Ipod touch needs to be physically near router to get WiFi?

can ipod touch be 'fixed' so i don't have to be physically near the router to get WiFi?

Only if you buy a mi-fi device and subscribe to a 3G or 4G mi-fi service. Put "mi-fi" into your search engine to find providers.

I have a first generation ipod touch. I use a wireless router to get on the internet. My connection has frozen and I can not get out of a google search screen. Any help is appreciated. Ray.

I have a first generation ipod touch. I use a wireless router to get my internet connection. It is frozen on opening up a website and will not release. Even when I power down and restart it goes back to the same failed connection. Any ideas greatly appreciated. Ray.

- Try resetting the iPod. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Go to Settings>Safari and delete cookies, cach and history.

You say you have iOS 7 beta. If you are a developer you have access to the private OS 7 developer's forum
iOS 7 Developer forum- Apple Developer
Otherwise you are on your own since you have a bootleg copy

If you weren't able to sync the purchases to a computer previously and now your iPod needs to be restored so you can't sync it now, then you may be out of luck and will need to purchase your content again. Officially Apple does not allow redownloads of purchased items other than iPhone/iPod touch applications and iBooks. The official statement of their policy can be found here, among other places.
You can try contacting iTunes Store Customer Service (select the "Music Purchases" or "Video Purchases" category, as appropriate, then "Lost or Missing Items". You'll find either an "Express Lane" button - just follow the instructions to get to the contact form - or an "Email Us" button) ") and explaining what happened. Reportedly in some cases Apple has allowed redownloading on a one-time basis. But don't count on it.
Good luck.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

HT1459 Whenever I try to activate my 4th generation iPod Touch bought today, via my home router (Asus) which has a good signal, I get the warning: "Your iPod Touch could not be activated because the activation server cannot be reached." Very frustrating.

Whenever I try to activate my 4th generation iPod Touch bought today, via my home router (Asus) which has a good signal, I get the warning: "Your iPod Touch could not be activated because the activation server cannot be reached." Very frustrating. When I try to activate it via iTunes on my HP laptop, it won't do it either. Very frustrated and unimpressed.

You are running into the activation lock.
iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7
You have to either enter the Apple/iCloud ID and password in order to activate the iPod for use. Or you can try to dissassociate the iPod for that account by:

If you can't do that you have a nice, thin but expensive brick

Try manually entering/searching for your wifi access point under the "Other" option. Also, if you have lots of devices connected to your wifi, you may have reached your limit. (e.g. the airport express has a max of 10 while the basestation may have 50. Check your packiging on whatever router you have, may help.)

I lost a lot of tracks while syncing my ipod touch with iTunes. I have managed to get some of them back with a free download, but iTunes will not let me dowload whole albums which I have paid for. It does recognise that they have been purchased. What do n

As I've already said to get this far: I have lost a lot of tracks while syncing my iPod Touch with iTunes. I have managed to get free downloads of some of the single tracks, but when I try to download entire albums the system informs me that I have already purchased them and a pop-up window informs me I can get them back from my "Purchased" file. I would not be trying to dowload them again if they were anywhere on the iPod, would I? The other problem seems to be that with single tracks I don't know before I hit the purchase button if I have picked it from the right album and I have had to pay for it again.
I feel that I have been totally ripped off by iTunes and, apart from ranting on this forum, I don't seem to be able to let my feelings known. It's like a guy from my local record store coming round and nicking my albums and telling me that it's tough!
The point here is folks, that it was syncing two Apple sites which caused the loss of these tracks and from what I've read elsewhere this is a regular fault. And please don't tell me that it's my fault for having a pc. Apple shouldn't sell a product for pc, when it doesn't work on pc!

- Are you saying that they are not listed in your Purchased section?
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
- Are they listed in your Puchases history when you log into your account on your computer?
- Are they still available now for purchase? If not then you are out of luck
If they are still available and listed in your Puchase History then contact iTunes

I want to give my old iPod touch to a friend. How do I get my Apple ID off of it so he can buy his own music and apps?

I want to give my old iPod touch to a friend. How do I get my Apple account ID off of it so he can use his own password and account?

Unless you want to go through the full routine of deleting the Apple ID and any personal information...and keep in mind, all content is owned by the Apple ID used to download it so nothing on there can be updated.
Go to Settings > iTunes and App Stores > Apple ID and remove the ID.
Go to Settings > iCloud or any other place you will have links to your own account and remove the links.
Go to Settings > Mail, Calendars and Contacts and remove all account information.
Go to Settings > Messages and remove all account information
Go to Settings > WiFi and remove all account information.
And so on.

Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.

I set up my sons ipod touch with my apple id and he is getting text messages from my iphone

I set up my son's ipod touch with my apple id and he is getting text messages from my Iphone. How can I set up Imessage from his email account instead of my email/phone #?

You can go to Settings>Messages>Send and Receive and uncheck the phone number and delete your email address. You can add his own email address. The only way to delete the phone number is to use an Apple ID for Messages that is not associated with an iPhone. You can change it by Go to Settings>Messages>Apple ID and sign out and sign in with the other ID

The Touch is functionally a small iPad.

That's true ONLY if you limit yourself to iTMS purchases. iCloud does not store photos or anything else that the device owner created.
