$20 Dollar iPod Touch Upgrade reminder will not give up!
Posted on February 14th, 2008 in Apple, iPod Touch, iTunes |
Many people who do not want to pay the $20 upgrade for the 5 new can not get rid of the reminder screen when they plug in the device. Apparently, the No Thanks screen will only come up after a few times connecting. Also many people report a worse problem, when connecting the iPod Touch into their computer and click “No Thanks” iTunes music store become unavailable and their iPod does not show up in the source list to the right.

An angry customer wrote a complaint to iTunes customer service and his letter follows…

I’ve had this exact same issue and it was very annoying. I ended up buying the upgrade just to make that damn opening screen go away. So ridiculous.
I bought the update volunterially! Totally worth it!
I have not upgraded my iPod touch and iTunes never bothers me. I clicked on the tab that said, “dont bother me again,” and it does not.
