How do I get the downloaded app in ITunes to install

I downloaded the ebook reader but the app doesn't install, what the heck do I need to do to get the **** app to run?

I realized my error in Itunes. It was not pushing the application that shows in Itunes to the device.
Once I checked off this option I could get ITunes to download the app. to the ITouch.

How do you save your downloaded apps on iTunes?

After I returned my 8GB for a 16GB, of course I had to re-download all of my apps, which was a bummer.
Is there any way I can put a backup on iTunes so that if I ever have to return my iPhone (defective, damaged under warranty) I can plug it into iTunes and it will put all my apps back automatically?

Allan, my first post was responding to you, and your assertion that there was a prompt to defeat app transfer.
I realize that, and although I recalled such a prompt the first time I transferred an app to my iTunes library that was acquired with my iPhone, you provided there is no such prompt - so case closed in that regard.
The fact that the OP didn't even mention that he had synched the phone suggested a good possibility he hadn't - no psychic powers needed.
There is a possibility he did not sync his iPhone after acquiring apps with his iPhone, but just because he didn't mention that he had not synced his iPhone after doing so does not mean he didn't, which is why I asked the question. And until I know the answer *+for certain+*, without assuming he had not, there was no point in bringing up I have seen it reported here a number of times that apps acquired with the iPhone are not transferred to the iTunes library when syncing. You corrected me providing there is no prompt for not transferring apps, and you are also assuming the OP must not have synced his iPhone with iTunes after acquiring apps with his iPhone since the apps are not in his iTunes library. I responded to you in this regard because I have seen this reported here a number of times recently. You seem to be insinuating that I must be making this up for some reason because you don't specifically recall any of these threads.
Some more info re the circumstance, firmware/iTunes version, troubleshooting steps, etc., might be pertinent to this discussion. I'm asking this because you brought up that there were previous posts about this without revealing any useful info (as if merely mentioning them was supposed to have some relevance).
Until the OP answers the question knowing if he didn't sync his iPhone with iTunes for certain, *+there is no point in doing so.+* I mentioned this to you being relevant to your assertion that all apps acquired with the iPhone are transferred to the iPhone when syncing 100% of the time for all users who have installed firmware version 2.1 or later, which is not the case.
I'm far from perfect. I make mistakes from time to time the same as you and as everyone else does. I made a mistake providing some info that is incorrect, but until you become a top user in any category here, I suggest you avoid critiquing my posts with "oddly", "no relevance", and what I'm "inferring" regarding what I include with my posts.

How do I install a downloaded .dat park in roller coaster tycoon?

I founds lot's of fantastic parks on the web but cannot figure out where to place the .dat file in order for me to be able to load it from within the game. I'm hoping it will add to new games or saved games in the sandbox but maybe that depends on where it is placed?

How do I install the NHL app on my appletv 3?

Ok, it should be there. Go to settings - main menu to check it hasn't been hidden. Also check parental controls and see that location has been set correctly.
Make sure Apple TV is up to date (latest firmware is 7.0). DNS should be set to auto (settings - general - network).

An app is considered to be installed if it shows up in a Spotlight search of local volumes. Bring up a search window in the Finder by pressing the key combination command-F. Search This Mac for the name of the application. Delete all copies that are found.

TS1702 How can I get my downloaded apps to stop crashing after I try to access them?

How can I get my downloaded apps to stop crashing after I try to access them?

First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

Hi Demo,
Yes, I have not made myself clear, I apologise.
I have tried downloading apps from itunes in order to set up a game for my son, when I go to click on a link, be this in itunes, or on the web, Safari revolts back informing the address is invalid. I read by coping a link and pasting into the URL, this would do it, but not so.
My goal then, is to install Minecraft for my son, I would then download an app to allow this but I am unable to get this far due to Safari insulting the address I ask it to go to
The iPad is first generation
OS 5.1.1 Software up to date.
Thank you in advance for your time

I can't update or download apps in iTunes

I can't update or download apps in iTunes
Please help

Do you mind taking a screenshot and pasting it here? Go to the app store to the page of an application that looks messed up (install button not showing, no description, etc). Hit the lock and home buttons on your phone (the circle one and the one on top) at the same time, just click them down together once. Your screen should flash and you will have a picture of that screen in your photos. Can you post one here? If you need help posting a picture on these forums let me know and I will guide you through.

HT4009 remove downloaded apps from itunes

How do I remove downloaded apps in iTunes? Someof the apps I deleted from the device had a REMOVE indicator but others did not. They are still show in my iTunes when I connect my device to my computer. Doesn't this affect my memory in my device?

Howdy C2222,
If the apps were not put back on after the device was synced then no, it will not affect the storage capacity on your iPod. If you would like to delete them, you can in the sidebar of iTunes at the left toward the top under Library. There should be an Apps section along with Music, Movies etc.
