How do I install legacy apps on my iPod touch with iOS3.1.3?

I know this has probably been asked before, but I have an older iPod Touch with iOS 3.1.3, and this is the last iOS that could be installed. I am trying to load Pandora back onto it, I had it on before but I wiped the iPod when I loaned it to someone.  Well, I am trying to re-load Pandora and it will not let me. It says my OS has to be updated, which it can't. I have read that when trying to download apps from the iTunes store it would offer the legacy app if you needed it. I am not getting that option. Am I missing something?
Thanks!

To more easily find compatible apps:
iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
The legacy app method  do not apple to iOS 3.1.3, only 4.2.1 and later,
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
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.

    You can't
    . As Apple said in June, iOS 7 is not compatible with the 4G iPod.
    All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory (RAM). The 4G iPod only has 256 MB

  • As a grand parent, how can I put some apps on an ipod touch and then give it as a gift?

    As a grand parent, how can I put some apps on an ipod touch and then give it as a gift?

    Apps and many other purchases are tied to the iTunes Store account via which they were purchased. So if you buy the app, that app is tied to your iTunes Store account. Without that account information, the child could not update the app nor back it up.
    I'd also suggest giving the child an iTunes gift card or gift certificate along with the iPod. If the child is too young to have and manage his or her own iTunes Store account, then his or her parent could set up an iTunes Store account to purchase the apps. That could be done with that gift card and not need a credit card. You can also gift specific apps, though again that would require the child or a parent to open an iTunes Store account through which to redeem the gift. For more information on gift options, see:

    How do I delete a app from my Ipod Touch?

    You touch and hold the app until they all start to wiggle and the tap the circled minus sign by the app you want to delete
    You can't delete the apps that came with the iPod
    You can turn on a Restriction that prevents deleting any apps.

    Touch and hold the app until a black circle with an X appears, tap the black circle and it is gone...unless it is an app that was bundled with the iOS, those cannot be deleted.

    do any one know how much it is to get the new ipod touch with the camera if you trade in your old ipod touch?

    Sounds like you need a new battery.  I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store to confirm.  Apple will replace the battery for $79.  A third-party place like the folloing may be less expensive.  Google for more places.

  • How can I get apps for my ipod touch with ios 2.2?

    I've been trying to search for games/apps for my iPod Touch but can't seem to find anything that doesn't required iOS 3.0 or greater.
    Does anyone have any suggested apps/games for the older gen ipod touch?  Is there a way to search the apps store for these older apps?

    If I may ask, why do you not just upgrade your iPod's operating system? Even the first-generation iPod touch can run iOS 3, and the 2nd-generation iPod touch can run iOS 4, though not all features work. Then you would have a much broader range of apps available to you.
    Regards.

  • How do I install an App on 200 iPods for University Students

    What kind of options are there for installing the same app (a free app) on 200 different iPod Touches?
    We have 200 new iPod touches that we need to get into the hands of 200 nursing students. We would like to load the Skyscape Resources app on each of the iPod Touches before giving them to the students.
    We have a computer lab with 50 windows xp computers. Each student has their own network login.
    So, is it possible to install the app for the students ahead of time or do they each need to create / sign into their own iTunes account first? Do they then have to use that same computer whenever they want to sync or can they use any of the computers in the lab?
    How do I do this?
    Thanks ahead of time for your consideration in this matter.

    Hopefully you already know about Apple's Education websites; but in case you don't start at http://www.apple.com/education
    http://www.apple.com/education/leaders-administrators/mobile-learning.html may be a starting point to address your issue. I know at a recent NSBA (National School Boards Association) I attended there was a presentation on using touches in the classroom. Good luck!
