Can't connect to the internet with my iPod touch 4th gen.
So I have an iPod touch 4th gen. and have been able to get wifi from my computer with no problem but now it's not working. When I choose the network I've always used I see the 3 lines on top of the screen that show when it's connected to the internet but when I try to open iTunes, the App Store, etc. it says, "cannot connect to iTunes" or whatever it is that I'm trying to open.
I'm so frustrated! I already restarted both my iPod & laptop, connected then disconnected the modem, and resetted the network settings but it still doesn't work.
When i open troubleshoot problems, it says that the wireless network connection doesn't have a valid IP configuration, sorry if I'm too stupid but what's an IP configuration? How can I fix this?
Please help me!
Does the iPod connect to other networks?
Do other devices now connect? ( I thin yo are say no. In that case you have a router problem. Try powering off and then back on the router. Next try changing the security on the router. Test it with no security. The reset ther router. Last, get a new router.)
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: 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 Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:

Could not connect to the internet with my iPod Touch 4th Gen
I set up an wireless ad-hoc network with my windows vista computer with WPA-2 Personal security type, however, while trying to connect it from the iTouch, it keep saying incorrect password.
When I tried setting up another wireless ad-hoc network with WEP security type, and shared the internet through it, I can input my password successfully on the iTouch and get connect to the network, however, when I trying loading a page on Safari, it does not load, and say it is not connected to the internet. Please Help.Does the iPod connect to other networks?

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.

Can I connect to the internet with an Ipad in Santo Domingo, DR while I'm on vacation?
Can I connect to the internet with an Ipad in Santo Domingo, DR while I'm on vacation?
Lots of hotels in the DR have WiFi. And there is plenty of cellular coverage in Santo Domingo (and elsewhere).
One thing to be careful of, the WiFi networks are usually not secured and are very vulnerable to people "listening" for passwords and user names, so don't do any financial transactions online and perhaps consider setting up some temporary passwords for the trip and changing them when you get home.

hey i broke the screen on my ipod touch 4th Gen and im trying to do a backup on the data but it says I need to enter a passcode on my ipod but the screen dosent work so what can I do.
You can't backup the iPod t iTunes then. You will have to use an existing iTunes backup.
If iCloud backup is turned on and the iPod is still working (not disabled), the iPod will automatically backup daily if an internet connection is available and the iPod is connected to a charging source. -

Can't connect to the internet with Airport OR ethernet cable
I know many other people are having problems with airport not being able to connect to the internet. I've never had any problems with my mac before, but 2 days ago, it started to act really funny. When i turned it on, my time and date were changed to Jan. 1, 2000, and I kept on getting notifications about configd and mdnsresponder wanting to connect to the internet. I did a little research and fixed that problem. Then, a few days ago, my internet was dropped from my computer completely, and I've never been able to connect via airport since.
The main problem is that even when I plug the ethernet cable into my mac, I can't connect to the internet either. It worked a few days ago, but now my computer can't even connect. It registers that the cable is in the computer, but thats' about it. The Network Diagnostics assistant tells me to restart themodem, and that hasn't been helping at all. Any helpwould be appreciated.First Reset your Pram to see if resets you clock (the different Date caused the problems. Plus open System Preferences->Date & Time pane. In there make sure you set the current date/time and se if you can have the Mac automatically update the time from a Time Server.

Can't connect to the internet with airport or firewire
I can't seem to connect to the internet with airport or firewire. I recently restored my old G4 mac mini PPC 1.42 (with airport and bluetooth) Tiger 10.4.8 with a new harddrive. I have it connected to my leopard mac pro, internet sharing is on (both computers), the systems are connected, however, the mini just can't connect to the internet. tried it also using airport, no go. network diagnosis seems to go in a constant loop.
works ok with ethernet connection though.
that'll work. -
Can't connect to the internet with my wired desktop computer or my wireless laptop!
I'm stumped? Tonight I was surfing the internet when all of a sudden I lost my internet connection from my desktop computer? I tried various solutions to fix this but nothing worked? I'm currently hooked up to a wireless router model WRT160N. Here's the clincher, I unhooked the ethernet cable from the port on the router labeled "internet" and hooked it back into my ethernet port on my desktop computer and persto everything worked fine!! I can't connect to the internet either using my laptop!? I hooked everything back up to my router and tried accessing the internet but nothing worked? When hooked up like this I lose my internet connection on my desktop computer as well??? I'm confused??? What could be causing this??? I've just recently configured my router last Satuday with the help of a Linksys technician?? I bought my router last tuesday!?! Need help here!!!! Both my laptop and desktop computer have Windows Vista Home Premium as OS.
You need to re-configure your router...

I just drop my ipod touch 4th gen and the screen was crashed.. I am wondering if a get a free replacement in the apple store even though i bought my ipod in futureshop?
Dropping your iPod s not coverd by the warranty. You'll have to pay for the refurbished device:
Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
Apple - Support - Service Answer Center
Out-of-Warranty Service: If your iPod requires service for any other hardware failure that is determined by Apple to be repairable, Apple will service your iPod for the Out-of-Warranty Repair Service fee.
If you want to set up your iPod for the Out-of-warranty service, we recommend that you take your iPod to a local Apple Retail Store. Alternatively, you can contact Apple Technical Support.

Need help with my ipod touch 4th gen
My name is whitney last year i bought a ipod touch 4th gen . And everything was working fine until i had recently updated it to ios 5.0.1 . Ihave internet connection and can view the browser but when i try to view the app store it either keeps loading the page, or it says cannot connect to itunes store or the browser has timed out . I am getting very frustrated about this as last month my ipod was working fine with everything until i had updated it and had to restore it and the problem still persists. And it wont let me verify my icloud account either it also times out and says verfification failed . If anyone out there can help me out i would appreciate it .
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 the screen blacks out or 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. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow 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." -
Issues With My iPod Touch 4th Gen
I just returned my iPod Touch 4th Gen to the nearest authorized Apple service center. Im just worried about my iPod touch if it will be indeed replaced or just repaired.
The first issue is the light leak on the left side, its huge! i can insert my fingernail between the gap of the metal case and the glass. This hasn't really bothered me since i used a silicon casing.
the second issue is i noticed a bubble under the glass. its like a trapped dirt or something. take a look
http://img713.imageshack.us/img713/5218/10312010200.jpg
still, im still being patient, and i did not bother to return it.
but yesterday, boom, i saw a stuck pixel just around the top left of the screen. it was white all the time. i said to my self, this is not good.
i went to the service center immediately, it will take about 4 days before Apple can confirm if my iPod will be replaced or repaired.
Im just sad because I've owned every Apple product (old and latest) except the Apple TV, and this is the first time it happened, in a product (iPod Touch) with so many issues.
I just want it replaced, not repaired, as it has not even turned 1 month old with me. The store where I bought this only offers 7 days outright replacement, that's why im stuck waiting for 4 days confirmation :(((When you get it back, and if you still are not happy, call Apple and asked to get transferred to Customer Relations. Calmly explain the situation and they will do what it takes to make you a happy customer.
