IPod Touch wifi exchange mail troubles

Hi
I have a iPod touch 32Gb with 3.1.2 firmware and I am having trouble with the wifi. The exchange mail works fine and dandy until I put my works proxy details into the wifi config. Once the settings are put in the exchange mail doesnt work !!
When I had my old iPod touch with 2.2.1 everything worked like a charm..
Any ideas ??
P.S Also my iPhone does the same
Many Thanks in advance

I got mine working finally. It turned out to be a problem on the Exchange end. My account had an alias. The long ID I normally used was different than the account ID.
As for iPod configuration, I ended up using the Exchange Account set up. Everything was pretty much the basic stuff. The only thing I had to watch out for in the Advanced tab was the port setting. Our outgoing server used a different port than the Apple default. I didn't have to touch the IMAP Patah Prefix. Also, does your Exchange server require IMAP over SSL? If so, is that certificate valid?

Ipod touch Out going mail problems

Prior to downloading 2.0 for my Ipod touch I had no troubles sending emails via my verizon DSL. I put 2.0 up on the ipod I can not send emails. I have tried to redo the setings, but the ones that show are correct. I have searched the ipod mail help site and can not find any ideas to resolve the problem. Any thoughts?

This probably won't be helpful but you can try restarting it, when you have it on hold the home screen button and the power button at the same time and keep them held down until you see the apple logo and if it asks you: "do you want to power off?" don't pay an =y attention to it

Ipod touch wifi not as good as before

my ipod touch wifi cant get the internet from across the hallway, but it used to get it from a block away. I tryed all of the things on YouTube, but none of them worked. Please Help!

Did you try:
resetting the iPod?
Resetting network setting?
Restoring the iPod from backup?
Restoring the iPod to factory defaults?
Saying that you did what was specified on an undefined YouTube vidoe provides us with no information on what you did,

Ipod touch wifi range

why is my ipod touch wifi range reduced after upgrading to ios 5.0

I noticed the same thing with my iPod Touch 4gen. when I updated to ios 4.3.1. I just installed 4.3.2, and its too early to tell. I made a change on my router which seemed to improve connection reliability, but not every router has this setting. The setting is "Interference Mitigation" which was set to Auto. I was told that changing it to None can improve connection reliability. Sounds counter-intuitive, but it seemed to help.

IPod touch 2.0 Mail crashing

Hi,
I've sucessfully created a MobileMe and Exchange account on my 2.0 iPod touch. Everything worked fine for a while. But now Mail crashes every time I try to open it. When I launch Mail it starts refreshing/syncing mails (you see the spinning wheel) and after a while it switches back to the app screen. As soon as I deactivate the mail option from the Exchange account, Mail works as expected.
Anyone else having this?
Regards,
Alex

Hi,
I had this multiple times. Two times I was able to fix this in "just" remove MobileMe and the Exchange account. But this time the problem continues to exist. I've worked around this in using IMAP for E-Mail and Exchange for Contacts/Appointments. However since we're using PostPath instead of "real" Exchange contacts won't sync anyway.
Since I don't want to restore my whole iPod once a day I will stay with the IMAP workaround and hope that this will be fixed in 2.0.1

IPod Touch - WiFi - SSID Broadcast Works/SSID No Broadcast Doesn't Work

This is maddening in so many different ways:
I have two (2) 2nd Generation iPod Touch 8Gb products. Both are nearly identical in every way -- how they connect, OS, Library, similar Apps (but not the same all the time), etc.
iPod Touch "A" works flawlessly. No issues, no problems, no complaints
iPod Touch "B" started behaving badly by first loosing my WPA security but recognizing my home network. Strong password creation was a hassle but I got cleaver. Over time, it got worse to the point that it would not even recognize the existence of my 802.11g home network.
CAVEATS 1) We live in a rural area and on my property, not another network can be found. 2) Plenty of 2.4 Ghz stuff around including other wireless computers but... 3) This is my profession and I am flummoxed but have ideas....
FINDINGS: 1) iPod "B" works fine in the public space. All wireless networks work just fine and dandy. 2) I turn on my home network SSID BROADCAST and this iPod works fine (after being set up again). 3) Turn off SSID Broadcast and once this iPod sleeps or is turned off/on, no more network but go to any place that has a public broadcast SSID and no security and it's fine again... 4) No matter what I have and what I do, iPOD "A" works flawlessly.
WHAT I HAVE DONE: 1) made sure that I have plenty of DHCP scope -- yup. 2) Checked my leases - when connected I see perfectly valid MACs and leases without incident. 3) Check for overlapping or conflicts in IP Address allocation and MAC addresses (you never know...) - no problems there. 4) Quadruple checked "A" vs. "B" settings -- identical. 5) Dumped the entire flash and OS and started with a clean slate -- same issues with no apps, music, photos, movies -- nada... just a raw iPod like it came out of the box... same problem 6) Asked Apple to replace it as it's under warranty -- done. 7) Started testing again as a clean slate and found that it worked... replacing the iPod did the trick...
So, I "RESTORE" the iPOD to garner all the hard work that was put into it -- contacts, settings, etc. I "SYNCH" the iPOD to recover my angel's precious photos, apps, movies, music.... I return it back to it's originally desired state EXCEPT that one must completely reconfigure things like networking by hand -- OK.
It's back to normal, as desired, in the configuration we want and it WORKS!!!! Albeit... only for a day... and now we are back to where we started -- again...
iPod "A" works flawlessly and the new "B" is back to it's same old tricks --
OK - What does a restore do anyway? Is there some small pile of firmware that writes over the fresh load from OS? In order to preserve my contacts and other things a restore supports, did I uncover the super secret bug that Apple will refuse to acknowledge? Can I still say that I hate iTunes without being flamed a thousand deaths? Is there a diagnostic easter egg I can try?
And before I started this soliloquy -- I watched my functioning iPod "B" go to sleep with a working home network... only to wake her from her slumber... tuned out - with Not Connected living in her Wi-Fi field.... <sigh - simply maddening>
The only thing that sets these two apart are the nuances associated with configs that are part of the user's own personal interface desires and resident app input (contacts, calendar, etc...).

First off -- thank you all for replying and providing your insight, stories, and findings with your own iPod Touch, MAC, and iPhone WiFi fun...
You are all wonderful contributors.
Just to be clear, as others have mentioned -- this is not a feature and we should not have to tolerate it. This iPod, like the other one and yours too, once worked flawlessly and then continued to degrade to a point of not functioning according the 802.11g ieee standard. Something that has been in development for over 10 years and has been an adopted standard in consumer electronics for more than 7 years -- an eternity in this industry.
To be clear, I performed TWO ultimate resets -- completely wiping the firmware and OS of the original hardware and tested a completely wiped iPod Touch to no avail and the second "reset" was a brand new replacement -- right out of the box -- under warranty. No network resets necessary. The new iPod worked as expected without any original data loaded. Once a backup was "restored," and the iPod was synch'd with the library of choice, then the troubles started again. The networking does not restore -- you have to build a secure network from scratch. And again, the "A" iPod exhibits none of this odd behavior.
It is a testament that Apple has a problem in code when other iPods running similar OS behave the same. The reason that I mention the geeky standard above is because we should not have to broadcast our SSID for this to work -- it's an open standard, not something proprietary. We should not have to conform to "work around" solutions. And, yes, NOT broadcasting SSID is part of the entire package of sound security. I have to strongly disagree with all the nay-sayers. You don't go walking around the streets with money hanging out of your pockets or your wallet sticking out of your shirt pocket for a reason -- but I bet that you have cash on you and I can find it pretty quickly. It's why purse snatching is a crime of violence and rampant in larger cities and pick-pockets use finesse. One is easy pickings for anyone to try and the other requires tools and skills. If you don't flaunt it, the low level threat is removed.
As for strong security, the option for WEP is not an option. I use multiple levels of acceptable stronger encryption, logging, limited DHCP scopes, MAC controls at times, stateful firewall controls, and other radio tricks of the trade. My only failings is having to pander to the lowest common denominator within my home network.
Anyway, I spent a bit more time surfing and find this problem ubiquitous in 2.2.1 and forward. Something is amiss at Apple. All my Window based products work just fine (as does my Wii).
Keep those cards and letters coming folks.

ITunes Store via iPod Touch WiFi download for Digital Booklet

I purchased Drastic Fantastic/KT Tunsall's new music Deluxe Version. I note that the Digital Booklet extras did not download to the iPod touch via the WiFi download. Nor did they download on their own when I did the synch with my laptop. Finally I went into my iTunes account via my laptop and viewed my purchases. Sure enough they were purchased. I then use the check for purchases on iTunes and it still didn't catch the missing booklets. Finally I went into my account to report the trouble and they started to download.
Are the booklets too big to come directly to the iPodTouch via Wifi? Are they supposed to download later on your computer when you go to the iTunes Store?

All videos and digital booklets are downloaded separately after you have synced your ipod touch to the computer and your itunes library. Every album that has a digital booklet states this at the very bottom of the album list on wifi ITMS. When you try to sync a digital booklet to the ipod touch you get a error message stating that "Name of booklet cannot be synced to the ipod touch." Its not a size issue just simply that they are not compatible with the ipod touch.

IPod Touch wifi print server?

Hi, just got an iPod Touch and I love it. I brought it to work today and the wifi connections are all locked except for one. Its called "print server", should I be able to access the internet through a print server? It does not work when I try to open safari, e-mail, youtube, etc. The wireless icon is shown and says I have full service. Thanks for any help!
Jacob

A print server is usually dedicated to service a printer or printers on an internal network. You cannot access the internet through it under normal conditions. If you tap the blue > next to the network name, you will probably see a 169.x.x.x IP address which is a self assigned address when a valid IP address is not assigned.
If you really want to connect to your work network, you will need to get the specifics from your IT admin.

IPod Touch WiFi - Costs

Hello! I have an iPod touch and I was wondering if there were any costs on top of paying for the actual applications itself. For example do you pay for using WiFi when checking e-mail? When using applications such as AIM that connect to WiFi?
To sum it up, do you get charges on your Apple Account for using WiFi on your iPod touch?

Hi,
There are no charges for WiFi as such, unlike cellphone network subscription charges for instance. You will not get charges on your Apple account.
WiFi access in certain public places may need to be paid for but you would be fully aware of the costs involved before you used it and is implemented in various ways.
A lot of public WiFi is free, at certain restaurants and libraries for example.
WiFi access at home will simply be using you own internet connection via a wireless router, obviously the range is limited to your home area.
Regards,
Dud.

Ipod touch Wifi problem... Please Help :(

Hi. Ive just recently started having trouble with my ipod touch. I cant stand more then 10 yrds away witout it detecting my wifi. All my other devices work fine. Ive tried reseting my ipods and making it back to its normal form and resetting the network and still no result. Ive also turned it off for a few mins and still no results . I recently did though get a little crack on my ipod touch maybe 2 or 3 weeks ago on the top left part of the screen I dont know if that has anything to do with it or what... Idk what I can do. Could someone give me some advice. Should I go to an apple store today? How much might it cost to get this fixed?

Here is Apple's price list. I suspect a hardware problem and it may be related to what caused the cracked screen.

You may find that a third-party place like the following is less expensive:

1st gen iPod touch wifi connection issue, grayed out wifi area in settings

I have a first generation iPod touch and I'm having difficulty connectiong to wifi. It tells me there is "no wifi" and the wifi area in settings is grayed out. I have never encountered this problem in the seven months I've owned this device. My wifi is currently being used by the other three devices that normally share it with my iPod, and they're running just fine as usual. I've already tried restoring my iPod, as well as updating my iTunes to the newest possible software, then restarting the computer. I've looked through all of Apple's troubleshooting guides, to no avail. Any tips from people who've had the same issue or actually understand technology? All help is greatly appreciated!

IPod Touch WIFI Signal Fluctuates After Upgrading to iOS4

I upgrade to iOS4, and now my iPod Touch 3rd gen's WIFI signal fluctuates now matter how close I am to my Airport. I can be right next to the Airport and the signal will go back and forth from one bar to three bars. Never happened with OS 3.1.3.

For those having Wi-Fi issues... What level of encryption are you using on your routers? And is your router at full power? I'm not really having any Wi-Fi issues, I'm using WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES] and I switch my router to full power after I started having the iOS4 batter problem. (it was on "Neighbor Friendly" Mode). I was worried that a weaker signal would contribute even more to the already existing battery drain and I'm figuring that having the encryption on the highest level is also affecting the battery as well, but I haven't tested the difference.
Using WEP + hidden SSID at home (I have some devices that choke on WPA). Open WiFi access with authentication at work. Router signal boosted from 42mW to 70mW using Tomato firmware.
Also, if you're using a Pre-N router, disabling "Neighbor Friendly" mode means you're using a ton of 2.4GHz channels. This prevents any neighbors near your home from using WiFi, because you've stolen all of the available channels. I had to set up my sister-in-law on Wireless-A, because her backyard neighbor hates her, and turned off "Neighbor Friendly" mode on his router. What a pain.
