My ipod touch 5th generation keeps wifi signal for 10-30 minutes and then just stops working.

I've had my ipod for about a month now and it worked fine up until this week.
This week I noticed probelms with the wifi. I would be just on facebook or browsing the web and the wifi would just stop working. Every time I turned wifi off and the on again it would give me about 5-10 more minutes of wifi before I had to do it again. I've never expeiranced this with my other 4th generation or 3rd generation ipod touches. The wifi itself is not the probelm because it works just fine on my laptop. Today I updated my software and the probelm was not resolved.
I need help sould I got to the Apple store and have them check it out?

Does the iPod have the problem with other networks?
Do other devices work OK?

Why does my ipod touch 5th generation completely shuts off even when its charged and then doesnt turn back on?

This is very frustrating. Like three months ago my ipod touch, 5th generation, just turns off out of no where. It will be charged and working fine but then the screen goes completely black and I can't turn it on. But then after like a day or so it turns back on and works until it decides to shut off again. And the cycle repeats. I'm scared its going to break for good.

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.
- 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 touch 5th generation keeps turning itself off

When the ipod is plugged into the charger it works fine. As soon as you un-plug it from the charger and start to use it - it randomly shuts itself off.
The battery is fully charged.
Is there a fix for this?

IPod Touch 5th generation battery on ios 7

I have a iPod touch 5th generation (space grey it came with ios 7) and I was just wondering what the average battery life is. Mine seems to be setting the trend of 4-4 1/2 hours (playing games), and about 7 hours using music, streaming, and browsing. Is this about the average?

Sounds about right. What I have seen is this... on standby the battery will go for days, provided you never use the fool thing, just leave it on. Listening to music from you library with the screen mostly off and wifi and Bluetooth turned off, easily 20 plus hours. BUT, start streaming, gaming (gaming really ***** the power), browsing, anything that keeps the screen on and in motion or keeps your iPod looking for a signal... a few hours between charges is all you get! I always have a charger nearby. Good luck.

I have an iPod Touch 5th generation and all of a sudden it started freezing on the lock screen.

I have an iPod Touch 5th generation that I've had since Christmas 2012 and suddenly today (June 27) when I tried opening one of my apps it froze and then shut the app down. At first I thought it was the app, but then it started happening to Safari and my Photos app. By time I had gotten to work when I slid the bar over to unlock it, it froze and wouldn't do anything. I had tried turning it off, holding the lock button down and sliding the power off slide, but the screen went black instead of turning off. Every few minutes it would suddenly light back up on the lock screen but wouldn't do anything after I slid the thing to unlock it. Sometimes it would seem to turn itself back on (even though I wasn't aware it had turned off, the apple logo never showed up) from black to the loading page (black screen with little circle thing lighting up to show it's loading) to the lock screen which wouldn't do anything. The time is constantly on track and the wifi connectivity icon on the top bar even shows when there's wifi, I just can't do anything with it. I could double tap the Home button and the music bar would show up and the volume level would change through me touching the screen and through the volume buttons on the side, but it wouldn't play anything. I also can hold the Home button and Siri shows up but then I can't actually speak anything to it.
I've managed to connect it to my computer and back it up to iCloud and on my computer and am trying to restore it right now, but I would like to know what's wrong with it. I've had it for about 7 months and have never had any issues with it like this before.

If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..
If your iPod is defective and not abused Apple will exchange it at no cost.

Please Help Me. iPod Touch 5th generation will not download music from itunes

My son has an IPod touch 5th generation that he got for Christmas (3 months old :(! All of a sudden if he is on iTunes and buys a song it won't download. It will say its already been purchased but its not in downloads. I have soft reset and now finally did the erase all data and settings. When it started up and i signed into icloud everything started downloading but the music. If I go into the iTunes app and hit purchased music I can see all the music but when I go to hit specific artists it sits and loads (circle is circling) and won't show me the individual song titles. I'm sick to my stomach that the iPod is not fixable because I can't afford to buy my son a new one and I haven't finished paying this one off. Can anyone help me please? I can add music from iTunes on my computer directly to the iPod when plugged in. So I am assuming this means something is wrong with iPod. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.

First, don't obsess over it. If, in fact, there is something wrong with the iPod, it's still in warranty. Now, I don't know for certain what will fix this for you but here are some suggestions, beginning with one that's quick and easy.
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 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. It could take well over an hour! 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."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

Ipod touch 5th generation update iOS 8 Battery Life

I have recently upgraded to iOS 8 about three days ago and my battery charging time has become longer. It now takes a couple of hours to charge from 20% to 40-50%. It now takes forever to change the battery from red to green. I use to be able to see the difference in color in about 15 to 20 minutes. Also, when I plug in my ipod at 50% battery life, I go back to check on it and the battery is less than 20% even thought it was 50% and plugged in. The amount of battery at the top of the battery does not seem to increase even when plugged in. Should I take my ipod to Best Buy or an Apple store? or could I fix it myself or possibly wait until a new update happens? Anything on tips or directions will be greatly appreciated to fix this! Thanks!

I had an ipod touch 5th generation. I plugged it in at 18% and checked back 5 hours later, 47%. I checked six hours after that and it said 96%. I was looking at it and wondering why it was doing that and i noticed a cosmetic issue i haven't seen before on this model, it BENT. I went to an apple store, explaned the the problem, and since I had it for less than a year, they replaced it for free. I was running IOS 8 and then 8.0.2. I never had a charge problem with ios 7 so the one I got from the store came with 7.1.1. I believe the battery was swollen.

On my ipod touch 5th generation i cannot connect to the internet i did every step in the help section. I reset the wifi, I turned the wifi off and on and still nothing. I even tried to put it in manually but still couldnt connect

The product i am using is a Ipod touch 5th Generation, version 8.1. On friday i had laid my ipod on my jacket which was laying on my mom truck and i went to play basketball. So when i got back it was off, at first i thought it died but the ipod was cold. It wasnt turning on i put it on the charger and it still wouldnt turn on. So i kept it on the charger all night and in the morning (saturday 10/25/14) it turned back on. So i went to the wifi to connect to my home wifi and it said no wifi is found. So i reset the network settings on my ipod and turned off the wifi box for 30 seconds then turned both back on and it still said theres no wifi. I followed every step but it still doesnt show any wifi. I tried to enter it manually but it keep saying "Could not find the network". But when i do it on my brothers phone it works. Can someone please help me get wifi back on my Ipod touch. I did all the steps but still nothing work.

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.
Also heating sometimes works. See:
Why can't I select my wifi settings?
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.

Then:
Does the iOS device connect to other networks? See other networks? If yes that tends 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

In the iPod touch 5th generation can I put a wifi card in it ? Like wifi Vodafone card like in the iPad 3G, In the iPod touch 5th generation can I put a wifi card in it ? Like wifi Vodafone card like in the iPad 3G

In the iPod touch 5th generation can I put a wifi card like Vodafone wifi cards I put a wifi card in my iPad 3G and it works what about ipod ?

Wi-fi card?
The ipod has wi-fi bult in.
Why would you need a wi-fi card?
It sounds like you are talking about a SIM card, which has nothing at all to do with wi-fi. It is for cellular service from a wireless phone provider. If this is what you mean, then no. Ipods are not cell phones and cannot access cellular data.

HT1695 iPod touch 5th generation still says, "Unable to Join Network" despite every attempt to connect to my home's wifi. What should I do?

My new iPod touch (5th generation) does not let me connect to my own home's internet, but yet it will connect somewhere else. I have tried literally everything.
turning wifi on and off
turning router on and off
and it still says that it is unable to join the network. It is an open network so there is no password needed, my old 3rd generation iPod and my cell phone connect just fine, it is only this device. What should I do?
