My iPod Touch is not connecting to my home WiFi

It shows the connection bars and displays a tick next to the name, but it will not open WiFi apps or webpages. I have had 3 iPods, and they have never been able to connect to the home WiFi, but they have connected to other networks.
Thanks in advance,

I think that you should check your Internet router. Some router does not allow connection to mobile device. Hope this helps thank you

TS1398 My Ipod touch is not connecting to my home wifi which should automatically connect.

My ipod isn't connecting. I've tried everything like typing in my whole network information but it says no network found. Also, all of my computers and phones are connected. I am literally sitting next to my router and NOTHING happens. Any reccomendations? Please help.

If not this:
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

Then
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.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

My Ipod touch won't connect to my home wifi.

Its been a week since my ipod touch can't connect to my home wifi. When I open the wifi, it shows me other wifis around me but my own. I even try resetting network under the ipod setting. It connects to other wifi, such as my school's and starbucks. Once I go home it doesn't show or connect. My router is boardcasting the ssid. and its not blocking my ipod touch's mac address either. I tried everything! Resetting network and turning off my router and modem.

- Try resetting the iPod. Nothing is lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next try Settings>General>Reset>Reset all Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts
and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults./new iPod

Two of our ipod touches won't connect to the home wifi. They have done before. All other apple devices connect fine. They can see the wifi devices, appear to try to connect (the circle whirls around) but connection doesn't complete. Ideas?

I have 2 of them that only connected for a day and then reset network settings and they connected again for a day now resetting network settings does not fix it either. My iphone used to work with my home network but after upgrading to the latest OS which is the same versions as the ipods it no longer works either. Acts the same as the ipods. It would seem that the latest tweeks to the OS is the problem with wifi connectivity.

TS1398 New Ipod touch 4 not connecting to internet although wifi is connected

My daughter's new Ipod touch 4 will not connect to the internet. It previously did but now Safari is saying it is not connected to the internet - although it is connected to the wifi network fine, and my older Ipod which is sitting right next to it is working without any problem.
Any hints?

My ipod 4 touch will not connect to my home wifi network since I upgraded to iOS 6

When I go into Utilities/WiFi on I see name of my home network. When I tap on it it asks for password. After I type in password/join, I get message "Unable to join the Ntwork ".....". I've tried the fixes suggested through a Google search to no avail. Any Ideas?

IPod Touch 4G, not connecting to safari, but WiFi icon is full blue!

I got an iPodTouch 4G today and I am having problems connecting to safari. The 'wifi' icon in the top left hand corner is full blue, so I am unsure of where I am going wrong!?!? I am becoming very annoyed

In the details of your WiFi connection what is listed for the IP address?
If it starts with 169 then it is self-assigned and your router is not giving your iPhone a LAN IP address. You will not be able to access the internet.
This problem might be resolved by simply restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds).
If you need more help please give the make/model of your router and some details of how it is configured, i.e., security type (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.

My iPod touch is not connecting to iCloud account, under iCloud settings has old email account and username that I have since updated and are working correctly on my iPad, any idea how I can reset this?

My iPod touch is not connecting to my iCloud account, under iCloud settings it has my old email account and username that I have since updated and are working correctly on my iPad, any idea how I can reset this on the iPod or otherwise? This old account info keeps coming back on my iPod and messing up access to my apple account and now the icloud. last time a system restore needed to be done to fix it....

It won't give me the option to sign out of the old account, it's that light grey color that you can't click on. And since it has the old email address that it's telling me to go into to verify the account, I can't actually change it... I'm stuck

My 2nd generation iPod touch will not connect with the newest version of iTunes (December 2012 update). My computer(windows7) says the device is connected when i plug it in, but it will not show up in iTunes. Can anyone help?

As said in the question, my ipod touch will not connect to the newest version of itunes. When I plug it in, my compter recognizes that a device has been connected, yet it will not show up in itunes. I didn't have this problem until I just updated to the new itunes. Someone help please!

iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
or
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
It still could be cable or contacts in the iPod since different contacts/conductor are used for charging and data

IPod Touch will not connect to wi-fi away from home

I realise this may not be a fresh topic but I've searched and cannot find an answer.
My Touch - more or less brand new - connects to my home wi-fi with no hassle. Syncs, the whole bit. Lovely.
But it won't work away from my home. It recognises wi-fi networks, let's me connect to them but won't actually let me access webpages or update my mail. The mail aspect is the biggest problem as I'm away from it most of the day and bought the Touch to solve the problem. It says it's updating but nothing is downloaded.
Accessing the internet, even with wi-fi apparently switched on, doesn't work either. I've even tried renewing leases on wi-fi networks but it still won't work. Please help.

Hello
Couple reasons for why iPod Touch will not connect to WiFi Networks outside the house
1. They are using Mac Address Filtering. Which require the WiFi address in your iPod Touch to be programmed into their WiFi Router. Not much you can do to fix that unless you know who owns the network and they are willing to add you
2. The networks are running in 802.11 n Speed only mode. Thus iPod Touch will not connect as the touch only supports 802.11 B/G connections. They could also be using the old 802.11 (A) connection on the network as well
3. As stated earlier they could have outdated Firmware/Software on the router. Thus making the router out of date and not able to connect modern day devices. So if you know the owner it may be advised they contact router manufacture or their tech to update the firmware/software and see if touch connects after
4. Outdated Touch Software. Ensure you have the latest free version of the iPod Touch Software. If you have yet to get one of the paid versions you may wish to research and or see if a friend has a newer software on their touch and is able to connect to the networks you can not.
5. WiFi Network security the hot spot is using. Sometimes old standard WEP security can prevent Touch from properly connecting and getting on the network. It is recommended if you know the owner or tech that runs it to try and use WEP 128 bit 13 character password or stronger more modern day wifi security.
If they are using 40/64 bit WEP. Try adding a $ and then the password that they provide you and see if you can connect.
If you get the time please visit your local Apple retail store so they can further look into the touch and test it on the store wifi network. If for some reason it does not work there and they determine possible HW service is needed they will speak about your in warranty options.

My ipod touch will not connect to wi fi.

My ipod touch will not connect to wi fi. I have tried reseting, I have the correct password. I even took my ipod back to factory and nothing. Any ideas/advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely. Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.
