I have an ipod touch 2nd generation..jailbroken...and my kids have ipod touch 4th generations ..not jailbroken...my problem is that any of the games i download such as temple run (free) or jetpack joyride or draw something free..all download fine but crash as soon as i open them..It seems that any of the newer games aren't working for me. Is it cause i'm jailbroken or 2nd generation or just something wrong with my ipod? They work fine on my kids ipods....ANY HELP would be APPRECIATED

Thanks, i did that with temple run and meet the requirements...I'm ios 4.2.1 and for some reason i have to reboot to play most games now that i already have...or boot into safe mode to play them...in safe mode sometimes they still crash.

Some newer apps do have problems running on older devices. Even if it appears to meet the minimum requirements. Jailbreaking can also cause some apps to crash.

sign in and out, and in again off the app store on the device with the apps crashing on launch, should cure the issue
