Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

    Did you just update to BUGGY OS 4.x???
    All the updates starting with OS 4.x have completely screwed up most iPod Touch', especially older models like Gen 2 and 3.
    Inability to connect to any WiFi.
    Fluctuating WiFi signal no matter how close you are to the AP.
    Drastically shortened battery life, even when in sleep mode.
    And Apple hasn't done a **** thing since irritated owners have complained about it since the middle of 2011!!
    (I am one of many thousands affected!) Look at older threads by searches of "Fluctuating WiFi", Terrible Battery Life, for the Touch and iPhone.
    This is why I bought an Android tablet instead of an iFad this Xmas. Non-existant Apple support!

  • IPod touch 2nd generation will not connect to home wifi

    My ipod touch 2nd generation will not connect to the internet. I am using a BT modem and this is a new problem. Until recently, I had no problem with this connection and it will connect to BT Fon and BTOpenworld. I just cannot get it to connect at home any more. I also use a macbook pro and this is connected to the bt modem.

    You should post this in the iPod Touch forum.  This is the iPod Shuffle forum.

    I Just downloaded Dreamweaver CC and it will not open the app., double click and nothing happens?

    What exactly are you double-clicking? 
    Once software is installed on your computer, you can usually launch by clicking the icon on your computer's desktop.  Or by looking inside Start > Programs (Win) or Applications Folder (Mac).

    Only iPod Touch 4th generation can update to iOS 6.
    iPod Touch 5th Generation will come with iOS 6 already installed.

  • I have a brand new Ipod touch and it will not sync.

    I have a brand new ipod touch and I cannot get it to synch with my itunes.  I have two other Ipod Nano's that will synch up just fine.  The computer has windows XP with the latest service pack on it.  It does not recognize it as a device in windows, but sees my other two ipods.  I have the latest itunes software on it.  I even uninstalled it and reinstalled per the apple web site.  I connected the ipod touch to another cpmputer and the usb port sees it as a device just fine.  What do I need to do to this thing to get this computer to see it?

  • My daughter changed the password on her ipod touch and it will not allow her to put letters in so therefore she is locked out! how can we fix this

    My daughter has changed her ipod touch password and it will not allow her to put in letters so therefore she is locked out! How can she fix this?

    Connect the iPod to its syncing computer and restore via iTunes.  If iTunes asks for the passcode and you can't enter the passcode or yu do not have the syncing computer, place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore. For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

  • My iPod Touch and iPad will not sync with iTunes, Windows crashes

    I have done the latest upgrade on software for itunes, upgraded the software on both my ipod touch and ipad and now itunes will not sync.  As soon as it starts the syncing process I get a pop up window (I'm on Windows XP) that says that there's an error and itunes has to shut down.  I ran the diagnostics test and it says there's no error.  Not sure what to do now.

  • IPod touch 4th gen will not connect to anything after update. Please help.

    Ok, so I haven't updated my 4th gen ipod touch since I bought it, which was well over a year ago. Just recently, apps have started to force me to update to the newest iOS and many updates require it too, so I finally decided to update and get it over with. Well, I synced everything from my ipod and then updated. Well, to my horror after I came back I found out that even though I had CLEARLY synced my apps. They were gone on BOTH my ipod and my computer.
    Not to say I was really ticked off or anything, but I had almost 15 GB or so of just apps on my 32 GB itouch. I read somewhere that I can go back and reinstall all my apps but that would be a PAIN. Turns out there aren't many others ways to go about doing it so I was left with little choice. Well, once again, I ran into the problem that absolutely nothing would connect on my ipod touch.
    So, I have two problems actually:
    1. Is there anyway besides reinstalling apps for me to get back all the apps I had prior to updating my ipod? And in the future, how can I prevent itunes from deleting my apps when I clearly have them synced before updating?
    2. Why won't my ipod touch connect to anything wifi related? When I open the app store it just simply loads. And it will continue loading forever; I had it "loading" for about an hour until I decided to come here. Same goes with iCloud, facetime, Safari - just anything that has to do with connecting to my wifi.
    Things I've done: I've restarted my ipod once already, I've reset my router as well, and I've also tried to disconnect from my router then reconnect. None of them have worked so far. Any help would be appreciated.

    - If synced media like apps and music are not in the iTunes library on the computer one which you update they will not be on the iPod after the update since the backup that iTunes makes does not include synced media..

  • My iPod touch 5th generation will not connect to secure WiFi networks.

    My 5th gen iPod touch will not connect to Secure wifi networks. It always says incorrect passcode. I have checked the passcode over and over again and I am sure it's correct. it's not just happening with my home network, also at work it never works. It is fine connecting to unsecure networks though. please help me.
