I have a refurbished ipod touch 4th Gen.  I am having problems backing up because the cloud is almost full. I have tried to delete some apps/pics but it won't let me. Do I need to purchase more storage? Also, I accidentally erased all stored music. It is still on my personal computer and I need to know how to get it back on my ipod. A family member set it up for me. 

You said " I accidentally erased all stored music.".
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Your iCloud backup does not include non-iTunes purchases like music from CDs
If on your iPod now:
Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device: Apple Support Communities
You can go to Setting>iCloud>Manage Storage and see what is using the store and delete items from iCloud

  • My iPod touch 4th gen keeps asking for my iCloud password and it won't backup to my iCloud anymore.

    My iPod touch 4th gen 8gb started to ask me for my iCloud password multiple times even when I put the correct password multiple times. I also checked my iCloud on my iPod and said that the latest backup to iCloud is unknown and says that my iCloud storage details are currently unavailable. Try again later. My iphone 4 also backs up to my iCloud but works perfectly fine. I can't get my email anymore on my iPod either. This started like yesterday and was working fine for a long time.

    What if you try after tuning off  two-step verification?

  • Hi my name is Timothy and I have had my iPod Touch 4th Generation 32 GB for about 8 months and when I got it, it was fast but now i updated it to 6.1.6 and it goes really slow i have only used 6.8 GB of space on it and there is 21.7 GB left on it.

    Periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory. The 4G only has 256 MB of memory.

  • I have lost me ipod touch (4th Gen.) but it is dead, how do I get it back?

    I have lost my ipod touch (4th generation) and FindmyIpod is installed. However, my ipod is dead and so I can get it to play a sound... HELP!!!!

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.

  • I have had my Ipod touch 4th gen for 2+ years and was working fine until I upgraded to ios 6.1.3. Now I cannot play games and most of my apps keep crashing.

    My ipod was working just fine for the past 2 years and ever since upgrading to ios 6.1.3, i simply cannot play games or anymore such as Subway surfers, carrot fantasy, 4 pics 1 word, etc. I also noticed that i had 1.2 GB of free space on ios 5.1.1 but then decreased to 900+ MB after "upgrading" to ios 6.1.3. I then deleted one of my space-hungry apps (the sims freeplay) to clear up some space and now have 1.6 GB of free memory. Just a thought, could apple have purposely done this with their software update to actually make an older, phased-out product such as my ipod touch 4th gen work worse than it has in its  previous versions of softwares to force you to scrap it for a newer product?

  • Ipod touch 4th gen. i cloud question

    if I turn on icloud on my ipod touch 4th gen. , and I take a pic. , will it still stay on my computer if i delete it off my ipod that uploaded it in the first place?

    It depends how you delete it. If you delete it from your PhotoStream it will be deleted everywhere except on the iPod. See:

  • My ipod touch 4th gen stops shuffling at song 12 repeat and shuffle bars are blue - what could be wrong

    my ipod touch 4th gen stops shuffling at song 12, and the music stops all together, does not go to next song - I am playing my ipod on my Bose system  -  the repeat and shuffle bars remain blue - it only occurs on this particular playlist -Note:  I created this playlist on my ipad - the first ipad out - with icloud it is on my ipod as well -  I am totally baffled - and have checked settings, etc - do you think i need to connect to computer to sync?  Please help

    While playing any song on your iPod, tap the artwork to bring up the scrubber bar and additional controls. On the left hand side is a option for repeat. You want to make sure this icon is white (meaning it is set to Off). If it isn't tap it either one or two times to change its current setting.
    Any luck there?

  • IPod Touch 4th Gen. iOS 5.1.1 - Sleep Mode and Other Questions

    Hello,
    I have an iPod Touch 4th generation with iOS 5.1.1
    1) RE: Sleep Mode - I found this on another thread and it's regarding iOS 4.3.1. 
    Is the same still true for iOS 5.1.1? 
    If so, what is recommended for sleep mode - Airplane mode or Wi-Fi off - or is either one ok?
    Wi-Fi is always ON with the 4th generation model running 4.3.1 when it is sleeping unless you either turn off the Wi-Fi or turn Airplane mode ON.
    2)  I only use my iPod Touch on my home Wi-Fi and do not use any cloud based syncing or iTunes Wi-Fi Sync.  I do all my syncing manually from my MacBook Pro via USB to the iPod Touch.  The way I do things is purchase what I need from my MacBook Pro via iTunes and then manually sync it to the iPod Touch.  But there may be times, in the future, where I would want to purchase directly from the iPod Touch.
    I recently updated my AppleID with my new email address via my MacBook Pro.  But, I noticed that on my iPod Touch under "Settings" "Store" that it still shows my old AppleID.  I have all Automatic Downloads set to OFF.  How do I update the iPod Touch to reflect my new AppleID?
    3) When I'm using Safari and I navigate to several websites, how do I easily get back to my home page (which is set to Yahoo!)?
    Probably a dumb question but I can't seem to figure it out.  I've set Yahoo! to my homepage but I would think there should be or is (and can't find it) a button/icon like on my MacBook Pro Safari to take me directly back to the homepage.
    Thanks in advance for the help!

    - Unless you use bluetooth, airplane mode and wifi off are the same as regards to battery drain. I like use airplane mode sinc that is directly under Settings.
    - Go to Settngs>Store and sign out of existing account and sign in with the updated one
    - I have no idea for the Safari question

  • On my iPod touch 4th gen the touchscreen doesn't work when I go to my music.  Why is this and how can I stop it?

    This is driving me crazy!!  I think this may be happening becaues sometimes when I put my iPod into my iHome, the iPod says it is temporarily unavailible becaue it is over heated and has to cool down.  I stopped putting it in my iHome right away but I'm curious if the touch screen is still not going to work on my music!
    EXTRA:
    *After I turn my iPod off and on again, the touchscreen starts back up.
    *This has happened two times.

    Hi,
    Try doing a FULL restore of your device and then put everything back on it. Tell me if this works.

  • When playing a song on ipod touch 4th gen, the display doesn't show the time lenghth of song or the shuffle, repeat options.  Any thoughts??

    When I used to play music, the song display showed the album art, the length of the song and how much time was left, it also had a repeat and shuffle option at the bottom of the screen  A couple of days ago, these things disappeared.  Any thoughts??

    when the song is playing/on the music player tap the album cover or the middle of the screen and these things should pop up for you. If that doesn't work then i dont know.

  • How can I get apple to warranty my iPod touch 4th gen? It has always had issues and seems to be a lost cause. Will not connect to wi-fi. It also has cracked screen, but that is not the issue.

    It has a cracked screen also but that is not the issue. I am willing to live with the screen

    Unfortunately, ANY signs of 'neglect or damage' automatically become the cause of any issues you're having. As in it doesn't matter if your screen was flickering before it was dropped, when they see the dent or cracked screen, that screen flicker was caused by the drop. Because they  have no way to know if you are telling the truth (it's nothing personal, they just literally dont' know) so any signs of damage become the reason for your issue. The only way out of that is if you had taken in your iPad and, even if you didn't get it replaced, an apple employee can have documented that yes, that issue existed before the drop.
    It's not fun, I know, but that's just how it is. Any signs of 'neglect or damage' and that 'neglect or damage' is the cause of your issues.
