Does Game Center on iPod Touch 2G sync?
I understand that Game Center on iPod Touch 2G (iOS 4.2) no longer work.. (ie. don't show games, empty friends list, unable to receive friend requests, cannot connect to in-game scores)... but does that mean that it is also not syncing? I ask this because I am looking to get a new iPhone, which will have iOS 5/6 and hence Game Center. I'm concerned about transferring my games and scores safely onto my new device.
Has anyone experienced this transfer with iPod Touch 2G and had any luck? If so, please share the good/bad experiences, or any suggestions, thanks
On a mobile device everything is about optimization, and I think this is especially true for an old gen device like iPhone2G. If you've checked out the game Space-On-Air on App Store, you would find out box2d-based flash game can run smoothly even on older gen of iOS.
Though I haven't done any experiment with box2D just yet. I think the reason that might slows down your app could be anything:
Were you using vector graphics?
If yes, did you cached them as bitmaps?
If they are being rotated or scaled, did you set cacheBitmapAsMatrix?
Have you tested on the lastest iPhone/Touch, cuz the CPU/GPU for 2G are not great, but they are good, that means you could have a much better performance or at least 10FPS on 2G once you take care of optimization.
Another thing that I'm concerned is box2D is said to be CPU-intensive running in Flash. So I strongly suggest you refine your code, avoid high iterations, set frame rate below 30FPS, choose GPU rendering...
Good luck!

How do u play games with somebody else on game center for ipod touch?
i have an ipod touch and my sister has one too we want to play games together on game center but im confused on how to set it up....please help??

Cannot access iTunes or game center on ipod touch
I bought kids iPod touches for Christmas but I can't get them to access iTunes or game center. Wifi is connected, albeit as a guest. When I try to connect I get message "Cannot connect to iTunes Store" and the game center message is "Could not connect to Game Center server." Is there a setting that I'm missing?

Why does my ical on my ipod touch not sync with my ical on my desktop imac ical?
It will if I put it in on my desktop though.
Please help,
BrieProbably because you did not tell the iPod to sync the calendar in iTunes.

I purchased a game on my ipod touch. I restored the device to factory settings last night and when I synced all the apps back, the game is now in the demo version. How do I unlock it ? I hope I don't need to pay for the full version again.
PES 2012 is no longer available in the US App Store and only on the British App Store currently.
http://pes-2012.en.softonic.com/iphone
That (an app no longer available) happens sometimes.
Your only way is if you have the appt on your computer such as in the recycle bin/trash or in a computer file backup. In that case move it to your iTunes library and sync. -
Ipod Touch wont sync but Nano does...any ideas?
My ipod touch is no longer syncing. New one - 64gb. I also have an 8gb nano - latest version and it syncs fine from same itunes. Wondering if it is a hardware conflict. I read about hp driver for scanne rconflict and uninstalled to no avail. Out of ideas. Anyone please?
Latest version of ipod SW and latest version of itunes installed. Windows 7.I assume yu mean that iTunes does not see your iPOd Touch.
Yes, it is likely that the scanner software is casung the problem. However, first try:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
Is the scanner sofware still uninstalled? It should be. Also try removing and reinstall the Apple software by using the Vista/Win7 link provided in:

My daughter tried to play the My Horse game on her Ipod touch that she got for Christmas and when she opened the game it said something about sending "push notifications" and gave the choice of "don't allow" or "ok"...we chose "don't allow". After that the screen went white and now we cannot get the Ipod touch to respond to anything. I tried holding the sleep/wake button to try to restart it and it doesn't seem to work. Any suggestions to get this device working again???
Try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If that doesn't work, try a Restore:
From iTunes, select the iPad and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad.
There's more that you can do. Post back if none of the above solves the problem.
By the way, I always allow "push." That allows the app developer to "push" information to your device rather than waiting for you to ask for it. However, "don't allow" shouldn't cause the problem that you're experiencing. -
Please help i bought a new ipod touch and synced it to my itunes account so i had both ipod touch's on it and now i have an error flashing at me and i don't know what to do??
== Error -54 ==
From an OS9 reference, error -54 is a software lock on a file or a permissions error. (Some of the old codes still apply to OSX although there is no formal list of OSX error codes.)
First, try simply restarting your computer.
iTunes Library cannot be saved (Error -54) - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1912814
Unknown error (-54) while syncing ipod - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/1082953 - problem was locked files
Why does iTunes keep showing a -54 error when I sync my iPad? - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3727114
Error -54 possibly related to Touch Copy - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3727114 - cleared by deleting preferences on iPad. -
Will contacts deleted on iPod Touch truly sync and get deleted in AB?
I have many, probably 100, duplicates of contacts in my Address Book and thus on my iPod Touch, which I would like to delete on the iPod Touch and then sync and have them also delete on my MacBook Pro. Is it possible to do this? Or will the computer try to 'save' or 'keep' these contacts? (I want to delete them from the Touch and sync it to the computer - rather than vice versa - because I am without my MB Pro for a month and would like to handle this now.)
The Touch manual says "contacts are synced both ways between your computer and iPod Touch. New entries or changes made on iPod Touch are synced to your computer."
This is not entirely clear because the computer could decide that these are not "changes" but deletion on the Touch and might just keep them in the OS 10 Address Book application. Another unsuccessful possibility could be that the MB Pro syncs them back onto the iPod Touch which it might consider as doing it's side of the syncing job, which would defeat the purpose of what I'm trying to do.
Any clear definite answers to this so I won't have to do this process of deleting duplicate entries twice should they not delete on the MB Pro?
Thanks.Instead of deleting the duplicates on your touch, delete them on your Mac. After that, use the feature to replace all contact info on the ipod during the next sync in iTunes. You can find this option in the info pane, advanced section with your ipod connected.

Ipod touch wont sync but older 5G will
Hi All, Hope someone can help.
I have a new touch and a 30GB 5G Video Ipod. I also have two computers with Itunes installed, an XP machine and a Vista machine. Both machines have fully powered USB ports and I am connecting directly to the port.
On the XP machine both the Touch and 5G sync fine, so I dont have an issue with hardware, cables etc. On the Vista machine the 5G syncs fine but the touch does not appear as a device in Itunes. It connects and shows up as a device in the Device manager in Vista. When I first got the touch it did sync with the Vista box.
I MAY have told Itunes on the Vista box to not sync with the touch and I MAY have ticked the "don't show me this again" box. I'm really not sure. I have also:
reset the touch
tried various cables
reinstalled itunes (twice)
I would really prefer to have the touch on the Vista machine if possibe. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

IPod Touch Calendar sync with online google calendar?
Does anyone know if there are any plans of making the iPod Touch calendar sync with the online google calendar? I mean; the iPod have the ability to get gmail and it should be really good to have the same functionality with the calendar.
I've read about some 3'rd party software that do this for me, like a calendar gateway. It would be really nice if the iPod could do this by itself. Is it possible?i asked a similar question yesterday for synchin google calendar and contacts via web/wifi without dock.
The response I got was to check out Re: problems synchin gmail contacts & calender to touch via web/wi-fi NuevaSync. It's free and it can sync the Calendars and Contacts.
Have not tried it yet myself but will do when I get 5. Let me know how you go...
Good luck! -
HT1491 How can I purchase a game from my iPod touch using an iTunes card?
Hello does any one know how to buy games or does it need to be from a computer?
Thank you very much!!To redeem your card:
On your iPod touch, open your "iTunes" app. Go to the "Music" home screen and scroll down to the very absolute bottom. you should see 3 options, Redeem, Send Gift, and your account. Select Redeem. From here, you can enter the card code found on the back of your iTunes card (you can do this only once, and your credit will transfer to your itunes ID, for use on any device registered or authorized with your apple ID.
To buy apps and games:
On your iPod Touch, open your "App Store" app. Along the bottom, press the "Search" button, or the magnifying glass. Search for the app you want. Once you find the app you want, tap on the price (or where it says "free") that will turn into an option labled "Buy App" or "Install App" depending on whether or not the app is free. Once you hit this option, it will request your password. enter your apple ID password, and the app will continue to install....
