Why won't my ipod update to ios 7

My ipod will not update from iOS 6.1.3 to 7.
I have gone to update software in the "general" tab. and it states that it is update, however it shows it as 6.1.3.

Because, as has been said here many, many times now (not meaning to seem snippy), the fourth-generation iPod touch cannot run iOS 7.

  • Why won't my iPod update to IOS 8?

    Ever since ios 8 came out I've been trying to download it. I tried to download it on my iPod 3 times but it said there was an error. So, i tried iTunes. It didnt work. So i went to an apple support page that told me what to do. After following all those steps it still wouldn't update. It either says "download requested" for ever or it lets me start to download it and after estimating 500 hours left to download it said "update failed". There was only one time were the error said an error code, It was 9006. That means it was a security program blocking the download or causing the error. But i don't have a security program!! ( Only a virus scanner) I've contacted apple support through the phone and they couldn't help. Any one have any ideas? Thanks.

    try the manual install included here:

  • Why won't my iPod Touch install iOS 5.1.1 so I can update to iOS 6

    My iPod touch has automatically downloaded iOS 5.1.1 like a month ago and now I want iOS 6 but I have to install iOS 5.1.1 first. When I go to Settings > General > Software Update and tap Install Now then tap agree and then it says verifying update but then I get an error saying iOS 5.1.1 failed verification because you are no longer connected to the Internet but my Internet is connected and fine!

    Hello,
    This could very well be a network problem on your end.
    Is your router configured properly?
    Is your computer connected to the network?
    Is there a firewall or antivirus program running that could be blocking network traffic?
    Is it restricted in iTunes?
    Have you been able to update in the past?
    These questions may help you find out what the cause may be.
    Try going to iTunes, click your device, and click "check for update".

  • Why won't my apps update on iOS 7?

    My App Store says I have 7 apps to update, but when I go to the App Store, nothing comes up. Why is this happening?

    Because, as has been said here many, many times now (not meaning to seem snippy), the fourth-generation iPod touch cannot run iOS 7.

  • Why won't my ipod touch gen 5 play audio on my Sony speaker dock

    Why won't my ipod touch gen 5 play audio on my Sony RDP-X30iP speaker dock. I have bought a lightning adapter and find that there is no audio from the speaker dock and the dock does not charge the ipod.

    - Reset the dock
    - Go to Sony's support site and check to see if they say it will work with a 5G iPod touch (w/adopter).
    Also look for a firmware update.
    Sometimes this works:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    Or, it just may not be compatible.

  • Why won't my Itunes update to 11.4 It always asks to restart but once i restart it, it just goes back to saying i need to update it again?

    Looks like you have a 3G not a 3Gs...
    Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and “ Check for Updates “...
    If an Update Appears Install it... if not... you are up to date for your particular Device...
    iPhone 3G can only go to iOS 4.2.1

    If you  have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar.  Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar.

    I'd like to know who Marlene is....oh wait, it was a mixup.
    I suspect these posts will be deleted.
    It's every software company's answer to everything - upgrade to the latest version.
    And for good reason, the bugs they know about get fixed, while introducing new ones. Not on purpose, of course, it just happens.

  • Why won't my emails update between my devices?

    why won't my emails update between my devices?

    That's not the issue though.  I have all that already set up.  It's just for my hotmail account.  I have another account that works fine.  It's just annoying to have to see all the same stupid emails on every single device, and then in my hotmail account as well.  Aren't they supposed to be syncing with one another?

  • Why won't my ipod shuffle charge in a portable USB charger?

    Why won't my ipod shuffle charge in a portable USB charger?

    Does the wall charger successfully charged other devices like iPad, iPhones?
    There are some complaints,  that the 10W iPad wall charger does not charge iPod Classic, as it is too high power, Claasic need 1Amp max, but the iPad Charger gives 2 Amp.
    Have a nice day!
