Why does my iPod Touch's capacity shrink everytime i restore?
When I first bought my iTouch 4, i have X amount of storage(i couldn't remember because it was a year ago. Then i had this memory issue two months ago, which is no matter what i delete, the itouch tells me i have no space and my itunes wouldn't read it! So i went to the apple store and they told me to do a restore which I did, and after restoring I had 6.5Gb capacity left! Then i was like ahh watever. Just two days ago I had the same excate memory issue again which happened after the iOS 5 updates(including 5.01), So i went the apple store again which got the same result: restore you itouch! Which I did again! But this time my itunes wouldn't recognized my itouch as iOS5.0.1 because i did the delta updates through the ipod itself. So i spent an hour downloading the new update then restored my itouch. But this time, i have only 6.35GB capacity left...... whattt?
because the software takes up more memory every time it updates. that means more features.

Why does my ipod touch 4gen keeps going back to home page when browsing on the apps store
Why does my Ipod touch 4 generation keeps going back to home page when browsing in the apps store.
I called apple 5 times today and asked me to restore it 3x the problem still exists. This problem starts to occur yesterday after upgrading to IOS6.
Apple customer service is not good enough as they cannot fixed the problem or tell me that I can change the unit as I just bought this 2 months ago.Because there is a bug in iOS 6 that effects the 4G iPod touch.

HT1975 why does my ipod touch 4th gen can't detect my location?
why does my ipod touch 4th gen can't detect my location? i thought it was because updating foursquare. i have erased and restored its settings, but i was able to use my foursquare before even after the restoration, but now it's not working even my location services is on. Though, it can detect location in other areas, but it cant detect my location at home when before it used to check-in using foursquare.

No, the iPhone can determine location by GPS and cell tower locations neither of which the iPod can do. So the fact that it works on the iPhoe does not tell you anything. It could be that your router is not in Apple's database. In that case you will just have to wait until they add it. Try using a public wi-fi source to see if location works there. -

why does my ipod touch keep charging when im not charging it ex. 77% 78% help me please
All batteries recover a bit when they sit for a little while. Also most iPod battery apps register only in 5% increments, because it is hard to really be accurate to the single percent. Just because yours shows in 1% increments does not mean it is actually accurate to that level.

Why does my ipod touch show up in iTunes then disappear?
Why does my ipod touch show up in iTunes then disappear? The computer seems to recognize it as a camera device, rather than a mass storage device. Does this have anything to do with the problem? When plugged in, a window pops up asking which photo program you'd like to use, and if you cancel, that's it. Even if you try to open a photo program, and download your photos off of the ipod, it still won't show up in itunes.
Have you had a chance to look at these troubleshooting pages? They may be of some help:

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.

Why does my iPod touch not work in hot climate
just returned from holiday and iPod touch would not work while sunbathing but was ok when returned to hotel room. Does it shut down if temperature is too hot?
Many thanks, Apple do indeed still sell the iPhone 4S however you are limited to 8GB which is quite restrictive but here's the link http://store.apple.com/uk/buy-iphone/iphone4s However new... Ebay, but check the seller, Carphone Warehouse but will be on contract and maybe Amazon, other than that I would do a bit of research and check if there are any other retailers, due to the popularity of the iPhone 4S it is rare to get a brand new high memory capacity phone, best of luck in your search

Why does my iPod Touch keep changing the date and year?
Whenever I charge my iPod Touch after it completely dies, Safari never loads whatever site I'm trying to go on and the date always goes to Thursday, January 1st, 1970. I noticed the time always changes as well. i.e. it's 10:47am now and the time on the iPod says 5:35am. I don't know how or why it keeps doing this. I didn't mind it the first 2 times, but this keeps happening everytime I turn it on. Does anyone else's do this??
Hi eskimoerin,
reset & software update could fix the problem.
Don't forget to backup your data from iPod. -
Why does my ipod touch turn off and not turn on for a while
every once in a while my ipod touch turns off and wont turn back on for a day or two. So why does it do this, it is from over use of the ipod?
Try the following fixes in order:
- Reset:
Reset iPod touch: 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.
- Restore the iPod from backup via iTunes
- Restore the iPOd to factory defaults/new iPod
If yo still have the problem you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
