How can I be certain the contact list in my iPod touch updates my computer Outlook contact list when I sync and not go the other way? The options in iTunes are not specific enough. In other words, I want to replace the information in my computer Outlook contact list with the data from my iPod touch. 

How is your iPod configured to sync music from your iTunes library?  In other words, what options and configurations do you have enabled from under the iPod's Summary and Music configuration panes in iTunes?

    Sounds like it might be something more to do with your network rarther that the iPod its self.
    Try reseting the iPod networking connections by going to:
    Settings > Genreal > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    After this you will need to re-join your wireless network agian
    If this doesent work you could try reseting your wireless router/modem

  • My Iphone 4 32GB started having this issue when I downloaded the 2 last 6.1.X... VOICE CONTROL pops-up even when I sleep and calls random people just by the sound of the snoring... in FACETIME even more annoying. I confirm that it does this day and night

    Turn off Voice Control.
    Otherwise, basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).

  • How can I disable wifi while playing music with locked ipod touch?

    When I play music and lock the iPod touch, the wifi stays on which drains more battery than is needed. I don't want to turn off wifi in Settings since I like the flexibility to unlock the iPod and quickly check email, browse the web while listing to music (without going into settings, turn it on, browse, go back to settings and turn it off). Once I lock the iPod while playing music, I'd like the wifi to turn off. I know it will stay on while streaming that is expected, but why is the wifi staying on when playing music of the iPod?? Is there a way to do what I am asking? I don't recall having this issue with OS 1.x or 2.x. Also I have seen some posts asking for the opposite (leave the wifi on when not playing music and iPod is locked). These posts acknowledge that wifi stays on while playing music, so it seems to be 'feature' or bug in the OS.

    henry is correct. you can't do that.
    however, for what it's worth, i have found that wifi connection is similar to mobile phone network connection. i.e. if a phone is searching for a network, it takes up huge amounts of battery, but if it is constantly connected, it doesn't. so it is the 'search' procedure which drains the battery. similarly with my iPod touch. if it is connected to my home wifi network, but i am not using the wifi connection, the battery will not drain significantly. it's when i'm away from home and forget to switch it off that the battery drains. or when i am using it constantly (like listening to a 3.5 hr radio show using safari)

  • How can I get my audiobooks in order on my iPod touch?

    I have an iPod touch (4th gen) and recently downloaded a series of audiobooks from iTunes (Doug Bradley's Spinechillers). There are thirteen books in the series, and I'm not able to make them display in order on my iPod. I've edited their info in iTunes so that they display in order (see picture); I've edited Artist/Album Artist so that information is all the same. In theory, should they not be displaying this way on my iPod? I've deleted and re-synced them after all the changes, but on my iPod they still appear out of order. Can I change this? In the long run, not a huge deal, but I prefer just selecting the next audiobook instead of scrolling through the whole collection. I'm running version 11.2.2.3 on a Dell (Windows 7).

    How are they being displayed on the iPod?
    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       

  • How can I force-install iOs5/6 apps on my iPod Touch?

    Hi, I have an iPod touch version 4.3.5 (ML1). Model is MC540C.
    The App Store sometimes bars me from installing apps because the app has a minimum requirement of iOS 5 or 6. How can I force my iPod to install these apps anyway?

    No, it is more than the screen dimension.
    You have a 4G iPod, why not update?
    To update:
    iOS 4: Updating your device to iOS 5 or later
    You need iTunes 10.7 or later on the computer

  • How can I transfer all of my info from one iPod Touch to a different ipod touch?

    I had an iPod Touch 4, 8Gi, but it got too small, so I bought a 32Gi model. Now I want to transfer everything to the new one and give the old one to my son. How can I transfer everything from one to the other?

    Easy, just restore the new iPod from the backup of the old iPod.  You should be offered this restore option when the new iPod is first connected to the computer.  All your videos. music and apps have to be in your iTunes library since they are synced to the iPod and not in the backup.  You will have to enter new keychain items like passwords since they only restore to the same device unless you use an encrypted backup.

  • How can I get my non purchased song content from ipod touch 4 back to my itunes library. My library

    How can I get my non purchased song content back into my itunes library from my ipod touch 4. My itunes had disappeared so I had to get another itunes & start again. I still have the original song content in the ipod.

    There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

  • How can I import ALL of my files from my iPod Touch to iTunes?

    My laptop recently caught a virus and I had to reformat the hardive meaning losing my iTunes library.  I still have everthing on my iPod and an external hard drive.  I've already tried the transfer purchases button which did just that, transfer my downloaded apps and purchased music.  But what about my 1400 other songs?  I'd rather not download third party software and my wife found a way to do it with her iPod nano but my touch won't work that way because it only reads my iPod as a camera for some strange reason.  Being a 1st gen it has no camera.  When I transferred the purchased files it had me autherize the computer so can I simply just sync it now or will I lose everything?  Or can i just transfer everything from my old library on my external to my new one?

    - For an iOS devoce like the iPod touchyou need a third-party program to copy non-iTunes purchased music from an iPod to a computer
    - Yes you can just import the music from the external HD to your iTunes library.
    - Now to switch syncing computers you need to do the following to retain app data and other information on the iPod.
    - Connect the iPod from to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices i iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup
    Note that the backup that iTunes makes does not include synced media like apps and music. You must hae have those in the iTunes library before the restore since the restore eases the iPod.

    How can I get to use my phone?  When I try and dial out it says:  'You have not been given access to this service'

    Have you chacked with your carrier.  The message you are getting seems to relate to a carrier issue and not something to do with the phone itself

  • How can i downgrade to ios 4.3 on my ipod touch 4g because it only has 8gb and it takes up all my space. HELP

    How can i downgrade my ipod touch 4g to ios 4.3 because i made a mistake of upgrading to ios 5, and i only have 8gb and it takes up basically all my space ! I need help !

    Downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple.
    What do you nean by it taking up all yur space? If when connected to the computer is the "other" category very large?  If it is then restore the iPod to get it to its normal of about 1/2 GB.  Sometimes a restore to factory defaults/new iPod is required.
