I  have two sons with ipod touch 4th gen. One has access to our wifi, the other does not. Any ideas????

Try manually entering/searching for your wifi access point under the "Other" option. Also, if you have lots of devices connected to your wifi, you may have reached your limit. (e.g. the airport express has a max of 10 while the basestation may have 50. Check your packiging on whatever router you have, may help.)

    What happens when you try to change them?
    Try:
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.

  • 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

  • Hello, I have an iPod touch 5th gen and it continuously loses its wifi connection and also it doesn't show the usage status in the settings. It's got the 6.1.2. Software. Any idea as to what could be the problem?

    I've recently updated the iPod and also restored it. But the problem with the wifi connectivity still prevails. There is also a problem with the battery. After having charged it completely, the usage still doesn't appear in the settings. Any opinions as to what could be the probable problem?

    In settings>general>usage it shows --
    And yes, it shows the same problem when connected to other networks.

  • IPod Touch 4th Gen (iOS ver 6.1.3) wifi cuts in and out. No other devices affected.

    It was fine up until a few days ago when I noticed the wifi turning off while asleep (I was missing many notifications). Yesterday I noticed the wifi coming and going under normal use (in the middle of messages, checking weather, looking on Facebook, etc).
    I've done the following to no avail:
    Turned device off and on.
    Turned wifi off and on.
    Renewed lease.
    Forget network and rejoin.
    Turn wifi off and on.
    Reset network settings.
    Nothing is helping and it's frustrating trying to keep in touch with my family (via Facetime and iMessage) when the wifi doesn't stay on long enough to send a short message. My home button doesn't work, so I haven't been able to try and restart that way (holding home and power button simultaniously).
    Also, my iPod is the only device in my home that is affected. My laptop, 3DS, and Wii, as well as my roommate's laptop, iPhone, iPad Mini, and PS3 are unaffected. These devices are all usually used at the same time and we've never had an issue before (even when friends bring over their devices).
    Any help would be appreciated, as for this thing is the main way I keep in touch with my family (they all live out of town).

    Did you power off and then back on the router?
    Have you tried different locations since maybe interference is causing the problem.
    Does it happen when connected to other networks?
    - Reset all settings

  • IPod Touch 4th Gen vs. Original iPad and WiFi

    Can anyone explain this to me?
    I have an original iPad, it's old, well abused, but works well, stuck at iOS5, and a new iPod Touch 4thGen, not abused, iOS6 and works "ok".  Here's my issue,
    using the same WiFi router that I do for ALL of my equipment, there is one spot in which my iPad will get WiFi just fine, but my iPod Touch will not get WiFi at all. Same exact position for both units, not touching either device, so there's no "hand position" issues.
    I think it's an iOS driver issue, others seem to disagree. Other devices that work in the same exact spot: Droid tablet, Samsung Galaxy IIs, Windows XP/7 laptops/netbooks, and a Kindle Fire.  Seems to me, it's unique to the iPod Touch and it's annoying me enough that it is quite possible the Touch will be my last Apple purchase.

    there is one spot in which my iPad will get WiFi just fine, but my iPod Touch will not get WiFi at all.
    WiFi antennas are not created equal.  The iPod Touch has a different configuration than the iPad which will also affect the antenna.  The same goes for other WiFi devices, each will have its own unique antenna behaviors.
    Have you checked that "Spot" to make sure you have a strong signal?  Building construction and placement of metal appliances can affect signal strength.
    Have you checked that "Spot" to make sure you do not have WiFi interference from WiFi routers at your neighbors, from 2.4GHz cordless phones, 2.4GHz baby monitors, Microwave ovens (also operate on 2.4GHz frequences).

  • Solved - Ipod Touch 4th Gen & WRT56GL Internet Access

    Initial problem was Ipod Touch would connect to wireless network, but would not acquire the same IP as the DHCP router assigned which resulted in no Internet Access.
    The fix turned out to be the Ipod Touch did not like the "Use DNSMasq for DHCP" option in the DD-WRT v24-sp2 router firmware. I un-ticked (disabled this option) and now the internet works great.

    Hi Gilbert!
    I am new at this Ipod Touch 4 thing and didnt realize that it doesnt come with internet access everywhere we go. I know...I know... Anywho, do you have any tricks that I can use to use wifi everywhere we go? I would like to use it for mapping and texting and hopefully making a call?.....
    Please let me know asap. I REALLY appreciate any information you can give me.
    Thanks!! Jodie : )

  • Ipod touch 4th gen screen has gone blank?

    my 4th gen screen went blank(white) recently and i think the way to fix it is to do the reset thing, but my power/lock button is stuck. it still makes sounds and everything but i cant do anything on the screen or use the lock button. anyone have a fix?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    Where it says place the iPod in recovery mode use one of these programs
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                 
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Sometimes my iPod shuffle (4th gen) won't turn on. Though the battery is fully charged. I usually connect my iPod to the mac so it will turn on. Why is that?

    If i not use my ipod for a times, it will turn off automatically and won't turn on. Please give the answer. My ipod is new.

    - Connect the iPod to your computer and try to make a backup
    iOS: How to back up and restore your content
    - Next 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.
    and try making a backup again. If you can't then there is no way of getting the info off the iPod unless data recovery company can do it. Not cheap.
    - If photos are in an existing iPod backup (iTune>Preferences>Devices  for iTunes backup or an iCloud backu) then restore from that backup. See the restore topic of:
    iOS: How to back up
    - If you used PhotoStream then try getting them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:

    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 your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
