    For wifi
    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?

    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.

  • My ipod touch isnt working ?

    THE DAY IT STOPPPED WORKING I PUT ON CHARGE LIKE ALMOST FOR A DAY AND THE NEXT DAY I USED IT FOR ABOUT 5 MINS. WHEN I LEFT IT AND CAME BACK IT TURNED OFF AGAIN AND NEITHER WAS IT DISPLAYING ANYTHING. I PUT FOR CHARGE AGAIN FOR ABOUT 3 DAYS CONTINOUSLY BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. I NEED MY PICTURES. AND I EVEN TRIED HOLDING THE HOME AND LOCK BUTTON TOGETHER FOR 10 SECONDS BUT IT JUST DOESNT RESPOND. I REALLY NEED YOUR HELP IF POSSIBLE. PLEASE RESPOND.

    Hi,
    If you still have the warranty on this ipod, then the best way is to call Apple and explain them what is going on with your ipod, they will tell to send it to them (they will send u a box and prepaid shipping label, so you dont have to pay anything), when they receive it they will fix it or replace it*.
    If you dont have a warranty on it anymore, first try to do the master reset on it, but dont forget to do the backup first.
    Upgrading to a newer version of the firmware may also help.
    Hope this will help you,
    Good Luck!

    iTunes never displays the iPod in the left pane?
    iTunes is shipped with a "helper application" called the "iPod Service" that runs and is used by iTunes to communicate with the iPod device. This service may be disabled.
    If your system is Microsoft Windows XP and you are logged in as an Administrator:
    1. Quit iTunes and, if your iPod is currently connected to your computer, safely remove it using the system tray application to manage removable devices.
    2. Right click on "My Computer"
    3. Select "Manage"
    4. In the "Computer Management" window, left pane (tree view), follow this path:
    +Computer Management (local) > Services and Applications > Services+.
    5. In the right pane, scroll down to "iPod Service" and double click it.
    6. If the service is listed as "Disabled" and "Stopped," change to "Manual" and "Start" it. ("Manual" will cause it to start when iTunes starts and "Start" starts the service right now.)
    7. Close "Computer Management"
    8. Restart iTunes and wait for it to completely come up.
    9. Reconnect your iPod.

    Alright, so my ipod touch stopped working, but I can still connect it to itunes, but my friend gave me his old nano. I was wondering how I could get my more updated songs from my ipod touch onto th nano. My laptop crashed whitch had all my new music, and im afraid if I sync my Ipod touch to the desktop with all my old songs, ill lose all my newer ones which I dont want to happen because I want them on my nano. Im sorry for the confusing topic im just so lost.

    All you have to do is connect your new iPod to the computer that has the library for your old iPod.
    When iTunes comes up, click on your new iPod under Devices.
    At the top of the Summary Page click Music.
    Click Synch Music.
    Do the same thing for Photos, Apps, Movies and so on...
    Now just synch the iPod.
