IPod Touch (4) does not automatically fetch email

My iPod Touch 4 does not fetch email unless I force it to. Push is off and my mail accounts are all working (MobileMe & Gmail).
I've tried everything and the device just sits there, even though it is set to fetch new emails every 15 minutes.
Any idea why? Also, does auto-lock interfere with fetch?
Cheers!

I believe you need to have "Push" turned on. Try that and see what happens

  • My ipod touch 4g does not show in Windows 7 or itunes.  I've removed and reinstalled itunes, stopped and started apple mobile services and changed out cables.  Ipod is charging when connected.  I've also done a complete rollback to factory defaults.

    You buy one and only one download.
    As it should have been transferred to your computer when you synced, you can contact itunes support and ask for an exception.

  • Content on my Ipod Touch that does not show up in my iTunes library.....???

    I have a group of about 6 podcasts on my ipod touch that I am trying to delete b/c I've already listened to them and want to free up space. Problem is when I plug into iTunes my library does not list these podcasts as being on my ipod. I know they are on there because I can listen to them but for some reason they do not show up. All of my other podcasts show up, just not these. I'm running iTunes 9.0.3.15 if that makes a difference.
    Seems like i've run into this problem before as well with an audiobook. Don't remember how I got rid of that.

    No problem. Glad to have helped.
    Not sure as to why it happened. I just know this has been happening to a few users lately. It may be with how you have your iPod touch configured to sync Podcasts. So you may want to double check these settings as well as mess around with them a bit to figure out if that is the cause. Otherwise, I'm not entirely sure on this one. Sorry I cannot be of much help here.

  • I have 3rd Generation IPod Touch, it does not boot up.  We have tried to restore, but we are stilling receiving errors.  Any ideas?

    I have a 3rd generation IPod Touch that no longer boot up.  I've downloaded the recovery, but it does not work.  It just lights up briefly and then we receive a message that the IPod drivers are not readable.  Any ideas what we can do to resolve?

    If iTunes is not seeing the iPod try:'
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    You said you "download the recovery"?  What is the recovery?

  • Ipod touch camera does not open

    have ipod touch, model PC547ZP version 5
    upgraded to OS 5 had all worked till other day now the camera will not open.
    tried powering on and off with no change
    know can restore but conserned might lose data etc
    anyone know of anything I can do to resovle this other than resetting it

    Maybe this can resolve it (you should normally not lose data following this method):
    1) Sync your iPod touch with iTunes (iTunes will also create a backup automatically).
    2) Reset your iPod touch: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
    3) Restore your iPod touch from backup: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414

  • IPod Touch 4g does not restore/update - error 3194

    Hello,
    I've recently been having a great deal of trouble with my 64GB iPod Touch 4g, which I purchased in maybe late March or early April of this year. I consider myself adequately learned in technology and I've done a vast amount of research into this problem, and have not been able to resolve it, so I took it upon myself to ask my question here.
    Firstly, I am running iTunes on a Windows 7 64-bit system, and I should note that I have found lots of answers to similar problems for people with jailbroken iPod Touches, but I don't think these solutions would work for me since I have not jailbroken my iPod. I have also not yet upgraded to iOS 6, but was on the latest version of iOS (5.x...I don't remember). Also, I bought my iPod from Amazon so obviously the 30-day return window has expired.
    Anyway, on to the problem. Yesterday, my iPod froze and so I reverted to the 'hard reboot' method of fixing it by pressing the home key and the sleep key at the same time, and released when the Apple logo showed up. I waited for the device to reboot as it normally does, except that in all the previous times I have done this hard reboot, while the Apple logo shows up for a little while until the lock screen loads, this time that did not happen. Instead, there were colored bars that showed up on the screen (I don't know how to describe it, exactly) that eventually covered up the Apple logo and faded into a completely white screen. From this screen, I tried the hard reboot again and the Apple logo showed up again, only to be covered up by those bars and fading into white again. I tried rebooting it a few more times, but to no avail.
    I then opened iTunes and plugged in my iPod, but it was not recognised by the computer (presumably because it was not fully on), so I tried putting the device in DFU recovery mode (hold the sleep key and home key until the device tells you to connect to iTunes). At this point, iTunes seemed to recognize that a device was plugged in, but not that it was my iPod because where it normally gives you the information (my iPod, Capacity: ...., Serial number: ... and so forth), the information just read 'iPod' (not 'My iPod', as it was named before this unfortunate event), 'Capacity: n/a, Serial number: n/a', and so forth. I pressed the 'restore' button and there was an error, 3194, on the step 'Verifying restore with Apple'.
    So I went to Google, looking up troubleshooting tips for this particular error, and most of the answers I found were just for people with jailbroken iPods, even though mine isn't jailbroken. I have tried numerous solutions (updating the hosts file in drivers, turning off the firewall, etc) to no avail, and I still get that pesky white screen whenever I try to reboot my device.
    I'm also worried that even if I get my device to restore successfully, then it still might not boot up properly. To be honest, I'm a little more worried about the booting problem than the restoring problem.
    Does anyone have any advice for what I should do in this situation, other than visit the Apple store? There is one in my town but I feel like I've invested a lot in this device and I don't want to pay too much for any repairs that may need to be done (especially considering that this appears to be a software issue and not a hardware one); I'm a high school student and don't have that much money.
    Thank you for any help.

  • How to fix an iPod touch that does not charge but gets hot in the lower back area?

    I have a 3rd generation iPod touch 32gb and it will not turn off, nor will it charge. Plugging in to my computer, iTunes does not even detected. Even if I leave it to charge, it does not detect it. The odd thing is that it get really hot in the lower back area of the iPod. It is hot to the touch, as though it were 80 degrees+. Anyway for me to fix this?
    The iPod is way out of warrenty, so I wonder if a Genius bar appointment will even help me. But I will give them a try.

    Replace the battery.  If that does not work, then system board is toasted...
