Also, how effective is enabling a passcode in preventing someone to use your ipod touch? I'll be going to college soon, so this information is very important to me.
Got a tip for us?

The best way to protect it from theft is to bolt it directly to your skeletal system.
Seriously, just take care of it. Treat it like you would your wallet... don't leave it lying around.
As far as the passcode, no one can use the touch without it. It's that simple.

this would not work on ipod touch, no constant internet from cell service. if you can guess the passcode, you get in, if not, you don't.
They've actually recently come out with this amazing new security system for the iPod Touch (and other portable media devices and phones) - I'm seriously considering investing in one for myself. Check it out!

If someone really wants it, they will get it, wipe the memory, and use it like it was always theirs. Best way of protection, treat it as your wallet/money/car keys. Engraving your iPods and such is recommended by mine and many universities.
Hello loneapple24
It is not possible to protect 100% from theft but you can do some changes which is mentioned in below.
You can go to the Setting section of your Pageonce account on the web, located in the upper right hand corner of your AtOnce page. Under the section for Mobile Access, select the option to block any mobile access to your account. This will stop your lost or stolen device from accessing your Pageonce information.
Even you can go under the Settings section of your application, you can register your device by serial number so that your device and your device alone can access your Pageonce data.
Hope it will help to you.
