  • Is it possible to sync Itune Purchases from my IPod touch to my samsung 3 phone and if so how?

    I want to access books I purchased on my Ipod touch, on my Samsung 3 phone?

    If the music was purchased via iTunes, you can transfer purchases from the iDevice to iTunes.
    With the device connected, do not sync, select File > Transfer purchases.
    If the music was acquired via other sources, you are SOL.
    Where is the backup that you keep of your media and other important files?????
    I find it extremely difficult that someone would forget to back up their important files before reformating a computer.  IF that is the case, then I would say you just learned an important and possibly expensive lesson.

  • Can u use the ipod touch without wifi like the phones do

    can u use the ipod touch without wifi like the phones do

    That depends on what you mean by "use".
    Sure you can use it without wifi. Many apps do not require a connection to the Internet. The iPod app (or Music and Videos apps, I can never remember which the iPod Touch uses nowadays), for example.
    However, iPod Touch devices do not include the "cell phone parts" - i.e. they cannot connect to cellular voice or data networks. Therefore, when an iPod Touch cannot connect to a wifi network, it has no way to transceive data with the Internet (short of Bluetooth, but that's a special case and I'm sure not what you're asking about).

  • Will my iPod Touch connect in Germany?

    I'm going to ol' Deutschland for a two-week vacation at the end of May, and leaving my phone behind (the last time I took my phone out of country, Verizon didn't correctly change my plan, so I ended up with a $800 phone bill). I planned on bringing my new iPod Touch to use wherever WiFi permits, however it came to my attention that Europe has a different WiFi standard than North America.
    Basically, will my American iPod Touch connect to WiFi in Germany?

    It will work fine. Overseas they use more wifi channels but the iPod can use them fine.

  • Remote App on IPod Touch Connect to ITunes on Win7

    Is anyone having a problem making the Remote APP on ipod touch connect to ITunes on Win7 over WiFi? Itunes sees it alright, asks for a Passcode which the ipod supplies, considers it and then says it is invalid. I'm open to suggestions.

    Yes it is, I click on the "Remote" button, type the passcode into iTunes, it thinks for a while then comes back and says "invalid passcode". The two are communicating or iTunes wouldn't show the "Remote" button or display the passcode entry window.

  • MacBook loses wireless connection when iPod touch connects to network

    hi
    ever since upgrading to 10.5.5. on my MacBook i've had the "intermittent network connection" problems that have been described and discussed (without any real solution from what i can see) in another thread.
    PROBLEM: every couple of minutes my MacBook loses connectivity to the network - the AirPort icon still says that i'm connected, albeit with one less bar than before, but i can't connect to anywhere, not even to the wireless router - and to re-establish a connection i need to switch off AirPort, switch it back on, it will then reconnect, and after two minutes or so i have to do it all over again because the network connection drops again.
    NOVEL OBSERVATION 1: reinstalling the 10.5.5. combo system updater helped somewhat. i used to get an error in system.log about there being too many state transitions on the wireless network and about network traffic reduction measures being taken to overcome this problem, but after reinstalling the 10.5.5. combo system updater this message never appears in the logs and I get kicked off only sometimes (see what i say in point 2 below)
    NOVEL OBSERVATION 2: now my MacBook will only lose its connection to the net if i switch on my iPod Touch and switch its wireless interface on. in fact, the only way to avoid the MacBook getting constantly disconnected is to make sure that the wireless interface on the Touch is switched off in the Touch's system preferences; if I just sleep the Touch (top button) without switching off its wireless network interface first in its System Preferences, then the MacBook will keep disconnecting even while the Touch is in sleep mode (presumably the Touch keeps polling the network or something, even while it's in sleep mode).
    DIAGNOSTIC NOTE 1: I have another wireless device (my Nokia E51, which has wifi capabilities) and if I connect it to the wireless interface then the MacBook's connection isn't dropped - i.e. the MacBook only loses its wireless connection when my iPod Touch connects to the wireless network.
    DIAGNOSTIC NOTE 2: I have upgraded my wireless router (before I had a Linksys WRT-54GC, now I have a Netgear WGR614v9) but that has made no difference.
    DIAGNOSTIC NOTE 3: I have also tried altering the router's settings (i have played around a_lot with this, trying every combination I could think of - e.g. staple down particular devices to particular ip addresses, use only 802.11g versus automatic b/g, etc) but that has made no difference either.
    RANT:
    The only thing that prevents these disconnections from occurring is to keep the iPod Touch's wireless switched off, which ***** because if I'm in the kitchen I can't have it switched on to monitor my email (yes, I've no life, i hang around waiting for emails), or if I go have a lie down and want to check out stuff on the net, or to browse the iTunes music store or whatever, then I know that my connecting my iPod Touch the computer will be disconnected.
    This obviously *****, right? And a lot of people are having wireless problems with their MacBooks, right? And these problems seem to have been around for over a year, right?
    So why hasn't Apple solved this problem yet? Or am I just being melodramatic?
    Your thoughts on any or all of the above, or flames if that's your preferred method of communicating, are invited. =)
    Cheers

    Having the same problem here. As a first time mac user, Apple has certainly made a bad first impression.
    For me, the issue seems to occur when transferring files between computers that are connected to the same access point (when transferring files from wired computers on the network there is no issue). My vista laptop and every laptop I have tried has worked perfectly fine with this access point so I am 100% convinced it is the mac. Basically when I copy the files, after about 100mb, I am unable to access anything on the local network or internet until I restart Airport. The weird thing is that even though I am unable to access anything, the airport utility says it is connected. I might also note that the wireless signal strength is full.
    If I can't get this figured out in a few days, this computer is going back to the store where it came from and I will officially label myself anti-mac. This type of issue is just unacceptable for something so main stream.

  • Gprs connection between two mobile phones

    Hi
    is it possible to make a gprs connection between two mobile phones without a server(pc...)? when the answer "yes" please give me an exapmle...

    I'm not sure, I'm just connecting some facts. I'm talking about Siemens S55. It has implemented sockets (both client sockets and server sockets). The phone, when connected via GPRS has IP address (Siemens' netmonitor reports it..). But i've never tried to use server-socket on my mobile.
    So it seems that it is in fact possible on some handsets. (AFAIK nokia 6610 and similar does not support sockets...)

  • Connecting up a mobile phone to a computer (via bluetooth?)

    Hi,
    I'm looking for the best way to connect up a mobile phone to a nearby computer (wirelessly) so that they are able to communicate with each other.
    Would bluetooth be the best way?
    Would it be as simple as buying a bluetooth dongle for the computer, and writing a java application on the computer which accepts connections, and then writing a j2me application for the phone which connects to the computer? How would you find out what address the mobile phone needed to connect to?
    Also, is there a better way of doing this without the need for a j2me application on the phone, such as a phones built in web browser? If I did this how would the computer be able to send information over to the phone telling it what to display? Would it be a case of creating an index.html on the computer and the phone would be able to display that?
    Thanks for the help

    {color:#000080}Bluetooth looks good for your purpose. At the phone end, you would need a MIDlet to access an inbuilt bluetooth serial port using the btspp: protocol. At the PC end, your software will connect to the serial port corresponding to your bluetooth dongle. The two can communicate using a client-server relationship.
    That is, of course, the bare-bones outline of quite a lot of stuff. Device pairing has to be done manually, since there is no method to do this in j2me. On many handsets, BT has to be launched before running a MIDlet that requires its services. All bluetooth dongles are not created equal, neither are all bluetooth managers. So you will have to deal with a number of specifics as you progress. I am not sure on this, but I think there are a few phone models that do have bluetooth but no serial port profile, so that's another point to check out.
    AFAIK, the browser on a mobile phone cannot open local files nor access content via bluetooth -- html pages can only be viewed via the internet.
    You will need to use the javax.bluetooth and, possibly, javax.obex packages.{color}

    If you have further queries regarding the j2me part of your endeavour, you might get better response in the CLDC and MIDP forum{color}

    The USB connection provides not internet connectivity. The iPod can only connect to the internet via wifi

  • How to track down my lost ipod touch with out having mobile me as a app???

    DOES ANYBODY KNOW HOW TO TRACK DOWN A IPOD TOUCH WITH OUT HAVING MOBILE ME AS A APP?

    You cannot. Sorry.  You could try calling it via facetime, if  you have facetime, and listen for the ringing.
    BTW, typing in all caps indicates shouting, is considered rude and is difficult to read.
    Many simply do not read such posts.

  • IPod Touch connection with Vista

    My iPod touch is not recognized by Windows Vista. On the same computer the iPod video works well. I have the newest version of iTunes 4.7, which should have the driver included, but Vista keeps looking for the driver.
    Any suggestions?

    Just wanted to add one more solution to using iTouch with 32 bit version of Windows Vista as I spent the last 72 hours trying to get my daughter's iTouch to work with a new Dell Inspiron (w/ Vista Home). I tried disabling/uninstalling and reinstalling from the Device Manager as noted in previous posts in this thread. Was almost ready to throw in the towel when I did one last search for alternate solutions and found the following instructions to reinstall the drivers, but to instead of having the system look to the c:\Windows\inf or c:\windows\system 32 folders for the drivers, the path is changed to c:\program files\common files\Apple\Apple Mobile Support\Drivers, which is apparently where Vista installs the drivers to. Once I changed the path the driver properly reflected the iTouch as a USB device, and not a digital camera. Hope this helps anyone else who is having the same issue.
    Try these steps:
    1. Log in using an ADMINISTRATIVE account
    2. Verify you have the following files usbaapl.cat, usbaapl.inf & usbaapl.sys in the following directory "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers"
    3. Single left click on START
    4. Single left click on RUN
    5. Type in " devmgmt.msc " then hit Enter (Don't type in the quotes)
    6. Look for Imaging in the Device Manager window, and click on plus sign (In Vista you may not see the "Imaging" option. Look under "Portable Devices" as an alternative)
    7. Now you should see " Apple iPod " as a device underneath Imaging (or Portable Devices)
    8. Right click on " Apple iPod " then single left click on Properties
    9. Single left click on the " Driver " tab
    10. Single left click on " Update driver "
    11. Select " Install from a list or specific location "
    12. Single left click on " Include this location in the search "
    13. Paste " C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers " (Don't type in the quotes) into the box below " Include this location in the
    search "
    14. Single left click next and keep clicking through until " Apple iPod USB Driver " is detected.
    15. Start up iTunes, and see if you iPod is detected again.
    For anyone trying to copy over their music from the iTouch to a new PC running Vista, I used TouchCopy (http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/). Once I got the iTouch to be seen by iTunes you close iTunes, install TouchCopy and then start the program, it will then look for your iTouch and once you connect it it's a snap to copy the music to your iTunes library.
    Hope this helps anyone with sames Vista/iTouch issues. Good Luck!

  • IPod touch connection problem!

    My iPod touch no longer appears in iTunes when it is connected to the computer. I have tried to fix this problem in as many ways as I know but none of them have worked. So far, I've tried: Restarting my iPod, Downloading and installing the latest version of iTunes, using a different usb cable, using different usb ports, restarting my computer and stopping & starting the apple mobile device service. My iPod still charges when connected to my wall charger and the computer which I use (windows xp) still connects to my brothers iPod touch. I don't what the problem could be?! My iPod is 1 & 1/2 years old, but still works perfectly fine apart from this issue. Can anyone help?

    Think I solved/found a workaround to a similar problem, although, with Touch connecting to MacBook OS 10.5.8. Uninstalled and reinstalled fresh version of iTunes to no avail, but by wiping my Touch and restoring, the problem was solved. BUT once I downloaded a podcast episode directly from the iTunesStore same hang returned (if using force quit the iTune app shows as unresponsive, removing the usb connection immediately frees the hang, replugging rehangs). After wiping Touch and restoring, sync works fine until adding content to mobile iTunes directly on Touch. Hang returns. One more wipe/restore and now, until there is upgrade to Touch OS (3.0 [7A341]) to fix what I think is a bug, I'll only add content via iTunes on my MacBook.
