Does the iPod touch only use wi-fi or if it's plugged in to a PC can it use the internet?

I have never done this myself,  however I know you can use some computer as the WiFi hotspots.  Macs do, and some PCs do. 
There is not a way to physically connect the iPod to use the computers Internet connection.
If you use Windows - look here for help and instructions.

    I have updated my ipod touch but i have to update iphone and ipad 1 and ipad2 . How can I save the udated software in order to avoid teh time for downloading it again each time

    Even though the downloads are for the same iOS version number, they are different downloads and you can't use an iPod iOS update to update an iPhone or iPad etc. The iPad 1 and iPad 2 are also different downloads. So you will need to download different updates for your iPod Touch, iPhone, iPad 1 and the iPad 2.

    No since you can only sync with one computer.

  • Why does my ipod touch only give me sound and no video when connected to tv

    whenever I connect my ipod touch to my flat screen to play a movies or watch a music video saved on the ipod touch ... I get the audio .... sometimes it will show the video but most times its does not ... simply put ... Why? and how do i fix?

    cor-el,
    Thank you for the help. I followed your instructions and it worked in Safe Mode. I went through my Add-ons and disabled them one at a time until I found the culprit.
    Additional question: If I set up Sync and run it for my desktop and laptop, then turn my add-on back on, will it continue to interfere? Or only when it tries to re-sync? I'm asking because I love the add-on that causing the trouble and will have a hard time letting it go.
    Thanks again for the help.

  • HT1296 I can't sync the songs from my computer to my ipod touch. I have gone through the iPod directions on this page and have not found them helpful. For example, I can't find the Autofill button. Can you help?

    I can't sync the songs from my computer to my ipod touch. I have gone through the directions on the iPond help page and have not found them helpful. For example, I can't find the autofill button. Can you help?

    I have already tried following those steps. I went back and tried to follow them again but they did not work. Some of my songs have synced, some have not. And I am still not seeing the Autofill icon on the bottom of the menu or anywhere else. I fear something has been corrupted here and I need to start afresh.

  • On plugging my iPod to the iMac, all the songs got deleted on the iPod. Now it doesn't sync to iTunes and it shows that 'mac os can't repair the device'. How can I get my iPod to start functioning normally again? Please help!

    Hey! I plugged my 80 gb ipod classic to my imac, but had to switch it off when itunes hung. The ipod wasn't switching on , and when it did, all the data, including all my songs were deleted. Now, when I try syncing it to the mac, it doesn't connect to the itunes and I keep getting an alert saying ' Mac osx can't repair the device'. Now, althought all the data is gone, the ipod still shows 30 gb free. What will happen if I partiton my ipod? How do I get it to start functioning again? Please help!

    Try a low level reformat of the iPod's hard drive to possibly try and repair some of its damage. Use the instructions in this article to walk you through the process.

  • If you have a video in camera roll on the ipod touch is it only videos taken with the actual ipod or is it possible to transfer videos from your computer to the camera roll?

    If you have a video in camera roll on the ipod touch is it only videos taken with the actual ipod or is it possible to transfer videos from your computer to the camera roll? The ipod touch was bought in feb. 2011

    You can transfer videos from your computer to the iPod Touch, but not to the Camera Roll.
    The Camera Roll is for temporary storage only - for photos/videos captured by the iPod Touch and for photos saved from a received email or from a website. Photos/videos in the Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera.

  • Does the Ipod Touch 5th generation support AVRCP for bluetooth connectivity.

    Do the Ipod Touch 5th generation support AVRCP for bluetooth connectivity.
    I would like to know if it supports the volume control, call answering function and next/back song panel in a bluetooth headphone. (AVRCP bluetooth)
    Does it support headphones with microphone? (for Face Time, TinyChat or recording)
    Does it support this device on bluetooth with the Ipod Touch 5th Gen?

    Though this wasn't updated (not having the Ipod Touch 5) but seeing the Ipod Touch 4 having both AVRCP and A2DP, Ipod Touch 5 should also have those...
    Thank you so much... Have a wonderful day

  • ITunes not showing songs that are on the iPod Touch

    I have an iPod Touch 4th Generation.
    I use iTunes 11.0.
    I usually connect my iPod Touch to iTunes and play songs from there because I do not put songs in my itunes library.
    I was doing this as usual and today when I connected my iPod Touch to iTunes, songs did not show up on the music tab of "On This iPod".
    Just the previous day, I opened iTunes and there were all my songs.
    Today, iTunes does not show any of my downloaded songs that were not bought from the iTunes Store.
    The iTunes Capacity Bar shows that I have songs on my iPod Touch.
    But when clicking on the iPod and going under the music tab in "On This iPod", there is no music other than a few songs, which were purchased from the iTunes Store itself.
    I also tried third party software just today to check if I can get the songs off my iPod.
    I tried using SharePod and it did not detect any songs, not even the purchased songs from iTunes.
    There are songs on the iPod Touch only. I can play all the songs from the iPod Touch just fine.
    They are simply just not showing up on iTunes.
    How do I get iTunes to show the songs on my iPod Touch? The capacity bar says there are songs.
    I tried SharePod a few times long before this happened, and it showed the songs on the iPod Touch.
    I don't understand why all of a sudden the songs all disappeared from iTunes itself only.
    (I would say this is similar to other issues where iTunes DOES show songs while the iPod itself DOES NOT. Mine is the opposite.)
    Thank you for the help in advance.

    I tried backing up the iPod Touch.
    Now all the songs on the iPod Touch (except for the purchased ones) are turned to blank names and are skipped.
    There is no name for each song or artwork, they all are called 'unknown'.
    Only the purchased songs are left unharmed. Everything else is corrupted now.

  • Will siri be available for the iPod touch 4th Generation?

    I have an 32gb iPod touch 4th Generation. My Aunt owns an iPhone 4s with siri. I would enjoy having siri on my itouch and I heard that you can get it if you jailbreak your ipod. Is this true? And finally, will siri be available for the iPod touch?

    If I am correct, I read it on Apples website. I believe this is the article of which we are talking about. Now that I pick through it more, I understand that when it comes to Siri, the iPod touch isn't even mentioned.
    Thank you for your help!
    With iOS 6, Siri understands more languages, works in more countries, and is available on the new iPad.2 So you can get more things done in more places around the world. Want to know the latest scores and stats for your favorite teams and players? Thanks to iOS 6, Siri knows the answers. Or maybe it’s movie night. Siri can show you the latest reviews and showtimes. Find the best restaurants in town and make reservations. Even open your apps for you — no tapping required. Say "Launch Flight Tracker" or "Open Angry Birds" and Siri does just that. You can even use Siri to post Facebook updates and tweet for you, too.
