IPhone 4 upgraded from iPhone 3GS but Apps did not synch after restore...

I have had every iPhone since the very first one - call me crazy... and each time a new one has come out, all I have needed to do is take it home, restore from last back up and voila - all good. This time, no so good - I took the new iPhone 4 home, plugged it in, restored from backup, then selected to synch my iPhone. Now, admittedly, I have 21.4 GB of music, about 4800 songs (which is why I bought the 32Gb phone, again) and it takes quite a while to restore and synch the phone. When the initial synch was complete, iTunes had only copied my music, movies, pics, etc, everything EXCEPT my APPS! So I spent about an hour organizing all my apps into folders and moving them around, then I synched it and all was good 4 days ago. Last night I went to synch my phone and received several errors stating that the phone could not synch and that some files were missing, so I restored from backup, again, and resynched, again, and this time, like last, all my apps were not installed, but only some of the folders were... Am I doing something wrong or is there a trick to get this to work... or maybe some of the apps I have need to be trashed?
Thanks in Advance,

I need to ask, just in case, but are you certain you have enough room for the apps? It seems like you do, but you might have synced some videos or movies that prevent the apps from syncing.
You might have some corrupted Apps too. Don't synch any apps you don't need, and then try again. You're going to have to take some time to sort through it all.

  • I typed a text message from my iphone 4 to my wifes iphone 4 but she did not receive it. What to do?

    I typed a text message from my iphone 4 to my wife's iphone 4 but she did not receive it. The iphone user guide does not explain text messaging. Help.

    Even if he did hear the sound, there is no guarantee that the other end will receive it.  There have been times in the past when my wife has sent me text messages that I never received.  Heck,  before we were married, I sent her a letter via US Snail that she never received.  There is no guarantee of delivery for text messages or email, although email does tend to be more consistent that text messages (and cheaper too).

  • I just purchase an IPhone5C to upgrade from my IPhone4, but I do not know how to get all of my photos that were on ICloud on my Photo Stream (875 photos), on to my new phone. I thought that since my 5C can see Icloud that all photos would be there...

    I just purchase an IPhone5C to upgrade from my IPhone4, but I do not know how to get all of my photos that were on ICloud on my Photo Stream (875 photos), on to my new phone. I thought that since my 5C can see Icloud that all photos would be there... Can someone help me get the pics from my Iphone4 to the 5C?

    Photostream in the cloud only keeps photos from the last 30 days (subject to a 1,000 photo limit). When photostream syncs the photos to your device they will stay there (subject to a 1,000 photo limit) until deleted, which means you may well have more photos in your photostream album on your device than there are in photostream in the cloud.
    The consequence of this is that if you turn photostream off and on again on your device (or enable it for the first time), it will only be populated with photos from the last 30 days, which may not be all the photos that were previously in the photostream album on that device.

  • HT2404 Charged but app did not download on iphone or itunes store

    I recently tried to download/purchase 'whatapp' from my iphone (3gs).  It asked for my password for itunes like it normally does but then as it was trying to download it I received an error msg.  I tried to download it again and the same msg.  Didn't think anything of it except for looking at my bank acct today, I got charged....Grrrrr.    So I opened itunes, go into app store and it says "You do not have any purchased apps available to download." 
    I clicked the link from the email telling me I was charged to "report a problem", it takes me to itunes asks for my password to report and then it's an endless loop... same question.
    How do I get this app on my phone or a refund please?
    Thanks

  • Iphone 3GS keep loading in apple logo after restore to 4.3.5

    Hi all,
    I have an problem in my iphone 3GS. It couldn't boot up to lockscreen and always stuck in apple logo but it able to sync to the itunes. I try many times in restoring to latest firmware 4.3.5 in DFU and recovery mode and also uses different PC, the problem still not resolved. Anyone can advise?

    I would try forcing into recovery mode and then restoring again to see if this helps. If not then it would need to be serviced by repair or replacing the device which will not be covered under the warranty due to the liquid.

  • I have recently bought an iPhone 5c but they did not unlock their iCloud, help please?

    I just bought a IPhone 5c, but it is icloud locked, is there any way i can unlock it?

    There is no way you can unlock it without the cooperation of the previous owner. Chances are you bought a stolen phone. Return it for a refund.

  • Upgrade from CS4 to CS5.5. did not go smoothly, now stuck at CS5 - how do I fix the installation?

    Hi There,
    I had a lot of issues upgrading from CS4 (Adobe Application Manager crashing, installer not opnening etc) but managed to get the installer to run by using the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool to remove all traces of CS4.
    However, when the installer finished, it stated there were errors and now the installers won't run - nor can I run updates from the CS apps that did install.
    I've normally never had any issues upgrading, so am not sure why I had so many issues and the best way forward from here - Hoping I don't have to remove all the CS5 apps, use the Adobe Creative Suite Cleaner Tool again and start from the begining.
    I'm trying to install Master Collection CS5.5 on Mac OS 10.7.2
    Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
    Cheers
    Ben

    Have had to hang up as I was calling the US using a New Zealand Mobile while in Portugal (long story) - and the 11 minute wait time would've cost the same amount as the CS5.5 upgrade!
    I had to call the US because:
    The New Zealand support number listed on the Adobe site doesn't work
    New Zealand is not listed as a country Adobe suppoprt will call back from the "Schedule a callback" page
    What a joke.
    I used the Adobe Support Adviser app to analyze the install error log and it provided me with a very helpful link to a support page that states "You can ignore this error and launch the products you were installing."
    Unfortunately, nothing was installed.
    I need to do work while a long way from home and can't use/install any CS5 apps - does anyone know how to install CS5 in Lion?
    Cheers

  • HT1657 Downloaded 5 movies on old IPad.  Upgraded to IPad 4 , but movies did not migrate.

    Upgraded from IPad 1 to IPad 4.  Had multiple merge problems which were fixed except for videos.  Had five videos in old IPad which didn't merge.  Had to purchase them again. (Billing problem).  Only three of the videos migrated to the Ipad4, and I get an error message(movie cannot load) when I try to watch them.
    PLEASE HELP!

  • Upgraded from PE9 to PE12: ratings did not transfer on organizer

    Upgraded from PE9 to PE12 and the ratings and tags did not transfer to the organizer - or maybe they are there, but I do not know how find.
    I also upgraded from Vista to Microsoft 7. Do I need to uninstall the Vista version and reinstall,  or is there a different solution?

    Topteke a écrit:
    Upgraded from PE9 to PE12 and the ratings and tags did not transfer to the organizer -
    When you installed PSE12 and opened the organizer, you should have been asked to convert your catalog. That would have created a new catalog with the contents of your old catalog; that old catalog being still available to PSE9. If, instead of letting the conversion automatically take place, you have simply imported your pictures into the new empty PSE12, the tags and captions are not recovered (unless you specifically 'wrote metadata to files' in the PSE9 organizer).
    Now, use the menu file/catalog (Ctrl Maj C) and click on the  'convert' button. Check the option to show already converted catalogs. You should see your PSE9 catalog and start the conversion.

  • I tried to print file from my ipad, but it did not work and i wonder why?

    Hello, I just purchased Photosmart Prem C310, set it up and have no problem to printed from my IPad, but today I tried to print some files and nothings work, no error messages either. Can you please help? Thanks, Siuway

    Hi Siuway,
    I'm sorry you're having this issue but I have some steps that might help.
    1.  Unplug your network's router, then the printer, and turn off the iPad (in that order).
    2.  After  about 60 seconds, plug in your router and when everything is ready (steady lights on the front), plug in the printer and turn on the iPad.
    3.  Try printing the same documents again.
    Please let me know if this works or not.  If it doesn't, I have some more steps we can try.
    If I have solved your issue, please feel free to provide kudos and make sure you mark this thread as solution provided!
