If You Buy an App on iTunes How Do You Get It on Your iTouch?
If you've downloaded an app for your iPod touch, sync it to your device or manually transfer it through the iTunes interface. Any digital media you buy on iTunes shows up in your library and in the "Devices" section under your particular device. The iTunes software is designed to be simple to learn and use, but if you haven't explored the various features you're probably still unfamiliar with the software. Once you have your iTunes apps on your iPod touch you can begin to integrate them in your daily life.
