How can I play apps that I've downloaded with iTunes on my Windows laptop?

I have downloaded the itunes for 64 bit windows, as my laptop is running windows8.1. Is there anyway I can play apps from apple itunes store or have I downloaded and installed the itunes software wasting my time for nothing. I downloaded Hay day, clicked on the icon in the itunes app but all it does is higlight it or if I right click it just gives my info as you would expect. Am i doing something wrong or just wasting my time, Thank you in advance

Apps that you download via iTunes are designed for iDevices (iPod, iPhone, iPod). They will not work on any traditional computer.

Many of the tunes have exclamation marks by them and iTunes says they "cannot be found". If I do a search throughout my computer I find the songs. But it is very inconvenient.

How can I use apps that I have purchased from Apps Store for Mac on my iPad2?

how can I use apps that I have purchased from Apps Store for Mac on my iPad2?

Thanks, varjak, it is too easy to fall into use of jargon assuming everyone understands what it means.
One additional point in all of this, not all "iDevice" apps run on every "iDevice". Some are customized for a specific device, or class of devices such as the iPod/iPhone with their smaller screen. Others for just the iPads for their larger screens. So the user needs to be sure they are getting an app that will work on their specific device.
And to Phoneboone, you do need to purchase the app again if it is for a different class of equipment. When you are looking at apps such as iWorks for the Mac and iWorks components for the iPad, the iPad versions are very inexpensive. Pages is only $10 (US) which is really cheap for such a good word processor that reads and saves in the MS Word format.
Anyway, search for what you need and just enjoy the convenience of so many options for apps.

I just purchased an iMac. How can I use apps purchased on my iPhone and iPad on my new laptop?

1) Congratulations on purchaing an iMac. But an iMac is not considered a laptop.
2) Apps you bought for you iPhone and iPad can interchange with each other, but can NOT run on an Imac or a MacBook.
You will have to buy the same title again from the Mac App Store. When you do, you can run them on your iMac and your MacBook.

I can't open apps that friends have downloaded when I connect my iphone to my laptop

I can't open apps that friends have downloaded when I connect my iphone to my laptop? It just goes to a black screen then quits and goes to a home screen. Does anybody know what is going on????

A bit confused. Are you saying your friends are using your itunes on your laptop to buy apps and that you are then syncing them to your iphone?
"..friends have downloaded.." - downloaded from where (or perhaps they downloaded directly from itunes store to your iphone?). Are we talking about a jailbroken iphone?

How can i sync my calendar in Outlook 2007 with iTunes 11.1.3.8 WITHOUT using iCloud?

How can i sync my calendar in Outlook 2007 with iTunes 11.1.3.8 WITHOUT using iCloud?

your link shows how to sync, i know how to do that.
i specifically wanted to sync my outlook calendar with my phone, not my outlook calendar with icloud calendar.
apparently you have to go into setup on phone and tell phone not to sync calendars with icloud so you can get choice to sync phone via itunes.
thanks anyways for trying.
feel free to reference my solution for similar questions.

Only Apple Account Security could help at this point. You can try calling Apple Support in Canada - you'll have to find one of the several ways, such as Skype, to call an 800 number from outside of the relevant country - and ask for Account Security and see if they can help. Or you can find a friend who speaks Chinese and ask them to help you talk to Apple Support in China. There are really no other options that I know of.
Note, by the way, that these are user-to-user support forums. You aren't speaking with Apple when you post here.

How can I merge 2 tracks into one track with iTunes 11? I used to do it with iTunes/Advanced/Join Tracks, but iTunes 11 does not have an "Advanced" button.

How can I merge 2 tracks into one track with iTunes 11?

Thanks for your reply, Jim. I imported a CD that I had burned previously with the 2 tracks of sound effects that I had downloaded from the internet (MP3 files), but I did not see an option to join the tracks when I imported the CD. In the upper right corner there were three buttons: Options, CD Info, and Import CD. When I click on Options, the drop-down menu has two choices: "Get Track Names" and "Submit CD Track Names". I cannot find an option to Join Tracks. Help!

How do I fix Apps that failed to download, just says "waiting"

I have three apps that are on screen with a grey icon and a download progress indicator. They all say "waiting" and have been like this or 2 days. How can I fix them?
Any help appreciated, I'm new to iOS and I'm stumbling a bit.
Thanks.

Try a couple things.......first, reboot your iPad. Press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME tiem for at least 10 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart.
Sometimes, the App Store on iPad can get confused. Try downloading a free app (you can delete it later if you don't want it) and then see if that get's your waiting apps to download.

How do I delete apps that are duds?

Thanks JimHDK. I forgot to mention these duds are in my history of apps. The duds take up a lot of the listings and i'd like to no longer see them (for re-open or use). I do understand and use the feature you mentioned.

How do I play a game I have downloaded to iTunes?

I can't figure out to actually play a game I have downloaded to iTunes. Sorry, I am new to this, and I would like to play on a game on my desktop, but can't figure out how to do that. Is there a way to save it to my desktop so I can just click on it when I want to play?

It sounds like you have downloaded a game from the App Store in iTunes. These Apps can only be run on iOS devices (iPhones, iPads, iPods) and you can check the App's specifications on the info page in the App Store to see which specific devices the developers have made the game for.
