Hey guys,

My brother was using my iPod Touch and managed to toogle this pop-up window. Anyone knows how to do it?



Thanks in advanced,

If you're listening to music and doing another app, just double tap the home button. That brings the mini iPod controller up. It's not hidden, you probably just didn't know about it.

There's actually a setting where you can also chose other behavior.

Settings > General > Home Button

Yeah, that's definitely not an option.

That option is on iPhones, where the double-press can alternatively be set to bring up the favorite contacts in the phone app.

Oops, sorry about that. Missed the iPod part.

So on the touch, where did they put stuff like Date&Time, Keyboard, International, ... ?

Now I can finally have the Passcode on. Before I would have to enter the code every time I wanted to change a song .

Poor mukeshcb, he had issues.
