I'm having troubles connecting to my wifi at home. I have the 4th Gen. iPod touch. My screen is cracked, does this have anything to do with it? I recently had a trip down to LA, and before my trip the wifi was working fine. Is there anyway to fix this?
the wifi works perfectly fine on all my other electronics, and I've already tried reseting and moving the router. The wifi signal is only strong if I am within 5 feet of the router.
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: 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.

i have a 4th gen ipod touch. i reset all settings and it has not restarted yet. it has been resetting for about 8 hours now. It won't let me restart the iPod touch. the loading screen just keeps running.
Hi paul.lisa,
Then when you press down on one of those icons (on the actual Home screen), and all the icons start to wiggle, a small black "x" should show up in the upper left-hand corner:

hi , i have a 4th gen ipod touch and it runs on 4.3.5 but it wont let me update it to 5.1.1! everytime i try to install it..it says "sorry your network timed out" and wont let me! i tried so many times and it still wont work.. what to do?
Disabling the computer's security software (firewall and antivirus) usually resolves that error.

I have a 4th gen. ipod touch. It has software 4.2.1 and itunes always tells me I need to update to ios 6. I always click download and install. After the download is complete, nothing happens. It doesn't install on its own and there is no option to install manually.. Thanks.
Are you sure it is a 4G iPod? Does it have a camera?

Sometimes when listening to music or a podcast, it will stop and start in rapid fire. I have a 4th gen iPod Touch. A Genius suggested something went wrong during the transfer from my MBP to my iPod, but I tried resyncing it, and it seems to happen haphazardly. Even if a podcast plays oddly one time, it might play perfect the next - so it can't have been the sync that went bad.
- First try a reset. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next restore from backup

Whats the difference between the 4th gen iPod touch and the new one ?
whats the difference between the 4th gen iPod touch and the new one apart from it being white?
Yeah it sadly appears to be only color, I guess Apple and thier infinate wisdom decided iPod touches dont need to be as fast as the new iPhone. If it had a5 it could do Siri:(

I have a 4th gen iPod touch that won't power up! I tried all the traditional stuff. I want to know how to tell if the battery is good. itunes see's the ipod in recovery mode. Tried dfu mode and did not work. Any ideas? I can hear the PC beep when plugging it in! I suspect a bad battery and trying to charge it ina wall charger made it hot!
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- 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. The appointment is free.

Does the 4th Gen iPod touch and the iPads really support 802.11n?
Ok so I see on the boxes of my iPad and my iPod touch 4 say that they support 802.11n wifi connections. The iPad even supports 5Ghz 802.11n. However when I change the settings on my network to '802.11n only', only my MacBook Pro can connect to the network.
Config Details:
802.11 Band - 2.4Ghz
802.11n Mode - Auto
Bandwith - 20Mhz
Security - WPA2-PSK [AES]
What's really going on?? I also see that all the devices are in 'g mode' and only my computer is in 'n mode' based on the router settings.I do use it a lot for games...they tend to be larger files. My songs are whatever my dad buys and whatever I buy. Once I import this big batch of songs I will be at 700 songs and then will only add more when Dad or I buy them. I make a lot of money for a high schooler but my mom doesn't like how much I spend on iTunes (she's not into music the way I am). I don't want to have to pick and choose on which apps I have on my iPod. Songs, I can pick and choose if necessary. I just hate running low on available space.

Why is the app store so laggy and unstable on the 4th gen iPod touch running iOS 6?
the App Store lags and crashers heaps to the point were it is pretty much unusable
of the 4 touch screen units we have we have a ios 5.1.1 touch and ipad that we did not upgrade after I did just my touch, but my wifes new iphone 4s that came with ios 6 has had no problems at all. she went with the iphone 4s due to the "fire wire" connection issue. we both think it was a good for business / crappy for upgraders move on apples part ... we didnt want to have to buy an adapert for everything we use I ios devices for.

I connect my ipod and it syncs and goes to add the music but it won't finish adding everything. It stops with like 20 songs left and when I click sync so it will add the others it does the four step process thing for connecting and then doesn't do anything.
If it plays in iTunes on the computer then delete from iPod and sync to iPod
Also try deleting and redownloading by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store -
it wont turn on after reset to factory settings
there is a program called recboot. you can download it for free in two parts. one part takes your device out of recovery mode and the other puts it into recovery mode. ive used it before but it doesnt always work and you have to be patient. try it and tell me what happens

I have a 4th generation iPod touch which was working perfectly until I downloaded ios5 and now it won't connect to my wi-fi - all other devices working correctly. My pc didn't create a backup before updating software so I can't revert back to ios 4.3.5 from there, where can I download ios 4.3.5 from?
I tried just about everything and finally brought my Ipod touch to the apple store. The tech installed ios 4.3.5 but still no WIFI. He recommended a $149 exchange - not really a bad deal with a new battery and 90 day warranty, but I thought I'd try again.
The "solution" was bizarre. On YouTube was a fix involving taking the motherboard out and heating the wifi components with a heat gun.
I did not like that idea, but another involved turning it off, putting it in the freezer for five minutes and restarting. It worked! I must admit the fix does not work reliably, so I may still go for the exchange. Still, I am now convinced that it is a hardware problem. i remember back in the old days, TV repairmen sprayed a suspected bad resistor with Freon. The chilled component would work long enough to identify what needed replacement. Perhaps something similar is happening here.
For anyone wanting to try this, I found it more convenient to place the back of my ipod on a frozen cold pack until the wifi is restored. It seems to happen when condensation forms on the face. I used a towel to wipe off the moisture so as not to add to the problem.
