Turning WiFi on is not an option on my ipod touch

I had to restore my ipod touch and now I cannot connect to Wifi.  Actually, when I go into settings it states wifi is turned off but its not highlighted so I can tunr it on?

See:
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

    I am confused. You said till you Erases all contents and setting yu could not turn it and iTunes did not see it.  How could you Erase all Contents and Setting if you could not turn it on?

    Symptoms
    In rare instances, the setting to turn on Wi-Fi on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch may appear grayed out or dim. You may see the following when you tap Settings > Wi-Fi.
    If this occurs, you can't turn Wi-Fi on, and when you try to turn Wi-Fi on, your device won't respond. If you're using iOS 7, Wi-Fi may appear to turn on and off in Control Center, but Wi-Fi won't respond.
    Resolution
    Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
    Restart your iOS device.
    Make sure that airplane mode is off by tapping Settings > Airplane Mode.
    Reset the network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings.
    Make sure that your device is using the latest software. To do so, connect your device to your computer and check for updates in iTunes.
    If you still can't turn Wi-Fi on, please contact Apple for support and service options. If you can turn Wi-Fi on but are experiencing other issues with Wi-Fi, please see these steps.

    Your device has a hardware failure and only replacement or repair will fix it.  Take it to an Apple Store or an Apple authorized service provider.

    Let the battery fully drain. After charging for at least an hour try:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    If not successful time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • How do I move my notes in the "On My IPod Touch" folder to the "iCloud" folder?

    How do I move my notes in the "On My IPod Touch" folder to the "iCloud" folder?  I don't see where or how they are being backed up and want to make sure that they transfer to my new device.

    Hi,
    I will recommend you to get a Mobile Me account, it can sync multi devices like an iPod Touch / iPad / iPhone, of course, included your computer flawlessly.
    For details, you can refer:
    http://www.apple.com/mobileme/
    If you not prefer to get a Mobile Me account, you can sync both devices by using computer.
    First of all, make sure the iPod Touch have not been ever synced by other computer. Otherwise, all the notes and contacts in your iPod Touch will be replaced by your computer information. (or iTunes will ask you to merge all the info, some data lost may occur.)
    Connect your iPod Touch to the computer, in the iTunes, your connected iPod Touch will be shown on the left column, select it, on the right hand side is showing your iPod Touch details. Then, select "Info" tab (on top), check "Sync Address Book Contacts" and "Sync notes" in the "Other" section. Then click "Sync"
    Suppose the selected / checked option will be synced. After sync is complete, eject your iPod Touch, connect your iPad, do the same setting as you did for your iPod Touch, and sync it.

  • I can not pull any file from mediathek to playlist since iTunes 10.5 . I get an forbidden sign in black. I see my ipod on itunes but can not pull (iOS 5.0) (ipod touch). On other PC all is working.

    I can not pull any file from mediathek to playlist since iTunes 10.5 . I get an forbidden sign in black. I see my ipod on itunes but can not pull (iOS 5.0) (ipod touch). And I can not synchronise...
    On other PC all is working.

    Tried to turn Avast off but the problem still there.
    I created a Playlist to my iphone using the musics already on it and the next try i could add new files to this playlist (and to the iphone) but if I try to add it the way I used to do (directly to the iphone) I still get the prohibited symbol.
    This is ok, since I can use it the way I want (so far, i didn´t try yet to add other files like PDF or CBR files) and find a way to add the files i want, but I cannot help to think how wierd this is...
    I just don´t like the way apple choosed to make possible transfer files to my device. I really like my iphone but my friends with Nokia and Android have an easier life on that matter...

    Download the apps on your syncing computer and then sync to the iPod. Note that you can only sync apps for the one syncing computer you use with the iPod. You can manage music and videos among different computer.

  • Push notifications are not working on current gen ipod touch

    Push notifications are not working on current gen ipod touch. I just got it a couple of weeks back. It is a refurbished model.
    It works fine on my iphone 4 flawlessly. I have compared the settings between the 2 and everything is similar. Not sure if there is anything specific that needs to be done for an ipod. Kindly advise.

    Yea...internet is working fine. tried everything. reset the network, turned off the notifications, rebooted and turned them on. Still not working.
    When I select auto settings, its asks for https url...what do i type in there?
    The most weird thing is that, it was working fine before the update :s

  • Purchased app and it has not shown up on my ipod touch.

    After purchasing app, it has not popped up on my ipod touch screen.

    Connect the iPod to your computer and select it on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (if you have iTunes 11 on your computer then you can enable the left-hand sidebar via control-S on a Pc, option-command-S on a Mac). Then on the right-hand side select the Music tab and select what you want to sync.

    This usually indicates you really have a 2nd gen unit. Check the model number on the back. A1288 is 2nd gen. A1318 is 3rd gen.
