AirPlay iOS 8 iPod Touch 5th Generation Not Available?

I have an iPod Touch 5th generation (latest generation) that was purchased just over a year ago. I am currently running iOS 8.0.2, and cannot connect to a third-party AirPlay streaming device (a Raspberry Pi Model B running OpenElec version 4.2.1 with AirPlay enabled). I have tried multiple approaches to fix this issue (uPnP on my router, enabling other connections such as SSH and Samba), but nothing I do will cause any AirPlay options to come up in the control centre. However, when I look on an iPhone 4s, the AirPlay options come up immediately in the control centre, and AirPlay works with my third-party device and the iPhone 4s. Is there a bug within the iOS 8 configuration for the iPod touch, or are my settings set incorrectly?
**Note: AirPlay worked before I updated to iOS 8

Mine works just fine and I didn't have to do anything.  However, it may be worth your while to try pairing the devices again,  Also, a system reset wouldn't hurt.  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.

  • IPod touch 5th generation not turning on

    Hello, my iPod Touch 5th gen will not turn on. When I woke up, it would not switch on from pressing the home button or holding down the top button. Last night, it was working when I put it on the charger. The only change that I had made to the iPod was that I put the newer model of headphones in and left them there overnight, but I don't think that would have caused any problems.

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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 touch 5th generation not charging anymore

    I got my Ipod for Christmas in 2012 and it was kept in perfect condition until one little drop that shattered the screen about 10 months ago. The drop never affected the performance of the Ipod in anyway. It worked fine until yesterday when I thought my charger started getting faulty. My friend plugged his phone in and it charged  perfectly fine and that left me to think that it is either the battery that is old/ breaking or the charging port is messed up. I've cleaned it out and plugged it in but nothing is happening. I plug in the charger and no charging notification shows up.

  • IPod touch 5th generation not working right since 8.3 software update.

    I am having problems with my iPod 5th generation. Ever since I downloaded the new 8.3 software update when i plug it into my usb in my car my radio is reading my iPod and indexing my car radio will start playing for 23 seconds than it freezes my radio and stays at indexing and when I look at my iPod it's still playing even though the car radio is frozen at the first song it started on. I have no problems with my 4th generation one I plug it into my car and it works fine through my radio it reads that iPod and indexes it and starts playing and stays playing.

    There's a couple of things you will want to look at:
    1. Make sure you have the latest version of Remote
    2. Check your firewall settings on your Mac (in System Preferences > Security) and set it to accept all connections.
    3. Remote uses two ports through your router firewall that you may have to enable. See this article for details: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1741

  • My iPod touch 5th generation battery indicator does not update when being charged (Updated to iOS 8)

    Note that the iPod touch 5th generation was updated to iOS 8. When I connect my charger to my iPod touch, for the first time, the battery indicator does not update when connected to a power source. Instead of being charged, it says that the battery is being depleted. Please fix this issue. Thank you!

  • The head phone jack on my brand new iPod touch 5th generation is not working properly

    The head phone jack on my brand new iPod touch 5th generation is not working properly. It has sound without the headphones in but when I plug them in it has no sound, it's low, or poppy. I had only used my apple supplied headphones once before and it worked fine. I know it's not the headphones because I tried them on my girlfriends phone and they worked fine.

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - 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
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

  • I have an ipod touch 5th generation, bought a new laptop and authorised it. when i try to sync it says it's not possible because there isn't enough space to hold everything in the itunes library.it won't give me the option of choosing what i want to sync.

    I have an ipod touch 5th generation 64g . Just bought a new laptop and authorised it to use itunes library. When i try and sync my ipod it says it can't do it because there isn't enough space on my ipod to hold everything in the itunes library. I already know that i can't fit everything on my ipod but when using my old laptop i was able to choose what i wanted to sync. Now i don't seem to have the option of choosing what i can sync, it just refuses to do it as there isn't enough space. Why is this???

  • My iPod Touch 5th generation (running IOS 8.1.2)...

    My iPod Touch 5th generation (running IOS 8.1.2), when connected to my iMac (running OS X Yosemite) will charge, but is not regained, or for that matter even noticed by the iTunes application. The iPod will sync to dropbox when connected, but nothing else. On the device, it will ask if to "trust" the iMac, I naturally hit that it should, but still no change.

    or                     
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components

  • Ipod Touch 5th Generation has songs on it that are not mine

    When my "Show All Music" setting is toggled to ON, my Ipod Touch 5th Generation will have several songs I don't own or recognize that is mixed in with my music. These songs are not downloaded to my device, but somehow the Cloud thinks that I own them and has them stored for me. I have checked my ITunes library on my computer but it doesn't show these songs there either. Where did these come from and how can I get them removed?

    Are they the free U2 songs that Apple pushed to your for free?
    If so, to remove them
    Remove U2 Album
    Otherwise:
    - Unsync/delete all music and resync
    To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Manage 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.
