How do I download older versions of apps for my iPod?

How do I download older versions of apps which I purchased for my iPod Touch to my computer?  I am using iOS 4.2.1 and many apps have been updated to no longer work on older iPods.  I know I need to go to the iTunes store but there isn´t a navigation from there.

You can't download them; you can only sync previously downloaded copies from your iTunes library.

  • My app store won't let me download none of the older versions of apps for my ipod touch 2g.

    My app store won't let me download any of the older versions of an app, but in my sisters case she can and she has an ipod touch 2g just like me. She was able to download kik, twitter, instagram, and some more apps that told me I had to have ios 4.3.1 or higher to download. and theres only one app I want and its kik, can someone help me figure out whats wrong with my app store, it would be a great help.

    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.

    Hey Nathan,
    I know it can be a bit frustrating to try to get a version of an application that will work on an older iOS version. This article explains how to do it -
    Install the latest compatible version of an app on an earlier version of iOS or OS X - Apple Support
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • I have an older iPod Touch running iOS 4.2.1 which can no longer be updated. Is there a way to download older versions of apps that will run on this device? I am particularly interested in an older version of Minecraft PE. Thanks!

    Is there some way to download older versions of games that will run in an iPod Touch running iOS 4.2.1? I want to give my old device to a child who recently went through a hard time and his device was damaged. It is no use if it only has music on it. Thanks!

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

  • How can I download a version of Pages for my computer with Snow Leopard

    How can I download a version of Pages for my old MacBook that can only run Snow Leopard?

    Hi nteo,
    See this Mac knowledge base article.
    Snow Leopard must be at least version 10.6.6 to access the Mac app store. Use Apple menu > About this Mac to determine the version you have installed. Use Software Update to update the OS, if necessary.

    Pretty sure there never was iTunes 4.2.1 and if there was, it did not work with the iPod touch (any version).
    Do you mean iOS 4.2.1?

  • How do you get older versions of apps?

    I am trying to download iPrint for an epson printer and I have researched that I need version 1.2.1 but the version in the app store is version 2.0. Is there any way to get a previous version of an app from the app store?

    I have the same problem. I have many Apple software in use like iMovie, Keynote, iPhoto, FinalCut. When I do setup another Mac I always use 10.6.8 Snow Leopard. I need this because of PPC Software thats important for my work. But then I need Software that runs on 10.6.
    So how can I get the older versions? I suppose Apple wants us to buy it for each machine we run, right? But if I do not get older versions in the store, I only can use copies of the downloads I made earlier.
    As I see it, Apple does force us to always use the newest system. I do not like that.

  • How do i install older versions of apps on an older iPhone that has been updated to latest version it supports?

    how do i install an older compatible version of pandora?  I have an older 3G iphone i want to stream music from. OS is 4.2.1 and basically nothing installs and the OS will not upgrade past that OS version.

    You could try this.
    On your PC - download the latest version of the App.
    Once downloaded, select the App for syncing to your Phone.
    You will get a message saying it is not compatible.
    If you are lucky it may offer a previous version as an alternative.
    Worth a try.  It has worked on several apps on my old version 2 iPod.

  • Are there ways to download older versions of Apps from App Store?

    I own three iPads, and finally thought I would upgrade my original iPAD1 to the latest 5.1.1,   Imagine my surprise when many of my apps could not be restored, as only ios6 versions show on the store!!###@!%$ 
    Also backed up the iPAD twice,  one on my MBP and once on Windows,  and the upgraded from latest itunes on windows.   Although everything worked for 5.1.1., it is basically useless as many of my key apps now say they need IOS6 and of course ios6 is not supported on an Ipad1.   Have not connected it to the MacBook Pro as that is my last good backup as the windows itunes backed up again and resynced after the 5.1.1 upgrade.
    Right now I would be happy to restore my original iOS, so at least my working apps could come back, if the "Full Backup" inludes Apps and IOS version.  I still want use this tablet for remote TV control,  home automation,  and of course over a thousand books in Stanza that just disappeared .  
    Is there a way to restore from one of my backups to get back to where I was?
    Wondering if it is time to sell my Apple Stock?     Effectively bricked many of my working apps with no clear way to get them back.
    Highlights a real problem with the App Store model, built in obselence for an expensive device.

    If you had followed the recommended steps of transferring purchases into iTumes, backing up the iPad, downloading and installing the update, restoring from the backup and then syncing with iTunes, the older versions of the apps should have transferred into your iTunes library and should have been transferred back to the iPad as the very last step in the updating process.
    Did you try updating apps after you updated the iOS?

  • How do I download the free iWorks apps for my new Macbook Air?

    I purchased a new MacBook Air yesterday, which is supposed to come with free iWork and iLife, but I can't find them on here. If I go to the app store to download them individually (pages, numbers etc) it shows I can purchase... but not free.
