Why won't Apple register the serial number for my ipod?

Apple won't register the serial number for my ipod purchased at a Walmart.  Also noticed there is no settings icon in the upper left corner and can't connect to my own internet connection at home.  Any suggestions?

Purchased new.  Did not try to register thru iTunes.   Just wanted to  hook up via my wi-fi connection at home.  Why won't Apple register my serial number without hook up to iTunes?

    Can I get the serial number for my ipod from itunes?

    Do the following:
    Launch iTunes on your computer.
    Hold down your Control key, then on the menu bar in iTunes click iTunes>About iTunes (Mac) or Help>About iTunes(PC).
    Any previously synced devices will scroll in a pop-up window; press the space bar to stop scrolling so you can write down the serial number.

  • How do I register the serial number for Acrobat when the window disappears?

    I want to use Adobe Acrobat for the first time and I got a window for the serial number.
    I had the wrong paper in my hand and typed the serial for CS5 which was denied.
    I found the correct paper with the serial number for CS 6, but the window for typing it in doesn't
    return to the screen.
    I can see a getting started window flash by, but it doesn't stay on-screen long enough to read what it says.
    I don't know how to get the window for the serial number for CS6 to be entered.

    Hello Judy,
    one way is to deinstall your CS6 in combination with a reboot. After reinstalling should CS6 start now with the registration mask.
    Good luck!

  • Can anybody help me find the serial number for my ipod touch on the apple website because it got stolen and i need the sereal number?

    i have done this before but i forgot how.
    i want to see a list of all the products registered in my name.

    You cannot find the ipod using the serial number.  You can give it to the police, so if they find it they can identify it.
    You can indeed find your serial numbers:

  • How can i find the serial number for an ipod classic

    I dont have the original packaging or the reciept, It wont connect to itunes or my laptop and all that shows on the ipod's screen is a red circle with a cross inside it. I have tried to reset it but have not been able to. Any help would be much appreciated

    If your iPod Classic was the last device that you connected to and synced with your iTunes library, there is a chance you might be able to get the serial # to show up in the Device Connectivity diagnostic report. See here for instructions on running this test.
    iTunes for Windows: Device Connectivity Tests
    Otherwise, if you have previously registered the device with Apple, you can view it's serial # in your list of devices you have registered under your Apple ID.
