Does An Ipod Touch 5g need protection from scratches?

Hi there, I've recently been pondering whether my ipod touch 5g needs a screen protector. I like using the ipod with just a silicone case over it, so basically it's just a black soft gel back. There is no front facing protection, so I am using the screen with my bare hands. Is this alright? I'm NOT worried about dropping it, all I'm concerned about is scratching the screen primarily with my fingernails. I try to cut them as low as possible all the time, but is it still possible for the ipod to get scratches on it while using it? How resiliant is the glass? Scratch proof? Anyone have their own experiences with fingernail scratching on ipod touch 5g? Love to get some help. Thanks for all answers.

Unless you get grit on our fingers no screen protector is needed. It is grit, not fingernails that scratch the screen. I do not use a screen protector on any of my devices.

Does the ipod touch itself need wifi in order to use find my iphone??

My ipod touch 4g got stolen and i have find my iphone turned on but my question is does the ipod itself need wifi to track it down?? I've tried so many times i played sound, i have a passcode lock on it, i even sent a message to my ipod... But i try to locate it, it says it's offline.it down?? if so there's no way to point to try to find it Right??

Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod. If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number). If any passwords are associated with a bank or any other savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief. All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself. This requires action before the device is lost/stolen. If the device has significant personal information, it should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

When I go to the apple store to exchange it, what do I say and do? Does my iPod touch gen5 need to be in the casing and all that when I give it?

Yeah reply a.s.a.p
All I have is the original packaging the iPod came with. Do I bring that or do I just bring the broken iPod touch gen5
But what do I say?

All Apple wants is the iPod itself, if that's all you're having problems with. They will not need the packaging, nor any of the accessories unless you're having problems with any of them. As to "what you say", you'll tell them what the problem is.
Regards.

How to set up iPod Touch 4G on Windows from scratch again?

Peace people,
(This is my first post)
I have an iPod touch 4g, I am quite happy with it, however, recently, I don't know why, but it won't get backed up. I have windows 7 and the latest version of iTunes. The syncing goes fine, but in the end it gives the message, "iTunes could not backup the iPod *name of ipod* because an error occured". I'm worried sick. I tried deleting previous backups, reinstalling iTunes, restarting my computer, and several other things. If you can help with that, that's good, but now I have another plan, I want to set up my iPod from scratch, like, the first I plugged it in. Maybe that would work. Basically I want Windows and iTunes to forget my iPod, and the next time I plug it in, I want to to happen just like the first time, the process of recognizing the device/usb etc.
Please help me.

It doesn't work, I've tried updatiing iTunes, I've reset the lockdown folder, I've tried a new user, there is no need for updating my Usb drivers, I've tried disconnecting any other Usb device, I didn't do the Layered Service Providers thing because it states that it is done when 'iTunes may unexpectedly quit, may stop responding, or the backup process may never finish' which isn't my case. I even uninstalled my security software and tried backing up, but that didn't work either. The only thing I haven't done is using a different computer, but that's because this is the only laptop I have, and another pc is not accessible at the moment. Though I am thinking about restoring my laptop to its factory settings after backing up important data, but that'll take time, so please if you have any other solution please help me, I want to update my iPod

Have you tried restoring to Factory Default (setup as new).

What the iPod touch really needs.

So I may have missed a thread on this... But does it not seem logical that what the the iPod touch really needs bluetooth. I could care less about using bluetooth for audio, synking or anything else but 1 thing...
Given that the iPhone is locked into AT&T wouldn't a bluetooth enabled pone allow you to use bluetooth's networking abilities to share you cell phones data plan? Granted some wireless providers (cough*verizon*cough) cripple there phones and disable this feature. but it would be at least an option to some people.

The ipod touch does not support bluetooth nor does it have bluetooth built into the device. THere are bluetooth adapters that you might use for like headphones but nothing like data transfer and what you mention. If this is a feature you would like on a future ipod then leave your feedback at the link below.

THese forums are for technical questions regarding the ipod touch and not for speculation or rumors. You should go elsewhere for such a thing. If your interested in how bluetooth works on the iphone then it is best to post your question about that product in the right forum linked below.

Does the Ipod touch third generation have an international power supply?

does the Ipod touch third generation have an international power supply? Am going to travel in Europe and want to know if I need to use a convertor with it or if it has the international power supply and I can get by with the appropriate plug adapter.

They are charged via your computer's USB port. As long as you have a USB charger it will work with the Touch.

Does the iPod touch 4g vibrate in case somebody needs it to?

No. No iPods have a vibrator.

How much storage does the iPod Touch start with?

I no this may sound like a stupid question but I no from preivous experience that when you buy an iPod you don't the full storage they say you get. e.g. my current iPod (Classic 80GB) only comes 74.2GB of storaage.
*So my question is - how much storage does each iPod Touch model start out with?*
For example, the 8GB model may only have 7GB to start out with.
thanks in advance.

You will find ALL storage devices act this way. Your computers hard drive is the same (actual storage of a gigabyte sized drive will be 0.93 times what the stated size is).
An 8GB touch will be about 7.4GB.

IPOD Touch /Phone needs lacks the following serious features :

ipod touch needs serious software revamp and since the first ipod none of those
features included and its a shame that such an amazing product and design lacks
of serious software.
IPOD TOUCH / PHONE needs the following features through a software/firmware
upgrade.
+ create and name playlists through ipod
+ search function
+ display the full info of a song in the display /screen (ie. song artist,
album,etc)
+ display all songs of an artist when the artist menu tab is clicked when a song
splays and not only from the current album
+ rename and delete songs
I don't understand why ipod the best mp3 player, lacks so serious features and I
like to to include the above features in a future upgrade.
If you agree with me and you like those features as well to b included in a
feature upgrade please show your support.

well you can create a playlist on the ipod

A 2G iPod can only go to 4.2.1
Identifying iPod models
iPod touch (3rd generation)
iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.

My ipod touch 5 is charging from 12% to 56% on 1minute and then when its 56 it turns to 26 after 2 minutes what can i do please help me.

help my my battery life is really bad on my ipod touch 5 with ios 7.0.4
my ipod touch 5 is charging from 12% to 56% on 1minute and then when its 56 it turns to 26 after 2 minutes what can i do?, please help me.

Stop unplugging it.
At best, the percentage indicator is approximate and regardless of what your percentage indicator states, the battery will not go from 12% to 56% in one minute - and be able to run the iPod without dropping as much as yours does.
The behaviour that you cite is nothing unusual. If your battery is at only 12% when you plug it in, it will still take two or three hours (thereabouts) to be fully charged. In the meantime, the percentage indicator cannot be relied upon.
Charging a battery takes something like four hours from flat. So plug your iPod in and leave it alone for a few hours. The iPod Touch user guide for iOS 7 states that there is a battery icon in the top-right corner, which shows the battery level or charging status. It appears to be slightly different from earlier versions, but this is is what the guide shows:
I assume therefore, that when the iPod is fully charged, the lightning symbol disappears, leaving only the full battery.
If your iPod shows this lightning symbol when you put it on charge (not your % indicator, but Apple's icon), leave it on charge; check it every hour (maximum of four hours) to see if the lightning flash has disappeared. When it does, then - and only then - is it fully charged. At this time, when you unplug it, your percenatge indicator should show a much better level of charge.
Spend time enjoying your iPod instead of fretting about why a part-charged battery doesn't last as long as you think it should.

Working on a single computer with multiple users, I have set things up to allow each user to view and listen to the others' music libraries under the "Shared Library" function. Can you then connect an iPod touch and copy music from a shared library?

Was your wife logged into the libray at the time you tried to log in? I have had a similar problem and it was because another user was logged into the library when I attempted to. I got the permission denied banner.
