IPhone apps on iPod Touch?

Will the iPhone OS 2.0 apps (available in the apple store starting tomorrow) also running on the iPod Touch? If yes, do I need a Software update on my iPod Touch?

I've got the latest version of itunes and the latest software on my ipod touch, i've downloaded a few apps, they are on the side bar on the left of itunes but I cannot get then on the touch. According to the apple website I should have a tab for apps when I plug in my ipod, don't have that. I've also ticked the applications box in preferences but still no luck.

IPhone apps to iPod Touch

If I buy apps for the iPhone 4 and buy a 4th gen iPod Touch, can I sync those apps to the iPod Touch? Meaning, if the iPod is connected to my main iTunes account/User ID can I have the same app installed on the two devices I own? Or do I need to re-purcahse for each device?
I do realize that some apps are iPhone only, ie. one's that are phone dialing apps/SMS apps, etc...
But for the others that are iPhone/iPod Touch, is this how it works? Just sync two iOS devices to iTunes and keep them unique? Say iPhone has 40 apps, iPod Touch has 25 of those apps. If I buy apps on the iPod Touch, when it syncs to the desktop, can I put it on the iPhone and vice-versa?
I've only got a 16 GB iPhone and am upgrading from an 80 GB iPod Classic, so want something that can hold most of my music/video library (64 GB iPod Touch), but will also play some games, run productivity apps, etc...
Thanks

Best option? Most likely connect your iPhone to the computer you generally Sync with. When you've connected the phone up, you will want to find your iPhone name on the left hand side under 'Devices' and Right Click (if on Windows) -or- Ctrl+Click (if on Mac) on the device and select the option to Transfer Purchases.
Once this is done, connect up your iPod Touch, navigate to the Apps tab for the device and select the option to Sync Apps and select the Apps you wish to Sync
As an aside, this depends on the App for the data. Some apps that require to to login using an AppleID or else will be stored Serverside and thus transferrable to the new device, however some Apps the data will be stored locally (ie the Phone itself) so it wouldn't be transferred across. It's kind of a hit or a miss with if it is stored or not, basically best option would be to sync and find out

Purchasing iPhone Apps for iPod touch

I can't find a way to purchase mail, maps, etc... on the iTunes music store for my iPod Touch. I even tried the link to them from apple's website, but it takes me to an info page within iTunes and when I click okay it just goes to the front page of the store.

Hey dahlberg,
This link should take you to the January Software Upgrade purchase screen in iTunes.

Two mac laptops, one iPhone and an iPod touch. Sync apps?

Hi there, between my wife and I, we have two Mac laptops, one iPhone and an iPod touch. The iPod touch is new- is it possible to get the apps that have already been purchased for the iPhone, onto the iTouch?

but can i then only ever use both the iphone and itouch with that particular mac?
you can use home sharing to transfer media files (incl. apps) between the two Macs. if you and your wife use separate Apple ID's to purchase content, authorize the wife's machine for yours and yours for hers.
is there a way to make both portable devices work with both macs?
by design, iOS devices sync with only one library at a time.
i am hoping the "home sharing" feature will be the answer but so far i have not been able to make it work.

How do i transfer the music and apps from ipod touch to iphone

how do i transfer the music and apps from ipod touch to iphone

If you sign in to your Apple ID then your apps will be visible by clicking the "purchased" tab at the bottom of the screen.
Music you've purchased from Apple will appear automatically if you sign in to your account. Other music you'll need to download from your PC assuming you're not subscribed to iTunes Match.

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.

Why can't I text certain people without iPhones on my iPod touch

Why can't I text certain people without iPhones on my iPod touch how do I text people on a different kind of phone please help!

Elitegate. The Whatsapp app is only compatible with iPhones. It will not install on any other device.
However, there are other texting apps like TexpPlus, Viber, Text Free that are compatible with later model iPods.

If you take your ipad everywhere, do you need an iphone or an ipod touch?

If you really like the ipad and take it with you everywhere, do you really now need a smartphone like an iphone or an ipod touch. The ipad has all the apps the iphone or ipod touch has and its a larger screen. Why would now use your phone for anything put making phone calls. If so, why not get a much cheaper phone with your ipad. The same holds for the ipod touch.

Currently, receiving calls on Skype requires that the app be active.
There is a way to make that work when other apps are running. I do it all the time on my iPhone. Unfortunately, I can't discuss how I do it, here.

You can only sync with one computer. and y have to sync to get apps from computer to the iPod. You can sync using the manual method.
Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
You can copy iTunes purchases from iPod to iTunes by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
Try resetting the iPod:
To reset the iPod without the hardware buttons,
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. All your wifi and bluetooth preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected. You will have to rejoin wifi networks and repair BT devices

IPhone, iPad and iPod touch Video

On the next iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, you should really make it so you can screenshare, meaning you can take photos without the camera but you should be able to make videos. So when you take a photo, you press the home button and the turn off /turn on button at the same time quickly. If you hold them both at the same time for a few seconds, they should be able to take videos! It'd be a cool feature, considering skype is an app and FaceTime and people want to screen share. Hope it happens, and mention me for the idea! -Micah

3rd party apps on iPod Touch starting February - Now I'll get one

Nice moves Apple. (3rd party apps on iPod Touch and iPhone + DRM-tunes for .99$)
http://www.apple.com/startpage/
Now you're finally convincing me to get a Touch. By February.
Thanks for listening to popular demand.

I hope they can make the date. They have a big task in front of them especially for the iPhone as a bug or virus can take down the Cell system if the proper safe guards are not in place.
I bet Apple has been working on this even before they launched the iPhone, but did not want to tell anyone as the development cycle was going to be so long.
Apple has always prided themselves on having the best platforms for porting applications. Going away from this is unlikely, but the iPhone and iPod touch took them in a direction that is more complicated than a PC on the internet.
For those that have wanted the iPod touch or Iphone to have more PDA features, I think this move by Apple will clearly put them into that market. The only issue I see is getting directly into the memory to store documents to support the applications. You used to be able to do on older iPods.
Anyway, great job Apple you have restored my faith in you following the right path.

Using iPhone 5 as iPod touch. Help?

I currently have an iPhone 5 that I bought through Sprint. It's on a cellphone plan through Sprint as well. I'm really wanting to cut some financial corners and am hoping that it is possible to cancel my Sprint services but still be able to use the phone as an iPod. I suppose I just need a walk through on how to make this happen. Once I terminate my sprint service, can I just continue using the phone or are there steps in between that? Also, I know I there are apps that you can download in order to still be able to text and make calls. Could someone tell me what those are? For example, would GoogleVoice work or not?
Thank you!

As far as texting and making calls, apps such as Pinger or TextFree work wifi/3G in a VoIP manor. It gives you a real phone number that you can purchase minutes (or earn them in certain ways) and it gives you free unlimited texting. As far as using the iPhone as an iPod Touch, I have not found anyhting pointing to the idea that it would not work. It would be a wifi-only iPod Touch 5, but it SHOULD still work.
