IPhoto For iOS & iPod Touch 4G - Not Compatible... Why?

Hey there!
Not to sound accusing or anything, but why has Apple blocked out the iPod Touch 4G when it has come to iPhoto? I mean, I have Pages, Numbers, Keynote, iMovie, and Garageband, and all of them work flawlessly. Why suddenly block off the last of the iLife trilogy? I bought this application via iTunes, seeing as my Mum owns a iPhone 4, but also installed it to my iPod Touch 4G via the iPhone Configuration Utility. I've had it for around 9 hours now, and it hasn't crashed once. I've edited, exported, and multitasked while doing it. Sure, updating the photo library takes a while, but is that really a reason to block it off completely? I tried installing it from my 'purchased' list, and I was told that the 'This app requires a digital compass'. This got me irate. I mean, what do I need a digital compass for?! Can't I just edit photos?! I don't even use my iPod to take photos! I take them using my Sony DSC-2000, sync them via iTunes, and usually edit them in apps on there! It, to me, is actually the worst excuse I have EVER heard of. Low RAM? Sure, I can tolerate that, but even with the 256mb that the iPod Touch has, it works like a charm, and hasn't frozen or crashed on me once. Even with multitasking. I would love to see this issue resolved, as I am actually debating whether or not to find a different source to sync my photos from. The iPod Touch at least deserves the last of the iLife trilogy, and it's a tad harsh to have to wait till the next hardware refresh, don't you think?
Alex.

Thats the sole reason i wanted this thread for.. You have the app for iphone 4 and 4S but not for iPod touch? That happens very rarely unless it has HD content or compass utility. I was wondering if the RAM was the drawback or someting else. Thanks Stairhopper for your reply.. and thanks planb77 I will report it to APPLE

  • Can not download ANYTHING from my apps on my iPod Touch, application Not compatible this application requires the iPhone 3.0 software update. Why? It's an touch not a phone

    After restoring my iPod touch I am unable to download anything from itunes and my app. Keeps telling me to down load iPhone 3.0 update. Why if it's an touch not an iPhone?

    I sounds like you have the first generation (1G) iPod Touch with an iOS earlier than 2.0,  Yu can identify your ipod here:
    Identifying iPod models
    You can identify your iOS version by going to Settings>General>About and look by Version.  Yu can update ti iOS 3.1.3 (the lated for the 1G) by this link.  It is a paid update.  You may have to try another browser to get he sublink to work correctly.

  • My camera for my ipod touch is not working

    i can click on the camera app but when it comes up the shutter stays closed please help

    if that does not work try this: this will delete the ipos touch.
    1. First, Open up iTunes, plug in your iPod Touch to the CPU*'s USB port. Turn on your CPU's speaker and make sure it is loud enough that you can hear it.
    2. Hold down the power button (top right) and the home button (located on the front bottom of your iPod Touch) simutaneously, until the screen goes black and the device turns off. (past the red slider/slide to power off screen)
    3. Now let go of the Power button, but continue to hold the Home button. Your iPod Touch should have turned off and the screen should not be on.
    4. After around ~10-20 seconds, you will hear a noise (beep/ding) from your CPU as if it had just recognized a new hardware device, now iTunes should recognize it in DFU mode.
    5. After iTunes recognizes the iPod Touch, let go of the Home button otherwise it will go into recovery mode and you will have to do the entire DFU process over again.
    6. You will know when you have put your iPod Touch correctly into DFU mode when the display is blank and that you do not have anything on your device.
    7. Restore your iPod touch with itunes.

  • Why does the Latest update for iOS 7 say firmware not compatible

    Hi,
    I have tried updating my daughters iPad mini (original not retina) with latest update. I have it connected to the mac via iTunes and it downloads the update ok. When it tries to install it it says the firmware is not compatible. It is a wifi only model. I have updated 4 iPhones, 1 identical iPad mini and my iPad 2 with no problems. Can anyone help?
    Thanks

    Reset iPad and try again.
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears

  • One of the applications for the ipod touch is not working

    Alright.
    So, what is it supposed to do, that it is not doing?
    Choose one:
    Opening, then quitting.
    Not opening at all.
    Telling you it can't connect to a server or database.
    Something else.

  • Ipod touch will not update from IOS version 6.1.3 to IOS version 7

    Are the previous ipod touch devices not compatible? An ipad the same age updated just fine.

    Only the iPod 5th generation can update to iOS 7. If you have an earlier model then you cannot update to iOS 7.

  • HT4623 Will ios 7 be available for the iPod Touch 4th Generation

    Just wondering if anyone knew when or if ios 7 will be made available for the iPod Touch 4th Generation. 

    No.
    As Apple said in June, iOS 7 is not compatible with the 4G iPod. Not enough RAM
    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
