My ipod touch 4th gen will only sync my gmail contacts created on the computer. It does not sync the contacts if they are created on the ipod. HELP!
I'm having the same problem with my girl's ipod 4th generation's. I have restored them 4 times now. It works fine after the restore but the very next time it will no longer sync and I have to do the restore again. It's becoming very frustrating.

I have an ipod touch 4th gen, installed the latest update to iOS 6 and have lost all my music, apps etc. It also linked up with an alternate email address???? Help!
I have a similar issue happenning with my ipod touch 64GB running IOS 6.0.1. My music content is stored via itunes on my Snow Leopard macbook pro as well (and not in the cloud). The music on my ipod (which is sync'd to my macbook pro when I connect via usb) has randomly disappeared about 3 or 4 times lately, not during sync'ing and unrelated to battery charge levels. Fortunately I have been able to restore it by restarting my macbook pro then re-syncing the ipod, which it is now doing as I write, but it takes hours (for over 3000 songs). Having looked at a few other forum discussion pages, it seems this may be a bug related to IOS 6 updates and using music/itunes and podcast playing apps. The same thing has intermittently occurred with some other content such as downloaded podcasts, iplayer content and photos. Once I reconnected the ipod it synced and apparently restored the content, but I can't understand why it lost it in the first place, and its very annoying. Lets hope the reinstalling works on my ipod tonight....up to 248 of 3326 songs syncing as I write....

I have two sons with ipod touch 4th gen. One has access to our wifi, the other does not. Any ideas????
Try manually entering/searching for your wifi access point under the "Other" option. Also, if you have lots of devices connected to your wifi, you may have reached your limit. (e.g. the airport express has a max of 10 while the basestation may have 50. Check your packiging on whatever router you have, may help.)

IPod Touch 4th Gen Battery Issue
My iPod Touch 4th gen drains the battery while sitting idle overnight. I listen to it all day at work with normal battery usage. When I got home I charged my touch to 100% then left it disconnected in standby mode overnight and in the morning the it is down to 50%. I checked and there are no apps running in the background. What on earth is happening? I also have a 3rd Gen Touch, with all the same apps and it does not do this.
I have 2 4th gen Touch and they are both behaving the same way.
Any ideas?
Is it possible that FaceTime is polling or something?
Message was edited by: Appleuser73I am having the exact same problem. I even wiped out my ipod touch, took out all the apps, and turned off all notifications, wifi, bluetooth ect... Then I fully charged it to 100% and left it in stand-by all night. The next morning it was so dead, I had to plug it up and wait about 5-10 minutes until it would even turn on. I sent it back to apple, and they sent it back to me, saying they tried to recreat the issue but it never happened to them. I am at my wits end with it now. And when I sent it to apple, I asked them if I should take off the screen protector, because the man on the phone told me they would probable send me a new one. Well, they sent me the old one, so they made me take off a $23 screen protector, just for them to send me back the old one. I could just scream. Oh and did I mention I sent it scratch free, and got it back with a lovely arrangement of scratches on the back. Thanks apple. You will be hearing from me soon. Let me know if ayone else gets this issue resolved.

Ipod Touch 4th Gen - itunes only pretends to sync
i have an ipod touch 4th gen 32gb (fw 4.1) that won't sync with my pc. the initial sync worked fine as all the songs and apps were transfered to the touch. now that i wanted to put some new tunes, vids and apps on it, but itunes doesn't do anything. whenever i press sync, everything looks just fine. the little window says: sync step 1, bla bla and finishes syncing without adding or deleting new/old content. i tried every option possible i could think of. i even 'downgraded' my itunes from 10.1.1 to 9.2.something.
i found out that by clicking the little arrow next to my ipod, i was able to drag and drop my music, playlists and vids there, but what about my apps?
the next day i tried adding new music by doing that, my whole music and video library was gone and the content of the touch won't show up in itunes anymore (when i click the arrow). and since itunes wouldn't sync my touch, i now got an ipod without any music.
english isn't my native language, my apologies if i got some stuff wrong
thank you guys in advance
btw: is the equalizer issue of ios 4 solved with 4.2.1?http://www.apple.com/support/ipodtouch/troubleshooting/

I have a refurbished ipod touch 4th Gen. I am having problems backing up because the cloud is almost full. I have tried to delete some apps/pics but it won't let me. Do I need to purchase more storage? Also, I accidentally erased all stored music. It is still on my personal computer and I need to know how to get it back on my ipod. A family member set it up for me.
You said " I accidentally erased all stored music.".
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Your iCloud backup does not include non-iTunes purchases like music from CDs
If on your iPod now:
Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device: Apple Support Communities
You can go to Setting>iCloud>Manage Storage and see what is using the store and delete items from iCloud -
My iPod touch 4th gen is stuck in recovery mode with a broken 'lock' button.
My iPod touch 4th generation is stuck in recovery mode with a black screen and I can't get it out. It has a broken lock button and I have tried everything to get it out of recovery mode. Every time I plug it into iTunes, it recognises my iPod and says 'iTunes has detected an iPod in recovery mode. You must restore this iPod before it can be used in iTunes, so I have restored it several times and every time, it says there is an unknown error. Please Help!! (my iPod is IOS 6.0.1)
What is the complete wording of the error message that says unknown error? Usually more information like a error number is also given.

What is wrong with the ipod touch 4th gen battery?
I have an 8gb 4th gen ipod touch that I purchased in December 2011. I charged it completely last night after doing a full reset, and by morning the battery was only at half charge. I've turned off all unnecessary services, no apps were running, no music/video play, just in sleep mode. Still the battery drained down at least 50%.
Is anyone else experiencing these problems? Have you found a way to extend the battery charge?Try this:
iPod: How to extend battery life
You did not say if the iPod was in airplane mode. That helps a lot. With iOD 5, the battery does drain faster than before. -
Why does my ipod touch 4th gen battery life drain so quick
I've had my iPod touch for a few years now, but recently The battery life drains very fast, even if I go on one app it goes down half way after charging it full, I don't know why? My iPod will last me 30-1hour, is there a way of fixing this? :-)
Try:
- 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.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem that indicates a hardware problem. Likely a bad battery.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one with a new batter for $79. They do not fix yours.

Music and Videos are gone after charging Ipod Touch 4th gen battery
The battery had completly died on my Ipod touch. Once it was fully charged, I unplugged it from the wall and turned it on, but all of my videos and music were gone!! However, my apps and photos were still there as well as my settings. What caused this?
Yes it did come 70% charged but I charged it, then drained it to charge it from 0% to 100%
the problem is from 0% it took 1 hour and 4 minutes 43 seconds to be fully charged to 100%
This doesn't seem normal as apple says it takes 4 hours. -
When this happened the first time, I seriously thought it wouldn't come back on. I was trying to crop something out of the of a photo and it shut off like it was dying (it was fully charged) and then froze, turned white, then an apple logo appeared. Once it turned on i went back to do what i was doing and it did it again. The next time it turned on, I went to play Design this Home, and it didnt shut off..so my only reasoning is that this happens when i edit a photo...i haven't done anything abnormal with my iPod and don't understand why this is happening...please please help!
That is a known bug in iOS 5.1.1. The iPod "crashes" when editing photos. Just do not edit photos and wait for the next update. Most users have said it crashes when editing screen shots.

Need help
Ok make sure you have iTunes 11. Then connect iPod touch to computer then iTunes should pop up automatically. After it opens on the bottom left there should be a tab where it says your name and then iPod. For example (Johns iPod) click on that then it brings all your information of the iPod including restore and updating.
Dont worry
