How do you turn your ipod touch on when the screen says connect to itunes?

You connect the iPod to your computer with iTunes and restore via iTunes. If iTunes does not see the iPod try:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
or
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
If iTunes asks for the passcode and you can't enter it or if iTunes does not see the iPod, manually placing the iPod in recovery mode and then restore. For recovery mode:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

If you jailbreak your ipod touch and crack the screen will the warrenty still work? Also, would the warrenty fix the screen?

If you jailbreak your ipod touch and crack the screen will the warrenty still work? Also, would the warrenty fix the screen? Would it cost money? Its a 5th gen.

Once you jail break Apple won't help with the machine. I'm not even sure if they'll honor an 'out of warranty' replacement.
Accidental damage, which is what a broken screen is, starts at $149 US

How to unlock your iPod touch 5g when the screen is broken?

My iPod touch 5g screen broke. It doesn't respond to touching it at all. I'm trying to back it up to my computer but it tells me I need to unlock it first (which I can't do). Is there any way I could unlock it using iTunes or something?

No, there is no way to backup the iPod.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $99 for 16 GB 5G and $149 for the other 5Gs. They do not fix yours.

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

How do you use your iPod Touch?

I'm thinking of buying an ipod touch 5th gen, but I have to convince myself that it would help me significantly before I drop $300 on a device. My question: how do you use your iPod Touch, aka, what things have helped you significantly, excluding games? I've heard a ton about how awesome the new version is, and everything about its camera and retina display, but I want to know that I would actually use one first....
Thanks.

Surf the web from bed and coffee shops/bookstores. When in a store that has WiFi I may research a product that looks interesting to buy.
It is a camera that is always with you (assuming you always take it with you), so you can capture that picture that happens once in a life time. Also the camera is great when shopping for "Big Ticket" items as you can take pictures to remind you of things you were looking at so you can do additional research at home before making your final decision.
Check my mail from bed and coffee shops/bookstores, etc... when WiFi is available.
Use it as an alarm clock, meeting reminder, todo reminder.
Take notes (not school notes, just ideas, stuff I maybe want to buy, useful information I may pick up in a bookstore, books I may want to buy, etc...)
Contains my contacts for friends, family, and businesses (plumber, dentist, doctor, etc...)
Plays music, or in my case, I listen to podcasts
Reading ebooks. I use it a lot to read ebooks. It is always with me, so I can read a book anywhere, such as waiting in a doctor/dentist office, at the motor vehicle registry. And reading in bed is great as when you fall asleep, it remembers what page you were on vs that book that drops onto your face and wakes you back up while at the same time loosing your page
The Maps app is great for finding where something is located, and plotting how to get there (not as good as having an iPhone with GPS, but still useful). Also the satellite images make it easier to visualize where you are going.
When connected to WiFi it can be used for Facetime when calling a friend or family member that also has an iOS device. Seeing a loved one when they are not near can be emotionally satisfying. You can also make skype calls.
I use 1Password to store all my passwords. It keeps them secure, I always have them with me, and I do not need to use the same password over and over again, or make them too simple to remember. 1Password has a built-in browser so you it can substitute the correct password for the web site you are visting without actually needing to look it up.
1Password related but not passwords. Because 1Password encrypts all the data it holds, I can also store sensitive information (such as medical conditions, or other information I do not want made public should my device be lost or stolen), yet always have that information with me should I need it.
I can get the weather. This week, I've been using an app to get high/low Tide infromation, plus sunrise information. But getting weather info when you wake up so you can plan your day and if you need to shovel the driveway before going to work. I find it easier to get the weather from my iOS device than it is to use my laptop or turn on the Weather Channel.
Calclator. 2+2 = 4, but there are times you do need to get something right, and calculators are useful. They have all kinds available, including hexidecimal calculators for programmers.
RSS newsfeed reader (I follow about 20+ feeds, including these discussions groups via RSS feeds).
Travel services. Most airports have WiFi, and you can get updated travel info for your flights via some speciallized travel apps.
If you are into tracking your car mileage, gas usage, maintenance costs, etc..., there are apps for that.
While you can watch video on your iOS device (downloaded movies, YouTube), you can also stream movies from services such as Netflix. This can be useful when traveling, or if you are stuck in bed with a cold, or if you have lost control of the "Remote" and do not want to watch "Dancing with the Stars"
TV related, there are apps that will give you the TV schedule for your area, so you can browse the shows on this evening.
List. You can keep lists, including grocery shopping lists, items to pack for a trip lists, things to do for that bathroom remodel, things you need to get before school starts, Christmas lists, etc.... NOTE: Ideas for Christmas/Birthday/Anniversary gifts may come anytime during the year, but if you do not write them down, you may be scratching your head when the event arrives. Putting them in a list can help you later on.
You can get a Level app. You may laugh, but I have actually used my iOS device to check if something was level. It was there, and a carpenters level was not. Not perfect, but it did what I needed at the time.
Finding a good resturante (Yelp, Urbanspoon, etc...). The iOS device can be very helpful in finding a good nearby place to eat when away from home, or even discovering a new play where you live to get out of that eat at the same place rut.
That is some of the things I use my iOS device for.

How Can You Track Your Ipod If Lost Using The Serial Number

How Can You Track Your Ipod If Lost Using The Serial Number?

The find my iphone app has nothong to do with it.
That app simply allow you to find other devices using your ipod. It has nothing to do with fining the device on which it is installed.
If you set up the find my ipod feature that is built into your ipod and the ipod is on and it is connected to wi-fi and it has not been restored, then you may be able to get an approximate street address using icloud.
Othrewise, it cannot be tracked.
