IPod Touch Apps don't work after connecting to PC!

Hi, can anyone help please?
I have an iMac at home and a PC at work, so use my iPod Touch between the two.
However, after I've connected my Touch to the work PC, pretty much every application doesn't work, and they will only work again once I've connected it back at home to my iMac!
Whatever application I open will start loading, then after about 3 seconds it just boots me back to the homepage...
It's driving me mad as there's no logical reason for it that I can see! The only things that still work are the music, video, photo and itunes tabs at the bottom!
However, once I've reconnected to the Mac at home they all work fine! And continue to work fine until the next time I connect to the work PC!
Any thoughts or fixes gratefully received!

Is the other machine "authorized" at the iTunes store? If not, it's probably overwriting the authorization of the home machine.

  • Brand new IPOD Touch Apps no longer work after upgrading software

    I got a Ipod touch for my wife Today at Wal-Mart. I brought it home, connected to wifi and downloaded some apps and also payed for some. They all worked fine. Then I connected to computer to transfer songs. It told me to upgrade the Ipod software so i Did. After it restarted none of the downloaded apps work anymore. I have read MANY MANY MANY discussions on this and there is no fix. I am not wiping out all the songs and reload everything all over again. It will take forever. My wifes BD is Friday and this is making me so mad after I just dropped $300 on this thing. APPLE!!! Where is the fix? I deleted the apps and reinstalled they still don't work. Anybody got this figured out? I am getting ready to get my money back and tell everyone to avoid buying ipod until they get this upgrade bug fixed.

    I have the same problem. Brand new two days ago. I synched the touch with Itunes but wasn't hooked up to the internet at the time so didn't do the software upgrade right away. Then I downloaded about a dozen apps (free and paid) with wifi directly to the touch. They all worked fine. Then I plugged it back in to Itunes and had it upgrade it to 3.1.2. It locked up Itunes several times since then and the downloaded apps no longer work (they start to open then disappear).
    The problem is, no one is listening to this problem (including Anna above)! Everyone says "just do a hard reboot, or restore to factory settings, reload the apps, etc." I've tried all the standard troubleshooting but none of it fixes this. It sure seems to me this is a problem with 3.1.2 but Apple isn't helping out here. Where are you APPLE? Use some of those outrageous profits you're making to fix the problem you have created. Here's $300 of my hard earned dollars pretty much down the drain.

    After being connected to a charging source overnight try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • All Mac apps don't work after cloning on new hd.

    All Mac apps don't work after cloning on new hd.
    I used CCC to clone 10.6.8 then onto new drive. Everything works BUT all Mac apps.
    Error: You can't open the app(s) because it is not supported on this type of Mac. (On MacBook 2011)
    Thanks for your help.

    All good. Just drag and dropped each application and they worked until I did a restart. Then repaired permissions and everything works.

  • My apps don't work after synching music files from my PC

    My apps don't work after synching music files from my PC through Itunes....though all the apps are shown in the Apps window in Itunes (The Apps match the iTunes account on the iPhone).....
    Disconnecting after the sync and After downloading any app from Appstore through Wi-Fi all my apps start working.....
    Please Help.....

    What happend is your phone forgot it was authorized to work with items associated with your apple id. If it happens again, download any free app to prompt the sign in, once you install the free app the others should work.

  • My Ipod touch apps are not working.

    My Ipod touch apps are not working. They attempt to appear but it seems like something is stopping them. They show up for less than a second then dissappear. Also all of my synced music dissappeared as well. I'm not sure if that is something in common?? I've tried resetting my ipod. I never link it to a computer, and that is why I synced my music from a friend. Please help me!

    Sorry I mean that I reset my settings. I havent reset the whole i pod. I want to try to keep all of my apps.

  • IPhone 3GS apps don't work after 4.3 upgrade

    Some apps like mail, safari, app store, ipod don't work after upgrading to iOS 4.3. itues is up to date and have never had issues before. tried to downgrade to 4.2 but was unable to. Help!

    I have the same issue, half the apps no longer work, just stays in 'updating' mode. I've tried uninstalling some but now the app store is freezing. THe ones I am able to reinstall give me error message saying I'm not logging in correctly (I am). I'm guessing some apps versions aren't compatible with the new software but a few I was able to use after the software update and now I can't

  • Ipod touch 5g wifi not working after update

    I recently did the update for ipod touch 5g, and now i cannot connect to any wifi network. I know the internet and connection is available as my phone and computer connect to my wifi just fine. How can i get my ipod to work on wifi again?

    If not this:
    iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
    Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
    Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
    Power up
    Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Then
    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    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 make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Several apps don't work after I upgraded OS today

  • Apps don't work after itunes sync and or ipod update!

    Today when I clicked on my apps they'd open for a split second and then close down. I did some searching on this forum and as a result deleted all my apps and re-installed them again (time consuming and frustrating as all my game data is gone!) and now they work.
    I assume this has to do with me either syncing my ipod with itunes for the 1st time yesterday or downloading an apple update for my ipod touch.
    Does anyone know if this is a regular problem (i.e is this going to happen everytime I sync my ipod or update it?) and is there any fix other than me deleting and re-installing my apps?
    Thanks!

    According to some of the AppleCare advisors that I've spoken with, a reset as you've mentioned can result in data loss.
    And according to this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430 :
    "Important: Only reset your iPhone or iPod touch if it is no longer responding."

  • Apps don't work after installing ios 6

    after I installed Ios 6 on my ipod touch 4th two wks ago none of my apps work correctly and I can't even connect to app store or itunes. I get an error "cannot connect to itunes".. also can't connect to safari. I sent my ipod over to apple but because i have physical damage they would not repair. I had no problems with it until i installed ios 6. i have restore back to new and still same issues.  thanks for any help! 

    If you still have the problem after restoring to factory settings/new iPod that indicates a hardware problem.

  • IPod touch apps don't appear in iTunes app

    My iTunes account used to purchase apps (I always do this on the iPod itself) does not show my apps when I am in iTunes on my computer (using same acct; I double-checked). I have nine pages of apps on the iPod, so I do not want to have to download them again to my computer from the apps store as suggested by people who updated to newer version and lost their apps. Any suggestions? When I connect my iPod to my computer, does the sync apps only work in one direction--computer to iPod? I am afraid to sync for fear of losing all my apps. Thank you for any help you can give me. bjfritz

    Any applications downloaded directly to iPod touch are automatically backed up to your iTunes library when you sync.
    If you don't trust the automatic system, open iTunes, press and hold Command+Option while connecting your iPod touch to your computer until you see iPod touch appear in the iTunes sidebar. This will prevent automatic syncing. Then use the iTunes File menu -> Transfer Purchases from XXX's iPod Touch.
