Ipod Touch applications on 2 different Macs

I sync my ipod Touch with my Mac Book Pro weekly and all the applications correspond correctly. Inadvertently I downloaded 4 applications while I was on my iMac. This applications never show up in My Applications on MacBook iTunes, just on iTunes iMac. Is there an easy way to move them over.
Thanks

You can move them over by copying to a flash drive, or simply re-download them on the other Mac.

Hello Casey B,
And welcome to Apple Discussions!
Try re-installing the latest version from this page on top of the current installed version and see if that helps.

If nothing else, remove the Application from your Mac entirely, and again download the latest version from the link above.

When my iPod Touch is connected to my Mac, and I select Update to update the software of my iPod Touch, I get a message saying that my iTunes software is current, but it will not update my iPod Touch software. Is there a bug in the iPod program?

If you have the first gen ipod touch as your information shows, then you would have to buy a software update:

I need to synch my iphone, ipod touch and classic to a Mac that I have and 2 I am about to buy. I have legally paid for all my music. If I use migration on my new Macs and clone the original, can I use my iAppliances on all 3 Macs?

Yes.
You can authorize up to 5 computers to play itunes music ( pre-itunes plus). There is no limit on itunes plus ( all itunes music for the past several years) and imported music.
You can sync as many ipods/ipads/iphones as you like to each of your computers.

Is there a way to download my MacLife magazines (currently through Newsstand) on my iPod Touch 4, to either my Mac Air, or even an extra drive, so that I can read them. All of my subscriptions were deleted due to insufficient memory.

Download the app again in the Purchased tab of the app store on the iPad. You can download the apps again for free as long as you use the same Apple ID.

Connect the iPad to the computer and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Apps Tab on the right.

Best database format for iPhone / iPod Touch Application?

Hello Adobe Community, I hope you can help me again with this one:
I plan to develop an iPhone / iPod Touch application that reads from an offline database (basically a big list of text data). Which format should / could I use? XML? Any other? And how would the XML be embedded / included in the App?
Thank you very much in advance!
Best regards,
Chico

Hi Alex, thanks for replying - I was hoping you would!
Are you sure about that? It has been said that it is not possible, here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/533885?tstart=0
Also, would you have a specific link to some example / tutorial / documentation where it works with Flash?
Finally, are you being specific about the upcoming cs5, or would it work on (current) cs4?
Thanks a ton!

How can i get my ipod touch to sync with my mac & itunes?

I've already restarted and reset ALL of my settings in my ipod touch. I even erased all of my music, if that helps. I' ve updated my itunes to the latest version twice. I've restarted my mac numerous times. My ipod touch will not sync at all. It won't even show that it's charging when i have it plugged into my mac. I've also used 2 different USB connections (wires) & none of this has done the job. Help please.

Try here. Do not forget the Additional Information topic.

Hi rybenjamin,
Have you tried a different USB cable? Do you have a different USB port on your Mac you can try? If not, then using a clean, soft toothbrush, gently clean the USB port on the Mac and then try again. Also, make sure your cable is working - use a different one if you have one.
One last thing - have you tried rebooting your Mac?
Cheers,

I updated my ipod touch 2G on a different computer, but now it won't work on my old computer. How do I fix it so I can get it to work on my old computer?

I updated my ipod touch 2G to 4.2.1 on a different computer, but now it won't work on my old computer. How do I fix it so I can get it to work on my old computer? Previously it was running on 4.1

To recognize your iPod touch on your Mac, AMDS has to be installed.

New iPod touch won't sync to Mac.

I just got a new iPod touch, & it says to plug it into my computer & iTunes will come up. But it hasn't. iPhoto has come up instead! I am extremely confused, & this has never happened before [I've had 2 iPods before this] I've searched the website & called the people, but they don't know what is wrong. Please help!
It is also completely charged. Plus, I have manually opened iTunes myself & still nothing has happened.
If anyone has any ideas, then please contact me at ZOMGCarina at aim dot com
Email or IM is fine. I also have MSN, ZOMG.Carina at hotmail dot com. Same thing goes for that one as well. I will most likely forget the link to get back to this, that it why I'm offering my screen names. Thanks in advance. :] <3

I assume you are using a Mac. To stop iPhoto from opening automatically, open "Image Capture" in your applications folder. Go to Image Capture -> Preferences -> Camera and set it to read "when a camera is connected, open No Application." You can still use iPhoto by starting it yourself.
Plug in your iPod again. Make sure you are using a USB 2.0 slot directly on your computer, a USB hub should not be used.
If you start iTunes and it doesn't show your phone, you might need to remove and reinstall the Apple Mobile Device Service. Check out this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1747 for instructions.
PS: You'll get a lot better advice here if you go to "My Settings" in the box to the right under the Welcome and fill out some information about what model computer and what operating system you have.

IPod Touch - Switch from PC to Mac

Hello,
i bought an iPod Touch recently, Windows formatted, updated it to 1.1.3, and bought also the 5 new apps. Now, I want to use the iPod on my MacBook.
Do I have to reformat the iPod ? If I do so, do I lose the 5 new apps update ?
Thanks in advance for your answers.

You won't lose the Jan apps if you back up the the apps file listed in the instructions below and you use the same iTunes account. When you move to the Mac, copy the file to the correct folder location as mentioned below and you should be just fine.
(Instructions previously posted by A A P L):
"The "iPod touch App Pack 4A93.ipa" file can be copied from the computer where you purchased it to your primary iTunes library computer, and sync the iPod from there.
The file is located here:
Mac OS X:
~/Library/iTunes/Mobile Applications
Windows XP
C:\Documents and Settingsuser name\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\Mobile Applications\
Windows Vista:
C:\Usersuser name\AppData\Roaming
Apple Computer\iTunes\Mobile Applications\
Note: These locations are hidden by default in Windows. You can these locations by choosing "Show hidden files and folder" in the View tab of the Folder Options Control Panel.
Once you have copied the "iPod touch App Pack 4A93.ipa" file to the computer with your home library, make a new folder named Mobile Applications in the correct location, and place the "iPod touch App Pack 4A93.ipa" file there. Open iTunes and sync your iPod touch."

I don't want to sync my ipod touch applications!!!!

I downloaded a bunch of applications directly using my ipod touch. Later, I connected it to my computer to update music and itunes began to sync all those applications and copied them from the ipod to the computer. When I selected that I don't want to sync applications, itunes proceeded to delete all of them from my ipod.
I don't sync my music or videos and I manipulate the content manually. I should be able to do the same with my applications. I don't need them on the computer. I just want to be able to use them on the ipod.
The entire thing makes no sense. I downloaded apps to my ipod, the only place that I can and will use them and yet I am forced to always transfer them to my computer, where they are of no use. And on top of that, they get deleted from the ipod if I don't want to sync.
Isn't there any way around this? Shouldn't there be a way to manually manage applications? If there is, I don't see it. Anyone have any suggestions?

I think the idea is that an application downloaded directly to the iPod from the store is backed up into iTunes and then copied back onto the iPod. This way, if you lose the content of the iPod (one example, due to a restore) the application (that you have paid for - no differentiation between free and paid!) is not lost.
The basic premise of an iPod is that it's a copy of your iTunes Library, and it's always recommended that your iPod is not the only place your content is stored.

Ipod touch 2nd gen. and different Computer.

Hello, I just found my old ipod touch 2nd generation, I plugged it on my mac (not the main pc of the ipod) and it says that there's a new update is availlable. If a accept to load the update, does my ipod will sync with my Iphone's library that's on my mac?? 'Cause there is some music I would like to keep and those songs aren't on my mac!
Don't know if you understood but thanks for helping me if you do!

Syncing to a new iTunes library or computer will erase your iPod. Only if you back up your iPod manually before syncing, you can restore your device from that backup again. A manual backup does not include the sync process.
Do this:
Disable autosync in iTunes, connect your iPod to your new computer and right click on it in the device list and choose backup. iTunes will backup your iPod without syncing.
Transfer your purchases the same way, choosing "transfer purchases" this time.
When you connect your phone for the first time, all media content will be erased. But you can restore your settings and app data from your manual backup afterwards.
Don't forget to set up at least one contact and event on your new computer to be able to merge calendars and contacts when you sync the iPod for the first time.
Music is one way only, from the computer to your device, unless you bought the songs in iTunes and transferred your purchases.
There is 3rd party software out there, but not supported by Apple, see this thread:http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013615&tstart=0

Why is my iPod touch repeatedly asking for different iTunes account passwords?

Does anyone know why my iPod Touch keeps asking for 5 different iTunes account passwords? Also, in the iTunes app it says I have 651 songs preparing to download, and I didnt tell it to download them. Does anyone know why this keeps happening? It only began after I reset my iPod.

I have this problem too. I'm trying to restore an iPod and it asks me for account numbers. Is there Anyway to get around it? Cause it does not seem fair if I can have and listen to it on my iTunes but not my iPod. The one account is from a girl who litteraly went mentally insane, I'm not going to be asking for her password EvER. And the other is An ex friend and I don't even know who the third account is! This is really not fair and sooooo annoying. It won't put on alll my other music without these passwords. There has to be a fix for this. I can't even use my iPod and get music on it!
