I have turned on and off my router and it worked for 5 minutes then it disconnected again. I don't know whats wrong with it. Help please my ipod is like the only way I have contact with my friends.

Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
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.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- 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.
SInce it connect to other networks fine I then suspect that ther is a problem with your network. Maybe time for a new router
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

My 8gb Ipod Touch 4g won't connect to my home wifi

I've selected the right network, typed in the right password and it won't connect.
And it's the strongest signal out of all the networks, the network itself is very strong.
This message comes up 'Unable to join network ...'
I know my ipod touch will connect to other wifi networks as I accidently connected to my neighbour's wifi, so I know it works. Obviously I want to use my own wifi network.
Any ideas of how to get it to work?

I am having the same problem as BexziJayne and so I followed the same instructions. But it still is doing the same thing.
My IPod will connect easily and quickly to any other WIFi but when I am at home, even though I've typed in the correct password, it basically remains in 'thinking' or 'connecting' mode. Basically, in Settings --> beside WI-Fi, it shows my network name, but if I click on it, you can see in the next screen that it is still thinking about connecting. My IPod even shows 3 blue bars in the upper left hand corner, which indicates that it is connected.
Is there anything else I should be doing?
Thanks

Tried to update to newest version. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes and is stuck on a connection with itunes screen

I tried to update to newest version via pc. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase so it says, but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes anymore and is stuck on a screen displaying an itunes icon with a usb icon.

oke i'm not done with the whole thing, but i'm doing that right now. Most of the advice I've already read didn't work and at a certain point it said something about shutting down programs then restart. but i notice that there are some pretty important system things in that list and i don't want to mess up my pc :s i'm not a pc genius... and because i'm dutch and my pc-language is in dutch I often have trouble translating and well... i don't always understand the technical stuff in all the articles -_-

IPod Touch 4G Won't Connect to Internet but No Problem with Nintendo DSi...

My sons new iPod Touch 4G 32GB won't recognize any networks. We have manually entered the name of our network and entered the password but to no avail.
I was able to get my daughter's new Nintendo DSi online within minutes but the iPod just won't work.
We have updated the firmware on our router, rebooted our router, reset the iPod, read the iPod manual, we've tried EVERYTHING.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for your assistance!!

IPod touch 4 won't connect to wifi anymore

Ok, I am having some problems re-connecting to my wifi at home. I have done all the updates for my ipod touch 4th gen, and I've tried almost everything. I have turned wifi off & on, forgotten the network, reset network settings and STILL nothing is working. When I look at the info on the network I'm trying to connect to, the IP address and some other numbers don't match the info on my phone(which does connect to wifi). The numbers start with 169... Instead of 192..(my home wifi IP). It won't let me change the info either. Please help me out! My games work but I can't get on the internet or the apple stores. And all the other devices in the house connect except my iPod!

The 169... address means that the iPod could not obtain an IP address from the router

Ipod touch 4G won't connect to iTunes after most recent update

I have recently update itunes and when I plug my 4G iPod touch into my computer nothing happens. It won't connect or sync. I have restarted, re authorized, rebooted my ipod and nothing. It was working just fine before the update half an hour ago. What can I do to get it to sync/connect again WITHOUT having to do something that requires erasing my ipod or itunes. I am very tired of having to do that because of Apple's updates.

See:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
I would start with
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
or
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

IPod touch disabled won't connect to iTunes

I have tried everything but can't get iPod touch to connect to iTunes. Power and home button reset won't work. Help!

I followed and repeated those instructions earlier with no luck. I have downloaded the latest version of iTunes, restarted my pc, fully charged the iPod......nothing it just returns to the red "disabled, connect to iTunes" screen. Each time I connect to itunes, it says "the iPod is locked please enter the pass code. Thanks so much for replying, I amreally frustrated.

My Ipod Touch 2G won't connect to My Computer & Itunes but will show that it's charging.

I've had my Ipod Touch 2G for quite a few years and it's always worked fine up until now. About a week or so ago, I wanted to add a song to my Ipod. So I downloaded the song to my ITunes then connected my Ipod in. Only my Ipod didn't show up. It would normally appear in my Itunes and in My Computer but it's not. The screen on my Ipod shows that it's charging, that's it. I've tried practically everything. I uninstalled Itunes then reinstalled it. I restarted my Ipod countless times. I've gone through the steps on iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows but nothing has worked. I know it can't be the USB port because my flashdrive connects into it just fine. It might be my USB cord, but I'm not sure. I plan to buy a new one asap but can anyone else help me? I plan to get an IPhone 5 very soon and hopefully a new laptop but my music on my Ipod isn't in my Itunes library. Do you see my problem? Please help me. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

- Try another cable as yu siad
- 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.

How to disable an ipod touch that won't connect to itunes or the computer

I recently got an ipod touch that was reset before being given to me. It wouldn't connect to iTunes or the computer but would still charge in the USB port. I updated iTunes and tried doing a soft reset holding down home and sleep. Then I realized on the screen that says "connect to iTunes", on the top right it would say "iPod" and in the middle it would show a little lock symbol. I was told this ment it was disabled and that's why it wouldn't work. But how would I restore it or reset it if I cannot get passed the connect to itunes screen and it wont connect to the computer. PLEASE HELP

Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

Ipod touch 4g won't connect to computer and itunes

if i connect my ipod touch to my computer, my computer doesn't say i connect my ipod. it doesn't sync.
please help

Are you using the same USB cable that came with the ipod? Try to use another USB cable in case you didn't do that before. Did you check the docking port for any kond of debris or lint?

How do i configure safari on new ipod touch - it won't connect to my wifi

How do I configure my husband's new iPod Touch (4th Gen.) for Safari? We have WiFi at home but when I choose our network nothing happens and there seem to be loads more things to fill in none of which I know the answer to! Help!

To connect to a WiFi network you need only enter the password for the network. If DHCP is configured in your router (it normally is) it will fill in all the relevant fields.
