App availability for 2nd gen touch

Can't find any apps in the app store that will work!!!!!

Here are a few ways to find apps which which will work on your older iPhone or iPod Touch under iOS 4.2.1 or earlier.
iOS Search - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Vintapps 3.1.3 - paid app.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.

  • Bought Nike+ for 2nd gen touch, doesnt sense it, help please

    I bought a new Nike+ sensor for my 2nd gen touch and right out of the box it wouldnt work. It told me to walk around to activate the sensor, but i can walk for 10 minutes and nothing, so i decided to ask the people that actually know something about ipods... thanks
    p.s. tried to wake it up, tried settings and calibrations, and checked for software updates

    Did you happen to activate the touch to work with the sensor? You have to turn it on in Settings > Nike + iPod.

  • Unable to install and use apps that i previously bought for 2nd gen touch as they all require iOS 4.3.

    Just found out that majority of the apps that i previously purchased and worked with my 2nd gen ipod touch with iOS 4.2.1, will not work as they are incompatible because the required iOS is 4.3. They worked before and now i have apps that i bought just sitting there being unused because they require an iOS update which 2g touchs have been at 4.2.1 forever. Thanks for taking my money and the apps that i paid for, and now are unusable on my ipod touch, and im def not going to be buying a new one just to use the apps.

    They were installed before my ipod got its screen repaired, i restored it, and when i got it back i re downloaded all the apps from my purchased section, and only a few were able to be installed, i didnt see any app updates for requirements until they didnt work

  • How do I find Apps for 2nd gen Touch?

    Recently I replaced my 2nd generation Touch with one of the same version from the Apple store because the battery died. Now I'm having trouble finding Apps that work on it.  Most won't download and I get a message that says ios outdated.  Any suggestions on how to find Apps that work?

    To more easily find compatible apps:
    iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
    Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
    Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
    App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
    App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

  • HT4623 Will the ios 4.3 software EVER become available for 2nd Generation touch?

    Does Apple plan to ever make the ios 4.3 available for the 2nd generation touch?  Many of my apps are not longer working because they require the update.  For example my Facebook app stopped working and there is no alternative app for it.

    Nope, not a snow ball's chance....

  • Most recent iOS version available for 2nd gen iTouch

    What is the most recent version of iOS that can be put on a 2nd generation iPod Touch?  It seems like everything in the app store needs a much newer version of the iOS, and I'm not sure if I can put it on my iPod.  (And I'm sure not going to go out and buy a whole new iPod just to download a video game). It's at version 4.2 right now, and I just updated it.  Also, if the operating system can be updated any further, does anyone have any clue how to do it?  According to iTunes, 4.2 is the latest version, so it won't let me update any further.

    iOS 4.2.1 is the highest version that is compatible with your 2G iPod Touch. It can't be updated any further.

  • I deleted the applications on my 2nd gen iPod accidentally, now I can't download anything because everything's updated and the newest software isn't available for 2nd gen iPods?! What's the point of buying apple devices then?? They're meant to last long.

    So basically, am I now suppose to throw the device away??
    I was really disappointed in Apple when I found out that 1st and 2nd generation iPods cannot be updated. So my device is pointless now?
    Or is there any kind of solution?

    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.
    Your iPod still plays music, gets and sends mail, surfs the web and does other things. to. It is old by electronics standards.

  • Need to find 4.1 for 2nd gen Touch

    I'm posting this for a friend who is stuck on Tiger and cannot upgrade to iTunes 10, which apparently is required to run IOS 4.2. For whatever reason, she had not upgraded her IOS since version 2.something. Now the only option available to her when she's connected to iTunes is IOS 4.2. Does anyone know where she could obtain IOS 4.1, or has Apple removed all links to it?

    Perhaps you didn't understand. Upgrading the OS on the Mac is not an option. It's a work computer, and the company either cannot (for whatever reason) or will not upgrade the OS.

  • Returning 1st gen ipod touch for 2nd gen?

    Does anyone know if I could return my 1st gen ipod touch for the 2nd gen or even give it to them and get money off the 2nd gen? I want to return my first gen because i have noticed that some of the apps that I want to download require a mic. If you no if i can trade mine in please respond. Thank you

    ... and the second generation Touch doesn't have a mic anyway. Chris will correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe, if you want to use a mic-dependant App on a 2nd gen Touch, then you need to buy a headphone/mic combination to plug in instead of standard headphones. I don't know +at all+ about the 3rd gen.
    Non-mic Apps can run on a 1st gen Touch if you purchase the software upgrade, but whether that also includes mic-Apps, well, once again, I don't know. (Not much I do know really, is there? )
    Perhaps you need to consider how much you need mic dependant Apps before rushing into the major expense of a Touch which may not actually meet your needs. There's always the iPhone of course.

    Ah, there you go, in this post - http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2322224&tstart=30 - sparky67 says the 3rd gen 32G and 64G Touch comes with a microphone/headphone combination.

  • Will iOS5 become available for 2nd generation iPod Touch?

    I thought iMessage would be the perfect solution for texting while I am abroad, only to find that 2nd generation iPod touch isn't compatible?  That's ridiculous.  Anyone know if it will become available??

    same as for iphone3G which is hardwareside comparable to the 2nd gen touch.
    iOS5 needs 256MB of Ram to start with, as well as certain features in the CPU that were not available before the iphone 3GS and the iPod touch 3rd gen.
    So your device is now maxed out . Enjoy it as it is.

  • My iPod touch is a model MB528LL running version 4.2.1.  I would like to download the At Bat 12 App (the $14.99 version) so I can listen to professional baseball games this year.  Will there be an app. available for my iPod?

    My iPod touch is a model MB528LL and runs version 4.2.1.  I would like to download the At Bat 12 app. (the $14.99 version) so I can listen to professional baseball games this year.  Will there be an app. available for my iPod this year?

    I went to the link you posted and followed all the steps.  I was thrilled to see that it worked!  I don't recall whether my PC still recognized my iPod Touch as a camera or not, but DEVICES did show up in iTunes and it recognized the name of my iPod Touch.
    Now, though, everything is back the way it was.  The PC tells me I have a camera connected via USB and iTunes doesn't even have DEVICES listed in the left-hand column.
    I'm wondering if this is the problem:  I had the iPod on until the battery was so "low" that it stopped.  I didn't press and hold the button on top.  In fact, until I read the article you linked to, I didn't even know you could turn the iPod on and off that way.  I would only press it once until the screen turned blank and simply pressed the Home buttom to turn it back on.  Until I read that article, I thought the Home button was the On button.
    So now my question is this:  Should I ALWAYS turn the iPod off by pressing and holding the button on top until I see the red slider on the screen?
    Thanks!

  • Airplay works for phots and video, but not music on 2nd gen touch

    Upgraded to 4.2 on 2nd gen touch. I can send photos and videos/movies to AppleTV via Airplay, but not music. I can select AppleTV when playing a song on Touch and the music stops playing from Touch, but never plays from AppleTV. Audio works just fine for movies sent to AppleTV.
    Anyone else experience this?
    Support told me that this feature is not supported on 2nd gen Touch and I'd have to buy a new Touch. The Apple website says feature is supported. A second call to support and they said it is. ?????

    Im having a similar problem where after a period of time I can get neither my iPhone 4 or iTouch 2G to see the Air Tunes speakers on my Airport Express base station. Always works fine from my computer's iTunes though. What I found works is powering off and rebooting the phone / iTouch (not just locking it). When it reboots go to your music and maybe you'll see the Apple TV or Airport Express icon appear now. Works for me anyways. After a while, they will "forget" and I need to reboot the phone again to find it. I think there are kinks in the 4.2 iOS that need to be sorted out.
