How to skip updates on iTunes store and iPod touch App store???

Hi all!!!
I would like to know how can I skip an updated APP? The game PacMan has been
updated and people had problems with it (slow) and I just wana skip it but there isn't
any way that I know of to remove that "1" update number and it's the same thing on my
iPod Touch App Store icon still has that red 1 on it and want to remove without resulting
to update the program.
Any help welcomed!!!!
PS: 1st Gen Touch

I was just researching the same! No results yet.
To be honest: this is a patyful thing in the UI of iOS. I can no longer tap "update all" since there are some I don't want to update.
P.S. Even Microsoft Windows 7 lets users to "hide updates" that one doesn't want so the OS updates never annoy again. How come iOS fail?

    Nope.

    Only upgrade to 10.7 or later if you are prepared:

    You needing to be running iOS 5 or later in order to do a Software Update from the device.  To run iOS 5 you need a 3G or 4G iPod Touch.  So if you really have a 4G iPod Touch, connect it to iTunes and you should be prompted about an update to its version of iOS.

    In order to develop & create apps for the iPod touch/iPhone, you need to be a registered developer, download the iPhone SDK (Mac OS only) here -> http://developer.apple.com/iphone/program/download.html then create the app and submit it to Apple.

  • How do I use my Itunes credit on the Mac App store

    I have a credit in iTunes which I wish to use to buy some apps on the Mac App store. However it doesnt seem to be taking that payment method. How do I solve this?

    iTunes and the Mac App Store are the same account and credits redeemed for one are available for the other. The issue may be that you have not allowed for the sales tax that the US store applies in the final steps of a sale. US prices do not yet have the local sales tax added. If the credit does nt cover the total the sustem will ask for another payment method to cover the remaining balance.

  • After updating to iTunes 7 and iPod 1.2, Ipod screen gets patchwork screen

    I updated to iTunes 7 and also updated my 60 gig video ipod to version 1.2 last night and things seemed to go fine but my ipod screen garbles intermittantly - almost looks like madras cloth - you can't read anything - there are very fine lines both verticle and horizontal directions -
    Sometimes (5x since last night) the ipod will lock up and i have to reset it. Reading the other posts, I tried turning off syc on podcasts but it is still doing it.
    I have no hacks of any kind.

    UPDATE - OK, I took the ipod into the apple store here - they tried to update it and get it fixed - ultimate resolution - get this...not a software issue at all - the hard drive on my 5G 60gig was on the verge of failing. Thankfully I was still within my first 6 months of purchase and the replacement was at no cost.
    So, APPLE, sorry for casting stones about the update. I was wrong...
    As far as diagnosing the hardware issue - you can reset the ipod and then listen to the hard drive - he said repeated clicking sounds and then a sound almost like crumpling paper (the best I can do) may be indicative - I think that's what he said (at least that's what I heard and asked him...)
    anyway, could be a hardware issue for you too.
    good luck.

  • How can I sync my iPhone 4S and iPod Touch 4G to ANY computer/itunes without having to erase EVERYTHING on it?

    I need to use another laptop to sync my music, I've already synced my iPhone 4S and iPod Touch 4G with my laptop and had to delete EVERYTHING to do so! I refuse to do this again, I was NEVER able to restore my phone back to it's original state since then.
    How can I sync up my idevices to ANY computer w/ iTunes without having to completely bomb my iphone and ipod? And if I can't do that, how can I back up all my music and apps? I've already tried "back up device" and that did absolutely NOTHING to help my predicament.
    Long story short, I had my devices synced to my desktop, my desktop broke, so I bought a laptop, synced my devices to my laptop after erasing all my data, and my laptop was destroyed during hurricane sandy, so now I have to use my parents/friends computers to sync new music and videos. BUT CAN'T BECAUSE MY DEVICES WERE ALREADY SYNCED TO MY LAPTOP AND DESKTOP!
    If I can get ANY help, I would greatly appreciate it.

  • Itunes 10 and ipod touch 2g not syncing

    Hi,
    Upgraded to iTunes 10.0.1 and Ipod Touch 2g OS4.1 and now my Ipod won't sync with my MacBook Pro. It gets a few stages through and either hangs at the backup stage or the calendar/contacts sync.
    I tried a full Ipod erase and restore, even as a new iPod - didn't work
    Any other ideas. Anyone else suffering this?
    Thanks!

    I am having the same issue. I have an iPhone 4 with the most recent software...it was fine when I synced it yesterday (on my Macbook Pro). Today I updated my iTunes, plugged in my phone, and I got nothing. It's charging...it just won't recognize my phone. Weird, huh?
    I haven't tried to restore it yet though. I can't stand losing text messages sent between backups...so I'm hoping I can wait this out and not lose those messages...

  • Is there a difference between apple app store and the mac app store

    i keep hearing about the mac app store, is there a difference between that and the regualr app store i use for iphone         

    Depends upon to whom you are speaking. There is the iTunes Store, sometimes called the App Store, from which Apple vends apps for iPhones, iPads, and iPods. Then there is the Mac App Store, MAS, also sometimes referred to as the App Store rather than the Mac App Store where Apple vends software for Mac computers.

  • IPod Touch App Store no longer can find updates

    This is real frustrating, and short of reformatting my iPod (which I am NOT going to do) I haven't been able to get this thing to work anymore. I tried turning WiFi off and on, logging out and then back into my itunes account, closing all running programs, rebooting, syncing to iTunes, etc.
    It started about 2-3 days ago, I had about 5 apps that had updates, but I didn't choose to update just yet. Anyway, when I did want to update last night, the App Store was now saying that there are no updates.
    The WiFi connection is working fine, I can still search apps in the App Store and install them, but the update feature appears to be broken now. When I go to updates it searches for a few seconds then claims "All Apps Are Up to Date" when I am fully aware that they are NOT.
    Any idea what could be causing this issue and how to fix it?

    Did the Apps get updated in your iTunes on your computer, which was then Synced with your Touch, and that's why they're no longer showing up?
    If not, a couple of things you could do as a test:
    1. In your iTunes/Apps library, click on the *Check for updates* button and see if anything happens.
    +Of course, the original 5 Apps may not show up if they're now up to date, and there maybe "other" Apps that appear on the list to replace those. Nothing we can do about that. However, if you are still convinced there are Apps requiring updates, try the next thing:+
    2. Look at the Apps in your iTunes library using the *As list* view. Make sure the version column is showing. Check the version number against the version shown in the Store for that App. I realise this could be a long process if you have a lot of Apps. If so, the last option is:
    3. Do nothing. A check will be automatically made each time you acces the Store via the Touch's Wi-Fi, so any updates will appear at another time. And you can manually click the *Check for updates* button in your computer's iTunes whenever you wish.
    I suppose it's possible that an update may get pulled if the developer realises there is still a problem - or even, a worse problem than before. I've never known that to happen, but it's either that or it remains one of life's great mysteries.
