Getting APPS on an I Pod Touch

I have an I Pad 2 and have bought all of my Apps directly on this. How can I get these onto my I Pod Touch - can I just go to the Apps store and download them directly to the touch. Or do I have to sync it with my computer.
How do I just copy certain apps from I Tunes to my I Pod touch ?

You sync them to the same computer and same Apple ID that you use for your iPad. Just be aware, while most/all iTouch apps will work on the iPad (just smaller on the screen) there are many iPad apps that are iPad only and will not work on the Touch or iPhone. If an app is universal it has a + by the price/download button. If there's no + then it is likely optimized for only one device/kind of device and will not transfer over. Most if not all HD apps are iPad only and meant for the iPad's larger screen. If you have any iPad only apps you will have to repurchase for your Touch.
I was the other way around, I had my touch first, iPad second and had to repurchase some iPad versions of some of my apps.

    My ipod is really beggining to irritate me,when i finally get apps sent to my ipod touch thay are still saying "waiting...."and now the apps picture on all of them is blank and i still HAVE YET TO DOWNLOAD ONE APP SUCCESSFULLY! What's going on with my ipod & how do i fix it?

    Have you tried a hard reset of your iPod yet?  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    If that doesn't work, are you still connected to a network?  Either way try connecting to a different one and downloading another FREE app to see if that helps.

  • How do i get the text app on my i-pod touch?

    i keep trying to go to my app store but it wont let me log in

    Actually, I thnk my post is right on point.  Here is my logic:
    He's already move up to iCloud according to the OP.  So, the question is, "What function would an icon serve?"  Since the Settings selections only turn specific functions on or off, my assumption is that the OP was looking for management options and user functionality, so as the ability to add a calendar entry directly into the calendar on iCloud.  As we both know, you can only do that using a laptop or desktop.  Many newbies do not understand that the only way to make a calendar entry, for example, from a phone is to use the calendar app.
    If, on the other hand, the OP is looking to set up an account, then you are correct.

  • Getting music back to i pod touch

  • I got free apps on my i pod touch and now its saying that i have to owe $11 and i dont have money what do i do?

    i got free apps on my ipod touch from itunes and now they wont let me download anymore apps unless i pay a balance of $11 and i dont have money so i dont know why they would even charge me when i got free apps on there. what do i do?

    You must have purchased some apps that weren't free. Apple doesn't pull charges out of no where. So unless you plan on paying, you won't get any new apps.

  • A way to get apps for 2nd gen ipod touch?

    Well i posted before on this issue, i got my ipod screen replaced and i restored it, once i got it back i attempted to redownload all my apps from my purchased section of itunes, they all downloaded attempted to transfer to my ipod and only a few like 5 installed. Upon some research majorioty of the apps i bought and had updated to require ios 5 or at least above the max 2g 4.2.1. So now im out games i bought, and im not going to replace a perfectly fine ipod just because a requirement changed. I did not have any backup or previous sync as was using a new install of windows and itunes so nothing was backup. I was never notified on app update and to accept or decline it as they didnt ipdate from my pc files or from my ipod. Its the only way they can be downloaded from itunes and no way to download the old version that is compatible on my touch. I would of went to apple support but the get started button on the support screen is broke and when clicked does nothing, no loading signs just a broken button. This did not work with firefox or google chrome nor does it work with explorer. So beside i've been ripped off on my apps, apparently they dont want me contacting support, def feel like a valued customer

    Trying to get the old versions of the apps, i paid for the apps and they previously worked with my ipod without a warning i no longer have a compatible device that can use these apps as the requirements changed, if i had a backup of the older versions i would have used them.
    If u paid for something and it worked and then all the sudden u could no longer use it because some small change that you had no choice to do or not to do, and then ur money was spent on useless items ud be happy? I cant use facebook, unblock me, angry birds, or over half my apps and some that have no reason to be updated to iOs 5 as there are super simple games/apps.
    Also since the support button does not work I'm trying to get the attention of a moderator or someone who can help me get some where.

  • Getting App off 1st Gen iPod touch to use on iPhone

    I have a 1st gen ipod touch with an app that is no longer available in the app store (the original EA SimCity).  I want to save it to my pc so i can put it on my iphone, but when I backup or sync my ipod touch, it doesn't backup the game. Any way I can get the game off the ipod onto my pc or into itunes?   I want to play the game i paid 5 bucks for, but EA cleverly obsoleted the game and re-released it under the same title with one tweak.

    Transfer iTunes purchases to the computer by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computerIt is an all or no transfer. Then sync the app to the iPhone.
    If you also want the game status restored:
    - How to transfer game saves between iOS devices, without iTunes, and without jailbreaking | TUAW - The Unofficial Apple Weblog
    - Or backup the iPod to iTunes and restore the iPhone from that backup. All the apps have to be in the iTunes library since the backup does not included synced media like apps and music.
