Music and apps lost from iphone, Can I download already purchased music from itunes again?
I recently had a problem and apps on my iphone would not open, so I restored my phone to the factory settings and I lost all of my apps and music because I failed to sync them properly, can I download the songs and apps I already purchased on itunes again? how?
Sorry, but officially Apple does not allow redownloads of purchased items other than iPhone/iPod touch applications. The official statement of their policy can be found here, among other places.
For redownloading apps, look here for instructions. For songs, movies, and videos, if you don't have a backup of your purchased items and don't have them on another iOS device, you may be out of luck and will need to repurchase your content.
If you have your content on an iOS device, post back and someone here can help you get them restored. Otherwise you can try contacting iTunes Store Customer Service (select the "Music Purchases" or "Video Purchases" category, as appropriate, then "Lost or Missing Items". You'll find either an "Express Lane" button - just follow the instructions to get to the contact form - or an "Email Us" button) ") and explaining what happened. Reportedly in some cases Apple has allowed redownloading on a one-time basis.
Regards.

Mac Apps and iOS apps are not the same.

If I have purchased an app on my iphone. can i download the app to use on my macbook pro without paying for it again?
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
iOS apps are different than Mac apps, so you can't use a iOS app on a Mac. You have to purchase that app in the Mac App Store in order to use it with the Mac. They are different operating systems and require different apps -
Will it continue the download or it starts all over again?
It should. I know when I pause downloads on my computer, they automatically resume when i reopen iTunes from the point they were at when i turned it off. I would assume the iPhone would work the same way.

Can't download a purchased album in iTunes (Some Kind of Trouble)
Hello Community,
I'm not able to download a purchased album in the iTunes Store, on the album page there are some titles where it says that I have purchased it before, but i can't download those titles. An then there are some titles on wich only the price is mentioned. The weird thing is that on my iPhone I'm able to load the album out of the iCloud, but when I do this some titles are in the normal version of the album, and some others in the Deluxe Edition - album, wich looks really dumb, like in the picture below.
Hopefully someone of you unterstands my problem, an can help me.Hi Kiesel10,
If you are having issues redownloading a previously purchased album or track, you may find the following article helpful:

Viber messages and data lost from iTunes backup HELP
This morning I backed up everything in iTunes on my iPhone 4s, which I just had replaced due to a cracked display.
When I restored my replacement iPhone from the latest back up, to my horror, all Viber history and messages had
vanished and only the blank application appeared. I was using Viber 4.2.1
If anyone knows a way around this, it would be very much appreciated, as there was a lot of important information contained :-((PS - I contacted Viber and this was their response; "I apologize for the inconvenience, please, adress your issue to Apple Support, since we do not restore history message through the app."

Changed username and password for App Store, now can't download already purchased apps.
I recently changed the email associated with my Apple ID and then later the password for it. Now the App Store thinks I'm a different user and does not recognize previous purchases. When I try to login with the old account info it does not work. Can someone help me get the App Store to remember the purchases that I've already made?
Content purchased with an Apple ID are permanently tied to that Apple ID.
Did you change the email address or create a new one?
If the former, simply sign out and sign back in with the correct credentials.
If the later, simply provide the password for the correct account. -
Why can't I download already purchased music onto my ipad mini
I can't download already purchased music. I've tried connecting to my Macbook but it doesn't recognise my ipad mini.
Try deleting the waiting app then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

hello, I'm using the same apple id on my Ipad and Iphone, and anything i do and my ipad reflects on my iphone. if i download an app on my iphone it also downloads on my ipad. Can i stop this from happening. i need help. thank you.
Yes, under the Settings for the store, you can turn off the auto download for purchases, that way if you purchase an app on another device it will not automatically download on that device. You would need to do this on both your iPad and iPhone.

I have lost my iphone can i get it and i have not installed find my iphone app
i lost my iphone can i get it back
The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone is through Find My Phone or a similar app. However, this requires that Find My Phone be setup/activated, on your phone, before it was lost/stolen. You would then login at iCloud.com & try to locate it. This requires the phone be turned on & have an Internet connection. There is no other way to locate a lost/stolen iPhone. Apple can't/won't help you, nor will your carrier. Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords.
If your carrier offers Blacklisting & they Blacklist the phone, it will be unusable as a phone.
If locked with a passcode, all a thief or whoever finds it has to do is force the phone into recovery mode & restore it. While this deletes all data on the phone, it also removes the passcode so the phone can then be used as a phone or touch.
There is NO WAY to report any lost/stolen product to Apple. -

Hi, just need to know how to get my music, video, pictures and apps form my iPhone to my new laptop as the old computer, which I used before was stolen. I only have my phone left and if I try to conect it to my new laptop it's trying to delete everything.
I have also noticed all my settings won't stay set, example....I removed the check mark from "third party cookies", the when I close Firefox and reopen the check mark is back, also my tool bar has screwed up....can't reset, been having trouble the up grade.

I need help please.
thank youThe backup does not include synced media like apps and music. You can redownload them by:

If you used PhotoStream get them from your stream. See:
