After having to do a restore my apps wouldn't install back to my iPod touch. They all worked before and now they wouldn't. WHY?
I did a restore to my iPod touch, after doing this when I did the restore the apps would not sync to my iPod. They all worked before the restore. Now it says I have to have iOS5 and I can't get that for my iPod touch. Why did they work before and how can I fix this problem?
Many developers when they updated their apps to support iOS 5 and 6 dropped compatibility for iOS 4.2.1 and earlier.
Your only way is if you have the version that was compatible on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case delete the current version that is in your iTunes App library and replace it with the older version. Then sync.

I have a visa card and i used it on my apple ID and now the AppStore won't accept my code so now I can't update or download apps. Please help!!!! :(
This has happened to me in the past a couple of times. I can't say i have a definitive answer for you, but i believe it is a problem with the iTunes servers. I would recommend shutting off all devices connected to the account to be sure you are completely disconnected, then turn one on, connect, and try again. That worked for me last time i had the problem. The first time i just gave it a day and it was taken care of.
Good luck. -
when ever my ipod is connected to the computer and download an app it wont install in itunes 11
What happens when you try?
Can you sync music?
Have you synced apps from this computer/iTunes library before? You an only sync app from the one syncing computer you can have.
Are the apps compatible with your model iPod/iOS
Do you have restrictions set that would prevent installation of those apps?

After restore, got apps but not songs back
My daughter accidentally restored her Ipod Touch, losing all her apps and songs. I went through her purchase history and downloaded all the apps that she had paid for but when I tried to get her songs through Itunes I got a message that said the song had already been purchased, did I want to BUY it again. Not download it again, as I got when re-installing the apps, but do I want to BUY it again. If I hit yes, it would then ask me for payment information which obviously I didn't want to give. What's going on here? Why can't I get these songs again even though Itunes obviously has a record that they've already been paid for?
Thanks for you help
MitchIf you use iTunes, you should be able to restore your music library (and software) by simply resynching your Touch. I trust you're done this, since all those songs are automatically stored on iTunes. You shouldn't have to repurchase your songs.
If you don't use free iTunes, or don't back up your documents, I'm afraid this limits your options.
If you need more assistance, I hope you'll post your comments/concerns in this thread. -
If i reset or restore my iPod touch will all my apps be deleted? If so what about the bought ones ?
- A reset does not delete any media (apps, music etc) from the iPod.
- A restore will delete apps, music and other media from the iPod. If the media is in the iTunes library then a restore from backp will restore the media and after a restore to factory defaults/new iPod you can sync the media back to the iPod.
- If not in the iTunes libray, you can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store -
Thanks for responding. Since I upgraded ITUNES to IOS 6, my IPOD Touch no longer works at all. I had numerous apps, music and videos on this touch. It made me restore to factory reset and it still does not work!!! Nothing I do will work on this touch now. I have so much data on this, I don't want to loose or have to restore!
Can you help me?
ThanksIf you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.
