Connecting Video ipod to 4th gen dock and cables
Can you charge and load music using the dock and USB/Firewire cables from a Monochrome 4th Gen Ipod to a Video Ipod?
They share the same dock connector so you can defininely charge off the Dock. However the new 5th gen iPods do not support data trasnfer with Firewire. So if th dock is connected via Firewire, you will only be able to charge, but not sync.

- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

When try to connect my iPod touch 4th gen to my house Wifi it won't connect, it used to work fine but now it dosen't work, but it does say that the internet is available, but when I tap on it it just loads. all other devices work fine.
Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- 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 your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I have a few scratches on my iPod touch 4th gen screen and it really bothers me and I need a way to fix it without replacing the screen or causing further damage
Hey Pandorafromtn, Not to rub salt in you open wounds, but prevention would have cost less than $10! Anything that will remove the scratches will most likely ruin the screen. I am aware of a product that works well for fill scratches in eyeglasses. It paints on, is kind of milky semi-transparent then drys to a haze. You then rub / polish until clear. Will it damage the coating on an iPod screen? I don't know. But may be for not, I can't remember the name of the stuff. I guess contact a eye care center, they may be able to help. Replacing the screen would be the best option you have or learn to live with it. In the future use a case and/or screen protector. Or you could start working on your incantations, "Oculus Repairus!" Don't forget the flick of the wrist to get your wand in the correct angle as you state "Repairus". All joking aside, Good luck. Cheers.

I just purchased and IPod Shuffle (4th gen.) and can't get it running. I have gone through all of the help available. It shows up in my device manager, but needs a USB driver. It will find it online, but says an error has occurred and access is denied instead of installing. I bought this for a last minute trip with teenagers and I have spent hours on this. I am running Windows 7 and have tried disabling the firewall.
Help, please.Hello, kcanole.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

IPod Touch 4th Gen skipping and popping via USB car stereo...
I have a Pioneer AVH-P3100DVD car stereo and have the iOS 4.2.1 installed on my iPod Touch 4th Gen. Since 4.0.2 my iPod Touch has been flawless with playback. We all know the infamous 4.1 problems with the skipping of music via USB car in-dash car stereos. NOW, with the iOS 4.2.1 there is no skipping whatsoever. However, there is a lot of popping in the playback of my car stereo via USB. I've did a factory restore with iTunes and used some dust remover (air spray container) in the connector on the bottom of the iPod and also used the same dust remover on my USB syncing cable that I use in my car. Does anyone know what the problem may be? Thanks in advance.
I can't help with an answer, but i have noticed the same thing whenever i hook my ipod up to my pioneer 510-ub through the usb...all other mp3s and flashdrives work fine. the pops only occur when the ipod is hooked up.

How can I resolve iPod Touch 4th gen charging and iTunes connection issue?
I have an iPod Touch 4th generation and the other day it stopped charging. When I pug it in, it appears to be receiving a minimal charge to keep it alive, but isn't restoring the battery life and doesn't show that the battery is accepting the charge. After plugging it in for a day, the battery was only partially charged to approximately 20%. I've tried several USB cables and different plug-ins to no avail.
Then I tried to connect it to the computer and iTunes doesn't recognize it. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Apple Device Manager and iTunes software, and resetting the iPod. I've also tried holding the sleep and home buttons at the same time while connecting the iPod to the computer with iTunes software open. Nothing seems to work. I have other iPods/iPhones that connect to iTunes without issue, so it is isolated event with this iPod Touch. I was hoping to restore the iPod to its original settings to see if that would do the trick, but am unable to figure out how without iTunes. Any suggestions? help!Not Charge
- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

and/or
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Any way to connect an iPod Shuffle (4th gen) to speakers that will keep it charged continuously?
I'm trying to setup an iPod shuffle connected to small speakers and have it remain charged continuously. Any way to accomplish this?
I need as simple an interface and setup as possible for my blind Grandmother.No, the current shuffle is a simple device that only has one connection point (the headphones jack) that doubles as the audio output and charging/data connection. On other iPods that have a separate docking connector, you can connect it to something like a USB power adapter and use the separate headphones jack to connect to the speakers. On a shuffle, you are either connecting it to power/data or you are connecting it to headphones (or the speakers). You can't do both at the same time.
It is a good idea to use a shuffle for this purpose, because it is easy to use without the need to look at any screen. If you can find a used 1st gen shuffle in decent shape, pictured here in this document
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1719
it may actually work. That first shuffle has a built-in USB plug (like a USB flash drive), plus a separate headphones jack. Get a USB power adapter like this one
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD810LL/A/apple-5w-usb-power-adapter
and a USB extension cable that is long enough to provide comfortable access. Connect the extension cable to the power adapter, and the shuffle to the other end. I just tried it (without the extension cable) using my 1st gen shuffle, and it seems to charge and play at the same time. I can't be 100% sure because I only played it that way for a few minutes. It might be shutting off the charging while it is playing, but that would not make any sense from the designer's perspective.
The added benefit in your case is that the battery on the used shuffle does not need to be strong, because it is always connected to power. And the shape of the 1st gen shuffle is better, because it is long and narrow (like a remote control), not a tiny square. Also, the 1st gen shuffle has REALLY excellent sound quality. -

How do I connect an iPod Touch 4th gen to home wireless?
I consider myself fairly competent with computers but for the life of me, I can't connect my daughter's new iPod Touch to our home wireless. Her brother's iPod connects just fine. I even tried resetting the network settings, unplugged/replugged our home wireless, entered the IP address and such, nothing works. Last week, it connected fine to a hotel wireless system but won't connect here at home. Suggestions or recommendations?

please help!!
Sorry but you can't locate the iPod via the SN. The SN can only be used to identify the iPod when found. Report it to the police and change the paswards for all accounts used on the iPod.
