[iPhone] Targetting iPod Touch
Is there any obvious reason why a simple iPhone app that doesn't use any of the iPhone-specific features doesn't work on the iPod Touch?
My app was built using the iPhone SDK (v 9m2199a) for iPhone OS 2.0, utilizing standard UIKit with CFSockStream for making TCP connections. It saves some data using NSKeyedUnarchiver. Other than that, there is no camera, gps, accelerometer or any device-specific feature access.
I tested it against my iPhone and it works fine, then submitted to the app store as being both iPhone and iPod Touch compatible. Since I don't actually own an iPod Touch, that was just a guess and a mistake on my part. A reviewer said that it doesn't work on the iPod Touch, so I'm investigating to see if there is anything that anyone might know. Googling didn't yield any conclusive results.
Any pointers or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I see no obvious reason why this should be the case. Also, I previously owned an iPod only an also assumed that it will work on the iPhone as well and so it did.
My guess would be that there is some sort of trouble with the device itself. I had several users complain about the app crashing. I adviced them to
a) try to restart there iPod/iPhone. This helped in most cases!
b) delete the app and redownload it with the same account as used to buy the app. this will reinstall the app without extra costs to the user. this has helped in all other cases with unusual app-behaviour so far.
May be this will help in your case as well.

When I plug my iphone into the computer to restore it I receive a "network connection timed out" message. However, when I plug in other iphones or ipod touches I can connect fine. Any help would be appreciated.
Try a powered external USB hub. It uses a 120V AC wall jack to power USB devices, and the Mac only needs to provide *just enough* to comminucate. Best Buy, Target, Walmart, ... about $20.

An email sent from my iMac has a button linked to a clip hosted on Vimeo. When received, the link functions on iMac and iPad, but opens a window of app icons on iPhone and iPod touch. Any ideas what's wrong?
For anyone else reading this thread, it is worth knowing that sometimes an email is, or can be, corrupted thereby jamming the works. The solution above is good, but I just wanted to suggest another one.
If the problem arises, go to an online mail access service, such as Mail2Web.com and login to you mail account there and delete the offending message.
Problem solved.
And George, as this is all entirely voluntary, whinging about no takers may not endear people to you. Besides which, a few minutes of searching on Google would have found you a number of solutions. -

I have 3 iphones, an ipod touch and an Ipad on the same itunes account. should I have a different account for each device? If so how do I get all my purchases, like music on all the devices?
You can sync as many devices as you want to the same iTunes account, there is no limit. You can have the same content on each device or different content, the choice is yours. iTunes will keep everything straight, by device, including separate backups. I'd suggest giving each device a unique name, to make things easier.

HELP! We have several Apple devices in our household (2 iPHOnes, 2 IPOD touch, 1 iPAD), and cannot get them to work correctly becuase my two children have to be under my creditcard and apple account. When I do this they cannot send me messages or facetime me, and when then try to do so with their friends it says my name and IPhone. Also, my husband and I want two seperate credit cards for iTUNEs but want to take advantage of the home share, but the one computer we have will not let us share. and had to have 2 apple ids created. WHy is this so confusing? Cant I reset everything under my Apple ID, and allow everyone to have their own email accounts and identity? ON top of all this, I have two AppleIDs, because my original one was a yahoo account and they changed over to me.com, now icloud.com/ HELP

HT2731 Does using the same Apple ID on my iPhone and iPod touch use my phones data plan?
Does using the same Apple ID on my iPhone and iPod touch use my phones data plan?
If you are using the internet then it's eating away at your data plan, irrespective of your Apple ID.
Here's an article about data plans:

You can move the rental between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period. However, the movie can only be played on one device at a time. If you rent a movie on an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Apple TV, it is not transferable to any other device and you must watch it on that device.
This is a confusing statement. Can really move the rental between devices or not???If you originally downloaded it to a computer, yes. If you originally downloaded it to an iOS device, probably not; if you want to try anyway, use the Transfer Purchases function in iTunes.

my ipod classic is visible in windows but not in itunes, this happens on 2 different computers where my iphone and ipod touch work fine which leads me to think something is up with the ipod itself and i cant find any threads to help.
any thoughts anyone??Perhaps the reason you haven't had any replies is because there is no such thing as an 8GB iPod Classic.
I suggest that you begin by correctly identifying which iPod you have.

Since installing the latest itunes to windows 8 my iphone and ipod touch is not being recognized in itunes, therefore i can't change playlists or add songs etc. Is this a fault with itunes as it was fine with the older version or is there something i can do. I'm not on IOS yet but would like to backup my phone first but can't do that atm due to not being able to view my phone on itunes!
ThanksHi, jodie_0182.
I would recommend the steps in the article below. See the section labeled Verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed > For Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8 > Update the Apple Mobile Device Driver.
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

If the above step does not resolve the issue, try all remaining steps in the article.

For the past 2-3 months everytime I connect my iPhone or iPod touch to my laptop to update the software through itunes I have issues. I have tried download and install option and the download only option. When the progress bar gets to 100 % downloading and switches to start to install I get an error message that says something like connection issue/timed out/network something. My internet is working so what am I doing wrong when I didn't used to have this problem?
I've been getting timed out for 2 days now, what finally worked for me was not plugging the phone into the computer and just doing the update through my wifi, worked perfectly, took less than 15 minutes

How do I get my music only on my IPhone and iPod touch, but keep it off my iPad.
If you're talking about stopping music purchased from the iTunes store automatically downloading to your iPad, go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and under Automatic Downloads and turn Music to Off. If your talking about syncing with iTunes, just uncheck Sync Music on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings before syncing your iPad.

I have an iPod Classic. I think it is a 5th generation. I would like to know if I can download games from the App store that say they are for iPads, iPhones, and iPod Touch. Will these work on my iPod Classic?
No, they won't.

IPhone 4 & iPod Touch can connect to Time Capsule, but not Internet
My family and I have an iPhone 4, iPhone 3G & iPod Touch. Our WiFi comes from a Time Capsule. My Macbook Pro can connect to the WiFi and get online, but the iPod & iPhones can only connect to the Wifi, not actually get online.
We some issues with our ISP last week, which took some time and some messing with the settings on Time Capsule to resolve. At one point, Airport Utility asked me if I'd like to switch to bridge mode...I'm not sure if that ever happened or not, to be honest, and don't know how to see if I'm in bridge mode or not (or even what that means, really).
With my iPhone 4, I can successfully connect to the wireless network, but the icon in the top left of the screen stays on 3G (unless my service drops in my house, in which case it shows the WiFi icon but won't let me connect via Safari or any other apps).
With the iPhone 3G, it does connect, but doesn't ever show the WiFi icon.
With the iPod, it says it connects, but doesn't ever show the WiFi icon. I get the error "Safari cannot open the page. The error was: Operation coudl not be completed. Invalid argument."
Does anyone have any idea what I could do to resolve this?I fixed this on my own. How did I do it?
1. Reset Time Capsule to factory settings (via Airport Utility)
2. Renamed my WiFi network
3. Restarted my router
Everything's fixed. I've seen this problem all over the Web but no solutions, so hopefully this will help someone.
