Something that i didnt understanded, is there GPS in the IPOD Touch?

Im about to buy IPOD Touch and I read that the maps app for exmple is using WI-FI for tracking me, i want to use a gps... is there?

Nope also, its just an iPod, no GPS, no SIM card slot. The battery life for the iPod touch isn't steller by any metric, the iPod itself is super thin, so if there were GPS, the battery life would probably last a one way trip since GPS is somewhat power hungry.
The Maps app isn't very useful at all on the iPod due to this reason.

  • ID3 tags that look fine in iTunes are ungood on the iPod touch

    I've got 60,000-plus MP3 tracks, collected over a decade, that were encoded by a variety of apps on Macs and PCs. The tracks look OK in iTunes on a Mac, but on an iPod touch, many songs are missing artwork, and others display the lyrics in garbled "mojibake" characters.
    If the garbling occurred in all the ID3 tags (Name, Artist, Album, etc.) of a track instead of just the lyrics tag, I'd simply reverse the unicode; but as it's not, the solution has to force the misbehaving ID3 tags/artwork to display correctly. I've tried selecting the problem songs and reassigning the ID3 tag, but iTunes can't or won't overwrite the bad tags.
    What does work as a solution is toggling the ID3 tags off and on by selecting the bad tracks in iTunes, right-clicking and choosing "Convert ID3 Tags...", then assigning "None" as the ID3 tag version. Next step is to select "Convert ID3 Tags..." again, this time choosing v2.3 or v2.4 as the ID3 version. That does the trick every time, stripping away corruption in the ID3 tags and forcing the tracks to accept artwork. However, it also truncates tags longer than 30 characters, and deletes existing lyrics and artwork. That makes for a lot of cleanup editing.
    Is there a way to make iTunes assign ID3 v2.3 to tracks so as to overwrite the corrupt tags without going through the steps I've outlined? If not, is there an app out there with the mojo to fix these corrupt files?

    If the song is in iTunes, and it is in a playlist that you auto-sync your Touch to, then the only things that might cause this problem are:
    1- Is this new song un-checked in iTunes? If your Touch is set to sync only checked items that would prevent it from syncing. If that's the case, just enable the checkmark next to the new song and re-sync.
    2- Is this playlist a smart playlist that is forced to be limited in size? If so, there is a bug with the 3.1.x OS such that smart playlists that are limited in size will have different contents (and sorted differently) when you compare the playlist on iTunes vs. on the Touch. The solution in this case is to disable Live Updating in the smart playlist definition, then the two versions of the playlist will agree.
    3- Is the new song tagged as "Skip when Shuffling"? If so, and if your Touch is in shuffle mode, then the song count in the playlist will not include songs that are designated to be skipped.
    See if any of those three things are what is going on. If not, then perhaps you need to reset or restore your Touch, but I doubt that.

  • Sync problem - earlier today I updated both iTunes and my iPod Touch. Since then, I have tried syncing the two. The iPod Touch claims that there is no music on the iPod, however, when I connect it to my computer it says my full library is on there.

At present, I am unable to listen to songs on the iPod when not connected to the computer. What can I do to fix this?
    Thanks for any help!

    - Have you reset your iPod:
    Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Next would be to backup your iPod and then restore you iPod from backup via iTunes.

    It's not that simple. You need a "smart" device to connect a hard drive to, like a Time Capsule, or another computer, or an Airport Extreme/Express that was made to share a drive, or some other brand router that has a USB port for sharing a drive, etc.

  • Will there eventually be an update on the iPod Touch 4g that enables Siri?

    I don't have anything to say here

    Short Answer: No
    Long Answer: The Apple iPod Touch will never have a update that enables Siri because Siri isn't supported on the iPod Touch 4th Generation becuase it doesn't have enough power to run such a processor intensive add-on and Siri doesn't just run off a client connected to the internet it runs on multiple Siri enabled internet server that the iPod Touch 4g isn't compatible with and most likely never will be.
    Hope this helps.

  • ITunes not showing songs that are on the iPod Touch

    I have an iPod Touch 4th Generation.
    I use iTunes 11.0.
    I usually connect my iPod Touch to iTunes and play songs from there because I do not put songs in my itunes library.
    I was doing this as usual and today when I connected my iPod Touch to iTunes, songs did not show up on the music tab of "On This iPod".
    Just the previous day, I opened iTunes and there were all my songs.
    Today, iTunes does not show any of my downloaded songs that were not bought from the iTunes Store.
    The iTunes Capacity Bar shows that I have songs on my iPod Touch.
    But when clicking on the iPod and going under the music tab in "On This iPod", there is no music other than a few songs, which were purchased from the iTunes Store itself.
    I also tried third party software just today to check if I can get the songs off my iPod.
    I tried using SharePod and it did not detect any songs, not even the purchased songs from iTunes.
    There are songs on the iPod Touch only. I can play all the songs from the iPod Touch just fine.
    They are simply just not showing up on iTunes.
    How do I get iTunes to show the songs on my iPod Touch? The capacity bar says there are songs.
    I tried SharePod a few times long before this happened, and it showed the songs on the iPod Touch.
    I don't understand why all of a sudden the songs all disappeared from iTunes itself only.
    (I would say this is similar to other issues where iTunes DOES show songs while the iPod itself DOES NOT. Mine is the opposite.)
    Thank you for the help in advance.

    I tried backing up the iPod Touch.
    Now all the songs on the iPod Touch (except for the purchased ones) are turned to blank names and are skipped.
    There is no name for each song or artwork, they all are called 'unknown'.
    Only the purchased songs are left unharmed. Everything else is corrupted now.

  • What does the iphone have that the ipod touch doesn't?

    i was just wondering what the iphone has that the ipod touch doesn't if there is anything. (Apart from the obvious phone and maybe the camera)

    The ipod touch has most of the same functions as the iphone with the exception of the phone, the camera, and the gps (and any features that require those functions). My wife uses one as an ipod, a very nice device, especially if you are normally in range of a wifi network.

    Got a black screen on the iPod Touch 4th Generation. Tried restoring it and holding the lock and hold buttons but this didnt work. Do i need a brand new screen?

    If you successfully restored to factory settings/new iPod via iTunes (Not via Settings>General>Reset>Erase all Content and Setting) and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem. Could be the screen or something else.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store..

  • Is there a Third Generation Ipod Touch?

    Unfortunately there are nitwits out there who hear one thing and warp it into something else. When I used to have an iPod touch, people came up to me all the time saying, "Nice phone!" However, those aren't the people I'm talking about. The people I'm talking about are the ones who hear about the 3G iPhone, and call it a 3G touch, and transform that into 3rd generation iPod touch.
    The best thing to do is go to the source and check the facts whenever you hear an interesting rumor like that.
    There are also plenty of rumors saying things like "There's gonna be $99 iPhone at Wal-Mart", which was a popular rumor until confirmed to be wrong by multiple sources. Rumors like that cannot be confirmed true or false, and until a reliable source says, you'll have to wait it out.

  • Can you give me some reasons about why I need to buy an iPod touch 5.Although I have the iPhone ,iPod nano, iPad ,MacBook pro,I think the iPod touch 5 is so attractive that I can't help buying it at once.If I have it,what I can do with it,can you tell me?

    All I can say is that I REALLY like my Touch 4th gen because I have all sorts of capabilities in a small form: e-mail, web browsing, news, weather, books, magazines, etc. etc.  Plus lots and lots of apps out there, including so many free ones.  I use the Cloud a lot so it's great to have everything sync'd to my MacBookPro (e-mail, Evernote, Pocket, etc.)
    It would be easier, though, to do some of this, especially magazines, on the iPad mini, but, again, I love the small size of the Touch. 
    As for the 5th gen instead of the 4th, the fifth has Siri and the 3D feature in maps, which are great.  And I'm sure it's a lot faster in iOS 6 than the 4th gen.  And cool colors! 
    Don't know if this helps . . .

    he menu button of the ipod touch (4th generation) is not working and the service center of ipod is asking us to pay for the fixation of the said item even though it's still on warranty. this is the case number 215866894. And the service center said that they don't cover that center part of the ipod so they're asking us money before they can fix it. We bought the ipod last december 8, 2010 and we brought it to the service center last april, 2011 here in the philippines. And until now they're not fixing it because they're asking us to pay half the price of the item which is 8,040 pesos..

    As advised, you need to call Apple about this.
