IPod touch texting with new iOS / iTunes account options

My son has an iPod touch and now has texting ability with the new IOS.  His iPod is linked to my account, so my name comes up when he texts.  Can I create a "sub-account" under mine so his name is the sender, not mine?  Or, do I need to make an all new account.?
Any other scenarios to work around without a brand new account?

    Please help

    Honestly, these are WAGs but they're all that I can think of.
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

  • HT4623 Hi, I have an iPod touch 2G with an iOS of 4.2.1 and there are no updates available for my device, I want to download an older version of iBooks that is compatible with my device. Pls what can I do?

    - The 2G iPod can only go as high as iOS 4.2.1. It does not have the hardware to support a higher iOS version.
    - Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.
    - You can only download the current version from the App store.

    Resolve communication issues
    Check the hosts file or TCP/IP filtering, which might cause communication issues between iTunes, ports, and servers.

  • Can I change the Black colour of my ipod touch 4g with new white one?

    Can I change the Black colour of my ipod touch 4g with new white one?

    You can't get a new color iPod for free. Unless you paint it (which I highly reccomend NOT doing), you must buy a new white iPod touch. You can't trade your iPod touch in for a white one.

    I recently have reset my ipod touch 4g with a new apple id and cannot download Facebook,Skype or any app that reqires ios7 or later but ipod 4g can only have ios 6.1.6

    Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)

    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

  • When backing up my iPod Touch to my new laptop, iTunes wiped my iPod and all iCloud data associated with it.

    I was backing up my iPod to my new laptop and it told me to download the new update (not iOS 7). I have a iPod Touch 4th gen. Half way through the update my internet connection died. By the time my connection was back I had to restore my iPod to factory settings because file were corrupted. I thought this was fine and I would just restore from iCloud having backed up several times, but my iPod was somehow no longer asscociated with my apple account and had changed it's 'digital name' with apple. Where has all my data gone, and can I get it back?

  • Why doesn't my iPod touch show up on my iTunes account?

    When I want to download music onto my iPod touch from my computer, my iPod won't even show up on my iTunes account.  I've plugged it in and I've also tried using different cords.  It won't show up and I can't download any music from my computer onto my iPod including putting CDs into the drive and putting them onto my iPod.

    Has your iPod been synced with another iTunes Library? If it has then you'll have to wipe your iPod to sync it with a new iTunes Library.

  • IPod touch 3rd generation not accessing iTunes account through wifi.

    I have a 3rd generation iPod touch with iOS 4.1.  I currently have no computer so I download music directly through wifi.  When I try to download music it asks for my iTunes password, and when I enter it the message pops up asking for the password again.  It does this over and over.  I am using the correct password and even changed my password just to be sure.  The same thing happens when I try to redeem an iTunes card or view my account.  Not sure if it matters but I've been doing this at 2 different Starbucks.  Any ideas?

    It sounds like this may be the fix:

  • What does error -3259 mean? How can i update my ipod touch to the new ios 5?

    I been updating my ipod touch 4 software to the new ios 5 all day. i tried disabling my security programs and firewall, different download programs and reinstalling iTunes, and restarting my ipod touch. But for each attempt i get a different error. i went to the Specific update and restore errror code page and got a reason for each error except for error -3259. Basically my question is: 1. How can i update my ipod software to io5 and 2. What is the reason behind error -3259?

    Connect it to iTunes on a computer and update it from there. Note that the second generation iPod touch(which includes 8GB models sold at the same time as the third generation ones) can't be updated past 4.2.1.
