Ipod wont let me download or update apps

I have a 5th generation ipod touch but now for some reason wont let me download apps or update apps. At first I thought the apps that wont update gliched my ipod so I deleted those apps but still nothing. This started after I got iOS 8.0.2, before it was fine. What happens is I can go into my app store, go to any app but after I click install but it never asks for my password ( I haven't tried with paid apps though) the app appears on my home screen loading but said waiting, though after some time its gone. It never downloaded. This is what happens with any app I try downloading. HELP PLEASE. if you can tell me any reason or solution, please do so. Thanks

I logged out of iTunes on my device (iPod Touch 5th Gen), turned off the recommended apps on the same page, and then shut device all the way off for about 10 minutes. Powered on, logged into account, and now it downloads apps using wi-fi when before it locked and only showed the "get +" box.

    Do you have any restrictions for purchasing apps on the phone? Settings > General > Restrictions. If you have a Mac computer or another Apple device can you purchase things in the App Store using the same Apple ID on something else?

  • My new iphone 5 wont let me download music or apps i have to answer 2 security questions i dont remember my answers is been so long how do i get past this to get my music

    my new iphone 5 wont let me download music of apps i have to answer 2 security questions its been so long since i have used these i dont remember the answers how can i get past this to download?

    In order to get those to work you will have to upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:

    and in the UK:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard, preferably the full 10.6.8 combo updater.

  • My ipod wont let me download a game it tells me i dont have enough storage when i have more then enough

    My ipod wont let me download a game it tells me i dont have enough storage when i have more then enough

    To download and install an app the iPod needs storage available equal to about three times the file download size.
    If you sync from your iTunes library less storage available is required.
    Does the app/iPod meet this?

  • HT4972 why cant i update my sons iphone 3gs to ios5 from ios4? it wont let me download him any apps?

    my sons iphone3gs has ios4 and it wont let me download any apps i need to update it to ios5 but dont know how ?!?!

    IF you actually have a 3GS, follow the instructions in the article from which the question was posted and you will be able to update to iOS6.
    If you have a 3G, iOS 4.2.1 is as high as it can go.

  • My ipod wont let me download 17+  apps even though I am 17?

    It is not tied to your Apple ID age. It is controlled by Restrictions. Settings>General>Restrictions.

  • TS1702 my ipod wont let me download any thing from the app store

  • My ipod wont let me download free apps.

    Every time i try to download a free app, a sign pops up saying "SIGN IN REQUIRED: Tap continue and sign in to view billing information." and when i press continue, it wants me to put in my credit card info.

    If you want
    Create a NEW account using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.

  • My ipod wont let me download free apps HELP?!?!???

    HELP?

    Are you trying to purchase the apps on your iPod or on your computer (on iTunes)? Is there an error message that it is sending you? I have an iPod touch, currently version 2.2.1, which is a very old version, and the problem with me was that I could barely purchase ANY apps, free or not. Basically, since my iPod was a really old version, I couldn't purchase very many apps and in order to buy any more, I had to update my iPod to the newer software. I'm actually doing this as I'm typing this message.
