My brand new ipod touch 5 says it is connect to the internet but I can't access anything

I just opened an Ipod touch 5 and it says it is connect to my wireless internet at full strength, but when I try to use an internet based application it doesn't work. I can't connect to anything that needs internet.

The problem could be caused by a firewall in the router.  For reasons that I do not understand, that will affect IOS (iPod/iPad) communication but will not affect computers or other devices.
You will need administrative access to the router.  If a firewall is present, turn it off and test the iPod again.  If it works, turn the firewall back on but weaken it a notch and test the iPod again.  Repeat as required.

    Any error messages?

    - 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.

  • TS3798 I have a new Ipad, it says I am connected to the internet but will not load . When attempting to go to a web sight, the green bar goes 1/2 inch then nothing

    I have a new ipad, it says I am connected to the internet but will not work. When I attempt to go to a web sight the green bar moves 1/2 inch and nothing.
    I have a used linksys router that I got from work. I tried connecting with a older ipad and every thing works correctly. any ideas?

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

  • I lost my ipod touch and it is connected to the internet but the location services are turned off anyway i could turn them on??

    Hi, I was wondering if anybody here knows how to turn on location services without the ipod in your hand it is connected through find my iphone and it says its online but location services are turned off if anybody here knows or think they know it would be greatly appreciated

    No.
    - If you previously turned on the FIndMyiPod feature and location service is on, and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud, sign in, and go to FindMyiPhone. It the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - Report to police and change the passwords fro all accounts used on the iPod.
    - Apple will not help

  • I have a brand new ipod touch and it wont connect to itunes or my computer!!??

    I have a brand new ipod touch however when I connect it to my computer, itunes does not recognise it and neither does my computer. The drivers have downloaded and are showing working. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing itunes as discussed in support centre however nothing seems to work. The ipod itself just has the connect to the computer on the screen, is fully charged and when plugged in a little lock sign comes up for a second or two above the itunes icon!!! Let me know if you have any further suggestions please.

    Thanx for you suggestions, I used my old xp laptop...update software and my ipod connected however the memory is not large enough to hold my itunes library so I could see it was not the cable or the ipod at fault.
    I have tried to connect to my vista laptop again and have tried all of the suggestions in troubleshooting again...I have even upgraded to windows 7 to see if that cleared the problem....and....my computer has located my ipod but is only recognising it as a digital camera so back to the drawing board...
    Please have you any other suggestions???

  • My ipod 5th gen says it is connected to the internet and i can go on apps that require an internet connection but whe i try to use the weather or another app that uses your current location it cant find me???

    My ipod 5th gen says it is connected to the internet and i can go on apps that require an internet connection but whe i try to use the weather or another app that uses your current location it cant find me???

    If you open the Maps app where does that say you are located?
    For location the iPod uses the location of nearby routers that are in Apple's database of routers and their location. Thus it appears that Apple's database is incorrect. You do not have to be connected to the router, just within range.
    Apple periodically updates their database based on information they obtain from iPhones, The iPhone has to have turned on the option to send info to Apple. no one has found another way to get the location of a router added/corrected.
    You can confirm that by going to well-know place with wifi like Starbucks or McDonalds                              

  • Front Row says im not connected to the internet, But I am!

    I go on Front row to watch some movie trailers and it says im not connected to the internet, but im posting this.
    I have repaired permissions and reinstalled it and leopard.
    What can I do?

    It looks indeed like there is a bug in the Leopard version of Front Row. I have the exact same problem, after having just installed Leopard in a new clean install. The trailer browsing feature worked just fine with Tiger, in this very same Intel mini, but now with Leopard and with the exact same network settings, it keeps nagging about a missing internet connection. I am using a pppoe / DSL line, and needless to say, my internet connection is working just fine.
    But now, thanks to the hint above, I was able to get the movie trailers to work now. The trick, or should I say the workaround was to stop using the automatic setting configured by Leopard during installation, and setting up a new location, with the very same details. You don't have to delete anything, just add a new location and name it to your liking, then add your connection details, and you're all set.
    So in short, apparently one should use a manually set location rather than the automatic mode. An annoying little bug really, but fortunately easy to fix.
    Hopefully the boffins @Apple are reading these forums, and this little bug is to be fixed in 10.5.2 as well. That is, along with the Mail SMTP bug, which was also annoying but easy to fix, eventually.

    My computer says it's connected to the internet, but I keep getting a message that my computer can't find the server.  Could there be a problem with my computer's internet connection?

    First, unplug the modem, for at least 10 secs., then unlpug you airport/ wifi/ then try to reconnect.
    If it it does not not work, reconnect your modem, then reconnect your network utilites, use assistance.

  • Brand new iPod touch won't stay connected to Wifi

    I got a brand new white iPod touch for Christmas, and I can get it to connect to the internet and I can use the internet, but then after a few minutes it drops off the connection and I have to go back in and reconnect it. I know there isn't anything wrong with the wifi connection at my house because I have an older iPod touch (3rd generation) and it has always connected and stayed connected without a problem. My mom and brother also got the same iPod touches for Christmas, and theirs do the same exact thing.

    Change the router SSID (network name) and password to something shorter than the defaults.  If you dig into the router configuration web page you will find a short SSID.  My SSID is 5 characters long, and the password I use is 10 charcters long.

  • My macbook pro says I am connected to the internet but won't load pages

    my macbook pro says I am connected to the internet with a strong signal but it won't load any pages.  The internet works fine on my iPhone and other computers so it must be an issue with my macbook.  Any suggestions??

    Change your router channel number.  Most times this works & is all you have to do.

  • Says i am connected to the internet,but Google just keeps loading and not give me access to google

    says i am connected to the internet,try to go to google but just keeps loading the page without giving me accessto google

    Hello @laidbacklady,
    I have read your post on how you are not able to access the Internet, and that the web browser keeps loading up. Are you using Internet Explorer, Google Chrome or FireFox? Does this issue occur when you use a different browser? Are you able to connect to the Internet using a different computer? Are you connecting your computer to a wireless or wired network? I would be happy to help you, but first I would encourage you to post your product number for your computer. Below is a is an HP Support document that will demonstrate how to find your computer's product number.

  • My iPod touch 5 won't connect to the Internet!!

    So it's been a week & I've been trying to get my ipod to connect to the Internet. I searched up EVERYTHING of how to fix your wifi connections & stuff, & nothing worked. my ipod keeps telling me to put the internet password in when I aleady did (and its the right password). When I am only close to the router, it'll give me wifi, but when I am upstairs or some other place, it will not give me wifi. I don't know if it's the wifi or my iPod because my iPods connects to other networks but not my home wifi. its also updated to iOS 8.1.

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tends to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - 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.
