solve that the I Pod always disconnects when i want to extract the Software
,Thanks- Reboot the computer and delete the download and try again. The update file is located here:
IPSW file location for Mac and Windows
- Next would be to :
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
or
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
and then try again.

I use genius on the i-tunes on laptop.When selected on 32gb i pod touch (4th gen) says not enough related songs
An "other" that large usually indicates that the "other" includes corrupted files. Usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.
To restore from backup see:

To restore to factory settings/new iPod see:

My I Pod touch 4th gen does not display as connected when I enter i Tunes
My I Pod touch 4th gen does not display as connected when I enter i Tunes, although my battery is being charged and my computer recognizes it, the problem persists. I have also tried the apple troubleshoot for this, but it hasn't worked.

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. -
what can i do to sort my ipod touch 4th gen, when ever i connect it to my laptop my itunes keeps saying, and i quote "itunes could not connect to this ipod, an unknown error has occured" please helpppppp i have not had my ipod for long either
- Try restoring on another computer.

I lost my iPod Touch 4th Gen. Find my iPhone application was not installed. Is there any way if I can find it or else I can lock the device so nobody uses it?
lost/stolen
No app is required.
- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
iCloud: Find My iPhone
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
- If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.
- Apple will do nothing without a court order

Why isn't my iPod touch 4th gen not turning on after getting the ios 5 installed?
I just installed the new iOS 5 to my iPod touch 4th gen tonight and when I got home from dinner (about 10min ago) it still hadn't turned on after letting it sit plugged in for over two hours after the update. I was wondering if anyone knew why it wasn't working or if it had happened to anyone else? Any help?
Try a manual install, as outlined in the link below.

I bought my daughter an I pod touch 3 gen. I tried to do a master reset so I could sync it with my Itunes account. After resetting, all that is showing is an apple that looks like a skull with a flame on top. Does anyone know what I am supposed to do so I can sync it?
Master reset...? Your device was jailbroken prior to you purchasing the device. The only symbol you should see on reboot is an Apple symbol. Download redsnow... google it! Download the latest version and your IPSW (ipod restore firmware) it has to be the correct version. And the "just boot tethered" should fix your device.
But that's only if you didnt back the device up. If you don't care about any of the data on the ipod then you can simply open itunes navigate to the device and click the restore button. This will restore the ipod firmware and install a fresh copy. Good luck let me know if you have any problems. -
my i pod 4th gen will not power up and the battery was fully charged about 5 days ago. it just won't come back on and the computer doesn't recognize that it is plugged in. what should i do? i tried to call apple and they wanted 30 dollars just to talk to me
Have you tried a reset?
Are you able to restore?

Was the music in your iTunes library before?
Before this sync, did you sync the iPod with another computer/iTunes library?
