How can I get my new ipod touch to work?

I have been trying to get the ipod touch (4th gen.) to work. I tried loading itunes v. 10.5 on my windows 7 but I kept getting an error message. After searching for answers, I found someone that told me to use v. 9.0 of itunes 64. I finally got itunes to work and registered my ipod. Later, I tried to upgrade to v. 10.5 but neither itunes nor quicktime would work right, so I ended up reinstalling the v. 9.0. The problem is that the computer shows the ipod under devices, but it is not coming up in the itunes menu under devices. When I ran the diagnostics (under help) it is telling me that there is no ipod. Is this a defective device? When I turn it on the only thing I get is the apple symbol. I'm totally confused.

You did install the latest iTunes (10.5) right? If the problem was that iTunes does not see the iPod try:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
or
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X

I would contact Apple under your warranty. I doubt you received a new iPod since Apple's policy is to give you a refurbished iPod.

Getting a new iPod Touch to work

Hello,
I can't get my new iPod Touch to work, and I would appreciate help!
I bought an iPod Touch today. I turned it on and the Apple logo appeared, and then instructions to connect the iPod to a computer appeared on the screen. The screen was very dark and I could hardly see what was on it. I connected the iPod to my MacBook Pro. iTunes started and said that the connected iPod was in recovery mode and that I needed to restore it to factory settings before I could use it. At this point, the screen of the iPod was blank. iTunes could not detect the version of the software, the iPod's capacity or its serial number. I tried to restore the iPod but iTunes gave me an error message saying that an error happened. At this point, the iPod was completely unresponsive, and the only thing that I could do was restarting by holding the home and power buttons.
The iPod has been connected to my computer for an hour now, and the situation is still the same. Any idea of what's wrong?
Thanks in advance.

I got mine last week and it started up right away after pressing the home button. then I plugged it into my iMac and set it up. So your situation does not sound normal. I would try:If iPod touch won’t turn on, or if the display freezes or doesn’t respond
Â iPod touch may need charging. See “Charging the Battery” on page 22.
Â Press and hold the Home button for at least six seconds, until the application you
were using quits.
Â If that doesn’t work, turn off iPod touch and turn it on again. Press and hold the
Sleep/Wake button on top of iPod touch for a few seconds until a red slider appears,
and then drag the slider. Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple
logo appears.
Â If that doesn’t work, reset iPod touch. Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button
and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

How do I get my new iPod Touch 64 Gb to play music through my stereo system

As a newbie owner of an iPod Touch 64GB I am trying to figure out how to get music on my Touch to play through my home stereo system. Is there a way to use the output from the Touch via the earphone plug to input to a stereo pre-amplifier to play my music.
Thanks for your help in advance.
PS I realize that I could purchase an Airport Express base station and do it wirelessly.

How can i get the red ipod touch 5g?

i want to buy the ipod touch 5g from a store like walmart but i want to get the red one some people have told me that you have to pre order it
how do i get it?

Do you mean that you want to buy it from a Walmart store, but not from an Apple store?
If so, why not ask the Store that you want to buy from? They're more likely to know the answer to your question than anyone here.
Alternatively, the Apple online Store has it. Just click the Store button at the top of this discussion.

How do I get a new iPod Touch to have the same music setup as my old one?

I have all the songs on my ipod touch in my itunes library, but there are also a lot of other songs I don't want, so I can't just sync the new ipod. I could drag them all individually but that would take hours.
I was thinking I could get an ipod-to-itunes music program, and then just do my whole ipod, then transfer all of those songs to my new ipod, then delete the songs I had imported to itunes. But that's expensive.

The post by Zevoneer will offer some suggestions on how to do 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.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

How can I get my new IPOD Touch to turn on?

Just bought the latest IPOD Touch on Amazon.com. I charged the battery, but all I get when I hit the square power button is a picture of the ethernet cable and the ITunes symbol. I cannot get the IPOD to do anything else. What gives? Did I get a lemon?

Before you can use any of the iPod touch features, you must use iTunes to set up iPod touch. Plug it into a USB 2.0 port on your iMac (not a keyboard port) and iTunes should start and lead you through the process.
Look at the manual http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/iPod_touch_2.2_UserGuide.pdf and read Chapter 1.
