I have a new iPod touch and cannot get my apple id verified for imessage or facetime - any help?
I have an Apple ID and it works but I cannot use iMessage or Facetime. I enter my apple id and password and it hangs up at the verify stage. I have received the email which apple sends and it states that my apple id is verified. Any help with this?
I had this same problem. I tried turning iPhone on & off, exiting Settings, etc. Nothing worked. I realized that the E-mail address associated with my Apple ID was not connected to the iPhone via POP or IMAP. I believe that if you want to use the iMessage feature, you have to have a live connection between that E-mail server and your iPhone. After I set up the POP link to send/receive E-mails from that account, iMessage worked. Also, during my attempts to get iMessage to work, I updated my phone to the latest iOS, and when the phone rebooted, my cell number was listed and checked in the iMessage setup, where it was not visible anytime beofre that upgrade. Hope this will help someone.

I have a new iPod Touch and one apple ID. I want to use My laptop aswell as my desktop computer for the one ipod, using the same apple ID. I have music on both computers and want to merge the two without losing any music or apps. How do I do this?
My iPod has music and apps from my apple ID that I downloaded to my iPod via iCloud and some apps that I got free from the store, straight onto my iPod, but my laptop has some music on it aswell, separate from my other library. I want to put the music from my laptop into my iTunes library which I want to use on both computers. Is it possible to do this?
Thanks.- You can only sync an iPod to one iTunes library/computer. You can however, manually manage music and videos among different libraries.
Go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.
- If y wnat to switch syncing libraries/computer see:
go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.

Hi...i have a new iPod touch and although through settings it shows that I am connected to the wifi when i try to download apps it says I must turn on the wifi? Any thoughts?
Does the iPod connect to other networks?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iPod connect before?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

I have a new iPod Touch and am trying to download photos for the first time. Both iPhoto & Image Capture recognize the device but don't seem to recognize the photos, or at least I can't import them. Nothing happens when I click on anything in either.
If you manually open iPhoto do you not see the photos?
Maybe here:
iOS: Unable to import photos or device not recognized as a camera
Yu are trying to impoort photos taken by or saved to the iPod, right? If the photos were synced to the iPod then iPhot does not work. -
I have a new ipod touch and it says choose to set up as a new ipod touch or restore from a backup. If I choose restore from a backup will my old ipod continue to maintain the ability to be synced on my same account?
Yes. It will not effect your other iPod.
However. change the name of the newer iPod if necessary to avoid confusion if the second one is named the same as the first

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

I have an iPhone 5 unlocked but cannot get a payg nano sim for Vodafone uk. Any suggestions ?
If Vodafone does not provide a nano-SIM card, there are no suggestions. Not only is the nano-SIM card smaller, it is also thinner, so cutting a micro-SIM card down to size wouldn't be enough to fit.

I have an older iPod Touch, I bought a new one and the Itunes on my computer is too old to recognize my new iPod Touch and Itunes cannot be updated. Is there a creditable software program I can use to get all my old music from my old iPod Touch to the new one? It is my understanding that the music cannot be saved onto my new iTunes, b/c I did not have iCloud. I have over 2,000 songs I just cannot part with. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help some how!! THANKS!
I had the same problem with my iPad, i couldn't get the newer version of itunes because the computer was too old and my iPad couldnt sync with the old itunes. I got a PC from school a few months later so that solved the problem for me. Unfortunately i don't think there would be a program to put your music on your iPod, iTunes should be the only way to transfer files to Apple devices. What operating system are you running and what version of it is it?

I have a new iPod Touch. I also run Windows 7 on my desktop PC. I have tried to post pictures from my PC to the iPod. But the only way you can do this that I know of, is to create a subdirectory on the PC and put all of your pictures that you want on the iPod in that subdirectory. Then you must use iTunes to synchronize the PC subdirectory with photos on the iPod. But I want many subdirectories to organize my pictures on the iPod. Can you do this??, it doesn't look to me like you can!??
Thanks TomYes.

how can i restore my apps to my ipod touch?.. I lost all of them when went to ios5 and cannot get them back onto the ipod.
Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you are saying you can't turn off find my phone because it is still using an old ID, you need to change your ID back to the old address at My Apple ID turn off find my phone then change your ID back at my Apple ID.
