I've gotten really tired of people getting into mu stuff. I have a life and I would like for it to be kept private from others that are not wanted.
iPod touch, iOS 5.1.1
How do you know somebody hacked your actual iPod? I have never heard of that happening to anybody, especially if you haven't jailbroken the device. Are you sure they didn't just hack a specific account you may have used or accessed on the device such as your Apple ID or email?

Well they probably did hack into my actually iPod. Well that's probably what happen they got into my apple account or something but I don't understand how. I've changed my password a million times and someone always ends up getting into my stuff. How do I prevent this from happening?
Again, I have never heard of anybody actually being able to do that especially an iPod Touch as it doesn't have a constant network connection.
How do you know somebody hacked your account? What it is leading you to believe somebody has hacked one of your accounts? Just looking for a little detail and clarififcation.

BEcause when I woke up this morning all my history had been cleared and I didn't do it and than I got a message from someone relating to what was in my browser.
Do you have a passcode lock on the device? And does or could anyone else have physical access to it (while you are out, or sleeping, for example)?
For what you are alleging, someone would really need to have physical access to the device, and it would need to be unsecured (no passcode lock) so they could get into it.
A message from somebody you know or somebody you don't know? I agree with Michael though. This isn't possible unless somebody has physical access to your device.

Michael, yes i do have a passcode on my ipod. No i take it wherever i go and i sleep with it. Can't no one get to it without me knowing.
Planb77, it was someone i know. but the thing is is that that person is 20 hours away.
Have you ever given them access to any of your accounts? Have you tried confronting them about it?

I dont want to lose it again. I paid this friend to recover my ipod? What can i dl to prevent and avoid being hacked agai
Your Apple ID account was hacked. Likely because of weak password or readily know security questions.
I would make sure you have good security questions and change and make strong passwords for your Apple ID and all email accounts associated with your ID so they can't readily reset your password.
If Continuity is set up on a Mac using the same ID, Safari sites visited on the iPod will/can be shown on the Mac.
Use Continuity to connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac - Apple Support
Seems like you Apple ID account was hacked..
Make sure you have strong security questions that can't be readily found (your mother's maiden name is NOT good).
Make sure that you have strong passwords and security questions for the email accounts associated with your ID so they can't hack into them to gain control of your Apple ID.
Someone somehow hacked into my iPod from an different location and saw everything that I was doing even down to my browsing. How do I prevent this from happening?
