HT204387 Why can I not detect my iPod touch on my ipad Bluetooth search

I am trying to search my Bluetooth iPod touch gen 5 on my ipad3 I cannot find it. Please help.

Bluetooth on iOS devices is used to connect certain keyboards, speakers and headphones. It is not set up to connect two iOS devices together except for a few limited thing like photo beaming in iPhoto for iOS.

  • Why can I not restore my iPod touch?

    I updated my iPod and now it won't turn on and it says to connect it to iTunes. I connected it to iTunes and it says that I must restore it because the iPod is in recovery mode. When I try to restore it, I get a message that says "iPod cannot be restored at this time because the iPod software update server could not be contacted or is temporarily unavailable" I've tried all of the troubleshooting options like updating iTunes and windows but nothing works.

    Update Server
    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem

    Why can't I update my ipod touch to the iOS 4.3?
    I try to update my ipod touch 4th gen. to the new iOS 4.3 software and the thing loads and after the 7-8 minutes or so, when it says "processing file" a pop up says that the network connection has timed out, and to check my network settings.

    Hi,
    Have you tried to see if you have the newest version of iTunes? Also, it may help if you try the following steps.
    Download iOS from a third-party website (i reccomend http://whited00r.com/) (as this is a full operating system, it is a big download and may take time on a slow internet connection)
    Unzip the file.
    After unzipping, you should now have a .ipsw file.
    Open iTunes
    Connect your device and make sure you take a back-up of it first (if you don't all your data will be erased)
    Now, while pressing the Restore button, hold down the Alt key (for Mac) or the Shift key (for Windows).
    You should now have a window open asking you to choose a file.
    Choose the file you just downloaded from whited00r.com
    Press OK
    It should start replacing your current OS to the new one.
    When this finishes, your device will restart
    Click restore from (whatever your old device was called)
    It will put back all your apps and information

  • HT4356 Why can I not print attachments from gmail on my ipad mini, it will print photos and anything from safari

    Why can I not print attachments from gmail on my ipad mini, it will print photos or anything from safari?

    For Gmail attachments, if they are PDF files (as well as many other formats) when you are viewing them on the iPad in Safari there is an option to "Open in iBooks" just below the tab you have open (at the top of the page).
    From iBooks you can print them to a wireless printer easily.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why ITunes do not recognize my iPod Touch

    Hi everybody!
    I have an IPod Touch and for some weeks, I have big problems with ITunes I can not solve.  Let me explain:
    Initially, it worked fine.  Then one day, decided that ITunes does not recognize my IPod Touch, more precisely it do not read more.
    When I plug my IPod Touch, ITunes tries to read it and then a message appears saying: «ITunes can not read the contents of the IPod xxxx».  Then they told me to restore my IPod to restore the original settings, I tried but it did not work either because after a while a message appears telling me that my internet connection failed while yet it works!!?!!
    Then I tried to solve the problem in the tab «Help» ITunes under «establish a diagnosis» and then the test tells me that there is no IPod detected while my IPod is plugged and recognized in Windows Vista.  It tells me: «ITunes could not connect to the IPod xxxx because the record is missing the match.» What does that mean??
    I also tried everything in the Apple support and nothing worked.  My IPod ans ITunes are up to date.  I even uninstalled ITunes and any Apple product for the reinstalled everything but it still does not work.
    Does anyone can help me??
    I confess that I am discouraged and frustrated.
    Thank you in advance!

    Bonjour tout le monde!
    J'ai un IPod Touch et depuis quelques semaines, j'ai de gros problèmes avec ITunes que je n'arrive pas à résoudre.  Je vous explique:
    Au départ, tout fonctionnait bien.  Puis un jour, ITunes a décidé qu'il ne reconnait plus mon IPod Touch, plus précisémment il ne le lie plus.  Lorsque je branche mon IPod Touch, ITunes essaie de le lire puis un message s'affiche me disant: «ITunes ne peut pas lire le contenu de l'IPod xxxx».  Puis on me dit de restaurer mon IPod afin de rétablir les  paramètres d'origine, ce que j'ai essayé mais ça ne fonctionne pas non plus car après un temps un message s'affiche me disant que ma connexion internet a échoué alors que pourtant elle fonctionne!!?!!
    Puis, j'ai essayé de résoudre le problème dans l'onglet «aide» d'ITunes sous établir un diagnostique et là, le test me dit qu'il n'y a aucun IPod détecté alors que mon IPod est bien branché et reconnu dans Windows Vista.  On me dit aussi: « ITunes n'a pu se connecter à l'IPod xxxx car l'enregistrement du jumelage est manquant».  Qu'est-ce que ça veut dire??
    J'ai aussi tout essayer dans le support d'Apple et rien n'a fonctionné.  Mon IPod et ITunes sont à jour.  J'ai même désinstallé ITunes et tout les produit Apple pour tout réinstallé mais ça ne fonctionne toujours pas. :-(
    Est-ce que quelqu'un peut m'aider??!! 
    J'avoue que je suis découragée et frustrée.
    Merci d'avance!

  • I have a Macbook with Tiger 10.4.1 and I am thinking of buying an Ipad .  Can I plug in my Ipod touch to my Ipad to transfer my music as I understand Tiger will not sync with Ipad

    I have also been told about Itunes Match but again I dont think this will work with Tiger

    You can't connect an iPod to an iPad to transfer content between the two - the most that you might be able to do is to copy photos from an iPod Touch to the iPad via the camera connection kit, but you can't tramsfer music. The minimum specs for syncing from a Mac is OS X 10.5.8
    The minimum requirements for iTunes Match for a Mac are (from here) :
    Mac OS X v10.6.8 or later
    Windows Vista or later
    iTunes 10.5.1 or later
    iOS 5 or later on iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S iPod touch (3rd and 4th generation), iPad, or iPad 2

  • Itunes 10.5 does not detect my ipod touch

    I recently update my itunes to 10.5 and when I connect my Ipod touch to my computer Ituens will not detected. My Ipod will show up on my computer but not on Itunes. Any ideas how can I fix this???
    I try restaring my Ipod, REinstalling Itunes but nothing work.. HELP PLEASE!!!!

    - Try moving the existing backup file to a safe location so iTunes has to create an entire new file.  It is located here:
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7), or iTunes may not be installed in the default location. Show hidden files and then search the hard drive for the Backup directory.
    - Directly download and install the iOS 5 using the information here:

  • Why can't I download Free iPod Touch Apps from Apps Store w/Shopping Cart?

    I have an 8GB iPod Touch (original model) with the current 2.1 software. I also have iTunes v. 8.0. The behavior I am seeing started about 3 weeks ago and continues with these updates - it was not like this when I first downloaded the 2.0 software and began installing Apps.
    I prefer to manage my iPod Touch applications in iTunes. I have my iTunes account set up for a Shopping Cart, not 1-Click Buy. This is because for Music, I prefer to add songs I will want to my shopping cart, then buy them when I want to.
    When iTunes 7.7 first came out with v2.0 software, even though I have a Shopping Cart for my iTunes, I could "buy" a Free App just by clicking on it, and it would be automatically downloaded and added to my Applications folder on iTunes. Then, when I synced with my iPod Touch, it would install the app on my iPod Touch. This was true for either new Apps or upgrades to existing Apps.
    For the last few weeks, every time I try to update even an existing App for my iPod Touch, if I do it through the iTunes store, I get the following message:
    "Applications cannot be purchased with Shopping Cart.
    Your preferences are currently set to buy using Shopping Cart. Application purchases cannot be placed in Shopping Cart: they must be purchase by 1-Click. Select Buy if you'd like to purchase [NAME OF APPLICATION} by using 1-Click and your credit card will be charged immediately."
    The [NAME OF APPLICATION] is filled in with whatever application I am dealing with at that time.
    Why is it that even with a Free application, and an update for it at that, it will not let me obtain it with iTunes if I have a Shopping Cart? So far, I have solved the problem by doing all of my Applications management on my iPod Touch. I use the iTunes Store on my iPod Touch to search for and download the application. Then, when I sync, it places it in my Applications folder on iTunes on my PC.
    This is very strange behavior for iTunes. Why would it want to charge my credit card for a Free Application?
    Many thanks.
    Joe

    Hi Steve,
    Thanks for your reply. I do have a valid Credit Card on the account. In addition, I also have about a $5 credit from an iTunes gift card in my iTunes account.
    In any event, I'm actually NOT purchasing anything. All I'm trying to do is download a FREE App for my iPod Touch. It simply won't let me do it.
    This is extremely frustrating.
    Best regards.
    Joe

  • Why can't I see my iPod Touch in iTunes

    I've carefully followed the trouble shooting guide, re-installed iTunes, restarted the computer and yet the iPod is not being recognized by iTunes, hence I could not add apps and sync them to my iTouch 4th Gen. What else should I do?

    No, they use different cables. I have the iPhone 5 which uses the lightning cable and the iPod Touch 4th Gen which uses the 30 pin connector. But I don't think the cable might be the issue since the iPod charges when I insert the cable through the USB port.
    I've carefully followed the instructions on the "additional information" page but could not find this
    Locate the file "com.apple.usbmuxd.plist~orig and drag it to the trash. Still I went through the process till the end, restarted the MBP and re-installed iTunes but the device can't still be recognized by iTunes.
    I've tried resetting/restoring the device, but got stuck on that part where an arrow and the cable with the word iTunes was displayed on the iPods screen because I could not go any further since it still did not appear in iTunes. Therefore there was no way for me to click the restore button to reset the device.
    The only other option for me is to try it on another computer, maybe try it on my office desktop. I hope it somehow resolves the problem. I will make an update of my progress when it happens.
