Cannot change location with my iPod Touch - always Brussels!

I live in Belgium and set my iPod Touch for Brussels time zone. Great, but yesterday I arrived in JAPAN and even though I try to set the general "Date and Time" for Tokyo, the clocks all show the time for Bruxelles-- that is when I look at international time clocks, it shows the time I've set for TOKYO as the time for Bruxelles (Brussels) -- so when I set the time for 3pm in Tokyo then look at the international clock it says TOKYO is 8 hours later, 11:00 pm -- i.e. iPod Touch thinks I'm still in Brussels--
---when I go back to General settings time and date, yup, it is back to Brussels--
I even did a reset (not total, just basic settings) and NO CHANGE I can't get the iTouch to set the current date and time for TOKYO.
Why not? Is the January program download causing a problem? I wouldn't think so, but...
(I have been using the new programs since the day they were offered)
Any comments appreciated-- I travel lots and love the international clocks-- but I need them to be correct! Can't be a Brussels only iTouch!
Thanks, Steve Tuesday 12 February 2008 (Tokyo)!

OK I solved this by using iTunes with my Mac to update the iTouch-- but what if I don't have my MAC on a trip? How to update the iPod and get the new destination to STICK?

Apple will only give you a 10% recycling discount if you turn in an old iPod when you purchase a new one. Better off selling it yourself.

You can only sync with one computer. I would backup to one computer and then restore from backup.

Try deleting the photo cache from your computer and then re-try the photo sync - the location of the cache, and how to delete it, is on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1314

Try another wifi network. If it still doesn't work, try #2 and #3 in link below. If neither work, you most likely have a hardware issue.

I am running iTunes on an IBM comp system Win XP with a 70gb hard disk. I have 4 kids with 4 IPOD Touches. Their apps and album art are eating up the hard disk space. I changed the Media Folder to an external hard disk. How do I get the apps to go their?

I am running iTunes on an IBM compatible system running Windows XP with a relatively small hard disk (70gb). I have 4 kids with 4 IPOD Touches, multiple IPOD Nanos, etc. Their apps and album art are eating up the hard disk space. I changed the Media Folder through Edit, Prferences, Advances, iTunes Media Folder to an external hard disk. The new music downloads and purchases go there but the apps and other items do not. How do I get the apps and other iTunes software and downloads to go to the external hard disk

There is no built in function to make this happen.
Your options are:
Upgrade the existing hard drive.
Try creating a link for the app folder on the external drive... this may or may not work.
Realistically, a larger hard drive is a better solution, then use the external drive for keeping a backup of the ENTIRE iTunes folder and any other personal data on the system.

No.
Serial numbers are meaningless when it comes to tracking. The ONLY means of tracking is Find my iPod. If you didn't have it, then you can't track it.

Cannot seem to get a signal from my router with my Ipod touch. Lap top and desk top are working fine.

I have been having trouble with my Ipod touch getting a signal from my 2wire router. This is an easy set up for lap top and desk top. Now I can't seem to get the internet with my ipod. I can get the a signal with my wife's ipod 3rd generation with no problems. My old ipod i purchased in early 07. I can get a signal at the local McDonalds or Starbucks. Just not at home. Does anyone else have this problem? I ran the reset as prescribed by apple but have been unsuccessful.

The problem is most likely with your router. Follow the instructions in the router's manual to reset it. Also what security are you using? If it's WEP upgrade to WPA. The iPod sometimes has trouble with WEP "protected" routers. I put "protected" in quotation marks because WEP security is essentially useless. It can be hacked in less that 30 seconds.

How can I locate my lost iPod touch within my WiFi network range?!

I am still using my 1st gen iPod touch from 2008 for apps and music and other uses. I rely on it quite a bit although of course I have a separate cell phone for now (will eventually get an iPhone). However, I synced it with iTunes right before going on a long shopping spree Thursday afternoon then hooked it to my car's stereo system to listen to as I often do. Upon returning home, tired and with multiple bags, I was trying to juggle them all on several trips from my car to front door (about 30 ft.). The iPod touch always picks up my WiFi network in my car as soon as I pull in, and with my hands full on my last trip I realized I'd forgotten to disconnect my iPod touch so I could bring it in too. I'll admit I was getting bogged down and annoyed so I disconnected it then remember also dropping some bags and picking them up from the parking space. An hour later, after finally getting most bags and myself at least somewhat settled, I remembered I hadn't reconnected my iPod touch to its JBL docking system. I soon realized I couldn't find it in the house and went with a flashlight to look in the car and outside between the house and car. I searched for hours in all likely places and again the next day. I also thought about an hour after losing it to check AirPort Utility's advanced pane which includes the logs, wireless clients and DHCP clients. Sure enough it was still picking the device up, every 30 minutes or so periodically showing "binding added" and "binded dropped" for my iPod's IP address via NAT, and also "associated with" and "disassociated with" the iPod's unique MAC address.
My worst fear was that I dropped it outside and someone dishonest took it, but that seems unlikely because I really don't have those kinds of neighbors and I searched immediately for it everywhere it could be (in my car, under it, outside everywhere I walked, in the house in the oddest places like under furniture, in discarded shopping bags, the trash can and even the freezer! Sure enough, for 13 hours AirPort Utility showed activity contacting (or detecting) the device as mentioned above, until about 9:30 the next morning. Since then there has been no log activity detected, and the device itself listed with MAC address has also disappeared under the "DHCP Clients" pane of AirPort Utility. I realize this could simply be the battery dying after all this time (although it should be in sleep mode), but the point is it was close by for all that time even after I'd searched for it, so it is unlikely someone found it easily after I searched everywhere I'd been in the short distance from parked car to home. It also has a black rubber "suit" so the entire thin 8GB device is thin and completely black all over, further disguising it, especially at night.
My question is that since this is not an iPhone and I cannot "call it" to find it, and it is only a 1st gen. iPod touch without a built-in speaker to make loud noises unless hooked to headphones or a line output, how can I find it? It does make the tiny super high-pitched digital beeps when I get a "push" notification but I don't see how that does me any good unless someone from an app I use tries to contact me while I'm in extremely close proximity to hear those faint tones. Anyway, I really do need it and it's driving me crazy knowing it is within such a short range from me either inside my house or car (or outside in a short straight path from car to my doorstep) yet I am helpless. Is there anything anyone can suggest? It's almost worst than knowing I lost it anywhere, because I know it's here, but want to find it soon before someone else does (if outside) or the trash gets thrown out (if it fell in there) or it gets run over if on the street somewhere I missed.

There is no way to automatcally locate it.
Since WiFi does not travel far talk to your neighbors. Perhaps one of them (or their children) found your iPod.
If this does not work make a more thorough search of your house to find it.

I have itunes set up to sync with my Ipod Touch and my Ipad. As of today, it keeps looking for an iPhone to sync with and give me an error message. I don't have an iPhone and don't know how to stop it from popping open with this error message.

I have Itunes set up to sync with my Ipod touch and Ipad. As of today, iTunes has started searching to sync with an iPhone, which I don't have and pops open with an error message stating it cannot locate the iPhone to sync. I have looked in devices and only the iPad and iPod Touch are listed. Any ideas on how to stop iTunes from searching for any iPhone it is never going to find? It is annoying to have it popping up all the time with the error message. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

You should really read the manual.
"How do you restore from backup? "
Restore. When given the choice, choose to use backup.
"And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
They would only be where you put them. What program did you use to import them? Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all. You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

I have been having problems with my iPod touch and my WRT...

I have been having problems with my iPod touch and my WRT54G router. I am so frustrated right now because after following the various steps mentioned in one of these threads, following Earthlink's prompts, and speaking with Apple, my iPod touch will still not work. It is connected to the internet but will not download the pages. It is quite frustrating. I have changed from WPA to WEP, I switched the 4th Generated key to the 1st. I've disabled this, enabled that. I've done just about everything. I updated the firmware. I made the switch from a partial bridge to a full bridge. Still nothing seems to work. Does anyone have any other suggestions? The one thing I have not done is enter the Apple code into the iPod which searches for website...-- I cannot access the internet with my iPod so this web address does not work. If anyone has been successful, will you please give me step by step instructions? Yesterday I was on the phone with Linksys for about an hour. Before that with Apple for about an hour and before that with Earthlink. How it is that I can walk into a Bread Co. or Apple Store and immediately connect to the internet with my iPod but I can't in my own house?? Everyone seems to think it is someone else's problem so I've gone around and around. Not one of the Linksys support personnel suggested I look here on this community forum. I had to pay the $9 fee to have advanced Linksys help but still my iPod does not work and when I called back, the man I spoke with seemed to think the case was closed because my PC, Laptop, and iPod are connected to the internet -- the iPod just won't download the webpages or get mail. My iPod's IP address begins with 192. I would appreciate any help on this matter

I had the same issues with my iPod touch & iPhone. It's a known issue with the touch & Linksys G routers. Go into settings on the touch & do the following.
1. Settings - wifi - linksys
2. Erase your DNS settings & input same numbers as in router
Settings.
3. Http proxy should be
in off position.
4. Close out & open safari you should now have a wireless
connection.
