Mailing "group" contacts via iPod Touch?

Hi all,
Curious--is there a way to email a 'group' of contacts via iPod Touch? I have 23 students in any given year, and I would like to simply insert a 'group' name to have the names appear in the bcc" field. I'd really rather NOT type/select in each name one, by one, by one, by one..
it's easily done on the Mac--is there a way to do it on the iPod Touch?
Thanks

Okay, so there isn't a way (yet) to do the "mail to group" thing. However, I found--via Apple Learning Interchange that there is such an app called Mail2Group that does that very thing--works with the Mail app on the iPod Touch
and it DOES work..

Unable to set up Groups in my iPod touch Contacts application.

Can't see how to organize my contacts into Groups. My iPod touch just shows "All contacts" and I don't see any way to create Groups in iTunes either. I checked the iPod touch online manual and it mentions the Groups but says nothing about setting them up. I have been using the palm system for years but I am switching out. I am willing to reenter a few 100 contacts myself, but I do need to organize them into Groups. Please help.

Restore it. Maybe that helps.

Can not access home network via ipod touch, password entered not accepted

Can not access home network via ipod touch, password entered not accepted
Trying to help my son set up his ipod touch to connect to the network and the password I entered is not accepted.
1. Which password is required? I entered the password I use for logging into my router
2. The home network is recognized, when selected it requires a password to be entered, but I am just not sure what password it is looking for to connect.
I have not been able to find any information on this subject

jersey0904, Welcome to the discussion area!
You need to enter the wireless encryption password... not the administrative password for the router.

Is there Junk mail filtering in the ipod Touch MAIL app

I love the junk mail filtering in my computer's version of MAIL. Does the ipod touch do this as well?

No it does not have junk mail filtering.

Thunderbird Contacts Into iPod Touch?

Good Evening,
I'm thinking of getting an iPod Touch. One of the things I like about it is all the apps.
I use Thunderbird for e-mail (I hate Microsoft Exchange). Is there an app that would let me transfer my Thunderbird contacts into the iPod Touch?
Thanks,
Matthew

A A P L,
Thanks for the response, but I admit I'm a little confused. I thought iPods only allow contacts via Exchange?
I'm on a Vista computer, so I don't have accedd to Entourage or iCal (at least I don't think I do).
I was hoping for an app that could sync Thunderbird contacts without exporting. It would be a major hassle to keep exporting my contacts list, as I add new contacts all the time.
Just out of curiosity, why doesn't Apple let iPods work with Thunderbird contacts? I would think they would want this, as Exchange is a Microsoft (i.e., major competitor) product!
Thanks,
Matthew

How do I "reset" calendars and contacts on iPod Touch 2G

I need to know how to erase and/or reset all contacts and calendars on my ipod Touch. Initially I synced with my mobileme account. When one of my contacts did not sync properly, however, I set iTunes to sync with calendars and contacts. Now I have duplicate contact and calendar entries on my Touch. I want to erase/reset all calendars and contacts on my Touch, and then sync them again and in the future via mobileme. Please help. Thanks!

Ah, I see what you did. However I think my problem is a little bit different. I have my "mobile.me" contact file (which syncs just fine), PLUS I have an "on my iPod touch" contact file. I'd like to delete the "on my iPod" set of info and retain the Apple (me.com) info.
Any suggestions would be welcome.

Can't transfer contacts from ipod touch to ipad mini!!

Hi
My son has several contacts on his ipod touch (5th gen). I simply want to move these to the new ipod mini we’ve just bought him.
I’ve followed all the articles on the Apple support pages but can’t figure out how to do this.
Synced old ipod via itunes to sync contacts etc
I’ve set up new ipad mini with pc and itunes
ipad has latest IOS
Synced new ipad etc
Whatever I do I simply can’t get the contacts on his ipod to appear in his new ipad mini!
The only thing I can think of is that he created the contacts mainly for face time purposes so they only exist on the ipod. That said I thought syncing would do the trick.
Any advice would be much appreciated as I’m determined to do this on principle now!
Many thanks
Simon

if worst comes to worse, you can always re-download purchased apps (free of charge) in iTunes. see _*How to redownload purchased apps from the App Store*_.

"no default mail client" error when iPod touch is plugged in

I use my iPod with a Mac at home and a WinXP box at work. I have a new 2G iPod touch. Whenever I plug it in at work and start iTunes, I start getting this error. The error window will pop up once or twice and then go away, at least for a while.
"Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client cannot fulfill the messaging request. Please run Microsoft Office Outlook and set it as the default mail client."
Yeah, right, like I'm going to do that. This seems to be coming from the program OutlookSyncClient.exe -- I don't have my iPod set to sync Calendars. So why is this happening and how can it be made to stop? Is iTunes trying to email someone? And why is Apple trying to get me to use a Microsoft email program? Insanity.

I just started getting that same popup error constantly, since upgrading to the latest iTunes version last night. I think in my case it's happening when the auto-sync to MobileMe is triggered. I don't have M$ Outhouse as my default mail client and don't want to make M$ Outhouse my default client, but I have been syncing calendars and contacts through it to MobileMe because it doesn't support syncing directly to the things I really use. Previously it worked OK without requiring me to make it my default client... what changed?

Address Book on iMac is out of synch with Contacts on iPod Touch. How do I get them in synch (through iCloud/iTunes)?

I'm confused about the different versions of Address Book on iMac. I set up iTunes to synch Address Book with my iPod Touch 5th Gen. through iCloud. Somehow they got out of synch.
There are three sections or versions of Address Book on my iMac: (1) "All Contacts," (2) "On My Mac: All on My Mac" and (3) "iCloud: All iCloud."
"All Contacts" seems to combine the last two. Unfortunately, contacts that got added to "On My Mac" are NOT being synched to iCloud and to my iPod.
What can I do to get them in synch and how can I avoid this in the future?

On your iPod...
There are settings in the Contacts apps if you tap "groups". Check all.
And in settings, check in iCloud to see that all contacts are switched to on in all accounts.

Can't Sync "All Contacts" with iPod Touch 2nd Generation

I have an older 2nd Gen iPod Touch (iOS 4.2.1) and a 2011 MacAir running Mountain Lion (MacOS 10.8) and the latest version of iTunes (10.6.3). The Contacts application on the MacAir is syncing the "All on my Mac" group (84 contacts) with my iPod, rather than syncing with "All Contacts" (100 contacts). Is there a way to change this? I never setup the "All on my Mac" group so I don't know how that group got defined. I assumed it appeared as part of the Mountain Lion (or Lion) upgrades, but I'm not sure. I realize that iTunes provides the option of syncing with "All" or "Selected Groups" I have selected "All" but am still only getting the contacts from the "All on my Mac" group rather than "All Contacts."
P.S. Since the 2nd Gen iPod Touch cannot run iOS5 I can only sync through USB cable...no iCloud.
Help!

For anyone who might read my post and have the same problem, the above link, second option to try work like a charm. I have my music back. I had to go looking for it and clicking on one of the pieces to play it in iTunes worked. Not all the music was located right away but it was still findable.

Can't Set Up E-mail for BellSouth on IPod Touch

I've followed the guidance exactly and even had Apple tech support walk me through but I still cannot connect. I'm wondering if anybody else is having this problem and whether there is a workaround.
Gmail and Yahoo mail work like a charm so it's not a connection issue.
Thanks much in advance.

Just got the iPod Touch 32GB for my beautiful bride for her birthday. Same issue. Fortunately, I have found that missing piece of the puzzle. I have worked with servers, email, etc. for years, so the frustration can be tremendous. With Bellsouth you need the correct information, but that is not all. I will include all of the settings so you should be able to get yours work as well. You can set up your account manually, but the solution that works is this:
(iTunes version 8.0.2.20 on Windows Vista 64 OS)
(Microsoft Outlook 2003)
Go to iTunes on your computer.
Connect your iPod Touch
You should see under Devices {your iPod name} iPod
Click the INFO Tab [Summary, Music, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, Photos, Info, Applications] that's the seventh TAB
SCROLL Down to Mail Accounts
Select (check the box) that says Sync selected mail accounts from:
Select your mail application [ours says Outlook]
select the mail account in the dialogue box if you have more than one mail account
On the bottom right of iTunes, click the Sync Button
THIS will transfer all of your mail settings AND you will be able to send and receive messages.
Prior to the Sync, I had set up the account settings manually and was able to send, but not receive messages. After Syncing my wife's account, the messages I had tried from my account also were sent.
