Apps say they need newer version....

Hi,
Real Newbie here ... bought my iphone 3G yesterday and all my app downloads keep saying they can't sync because I need a newer version.. help? please!!!

I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
Identifying iPod models
iPod touch (3rd generation)
iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

  • I can't open a doc in Pages, msg says I need "newer version of Pages" but it's already downloaded and updated. Help plse

    I can't open a doc in Pages, msg says I need "newer version of Pages" but it's already downloaded and updated. Help plse

    You have 2 versions of Pages on your Mac.
    Pages 5.2 is in your Applications folder.
    Pages '09/'08 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
    You are alternately opening the wrong versions.
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs:

  • Have an older 17 MacBook Pro, running OS 10.5.8. Software update says everyting is current. Just bought new iPhone 5S. Mac won't recognize phone, says I need newer version of iTunes. Have no problem with computer recognizing old phone or iPad.

    Have an older 17 MacBook Pro, running OS 10.5.8. Software update says everyting is current. Mac doesn't have iCloud, preferences still shows MobileMe. Just bought new iPhone 5S. Mac won't recognize phone, says I need newer version of iTunes. Have no problem with computer recognizing old phone 3 or 1-1/2 year old iPad. I suspect I need to update OS, but as software update isn't telling me to do so, can I? What version would I need to go to?

    Your MacBook Pro can be updated to run Mac OS X "Snow Leopard". Buy it. That will enable you to run the latest iTunes version.

    ipod touch disabled after too many tries with password.  tried to restore through itunes but says we need latest version of software.  now what?

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

  • Updated pages today but when I try to open a document I created I get a message saying you need new version, but i have the new version! So frustrating - HELP!

    Updated Pages today - created a document. Went back few hours later to send it as email attachment - got a message saying Pages needs to be updated to open. Went to Mac app page and it said it was updated. Document won't open - what do I do???? Keeps saying to upgrade but it is upgraded - ARGH!

    Here is a possible solution.
    You should still have Pages 4.3, the old version, on your computer in Applications>iWork09. If you have the old Pages 4.3 running when you open the file, Pages 4.3 will warn you that you need to update because the new Pages uses a different file format. You can open the file in two ways.
    Quit Pages 4.3, then open the file.
    Right-click the file and choose to open the file in Pages 5.0.
    I hope this helps.

  • ITunes wont sync devices,says I need newer version of Apple Mobile Device Support what does that mean?

    I have the newest version of iTunes and when I sync it with my iPhone 4s with iOS7 or my 4th generation iPod touch is comes up with a pop up that says I need to uninstall the Apple Mobile Device Support and iTunes and get newer versions of both. However, I cant find Apple Mobile Device Support anywhere. Help would be greatly appreciated!! - Thanks

    Thank you both. I suppose I should have prefaced my question with the concern that I've read a number of other posts from people who have had a similar issue and when they tried to follow the directions, they ran into a multitude of other problems. As you might imagine, I'm hoping to avoid the creation of new problems as I try to solve this one. Thanks again.

  • ITunes will not load--says I need new version of Quick Time

    I've used iTunes for a year and downloaded the new software 7.01--it will not run, says I need to install new version of Quick time. I removed all versions of iTunes off my computer and reinstalled iTunes with same result--Need to install new version of Quick Time. I did this and Quick time said--Can't install because a more current version of Quick time is already installed. Catch 22? Is this a do loop of apple frustration or what? Any ideas would be appreciated.
    iTunes used to work great, I'm very disappointed in apple right now.

  • Why do my Numbers documents not open?  Says I need new version, but already updated.

    I updated Numbers, but now when I try to open a Numbers document, it tells me I need a newer version available at the app store.  The app store tells me I am up to date.  What do I do now?

    Be sure you're opening the document with the version of Numbers that is in your main Applications folder.  (The old version is still on your Mac, in a subfolder named iWork '09, and any icon you had on your Dock still points to that old version).

  • Can't reinstall Creative Cloud. Keeps saying I need newer version but when ZI down;load that is the newest version. Any help?

    Creative Cloud disappeared and now wants to download new version which doesn't exist. I tried 9 times. Anyone know how to install a new version. I'ver been using Premiere CC for a year and never ran into a problem like this. Keeps circumventing me back to install latest version which I repeatedly have done.

  • Created a new doc in pages 4.3 yesterday  now message says i need newer version to open my docs

    Created a new Pages doc yesterday with my current version. Now can't open it. Message says I must upgrade to Pages 5.1. If the doc was created in my current version, 4.3, why can't I still open it. Other documnets created some time ago get same message.  Reviews of 5.1 are not even that terrific.

    Are you using Mavericks OSX 10.9.2, your tag says Mac OSX 10.6.2?
    If so are you sure you have not converted your file to Pages 5.1 format using either Mac Pages 5.1 or an iPad version?

  • Took delivery of imac yesterday with pre-installed Pages, Numbers and Keynote. App store says they need updating but won't let me because I've never owned the major version of the software. I have paid like anyone else, so why can't I update?

    Also, and although possibly not related to your problem, I will remind you that the version of Firefox you are using at the moment as been discontinued and is no longer supported. Furthermore, it has known bugs and security problems. I urge you to update to the latest version of Firefox, for maximum stability, performance, security and usability.

    Try removing and then reinstalling the Apple software using these instructions.
