New laptop, old iPod Touch, how do I get apps onto iTunes?

Hi. I have recently bought a new laptop, and want to sync my apps in iTunes to my 9 month Touch, but when I select Sync, iTunes tells me; "+All existing applications and their data on the iPod <my ipod> will be replaced with applications from this iTunes library+".
As this is a new iTunes install, won't it completely wipe all my apps? Short of hunting down all my apps in iTunes and re-purchasing them, how do I get to a point where I can sync apps?

Don't sync your iPod until you have your purchases back onto the computer and your restored your library or you will lose the contents from it. iTunes will let you copy your iTunes Store purchases directly from an iPod to the computer, you'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer
Purchased applications can also be downloaded over again, see this article for details: How to redownload purchased applications from the App Store

1st gen iPod touch, how do i get apps?

i have a 1st generation ipod touch, the newest software it saysi can ave(when i checkfor updates there isn't any) but yet i still can't get apps. what should i do?

just a hunch: most apps require @ least iOS 2.x to run. depending on which version of iOS you have on your Touch, you might need to upgrade to iOS 3.1. see [_*Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)*_|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2052].

I have an old Ipod 5th gen that I have been using for downloading music from my library. Upon purchasing an Ipod touch and registering it in Itunes, I can no longer sync tunes to my old ipod. How can I get that option back on my old ipod?

My current hard drive is filled up and i'm going to buy a new, bigger hard drive. How can i change the save and backup destination for iTunes so i can backup and transfer my purchases(apps) onto the new hard drive? Without having to backup and save my apps onto the current hard drive because there's no space left on it. Thanks!

You should have transferred them to your computer regularly and included them in your backup copy of your computer.
You buy one and only one download. It is your responsibility to move/copy/backup your music.
If for some reason you have failed to backup your music, then you can try contacting itunes support and asking for an exception, but they are under no obligation to allow.

HT4972 Both my iPod and computer (mac) say that iOS 6.1.5 is the latest software available. I have a 4th generation iPod touch, how do I get it to update to iOS 7?

. As Apple said in June, iOS 7 is not compatible with the 4G iPod.
All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory (RAM). The 4G iPod only has 256 MB

I am using new laptop with ipod touch and have downloaded i.tunes. in the past i.tunes showed all the tracks on my old i.pod. I can't seem to find the i.touch library to change or delete music. What am I not doing?

I am using a new laptop, windows 7, with ipod touch, hoping to listen to, whilst on line, edit and add music to my ipod library. I have downloaded i.tunes but it does not show my library. I know I have repeats to delete too but cant see anything, It does recognise that there is a body of music with the indication bar at the bottom., but does not list anything. Help

I attempted to back up my old iPod, but in File - Library - back up to disk, it's asking for 15 disks! I can't just back up to the PC/ext HDD that I can see.
That backing up your iTunes library, not your iPod. You can backup up your library by:
iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive
First you have to get Itunes to see the iPod. See the following. Notupdating your iPod iOS has nothing to do with it.
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Mac OS X
You can transfer iTune spurchases from the iPod to the computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
You can also redownload iTunes purchases by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer.
For other music yo will need a thrid-party progtam like one of those discussed here:

New macbook, old ipod touch.... cannot access music!!

I recently bought the macbook pro for college. I have an iPod touch, which is basically attached to me at all times. I am trying to open up my library on this computer but it continually says that this ipod is synced with another computer and I cannot access my music, add, or delete anything. How do I sync this ipod with my new computer, and/or UNsync the other computer (family computer which I will not have access to come august)
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

The ipod touch will sync with ONE computer at a time. If you sync to another, it will erase the content from the ipod first, then replace with content from the new computer. This is the way it is designed.
You should move all of your info/music/pics/etc from the old computer to the new one first, then sync.
