Indeed, the apps you download from the iTunes Store require the IOS operating system and will run only on mobile devices. You can buy them on your mac and sync them to your IOS devices, because it is more convenient to browse the iTunes App Store from a computer with a larger screen than from your iPhone or iPod. Also is it easier to sync them to all your devices and to back them up, if you have them in your iTunes library.

  • After upgrading to 5.0.1 some of my apps dont work.

    i upgraded my ipad 2 to 5.0.1 and garageband nad some other apps dont work anymore.i deleted garageband but cant download it from itunes again becouse it says buy.how can i restore the backup?

    If all of your third party apps are crashing - Try downloading another app - any free app is fine and will work - see if that resets the other apps.
    If that's not what is happening try a reset - 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.

  • After updating to 8.3 so many apps dont work properly. Any body else got this?

    After updating to 8.3 so many apps dont work properly. Any body else got this?

    This is truthfully a WAG but here are some standard repair procedures:
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, read this.

  • Can I transfer music from my ipod to my itunes app on a new mac laptop?

    Can I transfer music from my ipod to my itunes app on a new mac laptop?

    Yeah! Click on your iPod when it shows up under "Devices" on the left side of iTunes while plugged in. Click on the music tab at the top and select "Manually Manage songs and playlists". Then click the arrow next to you iPod on under "Devices" and it will drop down "Music" "Videos" etc under it. Go to "Music" and select all your songs and drag them to the iTunes "Music" tab. They should copy over. Then you can go back and enable autosync.

    Looking for an app that works with Mac and iPhone that will set calendar reminders of birthdays in contacts.

    Hi ron1098,
    Try my application Dates to iCal. it runs on the Mac, but you can sync the calendar to your iOS device.
    See more about Dates to iCal here. It is £4 shareware with a 2 week demo.

  • Why can't iTune Apps download to my Mac Mini and MacBookPro?

    Why can't iTune Apps download to my Mac Mini and MacBookPro?

    Because those App's are for iDevices like iPad's and iPhone's.
    For Mac App's, you need to go to the > Mac App Store.

    "Did you install Lion via the official MAS(Mac APP Store) . I'm curious about the OS version and build Number 11A390  in your initial report. That build # seems like a developer build number. That could be the reason the error message says "make sure iTunes works with this version of Mac OS X"."
    "It's not iTunes. If you bought Lion from the MAS, I'm not sure what to do, but if you did not buy Lion from the MAS, you may want to post the same question in the Developer Forum"

  • ITunes no longer works after Mac software update

    I have allowed my Mac to update its software today. Ever since it completed the update, iTunes won't run. It is the latest version (also downloaded today), but a message pops up stating that 'you cannot use iTunes with this version of Mac OS X'... What's up with that?

    Dropping the bandwidth in iChat to 500 kbps and changing the QuickTime Streaming settings to no more than 1.5Mbps... seems to work. So far testing with my company this morning, my iChat video has not frozen up after about a 5 minute test.
    The video quality is not as good as in the past, but at least it is working so far. Hopefully Apple will fix this soon, but THANK YOU for this temporary solution. Work is possible again.

  • The CC Desktop App stopped working today (Mac)

    I'm on a Mac running 10.8.5. I had a notification in my menu bar that there were CC updates, when I clicked on it the app opened for about a second then crashed. No error message. I have no Adobe processes running at all. I spent over an hour online with Adobe support which got me NOWHERE but angry and wanting to go back to CS3 so I don't have to deal with buggy crap.
    Yes I have renamed all the OOBE folders. I have unistalled and reinstalled at least 3 times now. Tossed all the old App Manager folders.
    Anyone know whats going on?

  • Podcast episodes won't download in iTunes app (but works fine on desktop)

    Hi, I can't figure this out:
    Our podcast episodes simply won't download in the iTunes app on iPhone. The download simply stops at 10.3 kB (or sometimes at another value), without really getting started at all.
    This is very odd, since downloads are working fine in iTunes on the desktop, and in other apps on the phone (such as Instacast).
    Here's the iTunes-page for the podcast:
    http://itunes.apple.com/no/podcast/filmfrelst/id303539607?l=nb
    And here's the RSS feed URL:
    http://montages.no/filmfrelst_files/rss.php
    (The podcast is called "Filmfrelst", and is searchable in the iTunes app)
    Any clues?

    OK, seems like I located the problem - sort of.  It's not the feed that's the issue, but rather the fact that I'm pushing my MP3-files through a PHP script which does some statcounting. If I access the MP3 files directly, the iTunes app downloads them OK.
    So I'm guessing maybe my headers aren't exactly what the iTunes app is expencting? Here's a snippet from the PHP file which outputs the MP3 data:
    header('Content-Type: audio/mp3');
    header('Content-Length: 'filesize($location));
    @readfile($location);

  • Keyboard keys dont work in Mac OSx

    The following keys suddenly stop working and then continue working randomly: F1 to F7, but the F keys work (eg to show desktop) and also the right (and only the right) shift key.
    This does not depend on what software I have running and happens very very frequently.
    If I bring up the Keyboard Viewer when the problem exists, the keys also dont get registered on the keyboard viewer.
    This is really annoying and happens in Mac OSx, not in Windows - although volume and brightness keys dont work (all the time) in Windows - less of an issue though.
    Any suggestions??

    I'm having a similar problem. But it is not intermittent, they just don't work.
    What can I do to fix this? If I use my wireless keyboard, it isn't a problem. Just when I use my laptop by itself...

  • View in itunes button dont work

    The view in itunes button doesnt work on my browser it used to then it suddenly stopped, how do i fix?

    Works fine for me.
    Worked fine for me until I started taking screenshots and thought it would good to illustate the "Remember my preference" button. Now it no longer does.
    Uninstalling & reinstalling didn't help either. If I find a reliable way to renable I will let you know what I did.
