Need to switch Apple ID on new ipod touch

My daughter got an ipod touch for XMas. Since we were away from our cpu at the time she used a friends Apple ID to setup. Now that we are home and have our own apple ID, we are trying to figure out how to remove the current ID from the ipod and login with our new one. Any help would be much appreciated!

You will also have to go to Settings>iCloud and sing out and sign in
Settings>FaceTime and sing out and sign in. Al You can Be Reached at and delete the old Apple ID email address and add the new one.
Similar for Setting>Messages
You may also have to go to Settings>Mail and if it includes an email account with there other persons ID email address.
Best would be to go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings and start over again.

Need help using Apple Hi-Fi with iPod Touch.

Are there any instructions for using an iPod Touch (third generation, iOS4) with the Apple Hi-Fi? I know it's supported from the Apple documents and I realize that it will not charge while using it but I just want to know how to make it work a little more consistently.
I had been using my 8GB iPod Mini with my Apple Hi-Fi in the bathroom. Recently I decided to start listening to Pandora and, maybe 4 times out of 10 I can get it to work just fine, but more often than not it will randomly shut down (every minute or so) or start playing through the iPod Touch's internal speaker and I need to keep restarting and/or undocking and re-docking until it's finally stable enough to run for the half hour our so I need. Once it finally works everything works (volume on the Hi-Fi, remote control, etc.). The display won't stay lit without changing settings but that doesn't bother me that much.
As I said, I have found the Apple documentation for the Hi-Fi that says it should work with the Touch (apart from charging) I just need some instructions on the proper way to connect and get it started initially. Any advice from people that have this working or even better any links to manuals or instructions that describe the correct way to do this would be greatly appreciated.

The answer is yes. I am using my iTouch with iPod HiFi

I have a new iPod Touch and one apple ID. I want to use My laptop aswell as my desktop computer for the one ipod, using the same apple ID. I have music on both computers and want to merge the two without losing any music or apps. How do I do this?

My iPod has music and apps from my apple ID that I downloaded to my iPod via iCloud and some apps that I got free from the store, straight onto my iPod, but my laptop has some music on it aswell, separate from my other library. I want to put the music from my laptop into my iTunes library which I want to use on both computers. Is it possible to do this?
Thanks.

- You can only sync an iPod to one iTunes library/computer. You can however, manually manage music and videos among different libraries.
Go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.
- If y wnat to switch syncing libraries/computer see:
go to iTunes>Help>iTunes Help>Sync your iPod....>Sync You Device>Set up Syncing>Sync your device manually and follow the instructions.

If all the synced media like music is in the iTunes library of the second computer it is very easy.

New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3 says it needs 11.1 but I cannot load that on my macbook using OSX 10.5.8 any way around this?

New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3, says it needs 11.1 or newer but I cannot load that onto my MacBook running on OSX 10.5.8 - is there anyway around this?

No. If your MacBook has an Intel processor you can update to OSX 10.6.8 and then install the latest iTunes.
A 5G iPod with iOS 7 requires that if you have a Mac you have OSX 10.6.8 or later.
You can get 10.6.8 here:

New ipod touch screens smashed how much would it be to get it repaired in an apple store?

Got new ipod touch for hristmas, someone knocked it out of my hands today and the screen has cracked, how much would it be to come to one of your stores and get the screen fixed?

Offically, the warranty does not cover user-caused damage, so you may have to pay Apple's standard charge for the iPod to be replaced. That said, though, it's been reported that in some cases, an Apple Store has replaced a user-damaged iPod touch without charge even though they're not obgigated to do so. So if there's an Apple Store near you, take your iPod there, politely explain what happened, and hope they can do something for you.
If not, you'll need to pay their replacement charge or find a third-party repair service and see if you can get the repair for less.
Regards.

Need help syncing new ipod touch to Itunes.

I recently bought a brand new Ipod touch 5th gen. I have the latest update for itunes, I want to start syncing music to my Ipod. My computer will not bring any info for this ipod touch into itunes. I had a 4th gen and I know that I seen on the right hand corner, under the search store, there should be a little icon with your Ipod below. No where is my Ipod been found. Every time I plug the USB cord into the computer, I don't see anything come on the screen. All I see is the battery charging on my Ipod. I'm getting frustrated with this Ipod not allowing me to get any music. What am I doing wrong? I also don't see any summary pane for me to reset to factory settings and start all over. how can someone help me on this? I tried turning on and off both the Ipod and computer, nothing, still the same and no Ipod is to be found on itunes. PLEASE HELP!!

Just what version of iTunes do you have? For a 5G iPod/iOS 7 you need iTunes 11.1 or later.. If you have a Mac yo need OSX 10.6.8 or later.
Does the iTunes still see the 4G iPod?
If necessary:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
Or
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

HT1420 I need to authorize my computer for my daughter's new ipod touch but there is no Store menu or Advanced menu in the new version of iTunes I just downloaded today. I can't see a way to do it.

I need to authorize my computer for my daughter's new iPod Touch but in the new version of itunes that just upgraded to day there is no "store" menu or "advanced" menu that I can see and I can't see a way to do it. So anything she buys with her i.d. won't transfer. Help!

Authorization and Deauthorization
Macs: iTunes Store- About authorization and deauthorization.
Windows: How to Authorize or Deauthorize iTunes | PCWorld.
In iTunes you use the Authorize This Computer or De-authorize This Computer option under the Store menu in iTunes' menubar. For Windows use the ALT-S keys to access it. Or turn on Windows 7 and 8 iTunes menus: iTunes- Turning on iTunes menus in Windows 8 and 7.
More On De-authorizing Computers (contributed by user John Galt)
You can de-authorize individual computers, but only by using those computers. The only other option is to "de-authorize all" from your iTunes account.
1. Open iTunes on a computer
2. From the Store menu, select "View my Account..."
3. Sign in with your Apple ID and password.
4. Under "Computer Authorizations" select "De-authorize All".
5. Authorize each computer you still have, as you may require.
You may only do this once per year.
After you "de-authorize all" your authorized computers, re-authorize each one as required.
If you have de-authorized all computers and need to do it again, but your year has not elapsed, then contact: Apple - Support - iTunes - Contact Us.

I cant set up a new apple ID on my new ipod touch 'due to server error' and I would like to make a new @icloud.com email address, so I don't think I can set up my new id on the computer... Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and sign out and sign i with the other ID

New iPod Touch needs to connect to itunes?

Hi
I just bought a new ipod touch and it didn't work out of the box. I had to connect it to itunes to register it (or something). Is this correct? The store assistant says all new ipods need this, but the Apple help desk person says it should work out of the box. Any comments appreciated.
I can't find anything on this via Search.
Thanks.

No, you have to set it up and configure it with iTunes before gaining full functionality of the iPod.

I have an old apple id on my itunes and a new apple id on my ipod touch 5th generation

i have a new ipod touch 5th generation and i have a new apple ID on there but my itunes is linked to a different apple ID which is my dad's, can put my new apple id on my itunes or do i need to create a new itunes?

You can go to iTunes>Store and sign out of his account and sing into his. Apps are locked to the account that purchased them
Just what are you trying to accomplish?

How do you activate the new ipod touch if it won't let you create an apple id?

I just bought 2 brand new iPod touch 32 GB products for my kids and can not create an apple id for them to be able to facetime, text message....etc? There are no instructions or real specific info from apple? I mean you have to have a email address to create the apple ID but hotmail and gmail...etc won't allow kids to have email addresses?

If you already have an account. they only need separate email addresses for FaceTime and Messages.

If necessary, create the email addresses/accounts in your name and supervise their use.

Will an Apple gift card (not an iTunes one) buy a new iPod touch?

I have an Apple Store gift card for $100 (this is not an iTunes gift card to buy songs with) and I would like to know if it could go towards purchasing a new iPod touch.

My new iPod touch 4th gen is not working only showing apple icon! Been on charge for ages! And have tried to re set it turning off coming back to icon screen then not doing anything from there! Help!

New iPod touch. Been working fine, needed charging so have charged it for ages. Only apple icon screen is appearing and nothing else! Have tried re setting still nothing! Help!

- See:
iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
- Try another cable. Some 5G iPods were shipped with Lightning cable that were either initially defective or failed after short use.
- Try another charging source
- Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
