Hello,

I read all these questions and answers, great forum by the way!

It was good to read that more people share my frustration with my nearly brand new itouch (Dec-08). After google'ing "itouch no wi-fi" and finding many hits, this one one of them, and browsing and reading most of the hits, I could not see a single answer that indicates rootcause and solution.

I had the same no-wifi-problem for a long time before taking action and contacting Apple around 2 months ago. As still in warranty (1year), they replaced my itouch, on a process that end-to-end took about 5-7 working days.

The new one arrived on 14th July and was perfect, looked like a brand new one, although could be a refurb, don't know. Wifi was working perfect and no issues. I re-sync'ed all my 15GB of music, apps, etc, registered device etc and now, 1 month on from receiving it, wifi stopped working.

I did nothing wrong with it, I am very sure, because it has been only 1 month and I use it almost exclusively in my 1h10m jog every morning.

Could anybody help me please?

I don't want to send yet this other one back to Apple and wait another 5-7 working days for a replacement, and not have my itouch, especially because my main use is to listen to music, which is unaffected by lack of wifi.

My frustration is, i invested my time in this, and i am back to where i started... So same steps do not seem to be a wise choice...

I look forward to a reply... All the best!

Tina

Go to Settings, then to Safari. Then go toward the bottom and clear cache, clear cookies, and clear history. Then hold down the top left button on your iPod to reboot the machine.

When it comes back on your wifi should be working. I'm glad this worked because I didn't want to have to go in to an Apple Store and wait for a refurbished iPod touch to come in the mail or whatever. I also though water damage was the reason for mine stopping working but apparently not!

I hope this helps!

Thanks, it fixed the problem.
