Issues With My iPod Touch 4th Gen
I just returned my iPod Touch 4th Gen to the nearest authorized Apple service center. Im just worried about my iPod touch if it will be indeed replaced or just repaired.
The first issue is the light leak on the left side, its huge! i can insert my fingernail between the gap of the metal case and the glass. This hasn't really bothered me since i used a silicon casing.
the second issue is i noticed a bubble under the glass. its like a trapped dirt or something. take a look

still, im still being patient, and i did not bother to return it.
but yesterday, boom, i saw a stuck pixel just around the top left of the screen. it was white all the time. i said to my self, this is not good.
i went to the service center immediately, it will take about 4 days before Apple can confirm if my iPod will be replaced or repaired.
Im just sad because I've owned every Apple product (old and latest) except the Apple TV, and this is the first time it happened, in a product (iPod Touch) with so many issues.
I just want it replaced, not repaired, as it has not even turned 1 month old with me. The store where I bought this only offers 7 days outright replacement, that's why im stuck waiting for 4 days confirmation :(((
When you get it back, and if you still are not happy, call Apple and asked to get transferred to Customer Relations. Calmly explain the situation and they will do what it takes to make you a happy customer.

You can only sync with one computer. I would backup to one computer and then restore from backup.

Need help with my ipod touch 4th gen
My name is whitney last year i bought a ipod touch 4th gen . And everything was working fine until i had recently updated it to ios 5.0.1 . Ihave internet connection and can view the browser but when i try to view the app store it either keeps loading the page, or it says cannot connect to itunes store or the browser has timed out . I am getting very frustrated about this as last month my ipod was working fine with everything until i had updated it and had to restore it and the problem still persists. And it wont let me verify my icloud account either it also times out and says verfification failed . If anyone out there can help me out i would appreciate it .
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes." -
Can't connect to the internet with my iPod touch 4th gen.
So I have an iPod touch 4th gen. and have been able to get wifi from my computer with no problem but now it's not working. When I choose the network I've always used I see the 3 lines on top of the screen that show when it's connected to the internet but when I try to open iTunes, the App Store, etc. it says, "cannot connect to iTunes" or whatever it is that I'm trying to open.
I'm so frustrated! I already restarted both my iPod & laptop, connected then disconnected the modem, and resetted the network settings but it still doesn't work.
When i open troubleshoot problems, it says that the wireless network connection doesn't have a valid IP configuration, sorry if I'm too stupid but what's an IP configuration? How can I fix this?
Please help me!Does the iPod connect to other networks?
Do other devices now connect? ( I thin yo are say no. In that case you have a router problem. Try powering off and then back on the router. Next try changing the security on the router. Test it with no security. The reset ther router. Last, get a new router.)
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

The add to button doesn't appear on itunes with my ipod touch 4th gen.
I cannot add any songs to my ipod touch 4th generation because an add to button does not appear on itunes in the "on my ipod" section. If i plug my sister's newer ipod in it works, it does not make sense. i have re installed itunes four times now. I don't know what else to do. This means i can no longer add any songs to my ipod from my computer the only way to get songs is by purchasing them from the itunes store. HELP. PLEASE. This has been occurring for a while now.
Hi katelyn6794!
You may want to try setting up your iPod to sync content manually using the information in this article:

What is wrong with the ipod touch 4th gen battery?
I have an 8gb 4th gen ipod touch that I purchased in December 2011. I charged it completely last night after doing a full reset, and by morning the battery was only at half charge. I've turned off all unnecessary services, no apps were running, no music/video play, just in sleep mode. Still the battery drained down at least 50%.
Is anyone else experiencing these problems? Have you found a way to extend the battery charge?Try this:
iPod: How to extend battery life
You did not say if the iPod was in airplane mode. That helps a lot. With iOD 5, the battery does drain faster than before. -
I recently purchased a new iPod Touch. The "keyboard" of my first generation was beginning to play up, but it still worked fine with my TomTom carkit (if you'll allow for the fact that being restricted to OS 3 meant you couldn't update the software either). But, contrary to what I'd been told, the fourth generation one refuses to work. I think it's making contact because I hear the connection beep, but it doesn't charge up or seem able to find the satellite connection. I've seen someone saying it was a physical width problem. If it's making contact, why isn't it capable to pick up a signal? Is there a compatibility issue after all?
Got you! Why this didn't come up in my search before, have no idea. So it's all a question of design... How mean not to inform manufacturers of accessories about the change in specs. About to try the folded-over business card solution and then Velcro if the former doesn't give satisfaction. Did actually buy a silicon case, but it makes the protective filter buckle as it gets under the edges which isn't exactly useful. Went back to my previous leather case which I have to remove to use the car kit...

Is a Dell latitude 610 laptop compatible with a ipod touch 4th gen?
My sons 610 won't recognize or charge his new gen 4 touch when you plug it in to laptop, He previously owned a touch 2nd gen and it worked fine with computer, trying to find out if this ipod isn't compatible. Have already checked service pack is correct, it has a 2.0 usb port, and itunes has been updated.Also the Ipod read and works fine in my computer which is a inspiron 1525 so the ipod works fine. Thanks
Does the computer have iTunes version 10.7 or higher?
If you have iTunes 11 turn on the Sidebar. Go to iTunes>View and click on Show Sidebar. You can also do a Crtl+S to show the sidebar. The sidebar is where Devices appears.
Have you tried another cable?
Rund this and see if it helps

How do I change my phone number on my Apple ID account? Not the number for billing. I got a new Ipod touch and when I was setting it up my emails where correct but the phone number was wrong. The gentlemen at the Apple Store told me just to go on my account on my computer and change it but i cant find where. Only part i know how to change is the billing number. Thanks.
If you can remember them their current answers you can login here and change them : https://appleid.apple.com , click on 'Manage your Apple ID' and then 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of your account's page
If you can't remember their answers and you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then see if the instructions on this user tip helps you get them reset : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551
