Unable to sync certain apps on ipod touch (4th gen)

Hi, I have recently been having problems syncing my ipod touch (4th gen) after upgrading to the latest itunes and iOS. Music seems to go on fine, however certain apps will not install. Some will go on eventually if I keep on trying, however modern combat 3 which I recently bought, will not install at all. I've tried several fixes now, turning off genius, my antivirus and firewall, even restoring my ipod. I also have Windows 8 if that makes a difference. I hoped iTunes 11 would fix the problems but unfortunetely it hasn't. I used to get error messages saying that an internal error has occurred, however on iTunes 11 nothing comes up, and the sync keeps looping without completing, unless i untick the box to not install modern combat. Is there anything I might have missed?
Thanks

Try deleting the app and redownloainf it and then try syncing.
Then try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

You can only sync with one computer. I would backup to one computer and then restore from backup.

Can't sync app to ipod touch 4th gen

I purchased the Home Run Battle 2 app for my ipad, ipod touch and iphone. The app will sync to all devices except to the ipod touch (4th gen). I tried this using my iMac through iTunes. Then, I also tried to get it from the ipod touch by searching for it in the app store and installing, but when I touch the OPEN button, nothing happens. I also tried dragging the app to the device while in iTunes and it won't take. Any suggestions?

So if you go into the app store, on your ipod, and go to the app's page, does it gives you the option to "open" or ? You kind of lost me with "go to the app store to get it". I thought you had gone there before and it said open?
If you go into settings >> general >> usage, is the app listed there? If it is, click the app, then click delete app. Then go back into the app store on the ipod and try to redownload it from the app store.
You could also try to search for the app on your ipod, if you can't find the icon, by swiping all the way to the left.
Also, how many pages do you have on your ipod? I think it maxes out at 11.

Unavailable apps for iPod touch 4th gen

Hello,
I've got a problem with my iPod touch 4th generation. I paid for it almost 500$ and now I can't install anything because apps are available only for iOS 7.
Thanks for your help.
P.S.:
Version of software: iOS 6.1.6
Model No.: A1367
Storage: 32GB

Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists.

Won't sign with apple id to updates apps via ipod touch 4th gen

When click on update tab in app store it says
"you are not signed in. To view purchases, you must sign in with your apple id"
Cancel. Sign in
Then comes up with sign in place. After entering password, it returns to same message.
This is a brand new ipod. It is Replacement of one with broken screen. But the serial # is the same.
Uploaded info from previous ipod to this one using same itunes id and password on comp.
Any suggestions?

I doubt the SN is the same since they are unique to the hardware but that should not have any effect.
Have you tried going to Settings>Store and sign out of the exisiting accont and then sign back in.
Also try resetting the iPod, noting will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

My iPod Touch 4th Gen Camera's screen turns black and nothing is visible, but on FaceTime, camera does work.Help?

When I open up the camera app on iPod Touch 4th Gen, the screen stays black and you are not able to take a picture/video. On the other hand when i'm FaceTiming someone, the front and back camera works fine. I went to the genius bar at the apple store and they restored my iPod and the camera was still not working but FaceTime still is working fine. Does anyone have any suggestions on why this might be happening or how I could get my iPod working like normal?

IPod Touch 4th gen unable to install apps

Not sure where to start really. OK basically my iPod touch 4th gen is unable to download apps from the app store or any content from the iTunes app, the only way I can get new content on to my device is to sync it with iTunes on my mac (which isn't convenient for me)
after about 3 weeks of running my iPod without any problems, it starts out of nowhere and it doesn't matter what firmware I am running (it has happened on 4.1 and 4.2.1) the only way to fix it is a full DFU restore even more annoying than not being able to install apps without my mac.
Here is the message I get: http://i.min.us/ijfOIK.PNG
Anyone know what is up with my iPod? I have an old Touch 2G as well and its never done this to me.
Note: i am not jailbroken, but i have a few friends and family members that are jailbroken and have never had this problem.
if anyone knows anything i would appreciate it as i am now on my 13th DFU restore thanks to this problem

I can't sync my music into my Ipod touch 4th Gen... as you can see, the sync button is completely inaccessible.

Hi dazeio,
You might want to try dragging and dropping the music onto the iPod. For this demonstration, I am using my iPhone.
Click and hold onto the album. Then, a side panel will pop up on the left. (as shown in the picture)
Move the album over the iPod and let go.
Hope this helps!

Ipod touch 4th gen won't sync or download podcasts

Hi, all! I get that the ipod touch 4th gen won't update to ios7, but this has made podcasts unusable I'm unable to download new podcasts or sync them to my computer because I'm told the podcast app isn't updated. Is there anything I can do or do I basically have an unusable ipod where podcasts are concerned?

Why happens when you install the last compatible version of the podcast app and sync?

I just purchased this movie on Thursday, May 15, so just a few days ago. I have never had any trouble whatsoever since I have been in Vietnam. I have downloaded several movies and even music and they have all synced to my respected Apple products except for this purchase.
Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean by studios and different versions. Could you please explain?
I checked my purchased list in my purchase history under my account and there are no hidden items.

My ipod touch (4th gen) won't sync with itunes, OSX

My 8gb ipod touch (4th gen) won't sync with itunes. Running itunes 11.4 on OSX 10.6.8
My touch was running fine until one day I found about 3gb occupied by 'other' space. I ended up restoring my ipod which took care of the problem, but created a new one in that the ipod will no longer sync anything from my itunes library. I have music set up to sync selected artists, and when I click the checkboxes to select my albums and artists to sync, the 'audio' bar fills up.
When I click 'apply', the 'starting sync' and progress bar pop up for like half a second then disappear. Same goes with photos, apps, podcasts, etc.

Verify that you have the right boxes checked to sync?
iTunes: Syncing media content to iOS devices and iPod
Try syncing using the manual method
Managing content manually on iPhone, iPad, and iPod
Last, backup to iTunes and restore from backup, yes again

Ipod Touch 4th Gen - itunes only pretends to sync

i have an ipod touch 4th gen 32gb (fw 4.1) that won't sync with my pc. the initial sync worked fine as all the songs and apps were transfered to the touch. now that i wanted to put some new tunes, vids and apps on it, but itunes doesn't do anything. whenever i press sync, everything looks just fine. the little window says: sync step 1, bla bla and finishes syncing without adding or deleting new/old content. i tried every option possible i could think of. i even 'downgraded' my itunes from 10.1.1 to 9.2.something.
i found out that by clicking the little arrow next to my ipod, i was able to drag and drop my music, playlists and vids there, but what about my apps?
the next day i tried adding new music by doing that, my whole music and video library was gone and the content of the touch won't show up in itunes anymore (when i click the arrow). and since itunes wouldn't sync my touch, i now got an ipod without any music.
english isn't my native language, my apologies if i got some stuff wrong
thank you guys in advance
btw: is the equalizer issue of ios 4 solved with 4.2.1?
