Please help !!!!!! itunes wont sync apps to my ipod

my apps cannot be determined ...What does that mean????

You need to restore the iPod on the new computer. You can only sync apps (and some other stuff) from different computers/libraries but you can manage music and some other stuff among different computers/libraries.
You need to restore you iPod and see the following regarding the pairing error message.

  • ITunes cannot sync apps to the iPod because the apps installed on the iPod could not be determined error message

    I've been getting the "iTunes cannot sync apps to the iPod because the apps installed on the iPod could not be determined" error message for a while. I have tried restoring my iPod but as soon as I try to sync it again (even with nothing changing in iTunes or on the iPod) I get the same error message. Whenever I want to add music to my iPod I have to delete everything and then wait hours for it to restore which is ridiculous. Anyone have any other suggestions for fixing this problem?
    I'm using a 3rd generation iPod touch with 4.2.1 software and iTunes 10.5.3.3

    The fact that there is so many discussions with no clear answer is the problem.
    I went back and looked through all the different suggestions and and tried them all to make sure I didn't miss anything. What finally worked for me was making sure all apps were updated on the iPod and making sure all apps were updates in iTunes (under the Library>Apps tab NOT under devices) and then syncing.

  • ITunes cannot sync apps to the iPod because the apps installed on the iPod could not be determined

    I have a 3rd generation iPod touch. I just downloaded the IOS 5.0, I seem to have all the features (reader, notification center, newsstand, etc.), but I recently experienced a problem.
    After getting the update and restoring my iPod, iTunes started reinstalling all my music, apps, and videos. It reinstalled all my apps last, and before that, I used iTunes to delete a lot of them and organize them into folders. I then re synced it. Midway through this, I had to leave, but I had heard that I could sync my iPod wirelessly if it was connected to wifi and an outlet, so I checked the little box and tried this. However, I then got the error message "iTunes cannot sync apps to the iPod '______' because the apps installed on the iPod could not be determined". All my songs, videos, and 5,800 photos are on there, but half my apps are fully synced and usable, while the other half shows up with a loading bar at the bottom saying "waiting".
    Yes, I have the "Sync Apps" box ticked.
    Yes, my computer is authorized.
    Yes, I have verified that all the apps are in my iTunes.
    Yes, I tried plugging my iPod back into iTunes and manually syncing it.
    I would simply restore it and resync again, but the majority of my photos aren't on my computer, so if I did that, they would be gone. After I installed the IOS 5.0, and my iPod was restored, it automatically put all my photos back. If someone can tell me whether or not this is something that's automatic whenever you restore your iPod (whether it be manually from iTunes or from an update), that would also be greatly appreciated.
    However, what I'm looking for is simply a way to get my other 80+ apps back in working order without having to restore my iPod or anything too complicated.

    EDIT:
    I tried restarting my iPod... now it just says that the iPod cannot be synced because the required disk cannot be found.
    This update is seriously frustrating. I've heard from a lot of people that the wifi iTunes sync isn't working either.

  • PLEASE HELP Itunes wont open after downloading v6

    COMPAQ Presario R3000   Windows XP  
    Please help, i have just downloaded itunes (v6) and when i try to open it, nothing happens (no error) it is in processes in task manager (as itunes.exe) but it is not actually open. I have spent many hours trying to fix this and still no luck, please someone help,
    Thanks in advance
    Karl

    Well I don't know what "tried everything possible" means!
    top fixes for a new iTunes install/upgrade are
    - turning off security software such as Norton before the install as Apple suggests
    - installing QuickTime standalone, not regular
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone.html
    - setting up Norton to allow iTunes
    - scanning for malware with ewido (Free at www.ewido.net/en/)
    - last but not least, using MSCONFIG to find Windows conflicts

  • Please help, itunes wont synch with my itouch

    after a recent update for my itunes, my itouch would not synch with itunes. i attempted to install and reinstall itunes. then it wont even charge my itouch.
    at this stage, whenever i open itunes, this error message pops up "registry settings used bythe itunes driver for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing . This can happen as a result of installing ther CD burning softwares. Please reinstall Itunes".
    i tried just uninstalling and installing Itunes.
    then i tried uninstalling Itunes and other itunes relating programs (Bonjour, apple software updater, quicktime, etc) the recommended methd on this web site
    but this doesnt change anything.
    then recently i tried, going to my C hardrive and find GearAspiwdm.inf, then right click then install them.
    and also, downloading the Gear drivers installation x86 x64.
    then i nolonger get the error message but my itouch still wont synch....
    i know this is a long question but if u take a minute of your time to read this, i will be very appreciated. thanks a lot really

    I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

  • Itunes wont sync apps to ipod touch

    I bought a second gen iPod touch last Christmas for my son, and loaded it up with the preschool apps from my iPhone with no problem. However, after the initial installation, I have not been able to get any apps to sync from iTunes to the iPod. The apps tab shows the "Sync apps" box checked, but the whole page is grayed out and won't let me select or deselect any apps. Now, it also will not transfer purchases I have made from the iPod back to iTunes. I am running the 3.1.3 version of the iPod software, and all of the apps are iPod and iPhone compatible. All restrictions on the iPod have been disabled. Any suggestions?

    Same problem here. See also
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11335706#11335706.
    My iPod software is up to date, as is the mac OS (leopard), and I bought one new app (having checked its specs) and the app sync page in iTunes is grayed out. I tried deleting a couple of free apps -- a suggestion on another thread for a different problem -- no change. I tried deleting this app and re-downloading it.
    I haven't tried buying an app on the iPod to see if it will transfer to iTunes; have only purchased on computer and attempted to sync. Music is fine.
    Ideas, anyone?
    thanks...

  • ITunes wont sync apps from iPhone

    So, the problem is that iTunes won't sync apps which I downloaded on iPhone. I synced my iPhone before and it all worked well, but now when I go to Apps folder its empty and when I connect my iPhone to computer and sync it, iTunes syncs all exept apps. Whats wrong??

    no1??

  • ITunes wont sync apps

    Everytime I plug my iPhone into my computer, it syncs fine and will update but it won't allow my apps already on my phone to sync to my computer. It always comes up saying "Are you sure you want to delete..". Why is it doing this and what can I do to not lose the apps on my phone?

    Have you always had Sync Apps selected under the Apps tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes before you installed any apps direct with your iPhone?
    If not, this is why you are getting the are you sure you want to delete warning message. If you have a single iTunes account - all apps downloaded with iTunes on your computer and direct with your iPhone were downloaded with the same iTunes account and all apps on your iPhone are not in your iTunes library on your computer, with your iPhone connected and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone. After the apps on your iPhone that are not in your iTunes library have been transferred, make sure these apps are selected under the Apps tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes before the next sync. After doing this and keeping Sync Apps selected under the Apps tab for your iPhone sync preferences, after you download an app with your iPhone the app will be copied to your iTunes library on your computer the first time you sync your iPhone with iTunes after doing so.

  • Itunes wont sync anything to my ipod nor will it authorize my computer!

    I just restored my IPod touch 2 gen and went to sync everything back onto it...but itunes will not sync any of my music nor apps that i have previously bought.  The message said i had to authorize my computer but and error always comes up! (-42408) PLEASE HELP!!!

    Hi bobamilktea,
    May I suggest a clean slate? Try and use Microsoft's Cleanup Utility and then reinstall Quicktime/iTunes:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
    Then download and install itunes from here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Now itunes already comes with quicktime but sometimes quicktime doesn't install correctly so, if you need to, you can install quicktime separately from here: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
    I don't know if this will solve your problem however, I was just addressing the fact that if you uninstalled itunes without the cleanup utility, that the problem is still there despite the uninstall/reinstall. Good Luck!

  • Please help, itunes wont give me option to sync from my iphone

    I have an iphone 4s and I just downloaded itunes on my hp with windows and the new itunes doesnt give me an option to sync my mnusic library onto my computer from my iphone. ive tried restarting it and unplugging it and they dont give me any options!

    iTunes will only transfer music purchased from the iTunes store from your phone to your iTunes library.  To do that, authorize your computer for the Apple ID(s) used to purchase the music in Store>Authorize This Computer, then connect your phone to your computer, open iTunes and go to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases.
    Music from other sources on your phone (such as from ripped CDs) must be extracted from your phone using 3rd party software such as Touch Copy (PC or Mac) or PhoneView (Mac only).
    If your iTunes library is still on your old computer, the best solution is to copy the entire iTunes folder (not just the music folder) from your old computer to your new one, as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527.

  • PLEASE HELP iTUNES WONT RUN!!!

    I have uninstalled and downloaed iTunes numerous times.
    Before it just would not open.
    I thought it might be a virus so i went out and spent another $50 on virus protection program.
    I reinstalled iTunes again, installed service pack 2, and installed new verion of Quicktime.
    I've done everything I can think of.
    now when I try to open iTunes I get a message saying:
    " iTunes requires Windows 2000 or later.
    Please make sure compatibility mode is disabled in the Compatibility tab of the properties for iTunes.exe. "
    I have a Windows XP and installed SP2 which is what the iPod box says is required.
    I am so fed up.
    I worked to save up for the brand new iPod I have been wanting forever now and cant even use it.
    Ive done as much as I can do and ive run out of ideas.
    I dont know how to check the compatibility mode thing its asking me to check.
    PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME OUT HERE?!?!?
    thank you.
