Adding Ipod Touch Apps doesn't work

Hi I'm new here. I just bought an Ipod Touch 3rd generation.
My problem is that I can't add apps to my Ipod. I already downloaded them from the appstore but i can't add them to my Ipod. If I click on my Ipod Touch in Itunes i can see all the apps I already downloaded. But to puch the button "Sync Apps" doesn't work. Everything is gray under Apps. I can't move the apps.
Please Help
Thanks

Welcome to the discussions,
Is your computer authorized in the Store menu in iTunes? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420
Can you download an app using the ipod and WiFi and transfer your purchases afterwards to your computer by using File->transfer purchases in the iTunes menu?
Apps can be downloaded again for free, so you can choose an app you already own: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Whenever I try to sync my ipod touch, it doesn't work.  The computer seems to get hung.  What could be happening?

    Whenever I try to sync my ipod touch, it doesn't work.  The computer seems to get hung during the back up stage.  It says it is backing up the ipod but nothing happens, for hours.  I eventually have to interrupt it and give up.

    I have the latest itunes.
    I tried resetting sync history.
    For this section:
    If the issue persists, and you know all your contacts, calendars, bookmarks and notes are on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch:
    Remove all of the contact and calendar information from Outlook.
    Select the device in iTunes and click the Info tab.
    Scroll down to the Advanced section, and under "Replace information on this iPhone/iPad/iPod touch" make sure Contacts and Calendars are not selected.
    Click Apply.
    This doesn't seem to make sense for my situation.  I don't sync anything between outlook and my ipod touch. 
    I have no other USB devices connected to my computer.
    I have no other Windows users on my computer - only me and I am the administrator.  However on my diagnostic, it said this user is not the administrator.  Weird.
    So I have tried to follow that you referred me to, but still I haven't got it working yet.  Do you have any further suggestions?

  • My Ipod touch apps are not working.

    My Ipod touch apps are not working. They attempt to appear but it seems like something is stopping them. They show up for less than a second then dissappear. Also all of my synced music dissappeared as well. I'm not sure if that is something in common?? I've tried resetting my ipod. I never link it to a computer, and that is why I synced my music from a friend. Please help me!

    Sorry I mean that I reset my settings. I havent reset the whole i pod. I want to try to keep all of my apps.

  • Ipod Touch 4g doesn´t work after firmware update

    Hello togehther,
    i had two times the same problem with my iPod. Apple sent me two times a new iPod, but i don´t want to have new iPods every two weeks, i want to have an ipod that works a long time.
    The problem:
    -I tried to install Apps, but it didn´t work, iTunes says the apps are "invalid".
    -When I update the firmware, at the end, there is the error message "-1" an the iPod hasn´t any firmware anymore. You couldn´t reset the ipod, because the error "-1" comes everytime and you can´t start the ipod anymore, because it has no firmware.
    Maybe the problem is because of the apps? Maybe a problem with my iTunes? Or what could it be?
    Thanks for help!

    The best place to look for help first is Genuine Apple help directly from Apple.
    Read the iPod Touch Users Guide.
    http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipodtouch
    Also start with the basics from Apple.
    1. *Restart iPod touch:* Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPod touch. To turn iPod touch back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    If you can’t turn off iPod touch or if the problem continues, you may need to reset iPod touch. A reset should be done only if turning iPod touch off and on doesn’t resolve the problem.
    2. *Reset iPod touch:* Press and hold both the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    For more troubleshooting suggestions, see Appendix B, “Support and Other Information,” on page 214.

  • Brand new IPOD Touch Apps no longer work after upgrading software

    I got a Ipod touch for my wife Today at Wal-Mart. I brought it home, connected to wifi and downloaded some apps and also payed for some. They all worked fine. Then I connected to computer to transfer songs. It told me to upgrade the Ipod software so i Did. After it restarted none of the downloaded apps work anymore. I have read MANY MANY MANY discussions on this and there is no fix. I am not wiping out all the songs and reload everything all over again. It will take forever. My wifes BD is Friday and this is making me so mad after I just dropped $300 on this thing. APPLE!!! Where is the fix? I deleted the apps and reinstalled they still don't work. Anybody got this figured out? I am getting ready to get my money back and tell everyone to avoid buying ipod until they get this upgrade bug fixed.
    Message was edited by: 2009 IPOD TOUCH

    I have the same problem. Brand new two days ago. I synched the touch with Itunes but wasn't hooked up to the internet at the time so didn't do the software upgrade right away. Then I downloaded about a dozen apps (free and paid) with wifi directly to the touch. They all worked fine. Then I plugged it back in to Itunes and had it upgrade it to 3.1.2. It locked up Itunes several times since then and the downloaded apps no longer work (they start to open then disappear).
    The problem is, no one is listening to this problem (including Anna above)! Everyone says "just do a hard reboot, or restore to factory settings, reload the apps, etc." I've tried all the standard troubleshooting but none of it fixes this. It sure seems to me this is a problem with 3.1.2 but Apple isn't helping out here. Where are you APPLE? Use some of those outrageous profits you're making to fix the problem you have created. Here's $300 of my hard earned dollars pretty much down the drain.

  • IPod Touch Apps don't work after connecting to PC!

    Hi, can anyone help please?
    I have an iMac at home and a PC at work, so use my iPod Touch between the two.
    However, after I've connected my Touch to the work PC, pretty much every application doesn't work, and they will only work again once I've connected it back at home to my iMac!
    Whatever application I open will start loading, then after about 3 seconds it just boots me back to the homepage...
    It's driving me mad as there's no logical reason for it that I can see! The only things that still work are the music, video, photo and itunes tabs at the bottom!
    However, once I've reconnected to the Mac at home they all work fine! And continue to work fine until the next time I connect to the work PC!
    Any thoughts or fixes gratefully received!

    Is the other machine "authorized" at the iTunes store? If not, it's probably overwriting the authorization of the home machine.

  • IPod Touch accelerometor doesn't work, what can I do?

    When I turn my iPod Touch on Safari or Albums, my screen doesn't turn, what can I do?
    Thanks

    First thing to consider, are you turning holding it vertically or horizontally when you turn? It has to be more or less horizontal for it to work.
    If it still doesn't work, setup an appointment with an Apple Genius to test it some more, and more than likely get a new one.

  • Ipod Touch synchronisation doesn't work

    hey I've got a problem. my Ipod touch doens't work properly. I can't synchronise it anymore, because my laptop doesn't recognise that this is my Ipod. It is always said "USB-gadget not identified". How do I solve this problem?

    Try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem:
    - Reset. Nothing is lost.
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod
    If you still have the problem then you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • The Touchscreen on my iPod touch 2G doesn't work anymore? I turned it on this morning and the touch does not react. Now i have restored it twice and reseted it several times, no toch get recognized by the screen. Any help?

    Hello,
    I have turned on my iPod Touch 2nd Generation and i wanted to slide the unlock and the touchscreen didnt responded. I then did several restarts and also restored the device after reading some forums and help platforms and still it the screen doesnt react to touch at all. It can be conected to iTunes and i can sync, but not use the device. Any additional help to revive this great device? Or is the Genius Bar and another investment my only option?
    Thanks for anyone giving me a hand.

    If you restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod and still have the problem then you likely have an hardware problem and the Genius Bar is a good option.

  • Ipod Touch Apps Won't work now.

    So I re formatted my computer and reinstalled Itunes. I wanted to ad some music to my Ipod so I had to re sync ALL my music since it had no recolation of my apps.
    Now my applications work, they'll boot up and then shut down. It did this before and I had to re download them all.
    I know I can go back and download all the apps one by one but just curious if there is a faster way to get all the apps I paid for back without having to go one by one?
    thank you

    hang on!
    crashing apps is fairly common, two usual solutions:
    1. do a reset (hold home and power button at the same time until the silver apple comes up)
    2. download another app
