I have an iPod 4th Gen and iPhone 3GS, can I connect the two so I can get on the internet with my iPod?

I have an IPod 4th Gen and iPhone 3 GS, is there a way I can connect the two so I can connect my iPod to the internet when away from home? What I want to do is use some of the apps on the iPod that won't work on my iPhone which require an internet connection.

Yes if you purchase the tethering data plan for your iPhone. See:
iPhone: System requirements for Personal Hotspot

Shouldn't iOS 7 release on the iPod touch 4th gen and iPhone 3GS because of an iOS bug involving faulty/generic chargers?

Someone should tell Apple about this because the bug is still in iOS 6 but reportedly is fixed in iOS 7 beta 4 or 5

Why don't you?

Hi Gammer576775!
Here is an article that will help you troubleshoot this issue with your iPod touch:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2771
Will not power on, or will not turn on unless connected to power
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Connect the iPod touch to an Apple USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 15 minutes, if the display turns on and…
The home screen appears, the device should be working. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen: . Then disconnect the device from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears even after the iPod touch has charged for at least 20 minutes: See the "iPod touch displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or low-battery image appears , continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPod touch did not turn on, reset it while connected to an Apple USB power adapter. If the display turns on, go to step 4.If the display remains black, go to the next step.
Restore the device. Connect it to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes it and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPod touch. If the device doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring it, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPod touch resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring it did not solve the issue, seek service.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!

IPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS won't connect wirelessly at home when PCs are off.

Dear Apple.com,
I have been using iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS wirelessly at home no problems.
I use a MAC filter on an unsecured wireless network. Only entered MAC addresses can connect wirelessly.
However, when I turn off all the PCs at home the iPhone find the wireless network and show connected, but cannot browse websites.
The router Linksys WRT610N is always on, so the wireless connection and permission for the iPhone MAC addresses to access the wireless connection should work?
Any ideas?

Is your router a model that supports a/b/g/n? If you turn off N will it work? If your N is setup at 40MHz slots it may not work as well. Can you take your wireless router somewhere else for testing? I assume you might have some issue where you are at with your Mac and that router. When you open Apple Menu/About this Mac/More Info../Network/Airport does it show your network there? From a working machine can you see your Mac from your router web interface? FYI if your router was an Apple product(Airport Express or Airport Extreme/Time Capsule) you could see all your wireless clients via the Airport Utility, even signal strength and connection speed...

I do backup with iCloud. I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud.
I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever. Is that right?
In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

My ipod touch displays a loading symbol and then goes to the apple logo and then repeats the process. I cant turn it on or off and has been this way for the past 24 hours. I have an 8GB 4th Gen and have over 7,000 pictures, but cant delete. help

My ipod has over 7,000 pictures and there are 5,00 i could easily delete but it wont let me do anything! it just has a loading symbol that converts into an apple logo and then back again. Ive tried pressing down the home and sleep/wake button down at the same time for 10 seconds. The apple logo does appear, but it goes back to the loading symbol or a white screen. Its been like this for 24 hours and is unresponsive. Please help.

- Connect the iPod to the computer and see if iTunes sees it. If it sees it try to get the photos off the iPod.
- Next let the battery fully drain. It will likely take days. After charging for at least an hour try again
- Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Mifi 4510 and not being able to use the internet with my Ipod touch

My mifi 4510 will not allow my iPod Touch to connect to the internet. In settings it sees my device and for about 2 seconds a dot will appear of the screen of the mifi4510. The dot goes away and it keeps searching endlessly to connect to my iPod Touch. I have talked to the first level of tech support and they tell me that the iPhone and iPad are compatible with the 4510, but not the iTouch. I can take my iTouch to any other wireless network, enter the key and the network will connect flawlessly to my device. First level of tech support also asked if I had the latest updates to my iPod Touch The answer is yes. If in fact Verizon is blocking the iPod Touch from going out onto the internet, can anyone give me the rationale as to why this would be true.

Hello,
I am not aware of any limitations on the MiFi that would back up Verizon's story. If the device is Wi-Fi compatible then it should be able to connect to the MiFi 4510L. The only reason why a device might not be able to connect would be due to wireless passwords not matching or the MiFi broadcasting in a mode which is incompatible with that device.
Here are some quick suggestions which may help:
Change the 802.11/Wireless Mode
1. Navigate to http://mifi.admin
2. Enter "admin" in the textbox in the upper right hand corner
3. Click the Wi-Fi tab
4. Change the 802.11 mode from B+G+N to B+G
5. Click Apply
6. Test your connection
Remove the Wireless password
1. Navigate to http://mifi.admin
2. Enter "admin" in the textbox in the upper right hand corner
3. Click the WiFi tab
4. Change your Selected Profile to Open Access
5. Click Apply
6. Test your connection

I have 45:59 mins lecture and one picture, can't export to QT with one file

I have a lecture of a duration of 45:59 mins. and one slide (picture). I have created a slide show in Keynote (v. 5) and wanted to export to QT for YouTube uploading. I end up having two files! and when I upload to YouTube, it fails for not being the right kind of file, while it (they) is .mov!!! Any suggestions?
thanks,
WindsorPro

Hello Gary:
I was hoping you would answer, I wanted to reply to your earlier comment on how to create something similar to mine. You said, "Start a new presentation to remove the previous sound recording, Keynote is holding onto the other sound files. Add the graphic items to each slide and one sound file to each slide for the voice over 1 - In Inspector > Transitions; use start transitions automatically and set each transitions delay to the duration of the individual sound file. 2 - In QT export, set Fixed Timing and delete the value in the duration box, QT will then use the custom timings for each individual slide. This procedure does work exactly as needed, Iv used this for nearly 6 years using 4 different versions of Keynote."
I tried the above and didn't work, because there are two duration boxes and Keynote won't let me delete the value!
Also, I tried your new suggestion, send to > YouTube, and still, failed. I think because Keynote is creating two files, both with .mov suffixes. But the one that has the slide on it (when it is not activated) is empty! with 00:00 duration (when I press cmd-i) and the other has a movie strip logo, and it is the audio file, however, without the slide! And YouTube rejects them as not being one of its acceptable formats! (Even though both have .mov at the end).
Finally, I bumped into a YouTube presentation, and found out how easy it was, you wouldn't believe it!!!
Just drag the sound file onto the one slide in Keynote ( I have just one picture in this project ) and then export to QuickTime! It's real-time conversion, so, it took 45:59 mins. to finish it, of course I went to bed and in the morning it was done. Once it was done, I uploaded it to YouTube by just dragging the file onto the designated area. It took another 81 mins.!

IPod touch 5th gen. and iPhone 4 will not connect to home Wifi. No issues anywhere else, just at home. iPhone 6 had the same problem, but was able to correct with network reset. Tried absolutley everything the boards say and nothing works. Help.

Brand new iPod 5 and periodically will pick up our home Wifi, but when it loses it, it's impossible to reset. Says "incorrect password" and it is the correct password. No issue at all with Android devices or anything else on Wifi. Only the iPod and an iPhone 4. My iPhone 6 had the same issue, but I was able to correct it by resetting the network. This "fix" doesn't work on the iPod or old iPhone. Just keeps saying "incorrect password" no matter what you do. Connection has been reset, passwords have been changed... Nothing fixes it. And both are operating on the latest iOS update. I just updated it. Still doesn't work. How crazy.

Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tends to indicate a problem with your network. Yes
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before? no
Try the following to rule out a software problem: (Not clear what you did)
- 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 your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- 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.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem. Since it connects to other networks that indicates a problem with your network

HT1338 i have reset all seting from my iphone , how can get back software ?

hi \
please help me ,
i have restart my iphone with all setting and app, and now no any app, , ( activation request could not be completed , if the problem ,,,,,,, ) like this message have in screen ..
how can i get back ?

Well first, you have to activate it. If it can't be activated there's something wrong, not with the software but with your billing or the software version (hopefully you're running iOS 6.1.x).
Once you've done that, if you have an iCloud or iTunes backup, you can restore from that. If you don't have a backup, then you've lost all your settings and data, but you can painstakingly re-download all your apps from iTunes.

When i try to go to the itunes store, itunes will close down. I have Windows 7 64 bit and I use chrome to access the internet.

I recently upgraded to windows 7 but had this problem in Windows XP as well. If I try to go to iTunes from Chrome it seems to break my connection with iTunes and I can't get to the store anymore. When I try to launch the iTunes store, my iTunes application closes down. No error, it just shuts down.

I think that being signed into your apple.com account but with Safari first and foremost would be better as that would allow an Apple cookie to be set down onto an integral proprietary application (yes the Safari browser - go figure). Then (that is secondarily) you should sign into iTunes and have (more reliable) fun.
Google's motto was "Do No Evil" was it not? So do you honestly believe that their primary business interests and application performance jives with that of Apple? Sometimes yes, other times...no. Sorry, just sayin.

I have an iPod 4th Gen and iPhone 3GS, can I connect the two so I can get on the internet with my iPod?
