Find iPod Touch App - Problem Setting up MobileMe

Hi,
I'm trying to set up the Find iPod Touch App. Unfortunately, not sure what "generation" this particular one is (is there an easy way to find out?)
I am following the instructions at http://www.apple.com/ipodtouch/find-my-ipodtouch-setup/, and have OS v4.2.1 installed.
Following these instructions, I try to set up a MobileMe account, but when entering my apple id and password, receive a message saying:
"Device Not Supported". This iPod Touch is not qualified for free Mobile Me service.
Not sure where to go from here - is there something else I need to upload?
Thanks.

From the 1st step in the above link:
Make sure your iPod touch is running iOS 4.2 or later. If you’re creating a free account for the first time, you need a fourth-generation iPod touch.
It sounds like you don't have a 4G iPod Touch. Use this article to help you determine what generation iPod Touch you have.

3rd gen ipod touch app problem

I recent had to reset and reinstall my IOS and the old apps I had are no longer able to be loaded. I had about 30 apps prior to the crash that worked fine. After I reverted back to factory settings and reinstalled the ios, the apps no longer worked. i have the most up to date ios installed (it's old 4.2). How do IO get these apps back and working? The guy at the apple store told me to buy a new ipod touch (I have one!) but he did not know the answer to my question.

Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

Ipod touch app problems

Hi,
I just down loaded some free apps onto my ipod, but they're not showing up on my homescreen. They are showing up on the apps section of my iTunes, just not on my ipod. What do I do?

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.

I have an ipod touch that was set up on this computer. It is a mac. It hasn't had an update in a while and it needs an update to update apps and download new apps. It will not show up in itunes to get the update, nor will it let me update on the iPod. ???

I have an ipod touch that was set up on this computer. There are other ipods hooked up on this one, but this one won't work. it hasn't had an update in a while, and it won't let me update it because it won't connect to itunes, or show up on the computer. There is no place that says there is a software update on the ipod. I was wondering how to get it updated or at least get it connected to itunes?

"iPod touch App Pack 4A93.ipa" will not sync to iPod after restore

Hi, new here.
I'm using Windows, and have a need to reformat & reinstall every six months or so (I install & uninstall a lot of software; I'm a tester by profession). Now, I do not restore my iPod touch quite as often as I reformat, but when it can't be helped, like this other day when iTunes suddenly won't recognize my iPod touch when I connect it. The first time it happened, I was able to contact Apple Support by phone and they kindly re-posted the January Software Upgrade to my account by default, and I was able to re-download it (I also sent an email, hence I was re-sent the file a second time after that, which I have also re-downloaded since). I realized I might run into the same problem in the future, (and I've been doing a lot of reading around these forums) so I backed up the "iPod touch App Pack 4A93.ipa" file.
Three months later (i.e., today) my iPod wonked out again, but I can't seem to re-sync the file I backed up to my freshly-restored, now-plain-vanilla, without the January Software Upgrade iPod touch. The steps I followed are as below:
(1) Copied the backed up file to "C:\Users\RonMarc\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\Mobile Applications\iPod touch App Pack 4A93.ipa"
(2) Re-launched iTunes and made sure I'm logged in to iTunes with the account I used to purchase the upgrade
(3) Restored the iPod touch (it automatically downloaded 1.1.4 (at the time I purchased the upgrade, it was 1.1.3; I have also tried shift+Restore and browsed to a IPSW file of the 1.1.3 version)
(4) When prompted if I'd like to set up the iPod as a new iPod or if I wanted to restore a previously backed up copy, I opted to restore. I have also tried re-restoring it and doing it the other way, i.e., "set up as a new iPod"
(5) Ejected the iPod, reconnected it and Synced. Still, no January Software Upgrade.
I'd like to know if I missed out on any steps. Or if the "back up the IPA file" method works only under the Mac, as in here. The idea of
Thanks in advance. My apologies for the long post as I'd like to provide as much detail. -Ron Marc

2.0 upgrade won't let me restore ipod touch app pack

I can't add back the iPod touch app pack after upgrading to 2.0. Is the app pack now incompatible with 2.0? When I try to open my backed up ipa file, it says "The application 'iPod touch App Pack 4A93.ipa' could not be added to your iTunes library because it is not a valid application." I also thought that maybe the free apps in the App Store has the same applications as what was in the app pack, but I couldn't find them. It would suck if I have to re-purchase!

Okay, it looks like the apps from the pack are part of the 2.0 update. So it makes sense that I don't need to install the app pack. It just threw me off for a minute since I was expecting to see the apps listed in the Applications section of iTunes.

How to skip updates on iTunes store and iPod touch App store???

Hi all!!!
I would like to know how can I skip an updated APP? The game PacMan has been
updated and people had problems with it (slow) and I just wana skip it but there isn't
any way that I know of to remove that "1" update number and it's the same thing on my
iPod Touch App Store icon still has that red 1 on it and want to remove without resulting
to update the program.
Any help welcomed!!!!
PS: 1st Gen Touch

I was just researching the same! No results yet.
To be honest: this is a patyful thing in the UI of iOS. I can no longer tap "update all" since there are some I don't want to update.
P.S. Even Microsoft Windows 7 lets users to "hide updates" that one doesn't want so the OS updates never annoy again. How come iOS fail?

its doing my head in, Help pweeeessee..

Hi
Try to reset your iPod and then deauthorize and reauthorize your computer, then sync the iPod again.
To reset the iPod touch just hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see an Apple logo appear.
You can deauthorize the computer from the iTunes Store menu.
This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1702 provides more general troubleshooting tips for applications purchased from the App store.

IPod Touch 5g problems switching between Mavericks and Mountain Lion.

My iPod Touch 5G is set up to sync (manually) with my Mountain Lion iMac. If I connect the iPod to my MacBook Air running Mavericks, it works fine. However, if I then connect the iPod to my iMac, iTunes re-syncs all 9,000 songs - taking hours! This can't be right. Is there any way to fix this? I've tried restoring it and copying all my music back to the iPod, but it still happens. I need to connect it to both Macs, without this annoying issue. HELP!

You can only sync music and videos among different iTunes libraries/computer using the manual method of syncing. Otherwise when y switch libraries/computer, the media on the iPod will be replaced with the media in the iTunes library of the second computer.
The manual method of syncing is included here:
