Kneil31, I do not understand what you are saying? From the iPod you can text an phone with a third-party app like text+. You may have to pay to do that though.
Also as wfpIndiana says, you can typically go to that person's carriers site and send a text from the site.

  • How can I iMessage an Irish phone number (iPhone user) from an iPod touch if I only have their phone number?

    Hi there! I would like to iMessage a friend's iPhone from my iPod. I only have their phone number, which is an Irish phone number, though my Apple ID is registered in Canada. I have been unable to find the correct number format i.e. country code, area code, phone number etc.in order for the message to work. I do not have the person's Apple ID. Any info you may have would be greatly appreciated!! Many thanks.

    Thanks so much for the reply! I would do that but they do not have my email address and therefore cannot contact me. As I don't have a cell phone at the moment I guess I may have to revert back to using a pay phone! If I can find one...thanks again!

    Have you tried firm pressure to fully seat the plug into the iPod's headphone jack?
    Does the plug on the headphones look OK and not damaged?

  • I can't seem to find any of my screenshots from my iPod touch on my PC

    This works fine on my computer that I sync my iPod with, but on another PC I can't find my screenshots. I checked my iPod, and I have my screenshots in the saved photos folder, but when I plug it into the PC it says "0 Items" in the DCIM storage. Any suggestions on a fix?
    I'm currently using a 3rd gen (or rather, 2nd gen) 8GB iPod Touch.

    No, if it's 8GB, then it's either 2nd gen or, if it has two cameras, 4th generation.
    There is no such thing as an 8Gb 2nd gen Touch.

  • Can I get the library from my Ipod touch next generation back to my PC?

    Can I get the library from my Ipod touch next generation back to my PC?
    My PC got a virus and I had to reinstall windows from scratch so I lost most of my music. I had a backup program that died in the middle of it so only half came back. the only place that I have all the songs is on the ipod. if I let it sinc it will loose the half that I do not have.
    Any ideas on which direction I should go?

    If your iPod is set to update automatically you need to take care connecting to an empty iTunes. You can use a keyboard command to prevent your iPod auto-syncing with iTunes. While connecting the iPod to the computer on Windows with iTunes installed hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys together. This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes and the iPod will appear in the source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto sync and then you can let the keys go. This may take between 20 to 30 seconds depending on your computer: iTunes - Keyboard Shortcuts for Windows
    If at any point you get a message that your iPod is linked to another library and asking if you want to link to this one and replace all your songs etc, press "Cancel". Pressing "Erase and Sync" will irretrievably remove all the songs from your iPod.
    If you only want to copy your purchases to the computer that can be done using iTunes, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
    For everything else (including purchases) there are a number of third party utilities that you can use to retrieve the music files and playlists from your iPod Touch or iPhone. You'll find that they have varying degrees of functionality and some will transfer data (such as playcounts and ratings), movies, videos, photos, podcasts and games as well.

  • Can you restore an iTunes Library from an iPod Touch??

    I had a hard drive crash on my PC and lost my iTunes Library. Can I recreate it from my iPod Touch? My fear is that I'll connect my iPod and everything will be erased. I have not yet downloaded new iTunes s/w.
    Jim

    Open iTunes first and go to Edit>Preferences>Devices and check the box "Prevent iPods and iPhones from syncing automatically" and choose Ok before connecting your device.
    iTunes will only give you the option to copy your iTunes Store purchases directly from an iPod to the computer, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
    Purchased applications can be downloaded over again, see this article for details: How to redownload purchased applications from the App Store

    Once you have recovered everything from the iPod and your iTunes library has been rebuilt it will be safe to sync again.
    I would also advise that you get yourself an external hard drive and back your stuff up, relying on an iPod as your sole backup is not a good idea and external drives are comparatively inexpensive these days, you can get loads of storage for a reasonable outlay: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

  • Samsung Galaxy Ace - Mountain Lion problem

    Hello,
    Ive recently downloaded Mountain Lion for my Macbook Pro. I have been happy with the program itself however i have a slight issue. When i tried connecting my Samsung Galaxy Ace to my phone it did not estblish a connection. This is quite perculiar as previously it used to work perfectly but post update not so well. I find this quite frustrating now as i can not put any music on my phone! So i was hoping that somebody would be nice enough to suggest some solutions. Ive already tried using a different wire, rebooting my phone, restarting my mac but i have no luck! Hopefully somebody can help me.
    Thanks Junaid
    ( I need to listen to my Jay-Z songs!! ) 

    In my experience with Android Gingerbread, ICS, and Jelly Bean: once you enable USB data/sharing/tethering in the phone settings, then connect a USB cable to the Mac, it just connects and mounts the internal and external SD cards as folders on the Mac desktop. Then you can drag and drop files both ways. You should eject each mounted device to preserve your phone data.

  • Is Samsung Galaxy Ace compatible with Macbook Pro?

    Hi everyone.  I am interested in buying a Samsung Galaxy Ace (Android 2.2 Froyo) but I dont have any idea if its Mac-compatible.  I tried searching the net for answers but can seem to find anything so far...
    Hope you can help me with this issue guys...Thanks!

    DavidGoodnight, I hope FoneSync for Android by Nova Media is the one you are looking for.  Their site says you just search for the app in the Android marketplace, install in your device and it wil just automatically download into your mac after syncing.  I haven't tried it myself because I have given up on buying the Samsung Ace because of compatibility issues but based on feedbacks from other users in this forum, this is the app you are looking for.
    Here is the link for the app: http://www.novamedia.de/en/mac-fonesync-android.html. By the way, the app cannot be used to sync tablets running Android OS 3.x
    I hope this answers your question.

  • Does FireFox Mobile work on the Samsung Galaxy Ace?

    Hi I've just bought a Samsung Galaxy Ace and was looking to get Firefox Mobile as my browser but have been unable to find it in the Android Market. After some digging around I found a link to an installation file on the Firefox help forum : http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/772231?s=ftp&as=s
    I transfered this to my phone but still had no look installing it as this eventually displays: application not installed.
    Am I just being dumb, or is there an issue with the Ace?
    Thanks
    Jason

    Sorry, Firefox is not available for the Samsung Galaxy Ace, because it does not meet the system requirements. For details, see https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android#System_Requirements
