Ipod touch can't find wi-fi connection
I live in a very public spot. My neighbor has an ipod touch that connects find to my router. My itouch can't even find a single network when I click wireless
I would do a full restore before I went any further. Hook up to iTunes and click the Restore Button.
Here's some really good tips about your Touch battery life and more:

When your iPod is back from it's restore, try the WiFi again and let us know what you find. BTW, the only thing you really need to reset if you are having WiFi problems is the network settings.

Lost my ipod touch can i find it if someone uses it
I lost my ipod touch can i find it if someone uses it
If you set up the Find My iPod service prior to the iPod going missing, then there is a chance that can be tracked, though it depends on a number of factors (the iPod is turned on, connected to a WiFi network, and has not had the Find My iPod service disabled or the iPod been completely restored).
If you did not set up Find My iPod, then there is no way to track it. Contact the police and change any passwords for any online accounts you may have used from your iPod (the iTunes Store, for instance).

My iPod touch can't find any wifi?
My iPod touch can't find any wifi at all. I've restored it reset everything and it still can't find the wifi even when I had it right next to the router. Any help please? I got this ipod from my brother a few days ago and apparently the wifi worked fine until he updated it to the 3.1 update or something like that so he gave it to me. I want to be able to connect to the wifi in my house and it just won't. Any help please????
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
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- 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.

Ipod touch can't find chromecast
ipod touch can't find installed chromecast even though they are both on the same wireless router. ideas?
The problem is probably because of the Chromecast. My Chromecast has had the same problem, but it´s Chromecast´s problem. Try reseting your Chromecast, or dissconect from your Wi-Fi Network and connect again.

Ipod touch can't find wifi network
Can anyone help me? my ipod touch isn't letting me use wifi access. this is due to it not letting me chose an access point. When I go to settings and tap wifi, it is saying there is no wifi active in the area, even though there is. The wifi is working on every other device including pc and phone.

When I press the iTunes button on my ipod touch I get the message 'cannot connect to iTunes store' . My wifi is working fine, I can connect to safari & you tube, no parental setting in place, and time and date are correct. Can anyone help please? I have restored my ipod to factory settings and rest it.
I also tried moving the date forward by a year and then moving it back to normal and it still doesn't work. i can't find an automatic update of time zones on my itouch to turn this off.

Is there anyway I can use my iPod Touch serial number or Apple ID to trace and find back my iPod Touch? Cause I lost it recently(as you know iPod Touch can only go online if there is WiFi). is there any other ways too, apart from contacting the police?Is there anyway I can use my iPod Touch serial number or Apple ID to trace and find back my iPod Touch?

No.
- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
iCloud: Find My iPhone
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
- If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

Bought a new Ipod touch and the WiFi does not connect. Tried Reset and total Restore, does not connect to Router on DHCP, tried Static IP, Subnet, Router and DNS manually and still can not get it to connect even though it registers as connected. Using Airport for router, latest firmware, no problems with Iphone 4 or Macbook Pro or any other internet devices. After total Restore (factory settings) tried again, showed connected to router, but does not display "check" next to router but little rotating icon even though the wifi range signal shows connected at full strength and it says it is connected. Just can't seem to get it to generate an IP. Any solutions other than turning it on and off again? Not a Merry Christmas morning.
Ok, so, a couple of things: Denisefromwaleska and I have the exact same size/type/color iPod. Now wishing I'd bought the black one maybe...
Second, Airport is an Express and I have a second one that I carry with me when I travel. Tried to connect my Airport Express to the internet and could not although the iPod did recognize the router and tried to connect to the internet for some time, unlike my previous problem. Updated firmware on my travel router, still could not connect to the internet. Going to try to set up a manual Static IP on the travel router here in a few and conect through it although I predict the problem will persist. Back on the Christmas Present Airport Express router, it is back in play and working fine for all devices save the iPod.
Thanks again for all your help, hopefully I can get a solution in place soon, -

My Ipod Touch is disabled and when I connect to Itunes to recover it, it states that itiTunes could not connect to the iPod touch “iPod touch” because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the iPod touch before it can recover.
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode. -
IPod Touch can't stay connected to iTunes
I just bought an iPod touch but when I try to connect it to my WinXP laptop, it won't stay connected for more than a few seconds. I hear the iPod make a sound when it sees that it is connected to my laptop and it appears in the iTunes list for 10-30 seconds before disconnecting. After several tries to stay connected, sometimes iTunes claims that it can't connect to the "iPhone" and gives me an error 0xE8000001.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes. No success.
I tried different USB ports. No success.
It seemed to work fine for the first few days after purchase but now this problem has come upHi, DJSchmike.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you are experiencing issues with iTunes disconnecting your older iPod nanos automatically. This can be difficult to troubleshoot and you have already processed some great steps with no resolution. The next step would be troubleshooting USB connections and security software conflicts. Here are some troubleshooting guides that I would recommend going through.
