Loading games to iPod/iTunes

burn- to answer your question plain and simple-no. you must sync it to your computer to get the game on your ipod. now, a few things you can do though:

1.have your friend deauthorize zuma and give it to you.
2.deauthorize vortex and give it to your friend. then sync your ipos with your friend's computer.

(to anyone out there, if i am wrong, or if there is another way, please do correct me).

i recently purchased Zuma and I downloaded with no problem, but when i was trying to put it in my ipod i couldn't do it. i have the latest versions of itunes and i tried to sync but it didnt work, i tried to drag it to my ipod and it also didn't work. now since i checked it the next day, it doesn't appear on my library anymore, or anywhere else just on my ipod window when i connect my ipod to the computer, where it has the game. PLEASE HELP!

Windows XP

on the top of itunes, theres a tab that says "Edit". then click on preference. on the "General" tab, you should see all these boxes under "show". check the "ipod games" box. then you should see your game in the game tab.

My pre-teen son wanted games on his ipod nano. He spent his money to buy 3 games from the itunes store and could not get them to sync. We were not made aware during that purchase that games would NOT play on the nano. Does anyone know whether or not my son get a credit for the $15.00 he spent on games at the itunes store (that are now useless) and instead spend his money on music?

I just bought and downloaded Mahjong ... shows up in the library fine. Synced the iPod to this computer; everything else synced just fine. No error messages or anything like that, but have no game folder on my iPod and no game, either. Have the games checked on iTunes and everything else I'm supposed to do. What IS the deal here????

Hi.

I just bought iQuiz for my 5th generation ipod. Both my ipod and itunes software is up to date. iQuiz downloaded and shows up under the game tab when my ipod is connected to my computer. However, when I attempt to play iQuiz it shows the title screen, then it shows an error message that says: This game cannot be played. COnnect your ipod to iTunes and reinstall the game.

The game does not show up on the sidebar in my Library. How can I reinstall the game? Thanks.

okay, iPod nano_1GB or silver- (or anyone else)... here's a similar problem:
60 GB iPod Video, software 1.2.1, up-to-date iTunes, just bought Sudoku off of iTunes store. Under Library (left menu) on iTunes "iPod Games" shows up. When I click that, the Sudoku description and instructions come up w/ a drag-and-drop picture of the game. Tried moving it to iPod, but the circle-and-slash icon appears. Under iPod, in the Games tab, Sync Games+All Games are both selected. The first time I tried sync-ing, the "does not have authority to play on this computer" warning appeared. However, I have tried sync-ing again and again, and the warning has not appeared since the first time. Now when I sync, the process seems to work, but the disconnected iPod (under Extras and Games) does not show the name of the game. What do I do? You're the genius!

I also read somewhere in here that I might have to Restore Original Settings? That's not gonna happen. I have too many songs I'm going to lose. If that's really all I can do, I'm going to be verrrry mad. Please don't tell me that.

You rule. I am so stupid not to think of that. I honestly forgot about the games tab. Thanks a lot.

No problem, that's just what us Discussion-eers are here for.

You're welcome, glad I could help you here!
