Ipod touch 4g + keynote remote not pairing

my mac and ipod touch 4g is on same wifi network and is running the keynote remote. the keynote app is 09 and my keynote does not find my ipod.

Hey Paul (and others dealing with this problem) -
Just had the same problem. Earphones were good but remote and mic weren't working on my iPod Touch 4G. All functions worked great on my iPad (1) when I decided to try that though.
I had read that you should try to clean it out with a Qtip (after you remove a bit of the fuzz), but this only got some dirt out, but barely anything.
It wasn't until I decided to carefully take a straightened paperclip in there and gently prod around, that a sizeable lint ball came out plugged to the paperclip's point.
Solved the problem 100%. So ecstatic since I too thought I'd have to turn my iPod in on warrenty. Just be careful when prodding, delicate parts in there - but so far so good.
Best of luck!
Nick

  • Remote app on iPod touch and iPhone will not pair with Apple TV

    I have an iphone 3G and ipod touch with the remote app installed. I am unable to pair either with my ATV. When I go to remotes on my ATV and remote app on either ipod or iphone there does not appear to be an option to control apple tv.

  • My home computer recently went down . it was restored by an expert who put three peoples itunes libraries into one. now I cant sync my ipod touch because it is not paired. I also cant access most of the music without knowing exactly were it came from

    my son , my wife and I all had I-tunes libraries off various i-pod touches and I phones. The computer crashed and the expert lumped all the songs onto one library in the administrator desk top of the refigured computer. Now we cannot access any of the music unless we know how to locate it, which could take forever with 311 albums. Also we cannot get anything to sync as I tunes will not pair because it doesnt recognise any of the devices. Any suggestions gratefully received

  • How can I use my iPod Touch as a remote for iTunes, while connected via USB?

    I was wondering if I could use my iPod touch as a remote/iTunes extension while it is connected to my computer via usb.
    It would be highly practical to control my music from there, since it is charging right by my side while I'm at my computer.
    Remote is not really an option, my computer doesn't have bluetooth or any connectivity. Something over wifi would work, but there's a usb connection right there that's begging to be used.
    Thanks

    You can't do it via USB.  Go to the App store and download/install the Apple Remote app.  It can control iTunes on your computer via wifi.

  • My ipod touch 4th gen won't pair with bluetooth audio receiver?

    My ipod touch 4th gen won't pair with my aluratech istream universal bluetooth audio receiver.  It automatically paired the first time I used it, but now will not pair.  I removed the bluetooth receiver from the ipod because it kept saying make sure the receiver device is on and within range.  Now it doesn't even detect the bluetooth receiver.  Any ideas?

    Thank you!  We got the bluetooth receiver to use with our car stereo and our motorcycle stereo and were very frustrated when it quit working.  Thank you for helping me solve the problem!

  • The head phone jack on my brand new iPod touch 5th generation is not working properly

    The head phone jack on my brand new iPod touch 5th generation is not working properly. It has sound without the headphones in but when I plug them in it has no sound, it's low, or poppy. I had only used my apple supplied headphones once before and it worked fine. I know it's not the headphones because I tried them on my girlfriends phone and they worked fine.

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iOS device. 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.
    - 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.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

  • ITunes shows the music and audiobooks I've loaded to my iPod Touch, but they do not show up when I try to play them.

    iTunes shows the music and audiobooks I've loaded to my iPod Touch, but they do not show up when I try to play them.  I reconnect to iTunes and it shows the music and books as being loaded on my iPod.
    Sometimes the audiobook will play, then disappear from iPod's play menu after I reconnect to iTunes and load more music.  I've got plenty of free memory, and iTunes shows the files still on iPod.
    ....or should I just roll it back to iOS 5...  never had these kinds of issues with the old OS.

    I am having the same problem (lost in back-up purgatory) on both my iPhone 4 and my iPad2.  I am running Windows XP.
    I have tried everything I've seen suggested on various support communities, with no success.
    I have gotten used to having to find a windows workaround everytime Apple updates iTunes, and this time it is especially frustrating.  
    I don't have any solutions, and I am responding to all of these types of messages in hopes of finding something that will work for me.
    One person was able to work through it by deleting all of the previous iTunes backup files.  I'm trying that now.  4 hours into it, and it does not seem to be working......

    - Try another USB port.
    - Try on another computer
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

  • How can I change the Apple ID that appears on my iPod Touch? It's not the correct ID.

    Somehow the email address that appears as my Apple ID when opening my iPod Touch (5th gen) is not my correct email address/Apple ID.  How can I change my Apple ID withing my Touch so I can access apps?

    You might have to transfer purchases to your account. If its signed in on a different account. Or,
    1. Go to iTunes on your iPod.
    2. Click music and scroll down to the bottom on your iPod.
    3. It should show the apple ID that's signed in, and press it and choose sign out.
    4. Then click sign in and it should work.
    Hope this helps.
