Hi,
First, close all the apps who are running in the same time.
You can desactivate few "notification" who drain the battery so.
You can put off the auto configure of the hour.
You can turn off bluetooth or wifi or both when no using.
I suggest you to disable the automatic sync with mail accounts and see if the problem goes away. Put in in manually.
when you go away from the mail app, it is still trying to finish to sync even in sleep/lock mode and the battery is dead within hours. Also, you can close the mail app.
In few weeks, an update will arrive with corrections.
Have a nice day.

If you are referring to Activation Lock, the password for the Apple ID signed into the device is required, there is no way around this. If you do not have the information and cannot contact the previous owner, the device is useless.

If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for a previous owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. You must contact the previous owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the previous owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.

I have two ipods and they are somehow connected so they are getting same texts and items downloaded

i have two children who both have an ipod. some how they are connected. when one downloads a game the other one gets it and now my son is getting my daughters texts. how can i fix?

By "game center account", do you mean Apple ID?
If so, you can change it.
1. Tap settings and navigate to iTunes and App Stores
2. Tap "Apple ID" and then tap "Sign Out"
3. Log in with a different ID.

Have you reset the password recently for the email account?
A real simple fix usually is to delete the mail account (settings < mail contacts calendars, tap the affected account and choose delete at the bottom) Then re add the account.

We have 6 ipods and 1 iphone in our house. We have different itunes accounts. We use one computer. How can we share each others music? I moved everybodies itunes media folder to the public folder but when I open itunes I only see that accounts music.

We share 1 computer but we have different user accounts on the computer.

Adding media directly to the media folder does not make it appear in the library. iTunes doesn't really 'look' at that folder except to go to specific files when you call upon them from a library. You have to drag new content to each user's library, that is assuming each user has their own library.

I have an ipod and and ipad. I don't need as many apps on my ipod touch as I have on my ipad. How do I set it up to only sync some things on one and some on the other?

How you sync one device will not affect the other. See here for different ways to manage them all.
