ios 5 make my ipod 4g slow

Settings-General-About-Diagnostics and Usage-Diagnostics and Usage Data. And the iPod touch 4G seems to be the only thing with this problem. If my iPad 2 and iPhone 4S have no problem with 5.1, I'm sure The New iPad will run it exquisitely.

I bought my iPod Touch 4th Generation with iOS 5.0 already installed, and it works just fine.

I have not experienced any problems.

I had no problems updating to iOS versions 5.0.1 or 5.1 as of today (03-08-12).

I love my iPod Touch, it's great!

I hope Apple intends on making a iPod Touch 5th Generation.

Thanks Apple for such a 'sweet' device.

yeah I guess the iPad HD will be a fast thing cause of the specs... anyway my concern is about the products that I already have and the non-care from apple... I literally spend thousands on apple products... and I feel rip off whith this ipad 4g and with my macbook early 2011... if apple solutions to their problems is to release new product and expect us to invest on their mistakes... i don't thinks is the way to go... this are all expensive devices, and much more for people that lives outside of USA.

And frankly I don't think we should support that behavior at all... to make it worst the produce policies that attempt to the user... no downgrade? so they make a mistake and you have to wait month if not years to get it fix? and I don't see that they are going to fix this one... cause it looks that it's a hardware issue... no memory... so as I say before, if they cannot fix it they should recall the devices and put more memory on them or whatever action they need to give us what we are paying for... and probably this is not the best place to complain cause as we see they read it and they don't care... so we should go to the media, or take legal actions if possible cause I guess is the apple's way... a shame... cause they really made some good products.

Yeah, so far so good. But it looks like version 5.1 is finished and being rolled out to us now. Although I haven't upgraded yet. It's weird though, my device doesn't have a "Software Update" under the general section of settings. Can't seem to figure that one out. :\

You need to have at least on 1GB free, otherwise it's greyed out. And you need at least 5.0, of course ...

Thanks. I have tons of lowmems there, but the last one was 8 days ago ....

Maybe it's because I always fill my pod to the limit ? Something like: missing swap space. I will try it with at least 1GB free space ...

(Today I'm so **** off with all this 😠)

swap space? mmm nop... I have 18gb of free space...

a lot of apps running on the same times... mmm, something to do with that... but It happen to me with 3 or 4 open... there are 12 pages here of people that have this problem in any grade... we are hardly trying to fix it but is apple how have to...

If you update to IOS 5.1, I recommend that you do a clean install. This is a restore and then update. Just make sure that you fully backup your unit. Seems my ipod touch is running smoother and faster, but I will wait to see how things go for the next few days.

Yeah normally i believe Apple stuff are twice better than what they really say in their specs, but after installing iOS 5 everything turned out to be wrong. Apps in my iPod takes alot of time to open and load and worst thing is many apps crashes in the middle. i think theres some problem occuring in my iPod while trying to use gyro in some apps. So i think the iPod users have to wait until some better update comes to it! ➖

Not sure why you guys are having so many issues.

that's because you never had iOS4 on iPod Touch. It was faster, and more stable. With iOS 5.0.1, I had to keep on resetting my iTouch to keep it running smooth, I had Safari crashed on me, Skype voice call with a lot of static noise..... I just think there was a memory leaking somewhere.

After installing iOS 5.1 Everything is fine now. All UI is more responsive now, and I don't have these mini crashes anymore. Highly recommend anyone with iTouch to update it immediately.

I have over 20GB free, and it was still never there.

Actually I have.

I have another iTouch, used 4.0, 4.1, 4.2.1, 4.3.3 etc.

Yo estoy tremendamente disgustado y enojado con Apple y con esta patata de iPod Touch 4G. Va exagerada y desmesuradamente lento. Jamás hubiera pagado ni un sólo € de haberlo sabido con antelación.

El año pasado (Ene'11) compré un iPod Touch 4G y quedé maravillado. Fue un salto cualitativo muy importante y me ví muy atraido por todos los productos Apple basados en iOS (iPod, iPad e iPhone). Ni qué decir tiene que el aparato corría iOS 4.x, en sus sucesivas actualizaciones.

Mi hijo pequeño, que ya jugaba con él con 18 meses (imaginaos... estábamos encantados), lo rompió. Y he estado varios meses sin volver por el ecosistema Apple, iOS, iTunes, AppStore,...

Y finalmente me he decido a comprar otro nuevo iPod, eso sí, con más memoria de soporte que el anterior. Para disfrutarlo más y mejor y para que mi hijo pequeño pudiera seguir desarollando habilidades.

¡¡¡ QUÉ GRAN ERROR !!!

Desde que lo he comprado, hace escasamente 1 mes, todo son problemas. iTunes 10.5 ha destrozado mi Windows XP en un PC (100% de actividad del micro sin hacer nada, incapacidad de conectarse con la AppStore, servicios en segundo plano dando problemas alternativamente,...) y también ha perjudicado una instalación de Windows Vista en un portátil (aunque en menor medida).

Adicionalmente, no he sentido ni el más mínimo deseo de utilizar mi nuevo iPod puesto que su funcionamiento es completamente opuesto a aquel iPod Touch 4G con iOS4.x que compré, usé y disfruté el año pasado. Todo son problemas, todo lentitudes, todo son cuelgues. Me recuerda épocas pasadas hace un par de lustros en que no paraba de ver pantallazos azules BSOD en ciertos SO's. ¡¡¡ INSOPORTABLE !!!

Sólo sé que yo no pago mi dinero para tener esta patata, esta calamidad.

Y que me siento tremendamente defraudado con la afamada Apple.

Tengo un compañero en la empresa (uno de los responsables de los sistemas informáticos) que "era" (antaño) un incondicional de Apple. Poco a poco se está retirando y está empezando a comprar productos Samsung (el último, el Galaxy Note). No entendía muy bien por qué. Pero lo estoy entendiendo perfectamente. Y, lamentablemente, a fuerza de ser maltratado por la propia Apple.

Señores de Apple: al menos permítannos a los propietarios del Touch 4G poder hacer una regresión, un downgrade, a una versión 4.x de iOS. ¡¡¡ Por favor !!!

Does anybody have a j*****n ipod ? Is there the same problem ?

Totally agree: provide us something to allow downgrading to 4.x

Or add a switch to disable multitasking ....
