May 14, 2016 12:43 AM in response to mrhfigby lllaass,If you really have iOS 4.3 as you stated then you either have a 3G or 4G iPod. Then you can update your iPod via iTunes:
To update
Update the iOS software on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
The Settings>General>Software Update comes with iOS 5 and later.
Connect the iPod to your computer and update via iTunes as far as your iPod model allows

- A 2G to 4.2.1. Requires iTunes version 10 or higher. If a Mac it requires OSX 10.5.8 or later.
- A 3G to 5.1.1 Requires iTunes version 10.5 or later
- A 4G to 6.1.6 Requires iTunes version 10.7 or later. For a Mac, that requires a Mac with OSX 10.6.8 or later
- A 5G to iOS 9 Requires iTunes 11.4 or later if you update via iTunes
- A 6G to iOS 9 Requires iTunes 12,3 or later if you update via iTunes. If A Mac you need 10.8.5 or latter. If a PC Win 7 or later

To help find compatible apps for your 3G or 4G iPod:
Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
Install the latest compatible version of an app on an earlier version of iOS or OS X

App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps
You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.
