Can Sync iPod Touch at the office but not at home.
I had a lot of trouble syncing up my iPod Touch on my work laptop after upgrading to itunes 9.2.1.5. I tried to sync my iPod again while at work and it was able to sync successfully. Repeatedly. At home I get the windows beep when it finds a USB device but nothing happens on iTunes and the iPod doesn't get power from the USB port, no battery icon.
I'm thinking I have an issue on my home network, but I have no clue where to start? And why would the network impact the computer being able to see a device?
HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
I have Comcast also but I use Open DNS which you can get here for free.
Open DNS - Free / Basic
That way your ISP can't redirect your browser.

Hi all,
Would you know whether there is an incompatibility between iPad2 and outlook 2010 calendar? I can sync outlook appointmens down to the device but not up to the computer calendar. The same occurs with my iPhone 4, can sync appointments down to the device, but not back up to the computer. Any help appreciated!Most computer's USB ports do not have enough power to charge iPads while they are active. An iPad will charge while in sleep mode, but very slowly.

Hello,I have downloaded photos from my ipod touch following the instructions but it doesn't download videos.Can you help please?
doesn't download videos
I seen so many of these post for windows users.
Try my little "trick" (must be running iOS 4.3 or better)
Download the app "Download Manager Lite" (FREE) or "Download Manager" Full ($ 1.99 USD)
After downloading, transfer it to iTunes
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
After transferring, Go to your iDevice (on itunes), to the apps page, scroll down, you can add/save videos and/or files.
Click on "Add", find the folder of which your movies are being downloaded. Its much faster than syncing from itunes.
You can do the wi-fi transfer, the best part is that you don't have to be connected to the same wi-fi.
You will get 2 different URLs you need to type on your computer. Type the Web URL not the ftp URL. After that, you should have access to the app, without the need of itunes.
Click on Add, find the folder of where your movies are stored, faster than syncing with iTunes.
HOPE THIS HELPS. -
I restored my ipod touch however the apps will not sync. I tried to re-download but I changed my apple id as my old id is no longer a valid email address. Any ideas out there please?
It might be logical to someone, but not to me. I agree it's a pain.
How did you change your Apple ID? Creating a new one is not what you want to do, but if you changed the ID associated with your purchases then that might have worked. You would need to sign in with the Apple ID on both your iPod Touch as well as in iTunes. I'm not sure how you changed it but clearly they need to match.
If it's just your password that is not getting recognized reset it here: http://iforgot.apple.com/
It will send an email confirmation to the email address associated with that Apple ID. The email address you elect to use might not look anything like your Apple ID. If you don't appear to get an email check your spam filter. -
I am travelling for a year. I have my iPod touch 4g with me, but not my MacBook. Is there a way I can update to IOS 5 without losing my music,apps, photos..
Yes. get a computer with iTune 10.5 and:
- Transfer iTunes purchases to the computer:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other stuff using a third-party program like one of those discussed here. Most are good for music. It is harder to find one for other stuff like synced photos.
Copy music from Ipod to new computer...: Apple Support Communities
- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right-clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting Back Up
- Restore the iPod from backup and sync as neccessary. -
Bought a new Ipod touch and the WiFi does not connect. Tried Reset and total Restore, does not connect to Router on DHCP, tried Static IP, Subnet, Router and DNS manually and still can not get it to connect even though it registers as connected. Using Airport for router, latest firmware, no problems with Iphone 4 or Macbook Pro or any other internet devices. After total Restore (factory settings) tried again, showed connected to router, but does not display "check" next to router but little rotating icon even though the wifi range signal shows connected at full strength and it says it is connected. Just can't seem to get it to generate an IP. Any solutions other than turning it on and off again? Not a Merry Christmas morning.
Ok, so, a couple of things: Denisefromwaleska and I have the exact same size/type/color iPod. Now wishing I'd bought the black one maybe...
Second, Airport is an Express and I have a second one that I carry with me when I travel. Tried to connect my Airport Express to the internet and could not although the iPod did recognize the router and tried to connect to the internet for some time, unlike my previous problem. Updated firmware on my travel router, still could not connect to the internet. Going to try to set up a manual Static IP on the travel router here in a few and conect through it although I predict the problem will persist. Back on the Christmas Present Airport Express router, it is back in play and working fine for all devices save the iPod.
Thanks again for all your help, hopefully I can get a solution in place soon, -
Our IPod connects to the WIFi, but not to the internet.
Our IPod connects to the WIFI, but not to the internet. We have a wireless router which we connect our MACBOOK to the internet and our IPod. The MACBOOK works fine, but not the IPod. It shows to be connected to WIFI, but whenever we try to connect to an internet site i.e. Sarfari, we get an message "Safari cannot open the page becuase it is not connected to the internet". We have tried rebooting, but it has not helped.
Try:
- Resetting the iPod. 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
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Setting

I just bought my daughter a new iPod touch for her bday its not even 4 days old and the screen completely shattered on it. Can this be fixed or do I just have to toss it. I've never bought an I pod or anything before.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

You can do this an an Apple store

Or send it to Apple

On my Ipod Touch 4G, the camers shuter is stuck closed. I have reset it, restored it, turned it off/on, nothing has worked. Operating system is up to date. This has been an issue for a while, but it normally fixes itself.
Try here:

Also try placing the iPod in recovery mode and then try to restore via iTunes. For recovery mode see:

Netflix became available in the Caribbean and Latin America recently and I can stream it on my Ipod touch . I recently had a bad experience with a blu-ray player while trying to stream Netflix. I got a message saying Netflix only supports newer versions of this device outside of the United States and Canada. I wanted to make sure this is not the case with the apple tv before purchasing. Does anyone know for sure if Netflix supports the apple TV outside of the US and Canada?
"I got a message saying Netflix only supports newer versions of this device outside of the United States and Canada"
sounds like an error msg that the firmware of your blueray player is required for compatability -
