Is the ipod touch i'm about to buy stolen?

i'm thinking of buying a second hand ipod touch 5th generation. How do i make sure it isn't stolen?

You can look here:
Report Stolen iPod | Stolen Lost & Found Online
But there is really no way to tell unless the seller provides a receipt wither their name from major seller like Apple, BestBuy. Just make sure the SN of the iPod matches the paper.

  • Can you give me some reasons about why I need to buy an iPod touch 5.Although I have the iPhone ,iPod nano, iPad ,MacBook pro,I think the iPod touch 5 is so attractive that I can't help buying it at once.If I have it,what I can do with it,can you tell me?

    All I can say is that I REALLY like my Touch 4th gen because I have all sorts of capabilities in a small form: e-mail, web browsing, news, weather, books, magazines, etc. etc.  Plus lots and lots of apps out there, including so many free ones.  I use the Cloud a lot so it's great to have everything sync'd to my MacBookPro (e-mail, Evernote, Pocket, etc.)
    It would be easier, though, to do some of this, especially magazines, on the iPad mini, but, again, I love the small size of the Touch. 
    As for the 5th gen instead of the 4th, the fifth has Siri and the 3D feature in maps, which are great.  And I'm sure it's a lot faster in iOS 6 than the 4th gen.  And cool colors! 
    Don't know if this helps . . .

  • I have an A1288 ipod touch I bought about 3 years ago. I am currently trying to download an app however the I'm getting an error message which is essentially saying that the "ios" I'm using isn't up to date and the itunes summary says otherwise?

    Other forums state I have to buy a new one but what happens when this happens again I think I'm moving to another brand this is crazy?

    Yes, there's a limit, and that iPod touch has reached it.

  • A few IMPORTANT observations about the iPod Touch (MUST READ)

    While doing research on iPod Touch (to purchase for myself), I discovered the following review http://www.ilounge.com/index.php/ipod/review/apple-ipod-touch-8gb-16gb/P0
    It is by far a VERY detailed review of the iPod Touch.
    One thing that i had noticed before was that on the comparison page of the iPod's the 8GB iPod touch states it can hold up to 1750 songs, while the iPod Nano 8GB can hold 2000 songs. Which lead me to ask why.
    In the review, it says:
    iPod nano 8GB = 7.41GB available free space
    iPhone 8GB = 7.24GB available free space
    iPod Touch = 7.08GB available free space
    Now i understand that the iPod Touch and iPhone use OSX and that uses a large chunk of space, but why is there 160mb missing? You'd think that the iPod Touch would have MORE available space than the iPhone, since a LOT of the applications are missing, as well as there is less hardware installed = less drivers.
    Now I kind of agree with the reviewer when he says that the iPod Touch is a downgrade from the iPhone. Technically speaking the iPod touch is the most expensive and top of the line in the iPod family, yet it suffers a huge loss when compared to the iPhone.
    The following things are missing from the iPod touch (at the cost of $100 less): Dock, charger, camera, external speaker, microphone, battery life, screen quality, resilient back casing, Bluetooth, and several applications!
    Now someone might ask, Saeid just get an iPhone then. But the problem is that the iPhone is NOT available in Canada (officially) and IF one day it does become available, chances are it would be with a contract on Rogers (i'm on Fido).
    I look forward to your views on the matter. Perhaps i AM over looking a few things. I am a HUGE fan of Apple, i ask because i usually look at EVERY single aspect of something before i make a purchase.
    Saeid.
    P.s. Forgot to mention that in the review, it also states that the Sync (upload) time is much slower on the iPod Touch than the iPhone. The battery life one might argue is due to the fact that the Touch is smaller in size, but how would you explain the rest of the issues?
    Message was edited by: Saeid

    I am probably one of the few people on the planet who seldom uses a mobile phone. I have only a bare-bones phone plan. When I use a camera, I want one that takes high quality photos. At this point, I don't care that much about Bluetooth or a microphone.
    I bought my Touch for the expanded music & video storage. I prefer flash memory to a hard drive so I didn't choose the iPod Classic. The Wi-fi is a bonus that works well for me. It would be nice if I had access to the Web all the time, but I don't want the ongoing monthly costs for an iPhone.
    I've had my Touch for almost two months. It was an excellent choice for me. Chris Breen of Playlist revisits the Touch in his blog. Take a look at it for some good points: http://playlistmag.com/weblogs/ipodblog/index.php#61228

  • General Questions about the iPod Touch

    Hello,
    I'm considering buying a new iPod touch after the Keynote Yesterday. I have a few questions though that I'm on the fence about:
    1. Does the iPod Touch Mail Client Sync with the OSX Mail Client. Does it sync in Tiger? Does it sync in Leopard? Or does it only sync via .Mac
    2. Does the Calendar Program allow you to create new events on the calendar like an iPhone, or can you only view existing events like on the iPod. What about the Address Book?
    3. When the Wifi is not connected can you view your email messages?
    4. When the SDK kit is released in February, will I be able to purchase developer's apps for the iPod Touch, or will they be exclusive to the iPhone?
    Any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks!

    1. The mail client works with POP or IMAP, it does not "sync" with the OSX Mail app that I am aware of however if you are using OSX Mail to access a POP or IMAP account they can be configured to work together.
    2. You can add events to the calendar as well as contacts to the address book directly
    3. You can view emails w/o WiFi if you have configured Mail to do so
    4. I don't have an official answer for this one, but I would assume the answer is yes.
    Hope that helps, all of this information is avaliable on the iPod Touch product pages.

  • Should I get the iPod Touch? (Also a question about the screen issue)

    Hi,
    I recently purchased the 8GB iPod Nano, and now i'm considering to add a $100 and get the iPod Touch 8GB. Would you guys recommend it?
    Another question I had was that I heard about the iPod Touch having some Screen Issues, and read somewhere that if the Box has a picture of Macy Gray then its Bad. But I personally think the Macy Gray image is for the 8GB, and the other artist is for the 16GB.
    Is there a 100% definite way for me to find out if it has a good screen or not?
    Thanks in Advance!
    Saeid.

    Ok, I recommend the iPod Touch. 8GB is fine, and totally worth the $$.
    The screen issue has been fixed by a firmware update, so as long as you update to the latest firmware, you should be in the clear.
    I have a 16GB macy Gray and it is working perfectly so far (1 week of ownership)
    However, you mentioned using your iPod in the rain. If you do so, the Touch is not for you! I would not want to get water even near it, because the technology could be very very sensitive to water. It was raining here the other day (in Los Angeles) and I was so scared to use the touch that I took my 8GB 3gen Nano with me instead. And I was still scared to use that.
    You will have to take the touch out and look at it if you are going to operate it properly.
    The good news:
    you can make playlists on the go! That means you can, while it is still dry, set a nice playlist without connecting to your computer. But, if the volume needs to be adjusted, there is a shortcut that would take just a bit of memorization and careful skill. In your pocket, you can double tap the home button, and then the volume, pause and track forward/backward "buttons" pop up. If you can memorize their position and hit them right, the Touch can be operated in your pocket. But make sure your hands are dry!
    So it's up to you. I think quality wise, the Touch has had most of its bugs worked out. The only things that will come in the future are additional features.
    Good luck and I hope you get it.

  • A few questions about the iPod Touch

    Okay so I'm thinking about getting one of these because friends have recommended them and I have the money. First off I bought a 2nd gen ipod nano off ebay a couple of months ago but lost everything on my pc so I'll have to replace all of the songs before I can sync it. Does this happen with the ipod touch? Or are they actually stored on it? Also, what are the best features of the ipod touch over the nano? And is it really worth it? Another friend has an iphone and said I should touches are crap and I should get an iphone because they're so much better, but they cost like 3x more than touches. Why are iphones so much better? Help is appreciated.

    Does what happen?
    Are you blaming the loss of files on your PC on the iPod? You should always backup your PC's files whether or not you have an iPod.
    vedderfan94 wrote:

    Of course the songs are actually stored on the iPod, how else would you be able to carry them around with you and play music?
    vedderfan94 wrote:

    Touch screen and apps.

    The Touch does not contain a cell phone, camera, GPS, or compass but otherwise essentially the same as an iPhone and running the same O/S.

  • My 3rd generation IpodTouch, shows when you first get the ipod touch how it connects to Itunes, i plug it in and it says to put in the passcode...but i cant... what do i do?

    You have to type in the passcode. If you don't remember the passcode, read here. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen

  • What other little things about the iPod I should know about?

    Just a quick question,
    What are some of the features of the iPod Touch that are not 100% obvious?
    Example...
    Yesterday I found out that you could pull up the music controls anywhere(even locked) by pressing the "home" button twice.
    After finding the above by accident, I was thinking about if their was any other little hidden things to find.
    --Daniel L

    1. Watch quicktime supported videos (via safari) (3GP, MPEG-4 etc)
    2. Play podcasts/mp3 (via safari)
    3. When viewing photos tilt the screen and right when the screen is adjusting touch it and the photo will stay like that

  • Is the iPod Touch 5 worth buying now?

    I wanted to buy the iPod touch 5th gen to experience all the cool features from the ios 7 .. I'm an android user but I have an iPad 3 at home which is my mother's and my sister has an iPhone 4s and a 5s. I just thought that i should get myself an ios device too. My price range is somewhere around the iPod touch 5 price so is it worth it to buy it now? Should I hold up for a while and wait for the next ipod? or is it ok if buy it now . of course the ipod isn't using the latest processor from apple but it's the same processor as the iphone 4s. it also packs up a 512 mb ram just like the iphone 4s. let's say if i couldnt wait any longer for the next ipod to come, should i buy it now? and if i bought the 5th there is no chance i'll have enough money to buy the 6th when it came out. the big question is, should i buy it now or wait for the next? I appreciate your answers.

    Should I hold up for a while and wait for the next ipod?
    The only way to avoid having to answer that for yourself is to wait until Apple is about to go out of business or stop making iPods altogether. That way, you can be sure there will never be a next iPod.

  • In the iPod touch 5th generation can I put a wifi card in it ? Like wifi Vodafone card like in the iPad 3G, In the iPod touch 5th generation can I put a wifi card in it ? Like wifi Vodafone card like in the iPad 3G

    In the iPod touch 5th generation can I put a wifi card like Vodafone wifi cards I put a wifi card in my iPad 3G and it works what about ipod ?

    Wi-fi card?
    The ipod has wi-fi bult in.
    Why would you need a wi-fi card?
    It sounds like you are  talking about a SIM card, which has nothing at all to do with wi-fi.  It is for cellular service from a wireless phone provider.  If this is what you mean, then no.  Ipods are not cell phones and cannot access cellular data.
