I am setting up my ipod touch and it won't allow me to add a phone number to the list of phone numbers for some reason, and I need to be able to get my messages. What do I do?

I can't get the number for imessage to add another number, and I need to be able to get my messages. I also can't change anything for facetime. What do I do to add a number?

An iPod (and iPad) ony have a phone number for Messages (and FaceTime) if there is an iPhone with Messages/Facetime using the same ID for Messages and facetime.
iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage
If you can't change the Settings that means that the Restrictions that prevent changing accounts is set. Settings>General>Restrictions

I downloaded iTunes 11.4 so I could set up an iPod Touch, and now it won't open at all. Can someone please tell me how to fix it?

As mentioned - I was trying to set up an iPod Touch, and it kept telling me "open iTunes," so it dawned on me that I probably needed to update it. So I updated it, and now it just doesn't open (it bounces once, and that's it).
For added info:
I have a MacBook Pro with Mac OS X version 10.6.8.
Technically I keep all my music on an external hard drive, but I don't think anything is corrupted (because it was working fine just before I updated it).
Thank you.

Hi, JEvansIII.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Try resetting your System Management Controller or SMC then launch iTunes after processing these steps. If the issue persists, try downloading a fresh copy of iTunes by accessing the second link below.

I accidentally changed a setting on my ipod touch and now it won't change back. I have had my ipod for more than two years and i dont know what to do. If i go to the apple store, would they fix it, or would i need to get a new one?

If it is still under warranty you can call the 800 number to apple and enter the serial number and it will tell you if it is under warranty or not if not its like $30 basically for them to help or something like that it said today when i called...
Or take it to a genius bar if you have one near?
Or further explain what setting you are needing fixed back and im sure someone here can help you for free!

Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.

I have an IPOD Touch and I need to know if there is a way to get the songs stored on the touch into my computer in I-Tunes.

You should really read the manual.
"How do you restore from backup? "
Restore. When given the choice, choose to use backup.
"And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
They would only be where you put them. What program did you use to import them? Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all. You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

I downloaded a movie last night from iTunes and it downloaded to my laptop and my phone but for some reason it now won't play on my laptop. The album artwork on my laptop has gone and it exists perfectly on my phone. What do I do?

Help!
I downloaded a movie last night from iTunes and it downloaded to my laptop and my phone but for some reason it now won't play on my laptop. The album artwork on my laptop has gone and it exists perfectly on my phone. What do I do?
I paid for it so I'd really like to avoid paying again just to see this movie. Is it because it's on my iPhone? Whenever I try to click on the movie to make it play it just does nothing like it's not there. The file for the movie exists within my iTunes library files but I can't seem to click and drag it into iTunes or open it with iTunes. Need help.

Seriously, I doubt that your answer helped Erik. He has two issues.
He installed the new program and has a double icon folders with software. One for the new & one for the old. (I have this same problem.)
He must have attempted to open one of the products and no longer see his personal settings transferred over. (The install will ask to have those settings migrating, but you have to accept it. eh, I could be wrong; but, that what i remembered doing.
I concur with his first.
However, i can not get any of my products to work. Ie. have to constantly click on icon to open; once open i get a unexpected error and have to close. I'm on a mac pro w/ latest os system.
In addition, I have tried to uninstall the older by clicking on the application's manager icon.; Unfortunately, it shuts down at each attempt. Therefore, I am unable to un-install the old product or the new.
Possibly, we were hoping that the new product would be simply updated if an old recent was already installed.
Instead, the installation simply created a new icon and the new folder with product.

I keep getting calls, so I added that number to my list of calls to block. It doesn't ring anymore, but I keep getting notification messages that say "Call back". Why do I receive this when the call should be blocked?

Okay, you are correct the call is not supposed to ring in. Have you done any troubleshooting on the phone? First off, try power cycling the phone. Turn the phone off, then back on again. If that does not work, then try a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. See if that changes things. Is the caller using the exact number that you blocked, or is it possible they are using another number, or have restricted the Caller ID?

HT4839 PLEASE HELP!!! I am simply trying to update the APN settings on my Iphone3 AT&T carried Straight Talk SIM phone. For some reason, when I enter the Straight Talk APN info in the Config Utility and click "Install", NOTHING HAPPENS. WHY?

PLEASE HELP!!! I am simply trying to update the APN settings on my Iphone3 AT&T carried Straight Talk SIM phone. For some reason, when I enter the Straight Talk APN info in the Config Utility and click "Install", NOTHING HAPPENS. WHY? I have spent almost 2 full days simply trying to get the cellular data network settings to appear and I am now at the point of pulling hair and/or smashing things. Why is it so difficult to simply update the cellular data network APN settings on a standard Iphone 3 ATT with a unlimited Straight Talk plan? Everyone knows that Straight Talk's $45 a month unlimited data/calling plan is supposed to be 100% compatible with AT&T carried Iphones. Will someone please tell me HOW TO UPDATE THE APN SETTINGS ON THIS IPHONE 3. Thanks and God bless

StraightTalk is not a supported carrier.
Contact them for support.
FYI, unless the device is officially unlocked from AT&T, you will not be able to use it on another carrier.

This problem is often caused by "Google Drive." If it's installed, I suggest you first check for an update. If that doesn't solve the problem, remove it according to the developer's instructions. You may need to boot in safe mode to do so. Back up all data before making any changes.
If you use Google Drive and don't want to remove it, then try deselecting the option in its preferences to "show status icons." According to reports, that may be enough to stop the Finder from crashing.
