Setting Up Custom Email on the iPod Touch

Since the iPod touch does not allow you to use emails other than the ones provided (Gmail, dotMac, Yahoo, Exchange) — it's really a frustrating thing how you can receive emails but not send them unless it's one those types of email accounts. Thankfully, I've figured out a simple workaround by using Gmail to auto-forward the mail from your other accounts. That way you can send outgoing mail from the iPod touch perfectly. The reason outgoing mail didn't work before with your custom email accounts was that they needed the use of your ISP (Internet Service Provider) for the outgoing messages.
Here's the link if anyone wants to see it:

Please email me if you have any questions!

Hello,
Yeah this is definitely a missing feature rather than a glitch. These mobile applications are a lot simpler than their OS X counterparts. Please leave feedback for Apple:

Setting up optonline email account on ipod Touch

i just got the 32GB ipod touch. i am trying to set it up to send and receive emails from my optonline.net account and i am having trouble. i can receive emails (yeah!). but it won't let me send emails. i think it has to do with the primary server account. i don't think i have it set up correctly. can anyone help me????

I think it has to do with setting a port with the outgoing email server. I can't see how that is done as of now, but will reply if I can figure it out.

Custom repeats on the ipod touch

I just got a new ipod touch and overall i love it. Just one glitch that I am finding. I would really like to use this in place of my PDA, but I can not figure out how to enter custom repeat events in my touch. The repeat options are only, daily, weakly, bi-weakly. If I want to enter an event that happens only on weekdays, or only on Mon, Wed, Fri, I have to enter it as daily in the touch and then edit it once I sync with my computer which is a huge hassle.
If anyone knows a work around, or if I am missing something I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks

HT4113 I never set up a passcode for the ipod touch but now it's asking for one?

I have an Ipod Touch. Mostly my son uses it for games. We've never put a password on it but today we cannot access it - it's asking for a password. what the heck do I do?

Connect the iPod to its syncing computer and restore via iTunes. You may have to place the iPod in Recovery mode to allow the restore.

Trying to set up kiddos e-mail on ipod touch

I am trying to set up my kid's email on the Ipod touch, keeps giving me error. I think I am going wrong with the IMAP vs POP. Which one am I supposed to be using--feeling very stupid right now)-: Thanks for any help I can get!!

Only few accounts/providers allow you to select IMPA or POP3. Usually you have no choice and you have to use the type that the provider provides. Have yo looked at the email support webpage for the provider? If you state the name of the provider someone here may be able to help.

Why is the iPod Touch (4th Gen) missing the video setting for TV Out?

Has anyone else noticed that in the iPod Touch (4th Gen) that there isn't a video setting for TV Out? It's not on the new iPhone either. I wanted to attach an AV Composite cord from my iPod to my TV. It won't work because of the missing video setting. You would think that since this is new technology, it would have that setting. After all, my iPod from 2005 has that feature and works just fine with the $39 AV Compostie cable from Apple. I was hoping to display what I have on my iPod Touch to my TV, but discovered that I couldn't. When I called Apple, they thought at first I had a defective cable. But later told me that i OS 5 left out the video out feature as if by mistake. Could anyone elaborate on this issue? I would appreciate it. Thanks!!

I am well aware that setting was on the iPod before iOS 5! My question is why is it missing? Because right now, Apple is selling the AV Composite cable claiming it's compatible with the iPod Touch (4th Gen) and it's not. Thank you!

Does the ipod touch sync email???

Hi guys
I am thinking about buying the Ipod touch. I am used to syncing my email to a palm device (yes, I still use one). The folks at the apple store can not tell me if the touch can sync my apple mail inbox, so I post the question here.
thanks
Marco

When I fiddle with my iTouch - other than using it for listening to music - I'll click on the mail icon. I see both my Yahoo mail and gmail accounts snyc'd from the mother ship. So, yes, it does snyc your email. But I've heard that Hotmail doesn't work - only seems to be Yahoo and gmail. Hope this helps. The device is pretty wild.

How do you change the default email on an ipod touch so i can verify it?

Settings>Mail>Default account.
I do not understand what that has to do with verifying the email address.

iTunes is already pre-installed on all new Macs. Do you mean that you updated it from Software Update?
Your iPod Touch problems should be posted in the iPod Touch forums. It's where the iPod users hang out.

My email address cannot be verifed to be used with face time or messges. but works otherwise on the ipod touch

my email cannot be verified on my ipod touch to be used for messages or face time, although I can send and receive emails from the ipod. I have deleted the eamil account and re-installed in and I have tuned the ipod off and back on

Try here:
