Connecting iPod touch to the Internet via a Mac with a wired Internet connection

I have a Mac Mini which is connected to the Internet using a wired Ethernet connection. I've just bought an iPod touch, but the iPod can't connect to the Internet using the wi-fi network I've created on the Mac Mini, although it knows that the network exists. Any ideas?

What happens when you try to connect to the network? Error message?
These may help

Connecting Ipod Touch to the internet

Hi,
I've been trying to connect my ipod touch to the internet. It picks up my router and connects but won't let me access the internet?
I've reset network settings, renewed license's.
Is there something else I can try?

This is the official apple fix for this problem over the phone!
1. unplug router and other device if you have it for 4 minutes, Not 1 minute not 10 seconds. 4 MINUTES. Then plug back in .
2. Settings, general , reset, reset network settings.
3. Will reboot on its own.
4. It will work , I have done everything there is to get this back on and it was as simple as unplugging it for 4 minutes unlike 1 minute and then doing the reset. When it works make sure to spread some info around about this fix like I have on this forum and youtube videos. Help people out. Thanks

I'm trying to connect ipod touch to the computer

I'm trying to connect my daughters ipod touch to the computer it makes all the beeping noises and is charging but isn't found on iTunes so I can't add anything to it or sync it. It was last synced in January this year. My other daughters iPod touch connects fine.
What has happened and how can I connect it???????

See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

When I plug my iPod Touch into the computer in iTunes it says: iTunes could not connect to this iPhone because an unknown error occurred (0xE8000065)

I have a refurbished iPod Touch and it has been working fine with my computer except for sometimes there's a little delay in iTunes picking it up when I plug it in to my computer and now when I tried to plug it in to my computer it has the message that I posted in the title.

Connecting iPod Touch to Orange / Wanadoo Livebox Wi-Fi with WEP Security

Hi
I'm sorry to post yet another question about connecting to WiFi as this seems to be a major topic of conversation - However I need some specific help if someone would be so kind...
I have an Orange / Wanadoo Livebox in the UK and already have several devices connected to it (including a PS3 connected this morning and 3 Wireless PC's)..; however I can't get my iPod Touch to connect
In 'Settings' / 'Wi-Fi' the Wi-Fi is 'ON' and I can see my home Network WANADOO-XXXX.... When I select this network the iPod asks for a Password and I enter my WEP Key '82F6 FBF1 27 etc etc' - I've tried it in upper case and lower case, with and without the spaces, always using zero rather than the letter 'o' and I have pressed 'Button 1' to put the Livebox into pairing mode but I always get the response 'Unable to join the network "WANADOO-XXXX"'
Please point out my deliberate error to save the iPad Touch getting chucked out the window!!!

I've located the discussion below on this subject but when I change the LiveBox to 'WEP Only' all the other connected devices don't work (including this laptop) because they are using WPA - This is getting reallt frustrating - Can anyone help me please?

Connecting iPod Touch 4 to TV via HDMI not working

When I connect my iPod to the TV using an Apple 30-pin Digital AV Adapter and a HDMI cable, I can hear sound but there is no display on the TV
16GB & iOS 6.1.6

The 4G and earlier iPods only display video via TV-out for apps that support TV out. The Video app is one such app.
What app are you using?

Connecting Ipod Touch to Home Network via Linksys Router

After hours of frustrating attempts and able assistance from Apple product specialists and Linksys agents the issue was finally resolved inadvertently. Here's the solution for anyone having trouble:
1. Perform a hard reset on the router - holding tiny red button next to the power cable in for 30 seconds.
2. Perform a soft reset on the router - unplug the power cable for 30 seconds.
3. Reset your cable modem.
4. After rebooting everything, go to your router pages on the web. Re-establish your network settings. Make sure the Wireless Mac Filter setting is disabled. That worked for us. Hope it will save others the time and trouble we experienced.

Thanks for posting your resolution.
I would also like to mention that Linksys router owners should always update their router firmware to the latest version when encountering connection issues.

Connect Ipod Touch to Mini Mac

Is it possable to use the mini mac as a gate way for my iPod touch using the bluetooth, as sadly I have no wirless internet and still want to connect through my ipod to update the emails I get? Also, may be a stupid question but can the itouch have the iphone OS on it as the apple website suggests that it can?

no. that is not a feature the iPod Touch supports.
Also, may be a stupid question but can the itouch have the iphone OS on it as the apple website suggests that it can?
yes. in fact it does. naturally, some features of the iPhone are not available on the Touch due to partially different hardware (e.g. the mobile telephony feature).

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 manually and still can not get it to connect even though it registers as connected.

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,
