Ipod Touch drops off network all the time

I am using a 2nd generation Ipod Touch to control Itunes on a Mac Mini. I am using the "Remote" application on my Ipod. I do not use the Ipod for anything else but remote control. There is no music on my Ipod.
I have the "stay connected" switched ON under remote settings in my Ipod. But almost every time I pick the Ipod up to use it it says:
"Can not connect to the local Network"
Then it generally does connect in a few seconds after I push a button. But sometimes I have to reboot the Mac Mini to get it to work. (I am not sure why this helps becasue I am using my Netgear Modem/router for my Network - not the Mac Mini....). My music library is on the Mac Mini.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

- Connect the iPod to your computer. If iTunes sees the iPod then restore the iPOd.
- Next see if recovery mode will allow iTunes to see the iPod so your can restore it. For recovery mode see:
iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
- Then try DFU mode

- Then, let the battery fully drain and then charge and try again.
- Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

IPod touch is fully charged all the time

Hi!
I have a Sony FM/AM Clock Radio (Model ICF-CS10iP) that plays iPod/iPhone, and when I connect the iPod to the radio in order to play it, the battery is recharged very fast, so that my iPod is always fully recharged. In other words, I don't have time to spend my time listening to it with the earphones, consuming the battery till it runs out, then I would have to recharge again. It simply is full all the time. Is there any problem in not having this cicle of consuming and recharging? Thanks!

Yes. For maximum battery life, Apple recommends fully discharging/charging the iPod at least once a month.

IPod Mini continually skips tracks all the time every half a second!

My iPod Mini continually skips tracks all the time every half a second. The only thing that stops it is if you press pause but once you press play off it goes again. This means noi music is able to be played because it's always skipping. The menu button works as does the backlight if you hold the menu button down. The enter button works and the touch pad navigation also works. Both skip buttons have no effect on the unstoppable skipping. Can anybody help or at least verify the problem with other users of simular problems and if they were able to fix them simply, without having to go to an Apple dealer (it's out of warrenty i think)Any help would be appreciated.

After updating iTunes this week Windows 8 recognizes the iPod but does not offer an option to open with iTunes. iTunes does not recognize iPod Touch. Have followed all the steps but without success. Is there a solution with iTunes?

I followed all the instructions on the suggested page. Many files in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\ and C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\ could not be deleted. Message said ""Cannot delete files: It is being used by another person or program"' but could not find iPodService.exe in task manager (also, the "Cannont delete ... " did not mention iPodService.exe).
Deleted all that I could. Reinstalled iTunes. Still same result. iTunes and computer both recognize my old iPod. Only the computer recognizes iPod Touch.

I am not able to download any new music to my ipod touch. It has all the updates.

Is your music from Itunes? If it's not that's probably why

Can I leave my ipod plugged in and on all the time?

That will degrade the battery. Apple recommends that you fully discharge and fully charge monthly.

My Macbook drive was replaced. If I sync my IPod Touch I'll lose all the old data on my IPod. Can I restore my iPod data to my computer?

My Macbook drive was replaced. If I sync my IPod Touch I'll lose all the old data on my IPod. What do you do when you buy a new computer or have a new hard drive? Can I restore my iPod data to my computer?

See this article for details: How to back up your data and set up as a new device
Or do this:
Make sure your Mac is authorized in iTunes. Disable autosync in itunes, connect your ipod, right click on it in the device list and choose backup.
This will save data, pictures and settings to itunes. See what's included in this backup here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
Transfer your purchases the same way to copy all apps and bought media from the Store to your MacBook.
Set up at least one contact and event on your computer to be able the merge your calendars and contacts after your ipod got wiped during the first sync.
The rest of the data can be restored from the backup you made.
Restoring: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in itunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

Win 7 set up and running OK,but after go back from OSX the wireless net work stuck at identification cause the window working without Internet.Can we fix it or I must use Windows off line all the time?
I already contact Microsoft 2 times for activations.Hope I can fix from Apple instead.

Ok....Got "Problem 2 and 4" solved....still trying to figure out this pop up everytime I click something...it's crazy how fast the pop up blinks...maybe once or 3 blinks then nothing till you close the window, then pop up then disappears...then click something
else and pop up then gone....never seen this before...ive seen it when you tried to get online which turned out to be a virus on a customers cpu I worked on some years ago, I think it has something to do with the deleted files that I spoke of on last
post...I notice it does it on start up as well.....think something is trying to install but not sure. Need to figure out where the appdata or start up folder and see whats in there....maybe it's in there.......so I might wait to see how it acts in the next
couple days for "Problem 1"...but other than that it's running like a champ...so right now I just want to get the pop up windows to stop........thx again for everyone's help on this.

Airport losing my Network all the time

Good morning,
I have set my network several months ago, it was working perfectly fine in the beginning. Now, this is what is happening all the time: after about half an hour being online, it seems like I am not hooked to the internet anymore. The Airport light is green, the signal level is at the highest, the status says "connected", but if I try to access a page, the bar is blank. No other networks show but if I manually type another network that I know of and that is not password protected, it connects to it, and then I can access my page with no problem.
This is not my network, I don't see why I should use a neighbor's network when mine is just set in the same room as my desktop, and above all why I can't catch it with the Airport that seems to say everything is there.
If I want to go back then to my own network, it has disappeared from the list, and then it says it can join back. It takes sometimes half hours before I can join back as if nothing had happened, and then some time later it does it again.
Any idea why it would do that? is my airport box defective?

Thank you for your help, Tesserax, I really appreciate it because I admit I am very annoyed (it is getting worse today, or I am less patient because of my own moods, but it seems to disrupt me from working so much).
I have many other networks, but mine is always with the strongest signal. Sometimes it drops to 50% (the highest is around 85%) and the noise increases (the highest has been 40%), and I see no of the described reasons why. All the other networks that appear are all around signal 44% and below
The only electric cable is the computer cable and the cable from the computer to the printer, could it be that making the interference? there is no way I can hook these somewhere else! The airport is hooked to the modem box and that's where the cable is hooked to my home, so I also do not see how I can avoid having those together. Maybe there is something I haven't understood there.
Also I have not understood how I can change anything in the airport. All those numbers seem to be automatically generated, and I don't see where you have a menu that gives you control to how it is set, if I have to reset something, whether it is in the System's preferences (network) or in the Internet Connect, I don't see any setting menu.

Can iPod Shuffle repeat one song all the time?

LG Cosmos Touch VN270 turns on all the time and kills battery life - how to stop this??

I lock the phone using the lock button on the side but then I'll notice that the display will come on spontaneously (an hour later or ten minutes later...it varies). I notice there is some symbol flashing (arrows and tiny cell phone icon at top of display) and when I unlock it I will see a screen for browsing and downloading. This is super annoying because I have to keep recharging the phone even though I barely use it. And I can't find a setting to shut whatever it is off that keeps making it do that.
It's true that the display dims a minute later but if this is happening all day then it wastes the battery. I can tell because I'm recharging the thing every other day, which I'd really rather not have to do.
Solutions??

Just to add another voice ... I've had the same issue.
Due to my terms of employment I keep the phone on overnight. Between midnight and 6:00am the backlight comes on and stays on, even though the timer is set to 30 seconds. Once, and only once, I left the volume turned up, instead of vibrate-only, and received detailed instructions on how to set up the email feature. That was not a friendly way to wake up. If I see the back light on, or the Download screen, I can shut it off with the screen lock button. Sometimes it comes back on later. This definitely kills the battery by morning.
I have worked with various Customer Support people who knew nothing about this issue. They have walked me through the remove battery, reset and reactivate phone, etc. to no success. VZW was kind enough to replace the phone with the same model. The second phone has the same issue.
The local Verizon store would only tell me to please contact the Customer Service number. The corporate account rep at work has been a black hole, so far.
