IPod 5th Gen doesn't find any WiFi signals after battery was dead for two days.

I recently bought an ipod 5th generation, it only has the selfie camera (no back camera).
My battery then ran out, and my iPod was dead for two days.
My iPod charging cable wasn't working, so i went out to buy a new one.
After charging it with the new cable, it would not connect to the internet.
My brother has a 4th generation ipod and his picks up and connects to the wifi signal we have here at home, but mine won't even pick up the signal, or any wifi signals period.
I looked around here on the Apple Support but found nothing that helped, I already reset my network settings.
Is there any way to fix this?

If not this
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Then
Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- 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.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

TS1398 new iphone 4 doesn't find any wifi signals

I bought my daughter the iphone4 and it wont pick up any wifi signals, weve never had any problems with our other apple devices and ive tried every single bit of advice i can find on here but i cant get it working, has anyone else experienced this?
could it be a manufacturing fault and will apple repair or replace it?

Apple will replace the iPhone. Tap Settings App > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. See if fixed. If still problem, Restore the iPhone with current iTunes on computer. See if fixed. If still problem, make Genius reservation or set up Service and take or send to Apple for resolution under Warranty. If they cannot get it working, they will resolve it, with a perfect replacement iPhone 4 exactly like yours.

My iPod 5th gen. doesn't have a back camera. Can I trade it in for one that does have a back camera? If I can, can I keep all my pictures and have them switched over to the other one?

If you purchased it from Apple within the last 14 days then you can return it for a full refund. otherwise no. If you purchased it elsewhere you have to check with them.

HT1695 Can't Find any wifi Networks after updragding to 6.0.1

My iPhone 4 can't find any wifi networks after upgrading to iOS 6.0.1 and i can't downgrade what should i do ?
I swtiched off the connection from mobile and restared the router and nothing changed!
Note: My laptop found about 7 Networks my iphone finds nothing

I have the exact same problem.
It popped up on my 8gb iPhone (2.0.1) first time when i just purchased it. The Wheel spins as if it's searching for hotspots (and there are a lot of hotspots where i live). My MacbookPro finds them without any problems.
Second time i experienced these problems, it was after i didn't have a chance to charge the phone, and i figured it was a "Low battery, disable wifi" thing. But even though i charged it fully, it still can't scan networks.
I managed to discharge the battery, until the 10% warning popped up. I connected the charger, and sure enough, it was able to scan networks. Then when i tried to join a network, it stopped working again, and since then i've been unable to scan wifi. Now 3 resets, and a lot of fiddling later, i'm no further than i was before.
The fact that it was able to scan momentarily points me in the direction of the software, but i'm not so sure anymore.
Hope someone can shed some light on this.

HT1386 I have an older iPod (5th gen, 30GB+video). My computer crashed and itunes was no loner accessible on it. On my new computer, how do I transfer the music from my iPod to the library in iTunes that is on my new computer?

I have an older iPod (5th gen, 30GB+video) that I had connected to my computer with iTunes. That computer crashed and the only place my music is stored is on my iPod. How do I move that music to the iTunes program (version 8) on my new computer. When I connect my iPod to my new computer the music shows up in my iPod's music directory but I can't move it to the library.

- iTunes purchases by maybe
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- For other music you need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
newer copy
BTW, this is the iPod touch forum.

Since I installed 7.6, my IPod (5th Gen) can't find my games

EVERYTHING was fine until I installed 7.6. After doing so I had to restore my IPod 4 times, and now the $30 worth of games that I once had on there, cannot be found. They're in/on my computer, and they're in my ITunes Library but it says that my "games cannot be found." I found them, and they were once there on my IPod (5th generation 30GB), but not they won't sync up somehow. I tried the draggin them out of the library onto my desktop, then dragging them to the devices section to my IPod, still doesn't work.
Has this happened to anyone else? Anyone have any suggestions?

I am running Windows XP with a 5th generation Ipod and have had similar issues. (itunes would not sync games to ipod; Received error stating games could not be found yet they were in the Games Folder of iTunes Library.) I followed the itunes trouble shooting procedures and did not resolve my problem. I discussed this with itunes tech support for over a week and got no where.
I have been monitoring this message board and have yet to find a solution.

IPod (5th Gen) doesn't autoplay in car

My wife's new iPod Touch (5th Gen) does not autoplay with her Pioneer headunit (AVIC-5000NEX). You have to either press play each time on the head unit or on the iPod itself. She had no problems with her old iPod classic, but as it began to die, we had to replace it with a Touch. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

- First reset the car system
- Contact Pioneer and see if it compatible with the 5 G with iOS 8. Sometimes they are not.
Also, sometimes this works:
- 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.
- Unsync/delete all music and resync
To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
- 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.

You've pretty much exhausted everything so it is time to get it serviced. Is it in warranty?

Try using this tool to search for apps which are compatible with older iPhones:
iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
I did a search for GPS and founds lots of compatible apps. You might try typing GPS -tomtom to eliminate the tomtom apps.
WhatApp isn't compatible with the older devices, but enter Texting in the search box to find many texting apps which should work.

My ipod 5th gen cannot connect to any locked wifi servers, it is under a year old, and im wondering if it is a technical prob, can i get i fixed or replaced

WiFi problems I think.... Should I bring it to a store to get it checked out? Whenever I type my password for the WiFi connection, it always says its incorrect and I sometimes can't even connect to the unlocked WiFi servers too

Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- 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.
- Power off and then back on the router

IPod nano 7th generation cant find any bluetooth signals

The only signal its been able to find is the one from my Galaxy S2 but it cant find the ones from my Motorola T-10 and T-360.What kind kind of bluetooth devices can it find?

It supports connections with BT headsets/speakers that use the A2DP profile and with BT low energy devices like heart rate monitors etc.

My iPod touch screen doesn't shut off. The auto lock is set for two mintues, and everything else is working fine. I've noticed it only fails to shut off when in the music screen. How do I get the screen to shut off without using the lock button?

Please help. This is really annoying and it runs my battery down. My auto lock is set to two minutes. I've checked several times. Thanks.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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 another cable
- 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.

IPod 5th Gen no longer has sound

Just recently my iPod (5th Gen) won't play any sound through headphones or dock. It shows that it's playing the music, but no sound comes out. I have done the usual Restore, etc. but it still won't work. Software is up to date. Running on Windows.
Any assistance will be appreciated. Thank you.

Does anyone have a cure? Please?
