Streaming via Ipod Touch  + Safari

I just went to NPR via my IPT and attempted to listen to Morning Edition
via their stream. Of course neither real player or windoes medi player are
on the IPT.
Any ideals on how to do this? or is this just a case of Apple loading in a
Real Player widget someday?

From Safari the only two plug-ins on the Touch are: a built in PDF viewer and QuickTime which can handle: MP4, MP3, etc... but it can not handle RealAudio format or Microsoft WMA format.
So most sites streaming video are using Flash these days and Flash is not supported in Safari. You'll find even if you go to www.youtube.com in Safari it will not work, this is why Apple had to create a separate application to allow YouTube on the device.
Apple is rumored to be working on Flash support via a firmware upgrade in the near future.

  • Am I able to upgrade and Sync Adobe Flash Player 10 to the iPod Touch Safar

    I have a faceBook account, on my faceBook in safari, not the faceBook App. from iTunes. There is a Game I play on FaceBook on my Mac in Safari but I can't Play it on my iPod Touch, it says in Safari that I have to upgrade and download the adobe Flash Player 10, I am not able to download the Flash Player on my iPod Touch of course but I am able to do so on my computer.
    is There a way to have that Flash player 10 to be installed and working on my safari in my iPod touch?
    I did try downloading and installing the Flash Player 10 on my Computer and then Syncing my iPod Touch with my Mac but that didn't work.
    Does anyone know if this can be done, to have the Flash Player upgraded and installed in the iPod Touch Safari through the computer some how?
    Mrs. Trisha Foster

    Adobe Flash is not available for the iPod touch so there is no way to install it and play games written in Flash.

  • Can not access home network via ipod touch, password entered  not accepted

    Can not access home network via ipod touch, password entered not accepted
    Trying to help my son set up his ipod touch to connect to the network and the password I entered is not accepted.
    1. Which password is required? I entered the password I use for logging into my router
    2. The home network is recognized, when selected it requires a password to be entered, but I am just not sure what password it is looking for to connect.
    I have not been able to find any information on this subject

    jersey0904, Welcome to the discussion area!
    You need to enter the wireless encryption password... not the administrative password for the router.

  • Mailing "group" contacts via iPod Touch?

    Hi all,
    Curious--is there a way to email a 'group' of contacts via iPod Touch? I have 23 students in any given year, and I would like to simply insert a 'group' name to have the names appear in the bcc" field. I'd really rather NOT type/select in each name one, by one, by one, by one..
    it's easily done on the Mac--is there a way to do it on the iPod Touch?
    Thanks

    Okay, so there isn't a way (yet) to do the "mail to group" thing. However, I found--via Apple Learning Interchange that there is such an app called Mail2Group that does that very thing--works with the Mail app on the iPod Touch
    and it DOES work..

  • Photos from iPhone go via photo stream to ipod touch, but when checking Mac air some go and some are missing.

    Up until now my photostream worked seamlessly with iphone, ipod touch, and Mac air.   Coincidence or not I took the update for iphoto a few days ago.   I now discover only some of my photos going in to photostream in my Mac Air.   Has any one experienced this problem.  
    This is my first time asking a question.   Sorry if I have asked it in the wrong place

    You should also ask this in the MacBook Air forum. This is the forum for the white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

  • IOS 4.1 issues: 2nd gen ipod touch: safari and weather

    In general i did not like what the upgrade from 3.1.3 to 4.0 did to my touch. It become soooooo sloooow on mail and had shortened battery life. However to be fair, the wifi range was improved a little and also network speeds. Clicking on settings however caused a blank screen for around 6 seconds (tap tap tap go the fingers...) whereas on 3.1.3 it was <1 second. Could not revert to 3.1.3 as the cert had expired by the time I got around to it (a couple maybe 3 days) so onwards and upwards...hoping that 4.1 might have fixed a few bugs
    (I should know better by now, majornumber.minornumber = upgrade with new bugs, majornumber.minornumber.yetanothernumber = most bugs fixed, like say dos 6.22)
    I took the plunge and upgraded to 4.1
    good news: some bugs are fixed:
    1. it only takes about 3 seconds now (vs 6 before) to open settings
    2. battery life seems a scosche better
    bad news and weirdness:
    1. safari was formerly the king of ipod browsers for me however OS 4.1 introduced a new bug into safari:
    on a site I scan a lot for finance news zerohedge.com/rss.xml it comes up fine as before to the first page via a redirect to reader.mac.com -
    http://reader.mac.com/mobile/v1/http%3A%2F%2Ffeeds.feedburner.com%2Fzerohedge%2F feed
    but when I click on any link in the wonderfully formatted for ipod/iphone RSS feed it now goes to a blank page whereas before it would snap up the RSS synopsis in a blink. Now nothing. On my macbook the feed wroks just fine as it always has of course there it's feeds.feedburner.com/zerohedge/feed without going through reader.mac.com
    Could be co-incidence except it was working right before the upgrade and then not right afterwards. Might be an incompatibility with reader.mac.com just introduced... oh well I will just have to write my own RSS formatter for ipod touch and make it work on any browser so I won't need a broken safari any more. Sad really as Safari had quite the edge before.
    2. *weather app* I live in San Diego, CA and I use the weather app a lot to check what the temperatures for the day and the week are likely to be.
    Right before the os 4.1 update I checked the temperatures for San Diego and it showed expected temps which agreed with the weather channel on the TV right in front of me.
    Now this is weird: right after the update, the temps on the weather app now show 7 F more than on the weather channel!
    I'm used to both the temps on the weather channel and the weather app agreeing to being off by about the same amount for where I live, I just add a few degrees to the high as we live a few miles inland from downtown.
    The only explanation for this new weirdness that I can think of is that 4.1 is somehow using location awareness to give more accurate temps (hah what would be the chance of that?).
    If that is the case then I'd like to be given the option to choose which zip to use.
    OTOH maybe its just an interesting bug....
    I tried deleting and re-adding San Diego, CA but same result, also tried switching off location services, no difference.
    Oh well I'll wait for 4.1.02 <wide-grin>
    So if you know how to fix these things other than me writing my own RSS reader and mentally subtracting temps to correct, let me know!

    several days later.... today the weather app is still broken:
    weather.com says right now 80F for san diego, ca but on the weather app on the
    touch it says 91F that's quite the discrepancy.
    I note that there have been numerous similar problems for folks after updates over the last several years...guess the wethaer app must have a continuuing glitch built into the software. Tried reloading it from 92093 and same result so it isn't a location issue.
    Can't believe I'm the only one with this issue given how many hits I get for similar issues on previous upgrades.
    Right now it is still soooo broken. Thanks for all the attention Apple, so nice to know y'all care. Love the "let's beta test on the live system" upgrade MO. If anyone should have a test suite for everything it should be Apple. Forget support looks like android is the place to go. see ya.

  • Issue with trying to connect to itunes via ipod touch 1stGen

    Hi, Im in the UK, & i have an ipod touch 1stGen and it refuses to connect to the itunes store via the phone, i get an error message: 'Cannot connect to itunes store'
    i have a router and wireless network which is working fine, as i have an iphone 3GS and that connects without fail, it will connect to the net using safari, that is working fine, its just itunes it wont.

    Michelle.

    Start by working through the suggestions in this Apple support document.  The cause could be any AntiVirus or Security you have installed and running on your system.

  • Ipod touch Safari not syncing Safari bookmarks with my MBP over Mobile me

    Hi -
    Just got a 16 GB Second Gen iPod Touch yesterday. I also opted to try out the free 60 day trial of Mobile me. For some reason the Safari on my iPod will not sync with and show all of the bookmarks I have on Safari on my MacBook pro. I went back and checked the settings and signed out and signed back into mobile me and reset what is synced, but still did not work
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Thanks
    M.

    1) Make sure you login to iTunes with your MobileMe account.
    2) Make sure you sync your Mac with the MobileMe System Preference Pane.
    * Be sure to go to the Sync tab and select Bookmarks.
    3) Sync your Mac.
    4) Now in iTunes, goto the Info tab. It should state that Your Bookmarks are being synced with your iPod/iPhone using MobileMe.

  • Lloydstsb Internet banking doesn't work on iPod touch safari

    have just set up and tested my iPod touch with my favourite sites, and all was well until I tried my Internet banking. If you try and log into www.lloydstsb.com Internet banking, you are just constantly redirected to the original signin page with no errors. I have turned on the debug option in safari, and do see 2 HTML missing tag errors when I try to log in, but this site works perfectly on safari for Mac and pc. There doesn't appear to be a "report bugs to apple" link in safari either, even with the debug output turned on. Has anyone else had this issue? I presume this issue will be present on the iPhone too.

    Thanks guys
    I am pretty sure the issue isn't with my bank. If you just go to www.lloydstsb.com and choose to log into personal banking, then hit the continue button under the login box (without entering any username or password) it will just reload the same login page. In any other. On a mac or a pc it will give you an error that you entered invalid details. I think it's an issue with safari on the touch.
    Is the product feedback page really the only way to raise this specific bug with them? I upgraded my tomtom firmware the other day, and it had a bug on my particular hardware. I hit the tomtom site, support area, phone number, then called them in the I'm and they were able to advise me that this was a known issue and could talk me through fixing it. That's what I call customer service, and this was on a 3 year old £70 piece of hardware. I aparently am allowed to raise only 1 support call within 90 days of my purchase, and that's it. I don't want to waste it on this one bug.

  • ITunes Store via iPod Touch WiFi download for Digital Booklet

    I purchased Drastic Fantastic/KT Tunsall's new music Deluxe Version. I note that the Digital Booklet extras did not download to the iPod touch via the WiFi download. Nor did they download on their own when I did the synch with my laptop. Finally I went into my iTunes account via my laptop and viewed my purchases. Sure enough they were purchased. I then use the check for purchases on iTunes and it still didn't catch the missing booklets. Finally I went into my account to report the trouble and they started to download.
    Are the booklets too big to come directly to the iPodTouch via Wifi? Are they supposed to download later on your computer when you go to the iTunes Store?

    All videos and digital booklets are downloaded separately after you have synced your ipod touch to the computer and your itunes library. Every album that has a digital booklet states this at the very bottom of the album list on wifi ITMS. When you try to sync a digital booklet to the ipod touch you get a error message stating that "Name of booklet cannot be synced to the ipod touch." Its not a size issue just simply that they are not compatible with the ipod touch.

  • Streaming from iPod Touch to an iMac?

    I just downloaded the NetFlix app to my iPod Touch 32 GB and lo and behold I can stream "instant watch" content from NetFlix to my iPod. But the screen is tiny. I know there are cables I can use to connect the Touch to a TV.
    But my question is: Is there a way to send the stream from my Touch to my iMac so I can watch on its screen?
    Thanks.

    Am wondering if you can stream TO and iPod touch (3rd gen)using iTunes? Would like to use the iPod as a substitute for my Airport Express.
    Thanks!

    Home sharing works quite well for me. Have you turned on Home Sharing in iTunes on your computer? Have you enabled in the iPod settings on your iPad?
    This morning, I was using Home Sharing to access my main iTunes library from my iPad and then was using the iPad to stream to the speakers in my kitchen which are connected to an Airport Express. I had not beeen able to get this to work using the Remote app. But this worked flawlessly.
