Facetime and messanging is frequently unresponsive to incoming transmissions on 4th gen Ipod touch any suggestions
I bought my son a 4th gen Ipod Touch. It calls out on facetime and messenging just fine, but will not receive them from any of my apple products(iphone4,ipad2) 50% of the time. It especially seems to have a problem after its been idle all night. Once he has called out on facetime or messaged me first it seems to work ok. Any ideas on what it could take to fix this problem, it acts as if the wireless goes on standby but I cannot find anywhere that has that setting.

Sometimes when listening to music or a podcast, it will stop and start in rapid fire. I have a 4th gen iPod Touch. A Genius suggested something went wrong during the transfer from my MBP to my iPod, but I tried resyncing it, and it seems to happen haphazardly. Even if a podcast plays oddly one time, it might play perfect the next - so it can't have been the sync that went bad.
- First try a reset. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next restore from backup

The home button on my 4th gen iPod touch doesn't work. If i'm luck and i'm pressing hard enough it goes to the home screen. Any suggestions?

Disabling the computer's security software (firewall and antivirus) usually resolves that error.

I can't get my 4th gen ipod touch to turn on but itunes see's it and is in recovery mode. I can hear the beep beep when I plug it in to the usb port. I have also charged it for 3 hrs so far but won't fire up. I tried the customery hold the home and power button routine but don't know what else to do. I tried recovery mode but the itunes say's"waiting for the ipod" and I guess cause it's not on it won't recover. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance to all who reply!
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.

I have a 4th gen. ipod touch. It has software 4.2.1 and itunes always tells me I need to update to ios 6. I always click download and install. After the download is complete, nothing happens. It doesn't install on its own and there is no option to install manually.. Thanks.
Are you sure it is a 4G iPod? Does it have a camera?

4th gen ipod touch stuck on itunes plug in screen and don't have computer i setup with
Hey 34grumpy4u,
Thanks for the question. I understand that your iPod touch is currently in recovery mode, and needs to be restored. You can restore your iPod with any computer, then transfer your information back to your iPod once you have access to your backup (whether it was made via iCloud or iTunes).
If you can't update or restore your iOS device

HT201263 My 4th gen ipod touch is 6 mos old and will not turn on
My 4th gen ipod touch is 6 mos old. Tried to turn on today and nothing. Plugged into computer held down sleep/wake button and plugged into computer with usb. Nothing. It has not been dropped or bumped. It has been stored as I don't use it often only to play music on spotify thru internet. I probably haven't used this ipod more than 20 times. Any suggestions?
- After being connected to a charging source for at least an hour see if placing the iPod in Recovery mode will allow a restore.
- If not successful time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. -
My 4th Gen iPod Touch won't open up the apps I've downloaded. I've tried uninstalling and then reinstalling the app and it seems to only be a temporary fix. The reset and reboot didn't work either. Help would be appreciated.
In more specific terms. The apps that came on the iPod like the weather and maps and whatnot have been working flawlessly. It's just when I download an app and then disconnect from wifi it's almost like I'm on a timer until the app stops working. It acts like it wants to open, the screen flashes black then resets to the home pages. I've tried all of the basic fixes, rebooting, reseting, uninstalling then reinstalling. But like in my...long...question, the reinstalling option only seems to be a temporary fix. I just recently downloaded the 5.1.1 udate (I think that's what it was) does that have anything to do with it, or am I just derpy when it comes to iPods?Try the other suggestions here:

My 4th gen iPod Touch has had a blank screen for about 3-4 weeks now, it will not turn on, sync, or charge. iTunes recognizes its plugged up, but i cant reset it because it says its passcode protected, but i cant enter passcode due to screen not lighting up or working. How do i fix this?
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

Since updating to iOS 6, my 4th gen iPod touch, and my 3rd gen iPad has sound in and out. Sometimes it's on, and then all of a sudden, no sound. I've tried everything from restarting to fully resetting each one starting fresh, but nothing. Please help.
I have exactly the same problem. I have tried almost everything and I am nowhere near an Apple shop as I am working in Africa.
Did you manage to find a solution? Help please if possible. Regards Az -

I got a usb charger for my 4th gen Ipod touch that at first allowed my to charge and transfer music from my laptop to the Ipod now nothing happens when I plug the usb cord and Ipod into my laptop. Its mac so it is an apple system. I am wondering how I can fix this problem I am not very good with techy stuff so this is very confusing how it was working and it just stopped.
Hi johnsmiff99,
That is never fun when your iPod touch does not show up on your Mac. Take a look at the article below to walk you through on getting it to show back up on your iTunes. It is very easy to read so you wont feel overwhelmed with to much techy jargon. Let me know if you get this worked out.
If you don't see your connected device in iTunes for Mac
