My 4th generation iPod touch with iOS 6.1.6 will not receive videos of photos via iMessage

I have an iPod touch 4th generation with the latest version of iOS available (6.1.6). And recently my iPod has become unable to receive photos and videos on iMessage from other iMessage users, it will receive text messages in iMessage however. I was wondering what has caused this problem only occuring recently.

Have you looked at the previous discussions listed on the right side of this page under the heading "More Like This"?

My 3rd Generation iPod touch with iOS 5.1.1 is not able to download emails inside a label or folder in different email a/c imap or exchange??

Hi,
I upgraded to iOS 5.1.1 and not I am not able to download emails withing a folder or label (gmail) for any a/c configured with imap or exchange.

Thank you for your reply. We did establish that the mail was in fact coming in but could not be seen in the actual MAC MAIL application. I just posted the following update:
It is also a problem with POP3, not just IMAP. This seems to be widespread. My MAC Mail was working fine until the 10.10.1 update. Geek Squad Agents spent almost 8 hours trying to figure this out and get me up and running again. They did EVERYTHING! And I do mean EVERYTHING (a shout out to them for going above and beyond with this!) Nothing worked. It seems that no changes were made to MAC MAIL in the upgrade and it is still the version used in Mavericks. It also seems that it is NOT compatible with the 10.10.1 upgrade and therefore the PLIST file becomes corrupt even with a re-build (we re-built mine 2 times). They recommended a complete reinstall of 10.10.1, but due to the holiday selling season I'm going to wait until JAN to take my computer in to Best Buy for this. I'm also hoping that Apple will send out an update fixing this issue before then. In the mean time, they have installed Mozilla Thunderbird (a free open source mail app) so that I can send and receive email via my computer!
Apple will need to fix this but until them I'm recommending anyone with this problem try a complete reinstall or use another email application on their computer.

My 4th generation ipod touch is in recovery mode and will not restore

Everytime i try to restore my ipod it loads until there is a little bit left to load and then shuts off and itunes says that there is an unknown error (9) and can not restore. Does anyone know what that means and/or what i can do?

Hi @rchangel - Thanks for the ideas...
Yes - it won't let you install the 32 bit version on a 64 bit machine.
I've had a cursory look at the SP1 release notes, and couldn't spot anything vital - what critical stuff do you know of in SP1?
I don't want to have to go through all the pain of setting up VM's, reinstalling iTunes, getting all my album art back in etc. (though I could, as I do have Win7 pro). I've also heard that running iTunes in Windows 7 compatibility mode might help. Can anyone confirm whether that actually works?
I think it's in Apple's gift to fix this issue, given that they say that they support Windows 7. So far I've had no feedback from a mail I sent to Apple, and the number of users reporting this problem keeps going up and up.
I want Apple to recognise that there is a problem, and then I want them to fix it.

HT201263 My 4th gen ipod touch is 6 mos old and will not turn on

My 4th gen ipod touch is 6 mos old. Tried to turn on today and nothing. Plugged into computer held down sleep/wake button and plugged into computer with usb. Nothing. It has not been dropped or bumped. It has been stored as I don't use it often only to play music on spotify thru internet. I probably haven't used this ipod more than 20 times. Any suggestions?

- After being connected to a charging source for at least an hour see if placing the iPod in Recovery mode will allow a restore.
- If not successful time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

HT4053 My 4th generation iPod touch with no apps on it only lets me load 7300 songs but its a 64 gb one why is this?

My brand new iPod touch 64GB which has no extra applications other then what automatically comes with it, no pictures, in other words nothing extra bar standard issue. All I want is to load all my music from my iTunes, however it will only allow me to load 7,334 songs. iTunes keeps coming up with that I am short 21+gigs to be able to load all my music. None of this makes sense, also once having loaded 7000+songs I only have 88mb left! This makes no sense as 64GB should allow me to load at least 30,000 songs. Please help.

Where did you get the 30,000+ number of songs? The specs for the 5G (or 4G iPod touches) do not spoecify how many songs they can hold. The specs for the 3G iPod say the following. 14,00o in with128 kbps compression
Capacity
32GB or 64GB flash drive2
Holds up to 7,000 or 14,000 songs in 128-Kbps AAC format3
Holds up to 40,000 or 90,000 iPod-viewable photos4
Holds up to 40 hours or 80 hours of video5

How does that help when there is no media as I keep EMPHASISING apart from music. And according to Apple you should be able to load 30,000+songs on a 64GB iPod not 7,000! So this advice is utterly useless isn't it!!!!

My Ipod touch 5 Ios 8.1.2 will not turn on

This question has been asked before ut my case is different.
I have had my Ipod since June 2013 and it has been working Ok for the year and a half I have owned it.
About five days ago I clicked the home button and I got an odd click, and from then on I would need to press the home button very hard in order for it to work. the lock button still wortked fine, so I turned on assistive touch.
Latlely (the past two weeks) my Ipod has blanked out and I would have to restart it again by holding down the home button and the sleep button for ten seconds to turn it back on.
Today I set it down, it was working fine nothing out of the ordinary, I walk away and when I come back maybe 20 minutes later it won't turn on. I try to do a full restart (which is tough because of the home button being damaged) and it doesnt turn on. I plug it into the computer and it won't turn on, the computer doesn't even reconize it. I have tried to put it into rwcovery mode, but nothing is happeneing.
Please help!
Thanks.

To put your device into recovery mode, follow these steps:
Turn off your device and leave it off.
Plug in your device's USB cable to a computer with iTunes.
Hold down the Home button on your device as you connect the USB cable. Keep holding down the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
When you see this screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 again.
When your device is connected, iTunes will open. You'll see a message saying that iTunes has detected an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch in recovery mode.
Use iTunes to restore your device. Restoring in recovery mode will erase your device. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you might be able to restore from your backup.

4th gen iPod touch worked fine yesterday, this morning will not power on

I've always used my iPod for almost everything, contact,notes memos,calender planning, videos and internet stuff. I have a special cord I connect to the wide screen tv and can play videos and any movies directly from the internet. A video system for the car to play from my iPod for the kids. In other words it's a very important device for me. It worked fine last night as always. This morning I went to use it I got nothing, no apple icon or anything. I tought maybe I left it on, so I connected it to power. 20 minutes later, no signs of life. I removed the protective rubber case I keep it in to prevent accidental breakage and noticed beads of moisture inside the case. Could this be related some how? I'm hoping this is something I can at home. I really can't afford to be without this too long,
(important contacts and job related notes and such). Please help, Thanks.

You may end up erasing the iPod. Just restore from backup if that is the case
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Can you update a 2nd generation iPod touch with iOS 5?

The current version of iOS I have as of now is 4.2.1. I was wondering if this was possible, if so, please let me know how so I can update it.

No. A 2G can only go to iOS 4.2.1.

My 4th generation iPod Touch randomly deleted a bunch of my notes. How do I get them back?

Sometimes my notes just randomly disappear--how to I get them back and/or avoid this?

You can try restoring from backup.
A few other have reported the same but I have not seen a solution

I have a 4th generation iPod touch which was working perfectly until I downloaded ios5 and now it won't connect to my wi-fi - all other devices working correctly. Where can I download ios 4.3.5 from?

I have a 4th generation iPod touch which was working perfectly until I downloaded ios5 and now it won't connect to my wi-fi - all other devices working correctly. My pc didn't create a backup before updating software so I can't revert back to ios 4.3.5 from there, where can I download ios 4.3.5 from?

I tried just about everything and finally brought my Ipod touch to the apple store. The tech installed ios 4.3.5 but still no WIFI. He recommended a $149 exchange - not really a bad deal with a new battery and 90 day warranty, but I thought I'd try again.
The "solution" was bizarre. On YouTube was a fix involving taking the motherboard out and heating the wifi components with a heat gun.
I did not like that idea, but another involved turning it off, putting it in the freezer for five minutes and restarting. It worked! I must admit the fix does not work reliably, so I may still go for the exchange. Still, I am now convinced that it is a hardware problem. i remember back in the old days, TV repairmen sprayed a suspected bad resistor with Freon. The chilled component would work long enough to identify what needed replacement. Perhaps something similar is happening here.
For anyone wanting to try this, I found it more convenient to place the back of my ipod on a frozen cold pack until the wifi is restored. It seems to happen when condensation forms on the face. I used a towel to wipe off the moisture so as not to add to the problem.
