GarageBand only compatible with iOS 8?

I recently bought an iPhone 4 and updated it to iOS 7.1.2, and when I try to purchase GarageBand on the app store, it tells me "This application requires iOS 8.0 or later. You must update to iOS 8.0 in order to download and use this application." Where can I find the option to download an older version of the app? I know there are people who can still use GarageBand on their iPhone 4, so I must be experiencing some sort of bug.
Otherwise, why would apple discontinue an app on older devices? And moreso, why would they say that they updated it to add "support for iOS 8" if they were requiring everyone to have the newest devices and operating systems to use it? That seems like a very underhanded trick to me, so I hope I am only experiencing an error.

I see, your page is working again, stevejobsfan!
Yes, the work-around with buying in iTunes on a mac should do it.
If it does not work, Fishbowl22 could try to email the iTunes Support using this form: https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
There must have been a mistake, if a minor compatibility update from 2.0.2 to 2.0.3 rendered the app incompatible with iOS 7 and now prevents purchasing. iPhoto users will not want to upgrade to iOS8, because the app has been discontinued.

Nothing. The 2nd Gen Touch is OBSOLETE and is WAY past its support life. If you want to run the newer apps you have to buy a newer iPod.

You may have a chance if you still have the app in your iTunes library.

I accidentally deleted Garageband on my MacBook Pro, version 10.6.8. The new version of Garageband is only compatible with 10.9 and above. Is it possible to still get the older version? OR, can I get another copy of the startup CD for my computer

I accidentally deleted GarageBand on my MacBook Pro, version 10.6.8. The new version of GarageBand is only compatible with 10.9 and above. Is it possible to still get the older version? OR, can I get another copy of the startup CD that came with my computer so that I can reinstall GarageBand?

The new version of GarageBand is only compatible with 10.9 and above.
If your Mac can run MacOS X 10.6.8, it probably can be upgraded to Yosemite, if you don't have to stick to Snowleopard for other reasons.
Is it possible to still get the older version?
Amazon or eBay are still selling iLife '11 installer disks, and you could reinstall GarageBand from these DVDs. But it will be expensive.
Have you checked your backups, if you can restore GarageBand from a backup?
OR, can I get another copy of the startup CD that came with my computer so that I can reinstall GarageBand?
Sometimes the AppleStore Support will replace missing installer CDs for a fee.

My old iPad 2 is updated to ios 7.1.2 but I have a new 4 which is only compatible with 7.0.4 from setup. How can I backup my account to the new iPad with this incompatibility?

My old iPad 2 is updated to ios 7.1.2 but I have a new 4 which is only compatible with 7.0.4 from setup. How can I backup my account to the new iPad with this incompatibility?

What you need to do is temporarily set up your new 4. Just long enough to update the operating system. Then you can erase all content and settings - which puts it back to its out of box state, then set it up again, this time restoring it from the backup of your two.
So, using the same Apple ID on both - just to keep things easy - set up your 4. Just basically choose 'set up as new' to activate it, then immediately update the iOS to 7.1.2.
then erase all content and settings, which puts it back to 'llike new'...but the operating system will not reset, it'll remain 7.1.2
Then set it up again, this time choosing to 'restore from the backup' of your 2 and your 4 will be a near clone of your two.

The latest iTunes wiped out my apps for my 2G iPod Touch by overwriting updates which are no longer compatible with iOS 4.2. I tried to restore to an earlier version with no success. Is there any way to download the older versions of apps which are comp

The latest iTunes software wiped out my apps for my 2G iPod Touch by overwriting newer releases of the apps which are not compatible with iOS 4.2.1. I tried to restore the iPod to an earlier version without success. Is there any way to download older versions of my apps which are compatible with my older iPod?

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.

Need apps compatible with ios 4.2.1

need apps compatible with ios 4.2.1

To more easily find compatible apps:
iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
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.

Is ipad 2 compatible with iOS 8.x.x?

Hi All:
Before i begin updating, i would like to know if anyone can tell me if iPad 2 is compatible with iOS 8? I also am not sure All i know is that it isn't iOS 8. Thanks in advance to everyone who responds..
Thanks very much
Ciaochaio

An iPad 2 only got a few of the new things for iOS7 and even less for iOS8.
While iOS8 is compatible with an iPad2, it does seem to push the limits of that device's hardware specs.
Some have said here that their iPad2 is working better now, others still complain that they have a brick.
My iPad2 us is on iOS7 and that's where it's going to stay. It works fine now, I don't need new apps so I won't run into the 'must have 8 to run' issue
I'm sticking with my 'sure bet' of a device that functions the way I want it to not gambling on the unknown of performance issues with iOS8

Is iPhoto 9.3 Compatible With iOS 6?

For various reasons I cannot upgrade a MacBook to Mountain Lion yet, but I would like to start using iOS 6 on an iPad, primarily to get access to Photo Stream Sharing in iCloud, which does not seem to otherwise require a Mac.
So a couple of questions ...
Is iPhoto 9.3.x compatible with iOS 6? In other words, if I don't upgrade to Mountain Lion, and continue using iPhoto 9.3.x under Lion, will Photo Streaming continue to work as usual with iOS 6?
Is Mountain Lion and iPhoto 9.4 only required to create and view Photo Stream Sharing Albums on the Mac, but otherwise Photo Streaming itself is unaffected? I know Moutain Lion and iPhoto 9.4 add other things, but I'm only concerned about Photo Streaming.

Apple designs and develops their own custom chip sets for iPhones and iPads.
iOS does not support generic phone hardware because of this.
Apple would have to do some major rengineering of iOS to support non-Apple devices.
There is no reason to do this, it would not make them any money and supporting non-Apple devices would be a nightmare.

Old JVC Video camera, driver only compatible with windows.

I have an old JVC camera, i would like to transfer the video which is on mini DV cassette via usb to my macbook pro however the device is not recognised and the driver is only compatible with windows.

I have an old JVC camera, i would like to transfer the video which is on mini DV cassette
It would help if you give us the exact model JVC camcorder you have.
That said, nearly all miniDV camcorders (including JVC miniDV cams) transfer video via Firewire (aka iLink or IEEE 1394), not USB. And no drivers are required, at least not on a Mac. If you have a more recent Mac that has a Thunderbolt port (no Firewire port), you can use an Apple Thunderbolt-Firewire adapter to connect your camcorder to your Mac (although you may also need a 4-pin to 9-pin FW cable).
Also, on miniDV camcorders that have both Firewire and USB connections, the USB connection is almost exclusively reserved for transferring still photos from the memory card in the camcorder, not video from the miniDV cassettes.

How do I find apps compatible with iOS 5.1.1, specifically Facebook?

I have the iPad 1 and had to restore it but the Facebook app will not load. Says it is not compatible with iOS 5.1.1.

Check with Facebook and see if they maintain the older version on iTunes. I don't believe they do.
