ITunes U not compatible with iPod touch 4th and 5th generation.

I attempted to subscribe to the course, Moons An Introduction. When opening one of the course books, I get an error message stating I need an iPad to read the book. There is nothing about the course being incompatible with iPod touch. Why can't incompatibility information be included in the course description?  What a waste of my time. Please don't advise me to open the book on my computer. I don't want to read a book on my computer. That's why I got an iPod. I'm thinking about getting an iPad, but as soon as I purchase one, it will be outdated. Isn't this a ploy by apple to get people to buy iPads?  How many iTunes U courses are like this?  The most important book of the course is incompatible.
Thanks,
Brenda Woollard

Thank you, lllaass.  Of course, an apple user remarks to this fact in their review. Are all courses going to have reviews attached? Why do I have to read reviews on courses to get this information?  Who is writing the review?  It's not an apple official. How reliable is information in reviews?  I've read reviews that have incorrect information. Why not put the fact that a course is incompatible with iPod right in the course description. It would save a lot of time and wasted bandwidth. Why was the book allowed to be downloaded onto an unsupported device?

  • ITunes not compatible with iPod Touch 4th gen (problem with Windows 64 bit)

    So I've been trying for about a month or so to sync my iPod Touch to iTunes but ever since i updated it to iTunes 11 it has been saying that i need to uninstall it and install the 64 bit version. I've done that twice this week alone and its still not working, saying again that i need the 64 bit which I already have. I've ended up completely erasing previous iTunes data to see if that would help, but that just ended up being more hassle. I don't think its just my iPod, because it refuses to sync my iPad 2 manually as well.
    Please help me, i'm at my wits end.

    You are very perceptive - has nothing to do with your ipod, has to do with your Windows. You can try couple things.
    One - reinstall itunes "apple way" and when downloading disable your anitvirus.

    please make sure that you completed not only step one, but also step two.
    Then disable your antivirus and go to step three.

    if that does not work go to thing number two.
    Two - come back here with precise text of the message, see if anybody had it before.

  • Enabling Warning for Application that is not compatible with Ipod Touch

    Sorry if this has been asked before. Searching for prior posts about it, I ended up with pages of Compatibility Mode Posts.
    Not thinking, when iTunes asked me if I wanted to disable the warning when an application was not compatible with my Ipod Touch, I said Yes. Searching through all the settings,Preferences and properties (or even in Regedit), I see no way to re-enable this option. Kinda nice to have the warning so I know it did not install, and would like to get it back. About the only thing I saw remotely close was the option to "Reset all dialog warnings" in the preferences menu, and it didn't work.
    Any thoughts???

    Rebuilding your iTunes preferences files might get that back for you, Pa.
    The technique you need for that is described in the "Remove iTunes Preference files" section of the "User-specific troubleshooting" section of the following document:
    [iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1717]
    Before starting out on that, set the PC up to view hidden files and folders, as per the description at the beginning of the "User-specific troubleshooting" section.
    *Some heads-ups before proceeding*
    Be careful of any custom preferences (EQ, imports, etc) you have set up. Take a note of those, because rebuilding the relevant prefs returns all such prefs to their default settings. You may need to set up any such preferences all over again.
    You may also need to reinstall any third-party plugins afterwards.
    Things to expect during the pref file rebuild ... moving one set to the desktop (on XP) causes the setup assistant to run during the rebuild. Avoid saying yes if it asks you to import all the media files on your PC into iTunes. Otherwise, you'll end up duplicating all your content in your iTunes library. Moving the other set of prefs to the desktop (on XP) means that you have to agree to the licence agreement again.
