Find My Iphone stopped working on 2nd Gen IPOD

Okay..until recently i was able to track my Ipod 2nd Gen on "find my iphone".. I have I cloud set up on my macbook, Iphone 4, Ipod 3rd gen and Ipad 2 with no issues. I have 2 Ipods that are both 2nd gen that used to show up but now one doesn't even show up and the other can't be located.
I have tried various things to try and fix it.
I have reset them IPODs
I have deleted the apps and reinstalled them
I have removed the info from my mobile me under the mail and calender area and reentered it to try and reactivate it.
Location services are on..I even turned them off and on again hoping that might trigger something.
I have tried everything I could think of and read and nothing works..
All software on the devices are up to date..I am at a complete loss at what is going on.. I have tried to locate them on my Iphone, IPad and Macbook and they don't show at all. Any idea would be appreciated.
Thanks

when they dumped mobile me. i just figured it out today. why can't we just log in with our apple ids vs. mobile me. ridiculous.

Find my iphone stop working, why?

Hi, guys
I recently noticed that my app find my iphone stopped working and i could like to discover why?
It was working with no problem until i tried to test for it. I've checked all the configurationand everything seems fine!
I also test the app on a ipad friend to see if the problem was from de apple service but it worked. So i guess its something with my phone.
can anyone help? My location is Portugal
thanks

Who is right? Is her iPhone now "hers" or can her boyfriend track it too?
It's her phone, and no, her boyfriend cannot track it unless he knows her Apple ID & password.

I currently have an iPhone 4s, ipad2 and 2nd gen iPod touch connected to a dock. Can I control the iPod using my phone or iPad if I have iTunes open on laptop?

The Tango app might be of some help with that:

New Nano doesn't work like 2nd gen iPod

When I powered off my 2nd gen iPod and then turned it back on, it would always go back into random play mode. If for example I was listening to an artist with 30 songs and wanted to go back to random play, all I had to do was power off and on and I was back at random play.
With my Nano, powering it off and on returns me to where I last was. The only way I know to get out of that artists play list and get random play again is to click through all the songs until they are cycled through one time. Then I get the main menu and random play again.
There must be an easier way. Does anyone know what it is?
Greg

I have shuffle set to on so I don't think that is it. There must be a way to get the iPod to go from playing only one artist to playing all of them again. Thanks for the reply.

Find my iPhone stopped working on 4.3.3

It seems in the recent months a 3GS of mine which is kept at 4.3.3 has stopped appearing on the Find My iPhone apps.
It has the current log in setup and appears to be enabled, but it just does not show up anymore.
Has anyone else had this problem too?
(Before anyone even suggests, i will NOT upgrade that phone, i need at least one device on an older firmware version since Apple doesnt allow developers to go back and forth between versions to test applications)

Find My iPhone is only supported in a Primary iCloud account. Accounts set up in Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Add Account>iCloud are secondary accounts that don't support this feature.
I really don't see how this ever worked. It is my understanding that all access to iCloud services require iOS 5 or higher, and that legacy access to former MobileMe services using iOS 4 were terminated when iCloud officially launched.
But if you want to try to troubleshoot this anyway, there are some things you can try in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4006.

Find my iphone stopped working after a trip to asia

My daughter took her Verizon iPhone 4 to asia for a month. When she came back iCloud could not find her phone anymore. Location Services are on and iCloud is on. The phone can display its own location. Running iOS 5.x.

Fixed: went to Settings/iCloud, used Delete Account, turned phone off and on, Settings/iCloud, re-entered account info. Phone now found by Find My iPhone.
Additional details: when it wasn't working it always said "Offline".
Phone is currently running 5.1.1.

Find my iPhone stopped working when I restored to factory settings

I have an iPhone4. I set up my find my iphone account. Everything was working perfectly.
Then, one day I restored to factory settings and then restored from a backup. I didn't sign out off my find my iphone account, because I thought that it wouldn't give me any trouble.
Now, when I log in to me.com, or use the iphone app, my iphone can't be found.
I followed all the instructions showed here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2734
But still, my iPhone can't be found
I even tried creating an account with other email adress (hotmail) and still, when I log in to me.com, it says that my iphone doesn't have any available location.
So, I guess that it has to do with restoring without logging out, or deleting the device. But since I'm using the same mobile me account I used from the begining, and the device still has the same serial number, there should be a way to remove every device from my mobile me account and register it again as a new one, or something like that.
Any advice?

Exchange calendar syncing suddenly not working on 2nd gen IPOD touch

Calendar syncing on IPOD touch 2nd generation no longer works with Microsoft Exchange server. Mail syncing works fine.

A full restore is probably not going to solve your ongoing WiFi issues - which are causing your YouTube problems. Best bet is to do two things with your router:
1. Pull the plug, wait a minute or two, plug it back in. (power cycling)
2. If that works, you are done. If not, go to the router manufacturer's website and download and install the latest firmware for your router.
If you are still having problems, reset your iPod network settings - tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. When your iPod restarts, log back into your network by this route:
1. Tap Settings > WiFi > Other
2. Enter your network name
3. Enter your security mode
4. Enter your password
You should be all set. However, if you continue to have WiFi problems, please post a new question, with details about your network setup and router, to one of the other touch discussion groups.

2nd gen ipod touch sleep/wake button will not work

Like the title says, the sleep/wake button (top button) doesn't work on my 2nd gen ipod touch. In short, I can't put it into sleep mode (I have to wait the one minute), turn it off to save the battery, take screenshots, or even reset it (without iTunes, anyways).
I don't have any guesses on why it's not working. It just stopped working one day. I don't see water damage (via the water damage detector in the earbud jack), and I don't think I dropped it in a way that would harm it (unless dropping it on carpet counts).
I should also mention that randomly, one day after school, I was messing with it, and the button worked. I think the battery had died, and I managed to turn it on then. It worked for a few hours (I charged the battery), and then it went back to not working.
The warranty's up (and I'm broke), so I can't repair it. I also want to point out that the problem started not long after the warranty expired. What, at this point, is my best option? Should I just save up for the newest model? Or would it be cheaper and more efficient to save up just enough for a repair? Any other options I should consider?
Thanks in advance.

As I said, you can move on to Restore. Backup everything then Restore as New. Restoring from backup would just copy whatever software issue you may have. But it sure looks more and more like a hardware problem. Take a close look at the button to see if perhaps some dirt particles are stuck there.
You can also make an appointment with a Gnius at the nearest Apple store to have it diagnosed. Apple does not fix iPods, they just replace them with refurbished units, so it won't be cheap. Prices are here: http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/prices/
You can Google for third part repair hops or do-it-yoursel kits.
Good luck.

My IPhone stopped working right after I did the most current update, yesterday. The screen has a picture of the usb cord, pointing towards the ITunes logo. I cannot use the phone at all. I have tried turning it off and on.ITunes won't recognize device

Hi there,
Can someone please help. My IPhoneS stopped working right after I did the latest update which was yesterday. Now, the phone does not work at all. When turned on, the screen shows a picture of USB cable pointing to the ITunes logo. I have tried just about everything, and cannot get it working. It's like it is frozon. My ITunes does not recognize my device. Cannot dial out either. I desperately need to get it working. Can someone please help me.
Thanking you in advance for your help. :-)

The update did not do anything.
AT&T cannot and will not do anything, they do not provide support for iPhones, Apple does.
The issue is not with the iPhone or iOS if you've reset network settings and tried forgetting the Wi-Fi Network, it is specific to the network.
Check the settings on the router, try disabling the security settings first... that will clarify the issue is not with the device but rather the Network.

Please help, 3rd gen works fine, 2nd gen not recognized

My wife & daughter got a 3rd gen ipod for xmas, they are working fine, but my sons 2nd gen ipod is not recognized by the computer or itunes. Nor will it charge, & now to top it off the battery appears to be dead so i cannot reset, restore, or anything. Before xmas it worked fine. Any suggestions for getting it working again.

Have you tried plugging it into a wall charger? If the battery truly is toast, then you need to replace it.

IPhone 5 and iPad 2nd gen weak wifi pick up after iOs 8.0.2 update

Hi,
I have had my iPhone 5 since September 2012 when it first came out and had never have any problems with it with regards to picking up wifi signal. I had battery issues as the phone got older but it didn't really bother me and I had it sent over to Apple to have the sleep/wake button issue resolved about two weeks ago. Since then, I have purchased the iPhone 6 and gave my old iPhone to my husband. As I'm the one who deals with all the gadgets, I do the updating stuff. My iPhone 6 is on the latest iOs 8.0.2 and it doesn't have any problem whatsoever. My iPhone 5 and iPad 2nd gen (3g + wifi) also had the latest iOs update and both have recurring problems now. Both have problems picking up up wifi signals. Even when I have the iPhone 6 next to them, which has full bars (wifi), the two older gadgets are struggling to pick any signal at all. And if they actually get onto the internet, I only get 1 bar and the internet surfing on them are as sluggish as ever. The battery on the iPhone 5 has drastically gone downhill as well. I have tried to change the WPE/WPA2 connection on the router but it is still the same. I even tried to "Forget the network" and logged in manually again to no avail. The keychain thing on iCloud has been turned off but no change has been noticed. Is there anything else I can do to have this issue resolved? Thanks in advance!

HHowever, I am still looking for a way to bypass the "connect to iTunes" logo since I am in a location with only my iPad and I need to use my phone

After installing Maverick on my macbook pro, imessage on my ipad and Iphone stopped working properly. Is there a fix/test.

After installing Maverick on my macbook pro, imessage on my ipad and Iphone stopped working properly.
What I get is a RED exclamation and "Not Delivered". It happens even if i resend it over and over.
I have made sure that the 3 devices all have the same settins in iMessage.
I have made sure to try doing it from the same network and from the cell provider network.
I have tried rebooting all three devices.
The only way to get it to work on my iphone and iPad is to dissable it in Mavericks on my MacBook Pro.
Is this a "feature" of the new OS?

Hi,
On the iOS devices remove the Apple ID.
Set the device in to Airplane Mode (this breaks with the server)
Start with the iPhone to add back the Apple ID - only after you see the iPhone Number is Verified.
The Restart the Mac Version
Accept the pops ups that state what the iPhone is using.
Do same on iPad.
