    Whose account id shows in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores if it's on iOS 6) ? If it's yours then tap on it and log out of it, and your husband can then log in with his account

  • IPod Touch 4th Generation Wifi / FaceTime, YouTube, & iMessage Question

    I got my iPod Touch 4th Generation today at an Apple store. Brand new. I opened it up, used FaceTime & iMessage for a while, and then I shut it off. When I turned it back on, and tried to go on FaceTime or iMessage, it asked me to sign in. Gave me a "Get Started" page. So, I sign in ( mind you, I'm connected to WiFi the whole time. I can surf the web, no YouTube for some reason, but I know WiFi is on and connected ) and a pop up comes up. The title is, in this case it's for the iMessage, iMessage Activation and it says "Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again." Same thing happens for FaceTime. It worked before, so I don't know why it's doing this. I turned my WiFi on and off, and I can't do anything about the router because it's not mine. However, I know it works because I can surf Safari, and use internet on my laptop. Please help! I've looked everywhere for an answer and nothing. I just got this today! And it worked before. Please help.

    Try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    There's more that you can try but you just got the darned thing today.  Perhaps a return visit to the store is appropriate.

  • Ipod touch 4th generation 8gb question

    Hi guys. I just wanted to ask whether the 8gb ipod touch 4th generation is actually a 4th generation ipod. because i know that the 3rd generation 8gb isn't actually a 3g itouch but a 2g one. I wondered if the same 'catch' applied to the 4th gen 8gb? also does the 8gb 4th gen lack certain capabilities compared to the 32gb and 64gb 4th gen versions? (basically anything apart from less space).
    thanks in advance.

    Your 4th gen is fine. The confusion only exist between the 2nd and 3rd generation units.

  • I cannot download Adobe Reader app using my IPod Touch 4th Generation due to iOS upgrade.

    I have an IPod Touch 4th Generation (the older model) and the highest operating system stops at iOS 6.1.6. Unfortunately, when I tried to download Adobe Reader app, it only works for the newer IPod Touch 5th Generation with an operating system of iOS 7.0 or higher. My question is that since I cannot download Adobe Reader app, is there a way for me to open PDF files on my IPod Touch by using Safari? There is no way I can find an Adobe Reader app that works for my operating system or an operating system that works for iOS 6.0 or lower. Is there another program similar to Adobe Reader where I can open PDF files that works for iOS 6.0 or lower?
    Thanks.

    Krispy2010,
    Please note that my instructions are intended for Adobe Reader for iOS, not for all iOS apps in general.
    Adobe Reader for iOS does offer earlier compatible versions for iOS 5 and 6 via the App Store.  Because the supported iOS version for Adobe Reader for iOS is 5 or later.
    Tech specs | Adobe Reader mobile app
    However, I cannot speak for other apps, such as Costco app and NFL app that you have mentioned.  It is up to each individual app developer/company to decide whether to take advantage of Apple's App Store's features to offer earlier versions.
    Install the latest compatible version of an app on an earlier version of iOS or OS X - Apple Support
    If a compatible version isn't available, you can try contacting the app developer. Look for contact information on the app's product page in the App Store or Mac App Store.

  • How do I fix the connection issues on my iPod Touch 4th generation to connect to iMessage?

    I am getting very frustrated with this iPod Touch 4th generation. I have been using my 2nd generation iPod Touch to use iMessage to text people and use as a 'fake iPhone' because carrying around my cell phone and iPod is annoying.
    Basically, I have tried multiple times to change the DNS on every network to the google public server (8.8.8.8) and this does not work.
    I attempt to sign in to my Apple ID on iMessage and it says "iMessage Activation: Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again." Even though it claims I cannot connect to the internet, I can connect and browse on Safari and other Apps, but iMessage (also Facetime) will never connect or let me sign in. I continually receive that error message that I need to check my network connection. I just don't understand why. iMessage will work on my iPad 3rd gen and my iPod Touch 2nd gen, but not my iPod Touch 4th gen.
    I am using my college's WiFi network and it is hit and miss in my building, but both my iPod touch 2nd gen and iPad 3rd gen can receive iMessages and everything fine. I am starting to think that the 4th gen ipod touch just has a crappy wifi receiver or something.
    PLEASE help me fix this. I don't know what else to do.
    I just updated to iOS 6.1.2 and that did not fix it either.

    I know this question is no related directly to your topic, but I wanted to know how did you get imessage in ipod touch 2g. I have one but it doesn't have imessage. I will appreciate your help. Thanks in advance.

  • I have an IPOD touch 4th generation. When I try to go and buy apps from Itunes and App store it askes for ssecurity codes because it is the 1st time using it. can not remember. How do I reset it or find them?

    I have an IPOD touch 4th generation. When I try to buy apps from apps store and Itunes it says this is the 1st time doing it so wants me to answer security questions. Granddaughter put 2 in the ipod but can't remember them. how do i either change them so I know what they are or just take them out again?

    Strange; yesterday there was a link via which you could get a reset email sent, but today that link is missing. So if you've forgotten your answers, there is no way around the problem without involving Apple. Go here:
    http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    to report the issue to the iTunes Store.
    Regards.

  • My iPod Touch 4th Generation 8gb won't turn on and is frozen on the loading symbol/wheel, I tried the method where you hold the home and lock button lots of times and it hasn't worked! What do I do?

    My question won't all fit in but it says 'My iPod Touch 4th Generation 8gb won't turn on and is frozen on the loading symbol/wheel. What do I do?'
    I've had this problem from about two weeks and I forgot about it, but today I wanted to play on it and remembered that it's not working, I've tried connecting it to iTunes via my laptop but I'm not to sure how to update it because I thought that might fix it, but no luck. I've tried the trick where you hold the lock and home button but nothing happened apart from it just went back to the apple logo and then to the frozen loading symbol/wheel. I need help!

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - 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.

  • I have the ipod touch 4th generation and the screen is white, i was going to charge it and it turned white. I have tried to reset it but the apple logo will not show up and it will not turn on! i just got it for christmas... can you please help?

    i have the ipod touch 4th generation and the screen is white, i was going to charge it and it turned white. I have tried to reset it but the apple logo will not show up and it will not turn on! i just got it for christmas... can you please help?

    The way I did it was I got the free app sync:stream from the App Store and then added my ipod to my ps3's Bluetooth devices. Then went to audio settings and set output and input to 'Skaggs iPod' you then open the app and it will be listed under music as a media service. You then go to all tracks and click copy (press triangle) it will then begin to copy all of your songs onto your ps3 via Bluetooth. I haven't tried but I assume the same can be done with photos. I hope this was helpful reply if you have any questions :) good luck

    My Apple iPod Touch 4th Generation was stolen if the thief signed out of my iCloud account on the device will it go away on the web map on my computer and keep me from locking it remotely? I was asking my grandmother who works in apple tech support at at&t but she didnt know. so im hoping somebody will come by and say yes to my question because my iPod touch is still appearing in my iCloud.com account.

    Yes. If it was signed out from iCloud, it will disappear from the Devices list in Find my iPhone.

  • What docking station works with the ipod touch 4th generation?

    What docking station is works with the ipod touch 4th generation?  We have a Bose docking station which I'm having trouble getting it to fit onto.

    Gal:
    I'm not exactly clear what your question is.
    How does the system you have been given not work with your iPod? What is the problem?
    What is your point about the 4th generation adaptor? The "adaptor" is merely a physical piece of plastic that sits in the Docking Station's dock and creates the exact shape for your model of iPod to fit snugly into it. So a 1st or 2nd generation iPod would not benefit in any way from a 4th gen adaptor.
    Are you trying to find a portable iPod Docking Station that works without mains power?
    You said: " the customer service agent said it would make the iPod fit, but it wouldn't charge or play music." What is your point about charging the iPod? I don't understand what you are trying to say. I presume that the system you've been given does charge a 1st and 2nd gen iPod.
    The product you linked to looks portable to me. So why does it not suit your needs, is this about using it out in the garden (my question 2)?
    Less complicated in what way? What exactly are you finding complicated? Simply place the iPod into the Docking Station and (presumably) select the iPod input and press play.
