- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
iCloud: Find My iPhone
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
- If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

Hi guys. I lost my iPod touch 4th gen. I'm wondering if there is a way to find it using its serial number or other methods if any. I can't use the Find My iPhone app because it was stolen and sure that it is not connected to the internet. I think that he will most probably erase the contents. I know that this seems too impossible but I have to try. That iPod was dear to me and was given by a special someone.
Sorry.
No other way to track it. -

Can I use my iPod touch 4th gen to text iPhone users?
I am using iPod touch 4th gen and I want to know how can I text my friends that are using iPhones. I mean, how do I add them in my contacts (will I need to put their phone number and where?) and how can I message them? Thanks!
Since you have iOS 6.1.2, you should have iMessage, make sure your AppleID is entered in the Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Apple ID: field.
Check the Contacts to see the friends are entered, and in their iPhone number field, indicate that those are iPhones, one of the choices you can make for the type of mobile phone. -
My ipod was working just fine for the past 2 years and ever since upgrading to ios 6.1.3, i simply cannot play games or anymore such as Subway surfers, carrot fantasy, 4 pics 1 word, etc. I also noticed that i had 1.2 GB of free space on ios 5.1.1 but then decreased to 900+ MB after "upgrading" to ios 6.1.3. I then deleted one of my space-hungry apps (the sims freeplay) to clear up some space and now have 1.6 GB of free memory. Just a thought, could apple have purposely done this with their software update to actually make an older, phased-out product such as my ipod touch 4th gen work worse than it has in its previous versions of softwares to force you to scrap it for a newer product?
- Double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod.

We have an iPod touch 4th generation (4 months old) that is charging on our PC but is not recognized by iTunes. It is also charging on the docking station of our stereo but is not recognized by the stereo (will not play music). Other devices (2 other iPod touches and an iPhone) are recognized by both the PC and the stereo. What could be wrong with this particular iPod touch??
What are the model iPods and iPhone and iOSs that work?

In order to upgrade my computer from Windows xp to Windows 7, I lost access to firefox without thinking to generate a recovery key. Is there any way to get my data back?
If the only thing you have paired to the account is an iPhone the answer is that unfortunately no. The iPhone client (Firefox Home) is just a "consumer" of the Sync data and can't do much.
My best advice is to keep the iPhone synced to have access to bookmarks and manually transfer them to your new profile.

IPod touch 4th Gen is recognized as digital camera, not in iTunes
I'm using a Windows XP computer with the newest version of iTunes and my iPod touch 4 won't pop up in iTunes, it's a digital camera according to my pc. I have tried really EVERYTHING: update iTunes, downgrade iTunes, reinstall iTunes and all other apple software 7 times, USB drivers, firmware, DFU-mode, every single apple support I could find I tried! And now I'm tired of it, my rage upon this issue isn't describable anymore...
Please help me instead of referring to another topicFound the sollution, but it is very hard to do though:
"Unfortunatly uninstalling/re-installing iTunes and all doesn't always seem to work. We had the same issue with the ipod touch being recognized as a digital camera under windows xp. We tried just about any recipe listed by apple or others with no success.
In the end what works is to just force the drivers on what windows thinks is a camera, i.e. to ‘update’ the device to use the correct driver. There are some hints on how to do this already listed on this forum, but I’ll try to give some more detailed information:
1. First off you need to have iTunes installed and the ipod touch plugged in
and recognized as ‘something’ e.g. digital camera (it shouldn’t really
matter what it’s recognized as, but it needs to be found by windows).
2. Search for usbaapl in the C:\WINDOWS system folder:
o open windows explorer (e.g. Right-click Start and then click ‘explore’)
o right-click the WINDOWS folder and select ‘Search’).
o type in usbaapl and hit Search – try to ignore the dog!
You should find the driver info in a sub folder of
C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRVSTORE e.g. C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRVSTORE\usbaapl_A65621D65F5B7507DD7B22331826547BDD2D206B
Remember that location (either leave the search box open or copy the folder
name into note pad – you’ll need it later)
If you don’t find usbaapl.sys, usbaapl.inf etc. then your drivers have not
been installed with the iTunes install and you’ll have to reinstall iTunes.
3. Locate the ipod-camera device:
o Open the device manager, e.g. using Start > Control Panel >
Performance and Maintenance > System > Hardware Tab > Device Manager
o Look for a device called ‘ipod’ - if your ipod shows up as
‘digital camera’ it will be under something like ‘imaging devices’.
4. Update the driver:
o Right click the ‘ipod-camera’ in device manager and click on
‘Update Driver’ – the Hardware Update Wizard will open.
o Check the ‘Install from a list or specific location’ then click ‘Next’
o Check ‘Search for the best driver in these locations’. Un-check
‘Search removable media’ and check ‘Include this location in the search’.
In the text box below type (or better copy and paste) the folder
containing the ipod driver information found in step 1 (in the example
above it was C:\WINDOWS\system32\DRVSTORE\usbaapl_A65621D65F5B7507DD7B22331826547BDD2D206B),
then click Next.
You should now see something like ‘Apple ipod device driver’ or so. Continue
installing that device. Once the driver has been installed the ipod will come
to life and iTunes (if you have it open) will show it.
Hope this helps. Please add comments to the instructions above if you find variations that work for you."
Apple should fix things like this!
