I'm really starting to hate my ipod touch and it's apps problem

I have the 3rd gen Ipod Touch. I have the most up to date software. I have had it a little over 2 weeks and have had to wipe everything off at least 8 times because the apps stop working. It usually happens after a sync so I turn auto-sync off but it still syncs without my permission. Then none of my apps work. I have been storing important information on it and I lose it all everytime. I can't restore from a back-up because each time it syncs it deletes the good back-up and replaces with a bad one. This is a real problem for me. It takes over 3 hours just to put all the music and videos back on. I've had a Zune and if it weren't for the apps I would've just gotten another Zune. Useful or fun apps don't mean nothing when they don't work though.

My Ipod Touch wont let me use any apps, ive restored 3 times and did a hard reset. nothing seems to work. when i try to open an app the screen flashes then nothing happends. all the apps it comes with work, just not the ones i download. ive tried downloading them straight to the ipod touch and ive tried downloading them threw itunes then syncing them to my ipod touch. nothing seems to work. my ipod touch hates me..

  • Ipod Touch and Anrgy Birds App

    I am trying to install Angry Birds App onto my iPod Touch and I am getting error message "Application Not Compatible - This application requires the iPhone 3.0 Software Update"...I have updated the iPod Touch thru iTunes.
    Any Suggestions??

    What version of the iOS in on your iPod? You can find out by going to Settings>General>About in the Version line. You have first generation iPod and need to pay to update to 3.1.3. To update see:

  • I updated my iPod Touch, and now the App Store won't stop crashing?

    I just got a new update for my iPod touch. I had to delete a few apps to make space. Then, I proceeded downloading. I have the 4th generation and my iPod is about 6 months old (I had to get another one from my warranty because my other one got broken) Now, whenever I click on the App Store, it starts to load, and then it crashes. What do I do?

    You might try clearing all the apps out of the recently used apps menu, or doing a two-finger reset (home and lock buttons until you see the Apple logo on the screen). I've seen similar posts that were resolved by doing that, but it hasn't worked for me. If you figure it out, I'd definitely be interested.

  • Ipod Touch and Macbook Pro Bluetooth problems (ISO4 related)

    Hi all,
    Before the update I wasn't having any problems, but now when I try to connect with bluetooth I can pair, but it won't connect. It says I don't "have the necessary services" for bluetooth. Any ideas?

    I bought a Macbook Pro and ipod touch 3 weeks ago. I am shocked and disappointed to learn that i'm not able to connect these devices via bluetooth. Searching through forums and discussion pages I see that this is by design. I fail to understand why.
    On more occasions than I care to comment I have defended Apple products against sceptical attacks that dismiss the company's innovation as pure hype and suggest the proliferation of its 'locked' and 'exclusive' features signal the rise of the 'new dark side'. I have been left with little argument to continue this defence.
    I regret that I will seriously reconsider my next purchase of an Apple product.

  • Ipod Touch and Windows 7 sync/visibility issues Issues

    Hi All
    Just wondering if anyone knows when Apple intend to fix the ongoing problem with Ipod touch and windows 7 sync problems.
    I have just got windows 7 64 bit from Vista 64 Bit. I had no problems before the clean install.
    Now I have to close my pc down before I attach my pod for sync, when it shows up on itunes it only syncs twenty or so tracks before it "times out" the pc freezes untill i cancel the sync on the ipod and disconnect it.
    I have tried like many other people to re-install itunes the latest version 9.02 (i think). I have also ran the diagnsotic check from itunes and that just shows that no Ipod is connected. Itunes itself runs and downloads ok.

  • I have a 3G iPod touch and it won't update anymore and the apps I need needs the update what should I do ?

    Have a 3G iPod touch and I have apps I need but needs a new update and I can't go any further updates. Wondering what I can do?

    A 3rd gen iPod touch can run up to iOS 5.1.1.  If the apps you need require a later version of iOS, you will need a newer iPod touch.
    The 4th gen model, which is still available on Apple Store's refurb ("Special Deals") page can run up to iOS 6.1.3.  The current 5th gen model can run the current iOS 7.x.

  • How to erase ipod touch and start over

    Hello All,
    Michael K. here. This is my first post and my first time here. I hope you can help. Thanks.
    I downloaded IOS 8 a few days ago onto my iPod Touch, 5th gen.
    Ever since I put the IOS 8 on I've had nothing but problems! ----- ie: message states I have no internet  connection. I don't. How do I get it back?
    I've checked my setting in the Wi-Fi section and my ID is there, with a checkmark next to it. Above it though is: Wi-Fi with the green area on the on/off switch showing. My ID has a padlock, the wi-fi symbol and the circled i.
    When I go to the ICloud page on the ipod ( as instructed in the ipod IOS 8 manual I found on the internet ) it has my name at the top of the page, my email address in small letters directly under it and then a space that asks for my password.I changed my password on my Mac-mini ( which I'm using now ) about an hour ago. I've typed my password into that space a million times, just to be sure I wasn't mistyping it but after waiting through the " verifying " process, I get a message that reads : " The password you entered is incorrect " ----- then there's an " OK " to check.
    Please help!
    I just got this Mac-mini four days ago, replacing an HP ChromeBox. I thought that this was gonna be smooth sailing since the swap. Wrong!
    Very frustrating not to be able go listen to podcasts on the iPod and also miss the music while exercising.
    So I thought that by " wiping out the iPod Touch " and starting with a " New " ipod, I could get the thing working again.
    As you've no-doubt surmised, I'm not very computer literate. My reason for wiping out the Touch is because that's how I remember to " fix " many things.
    Heck, just unplug it, wait 15-20 seconds, plug it in again, and Viola!!!!! the problem is fixed.
    But should I wipe out my ipod? There's nothing really on it that I need. I can install stuff I want again later.
    Anyway, sorry for the long rant, but can anyone tell me what to do to get m iPod working again?
    I'd REALLY appreciate it!
    Thank you,
    Michael K.

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network      
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • I upgraded some of my apps on my ipod touch, and one of them, my candy crush app is messed up, couldn't connect to facebook, tried re-installing it, same thing. now i have to start from the begining again in candy crush. please help

    There is nothing wrong with the OS update.
    Delete ALL your email accounts.
    Restart Playbook
    Put the accounts back and ensure they are all set with PUSH ON.  Manual (push off) will burn battery.
    Similarly delete your wifi connections and add back when required. 
    Turn off wifi is not connected to wifi. 
    Any "hunting for connection" in email or wifi will burn up battery.
