Is it okay to clean your iPod Touch with just a washcloth and clean water?

I was just wondering if cleaning my iPod Touch with just water and a washcloth would be alright.  Is there something better to use thats free?

A soft lint-free cloth is all that's recommended and usually all that is necessary. If you have some sort of material on the iPod that you can't get off with just a dry cloth, then you can use a damp - and by "damp" I really do mean damp; if you can squeeze any water out if it, it's too wet - cloth for just that material. It will be up to you to make sure that no liquid gets into the iPod.

    Try settings -- messages -- send & recieve and see if your email and phone number are in there and if there is only a check mark next to your email address.  If so just check off your phone number and try that.

    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

  • How can i track down a stolen ipod touch with just my serial number

    how can i track down a stolen ipod touch with just my serial number

    You can't. The SN will only help identify the iPod as yours IF it is recovered.
    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it.

  • My question is the my daughter has an ipod touch with alot of music and games on it, but the computer that had itunes in it and all the apps and music is now gone. How can I transfer all her games and music her new computer without loosing her stuff?

    My daughter has an ipod touch with alot of games and music on it. The computer it was synced to is forever gone and on her new computer some of the games dont show up along with her music. She is worried if she connects it to her new computer all will be lost. Is there anyway for this to not happen? The ipod is on its last life due to a cracked screen, and as for the games she has spent money on them such as smurf village and others. When i looked at game center on my phone about less than half of that game showed up. Is there anyway to fix these things before its to late and eveything is gone forever?
    THANK YOU.

    See Here for
    Frozen or unresponsive iPod touch
    The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
    Restart..  Reset..  Restore...
    Try this First... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the iPod Off... ( if it isn’t already )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... (But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
    Turn the iPod On...

  • I have an older Ipod touch with 4.2.1 and cannot be updated any further, how do I install apps on it now?  so far every app I have tried says I need an updated IOS.  This sounds like I now have an apple product paper weight.

    I have an older Ipod touch with 4.2.1 and cannot be updated any further, how do I install apps on it now?  so far every app I have tried says I need an updated IOS.  This sounds like I now have an apple product paper weight unless I want to run out and buy the latest and greatest overpriced apple product. 

    Are you willing to buy a newer iPod? How about the 4g @ 16gb for $199* usd or the 5g @ 32gb for $299*.

  • How do you update your Ipod touch with out losing all my apps, music, movies, and pics?

    How do I update my ipod touch with out losing all my apps,music,pics ect?

    Just do the update on your syncing computer. All the items should be in your iTunes library or, for synced photos, on the computer.  The items will be synced back to the iPod during a latter stage of the update.

  • Can you sync your iPod touch with computer 1 for computer 1's iCal items and also sync the same iPod touch with computer 2 for computer 2's music, apps, etc. items?

    I have a MacBook Pro through my college, and I have all my iCal items on that computer, but I have all my music, apps, etc. on a PC desktop that is my personal home computer.  I am wondering if I can sync my iPod touch with my MacBook for the iCal items and also with my PC for the music and such without loosing either of the two when trying to sync with the other computer?

  • 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.

  • Is there any way to track my ipod touch with just its serial number?

    I recently lost my ipod touch at a friends house, and we have been looking for almost a week now to find it. It may have been stolen, as there were other people at his house, but I can't be sure. It does not have i cloud installed. So according to all sources ive checked, there is no way to track it. If there is no way to track the device with the serial number, is there a way to remotely install i cloud on to my ipod? it has been gone for almost a week like i said, so it is unllikely that it has any power left. I know that most likely the answer to both these questions is no, but I dont want to give up yet.

    - The SN will only identify the iPod as your if it is recovered.
    - Since you can't contact the iPod you can't install anything one.
    - Report to police
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod.
    - Look for it the old fashioned way, like if you lost your wallet.
    - Apple will not do anything.

  • Sync iPod Touch with PC at home and Mac at work?

    So I'm getting a free iPod Touch from work (Yay!). Is it possible to sync the calendar and contacts with Outlook (or another program) on my home PC, and also with iCal and Address Book on my Mac at work?

    This hasn't been my experience actually. I can plug in my iPod Touch to my home Mac, and sync the calendars there, then I can plug into my work PC and sync my work calendar. The only thing I'm having trouble with, is that Outlook on my PC will not merge the other calendars, so if I enter a personal appoitnment on my home Mac, it will show up in a separate calendar on my iPod Touch, and not at all on Outlook on my PC... Not ideal, but at least my iPod Touch seems to have everything on it.

    iPod touch
    To clean iPod touch, unplug all cables and turn off iPod touch (press and hold the Sleep/Wake button, and then slide the onscreen slider). Then use a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Avoid getting moisture in openings. Don’t use window cleaners, household cleaners, aerosol sprays, solvents, alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives to clean iPod touch.
    Hope this helps,

  • Is it okay to charge my iPod Touch with my wall charger on a regular basis?

    I like to use my iPod Touch at night before I go to sleep but since my computer is not in my room my iPod Touch is usually charging with the wall charger I bought (from Apple) for hours and usually overnight and its becoming that that is the only way I'm charging my iPod because at night that's the only time I'm using it.
    So my question is, is it okay to charge my iPod like that? I've been noticing that when I turn my iPod on and use it, it'll say there is half the battery left but usually when I turn it on the next day it says there is only 10% remaining and it's like that everyday.

    Yes, it's okay.
    You should let it run down completely every feew months to somewhat "calibrate" the battery meter though.
