App Store downloads from iTunes only

Just installed v2.0 on my original iPhone. I've been able to download and install applications for the iPhone as well... but only from within iTunes on my desktop Mac.
When accessing the App Store from my iPhone, it won't accept my password, that is, the same password I use in iTunes to buy music, and the same password to login here to the Apple forum.
Does the App Store require a different password? If so, how do I set one up?
Thanks!

just double check everything, username, caps etc, as its the same account as on your pc/mac

Every time I try to update an app or download from iTunes a message appears 'unknown problem has occurred' please help as to why?

Are you using a proxy or a VPN to connect to the internet? If you are, this is possibly the reason why. I suggest using anothe connection which is not a proxy.

Since upgrading my ipad2 to ios6 I can't update apps or download from iTunes

How come since upgrading my ipad2 To that ios I cannot update my apps or download from iTunes?

I'm sorry if not because I had the same problem on iPad 3
But now I enter the music or video app and download from iTunes

Can't watch HD movie downloaded from iTunes, only color lines come up!

I rented an HD movie from iTunes Store and when I try to watch it only color lines appear. My computer has all requirements to download and watch HD movies.
Why does this happen? Is there any solution?
Thank you!

It's astonishing that this problem still exists. The same occurs with the 1st gen AppleTV.
Upload a movie from an iPhone 4 (in my case) it will appear on me.com in a browser, show up in an iPhoto sync, but not appear on the AppleTV. And, by the posts above it's still going on for the 2nd gen.
MobileMe is a PAID service. Is the team that works on MM asleep most of the working day?
It's so inconsistent. Don't give us the facility to upload from the phone if all the pieces are not in place.
I only have MobileMe for this reason, getting video and pics to the Apple TV quickly for the kids to see immediately. Heaven knows why I continue to pay now that another part doesn't work.
Don't get me started on the piece of junk that is iDisk!!

Airplay won't show video of movie downloaded from itunes, only sound

i just got a new ipad mini. upgraded the OS. downloaded movie from itunes. video won't play on the tv, just the sound plays on the tv.
my other ipad is not having this problem. The IOS of the ipad has not been updated.
The appletv did just do any update this morning (in between me testing my ipad mini) and still didn't fix it.
any ideas? I still have 13 days to return this mini and get a regular one. any advice is appreciated.

Hello mizgeministarz,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
I only have a few suggestions for you, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to at least try. Have you tried accessing these TV shows outside the playlist they reside in? Just access them from the main list of TV Shows if at all possible or if that isn't what you are doing currently.
It might not hurt to also try to restore the iPod and start from scratch allowing fresh copies of the TV Shows to sync over to your iPod. There may have been a syncing issue that corrupted your TV Shows. If that isn't the case, your iPod is having trouble with the video playback.
Hope this helps.

The app I downloaded from itunes is not working. Any suggestions?

The itunes app I downloaded on my pc is not working. Any suggestions?

If you're trying to "run" it on your computer that would be expected. iOS apps only run on iOS devices, namely iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.

How do I find an App I downloaded from iTunes, on My iPhone if it doesn't appear on the iPhone?

I downloaded an app for my iPhone. It does not show up on any of the "screens" on my iPhone. Yet if I go back to the App entry in itunes the "install" or the "Open" is grayed out.
I have tried "Reset" fro the start, on the iPhone. Doesn't help. I also tried a reset of "Home Screen" fwiw.
iPhone Settings/About/Version: 6.13 (10B329)
thanks

Thanks for the ideas ... the app appears ready for install then never is seen. I can "remove" it by an external app I bought called iExplorer. Still, the "app" itself never is seen on the screen(s) :http://www.macroplant.com/iexplorer/
...then I discovered this thread :
https://discussions.apple.com/message/22445265?ac_cid=op123456#22445265
and it turns out in settings/general/restrictions, after some unknown update, I had "Age" restrictions set.
Maybe the particular app I downloaded did not post one(?) Nevertheless, when I removed age restrictions, Voilla! My unseen app was on Screen one; works well ..

Why are the apps I download from itunes .ipa files?

I understand that .ipa files are for jailbroken idevices, but when i download apps (all free so far), and i go to (eindows explorer) my music\itunes\itunes media\mobile apps, all the files are .ipa files.
Not me or anyone else in my family have had anything to do with jailbreaking or cydia. Is it the fact that they're all free apps?
thx

That's not correct. All Apps are .ipa files.
An App for a jailbroken device may well be in .ipa format, but that's not relevant to you if you haven't jailbroken your device.
Someone writes an App for Apple iDevices. By definition, it's an .ipa file.
The App is submitted to Apple who effectively vet it for behaviour unacceptable to Apple.
If the App passes Apple's vetting, it gets into the Store and you can purchase it, either for a cost or for free
If the App is not passed by Apple - or not even submitted to Apple because the author knows it will not be accepted, it isn't in the Store.
Jailbreaking allows people to install Apps that Apple have not accepted into the Store. It doesn't seem to dawn on many people that the reason Apple may not have accepted an App may be because it will harm the iPod, make the iPod unreliable or compromise their security.
You have no need to worry. My additional comments about jailbreaking are to serve as a warning to anyone else who reads your thread in order to deter them from jailbreaking. Further reading can be found here;

ITunes 10.7 Update returns error (-1003) & remains in App Store despite updating iTunes directly from iTunes webpage several times & currently running latest version 11.0.5 (5)

I have experienced this problem since purchasing a brand new MacBook in October 2012, basically the App Store permanently displays "1 Update Available" for iTunes 10.7 but clicking the "Update" button only results in the following error "A server with the specified hostname could not be found.(-1003)" so I have always had to go around the App Store & download & install iTunes updates directly from the iTunes webpage. I am currently running the latest version of iTunes 11.0.5 (5) & what I believe is the latest version of OS X 10.8.4 (12E55) & I simply wish to stop the App Store displaying this update that doesn't work anyway & relates to a year old version of iTunes!!!
Note: It may or may not be of importance but the same problem was also happening for iPhoto & iMovie but I was able to locate fixes for these issues which entailed changing a filename in both applications' "Contents" folders from "_MASReceipt" to "_MASReceipt_FAULTY" (although I believe I could have renamed it anything!) I obviously tried a similar thing for iTunes & App Store separately but unlike iMovie & iPhoto which were fixed immediately the recommended changes were made, these modifications did not resolve the issue which persists to this day & isn't critical but is just annoying!!!

Search for "iTunes" in Spotlight and make sure you don't have an outdated copy lying around, perhaps on a backup volume.

TS1368 Why can I only download from the apps store and not itunes

Why can I only download from apps store and not iTunes.

Try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if it then works.

Getting "Unknown Error" whenever I try to Download from iTunes or App Store

I first noticed something strange when my phone started randomly asking me to input my Apple ID password. Then my password stopped working on my Apple TV. It prompted me to reset my password, so I did. Now the new password is working on everything (Apple.com, Apple TV) but I am still getting this cryptic message when I try to download music or apps to my iPhone 4S.

Issue resolved. I received feedback from my MacRumors forum. I recently activated my cookies filter on my Cisco router - which I forgotten about. Deactivating the cookies filter solved the iTunes/App Store download problem.

I am unable to download from the App Store or the iTunes Store. When I get to download button, it just reverts back to the beginning.

I am unable to download from either the App Store or the iTunes Store. When I get to the download button - it reverts back to the beginning. All my settings are good. There is no error message. Does anyone have any ideas? (I also tried shutting down) Thanks, in advance.

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Sign Out of your Account... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

I want to reinstall an app fresh install from iTunes not from my iCloud, I go to manage storage I stop backup and delete app by turning green button off, but when I ask to download it again from iTunes it is only downloading it from my iCloud. help?

Please assist

You don't really delete app that way, that way to stop backup for that app in icloud.
You need to delete it from your home screen and then while it still will look like download from icloud - app will start fresh.
However if app uses any account sign in the stuff that is attached to sign in will come back, so if you do not want to you need to use
fresh account as well.

Problems Installing App Downloaded from iTunes Store; Error Code 0xE800000C.

I am unable to install a new app downloaded from the iTunes Store. I can connect with and download from iTunes with no problems. But when I go to install the new app, the installation first appears to proceed okay, but after several minutes a message shows up saying that the app was not installed, and giving this error code: 0xE800000C. During the installation, the progress bar pauses for quite a while at about one-fourth of the way across, then suddenly goes all the way across, and after that is when the message shows up. I also tried installing another app, an earlier version of the first one, with the same result. I have tried rebooting the phone and disabling my computer antivirus. I have been able to install apps to this phone in the past using this same computer. My iPhone has the latest software and I have the latest version of iTunes.
Any ideas how I can resolve this problem?
Thanks.
Geoff

I actually found the answer to my problem. After posting this question I still proceeded to trying to find the answer through internet searches and noticed that my specific Fault Module Name was Quickset.qts. I uninstalled and then reinstalled it and now I can play the videos just fine.
Thank you for taking the time to read. hope this helps someone in the future.

HT3951 Only part of a song downloads from Itunes?

Downloaded album, as have done previously...only one track didn't download correctly (first 45 seconds only).... Tried the cloud (which, of course, is identical to what I downloaded to my Itunes (i.e. first bit only). What do I do?

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.
