  • Why wont my iPod touch let me download a big app?

    I have 1.4 GB of space on my iPod. I keep trying to download a 618 MB app, however, it says I need more storage. Yes, I can download smaller apps.
    Why is this happening? What do I do to fix it?

    You need to delete some stuff from yur iPod to make more storage space available.  The iPOd requires over twice the file download size to install an app.

  • Home button on ipod touch not working!!! how can i fix it? no warranty!!!!

    my ipod touch home button is not working everything on the ipod works fine but the home button. i have to turn off the ipod and then turn it back on as a substitute fix. has anyone else had this problem? if you have any ideas or know how to fix it please help!!!! I've read that if i put a drop of alcohol or acetone on the home button it should fix the problem but im affraid of adding liquid to it and it stop working all together.

  • After updating to ios5 lost all my apps on ipod touch and cannot get them back how can i fix this?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If you are saying you can't turn off find my phone because it is still using an old ID, you need to change your ID back to the old address at My Apple ID turn off find my phone then change your ID back at my Apple ID.

  • Why wont my ipad air let me download any apps or get rid of some that i dont want? it all started after i updated it

    i just gotted a ipad air and decided to updated it to modern times. since i done that i cant get any apps or get the apps to do the 'wobbly' thing if i want to move or get rid of the apps.
    if there is a way for me to download apps or get rid of the apps i have now then please tell me.
    HELP!
    i can still see logos for the apps and go search for them but when i click on the app it just give the discription of it and not the the little button that is suppose to say 'install for free' or '$$$"

    Yeah, I know I can restore it, but I might as well go ahead and try. I just finished a backup for icloud and itunes to make sure, I'll go ahead and restore it and set it up as new and see how that works. Seems like I have no other options at this point, I'd still like to know what they did with the Download tab in itunes store, if they removed it or if I'm just overlooking it.

  • My iPod Touch 2nd gen keeps freezing up, how can I fix this? It will freeze for like a minute, then it goes back to normal, then in a few minutes it does it again.

    Question says it all.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    -  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    CAUTION
    Before you restore the iPod make sure that your iTunes library has the version of apps that are presently installed on your iPod. Many apps have been update and the update apps are not compatible with the 2G iPod. I would do that by deleting the apps from your iTunes library and then transfer them to iTunes. See:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer

  • Why does my iPod Touch have a white screen and how do I get rid of it?

    Why does my iPod Touch have a white screen and how do I get rid of it?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Apps store wont let me download free app due to previous purchasing problem? help!!

    apps store wont let me download free app due to previous purchasing problem? help!!

    Is the address on your iTunes account exactly the same (format and spacing etc) as on your credit card bill ? If it's not then that might be the reason that you are getting the security code error : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 ? If it is then you could try what it says at the bottom of that page :
    If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorizations have the correct information on file.
    And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express Lane, then iTunes > iTunes Store
