    Have you jaibroken Ipod touch? if yes then some apps might not be compatible with some jailbroken apps such as Bigboss pref etc, delete that and try again.
    let us know

    Have you tried installing a new app, or removing and reinstalling one? Those often help when this happens.

    went through help advice on apple website,

    think it was delete and re-downloading apps that sorted it
