VPN access
VPN (virtual private network) provides secure access over the Internet to private networks, such as
the network at your company or school. Use Network settings to congure and turn on VPN. See
“Network” on page 103.
Setting up mail and other accounts
iPod touch works with iCloud, Microsoft Exchange, and many of the most popular Internet-based
mail, contacts, and calendar service providers. If you don’t already have a mail account, you can set
up a free iCloud account when you set up iPod touch, or in Settings > iCloud.
Set up an iCloud account: Go to Settings > iCloud.
Set up some other account: Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
For information about iCloud, see “iCloud” on page 16.
You can add contacts using an LDAP or CardDAV account if your company or organization
supports it. See “Syncing contacts” on page 108.
You can add a CalDAV calendar account. See “Calendar accounts and settings” on page 75.
You can subscribe to iCal (.ics) calendars or import them from Mail. See “Subscribing to calendars
and “Importing calendar events from Mail” on page 75.
Managing content on your iOS devices
You can transfer information and les between your iOS devices and computers using iCloud
or iTunes.
 iCloud stores your photos, apps, contacts, calendars, and more, and wirelessly pushes them
to your devices. When you make a change on one of your devices, your other devices are
automatically updated. See “iCloud” on page 16.
 iTunes syncs music, video, photos, and more between your computer and iPod touch. You can
connect iPod touch to your computer using USB, or set it up to sync wirelessly using Wi-Fi.
Changes you make on one device are copied to the other when you sync. You can also use
iTunes to copy a le to iPod touch for use with an app, or to copy a document you’ve created
on iPod touch to your computer. See “Syncing with iTunes” on page 17.
You can use iCloud, iTunes, or both, depending on your needs. For example, you can use Photo
Stream to automatically put photos you take with iPod touch on all of your devices, and use
iTunes to sync photo albums from your computer to iPod touch.
Note: Don’t sync items in the Info pane of iTunes (such as contacts, calendars, and notes) if
you use iCloud to keep that information up to date on your devices. Otherwise, you might see
duplicate items.
