IPod Touch with Composite AV Cable: Issues
I purchased the new $50 composite AV cable when it was released a few months back. I've been using it frequently with no real issues (whenever I play a video, my iPod recognizes that it is connected to a TV and prompts me to choose whether or not to display the video on the TV). However, as of this week it no longer prompts me, and I cannot find a way to manually select "TV Out" without first being automatically prompted by my iPod. I recently installed 1.1.3 with the January upgrade. The only other thing I can think of that I've done differently recently is that I used the composite AV cable to charge an older iPod model, which I had never tried before, but I doubt that would have any affect on the cable itself. Anyone else having this problem? Why is there not a manual "TV Out" option for the iPod Touch to avoid this issue altogether?
I havent had any issues with my Apple AV composite cable. Ive been using it for the last month or so and has also worked since the 1.1.3 firmware and software upgrade. I suggest you call apple tech support you have a 1 year warrenty on those cables.

my ipod touch has a usb cable picture with an arrow pointing to the itunes logo. the ipod will not connect to a computer and is unable to be turned off as there is no red power slider when the power button is pressed. what can i do to fix this?
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.

My iPod touch is having a little issue with the volume. When I plug in my headphones the volume works fine. When there aren't any headphones plugged in, no sound comes out from my iPod. When I go to turn up the volume, it still says headphones. I tried restarting it a few times, nothing worked. I looked up many tutorials, and still nothing did the trick. Any tips?
- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset 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.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

Internet problems on my macbook pro and ipod touch with camera.
Hi,
For the last week or so I have been experiencing internet problems with my macbook and iPod touch with camera. I'll be online and clicking different news articles and suddenly the address bar will start to open a link but will not complete it. So what I do is go up to the signal bar and click turn off airport then turn it back on and that will temporarily solve the problem. Same solution on my iPod, I turn off the wifi and turn it back on. It is very frustrating for both devices. I will include as much info as possible. I have a NetGear RangeMax wireless router model WPN824v3. I was wondering if changing the wireless settings on that would solve my problem. I have the channel on 9. Mode on b and g. Security option on WPA-PSK [TKIP] with password. I would be happy for any help with this issue. Also I hope I'm following correct posting protocol. I haven't been on this forum in a while.Sig,
Thanks for the advice. I finally tried a solution after doing nothing. LoL. What I did do was change the channel the router was on from 9 to 7. I think I've done something like this in the past when I had slow internet and that worked out well too. I thought that would help and so far so good. Not an interruption so far but we shall see. To the guy or girl who expressed that they had the same problem as me I would try changing the channel of your router like I did. I will monitor the situation and see if it totally solved my problem or not and keep this thread updated. Thanks people -
How can I sync the ipod touch with windows 7 64 bit
How can I sync the ipod touch with Outlook on windows 7 64 bit?
I'm having the same problem with Windows 7, iTunes has been spotty about recognizing my iPod Touch. Now that I've updates Windows 7 with Service Pack 1 (June 2011), It won't complete a sync or a restore at all on either of my Windows 7 computers.
I have gone through every troubleshooter action recommended by Apple Support, and have not been able to improve the situation at all.
I took my Touch to the Genius Bar at my local Apple Store after trying and failing to complete a restore while troubleshooting, and it restored just fine from a Mac. Unfortunately, it now gives me an error meesage (Incompatible device) half way through an attempted sync, or iTunes simply freezes.
I even tried removing the Windows SP1, but that was a mess, as my display went all whacky and iTunes crashed immediately upon startup.
The Windows 7 OS ***** in general, particularly with compatibility issues, and not just for Apple products.
Does anyone know how to remedy this situation?
I'm so frustrated and have wasted so much time on this issue that I'm going to throw it all out the window!

Has anyone tried to use their ipod touch with the Sony DAV-IS system's docking station. I am able to get sound out but no video on TV. The station is connected to the Sony TV with a video cable. Thanks
If this product was made for the iPod video (5th Gen) then it probably won't work

I am not able to sync my ipod touch with itunes.
Hi,
Whenever i try to sync my ipod touch with itunes. I get the an error "The ipod could not be synced because the sync session failed to start".
The sync process could not be started.
I am facing these issues from the day when i upgraded my ipod touch to ios 5.0.1
itunes version on my PC: 10.5.1.42
Operating system: Windows XP SP2
Please let me know how can i overcome this problem.Take the old hard drive and try one of the data recovery programs like Data Rescue 3 and others.
Apple didn't in the past support re download of purchased material.
And there are so many ways to backup data, clone a drive, archive, from the free to the built-in to the more expensive.
I keep the OS on one drive, media files and data on another drive, and a good 1.5TB drive today costs $109. Paragon has backup, clone (makes a full boot drive, not an 'image' such as Acronis or Ghost) so you can use it almost like a daily or weekly mirror.
Depends on the software and data lost and cost of recovery programs and services, but it may be possible. Put the drive in a USB case perhaps and a new drive to recover the files to. -

How Do I Restore A Replacement iPod Touch With the Backup From A Previous iPod Touch?
I recently received a replacement iPod Touch because of hardware issues with my previous one. I managed to back up my last iPod Touch with iCloud, I also recall using iCloud to restore it from backup after I first updated to iOS 5. All I'm looking to do is to restore everything exactly as it was (app data etc) on my last iPod before I had it replaced. Yet, when I attempt to restore it from back up, it restores with the wrong back up.
See if the lnk given here helps:

I have an Ipod touch with a genuine Apple docking station. Lately when I connect my system to my home stereo, there is a hum that I never noticed before. When I connect the system directly to my stereo, there is no hum. Is there a solution, other than buying a new docking station?
This makes sense to me. I think the issue is your misunderstanding. If you purchased an item, your Apple ID becomes tied to that permanently. So when you try to update that app, you need the password to the ID that 'OWNS' that application.
Also, I suspect you have a different ID signed into the device, which is why you can't buy with your own. That article listed shows how to change the signed in account.

How to track your ipod touch with serial number?
Well i lost my ipod touch and I don't know how to find it. Is there anyway to track my ipod touch with my serial number.
Here is Apple article:
Reporting a lost or stolen Apple product
While Apple might be able to get information when the iPod is connected to iTunes, there would be privacy issues with revealing it to anybody who claimed it was stolen. Just think what would happen if you sold the iPod and later claimed it was stolen or lost. -
I have just got the new iPod Touch for christmas. I am now wondering when a docking station will come out for the new iPod Touch with the new lightning connection. I have not been able to find a docking station that fits the iPod Touch without having to buy the adapter(the adapter does not allow the iPod to be charged)
When will a docking station come out for the new iPod Touch?
Olivia DaveyYou would have to ask the makers of the docking stations that question. Belkin has a dock now that uses Apple's Lightning cable:
http://www.belkin.com/us/F8J057-Belkin/p/P-F8J057
so all it basically does is provide a stand and pass through the headphone jack. There's at least one other dock here:
http://www.thelightningdock.com/products/iphone-5-dock
If you're referring to Apple's Universal Dock, there have been no indications that they will make any new dock, though of course none of us here know their plans for future products.

How do i use 2 ipod touches with 1 itunes account?
how do i use 2 ipod touches with 1 itunes account? can they share apps and music etc. I'm not very good at any tech so advise would be much appreciated.
Yes. You can sync an unlimited number of iDvies that you control to one iTunes library/account. If using the same iTunes library on the same comutr just make sure that yu go to the ap. music and other pane for the iPod in iTunes and select sycn selected items. Not the the whole library. That way each iPod can have it own contents.
