I have an old ipod touch v 2.2.1. that i tried to update in itunes on a mac book and it downloaded the newest version to the computer but when i go to install on the ipod touch it gives me an unable to restore message about 10 seconds into the update i tried things that were mentioned in the help as far as cycling power and that but am at a loss now. i know its an older device but it still works great but would like to update it
iPod touch, iOS 2.x
What is the exact wording of the error message?
I suspect you have a 1G (original) iPod touch. Those can only go to 3.1.3 by:
Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)

The 1G is the only one without an internal speaker and no volume buttons on upper left edge.
Thank you for ur fast response the iPod touch that I have does have a speaker built in and volume buttons on the upper left side. Been messing with it but still can't get it to upgrade and advice or guidance is appreciated
Again "What is the exact wording of the error message?"?
