  • Downloading apps for ipod touch

    i have downloaded some apps for the ipod touch using itunes on my PC but i cant get them on my ipod touch do anyone know how to do this?

    ive just updated my ipod touch with software 2.0 version.
    managed to downloaded few free applications/games as a trial, before purchasing other paid apps/games.
    BUT every time i touch the apps/games icons on my ipod touch, POOF, the apps/games seems to be unplayable, and goes back to the main menu.
    can someone explain to me why did this happened? is there anything i missed out while updating to the 2.0 version and/or while downloading the apps/games?
    PLS HELP, anyone?

  • Cant download apps for ipod touch

    I cant download apps to my ipod touch." Authorization failed. Please connect to itunes " always pop out. Pls help.

    it's up to the app creators whether they are going to continue to create updates that are backwards compatible - if they choose to make newer updates so they will only work with current software then you are pretty much stuck.
    btw. a few questions on here are different. if your questions aren't EXACTLY the same as an original post, it's better that you start a new thread, it's much easier for us to reply and easier for people to find their responses.

    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Go to Settings>Stoe and sign out and then sign back in
    - Power off and then back on the router.
    - Reset networks settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    Could just be an Apple problem. So far I have seen another post today with same problem.

  • I'm trying to download apps for my ipod touch.

    as it says above, i have been trying to download apps for my new ipod touch but all that keeps happening is it saying the following
    update required this app requires iOS4.3. or higher like iOS 5
    anyone help or should i go back to the shop and exchange it.
    it has the updated software but its not doing anything else.
    anyone help will be rewarded with karma.
    thanks

    It looks like you have a 1G iPod Touch running iOS 3.1.3, which is the latest version of iOS that is compatible with that model.  If if it's actually a 2G iPod Touch, you should be able to update it to iOS 4.2.1 at most.
    Either way though, if the App requires a high version of iOS than what is possible on your iPod Touch, then I'm afraid you are out of luck.

  • I 'm a novice..if i downloaded a free siriusxm radio app for ipod touch,are there any charges i.e. data etc.?

    i'm a novice..if i downloaded a free siriusxm radio app for ipod touch,are there any charges i.e. data etc.? or is it free

    You have to have the special SiriusXM account for listening and you must have a regular SiriusXM subscription. Cost is around $15.00 per month. The Live365 app only requires a $7.95 per month subscription and provides much more than SiriusXM.

    Download the apps on your syncing computer and then sync to the iPod. Note that you can only sync apps for the one syncing computer you use with the iPod. You can manage music and videos among different computer.

  • HT4972 I am unable to download apps because my iOs is not up to date. No update shows up in my General settings, how do I update my iPad?

    I am unable to download apps because my iOs is not up to date. No update shows up in my General settings, how do I update my iPad?

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
    Tip 2 - If you are updating using wifi, locate your iPad close to your router so you don't get a wifi dropout (can cause update corruption).

    if so how can i get them?
    if not has anyone heard if Apple is possibly going to make this?

    Hi Luke,
    Currently there's no program you can download and sync it to your iPod. However, there are some web apps you can use. This means the application will be loaded in safari. Here's some:
