IPod touch not downloading apps, updates or anything. What should I do?

My ipod touch is not downloading apps, updates or anything. It seems to require a restrictions password for some unknown reason. Can anyone help?

Forgotten RESTRICTIONS Passcode
- Restore from a backup that was make before you added the Restrictions passcode. If you restore from a backup made with the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode is also restored. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod. . Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.   
- If you are up to file manipulation see the following but it may not work for iOS 6.1.3 or iOS 7

    Finish the download on your computer in iTunes and then sync the app to the iPad and then delete it. You will probably have to let it fully download before you can delete it.
    You can try restarting the iPad and see if the download will resume - Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Yoy can try  this as well and see if the download will resume. Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Look in iTunes and see if there is a pending download in there that might be causing the delay. If there is a download there, try to finish that one first.

    Do you have themes installed or only personas?

  • TS1368 My iPad will not download app updates or new apps, however all other Internet connections do work, I can connect and browse apps just not download

    I can browse the iTunes store, get on the Internet ,etc, but it will not download apps or updates for my apps. I get a message that it cannot connect to the store

    Try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your Apple ID in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if it works.
    If that doesn't solve the problem, go to Settings > General > Date & Time and change the date to a few months in the future and then re-try.

  • My iPod touch is downloading and updating apps very slow more than an hour.

    My iPod touch 4th gen 32gb verson 4.3.1 is downloading and updating apps very slow more than an hour. I just got it a day ago and I backed up all my apps music and pictures and videos from iTunes. Few months ago I had an iPod touch but I lost it and it was working fine. Luckily before I lost it i backed up everything to iTunes so now everything that was in my old iPod is now in my new iPod. Anyways, When I first bought it I straight away backed up everything and saw that i had many updates on my apps. I started updating it all at once but even the first one was not loading at all and mty ipod was hanging many times during the updates so i cancelled all the updates. i even tried it on my computer and it was taking forever but my laptop does updating and downloading apps slower than my ipod so that doesnt matter. Even when I download an app on my iPod now its take more that an hour. So i was wondering, is my iPod slow cause I backed up too many things when i just got it . I have about 120 apps 150 plus photos and 70 videos and I backed it up all in one night on the day i got my ipod. So now I'm restoring my iPod and updating it to IOS 5 and see what happens. Hopefully it will be faster then but I still need to know what is main problem of m iPod hanging and slow updating/downloading. Need a reply ASAP. Thanks

    Still you can switch it off while syncing.
    You can also do a reset (Hold Sleep/Wake and Home buttons about 10 secs or more till Apple logo appears)

  • Using IPod touch to download apps, says I need IOS 4.3, but there aren't any available updates???

    Apparently, my current version is 4.2.1 Is there anyone who knows how I can get this update?

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1. If that is the case you will either have to get a newer model iPod or live without the newer apps

    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

  • IPod touch not opening app store or itunes store

    My brothers iPod touch will not open the iTunes store or App Store. I restored the iPod but it is still not working.

    Neither of these are the problems, but I did notice that the App Store will add badges when he needs updates, but when I attempt to open the App Store or iTunes Store it keeps saying it is loading, but thats all that it does.

  • Ipod touch not working after update

    I just attempted to install the latest iPod touch software update via itunes. It downloaded and started installing and everything seemed normal. Then I got a weird error that said something along the lines of "Could not update ipod. Error 9" Now the ipod won't turn on at all, won't reset, and itunes doesn't recognize it. When I plug it into my pc (where it is synced), I get a windows bubble that pops up saying the device isn't recognized. When I plug it into my mac, nothing happens at all.
    Any suggestions?

    Hey everyone. I had this same issue (1st Gen iTouch crashed in the middle of the update with an error, then perpetually showed the USB cable picture and wasn't recognized by my PC).
    I was flying West for Thanksgiving, and the prospect of not having my music was so terrifying that out of complete desperation, I borrowed my roommate's Mac to see if I could somehow magically finish the update there. For whatever reason, it worked!
    I don't know if it was the fact that it was a Mac, an older version of iTunes, or what, but I was able to do a restore after downloading the new firmware on his computer (I think it was an old Powerbook G4), though I lost all my data. Still, it works now, and I was (thank God) able to listen to it on the plane trip after re-adding my music.
    So I wish I could give more details, but at the very least, THERE IS HOPE! Maybe someone more daring and less busy than I can narrow down the variables, otherwise I'll see if I can figure more out when I get back home this weekend. However, I sincerely hope Apple takes responsibility and figures it out themselves before then. Given how serious losing your ability to listen to portable music is for most of us, I really can't believe that they haven't even deigned to address this issue on their own boards.
    Anyway, happy Thanksgiving everyone, and hang in there.

  • Ipod Touch not syncing after Update

    I've just restored my Ipod Touch with new software and it's been restored but it won't sync anything other than podcasts and the last album I added to my library.
    All the boxes are ticked to sync music, apps, films etc but it's just not doing it.
    Any ideas?

  • Ipod Touch Gen 2 App Update Issue :(

    Hi,
    I have an iPod Touch gen 2, recently it has stopped updating my apps. When I click on "update," it will ask me for my password, the it'll say "waiting" with the little bar, then the icon will return to normal, but no update has taken place and the App Store icon will show the original number of updates. I have turned the wifi on and off and rebooted many times.
    If I do a restore from iTunes, do I lose all game progresses?
    Help please.

    Can you update the apps pn your computer?
    Your game progresses are part of the backup data. In order to save them before you restore, back up manually by right clicking on your device in the device list and choosing "backup". A backup without a sync process will be performed. See what else is part of the backup here: iPhone and iPod touch: About backups
    Saving data and restoreing "as new ipod" is also described here: How to back up your data and set up as a new device

  • Does the original ipod touch not support apps or books?

    i've restarted, checked for updates, and restored, yet i can't get my apps or books onto my device. it's a first generation, but i know nothing about the operating system. any suggestions?

    You need to be running iOS 2 or later in order to install Apps.  Since you are only running iOS 1.x you likely have a 1G iPod Touch. See this article about purchasing the 3.1 update.

  • ITunes account not downloading app updates/purchases

    Little background:
    Purchased a new iMac and wanted a shared itunes library between all users. Imported my multiple users (2) from two other macs (unibody macbook 13" and older iMac) via migrate assistant. Subsequently have moved my entire libraries to a shared location.
    Heres my problem:
    My primary user account will not install apps to my library. The app will download (in iTunes) and will sit in the downloads folder as a temporary file (both for purchases and updates.) Music, TV, and Movies appear to work just fine but apps seem to be the only issue.
    Also, this is only happening with one of my two users on the computer. I can log into the other user account, sign in to my iTunes account and download new or update apps, tv, music just fine.
    Any ideas?

    Apple needs to apply the same logic they use on the iPhone and iPads to the iTunes. Just prompt me for the iTunes account of the App holder.  If I know it then I should be able to update it. It's a bit annoying to see that there are apps to update and to have to go through your entire families accounts in iTunes to finally find the correct one.

  • My 2nd gen. ipod touch wont download apps

    Whenever I try to download a game on my ipod touch (its uploaded to the newest version) the icon pops up and the loading bar is on the icon but it never fills up and after a couple seconds it just disappears! I've already turned it off and back on to see if that would work and it didn't! I deleted a lot of pictures and videos and other apps and I have a ton of open memory, but I can't figure out whats wrong! Help! i don't have time to go to the apple store and there isn't one nearby anyway, and the internet connection is good. I've never had this problem before and I have good Wi-fi so I dont know what to think. HELP!

    I had this issue before and it was related to security restrictions set on the touch itself
    On the touch itself go to: Settings->General->Restrictions 
    If there is a restrict for Installing Apps the Apps page will be greyed out in itunes

  • My ipod touch is stuck in the apple logo, what should I do?

    My ipod touch 4G, iOS 4.2.1, is stuck in the apple logo, and it turns on and off alone, but it is still in the logo, it doesn't proceed. This happened because I restored through the ipod not iTunes. Itunes doesn't find the Ipod, even though if I wait a long time. What should I do?

  • What should I do if my Ipod Touch keeps losing charge a lot?, What should I do if my Ipod Touch keeps losing charge a lot?

    My Ipod touch (3rd generation I believe) keeps losing charge really fast after I charge it and when it's charging the apple symbol keeps popping up.  Also, when I plug it into my computer it doesn't show up on my iTunes.  What should I do?

    Start here.
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
    When you get iTunes to see the iPod try the standrd fixes to rule out a software problem:
    - Reset. Nothing wil be lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod
    You could have a bad battery that needs replacment.  I can't really tell since you did say how long the battery lasted.
