A few iPod Touch questions

Hi. I just got my iPod Touch yesterday, and I love it.
I just have a few questions about music settings and a few things in video.
First, is there a way to look at the album flow so it goes by the order of album name instead of artist?
And two questions about video
Why do some videos have a blue dot next to some of the artist names?
And last, this is about full length movies. I've ripped a movie to my iPod, and I was hoping that I could put in chapter stops, so I don't have to hassle with the entire movie on the one small location-bar (can't think of a better wording for it The slide bar for the position of the movie)
Now, I've tried two things. First, I put the entire movie as a whole onto my iTunes. Is there a way to add chapter stops into that?
I also tried ripping each chapter of the movie, and moving them to iTunes. I put them under the same album name in hopes that they'd be linked together as one movie, but instead the chapters are separate from each other.
Can anyone help with these?
Thanks

Congrats on the new ipod Bonk!
1.no there just i havent found a way myself to do that either. Its just by default to be organized by artist name rather than album name.
2.the blue dots signify new videos that you have synced to your ipod allowing you know which videos are new so that you can find that video easily over older videos you might have on it.
3. on these forums your not allowed to discuss movies ripped from a dvd.But your new so I will just encourage you to check out this site for better info forums.ilounge.com adn search there.

A heap of iPod Touch questions...

Hi everyone!
I've never been the type to want an iPod however with the introduction of the iPod Touch, I can see myself buying one in the near future. However I have a few questions, mainly relating to iTunes, that I want answers to before I splash out $AU549 on my first iPod.
1. Does the Touch come with iTunes on disc?
2. We have 2 computers in out house, one offline, one online. Obviously I will have to activate my Touch online before I can use it. Our online computer is an Intel Celeron about 3 years old with 512MB of RAM running Windows XP Home. Will this be sufficient for satisfactorily running iTunes?
3. Is there anything important I should do before buying a Touch, such as downloading iTunes in advance, keeping in mind I have never owned an iPod before?
4. Can someone please explain the "syncing" thing to me?
5. Is it possible to download content, transfer it to a iPod and then transfer that to an OFFLINE computer as well?
6. How can ordinary mp3s on my computer be put onto my iPod?
I would greatly appreciate any answers and would gladly give clarification if any one doesn't quite understand what I'm trying to say.
Thanks

Podcasts are usually in the mp3 format. Audio Tracks are in AAC Protected format. About Syncing, itunes will work with any computer just note that on the offline computer the music store can't be accessed. You can still import, make playlist all that on it and by connecting an the ipod to it, it will copy all that to the device. Now, for the other computer if you have that ipod synced with with the other and connect it to another, it will erase the ipod onced its connected to the online computer and replace it with that computer's library. (of course if its the same content it won't matter) I would recommend, just from personal expericance to manage music manually, that way you won't have to worry about which songs are on or get replaced. For podcasts and photos for example, you can have set to sync. For manually manage music, to copy songs you just highlight the song and click and drag to the device (and with a whole bunch use the select all feature in the edit menu of itunes and click and drag those)

1st Generation iPod Touch Question

I just got an email from a 1st Generation iPod Touch user who said that my program (Gear Ratio) wouldn't load on his device. I don't actually know how to tell if it should or shouldn't load and run. Is there somewhere in the documentation, or perhaps some kind of simulator setting that I haven't found that allows me to test for iPod Touch?
I checked "iPhone and 2nd Gen iPod Touch" in the iTunes Connect portal, but I guess it isn't clear to me why the program wouldn't work on a 1st gen touch. It doens't use hardly any of the capabilities of iPhone, and certainly not anything specific (like GPS or the phone.) It just takes a few numbers and calculates a result.
Is there a way to test against individual hardware versions without having an actual, physical, version of the hardware?

Hello! Not a problem, because you will get a Ipod Nano 1st generation as a replacement, not a new / latest generation.

ICloud Account on 2 iPod Touches Question

So my friend uses my iTunes account for getting some apps that I have and for other things. Something happened and now he has my iCloud account on his iPod Touch (4th Generation). I want to remove my iCloud account from his iPod Touch but I'm not sure about a few things.
1. If I go to Settings>iCloud>Delete Account will it delete my iCloud account or will it just remove my iCloud account from that device?
2. If I go to Settings>iCloud>Delete Account will it remove all the data on the apps? Will it remove some apps? Will it remove some songs? Will it remove some data? Will it remove anything?
Please Help

Settings>iCloud>Delete Account will only delete the account from the device, not from iCloud. Devices still using the account will not be effected by this.
It will not remove any apps, music or other purchased media from the device.
When you tap Delete Account, you will be given the option to Keep or Delete the iCloud data (if any) from the device. If your friend was syncing contacts with your iCloud account, for example, he/she would want to choose to Keep the data; choosing Delete will delete all synced data from the device.

Mail on iPod touch Questions.....

Hi there,
I am currently considering the purchase of an iPod touch but have a couple of questions about mail. I currently have a cable company based email and a Yahoo Mail account.
Can I have both of these accounts synced to the iPod touch?
If so will Mail on the touch leave the email on the server (so my wife can also view it from Mail on our iBook at home) or will it automatically download all email to the iPod from the server?
Also, if I am out of wifi range will I still be able to generate and email using the touch and would it then send this email automatically when it receives a new wifi signal(kind of like texting on a phone when no service is available)?
Thnx.

It will check automatically for new mail if you tell it too; however, I wouldn't recommend doing that unless you want to charge your ipt twice a day- all that WiFi access goobles up battery time. You can check it manually as soon as you open the application. It updates automatically in that mode.
To answer your specfic question, yes, you can write emails and then send them when in range. It puts them in the "outbox" and will send automatically when a network is found.
As far as multiple accounts/providers, yes, you can set those up easily. And it doesn't remove emails from your server. I read my emails in 4 places. So, you can read them and toss them- they'll still be on your computer.
Welcome to the ipt world.

IPhone vs. iPod Touch -- question

Hello. I'm in the market for a new cell phone and I think I'm going to buy a 32GB iPhone. I already have a 64GB iPod Touch, and my question is: what are the differences between the two? There is, of course, the obvious answer that the iPhone has cell phone capabilities whereas the iPod Touch does not -- I'm aware of this, but I'm curious what the differences are between the two devices aside from this.
The reason I ask is because the 32GB iPhone and the 32GB iPod Touch are both priced at $299, which I found surprising -- I would have thought that the iPhone would be more expensive than its equivalent iPod Touch. The iPhone can do something the iPod Touch can't (the ability to be used as a cell phone), which I would think would make it cost more money than the iPod Touch, so the fact that they are the same price seems to indicate that the iPod Touch must, in turn, have something that iPhone does not, in order to negate the iPhone's cell phone capabilities and explain the equal price.
So, what, if anything, does the iPod Touch have that the iPhone doesn't? Is there anything the iPod Touch can do that the iPhone can't? Are it's audio and video capabilities just as good? In other words, will music sound just as good through my iPhone as it would through my iPod Touch? Will movies look just as good?
What are all the difference between the two devices?
Thank you for your help!

The 32G iPhone is $299 because it's subsidized by AT&T. You have to sign a 2 year contract and pay a monthly data access fee for those 2 years. The actual cost of the 32G iPhone is $500-600. The music and video is the same for both but the new iPhone 4 has the hi-res screen that an older Touch will not.
Google is your friend... there are LOTS of iPhone vs. Touch comparisons on the web. Here's one... http://nexus404.com/Blog/2010/09/09/iphone-4-vs-ipod-touch-4g-almost-identical-b ut-so-different-the-new-iphone-4-ipod-touch-4g-should-be-so-similar-but-they-rea lly-aren%E2%80%99t/

Replaced iPod touch question

I had to get a replacement iPod touch as mine was defective. My question is, when I plug the new touch into iTunes for the first time, how will iTunes know that I purchased the upgrade and an app? I assume iTunes looks for the iPod via a serial number, not a name. I am concerned that when I sync, iTunes will assume it's a new iPod (which it is) and I will have to buy the upgrade all over again.

Urgent! Please Answer iPod Touch Question!

How often does Apple come out with new iPods (on average) Is it about 2 years? Do you think they will drop the iPod? Do you think they will incorporate the new technologies they have discoved with the iPhone 5C and 5S eventually into iPod touch? Please answer ASAP! I know that no one but Apple knows what the next iPod will be like, but does anyone have any ideas of how long I will have to wait to but an iPod 6? Should I just get the 5 now? Help! I know this is, in the end, my descision, but some advice and help would be nice!

IPod touch, question

Hi, I was thinking to get an iPod Touch, could you please give me some advices? I already have a 5th gen. iPod with GBs of music... I'd like to use the touch for wifi internet, games and application, a sort of PDA usage. What do you think about that? Thanks

Thank you. I'm going to get the 8gb model because I already have an iPod video. I'm looking forward to use it as PDA, years ago I had a Palm too but now it's obsolete

IPod Touch question about Firewire and USB cable

I just bought a USB 2.0 extension cable on ebay to charge my 64 GB iPod Touch. I also bought a USB wall socket that I was going to plug the extension cord in to (I haven't received the wall socket yet). Come to find out when testing the extension cord on my laptop I get the message " charging is not supported with this accessory". I thought that was the case only with firewire cables. But this is supposed to be USB 2.0 What's the deal? Can a firewire cable look like a regular USB cable? And does anyone have a work around that I can use?

I realized yesterday that I had another USB wall jack which I use at work to charge my IPT. I took it home with me plugged it into the wall and tried to charge the IPT without the USB extension cord, and it worked fine. When I connected the USB extension cord, I got the same message, "Charging is not supported with this accessory." I'm so frustrated. Mainly because I don't understand what is causing this issue and therefore don't know how to remedy it. I would buy another extension cord, but I don't know if that one will work either.
Here is the link to the USB extension cord that I purchased on ebay:

Stolen iPod Touch Question

Can you somehow recover a stolen iPod Touch for which I have a serial number but did not activate Mobile Me? I read somewhere that you can be notified by Apple when someone connects your stolen iPod to iTunes and that this is because the serial number is tied to your iPod.
-Janelle

No, I'm afraid you are out of luck. What you heard is not true. The most you can do at this point is report the incident to the police and hope for the best. Also make sure to change the passwords for any accounts you may have set up or used on it.
Sorry.

AOL on ipod touch question

My daughter just got an ipod touch and would like to be able to access her aol mail. However, her mother is the primary account on AOL. Is there a way to set up mail using her screen name to access her mail from her mother's primary account?

For anyone who cares, I figured it out. To set up any AOL mail:
imap.aol.com (incoming mail server)
smtp.aol.com (outgoing mail server)

HI ipod touch question?

Is there an new ipod touch more than 16GB or this is the last ipod touch they
made with 16GB..

give it some time. Ipod touch is fairly new and the highest you can get right now is a 16 GB. You'd have to wait till next year for the 2nd generation ipod touch to come out with probably 32 GB, but who knows.
