Wrong language on new ipod touch

I ordered my new 32GB iPod Touch direct from Apple about 4 days ago. It arrived today. I have two problems. 1- it is currently displaying everything in the wrong language and I can't find anything in the online manual on how to change it. 2- when I type in the serial number on Apples support site, it says it's incorrect. I own many Apple product and have never had this much trouble. What a disappointment.
Any thoughts or suggestions

To change language go to Settings>General>International>Language. I would call AppleCare about eh number problem.

  • I put in the wrong birthdate when registering my daughter's new iPod touch. When I went to correct it, it looked me out

    I put the wrong birthdate when registering my daughters new iPod Touch. It didn't let me establish a new account because the birthdate was too young. When I went to correct it, it continued the lock her new registration out. Now I can't successfully register her on iTunes with her correct birth year.

    i just opened my ipad, started my apple account/I.D. and realized I put the wrong e mail. I was having trouble correcting my I.D on the Ipad so I went to my laptop and make the proper changes/slash e mail address I wanted for my apple ID. I got back to my ipad and try to download an app I can't because I have to sign in my apple account and I can't because it still has the irrelivant I.D/email address..
    So, i did what you said.. went to setting>app store> tapped on my e mail.. it asked me to sign in (with my invalid emails address showing). I signed in with the password I had created. It said "incorrect".. I went to reset password. I reset password, tried to sign in and it says again "unvalid password".. this is getting irritating.  I have been asking and no one knows what to do.

  • I have a new ipod touch 32 gb.  I want to sync 2,250 songs from itunes, but it won't sync - it says I don't have enough space.  A 32 GB is suppose to hold up to 7000 songs!  I have not put anything else in it.  What am I doing wrong?

    I have a new ipod touch, 32GB, 4th gen.  I tried to sync the 2,250 songs I have in itunes to the ipod, but it says I don't have enough space.  This ipod is supposed to hold up to 7000 songs.  I haven't put photos or anything else in this ipod.  What am I missing?

  • I am trying to restore my new ipod touch and it is coming up as error, what am i doing wrong?

    I am trying to restore my sons new ipod touch i am trying to restore it but it keeps coming up as error 1611, i have removed all security software and tried again but it has made no difference, any advice?

    Error 1611: This error may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article. Alsoattempt to restore while connected with a known-good 30-pin Dock Connector cable, computer, and network to isolate this issue to the device. The MAC address being missing or the IMEI being the default value (00 499901 064000 0) can also confirm a hardware issue. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured proxy or security software, such as FoxyProxy, can cause error 1611. To troubleshoot third-party security software, follow these steps.

    As the article says, you may have a hardware problem.

  • HT1212 my daughter has a brand new ipod touch - never used - she entered a passcode then immediately forgot it and now she has tried to enter one too many times and ipod is locked for 1 hour - she has never synced with itunes HELP

    my daughter has a brand new ipod touch - latest one - she started to input a passcode then didn't finish the process then turned off ipod. she turned it back on and it is asking for a passcode - she doesn't remember what she typed. Ipod is now disabled for one hour. Can we override the disable. How do we reset passcode when we don't klnow the original. It has never been synced to Itunes. I am completely lost.

    If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode
    iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
    iOS- Understanding passcodes
         If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
         below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
         simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
         same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
    A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
    If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
    Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
    Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
    Follow these steps to restore your device:
         1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
         2. Connect your device to your computer.
         3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
         4. Select the Summary tab.
         5. Select the Restore option.
         6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
             option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
             necessary to create another.
         7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
             you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
         8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
             logo while starting up:
               After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
              to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
              iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
              you see "iPhone is activated."
         9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup. If you do not have a
              backup to restore, then restore as New.

  • Brand new iPod touch 4gen and it is not recognized by iTunes or computer?  Help....

    I have an ipod 4gen and when I try to install it to download music from iTunes it is not recognized.....however when I first connected it it asked if I wanted Word to look at my pictures via camera....I wonder if it thinks my device is a camera????  Help pls!!!!!

    Ok....now when I get iTunes to see the device it named it what I have named another iPod ?...and used the current serial number of the new iPod touch.....and it says it is synching the iPod touch.....however, it it really backing up onto the cloud and has been doing this for over 9 hours????  I think something might be wrong....or is it really making a backup copy?   Really confused if I should just unplug everything and take this stupid thing back to the store....much happier with my nano 16gb :). So much easier to figure out.  Btw I synced it and it worked just fine...while doing the backup thing today?????   Anyone, any ideas?  Thanks.

  • TS1538 i cant get my new ipod touch 7 to be recognized in itunes? Please help!

    I cant my new Ipod Touch 7 to be recognized in Itunes?  Please help!  I'm trying to sync my music and book files with the new Ipod buts it not even listed under devices.  I have an old Ipod that I was using prior to this one that shows up under devices but not the new one.  Im only promted to transfer from what appears to be my old device?

    Alright, right after posting my question I figured it out. I plugged my iPod into one of the USB ports in the front of the MacPro and it worked like a charm. Now the problem is, what is wrong with the two ports in the back of my Apple Cinema HD screen? That I can't figure out clearly. The USB connection from it to the MacPro is connected.

  • New ipod touch and Harman Kardon boom box:

    New ipod touch and Harman Kardon boom box:
    I must say I am very disappointed that I cannot charge my ipod while playing music anymore.
    I had no problem with all other ipod generations. Can this somehow be fixed?
    While the Harmon Kardon boom box was posted on the apple web site as recommended. And Now???
    Has anyone information regarding this issue??

    I'm having a similar problem with my new touch 3rd gen, with a Sony clock/radio/docking model ICF-CL75iP.
    No sound coming out of the speakers, and no picture or video showing on the radio's LCD screen.
    Sony replied to me that it's intended to work with any ipod touch 1st and 2nd gen but not with 3rd generation. Whose fault it is? Wrong software from Sony or Apple?
    I guess I'll try to downgrade the firmware from 3.1.2 to the previous one. If not then I'm stuck

  • Brand new ipod touch won't display home page

    Hi Folks
    Just bought 2 new Ipod Touch's for the kids for xmas. One turns on fine and went straight to the home page and allowed me to personalise it but the other one starts up and just displays a picture of the USB cable and an upward arrow pointing to an ITunes symbol. It won't allow me to go to the homepage. Have i done something wrong????? Help

    It needs to be restored.  The only way to do that is to connect it to iTunes and restore as new.

  • Brand new Ipod touch won't charge or turn on

    I recently got a brand new Ipod touch. The first thing I did was plug it in to charge it. A red battery icon showed up on the screen. I left the ipod on the charger for hours and the icon was still red. It won't turn on either. I have tried connecting it to ITunes but the red battery icon just comes up whenever I plug it into the computer and it does not show up on itunes. I am new to the ipod touch so maybe I am doing something wrong, or is there a fault in the ipod??
    Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated,
    Thanks!

    First try reset.
    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.

  • New iPod Touch Facetime - Contact does have Facetime button

    My wife and I recently got new iPod touches (iOS Version 4.3.5) and we wanted to use Facetime to chat with one another. I set up facetime on each iPod touch with our Apple IDs and emails, made sure Facetime was turned on in Settings on both touches, but the contact page for neither of us has a Facetime button to press. For this initial test we are using our home Wifi connection and the connection seems fine. Any ideas as to what I am doing wrong - it is supposed to be so simple, but it is making me feel simple.

    Never mind, I figured it out - you just press the email, there is not "Facetime" button.

  • New iPod touch blinking on and off repeatedly

    I just bought a new ipod touch today, and once I plugged it in to my computer, it showed the apple logo, but then the screen went haywire by blinking on and off. When it's blinking on and off, the screen looks frozen.
    I've hardly touched it, what do i do? Someone please help. (please spare me any sarcasm)

    Actually, after I got the iPod Touch replaced, it had the same exact problem, which I suspect that I'm just very unlucky because my computer is relatively new. I've been trying to figure this out for weeks.
    I did take my iPod back to the store where the associate talked down to me and kind of made me feel stupid (on their computers, nothing is wrong..but at my house, it's pretty much cursed) ..so yet again, I am trying to get the iPod replaced and figure out what is wrong.
    I also tried calling, addressing two problems (one of which is irrelevant). They pretty much gave no answer for this question. They told me to restart it, but as I said, no button works after it shuts off.
