I've updated my ipod to version 1.1.3 but for the life of me can't seem to install the new apps? Can someone guide me through the process please? :D

Yeah. I couldn't find it either. Someone responded in my thread and gave me this link which worked: https://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/touchLandingPage

NOTE: You have to sync multiple times following this purchase *and* you can't have manually manage files checked. This will delete all movies and music you have on your iPod. Teh suck.

EDIT: beaten to it

Hey sure.

- Update to 1.1.3 (Free version)
- Update to iTunes 7.6 (apple.com/itunes/download)
- Plug iPod touch in
- Goto the iTunes Music Store
- On the hompage you should see a box with an ad on it for 'January Software Update'
- Click it
- Click 'Purchase Software' or 'Buy'
- The applications will be downloaded to your account
- Simply select your iPod from the left pane in iTunes (under devices)
- and click 'Sync' on the summary tab in iTunes

Hope this helps. Oh - and only click the buy button once .. even if the download fails, your charged everytime you press it (common sense really - but I was charged 3 times - now being refunded by iTunes, kindly)

Hi! to a fellow Aussie :D

I'm just doing the update right now too... can't wait to finally have mail on the touch!

EDIT: Cool, just did it then... now there's a whole bunch of new toys to play with :)

there is a thread that explains how several of us were able to install them (finally)! I'll bump it up but its called

"Purchased apps... where are they"
