Getting Started
WARNING:To avoid injury, read all operating instructions in this guide and safety information in the iPodtouch Important Product Information Guide at www.apple.com/support/manuals/ipodtouch before using iPodtouch.
The iPodtouch User Guide, optimized for viewing on iPodtouch, is available at help. apple.com/ipodtouch. View the guide on iPodtouch: In Safari, tap bookmark. , then tap the iPodtouch User Guide
Viewing the User Guide on iPodtouch
Add an icon for the guide to the Home screen: When viewing the guide, tap , then tap Add to Home Screen. The iPodtouch User Guide is available in many languages. View the guide in a different language: Tap Change Language at the bottom of the screen on the main contents page, then choose the language you want.

Similarly, when you disable contacts or calendars in an MobileMe or Exchange account, or if you delete an account, iPodtouch asks if you want to keep information or delete it. You can add contacts using an LDAP account if your company or organization supports it. See Adding Contactson page84. You can subscribe to CalDAV or iCal (.ics) calendars. See Subscribing to and Sharing Calendarson page75.

Push Accounts

MobileMe, Microsoft Exchange, and Yahoo! Mail are known as push accounts. When new information is available, such as the arrival of an email message, the information is automatically delivered (pushed) to iPodtouch. (In contrast, fetch services require your email software to periodically check with your service provider to see if new messages have arrived, and then request them to be delivered.) MobileMe and Exchange also use push to sync your contacts, calendars, and bookmarks (MobileMe only) if you have those items selected in the account settings. Synced information is transferred automatically over your wireless connection; you dont need to connect iPodtouch to your computer to sync. iPodtouch can receive pushed data over a Wi-Fi connection only when iPodtouch is awake (the screen is on, or iPodtouch is connected to your computer or a power adapter).
If youre in an enterprise environment, you may be able to set up accounts and other items on iPodtouch by installing a configuration profile. Configuration profiles provide a way for system administrators to quickly set up your iPodtouch to work with the information systems at your company, school, or organization. For example, a configuration profile might set up your iPodtouch to access the Microsoft Exchange servers at work, enabling iPodtouch to access your Exchange email, calendars, and contacts. Configuration profiles can configure multiple settings on iPodtouch all at once. For example, a configuration profile can set up your Microsoft Exchange account, VPN account, and certificates for secure access to your companys network and information. A configuration profile may turn on the Passcode Lock, requiring you to create and enter a passcode for using iPodtouch. Your system administrator may distribute configuration profiles by email or by putting them on a secure webpage. A system administrator may also install a configuration profile directly on iPodtouch for you.

iPodtouch has an internal rechargeable battery. The battery isnt user accessible and should only be replaced by an authorized service provider.

Charging the Battery

WARNING:For important safety information about charging iPodtouch, see the Important Product Information Guide at www.apple.com/support/manuals/ipodtouch. The battery icon in the upper-right corner shows the battery level or charging status.

Charging

Charged
Charge the battery and sync iPodtouch: Connect iPodtouch to your computer using the included Dock Connector to USB Cable.
Important:The iPodtouch battery may drain instead of charge if iPodtouch is connected to a computer thats turned off or is in sleep or standby mode.
If you charge the battery while syncing or using iPodtouch, it may take longer to charge. You can also charge iPodtouch using the Apple USB Power Adapter, available separately. Important:If iPodtouch is very low on power, it may display one of the following images, indicating that iPodtouch needs to charge for up to ten minutes before you can use it. If iPodtouch is extremely low on power, the display may be blank for up to two minutes before one of the low-battery images appears.

Maximizing Battery Life

iPodtouch uses lithium-ion batteries. To learn more about how to maximize the lifespan and battery life of your iPodtouch, go to www.apple.com/batteries.

Replacing the Battery

Rechargeable batteries have a limited number of charge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced. The iPodtouch battery isnt user replaceable; it can only be replaced by an authorized service provider. For more information, go to www.apple.com/support/ipod/service/battery.

Security Features

Security features help protect the information on iPodtouch from being accessed by others. You can set up a passcode that you must enter each time you turn on or wake up iPodtouch. Set a passcode: Choose General > Passcode Lock and enter a 4-digit passcode, then enter the passcode again to verify it. iPodtouch then requires you to enter the passcode to unlock it or to display the passcode lock settings. For addition information about using a passcode lock, see Passcode Lockon page119.

Restarting and Resetting iPodtouch
If something isnt working right, try restarting, force quitting an application, or resetting iPodtouch. Restart iPodtouch: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPodtouch. To turn iPodtouch back on, press and hold the Sleep/Wake until the Apple logo appears. If you cant turn off iPodtouch or if the problem continues, you may need to reset. A reset should be done only if turning iPodtouch off and on doesnt resolve the problem. Force quit an application: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on top of iPodtouch for a few seconds until a red slider appears, and then press and hold the Home button until the application quits. Reset iPodtouch: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. For more troubleshooting suggestions, see AppendixA,Troubleshooting,on page150.

Music and Video

iPodtouch syncs with iTunes on your computer to get songs, videos, and other content youve collected in your iTunes library. For information about adding music and other media to your iTunes library, open iTunes and choose Help > iTunes Help.
Getting Music, Video, and More
To get music, video, and other content onto iPodtouch, you can set up iTunes on your computer to automatically sync content in your library, or you can manually manage the media you put on iPodtouch.
Syncing Content from iTunes
You can transfer music, video, and more onto iPodtouch by syncing content from iTunes. You can sync all of your media, or you can select specific songs, videos, podcasts, and iTunes U collections. Set iTunes to sync iPod content automatically: 1 Connect iPodtouch to your computer. 2 In iTunes, select iPodtouch in the sidebar. 3 On the Music, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, and iTunes U tabs, select the content you want to sync to iPodtouch. For example, you could set iTunes to sync selected music playlists and the three most recent episodes of your favorite video podcast. 4 Click Apply. Important:If you delete an item from iTunes, it will also be deleted from iPodtouch the next time you sync. Only songs and videos encoded in formats that iPodtouch supports are transferred to iPodtouch. For information about which formats iPodtouch supports, see Song, Video, or Other Items Wont Playon page153.
If there are more songs in your iTunes library than can fit on your iPodtouch, iTunes offers to create a special playlist to sync with iPodtouch. iTunes fills the playlist with random selections from your library. You can add or delete songs from the playlist and sync again. If you listen to part of a podcast or audiobook, your place in the story is included if you sync the content with iTunes. If you started listening to the story on iPodtouch, you can pick up where you left off using iTunes on your computeror vice versa. For more information about using iTunes to get music and other media onto your computer, see What You Needon page7.

Settings allows you to customize iPodtouch applications, set the date and time, configure your network connection, and enter other preferences for iPodtouch.
Wi-Fi settings determine whether iPodtouch uses local Wi-Fi networks to connect to the Internet. Turn Wi-Fi on or off: Choose Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi on or off. Join a Wi-Fi network: Choose Wi-Fi, wait a moment as iPodtouch detects networks in range, then select a network. If necessary, enter a password and tap Join. (Networks that require a password appear with a lock icon.) Once youve joined a Wi-Fi network manually, iPodtouch automatically joins it whenever the network is in range. If more than one previously used network is in range, iPodtouch joins the one last used. When iPodtouch is joined to a Wi-Fi network, the Wi-Fi icon in the status bar at the top of the screen shows signal strength. The more bars you see, the stronger the signal. Set iPodtouch to ask if you want to join a new network: Choose Wi-Fi and turn Ask to Join Networks on or off. When youre trying to access the Internet, by using Safari or Mail for example, and you arent in range of a Wi-Fi network youve previously used, this option tells iPodtouch to look for another network. iPodtouch displays a list of all available Wi-Fi networks that you can choose from. (Networks that require a password appear with a lock icon.) If Ask to Join Networks is turned off, you must manually join a network to connect to the Internet when a previously used network isnt available. Forget a network, so iPodtouch doesnt join it automatically: Choose Wi-Fi and tap next to a network youve joined before. Then tap Forget this Network.

Registering iPhone

Registering iPhone with iTunes enables iTunes to identify your iPhone when its connected to your computer and help you manage its contents. You can then sync information with your computer and media from iTunes, and create backups of iPhones contents and settings. You can create an iTunes Store account, or specify an existing account, to enable purchases with iPhone. iTunes also records iPhones serial number in the event you need it for service or in case of loss.

You can adjust sync settings whenever iPhone is connected to your computer. Ringtones, music, audiobooks, podcasts, iTunes U collections, videos, and applications can be synced from your iTunes library. If you dont already have content in iTunes, the iTunes Store (available in some countries) makes it easy to preview and download content to iTunes. You can also add music to your iTunes library from your CDs. To learn about iTunes and the iTunes Store, open iTunes and choose Help > iTunes Help. Contacts, calendars, notes, and webpage bookmarks are synced with applications on your computer, as described in the following section. Contacts and calendars are synced both ways between your computer and iPhone. New entries or changes you make on iPhone are synced to your computer, and vice versa. Notes and webpage bookmarks are also synced both ways. Photos and videos (Mac only) can be synced from an application or from a folder. Email account settings are synced only from your computers email application to iPhone. This allows you to customize your email accounts on iPhone without affecting email account settings on your computer.
Note:You can also set up email accounts directly on iPhone. See Mail, Contacts, and Calendar Accounts. Purchases you make on iPhone in the iTunes Store or the App Store are synced back to your iTunes library. You can also purchase or download content and applications directly from the iTunes Store on your computer, and then sync them to iPhone. You can set iPhone to sync with only a portion of whats on your computer. For example, you might want to sync only a group of contacts from your address book, or only unwatched video podcasts. Important:You should be logged in to your own computer user account before connecting iPhone. Set up iTunes syncing: 1 Connect iPhone to your computer, and open iTunes (if it doesnt open automatically). 2 In iTunes, select iPhone in the sidebar. 3 Configure the sync settings in each of the settings panes. See the following section for descriptions of the panes. 4 Click Apply in the lower-right corner of the screen. By default, Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected is selected.
iPhone Settings Panes in iTunes
The following sections provide an overview of each of the iPhone settings panes. For more information, open iTunes and choose Help > iTunes Help.
Summary Pane Select Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected to have iTunes sync iPhone automatically whenever you connect it to your computer. Deselect this option if you want to sync only by clicking the Sync button in iTunes. For more information about preventing automatic syncing, see Preventing Automatic Syncingon page15.
Select Sync only checked songs and videos if you want iTunes to skip unchecked items in your iTunes library when syncing. Select Manually manage music and videos to turn off automatic syncing in the Music and Video settings panes. See Manually Managing Contenton page72.

Address Book, Google Contacts, Windows Address Book (Outlook Express), Windows Vista Contacts, or Microsoft Outlook 2003 or 2007 on a PC. (On a Mac, you can sync contacts with multiple applications. On a PC, you can sync contacts with only one application at a time.) If you sync with Yahoo! Address Book, you only need to click Configure to enter your new login information when you change your Yahoo! ID or password after youve set up syncing.

Installing Configuration Profiles
If youre in an enterprise environment, you may be able to set up accounts and other items on iPhone by installing a configuration profile. Configuration profiles provide a way for system administrators to quickly set up your iPhone to work with the information systems at your company, school, or organization. For example, a configuration profile might set up your iPhone to access the Microsoft Exchange servers at work, enabling iPhone to access your Exchange email, calendars, and contacts. Configuration profiles can configure multiple settings on iPhone all at once. For example, a configuration profile can set up your Microsoft Exchange account, VPN account, and certificates for secure access to your companys network and information. A configuration profile may turn on the Passcode Lock, requiring you to create and enter a passcode for using iPhone. Your system administrator may distribute configuration profiles by email or by putting them on a secure webpage. A system administrator may also install a configuration profile directly on iPhone for you. Install a configuration profile: 1 Using iPhone, open the email message or download the configuration profile from the website provided by your system administrator. 2 When the configuration profile opens, tap Install. 3 Enter passwords and other information as requested. Important:You may be asked to verify that the configuration profile is trusted. If in doubt, consult your system administrator before installing a configuration profile.
Settings provided by a configuration profile cannot be altered. If you want to change these settings, you must first remove the configuration profile or install an updated configuration profile. Remove a profile: In Settings, choose General > Profile, then select the configuration profile and tap Remove. Removing a configuration profile deletes the settings and all other information installed by the configuration profile from iPhone.
Disconnecting iPhone from Your Computer
Unless iPhone is syncing with your computer, you can disconnect it from your computer at any time. When iPhone is syncing with your computer, iPhone shows Sync in progress. If you disconnect iPhone before it finishes syncing, some data may not get transferred. When iPhone finishes syncing, iTunes shows iPhone sync is complete. Cancel a sync: Drag the slider on iPhone. If you get a call during a sync, the sync is canceled automatically and you can unplug iPhone to answer the call. Connect iPhone after the call to finish syncing.
