Tracking brand new Ipod touch 32gb white

my brand new ipod touch that wasnt all the way setup was stolen how do I do go about tracking it?

Change your iTunes (Apple ID) password along with any other password that was stored in the iPod. If any passwords are associated with credit cards, contact the CC company and get your card replaced (with a new number). If any passwords are associated with a bank or any other savings institution, contact them also and discuss approprate action with them.
The "Find my..." function is pretty much useless if the device is in the hands of a thief. All that is necessary is for the thief to connect to any computer with iTunes and "Restore as new."
The only real protection you have is with the personal information on the device rather than the physical device itself. This requires action before the device is lost/stolen. If the device has significant personal information, it should have a strong 8-digit (or longer) password AND be configured for automatic wipe in the event of ten consecutive incorrect password entries.

I have a brand new ipod touch 32gb ipod touch. Upgraded to ios 7. open music app but there is no radio tab to select!!! All online help just says, "just select it".
I have looked at the "More" part but again radio is not an option.
Can you help?

Just wait a bit. Turn it off, then back on.
I don't know why, but after the update it doesn't show up right away.
When it finally does, you will find a red icon on the bottom of the screen, on the left side.

Brand new ipod touch 32gb - and I have to pay for 2.0 update ?!!

Surely this can't be true? ...if so it's outrageous. Just bought the ipod from an apple store in NYC expecting it to work like the ones they have on display.
Have I just been given old stock?
Cheers

hello,
it has almost been 6 yrs since i 'converted' to mac, leaving the horrible micro$oft world...
but now i get the impression that Apple is a lot more greedy now...
i want to buy an iPod Touch too, but i find this 'not logical' to sell the 2.0 update....
in a way, Apple is saying: "don't be the first ones to buy our things (be it iPod or iPhone) cuz u'll end up paying more than the ones who 'll buy later on at a better price"
this is something i 've learned through these 6 yrs of my Mac-life...
Apple should encourage people to be the first ones to buy their products by 'not' practicing these marketing/pricing practices....
ps: im though happy to still be a proud mac user, and that the OS X is 'cheaper' than Window$...

New iPod Touch 32gb stalls after starting sync, error 54, manual synce gets dumped

I just got this thing at Walmart last Sunday and its been driving me nuts all week! It's the brand new iPod Touch 32gb 4gen. When trying to sync it will start to load music then stall. Sometimes it gives error code 54, sometimes says it cant convert song, cant find song, or just stalls. If I wait anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour it will finally un-freeze and dump everything or say the connection has timed out. I've ran repair on iTunes from control panel, no help. Un-installed iTunes and re-installed it then tried synce, no help. I un-selected everything in the iPod summary so that it wont try to synce when I connect it and selected manual synce. Then I could sync a few songs at a time, but it still stalls after only loading a few songs on iPod. Tried dumping everything out of the ipod and start over, several times, no help. I've been 6 days, all day, every day, and half the nights getting a few songs at a time on this dam thing. I found when it stalls if I turn the iPod off to force it out of iTunes I can then restart iTunes, reconnect the iPod, manually select 15 to 20 songs and drag them to the iPod. A few times I got over a hundred to sync but usually 20 to 30 songs then it stalls. Then I have to do the whole thing over again. I had a little over 1200 songs out of the 1877 songs, 11.28gb, in my music library when the last time it stalled, it dumped everything. 4 or 5 days of manually syncing a few songs at a time, GONE. Just poof, all that work for nothing. The only thing left on it is 92 of the hundred something songs I've bought from iTunes. I'm ready to take a hammer to the dam thing and send it back to Walmart where I got it.
I'm using a Dell Studio 17 inch laptop that's about 4 yrs old running Windows 7 that I installed 2 years ago. I had a iPod nano 2gb that worked fine with this computer & iTunes untill it died last spring.
Why do you have it set up so that one little hickup and the dam thing dumps everything thats on it? I cant even stop it from starting to sync when I connect it because I need to see the settings in the summary for the iPod to change the settings, but I cant see that until I connect it, but as soon as I connect it, it try's to start the sync and stalls feezing everything.
Can anybody help me before this thing drives me completely over the edge!?

I have a older Dell Optiplex desktop computer running Windows XP. I copied the iTunes folder on my laptop to an external drive and plugged that into my desktop computer. Then connected the iPod Touch to the desktop. For some reason or other the computer thought the iPod was a camera and wanted to know which photo program to open with or for it. I never did get iTunes on my desktop computer to "see" the iPod and had to give up that idea.
When going into the My Computer or Windows Explorer - which is the one I like to use for working with my files- when I connect the iPod to my computer in Windows Explorer it will show the iPod. Open that and it shows Internal Storage, open that and a folder with DCIM shows below it, open that and a folder with 860OKMZO on it shows below that, open that and it has the 40 or 50 photos I saved from Facebook. That's it, there isn't anything else shown in its storage. The iTunes on my old Desktop doesn't see the iPod Touch either.
Even if the iTunes on my old desktop would work with this iPod Touch it wouldn't do me any good. I read in a post that once it is connected to a iTunes Library, if its connected to any other iTunes Library on a different computer it will dump everything that's on it. Which is totally stupid but I think they - iTunes - have it that way so that you cant share your music with somebody elses computer. But that also makes it so I cant manually sync one thing at a time with my own iTunes Library. I tried syncing my music first and after I got some of it on the iPod, in its summary I deselected the music sync and selected the movies or video's so I could manually synce a few to it to see if it would work. Bad move. As soon as I did that it dumped everything that was on it, then said that it could not sync the movies because the files could not be written. HUH? Why a video from YouTube could not be written beats me. But why did it dump all the music?
The last thing I did with it was put all the options in the summary in iTunes back to default, removed everything on the iPod that was left after its last dump, then disconnected it, closed iTunes, and rebooted my laptop and started over from scratch. Started iTunes, connected the iPod, after iTunes found it I opened the iPod summary, made sure everything except sync photo's was selected, then started the sync function. It immediately listed all the songs and the songs info in light gray under music on the iPod. It only got 2 songs copied, then stalled. I just left it alone to see what it would do. I opened the Windows Task Manager to see what it was doing. Even though the iTunes program appered to be stalled it was using 50% of the CPU. After about 15 minutes it showed a popup window saying the song could not be writen then another saying its connection to the iPod had timed out, then iTunes stalled and "not responding" showed in task manager and at the top of the iTunes window. After 30 minutes I had to force it to close with the Task Manager. By then it was after midnight and had been another 12 hours wasted messing with this thing.

Brand new ipod touch screen not working properly

My sons brand new ipod touch 32gb (well bought april 14) only occasionally will respond to the touch sceen, and when he does get into it the next screens dont work properly. Any suggestions?

Try #2 and 3 in link below. If neither help, it's most likely a hardware issue then. Contact Apple and get it serviced.

Got a white screen on my brand new iPod touch. Any ideas how to fix it?

Got a brand new iPod touch last night & as soon as I turned it on I got a white screen. It connected to iTunes fine & I did try to restore it with no luck. Any sugggestions would be appreciated!

- Try:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try the article again.
- If still problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Hello, I have a big batterylife problem with my brand new iPod touch 4Gen 8GB white. Please help...

Hello, I have a big batterylife problem with my brand new iPod touch 4Gen 8GB white. Please help?

What battery life are you getting? Is it short when you are using the iPod? When it is sleeping?

Brand new ipod touch suddenly stopped working. please help!

I was messing around on my brand new ipod touch and it suddenly crashed. it flashed a static-y black and now the screen is bluish white and won't change. I tried holding both the home button and the black button on top of the ipod and neither helped. I even connected it back to my mac book but nothing happened. please help! i've only had it for two days!

That sounds like a mechanical problem. You might want to insert and remove the headphone plug several times and see if it fixed the issue. If it does not, call Apple. 800-275-2273 in the U.S.A. and I think Canada.

Brand new ipod touch connected, device recognized, but nothing happens?

I bought a brand new iPod touch 2nd gen two days ago and as I was very excited to plug it into my computer, sadly, nothing happened. iTunes recognizes the device and can be seen under Devices, but NOTHING happens and there are no other functions to click on at all. No set up, just a blank white screen, and yet, the iTouch screen still says to connect it to iTunes which it already is....
I have reinstalled iTunes, restarted my computer many times, updated it to the latest iTunes version, and still this problem persists. Can anyone help me out please!
Thanks in advance.

Charging for software on a BRAND NEW iPod Touch?

Glad to hear people are now getting the 2.2 download to work. Has anyone gotten anywhere asking Apple for justification for a $10 software upgrade on a brand new iTouch purchased within 30 days and given as a Christmas gift? (I gave 2!) This is even crazier than "Microsoft think".
There was another post comparing this to an upgrade from Windows XP to Vista - NOT SO. You would know a PC's OS in advance and you could weigh the cost of the PC PLUS an OS upgrade against whatever features you might miss by not having the latest OS. If you bought a PC back during the pre-Vista release you either received a coupon for an OS upgrade when Vista came out or you knew that the PC came with XP and you were OK with it. There was no disclosure of any kind when I was researching or purchasing the Touch.
So, I ask again, does anyone have any words from Apple justifying this charge for their brand new iPod Touch? We're not talking about units purchased months ago, just BRAND NEW devices that are effectively 4 days old for the gift recipients.

Your iPods may be 'new' as opposed to 'used', but they were clearly not the latest models.
Any iPod that do not have the 2.2 software installed have to pay for it. This is because that the time they were manufactured by Apple and released the 2.2 software was not available. Apple sold those devices to the retailer before the 2.2 software was released and therefore you bought an 'old' model that is NOT entitled to the 2.2 software. It is not about when the device was sold it is about when it was manufactured. Apple do not know when the devices you have were sold to you anyway.
Apple does know the serial numbers of your devices and it does check to see if they are entitled to the update and clearly they are not as they were manufactured before the new software was released.
These are user support forums and are not manned by Apple. If you want Apple support then use the 90 day telephone support that came with your Apple product or the 12 month warranty which can be used in any Apple retail store.
You have not been 'flamed' in these forums we are just giving you the truth.
Just because you have a strange view or reality does not mean it is correct.

The app store on my brand new ipod touch offers me majority apps that cannot be used on my software. how do i find apps that will work with 6.1.5? this is frustrating, especially when purchased brand new.

Brand new ipod touch not working like it should??

I have a brand new ipod touch that i got last tuesday.and every downloaded app will stop working after i have had it for about a day..like it starts to load the app then just goes back to homescreen..all pre-installed apps work fine.
but i have tryed restoring my ipod and it doesnt really fix it because all the apps stop working just like before..and i have also tryed deleting and re-installing the apps but is still doing the same thing.
Is there a way to fix this or should i get it replaced??

Maybe your using too much Virtual Memory. Try holding the sleep/wake button and the home button until you see the silver apple.

The head phone jack on my brand new iPod touch 5th generation is not working properly

The head phone jack on my brand new iPod touch 5th generation is not working properly. It has sound without the headphones in but when I plug them in it has no sound, it's low, or poppy. I had only used my apple supplied headphones once before and it worked fine. I know it's not the headphones because I tried them on my girlfriends phone and they worked fine.

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
