I Moved From New York To Florida, But Kept The Same WiFi/Router, But The Maps App and My iPod Touch(4th Gen. & iOS 6) Is Still Registering My Location In New York.
For location the iPod uses the location of nearby routers that are in Apple's database of routers and their location. Thus it appears that Apple's database is incorrect. You do not have to be connected to the router, just within range.
Apple periodically updates their database based on information they obtain from iPhones, The iPhone has to have turned on the option to send info to Apple. no one has found another way to get the location of a router added/corrected.
You can confirm that by going to well-know place with wifi like Starbucks or McDonalds -
I got my screen fixed and the day i got my ipod touch 4th gen back the wifi doesnt work unless i hold it right up to my router. Roughly every foot I move back it loses a bar and if i leave the room it doesn't even have a signal completely. Could the screen replacement have tampered with the wifi capability? Also if it helps I switched internet providers and during the time when my ipod was being fixed a new router was installed and it doesnt seem to work unless directly infront of my ipod.
Take it back to where you had the screen replaced. They messed up the connection to the wifi antenna

I have lost the contents of my Address Book on my iMac Intel. The Contacts on both my iPod Touch 4th Gen. & my iPad 1st Gen. are ok but synching them with the iMac doesn't restore the Address Book.
John,
The synch with my iPad didn't restore my Address Book, but when I changed the Contacts preference on my iPod Touch & synched it my Address book was restored. Thanks for the help. -

- Try:

- 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 again.
- If still not successful time for an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. -
The home button on my iPod Touch 4th Gen. is not responding, any ideas?
The title kinda says it all, I have a iPod Touch 4th Gen., that I have had for almost 2 years. And it has worked wonderfully, up until a few day ago, when I noticed that the home button was getting harder and harder to push on. and then earlier today it just stopped working all together. To exit out of an app, I had to stut off the iPod and restart it again.
I have considered sending it to Apple, but at, $105 (estimated) I was wondering if there was any other ways to fix the problem. And I'm not even sure if it's a problem with the hardware, or the software.
Thanks!Try:

IPod Touch 4th Generation Home button semi-stuck, iPod Touch 4th Generation Home button semi-stuck
Hi,
this is my first post here.
My iPod touch 4th gen has been experiencing some problems with the home button lately. The home button is semi stuck. It works but I have to press it really lightly at times and really hard at other times. I don't know what happened. I let my little brother play with it for a day, and when he returned it to me it was like this. I tried recalibrating it but it was no good. I would try the alcohol method, but there's no alcohol allowed in my house. I tried asking my parents to get me a swab for this purpose and they refused lol. Should I try using a wet q-tip around the home button? Or should I try using my vacuum cleaner's pipe suction things on the usb port thing while holding down the home button? Any and all help is appreciated

My ipod touch 4th gen's button is broken
my ipod touch 4th gen's home button is broken and I don't know how to fix it. I'm pretty sure it's stuck, since it only works if I press on it really hard. I'm still under warranty, and I would be willing to get it fixed, but all of my stuff is on here. I've bought all of my music, apps, etc directly from the ipod, and since my laptop is broken i don't even have a way of backing it up. Is there anyway i could just get the button replaced, and not have to replace my ipod? Or is there anyway the apple store will back up my ipod for me?
Apple will only exchange your iPod for a refurbished one.
You should be able to redownload a lot of your iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
You man be able to backup to their computer and restore too. -
Apple ipod touch 4th gen lock button?
So the lock button of my 2nd hand iPod touch 4th gen is totally pressed in, (it was like that when I got it) and it was fine for about the first 6 months because I was using assistive touch to lock it but now it's started acting like it's being pressed all the time. I can barely use it anymore because it locks and unlocks it self about twice a second. I was just wondering if there was any way to reassign the button so that it stops flashing on and off all the time. Any help would be appreciated.
There is no way to reassign buttons.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Maybe they can help

The volume control on my ipod touch 4th Gen is gone,what should I do?
It just happen to me lately, so as I open the music while my earhones are plugged,I saw that there is no volume control on my screen but the song is still playing but I can't hear anything so I remove my earphones then I plugged it again then the volume controls show. I have to do this all over again just to listen to my songs. Also,when I try to play it on loudspeaker,the volume control is missing again. I already restore my ipod but it is still the same. My OS is up to date so my itunes are. what should I do? Does somebody experiencing the same? Somebody help. Thanks
Try #2 and #3 in link below. If neither work, you most likely have a hardware issue.
