If you are buying applications in legit ways inside your iTunes software, do the following to synchronize them onto your iPod Touch (and vice versa if you are downloading apps on your iPod Touch first) -

Your computer is not yet authorized to do this operation. In order to authorize the computer, download, install, and open iTunes on the computer (Mac or Windows). Then click on the "Store" menu on the top of the screen. In the drop down list, you will see Authorize option. In order for you to authorize, make sure you have an iTunes account first. But since you have been downloading apps, I believe you already do. Just enter your username and password here and you're good to go.
