    - Try using the Spotlight search. It is likely you just can't find it.
    - Next try a reset. Nothing is 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
    - Last, restore the iPod.

  • I can't use the swipe feature on my ipod touch 5. How can I fix this?

    My ipod touch 5, 28 GB will not allow me to swipe or scroll.  I have to tap the feature I want then a box appears around it & then I have to double-tap to get it to work.  I can't access anything that is not on the first screen because I can't scroll down.  I have no idea what to do to fix this. 

    Please tell me that it has NEVER been jailbroke.  If it has not been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
    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 the on-screen 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 (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • How can I disable the system feature which automatically restarts applications i had open during a previous session ?

    How can I disable the system feature which automatically restarts applications i had open during a previous session ?

    When you log out, uncheck the box to reopen applications. If you're still using 10.7.3, then you will have to uncheck the back with each shutdown or restart.
    10.7.4 update was suppose to fix it that when you uncheck the box, it should remain unchecked for restarts after that.

    You can only uncheck the cell phone number. The only way to delete it is to use for FaceTime and Messages an Apple ID not associated with the iPhone.

  • I can't find the Apps button in my ipod touch, please help.

    I can't find the Apps button in my ipod touch.
    I already downloaded some applications in itunes, hoping to sync it to my ipod touch. However, there is no button for Apps in my ipod touch.
    And in the partitions of my ipod touch memory (music, photos, videos), there is no space for Applications.
    Please help, thanks!

    Oh this is quite easy to solve!
    1) First connect iPod to computer
    2) Launch iTunes
    3) On the left hand side of iTunes, under Library, there is an Apps header?
    4) When you click on that, you should see your downloaded apps?
    5) A little lower down, you'll see your iPod under Devices, drag apps over your iPod's list (over the music, photos, videos area as you mentioned), you'll that that area is highlighted, release left mouse button to drop them apps!
    6) Copying ensues ...
    7) Check iPod
    8) Back at iTunes, click on your iPod's name, look at the right side, you'll see a summary page right?
    9) At the top of that page, one of the menu item is Apps, click on that and you'll see a replica of sorts of your iPod, unchecking apps (or selecting by checking) and then hitting Apply button below, will apply the changes you made onto your iPod.
    10) You can also arrange your iPod from there if you like.
    That was a lot of steps, but its pretty simple to perform, and the last few wasn't really neccessary, it does look more impressive to write a long list of steps however.

  • Can't find the app store on my iPod touch fourth generation

    Can't find the app store on my iPod touch fourth generation. The app store is nowhere to be found on any screens.

    The app store can be rendered invisible if it's turned off in the restrictions.
    Go to settings, general and scroll down to restrictions. If they're set, there'll be a passcode to enter. If you get in then you can see if the app store has been turned off.

  • 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.
