Ipod Video 30gb (5th Gen?)
Hi all,
having had an iPod 30gb for a while but rarely used it, now that i'm commuting more i thought i'd dig it out and start using it. When I connect to Itunes, it tells me there's a new version of Ipod Software 1.3 available to download, yet when i try to download it, it says am not connected to the internet, when i clearly am.... Am sure i had this problem before, but neve rbothered following it up. Anyone had a similar problem, or able to offer advice to get the software downloaded? |

Perhaps your Firewall is blocking iTunes from connecting to the 'net.

if you can find the firmware for your player manually you can always SHIFT + left click when you press restore and then choose the location of your firmware.
