Quick Question about Moving from iPod Touch 2G to iPhone 4

I've had an iPod Touch for just over 2 years and am planning to get the Verizon iPhone 4 as soon as it is released. Does anyone know if I will be able to move all my apps with their data to the iPhone? For example, I have a weight watcher type app where I have been recording what I eat, weight loss, etc for months. I'd like to bring that information with me. Plus my game scores and levels I've beaten, etc. Before, when I have plugged in a new device iTunes has asked me if I want to restore data from my iPod 2G backup or from my iPad backup. If I do that, will it give me the desired result?

Ignore the previous post, as it's quite obvious the poster has no idea what they are talking about. App data is stored in your touch backups. Restoring your new phone from that backup will restore the data to your new phone. Follow the directions here:

Things like that happen and is normal.
If you can't turn it on:
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- 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.

Question about Shipping new iPod Touch

I ordered my iPod Touch on September 4th 9AM and said to deliver Sep 17 with Overnight. Online, if you buy now it is said to ship within 3-5 days, and you can purchase the 1 day shipping.
If you purchase the online one now, that mean it would get shipped to your house by 13th with the maximum of business days to ship from their warehouse; 5 days is the max. Should I repurchase my iPod since my pre order is not going to get to my house till the 17th? Sounds to me, like they ripped off the pre orders. ><

I ordered mine on the 1st. Was told the estimated delivery is between the 10th and 14th. But, I got it already. It was shipped out on the 6th from China. So, it took about 2 days from oversea to my hands. (China-->Alaska-->NY) So, I think you should get it early next week.

Question About Texting on iPod Touch

Against my will I am being dragged into the world of texting.... that being said please forgive me if this is a "dumb" question but I'm a real "texting newby".
If I receive a text message on my phone ( not an iPhone )from someone that may, or may not have the same wireless carrier as me can I reply to that person using some type of texting application on my iPod Touch? If so, where can I find instructions?
Thanks !
Chuck :- )

I use a free app I downloaded called textPlus. The itouch will only be able to send messages with a wifi connection. The person receiving the message will be charged for receiving your text. But messages you send from the itouch will be free.

Question about a lost iPod touch 4

I have an iPod touch 4 that I gave to my employers' 6 yo son. The touch is linked to my iTunes acct. Question: They lost it, out of state. They have looked for it, including gone back to stores, etc. Before I consider it gone, I was just wondering if by chance my contacts would automatically be on there, since I have a contact set up for me with my phone number and address.(maybe someone would be nice and mail it to me) Also, would I know if someone erased it? No, I did not have find my iphone set up on it. I don't think my account has been compromised I have an iTunes card balance that hasn't changed and no unauthorized purchases. How safe am I, and should I change acct info?

lost/stolen
- Someone may email you if you did not have the screen lock passcode. If I found an unlocked device I would go to the Settings>iTunes and App Store and send an email to the Apple ID email address.
No app on the iPod is required.
- If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected, on a computer browser go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up or continue to show off-line.
- You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
iCloud: Erase your device
iCloud: Use Lost Mode
- If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
- Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
- There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.
- Apple will do nothing without a court order

I have a question about the new ipod touch

I just got a 32GB ipod touch a week and one day ago and now i hear that a new one with more features is coming out. This is'nt fair since the new one has more features but costs $100 less than when i bought mine. Since i bought it recently is there anyways i can return it and get the new one instead? My ipod is still brand new without any scratches at all since i put a case on it as soon as i took it out of the box.

I purchased a refurbished iPod touch 8g about 10 days ago. I am thinking of sending it back. The question is it really worth the hassle? In Canada the 8g is going to sell for $259. I think I will loose 10% restocking fee plus shipping it back. Thoughts ??
Is it worth it?
Should I just upgrade the software and call it a day? Or get the new one.
Ideas...thoughts...opions???

Yet another question about transfer from iPod to PC

I realize there have been a couple similar questions regarding this, recently, and I have read the answers and the guides within help. The trouble is this: My hard drive on my PC died!! I had to replace it. So, the new hard drive has no music library at all. I need the new library to match what's on the ipod, for further music downloads and automatically updating the ipod, etc.
I followed directions in "Copy Music to New Computer". At the point where it says to go to My Computer and double click on the iPod (while it's connected, of course) and you're supposed to see a few folders here. One of them should be a folder called iTunes. You're supposed to be able to drag it into your My Music iTunes folder. However, that folder does not appear!! Only Calendars, Contacts, and Notes folders are there. There definitley is music on the ipod. So, why is there no folder there? I can't figure any other way to get this stuff back in my library.
Please help.
I could re-import most of it ,I guess, and start over, but if I can't get the stuff that's only on my ipod, the library still won't match. And next time I download new music, and iPod updates itself from my library, I'll lose stuff.
Any ideas?

Try this.
Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), there's Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music and playlists etc from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.

Question about the new iPod Touch 5G?

When in October will it come out? On the Apple site it says it will come in October. Does that mean October 1st? Also i'm debating in which color to get I might get yellow or blue, do you think the yellow color looks sorta greenish? Many people are saying it looks green a little and I don't see it! But I think the pink looks orange. I saw a test video of the new ipod in the store and the pink looked orange lol. thanks!

When in October will it come out? On the Apple site it says it will come in October. Does that mean October 1st?
Unlikely. And only Apple knows. But when Apple is non-specific on a date, it almost never means the earlest date, and in some cases they have had to add days to the month, as in when the iPhone 1st gen was released it was the 32nd of the month :-)
Colors are a personal thing. If you have a store that sells iPod Touchs, then visit the store when they start to display them, and check out the colors in person, as colors on computer screens are rarely "True" colors because most monitors are not calibrated.

A few general questions about the different iPod Touch models

What is the difference between the 2nd Generation and the 3rd Generation iPod Touch?
How often do they release a new generation model?
Does anyone know yet how the 4th Generation model will compare to the 3rd and 2nd Generation models?
Thank you.

What is the difference between the 2nd Generation and the 3rd Generation iPod Touch?
See:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ipod_touch#Models
As to when a new model might be released and what it might feature, no one here knows or can say. We'll all just have to wait and see. As Sandra indicated, you can read the various rumor sites, but as to what rumors if any you can believe, your guess will be as good as ours.

A quick and easy question about my NEW Ipod Touch.

Okay, I broke down and replaced my old ipod. This new one came with earphones, a cord to connect it to my computer and a little plastic piece that obviously fits on one end of the ipod. Here's my question: WHAT IS IT FOR?
Thanks in advance!
Annie

It's a dock adaptor. There are some devices (eg. speaker systems) which have a slot that fits the 30-pin dock connector for iPods, but the slot is the same size as the iPod Classic, as it is the largest iPod that is compatible with such systems. The dock adaptor that came with your iPod is supposed to fit around the base of your iPod and prevent it from being bent forwards or backwards, as this can damage or even break the dock connector.

Questions about moving from Mobile Me to iCloud

I just upgraded my iPhone to iOS5 and am curious about the move to iCloud for my mobileme account. I know there are articles out there, but they seem very generic and do not put my fears to rest.
Here are my questions and concerns. I figure they will be easy for a lot of you to answer, but I need to pose them before I make the jump.
1.) Do I need Lion to move to iCloud? (from the articles I read I'm pretty sure the answer is yes, but I thought I'd clarify)
2.) I have more than one mobileme account that has calendars and mail synced on my computer. If I upgrade one account do I have to upgrade the other at the same time for iCal and Mail to work?
3.) My husband's mobileme account syncs his work calendar. It is very important that I don't lose his information and that his calendar works flawlessly after the upgrade. Has anyone run into problems with the calendar syncing? I will not move anyone's accounts if iCloud is still experiencing a lot of bugs. I will of course make a backup copy of his calendar before upgrading, but his calendar changes often and is synced to two iMacs, a Macbook Pro, Mac Mini, an iPad and an iPhone it will not be practical to keep track of his calendar and if it is syncing properly.
4.) How do I actually make the switch to iCloud once I make up my mind to do it? My Phone told me to sign into me.com to do this, but when I signed in I didn't see how to say that I wanted to use the iCloud. Maybe this is because I haven't upgraded to Lion yet?
Thanks!

I am curious about the comment you can only use one iCloud account at a time. Right now I have my moblieme calendar and my husband's mobileme calendar both visible in iCal. That is very convenient for us because then he doesn't have to open up a separate user on the iMac just to check his calendar (this is our home computer that is mainly mine). Are you telling me that I won't be able to use both CalDAV accounts in iCal anymore? Will it force me to use only one?
Most of our music and videos was purchased under my .mac account, so iTunes isn't a problem, but we like to share one user on the computer and still be able to see both our calendars and e-mail.

New iPod owner - Quick question about iTunes and iPod

Hey everyone. I just bought the new 5.5G black 30GB.
I have a lot of untagged MP3s, but my boyfriend tagged most of them. After I overwrite the untagged files (but with the same filename) with the tagged files, now that I have all of my music on iTunes and on my iPod, how do I get iTunes to do a mass refresh and see all the tags, so it can show them properly and update the iPod accordingly?
Also, my new ipod keeps crashing! It keeps freezing when I hit the skip button or try to do something when it's loading a video or a song. It just seems really unstable. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!

oh sorry i misunderstood you
this is from i-tunes help - is this any good
Song titles look scrambled after importing from another application
If a song's title and information don't appear correctly, the file was probably created using a program that stores information in a different way from iTunes. You may be able to resolve the problem by reversing the Unicode characters in the song tags.
To reverse the Unicode characters:
Select the song and choose Advanced > Convert ID3 Tags.
To select multiple adjacent songs, press the Shift key while you click the song titles. To select multiple songs that are not adjacent, press the Control key and click.
Click Reverse Unicode.
To change the information back to what you had before, choose Reverse Unicode again.

Question about transferring apps from iPod touch to iPhone 5

I currently own a 3rd generation iPod Touch. If I buy an iPhone 5, can I download all the apps purchased for my iPod Touch to the iPhone using the same iTunes account?

Yep. There is no limit to the number of iPods, iPads, and iPhones you can sync to one iTunes library, computer, or iTunes account.
