Apps crashing on ipod touch..? (4th gen)
I've had this problem for two weeks. I try to open the apps, it looks as if it's going to open, then crashes and the device returns to homescreen. Fair enough, I've had this problem before. All of those times, however, I simply turned the iPod off and back on, or did a hard reset. And the apps worked again. This time, I tried absolutely every idea I could find before finally resorting to a full restore of the iPod. I backed the device up on iTunes, but when I connected this newly restored device to iTunes to retrieve my data, I was told my backup was "corrupt". So basically, all my photos, notes, app data, everything is gone. Granted, that may be my problem, and it's too late now to change that, I continued and installed ONE application. ONE. And can you guess what happens when I try to open this application? (It was twitter, in case you were wondering) So I tapped the app, and what do you know? It crashes. Again. So I do a hard reset twice, turn the iPod off and back on multiple times but twitter still won't open. So basically I deleted everything for no reason. Everything is gone, and my iPod isn't even fixed. It's only four months old, so I really don't understand the problem... Can someone help me, please?
[It's not a virus, and I tried deleting and re-installing the app on iTunes]
Try restoring to factory settings/new iPod and then redownloading (not sync from your iTunes library) only the one problem app.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I can't find my App Store? Ipod Touch 4th Gen.
I had in the beginning,but then dad had a look at it and he couldn't find it! it was GONE!!!
We looked EVERYWHERE but couldn't find it!!
Plz tell me the answer!!!!Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
If you're on Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later, the App Store should still be visible when you click on the Apple in the menubar, following About This Mac and Software Update, even if you removed the App Store icon from the Dock at the bottom. -
What is the best YouTube App for my iPod Touch 4th gen after iOS 6 comes out?
iOS 6 states that it will remove the default YouTube app due to the end of a licensing agreement. So I'm wondering what YouTube app is the best? (features-wise, rating-wise,etc)
Have you tried the Google YouTube app?

I Moved From New York To Florida, But Kept The Same WiFi/Router, But The Maps App and My iPod Touch(4th Gen. & iOS 6) Is Still Registering My Location In New York.
For location the iPod uses the location of nearby routers that are in Apple's database of routers and their location. Thus it appears that Apple's database is incorrect. You do not have to be connected to the router, just within range.
Apple periodically updates their database based on information they obtain from iPhones, The iPhone has to have turned on the option to send info to Apple. no one has found another way to get the location of a router added/corrected.
You can confirm that by going to well-know place with wifi like Starbucks or McDonalds -
My ipod was working just fine for the past 2 years and ever since upgrading to ios 6.1.3, i simply cannot play games or anymore such as Subway surfers, carrot fantasy, 4 pics 1 word, etc. I also noticed that i had 1.2 GB of free space on ios 5.1.1 but then decreased to 900+ MB after "upgrading" to ios 6.1.3. I then deleted one of my space-hungry apps (the sims freeplay) to clear up some space and now have 1.6 GB of free memory. Just a thought, could apple have purposely done this with their software update to actually make an older, phased-out product such as my ipod touch 4th gen work worse than it has in its previous versions of softwares to force you to scrap it for a newer product?
- Double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod.
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.

i recently purchased an in app purchase which is showing up on my itunes account as a purchased but has not shown up on my ipod touch 4th gen. (think it was due to losing my wifi connection during download).
i went into problem solving on the itunes store to rectify the issue to discover that i needed to go via my app store on my ipod to purchase history, which on the ipod touch 4th gen is supposidly at the bottom of downloads... after trying this i discovered that i have no option to go into purchases as this does not exist on my downloads options nor does it exist anywhere on my ipod version of the app store?? can someone please help?? im miffed. :sThanks King_Penguin for taking time to read and reply.
I just purchased this movie on Thursday, May 15, so just a few days ago. I have never had any trouble whatsoever since I have been in Vietnam. I have downloaded several movies and even music and they have all synced to my respected Apple products except for this purchase.
Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by studios and different versions. Could you please explain?
I checked my purchased list in my purchase history under my account and there are no hidden items. -
My iPod touch 4th gen. Keeps giving me the error message "cannot connect to the app store when I sign in. I can open the app store and browse it but I can't download anything. I have full signal strength with my wi-fi and safari is working perfect. I turned it off and restarted it 3 times now. I have an iPad 2 and the app store works flawlessly with it. What is going on?
Same here on my lpad2. Can access the web just fine from browsers but cannot install new apps or updates in appl store. Seeing a few others reporting same issue tonight so likely an apple server issue and staff will notice it in network monitors and fix it...sometime this weekend.

IPod Touch 4th gen unable to install apps
Not sure where to start really. OK basically my iPod touch 4th gen is unable to download apps from the app store or any content from the iTunes app, the only way I can get new content on to my device is to sync it with iTunes on my mac (which isn't convenient for me)
after about 3 weeks of running my iPod without any problems, it starts out of nowhere and it doesn't matter what firmware I am running (it has happened on 4.1 and 4.2.1) the only way to fix it is a full DFU restore even more annoying than not being able to install apps without my mac.
Here is the message I get: http://i.min.us/ijfOIK.PNG
Anyone know what is up with my iPod? I have an old Touch 2G as well and its never done this to me.
Note: i am not jailbroken, but i have a few friends and family members that are jailbroken and have never had this problem.
if anyone knows anything i would appreciate it as i am now on my 13th DFU restore thanks to this problem

I have 300 apps organized in folders on my ipod touch 4th gen, and connected my iphone 4, these apps have copied over but none have been placed in folders, any ideas how to replicate folders from ipod to iphone...?
What may work is to restore the iPhone fom the backup of the iPod. However, if the two devices ahve different apps that come with the device, that may mess up some of the folders.

Unable to sync certain apps on ipod touch (4th gen)
Hi, I have recently been having problems syncing my ipod touch (4th gen) after upgrading to the latest itunes and iOS. Music seems to go on fine, however certain apps will not install. Some will go on eventually if I keep on trying, however modern combat 3 which I recently bought, will not install at all. I've tried several fixes now, turning off genius, my antivirus and firewall, even restoring my ipod. I also have Windows 8 if that makes a difference. I hoped iTunes 11 would fix the problems but unfortunetely it hasn't. I used to get error messages saying that an internal error has occurred, however on iTunes 11 nothing comes up, and the sync keeps looping without completing, unless i untick the box to not install modern combat. Is there anything I might have missed?
ThanksTry deleting the app and redownloainf it and then try syncing.

I have a refurbished ipod touch 4th Gen. I am having problems backing up because the cloud is almost full. I have tried to delete some apps/pics but it won't let me. Do I need to purchase more storage? Also, I accidentally erased all stored music. It is still on my personal computer and I need to know how to get it back on my ipod. A family member set it up for me.
You said " I accidentally erased all stored music.".
You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Your iCloud backup does not include non-iTunes purchases like music from CDs
If on your iPod now:
Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device: Apple Support Communities
You can go to Setting>iCloud>Manage Storage and see what is using the store and delete items from iCloud -

My iPod touch 4th gen crashes and restarts every time I try to edit a photo (iOS 5.1.1)
