My iPod Touch will no longer connect to the wifi?

I have a 4g iPod Touch with IOS6.0.1. My iPod was connected to my wifi and working fine two days ago. I went to get on about 7PM yesterday, but there was no connection. I have tried shutting the wifi on and off, airplane mode on and off, reseting the network connections, have made sure I put the password in correctly each time, powered off the iPod, restarted it, and even rebooted it back to factory settings. Nothing has worked. I did get connection finally about an hour ago, but it lasted three minutes and then disconnected again. I know it's not the router because all my other devices that use wifi are working just fine. Does anybody have any other clue as to what to do?

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.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

- Restore from backup. See:

After purchasing songs at the itunes store, ipod touch will no longer synch with the itunes library at all. Also a lock symbol is now on the ipod touch. How do I fix this

After purchasing songs at the itunes store, my ipod touch will no longer synch with the itunes library at all. It won't send the purchases to the device and it won't synch any other music to the device. Also a lock symbol is now displayed at the top of the ipod touch. How do I fix this.
This was the first purchase I made.

Are you following these instructions?
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
Where is the lock icon on the screen?

My iPod touch 4g has stopped connecting to the wifi yet all my other devices are fine?

My iPod 4g hasn't been connecting to the wifi here since last night. It gets up to the point where the little wifi sign next to the server name becomes blue but then the tick never comes up next to the name to verify the connection. I have tried restarting my iPod multiple times, resetting network settings, turning wifi on and off and turning iPod on and off but nothing seems to be working... Anyone got any ideas as to why this might be happening and how to resolve it?

Lost iPod Touch: Will it auto-connect to open wifi?

My daughter received a brand new iPod Touch for Christmas. Not a week later and she lost it at a friend's house.
Fortunately, I had set it up to work with my iCloud subscription and enabled the "Track My iPhone" feature. But of course it is not connected to my daughter's friend's WiFi.
So I was thinking that I could ask that they temporarily open up their wifi network (i.e., not require a password) in hopes that the iPod Touch will automatically scan and connect to the open access point. If it does, then I should be able to both locate it on a map and also trigger it to play a high-volume sound, all through iCloud.
Question is:
Assuming the iPod Touch's battery is not already drained....does the iPod Touch automatically/consistently scan for open wifi networks and, if it senses one, does it automatically connect? Or is it like a laptop, where you have to manually connect?
Thanks in advance for any help with this!

It depends upon what setting you have on the iPod. The following os from the User Guide (sorry about the formatting):
Set iPod touch to ask if you want
to join a new network
Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn “Ask to Join Networks” on or off.
If “Ask to Join Networks” is turned off, you must manually join a network to
connect to the Internet when a previously used network isn’t available.

My iPod Touch will no longer charge from a wall socket, only my computer. HELP!

My 4th generation iPod Touch will no longer charge from a wall socket, only my computer. I tried buying a new cable and USB charging socket (and I bought one made by Apple), but that did not fix the problem. I restored it from iTunes, hoping that would work as well, but that failed. I am at my wit's end. Can anybody here help me? I've bought new equipment, tried rebooting, restoring, etc. but nothing so far has proven successful. If anyone's got a solution, please help!
Thanks!
Signed, a very frustrated iPod user in Ohio!

My ipod touch (4th) suddenly wont connect to my wifi. It connected fine before and all of my other electronics (tablets, computers, laptops, gaming systems, etc.) are connected and working completely fine. I tried turning the wifi setting on my ipod on/off as well as the actual ipod itself. I also tried resetting the network settings but neither of these options worked.

whatdo i do if i forget my passcode for my ipod touch and it wont connect to the computer?

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up
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 iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
