The apple iOS 5 update IS OUT NOW
The apple iOS 5 update IS OUT NOW
You can update it to iOS 5 the same way you update it to any other iOS version. The 4th generation (and indeed the 3rd generation) iPod Touch can be updated to iOS 5.
If you are running iOS 5, you can update to iOS 6.1.3 (or 6.1.4 on iPhone 5) by going into Setting>General>Software Update. If you are running iOS 3 or 4, you can update to the latest software by plugging your iDevice into your iTunes-authorized computer and wait for your device to be recognized. Once this is done, there should be a pop-up to download and update to the new iOS. Everything should be self explanatory by then.
You cannot. If you buy a new iPod or iPad or iPhone, it comes in iOS 4.3.3 and you have a choice to update to IOS 5 or not.
If it is running anything below iOS 5 you need a cord to update but if it is running iOS 5 or higher than you can update it using WI-Fi.
You have to update your iPad 2 to iOS 5 if you bought it prior to the launch of iOS 5. You can update now to iOS 6 (and soon iOS 7), by plugging your iPad 2 into the computer you authorized with your iTunes account and waiting for the pop up that will ask if you want to install the new software update. The process should take 1-2 hours.
Well on my iphone i got the developer version for IOS 5 before it was released. First you need to download itunes 10.5. go onto apple.com and click the itunes tab. you can find it there. then if your phone is compatible it Will say your phone has an update IF IT IS PLUGGED INTO YOUR COMPUTER. IF IT DOESN'T NOT GO ONTO APPLE.COM AND SEARCH FOR IOS 5
No
iOS 6 came out of beta September 21, 2012 with the launch of the iPhone 5. You can update to the latest iOS 6.1.3 (6.1.4 with the iPhone 5) by going into Settings>General>Software Update or plugging your device into an iTunes authorized computer if you are running anything older than iOS 5. If you are not fond of the iOS 7 update, then you must update to iOS 6 before this fall because after that, Apple forces you to only update to the latest software version or not at all. But you don't have to worry about this is you have a 4th gen iPod Touch or iPhone 3GS which can't get iOS 7.
No you just update form iTunes
Considering updating your iPhone forces you to update to the latest software available for the device, updating an iPhone 3GS now will update it to iOS 6.
You do not get iOS 4.0.2 when you update an iPod to iOS 4.1. iOS 4.0.2 is an earlier version and precedes iOS 4.1. The next version after iOS 4.1 will be iOS 4.2.
