Why isn't IOS7 available for the iPod 4th generation?

Even though fourth generation is old is should have to stay with the same ios forever

There is a time when the software just outgrows the hardware. That is what has happened with the iPod 4th gen.
It is just obsolete. So you are just going to have to live with that fact.

  • Can you make IOS 7 for the iPod 4th Generation please?

    Can you make iOS 7 for the IPod 4th generation because to be honest it's not fair to us iPod 4th Generation users that the iPod 5 and the IPhone users get to have it but we don't

    All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory. The 4G only has 256 MB

  • When is the next update for the ipod 4th generation?Today is 5/7/14

    i really am wondering when it is my ipod  is so out of date

    Hey Hhs12, If your inquiring as to wether Apple is going to release an iOS 7 for the iPod 4--  not going to happen. iOS 7 requires 512MB of RAM, only the iPod 5 has the required 512MB of RAM and there is no way to increase the RAM on an iPod. As Stedman1 stated, iOS 6.1.6 is the highest possible for the iPod 4.  Hope this helps. Cheers.

  • Will siri be available for the iPod touch 4th Generation?

    I have an 32gb iPod touch 4th Generation. My Aunt owns an iPhone 4s with siri. I would enjoy having siri on my itouch and I heard that you can get it if you jailbreak your ipod. Is this true? And finally, will siri be available for the iPod touch?

    If I am correct, I read it on Apples website. I believe this is the article of which we are talking about. Now that I pick through it more, I understand that when it comes to Siri, the iPod touch isn't even mentioned.
    Thank you for your help!
    With iOS 6, Siri understands more languages, works in more countries, and is available on the new iPad.2 So you can get more things done in more places around the world. Want to know the latest scores and stats for your favorite teams and players? Thanks to iOS 6, Siri knows the answers. Or maybe it’s movie night. Siri can show you the latest reviews and showtimes. Find the best restaurants in town and make reservations. Even open your apps for you — no tapping required. Say "Launch Flight Tracker" or "Open Angry Birds" and Siri does just that. You can even use Siri to post Facebook updates and tweet for you, too.

    It will not. The 4th generation does not have sufficient RAM to run iOS 7.

  • When will Siri be available for the iPod Touch and the iPad?

    When will Siri be available for the iPod Touch and the iPad? Really wish Siri would be expanded to other high end Apple devises like the iPod Touch 4th generation and the new iPad instead of it just being iPhone 4S exclusive. That's such a cool feature!

    Well.. Me and one of my good friends both have iPod Touch 4th gen 32gb's and my friend read on the Technobuffalo website that IOS 5.1 was suppose to come with Siri for the iPod touch and probably the iPad and I updated my iPod 4th gen to IOS 5.1 and it still doesn't have Siri !

  • Is cydia available for the ipod 4

    sorry to be rude...but is cydia available for the ipod touch 4

    We cannot discuss jailbreaking in these forums. Apple's statement on the issue can be found here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3743
    If you still want to proceed, you'll need to look elsewhere for advice, as well as for help should that jailbreak cause problems.
    Regards.

  • I didn't receive any news about the replacement program for the Ipod 1st generation. I have already sent the serial number online, but didn't have any progress. What should I do? Thank you

    After you set up your service use your repair ID to track your replacement here:

    Remember: You will receive a replacement unit approximately 6 weeks after Apple gets your current iPod nano
    Hope this helps.

    No. it has what it has.

  • Why is Siri only available for the iPhone 4s?

    I think Siri should of been available for iPad2 and iPod touch (4gen.) in the ios5 update. I mean if its just a personal assistant, why not?!

    I agree that Siri should be available for the iPad2 (which has the same A5 dual core processor) and the most current iTouch4.
    But that not withstanding. Is this the same Siri Assistant application that was a free app early last year 2010?  When I got my iPhone4 (last summer) it was one of the first apps I downloaded but I didn't know how to use it well and it got loss in the abyss of my iphone apps library.
    When I tried to use it again, it did not work, giving me a message "retrieval failed"  Siri could not download required info from server.  It is now longer available within the iTunes Store, probably since it was purchased and put in the new iPh4S as an exclusive.
    Can I do something to make the original Siri Assistant app work on my iPhone4.  It is too early for me to upgrade to a new 4S.
