IPod Touch and Bluetooth GPS?

MCM Electronics is advertising a Bluetooth GPS receiver at http://www.mcmelectronics.com/product/58-13300. Would something like this work with my 3rd generation iPod Touch? If so, what app would I need?
Steve

The Touch's Bluetooth capability is limited to stereo audio (A2DP) and connecting to other Touches or iPhones for gaming. So no, this device would not pair up with the Touch.

Ipod touch and bluetooth

I have a Bose system that will only work with Bluetooth ,but my Ipod Touch 5 will not find this device. Any suggestions

Hello, I'm assuming you have already checked that your Bose system will work with your ipod 5, and that all Bose use the same system (I don't know if they do). I have an iPod 5 and Bose SoundLink Mini, worth every penny! Great sound for something around 1.4 pounds and small enough to carry with one hand, sorry of the commercial, but I love this speaker. With the Mini all I had to do was first make sure the speakers had power (charged / plugged in, whatever), Second make sure I was in range (found I can be on the opposite end of the house with out a problem). Turned on the speaker, noted the Bluetooth icon was pulsing blue, then turned on the my iPod's Bluetooth and waited a minute or so until the signal was acquired, the speaker confirmed the connection was made when the Bluetooth icon stopped pulsing blue and turn a solid white and makes a tone. On my iPod when I go into Settings>Bluetooth it shows Bose MiniSoundL... Connected. From there it should be automatic to listen to your speakers. If your speaker is showing a solid white icon but not connected to your iPod, try pushing the speakers Bluetooth icon until it shows the pulsing blue light then turn on your iPod, and wait for it to find the signal. If the iPod is not recognizing the speaker but shows it is there tap on the blue "i" in the circle and then tap Forget This Device, then start over. Turn on the speaker with the blue pulsing icon then turn on your iPod's Bluetooth and give it a minute or so to find the signal. Once you get things working you should turn the iPod's volume up to almost full volume, mine does this automatically when Bluetooth is running and adjust the sound from the speakers. Hope this helps, Good luck.

HT204387 Help with ipod touch and bluetooth headphones

Hi
I have an iPod Touch (5th gen) and I'm trying to connect my Bluetooth Headphones but my iPod can't find them. I can connect them with my iPad no problem, but not my iPod.
There's nothing on the headphones that I can change I don't think.
Any suggestions??!
Thanks
Kerstey

- Reset the headphones. Sometimes you have to do that to pair to another device. How yo do that depends upon the headphones
- On the iPod
- 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 network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. Y will also have to rejoin all wifi netwporks

IPod touch and bluetooth - what to expect.

Hello all, After trying to connect my planetronics head set and searching for an hour for an answer on why I cant see it, I thought I'd post my findings here.
#1 The bluetooth on my 2nd gen 16gb itouch doesnt work/support devices the way that other bluetooth enabled devices I've used do. This leads me to believe Apple has hobbled the blue tooth support in some way.
#2 Apple doesnt have an "official" document/web blurb/call it whatever you want - explanation on the support of bluetooth in the itouch.
Personal comment: I paid my money to upgrade to 3.1.1 because they said it supported Bluetooth. Ok Apple...What's the story?

It does support Bluetooth. But there are around 20 different Bluetooth profiles for many different purposes. It doesn't support every one of them - neither does any other Bluetooth device.

That's because the connection probably requires a profile that is not supported by the iPod Touch. See here for a list of supported profiles.

Ipod Touch and GPS

I'm looking at buying 32/64gb "touch" but can't find clarity on whether or not I can use it as a walking gps. I'm particularly interested in using it for Venice Italy. Does it come with GPS/maps as does the Iphone or can I at least buy and "app" for Italy.

The iPod Touch has no GPS receiver. Your approximate location is determined using available information from local Wi-Fi networks (if you have Wi-Fi turned on). The iPod has the Google Maps application. When connected to a Wifi hot spot like your hotel, you can view maps and plan routes. You can use a cached route map when not connected to WiFi. You can also buy local maps and guides for an iPod Touch like this example which has offline maps: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/venice-2go/id332120643?mt=8
Take a look at the iPod Touch User Guide available here: http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/iPod_touch_3.1_UserGuide.pdf

I have an iPod Touch and an iPad. Cannot connect to iCloud.

Trying to connect to the iCloud I get message that "the certificate for this server in invalid". This happens with both my iPod Touch and iPad running ios 5.
Trying to connect through an Airport Express. Are there setting for Airport that need to be changed to correct or ??

This?

Otherwise
Does the iPod connect to other networks?
Does the iPod see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iPod connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- 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.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Zwei iPod touch via bluetooth verbinden/Connecting two iPod touch via Bluetooth

Hallo,
ich möchte, um das Spiel Shrek Kart im Mehrspieler-Modus zu spielen, zwei iPod touch mit bluetooth verbinden. Leider finden sich die Geräte gegenseitig nicht.
Wer kann mir helfen?
Danke!

depends. for syncing and software updates: yes.
for putting e.g. MS Office files or .pdf files on it: check out e.g. _*Flash Drive*_ or _*Documents To Go*_. both require a wi-fi connection, though.
what about if I download any bluetooth program from the App Store ( For Example: iBlueNova ).
searching the app store for iBlueNova did not bring up anything for me. instead, search for +bluetooth fileshare+. maybe that app is for you ...

I can't get my iPad to find my iPod touch via bluetooth... Help!!!

I can't get my iPad to find my iPod touch via bluetooth, tried shutting off wifi on both and reseting. iPod 2 days old, 4 th gen white, iPad 2 = 2 months old

This is happening to many people.
For me, it's the Key Note Remote app that won't connect with my iPad2 from my iPhone4 after update to iOS5.
Apparently this does not affect the new iPhone 4S.
But that's not a solution unless you are planning on upgrading.
I'm still waiting for a response from Apple but I'd advise you to go to whichever app isn't connecting with Bluetooth and hit the "REPORT A PROBLEM" button in iTunes app page for said app.
This will go directly to the devs and should ellicite a faster response.
Hope this gets fixed soon.
Warm regards.

Do the iPod Touch 5g have GPS?

Does the iPod Touch 5g have GPS?

I don´t know if a real GPS is in the Ipod touch 4G, but if you use an app like GPS stone or Navfree you see a realtime signal in places without Wifi. I think the tip is to open the app in a wifi site to allow localization, and to previously charge the maps to be used in cache. The same with Maps. I´m using IOS6 and it was a surprise the first time I see the GPS arrow in the screen this week.

Pairing iPod touch with Bluetooth head set

I have a Gen2 iPod touch and just bought a bluetooth head set to use with skype but when I turn on Bluetooth it wont discover it and I know the headset works because it pairs with my computer.
I bought the os upgrade when it came out and just updated the software, I also restarted the iPod. the only thing I haven't done is restore the iPod which I wanted to avoid.
Anyone had this problem before? Any ideas of how to fix this?

Assuming Nissan says it will work with an iOS device with iOS 8:
- Reset the Nissan system
- Reset network settings on the iPod: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. You will have to rejoin wifi networks and re-pair all BT devices
- Go to Nissan's support site
- 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.
Note that sometimes an iOS update breaks compatibility.

I have an ipod touch and want to purchase an ipad can i use one account

I have an Ipod touch and want to purchase an ipad. Can the same account be used. Can my purchases on my ipod touch be synced to my ipad?

the only limits you'll face is if any of your iPod touch apps are for the iPhone only, they'll show up as tiny in the middle of the screen. There'll be a 2X button that'll allow you to zoom it up...some look better than others. All depends on how high resolution they are made.
Other apps will be in the app store with a + by them, those are universal and scale to fit the screen they are displayed on. Other apps you'll need to buy the iPad version. And you'll find some apps that are iPad only.
