  • Why can I not download apps onto my Macbook. The only apps that come up are ipad

    Why can I not download apps onto my Macbook. The only apps that come up are ipad & iphone apps.

    If you are searching within iTunes, all the Apps are for iDevices. To find Apps for the MacBook, you will need to search using the Mac App Store.

  • Can't download apps onto my iPod touch?

    When I try to download apps onto my iPod touch, it gives me a message that says I need to verify the account and billing information, which I have done, but it still won't let me get anything, it says I need to log into my account then sends me back into the app store to log in, but after I type it in and go to log in, it is stuck at a grey loading screen and asks me to log in again, non-stop. Is there any fix for this?

    - Try resetting your iPod,. A long shot but you loose nothing.
    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.
    - Contact iTunes:
    Apple - Support - iTunes

  • Why can't I download apps onto my iPad?

    I have tried to download apps onto my iPad but it won't allow my to enter my password so I cannot download any apps can anybody help?

    Hi Littlexjess,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  I would try restarting and resetting your iPad as a good initial troubleshooting step:
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

    If this does not help, please reply with any additional information such as exact error messages or strange behavior you see.

  • Why can't I download apps onto my iphone when i have enough memory and my apple password is correct.

    I have sucessfully downloaded apps on my iphone many times in the past. Now, when I select and try to install an app it begins to download, I put in my password and then everything reverts back to the start. I have lots of memory and even free apps won.t download. I've looked and read all the support manuals online and nothing helps.
    Has anyone had this problem before and knows how to help. I would appreciate any advice.

    You will have to call Apple and ask for Account Security.

  • Why can't i download apps on my ipod?

    I can't download apps anymore on my ipod. I dont know why. can you please help!!!!

    Try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.
    There's more to try but let's go a bit at a time.

  • Why can't I update apps on my iPod touch 4G ios 6.1.6?

    Every time I try to update an app a window pops up telling me unable to download. I can't download a new app either.

    Look at the Requirements section for the app to determine if the update requires iOS 7 or later?

  • Why can't I download updates for my ipod touch 4G?

    I have a pretty old windows XP. I'm not sure what year exactly, but we've had it a long long time. We have it on a wifi connection, with our router in the basement, but internet connection never seems to be an issue so it's not that my internet is quiting. What's happening when I try to download, is that it says it's going to take two hours to download, and the speed it goes at will take at least to hours for a fairly small download. Then, after a certain amount of time, which is always different, it stops downloading, and a window pops up saying that my network connection has timed out, and to check network and connection settings. It says on the download bar, (err = .3259)
    I haven't tried playing around with firewall or anything, but I haven't been able to download the updates for 4.3.2 or 4.3.3, and those are the only ones that have been available to me, since I just got my first ipod not to long ago.
    If it helps, I have the most recent Norton antivirus and AVG Free

    that didn't work. i had both shut antivirus softwheres off and the firewall turned off and i still got "there was a problem downloading the softwear for the ipod "my ipod". the network connection timed out. make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later."what now?

  • Why can't I get apps on my iPod touch

    Need help

    Need more information.
    What have you tried doing so far?
    Are the Apps in your iTunes Library?
    Have you Synced your ipod with your iTunes library?
    Is this all Apps, or just some of them?
    Are the Apps compatible with your iPod? (Is your iOS version at least as high as the iOS needed for the App?)
    Is your iTunes/iPod set to Sync the Apps? (With the iPod connected to iTunes, look on the Device/Apps and check the Sync options.)
    If the answer to any of the questions is "no", or you don't understand a question, please tell us which one(s).

  • Why can't i drag music onto my ipod touch?

    When I try to drag an album by its cover, I get the "red star" icon instead of the green plus. When I try to drag a single item from the table view, I get no icon at all.
    All music has been ripped by me, on this mac, from CD. No DRM anywhere. The Touch was just factory restored from this iTunes. The computer is authorized, but I don't think that's relevant.
    Pre-restore, everything worked fine. Applications move back and forth no problem.

    Click on your iPod under the devices tab. When on the settings tab, make sure "manually manage music and videos" is ticked.
    Right now, iTunes is set to automatically sync music. Speaking of which, go to the music tab and uncheck "sync music".

    Why can't I download apps I have to pay for on to my new iPad Mini. I have had an Apple id for my iPhone for years and have downloaded app to it, no problems. When I try to download apps to my new iPad Mini, it tells me my billing info has to be confirmed. After confirming with same info that is already there it tells me to contact support, no help up to this point.

    Could the credit card be expired?
    Beyond that, what you need to do is contact iTunes support, they can tell you exactly what is wrong, none of us here can do that.
    In the lower right corner of this page is a 'contact us' link. Click on that and you'll see a page full of info and links, one of which is iTunes support.

    Why can't I download books onto my phone but I can onto my computer I'm using overdrive for my phone. Please help thanks

    By 'not accept' you mean ... ? Are you getting any error messages ?
    For a credit card to have a chance of being accepted it needs to be registered to exactly the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and have been issued by a bank in the country where you and your iTunes account are based.
