Syncing Apps on iTouch w/ 3.0 OS

I need to know if selecting iTunes to Sync Applications to my iPod Touch will erase the data. I just installed 3.0 and backed up my iPod, so all I need to know is if I were to select 'Sync Applications' under my iPod, would my app data (like game saves and settings be erased?

I've no idea, someone in the iTouch forums might. I have an iPod, not an iTouch.
The game stats are OK with new iTunes upgrades....but iTouch is a LOT different than a click wheel iPod.
My suggestion is to try it with ONE game/app and see what happens.
And post back here with results so to help other folks ; )

Cant sync apps onto Itouch, symbols are grey

When I downloaded apps from Itunes, I couldnt sync the apps into my itouch, the symbols are grey. Why and what can I do about it? ( I recently upraded my Itouch to IOS 5.0.1,and I cant sync apps since then.)
the picture is somewhat vague,the black parts are the apps that I can use, the greys ones I cant use them, I cant find them on my Itouch either.
Thanks for your help.

- Do you have restrictions set that preven syncing the apps? (Settings>General>Restrictions)
- Is the computer authorized for the account that purchased the app?
- Is this the computer you last synced with?

Synced Apps from iTouch to PC - Apps gone from iTouch

I just purchased an iTouch for my wife and set up some basic apps for her before giving it to her. In iTunes, I synced the apps I purchased with my PC and the apps then disappeared from the iTouch. How do I get these apps back on the iTouch? I see them in the PC on the iTunes page...but see no way to get them back to iTouch.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Were all the apps purchased from the same iTunes account? From your description it sounds like different iTunes accounts are used. Have you tried authorizing the computer for the accounts?

Syncing apps for itouch 2007 edition

I bought an app for my itouch (2007) and I don't even know how to view it in itunes. I know the transaction occurred because I checked my banking info. but if it weren't for that proof I would never know I even purchased the thing let alone be able to use it. HELP. How do i get it to my itouch?

Welcome to the discussions,
did you check if you meet the iphone OS requirements (>2.0) for using apps on the ipod?
Is your iTunes updated as well?

Unable to sync all apps into itouch

I just brought newest itouch online two weeks ago, and everytime when I try to sync my itouch, the apps cannot be transfered into my itouch. I really have no idea about this.

"the apps cannot be transfered into my itouch"
Do you get an error message?
What does it say?
Are the apps compatible with ipod touch?
You went to the apps tab, checked sync apps, then checked the apps you want to sync, then synced?

Had iPad apps on iTouch and they ran fine. synced several times

I have a new iPod iTouch. I have downloaded several iPad apps on iTouch and they ran fine. I synced several times with not a problem. Now the iPad apps have disappeared off my iPod ITouch. I have not deleted them and the iPad apps remain in my library. Not sure why they have disappeared and I can't get them to download back to iTouch. I have deleted the iPad apps from my library and re-downloaded but they won't sync. I had a previous iOS and updated to iOS6.1.3 version.

Hi I lost my stuff from iTunes after I synced with my iTouch

Hi, I don't know if anyone else may have experienced this problem but I lost all my content from iTunes after I synced with my iTouch, but I had a message saying that my iTouch was authorized from a different user but I authorized it on my account but when it synced, I had lost all my music, videos, and apps that I had in my iTunes library. I have all my stuff in my iTouch. All of my content are still in the iTunes folder, but I see the XML document of the iTunes Library (where all my information is), and 7 Temp. Files in the iTunes folder as well. Is there a way to get all of my content back in place?
Thanks,
Jose

Syncing an iDevice with a computer does not cause the content on the computer to disappear.
Was there actually content in the iTunes library prior to syncing?
Are the files still on the computer?
In the iTunes folder, are there multiple iTunesLibrary.itl files, like an old copy(ies)?

Can i move my apps from itouch to iphone 4S and keep the saved stuff ive done so far

can i move my apps from itouch to iphone 4S and keep the saved stuff ive done so far

If the developers of the apps have followed Apple's guidelines, the data should be in the backup made in iTunes, so you should be able to just restore the iPhone 4S from the most recent backup of the iPod touch, re-sync your apps, and you should be good to go. If any of the data is critical, though, you may want to confirm with the developer of the app, just in case they have some special procedure.
Regards.

How to transfer Apps from iTouch 4 or Win 7 PC to Mac?

HI All. I have yet to grab Lion & still have all my apps on my Win 7 laptop. Via iCloud I have DL'd all my apps onto my Mac.

I do not have an external drive so I am & have so far done all of this via PC to Router To Mac.

I can't sync apps onto my ipod touch? Help??

I use a Mac.
So here's what will happen: I'll log into my account on Itunes, and then I'll connect my ipod touch (2nd generation) to it. I'll then click on Ipod (on the left hand window) and I'll select apps. I've purchased a couple of them, but whenever I click apply to sync, it won't. I don't need to authorize it or anything, it just won't sync to my itouch. Help?
