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.

If not this problem:
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem.
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Then:
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
- 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.

  • 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????

  • 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).

  • 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 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:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1575
    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.

  • I can no longer access the web on my IPod Touch through my home wifi network.

    I have an I Pod Touch with operating system 4.2.1.  It has worked fine the past year plus.  Suddenly, I can no longer access webpages on it.  When  try to load a website, looks like it is trying to open the page, but it never fully loads and times out. My I Pod indicates that it recognizes my wifi network and I have tried resetting both my I Pod and my router.  Weirder yet, I can access my Yahoo email on my I Pod and if there is a website link embedded in an email message, i can open it and access the page that way.  Any link on the web page opened through my email however does not work.  My home computer, which is on the same wifi network, is working fine.  The only thing that did occur recently was a power outage. 
    Please help - this is very frustrating.

    LTE indicates cellular. Tap Settings > Cellular then switch Cellular Data ON.
    If your Wi-Fi is working, then you should be able to access the internet.
    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You will have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
    * No data is lost due to a reset

  • IPod Touch very picky about WiFi networks

    It appears that some of you have already noticed that the iPod touch does not play well on some WiFi networks that otherwise should not be a problem.
    My own personal experience is this. My iPod touch works great on my home network as long as I don't have my repeater plugged in. It's all Linksys gear, probably what 80% or more of you have.
    I have tried it on two networks outside my home so far, and neither one has worked, while my laptop has no problem at all with the same networks. I'm at a Best Western right now. My Ipod is behaving the same way it does when I'm home and my repeater is turned on. It sees the network, gets an ip address and appears to connect properly, but doesn't go anywhere when I try to use any of the apps, Safari, YouTube, or the iTunes store.
    The other network I tried is at work. This requires WPA security. In this case, I can't get an IP address or connect at all. This after verifying the SSID and password many times. Once again, I have no problems with my laptop on this network either.
    It appears that the iPod touch is in desperate need of a few bug fixes and compatibility improvements in this area. I hope Apple is working hard to deliver a firmware update that will correct these issues soon.

    My home connection works great with just WEP encryption with a hidden SSID (yes I know it is weak but it is just a deterrent so the war driver will pass me up and go to the 10 other unsecured networks in my neighborhood haha).
    That being said I have had issues with my companies wireless on campus. I found a trick around it though which might help.
    If it has connected once before to the network in question and will not the 2nd or 3rd time:
    1.go to the settings
    2.then wireless
    3.tell it to forget the network in question
    4.wait in the wireless settings screen for it to see the network in question again and tell it to rejoin.
    I guess this sort of flushes out any corrupted/ weird settings.
    It has worked well for me.

  • 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?

    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.
