Apple Unveils All-New iTunes U App for iPad, iPhone & iPod touch

A colleague just told me about this announcement from Apple -
Apple Unveils All-New iTunes U App for iPad, iPhone & iPod touch -
http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2012/01/19Apple-Unveils-All-New-iTunes-U-App-for -iPad-iPhone-iPod-touch.html
Do any fellow iTunes U administrators know anything about this? How is existing content presented in the new app? Would we need to change anything? How do we access / make available the new features?
The new features sound fantastic but it would have been nice to have some warning. I appreciate that Apple has to keep specific details about developments confidential but it's slightly disconcerting that iTunes U administrators were not forewarned about this new development and that there has been no mention of it on this forum. Also - and at the risk of sounding like a broken record - it really would be helpful for iTunes U administrators to have a private forum (perhaps an add-on to Public Site Manager) where we could discuss issues and share ideas and best practice etc.

Greetings Tom;
I watched the Apple's Keynote presentation and I'm amazed!  I'm really excited about the possibilities this opens up for educators.  I, like you am still processing all of the information and sorting out the possibilities.
Did you get the email about the Webcast on Wednesday the 25th at 10:00 AM PT that's going to cover the new iTunes U Corse Manager and how to publish through iTunes U Site Manager?  Hopefully this is available to you in the UK.  We'll keep in touch.  All the best...

    The latest iTunes software wiped out my apps for my 2G iPod Touch by overwriting newer releases of the apps which are not compatible with iOS 4.2.1.  I tried to restore the iPod to an earlier version without success.  Is there any way to download older versions of my apps which are compatible with my older iPod?

    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 been asked to review a new app for Ipad/iphone . The developers site is asking me to download a plug- in to view, is this safe

    What does http://developer.apple.com/ have to do with reviewing an app? Why aren't you downloading from the App Store?
    I've never had any login there result in a request for any app....
    The Dev Center is as safe as your logon...

  • If we upgrade to a Professional Edition DPS license can we create an unlimited number of Single edition apps for iPad, iPhone and Android devices?

    I work for a organisation based in Sydney and we have a team license for creative cloud (single edition).
    We have been producing single folio apps for the iPad and want to continue this through 2015. 
    At the moment we can only create apps for the iPad platform.  If we upgrade to a Professional Edition DPS license can we create an unlimited number of Single edition apps for iPad, iPhone and Android devices?
    We do not need multi-folio apps as we are not a publishing company.  

    Thanks Neil
    I sent an email yesterday and am awaiting a reply.  Here is my email for reference.

    I work for a large organisation based in Sydney and we have a team license for creative cloud (single edition).
    We have been producing single folio apps for the iPad through Indesign and the App builder.  We now want to produce apps for iPhone, iPad and Android devices.  
    If we upgrade to a Professional Edition DPS license can we create an unlimited number of apps for iPad, iPhone and Android devices?
    We are not a publishing company so we will produce a small number of the apps.  If you could get back to me with a solution and approx price that would be great.
    Thanks for your time

  • HT201301 How do I copy FOLDERS to or from my iPad/iPhone/iPod touch using iTunes File Sharing?

    How do I copy FOLDERS to or from my iPad/iPhone/iPod touch using iTunes File Sharing?
    I know how to copy files to or from using iTunes file sharing but it doesnt seem to allow copying of folders

    From your PC or Mac, you can copy a folder (and it's contents) into the DropBox folder. It will then sync ans will be available in your DropBox app on the iPad.
    GoodReader includes built in connectivity to DropBox, will pick up the contents and then allow you to easily copy files to other folders within it, as well as open files in other apps on your iPad.

  • No question, just a remark to say how upset I am that Apple still does not have flash player on iPad or iPod touch. Still upset not to be able to view my family's video on my iPad! Upset customer!

    This is a user to user forum, and Apple does not follow these discussions. But here is what Apple says about not having Flashplayer on iDevices:

  • Twitter App. for 1st Gen. iPod Touch

    I recently was having problems with the Twitter App. on my 1st Gen. iPod Touch and so decided to delete the app and re-download it again, like I had done a week earlier. During the download an error message popped up stating that I need ios 6 or later to download the app. Apple had updated the Twitter App on March 10th and I tried re-downloading March 14th, however a week earlier I was offered the opportunity to download an earlier version of Twitter. I am currently only able to use Twitter via Safari. Does anyone out there have a solution to get the official Twitter App. (And no "Buy a newer iPod stuff"!)
    Cheers
    ps IF ANYONE FROM APPLE MANAGES TO SEE THIS CAN YOU PLEASE OFFER THE OPPRTUNITY TO DOWNLOAD LATER VERSIONS OF APPS FOR 1ST GEN IPOD TOUCH

    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: Install the latest compatible version of an app
    Apple did not say why did not allow this option for iOS 3.1.3/1G iPod.
    Apple does not monitor these forums. To make a suggestion to Apple:

  • Where can I find the amount of gb's a tv show has on the new iTunes via iOS6 for the iPhone 4S?

    The question above says it all. I tried to purchase a season pass for a tv show, but, I can't because I don't have enough space on my phone. I have a 16gb iPhone 4S (I already know how to make more space on my phone). I have 10.9gb's available. But, anyway where can I find out the information on how much gb's a tv show has on the new iTunes for iOS6 via the iPhone 4S? Any help would be greatly appreciated! =)

    "(also, my profile says that I'm running OS X 10.4.6, but I'm not really sure, that's just what one of the disks has written on it that came with my used and very cheap machine "
    Click on the blue Apple icon at the top left of your screen and choose About this Mac. That will tell you what your OS version is and what amount of RAM you have. The "More Info" button in the pop-up screen will give you the Apple System Profiler application and that will give you whole bunches of information on the drive space used etc.

  • ITunes Store app for iPad is blank

    The problem is only on the ipad and not the ipod.  The iTunes Store app has a blank grey or black screen depending upon the selection (music, movies, tv shows, etc) 

    Yes I think you have the solution MelissaA1974.
    Here are the steps that I took (thanks to the technical support folks at the Genius Bar at the Rideau Apple store):  Key was re-setting settings(the rest was to force the recognition of the change - the first time reset settings was tried it did not work) so your suggestions on Safari may be right on for future problems of this nature. 
    1. Under Settings / General / Reset select Reset All Settings
    2. Under iTunes & App Store sign out of your ID
    3. Under Wi-Fi disconnect
    4. Reconnect W-Fi
    5. Sign back in to iTunes
    My current Safari privacy and secuirty setting is to block cookies from third parties and advertisers.  I had previously selected Always.  It had not been the problem in the past but with updates, etc.  just might have been the prroblme.

  • ANY radio app for 1st gen iPod touch?? Even with Wifi!?

    Firstly, I know the 1st gen ipod touch does not have a radio receiver..this is not my problem.
    I've been looking for an app that I can listen to the radio on..even through wifi...but am not finding any that will work with the 1st gen. For example, I download TuneIn radio which I have on my itunes, blackberry, and tablet...but it is only compatible with newer generations of the ipod touch. I am on version 3.1.3 which I believe is the most up-to-date.
    In short, I'm absolutely fine to use wifi to listen to the radio, but simply can't find an app (ideally a free one) that will even let me sync the app from my itunes to the ipod.
    Suggestions would be very welcome!

    Try my web app. I have over 100 stations of all genres. Just enter the following URL in Safari and tap on the orange music icon on top right. Also, you can add a Home screen app icon for easy future access.

    Ok, new day new problems.
    It looks like it's something serious. The system is completely unusable atm. Whenever it runs everything seems to work fine, but it can simply hang at any moment regardless of what I'm doing. It usually doesn't stay up for more then 5 minutes.
    I've tried a few more things in the mean time. Installing the combo update didn't solve it. I've completely removed everything related to iTunes using the Apple instructions, but it didn't help any.
    I've basically ruled out it being usb related as I previously suspected, because i'm running the system now with just my bluetooth mouse, no usb device of any kind attached, including a keyboard, and it still hangs just as frequently.
    I also created a new user and tried the system under that account, but the results are the same.
    I've noticed a new symptom now, and it's quite worrysome. Whenever the system goes into it's unresponsive state, I hear the harddrive spin down. Then after a while it will sometimes spin up again, but it will only be for a short time and it will sometimes allow an application to very shortly make a bit of progress, but then the HD spins down again. At some point it simply won't spin up anymore, forcing a reboot. Sometimes, this behaviour can keep going for quite a while, with the HD constantly spinning up and down and applications constantly being unresponsive because of it. This however, is not something that seemed to be occuring yesterday, at least not in such an extreme way.
    I understand the unresponsive state a bit better now too. Basically, applications function, but whenever you ask it to do anything, it will completely stall because it seems to need to access the HD. This allows some animations to continue, for example the dock, but whenever I try to start an application, it will stall.
    I think I'm going to try a archive-and-install and upgrade to 10.5.4, just to see if it helps, but at this point I suspect a more serious problem.

  • App for 1st gen iPod Touch

    Is there an ereader that will work with a 1st gen ipod touch running ios 3.1.3?  If yes, where can I find & how do I download onto the ipod?

    See:
    iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.

  • Is there a system check app for 2nd generation iPod touch

    I have an 8 GB iPod touch which I guess is just gneration 2 and not 3.  Is there a system check app that will work on this iPod?  Also how do apps shut down on this Ipod.  On my newer 4th gen iPod you have to make them wiggle and then click the red "X".

    You have a 2G iPod. Apple only made 32 and 64 GB 3G iPods.
    I know on no system check app
    As you found out, the 2G/iOS 4.2.1 and earlier do not support  multitasking and then do not have the recently used app show up when you double click the Home button.
    To shut down a n app just click the Home button to get to your Home screen
