Help! my iPod touch bluetooth cannot discover my iPad nor mac air, but it can discover other devices... I don't understand why.  My Mac and my iPad can't discover it, as well... :(

My iPod touch bluetooth cannot discover my iPad nor mac air, but it can discover other devices... I don't understand why.  My Mac and my iPad can't discover it, as well...

Thanks for this... I actually wanted to pair my iPad with my iPod touch so I can use the keynote remote app in my iPod touch to control my keynote presentations... I was able to control my presentations through wifi... I wanted to use the bluetooth since internet connection is quite slow.. The app tells me I can connect through bluetooth with my iPad but sadly, it can't... I've been trying to pair them but the can't discover each other... :(

  • The iPod Touch 4G is supposed to have 256MB of Ram, but mine can barely reach 90.

    I am well aware that the iPod Touch 4G is supposed to have 256MB of ram, but when using ram checking applications, I can barely get 90. I have had the iPod since it launched, but have taken good care of it. Anyone have any idea what is going on? Anything I can do?
    Thanks!

    The apps tell you how much free RAM you have, not how much total physical RAM the iPod has.

  • My ipod touch burns up when it is charging or sometimes when i play games at the same time it charges. why is this and what can i do to stop it? please help!!!

    HELLO! I have an Ipod Touch thats 32 gb, and its the really old one without the camera. ( im sorry i dont know which generation it is, but i bought it in 2010. ) Anyways, I've had this Ipod for almost 3 years now, and it still works pretty good. The thing im really worried about is that recently, my Ipod has started to overheat, meaning when i touch it, its almost burning. This happens when I charge it, or when I play games on it while charging the Ipod. When i remove the charger, it stops burning/overheating and goes back to normal. Why does this keep happening? Also, what can I do to stop it? please help!!!
    Thankyou!

    J.K. ROFLing  is correct. It is normal for the iPod to get quire warm when charging and during heavy use.. If concerned make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • My brand new ipod touch 5 says it is connect to the internet but I can't access anything

    I just opened an Ipod touch 5 and it says it is connect to my wireless internet at full strength, but when I try to use an internet based application it doesn't work. I can't connect to anything that needs internet.

    The problem could be caused by a firewall in the router.  For reasons that I do not understand, that will affect IOS (iPod/iPad) communication but will not affect computers or other devices.
    You will need administrative access to the router.  If a firewall is present, turn it off and test the iPod again.  If it works, turn the firewall back on but weaken it a notch and test the iPod again.  Repeat as required.

  • My iPod Touch 4 cannot see Wi-Fi connections . . .

    My iPod Touch 4 cannot see Wi-Fi connectionsit located before, but others can still see it and it is working.  Other Apple products see it.  Not all hot spots but only AAFES.
    I have done a complete clean and reset - taking it back to factory, but no good. 
    I also keep dropping passwords on sites I am using when I never leave that site.  Sometimes it will be ok and other times i will be asked for my password over and over within a few minutes.  This usually happens on car repair forums as well as some Do It Yourself sites.  This never happens with other computers I use.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Maybe it is just a loose wifi antenna connection.

  • IPod touch 2G cannot connect to 802.11g

    I'm having trouble connecting my iPod touch 2G to a local wifi network.
    Up until a few months ago, I was using a Time Capsule as a wireless router for an internet connection. I could browse the internet on my iPod touch by connecting to my TC router wirelessly. But then my apartment landlord installed free wifi for all the renters, and at the same time my own internet device that was sharing the internet through the TC stopped working. Since then I have not been able to access the internet on my iPod touch.
    The wifi internet is working on my iMac (very well) and MacBook Pro (fairly well, I sometimes have to move it to another room). But no matter where I go in my apartment, I cannot connect on my iPod touch. In my room I cannot see the wifi network at all; in other rooms it appears momentarily, usually with 2 out of 3 bars on its signal strength icon, but whenever I try to connect I usually get an error that says "Failed to join... (the network)", and occasionally I get a pop-up error that says something like "Unable to join... (the network" and it has a big "Dismiss" button.
    The iPod touch can grab wifi with seemingly no problem at other locations, such as my workplace, my church, businesses in town, etc.
    An app on my iMac called iStumbler reports that my home network is 802.11g. I believe this should be supported on my iPod touch? If so, I cannot figure out why it is not working at home.
    Is it most likely that its antenna is going bad? Or the signal is too weak (it shouldn't be, the signal source is right next to my apartment building, and my iMac shows a strong signal)? Or could it be some kind of software/hardware setting that I should get my landlord to look at or tweak?
    I'm a bit frustrated!

    I did all like you said. After that i have seen that my ipod touch isn't supporting 40mhz mode so i changed it to 20 Mhz and i put B+G band because my ipod is not supporting B+G+N mode. Nothing, i cannot connect. On my other 2 routers i can connect but...my other two are not mine
    I did some screenshots of my router's configuration. If is something to change please help me!

  • My ipod touch say cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the library but I have 10 gb of space left

    My ipod touch shows 10.1 gb of memory, but when I try to transfer a movie from my computer to ipod touch I get a error message that says "Cannot be synced because there is not enough free space to hold all of the items in the itunes library, additional 5.81 gb required. 
    I have had as many as 3-4 movies on here plus my music and had no problem, there are no other movies on my ipod.  Wasssup???  I am 66 years old, can build a house or a car engine, but for the life of me I don't understand this stuff....Help!!

    Unless the move is about 16 GB, you are trying to sync more that the movie to your iPod. I would look carefull at awhat is checked to sync to the iPod.
    Also how big is the "other" category as shown in the colored bargraph in iTunes?

  • TS3899 My Ipod touch 4G cannot connet to internet anymore

    I can see the device is connected to the WIFI network but Safari or email doesnt work. Also, when I go to game center I am asked to enter my user and password and then the device will not send it (over thje internet).
    Tryed several troubleshooters. What else can I do to make it work???
    I really appreciate your help!!!

    Does the iPod connect to other networks?
    Does the iPod see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iPod 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 the 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 make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    Your Touch is working correctly. Currently, without unsupported third party hacks, the Touch has NO disc mode. It will only show up in iTunes.
    how do i put programes and games in my ipod touch
    Right now, you don't. The SDK is scheduled to be released in Feburary. Then developers will be able to write programs that will be loadable.

  • My Ipod Touch is not recognised in itunes or my computer but still charges, Please help

    My Ipod Touch is not recognised in itunes or my computer but still charges when connected via USB Please help

    Did plugging it into another USB port do any good? Make sure it is a USB port on the back of your PC and not via a USB hub or one on the front as they sometimes do not output enough power for the iPod to properly communicate with your PC.
    Do you have another 30 pin dock connector cable around you use to try and rule out a faulty cable? 
    Did you try a hard reset of the device with it still connected to your PC?  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    With the article above were you able to verify that the Apple Mobile Device Service was installing and running on your system?
    Lastly, try plugging it into a different PC to see if it is recognized there.  It can help narrow down whether it is an issue with the iPod or with your PC.

    I have a brand new ipod touch 32gb ipod touch. Upgraded to ios 7. open music app but there is no radio tab to select!!! All online help just says, "just select it".
    I have looked at the "More" part but again radio is not an option.
    Can you help?

    Just wait a bit.  Turn it off, then back on.
    I don't know why, but after the update it doesn't show up right away.
    When it finally does, you will find a red icon on the bottom of the screen, on the left side.
