Are there any POSSIBLE ways to connect/sync my iPod Touch 5G to my iTunes 10.6.3(25) on my MacBook running OSX 10.5.8?

So, I bit the bullet. I've always wanted to upgrade to the iPhone 5 from my existing iPhone 3Gs, before I do so, I sort of got the iPod Touch 5G first.
Now to the main question,
"Is there any virtually possible way to connect my iPod Touch 5G 6.1.2 to my iTunes 10.6.3 running on my MacBook with OSX 10.5.8?!?"
I'm still lucky that my iPhone 3Gs still can run on 5.1.1 and sync nicely with my current mac, but I need a new phone. I already have a desktop workstation and I still do have all my data/etc on my laptop.
Or must I have to buy Snow Leopard (if it's still available) and upgrade my old Mac's OS to do so? If so, is it still worth while to purchase SL, or would it be abandoned very soon since it's also considered "old"? and getting a new laptop is quite expensive too as a solution.
Regards,
Vince

This works for 4G iPod and iOS 6. However, it may not work for the 5G because of the Lightning cable. The Lightning cable has active componets and thus it may need OSX 10.6.8 or later to work.

Every time I try to restore my ipod it downloads the software then it says its processing it, then it says it cant download it right now. Is there any other way to unlock a locked ipod touch without the lockcode?

My son can't remember his passcode for his iPod touch and for some reason every time I try to restore it, the software gets updated and it starts processing it then it says there was an error and to try again later. Later, it still does and says the same thing. Is there any other way to unlock it without the passcode?

The only way to clear off the passcode is to restore the device. You could always try the restore process on another computer that has iTunes just to get the iPod working again, then you could plug it back into your comptuer to sync all of his content back on the iPod.

I haven't installed "Find My iPod" but Is there any other way I can find my iPod touch?

I didn't Install "Find My iPod" and I now cannot find my iPod touch..
Is there any way that I may be able to find it?
Have turned house upside down and called every store I went into on the day - still no luck ):
would really appreciate your help!

Just the old fashioned way, like if you lost your wallet.
Apple will not help.
If it is in your home and wifi is on and connected you can call it with FaceTime, Skype or other app that will play a notification sound and listen for it.

Are there any current widespread outstanding issues for the iPod touch 3G?

I'm upgrading from a first-gen iPod touch because despite my whole-hearted love for it, its slighter faults like relatively short battery life and limited space, not to mention the fact that it recently likes borking all my headphones, have led me to want to upgrade. But before I upgrade, I'd like to ask if there are any widespread issues surrounding the new device that are widespread but not covered by the mass media? My brother upgraded his iPod nano and now he has to contend with a headphone issue that simply shouldn't exist, thus my question.
And please no mention of the screen exploding. I don't wear spandex undies

TS4006 Is there any other way to find a lost ipod touch if it is offline? I have tried icloud and Find My iPod.

Is there anything else I can do to find my lost, perhaps even stolen, ipod touch? I have already tried icloud and Find My Ipod app but it says my device is offline.

Nope.
If the device is off then you can't track it.

Are there any parental controls with regard to the iPod Touch?

I'm a bit concerned about my young teenager being able to access the internet via the built in Wi-Fi, download chat apps and possibly inappropriate movies and/or games. Is there anyway to set controls like you would on your home computer? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Get the manual here and read page 95.

If your iphone 3gs just shuts down when theres something wrong with your hardware,is there any possible way to get all your pictures back?

if your iphone 3gs just shuts down when something went wrong with your hardware is there any possible way to get all pictures or other important stuff onto itunes?

What happened to the phone. Did it just go black? Did you try to plug it into Itunes and see if it can be seen or throw it on the charger. You can still try the reset procedure listed in http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430 and see if the phone turns back on.
The only way to get things back is to have backed them up ahead of time.

My documents on my iCloud storage got automatically deleted, is there any possible way to recover them? They're nearly 1GB and very important to me.

On January 26th, I downloaded iCloud for Windows and logged in using my account which was the same with the one on my Mac. 2 days later, at 3:27 PM January 28th, my 1 GB of documents on my iCloud storage got deleted automatically. I'm saying this because at that time I was sleeping and both my Mac and my Windows PC are turned off, and I'm home alone, besides there was no suspicious login reported to me by Apple.
So is there any possible way to recover these documents? I'm a teacher and they're very important to me. My Time Machine wasn't enabled so using it is useless.
Thank you so much for any help.

Please please help me, if you know how.

B-rock, thanks for posting the above. I actually have the same issue, running Windows XP and I don't have that backup location, \Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\. When I go to Documents and Settings\(username)\ there's a AppData folder followed by:\LocalLow\DataMngr\ .
I have the latest update, 5.0.1 and I have the iPod Touch 3rd gen.
I have tried removing itunes and all that is associated with it then reinstalling and keep getting the same message. I've reset my ipod thinking that would help but still, no backup.
In iTunes, Edit, Preference, Device there are no backups.
What am I doing wrong, can you help?
Thank you!

I think you are mistaken.
I have heard of no such e-mail.

Is there any possible ways to get the MAC address?

Hi guys:
I am writing servlets on the server side. Is there any possible ways to get the MAC address when a HTTP request come in? Thank you very much for any helps.
all the best!

It is usually impossible to get the MAC address of the maker of a HTTP request in any programming language or system.
At best, you can get the MAC of the closest intervening router, firewall, whatever.
Are you sure you mean the MAC address? MAC looks like this: 8:ab:f0:0:71:bb:90 (Ethernet), or 01-23-45-67-89-ab (Token Ring), etc, depending on your network type.
In contrast, an IP address looks like this: 209.249.116.195. If you want the IP address, check out the javadoc for HttpServletRequest and ServletRequest. Caveat: load balancers, web caches, proxy servers, etc will mask the "true" peer's address. Don't do anything silly like try to use the IP address for security or authentication.

My new iphone was stolen today. I'm trying to track it via icloud but it shows the average ratio that the phone is disconnected. Are there any other way to track the phone. Thanks for your help.

If the phone is turned off, doesn't have an internet connection, or has been restored preventing "Find my iPhone" from being able to work, there is no other way to track it.

with some 5.0.X.X OSes, the BBm is a core application and cannot be removed.
BUT other 5.0.X.X OSes, the BBm has become an addon application and can be removed. (i.e. 5.0.0.436 and on 5.0.0.462)
if you have the first category OS, I suggest you try and install BBm for example using AppWorld. Maybe by upgrading BBm, it will become an addon.

Often when plugging a device into a computer (which has not been discussed if this has ever happened) one will be given the auto play option of transferring photos/data from the mobile device to the computer. Did you ever transfer the photos from your device to a computer?
