Setting Up Google, Yahoo!, and AOL Accounts

For many popular accounts (Google, Yahoo!, AOL), iPod touch enters most of the
settings for you. When setting up the account, you can choose which account services
you want to use with iPod touch. Services you turn on are synced automatically
over the air without having to connect iPod touch to your computer. See “Syncing
Accounts
” on page 44.

Set up an account:

1

In Settings, tap “Mail, Contacts, Calendars.”

Tap Add Account, then tap Google, Yahoo!, or AOL.

3

Enter your name, complete email address, password, and a description. The description

can be whatever you like.

4

Tap the items you want to use on iPod touch. Available items depend upon the

service provider.
