Apps won't go from CPU to touch

This should really be plug and play.......unbeivable how un-user friendly this thing is. I have a 32gig touch that I purchased games for through the itunes store. the apps are on my CPU but will not transfer to the touch! I was told by apple support to update the version for $4.95, so I did, threw that $$ away with no help. I've tried to "deauthorize" and then re"authorize" my CPU, no help. I've tried to drag and drop from "Apps" to "my device" which doesn't work, it gives me a "No" symbol. So now my 7 year old keeps asking when he can play his games...........who knows son? Anyone have the secret decoder ring out there? thanks.

im having the same problem "apps won't go from CPU to touch" and i'm really getting frustrated, spent couple of days now reading forums for solutions & troubleshooting this device.
originally ive use a windows xp to set up the device & i was able to get apps both paid & free with no hassle and now all i want to do is to put new apps on my iTouch using a new pc (windows vista) which i've already authorized/de-authorized/authorized again with my iTunes store acct. though i was able to get new apps from the store on this new pc, for some reason it wont transfer on to my iTouch.
there shouldnt be a problem using a new pc to get new apps right? but i dont know why im getting all this drama. PLEASE HELP!

Automator app won't run from double-click

automator app won't run from double-click in finder or from alert from ical. Will only run if I open in automator editor.
I found a solution on my own. I opened activity monitor and all the automator apps that I run daily were hanging up and the auromator launch was hanging up. I force quit them from the activity monitor. Now it works again.

I might have gotten there eventually on my own, but I suspect finding your post saved me a lot of work. Thanks for posting your solution.

Thanks SerZak! I lost my reply to your post. But I discovered I was logged out after the update. I logged back in and it was sorted. I wouldn't have worked this out on my own, so thank you for you help. Much appreciated.

Apps won't sync from itunes to ipod

Hi everyone, hopefully someone can help me with a frustrating problem!
As it stands I can download apps (via my ipod) and use them with no problems. However, I cannot sync ANY apps currently stored on my computer to my ipod. Ipod + itunes are both up to date, settings are the same as they always have been (working with no problems for the last year), music and video syncs fine.
If I remove an app from my ipod I cannot put it back on....all relevent boxes are ticked but apps won't appear in the ipod screen viewer within itunes.
Any help would be great thanks.

Have you reset your iPod and rebooted your computer?
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

App won't unzip file even though touch shows enough space

An easy one, I hope. My Reading Ally audiobook app won't unzip a 383mb file even though my touch shows more than 2 gb of space available. The app presents a message saying not enough space available. Any help appreciated.

I can't find any app called "Reading Ally". Do you perhaps mean Learning Ally? If so, are you using the lateset version of the app? Have you tried restarting your iPod (a full restart, from the "swipe to turn off"). Note that according to the company, the app does not work with Learning Ally WMAdownloadable (AudioAccess) books. They also say that if you have downloaded books prior to February 28, 2011 you will need to re-downloadthese titles.
If that's not the app you're referring to, please confirm the actual title of the app.
Regards.

Certain music pieces and apps won't download from my iPod to iTunes on my MacBook

I want to put what is on my iPod on my new MacBook, but certain pieces and apps won't download because my computer isn't authorized (so it will delete it from my iPod if I sync), but when it asks me to authorize it it uses an old Apple ID that doesn't exist anymore and to which I do not have access. Any ideas how to fix this? I just want to be able to sync my iPod with this computer without worrying about losing anything.

Check out this article:
iOS: How to transfer or sync content to your computer
Read the "iTunes and App Store Content" section, especially the "Transferring purchased content" link there.

Why the app tab does desappear from my Ipod touch 4?

Can someone tell me why is desappear the app tab from my Ipod touch 4? How can I do to see it again? I need it to download app on my Ipod. Thanks

You cannot delete the apps store icon.
It is either on another page, in a folder or you have restrictions set. Have a look.
If none of these is the case then reset your home screen layout.
All of this is covered in the manual:
iPod touch User Guide (For iOS 4.3 Software)

Ipad was erased. Now apps won't reload from backup, but show in the app window. They do't sync even when drag and drop is used.

The iPad was lost but returned. In the interim, I sent an "erase" command to the iPad. When I got it back , all info was erased when turned on. I used my backup and restored it, but the applications will not install. I have tried clicking "install". I subsequently tried the drag and drop method. Each time I "apply" the changes, It will sync, but nothing happens as far as applications being installed.
thanks.

Having the same issue. I got the iPad air and loaded apps from my phone but netflix didn't show up and won't open from the App Store

Camera App Won't Launch from Lock Screen after update

After updating to ios 8 and then 8.1 my camera app will not launch from the lockscreen. When I swipe up on the camera app I see my home screen wallpaper until I press the home button or the lock button.

Hey morpeo,
Thanks for the question. Let’s see if we can isolate the issue further. To do so, try restarting/resetting your device:
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
If the issue persists after a restart, let’s see if we can isolate to software or hardware by backing up and restoring your device as new:
iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
After erasing and setting up as a new device, your device is now in a factory configuration. Test to determine if erasing and setting up as a new device resolved the issue. Content on the device may have caused unexpected behavior.
If the issue is still present, you may want to contact Apple Support.
Thanks,
Matt M.

Syncing prob:icons for apps won't sync from Mac to ipod touch G1

I have a 1st Generation iPod touch, 32 GB and the latest version of iTunes on my MacBook Pro. I have tried several times to sync my laptop to my iPod...all goes well except it won't sync the icon pictures of my apps to my ipod...except 2 or 3. Please tell me what setting is wrong or what I can do to get the icon pictures on my iPod. Buying an updated iPod Touch may solve the problem, but that is not an option at the moment. This one is so old it doesn't have a cam or anything... but it still works very well.

You say you have a 1G iPod. Those can only gas as high as iOS 3.1.3 that you get here:
Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)
However, not there are few apps still compatible with the 3.1.3. Many have been udated so theay are no lnoger compatible with th 3.1.3.
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.

Certain apps won't transfer from itunes to ipod

I have the latest updates for itunes and ipod touch.
Today I noticed several of my apps are no longer visible on my ipod. I say "visible" because when I try to re-download them from the app store, the ipod thinks I already have them and therefore the app store does not give me a download button.
I transferred my apps from the ipod to itunes, and low and behold, the missing apps transferred to itunes. They will not sync back to the ipod, unfortunately. I can delete the app from itunes, but after syncing, the ipod still thinks it exists and I'm unable to download it again.
This issue only affects a few apps, specifically netflix, goodreads, and redbox, to name a few.
Any ideas about how to solve this would be greatly appreciated.
Any

- Have you uses the SpotLight search on the iPod to look for the apps? Maybe they are there but you can't find them (e.g., hidden in an app folder or, if you have all eleven app screen filled they are not visible).
- Could you have restrictions set on the iPod that is "hiding" them and preventing their use? Setting>General>Restrictions.

Apps won't sync to new iPod touch 4rth Gen?

I have an iPod touch 3rd gen, and just got the fourth gen. Why won't it sync my old apps? It acts like its going to and then stops. My music sync'ed fine..

Previously I read of someone who could not fill the last 70 mb of their ipod, and were worried about that.
The replies to that seemed eminently sensible in suggesting that the ipod needs certain amounts of free space in order to allow things like web pages and emails to be downloaded should a person use those functions. Because of this it was unlikely to accept applications and tunes to fill up the full amount of reported memory. Also the people who posted (who seemed to know what they were talking about), seemed to think that a bit of free space was a good thing
I would suggest that you might need to delete more, and release more free space before this app will sync, and perhaps might be better to free up a decent chunk to let the ipod function as well as it can

Apps won't sync from computer to iPhone

Hi there,
Earlier this week, I followed the instructions in this thread:
Syncing to a "New" Computer or replacing a "crashed" Hard Drive
...to change my sync computer from my iMac to my Macbook. It seemed to work okay. I can connect my iPhone 6 to iTunes, it syncs photos and contacts and I transferred my iPhone apps to my Macbook via the instructions in the thread above. Today I downloaded app updates on my Macbook and downloaded a new app. I then connected my iPhone to it, and it began the sync process (backup, sync contacts etc.) but it didn't go to the next step which is to transfer the latest app updates and the new app to my phone. It just finishes, nothing else.
Any ideas as to why this may be occurring and how I can resolve this? My iTunes is authorised to use purchases on the same account that my iPhone is using.
Thanks.

My wife's iPhone had the same issue, and I found the ultimate solution for it. But first, let me describe the problem in detail.
My wife used to buy apps on her iPhone, but recently she bought a couple of apps on iTunes. So to sync them to iPhone back, she connected the iPhone to her Mac. But "Applications" tab of her iPhone appeared in iTunes didn't show the apps she bought on her iPhone, but showed only the apps she recently bought on iTunes. When she tried to sync anyway by checking "Sync Applications" checkbox in iTunes, she got the following popup message:
"Are you sure you want to sync applications? All existing applications and their data on the iPhone <my wife's iPhone name> will be replaced with applications from this iTunes library."
I am not sure exactly when this happens, because I have never experienced such a problem with my iPhone and Mac. But I can say for sure that it sometimes happens as in my wife's case.
I saw a bunch of postings in this Apple Discussions saying that the only solution is to sync iPhone and iTunes, have the apps on iPhone replaced with apps on iTunes, and then finally re-download apps that were previously bought on iPhone. But there is much easier way.
My solution is this: from iTunes menu, select "File > Transfer Purchases from <your iPhone name>" while iPhone is connected. Then the apps purchased on iPhone are transferred to iTunes, and now you have all apps (bought on either iPhone or iTunes) listed in iTunes!

Apps won't sync from iTouch to computer. iTunes recognizes the iTouch and the app content, but the content is grayed out on the computer screen and won't allow me to sync. My iTouch is version 4.2.1 with 6.8GB capacity.

I am on vacation and away from my home computer. I installed iTunes on a computer I'm using at my son's house to enable
me to sync my iTouch, since it has become unstable when I am playing games and continually closes and reverts to the home
screen.
My son's computer recognizes my iTouch and my apps appear on the screen but they are all grayed out and will not allow me
to sync. Can anyone help me please?

Your iPod can only be synced with one iTunes library at a time. If you try to add content to it from another computer it will erase the contents of your iPod and replacement it with the contents of the new library.
In regards to the unstableness, have you tried a hard reset to see if that makes a difference? To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
