IPod Touch 5th will no longer forward tweets or text/pix from other apps. Only text tapped directly in to Mail app goes out.

Oh boy, I've said it all in the Subject line. Sorry, new here.
TiA for any help.

I understand the various methods - I was just worried because I've never restored via iCloud - from the limited experience I've had thus far, I'm impressed! But of course if Apple does it, it's going to be the best experience possible! :-)
And as you may have guessed from my now having iCloud restore experience, it is due to me going ahead and trying a reset to factory settings/wiping it clean. And unfortunately - the bottom bar is STILL THERE! <much argghhing! and %^$#@*&^%$'ing loudly>
I did try wiping it a couple of times, but no joy. At this point, I'm guessing this means there's something majorly wrong with the graphics subsystem and/or main board? It's not a screen issue as it's working fine - in fact it's working double-time displaying two things at once - dimensional transcendentalists take note! <grin>
So unless anyone else has some fantastically bright ideas, I'm guessing this means I need to call Apple next? I'm guessing one of these pages has the appropriate contact info - I'm just not at all looking forward to being without my favorite gadget in the history of gadgetdom (and as you can tell from my username, I've been a fan of Apple Gadgets for quite awhile now!).
Anyone know if Apple offers any advanced replacement options? Or if there's anyway to tell if my Touch is stil under warranty? I can't remember the exact purchase date but probably coming up very soon - have they been out a year? Sorry if thee questions are silly, as I said, I'm a newbie to Apple Support - first Apple product I've ever owned that broke!
Thanks for any info for anyone coming in late to the fun, and/or for any tips on who/what to call and ask about.
Wish me luck! :-0

Ipod Touch 5 will no longer sync after update 7.1.2

After updating from iOS 7.1.1 to 7.1.2 my Ipod touch 5th gen no longer syncs with my iTunes 11.3.1.1 when connecting it to my computer (windows 8.1) what comes up on my touch's screen is "trust this computer?" I press the "trust" button then a few seconds later I get the disconnected tone from my computer and nothing else happens (it still charges) and just checked it out on my Windows 7 computer (iTunes 11.3.1.2)and it recognized it fine (but the other computer has my playlists) I've tried updating to iTunes 11.3.1.2, updating iPod drivers and uninstalling then re-installing iPod drivers and iTunes is still not connecting to my iPod. Help please.

On your computer go to the control panel (hover in the lower right corner) then programs, add/remove programs
Uninstall iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Service, Apple Application Support then go to apple.com and redownload and reinstall iTunes and try again.
You won't lose any content, you're not deleting that, just the programs that access them.
What is thought to happen is that sometimes a new version of itunes doesn't update the drivers in those other two programs. The only way to update the drivers is to force it by uninstalling the programs which allows itunes to write the correct ones.
My iPad and iPod did exactly the same thing and this is how I fixed it.

IPod Touch 5th gen no longer working with Mini stereo...

I have an 'entertainment pack' in my Mini that allows me to connect my iPod Touch 5th gen to the car stereo (via USB & aux in cables) to both listen to it and scroll through my music through the stereo interface. I have had a few problems before with it not connecting but these usually resolved themselves within a day or so and I think were more to do with my lightning to 30 pin adapter than my actual iPod. However, since I installed the latest ios7 update a couple of days ago I cannot get it to work at all and keep getting a message saying 'this accessory is not supported' when I plug the iPod into my car. Any suggestions on how I can resolve this?

Try another adopter, a genuine Apple one
Next:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: 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. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
Sometimes an iOS update breaks compatibility and you will have to wait for an update to either the car system or to the iPod

Since installing iOS 7 my iPod Touch 5th gen is occasionally failing set some emails as "read". It only happens on two of the six accounts I monitor on my iPod. This previously worked fine across all my devices (blackberry Bold, PC running Windows 8/outlo

Is there an email account setting somewhere on my iPod touch 5th gen where I can reset the number of unopened emails in the inbox to zero? This worked fine until I installed iOS7, and still does on the other devices (Blackberry, windows 8 PC/Outlook 2010) And it only does this on the occasional email and not in all accounts. I won't repeatedly delete/reinstall the accounts as suggested elsewhere. Thanks.

Ipod Touch 4g will no longer sync with iTunes - help!!!

I have an iPod Touch 4 and am using the latest version of iTunes 11.0.2.26 but can no longer get my ipod to sync with itunes. When I click on Sync I get the message 'waiting for changes to be applied' then 'finished' but it does not sync. I have completely restored my ipod and have uninstalled iTunes, Apple Update, Quicktime, Bonjour, Apple Mobile Device Support before reinstalling iTunes. All my music in iTunes is from my own library rather than purchased from iTunes. It all used to work fine and I feel I've exhausted all my knowledge in fixing this and need some assistance. Can anyone help?

Seems like you've tried the most important steps in troubleshooting, so that's good.
What I'm wondering is: when you deinstalled iTunes and all those other things, did you do it in a specific order, according to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923 for windows Vista/windows 7 or http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925 for windows XP ? I don't see Apple Application Support in the list of components you deleted. I would recommend removing everything again in the specific order using the article you need and trying again to sync.
Also: try creating another user account on your computer and syncing again, because sometimes software issues are user-wide.
hope this helps, keep me posted

My 4th gen ipod touch imessage will no longer work

Hello, My 4th generation ipod touch imessage last month has stopped working. I have tried every trick in the book from signing in and out of imessage, facetime, my apple account. Resetting settings, and i even backed up my data to my pc and factory reset my itouch. And now my itouch wont even show my previous message history i've had saved. When i attempt to message someone it shows a red exclamation mark and says my message can't be sent. And i've had a friend sit next to me and send me a imessage, it'll register it's sent from them but i will never receive it.
How can i get my imessage to work again, theirs some important people who are deployed who i am only able to communicate via imessage with.
And also how can i get my previous messages and saved history to show up, i know i backed them up but i have no idea how to access them anymore.
Thank you- Marco

Not knowing what your tried:

Try when connected to another network

3rd generation ipod touch that will no longer sync but charges

I have a 3rd generation ipod touch. It was syncing to my itunes just fine and then one day it stopped syncing. It shows that its charging but never syncs anything. When i click to do a manual sync, it goes through the process but does not transfer any music. Any suggestions. I am running windows 7 64bit if that makes any difference with the newest version of itunes.

On your computer go to the control panel (hover in the lower right corner) then programs, add/remove programs
Uninstall iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Service, Apple Application Support then go to apple.com and redownload and reinstall iTunes and try again.

HT201210 Tried to reset iPod Touch. Will not go past Connect to iTunes screen. Connection is being made because I can see my apps in iTunes.

In order to get rid of frozen screen, I did a reset from the utilities app. Now I can not get past the "Connect to iTunes" screen. I can see connection in iTunes and when I sync or restore, screen changes to "Connected to iTunes." But when sync is over, I am still stuck on "Connect to iTunes" with no way to proceed. I have tried different USB ports. All updates are current. How do I get past this screen?

Maybe:
Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes)
Troubleshoot your USB connection. If the issue persists, out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software may be causing this issue. Please follow Troubleshooting security software issues. .
Next try placing in DFU mode and then restoring.

Then try restoring on another computer.
Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

My iPod Touch 5th Generation no longer connects to my computer

It used to work, but now it doesn't. When I plug the wire into the wall, it works just fine, but I can't update any of my music anymore. I have only had the thing for about four months. I would appreciate if there was a solution that didn't require buying a new cable.

Does it charge when connected to the computer? Some Lightning cables have faild after short use.
Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. If the cable is defective, Apple will replace it at no cost if it was not abused..

I cant get songs from itunes to sync!!!!!

Disabling the computer's antivirus and firewall during the download and update usually resolves the timeout error.

Why does my iPod touch 5th gen 8.1 keep deleting my purchased music from my music library?

I know how to retrieve them, but it's very inconvenient to want a song and not find it.

if you charge it on your computer it could be possible that the settings are resyncing to the setting that were last updated on your computer and dsaved for your ipod
