Ok so my original iPod touch is now our 3yo daughters when she has potty time. Unfortunately a lot of the games on my 4s and 5 won't download to the touch but when I try to update its software it says it's up to date? Any advice on what to do? Can I jb it and get software that lets is download newer apps?

We have seen the same, wanted to use a touch for radio at work, all the current apps need a newer software version .... Not impressed with Apple over this
 
Can anyone give advice on this? Thanks!

The highest iOS version the 1st gen iPod touch supports is 3.1.3.... which, unfortunately, isn't compatible w/ the majority of today's heavily used apps. :-(
 
Is there any way I can jb and upgrade it?

Nope... Jailbreaking won't circumvent the iOS version limitations of the 1st gen iPod touch. Cydia has a couple tweaks that "trick" iTunes into thinking you're on a higher iOS version. I can't remember what they are, though... & from what I recall they haven't been updated in quite a while.
 
Ok. Thanks anyways!! So if anyone has a newer I touch they wanna ditch hit me up loL
