All my apps are missing after syncing???

After trying to update all my apps, I had my husband sync my Iphone to my ibook. Everything went fine, when I disconnected my Iphone, I found that all the apps I had purchased (or that were free) were missing from my phone. My husband and I played a bit with it and re-syncing it, we found that my apps are not stored on my laptop either (unless they are hidden somewhere.) However, I found under the App icon a list of all my husband's iphone apps waiting to be installed on my iphone.
My questions: what happened to my apps? Will I have to reinstall all of my apps and then repay for them? How did my Iphone get his apps waiting to be installed on my iphone? (he has his own ibook computer that he syncs his own phone to). Are all my apps somewhere on my computer/iphone, but just hidden? And if so, how do I get to them?
Thanks...I've never used this Apple Support - hope someone can help!

Is it just your apps or is other media missing too? Are the apps still in the ...\iTunes\iTunes Media\Mobile Applications folder?

    Disconnected from what? the computer? Did you connect to the computer again, launch iTunes and then do as I described above?
    You have selected all of the apps to sync - put checkmarks in all of the boxes next to the app names and have the Sync Apps heading checked as well?
    Do you have restrictions set on the iPad? Settings>General>Restrictions>On?
    Are you signed into the correct iTunes account on the iPad and the computer?

  • I'm using iTunes/Windows 11.1.0.126.  All my apps are missing!

    All my apps are missing in itunes library.  Where can I go to get them (hundreds) back?

    Similar happened to me when i moved my iTunes library from XP to Win 8.1. Apps were in iTunes but would not sync to iPhone - could not find oritinal file. Win Xp and 8.1 have different file paths for My Documents and My Music. Locate the folder within iTunes called Mobile Applications. It should have a file with an IPA extension for each application. Add that folder to library. That will refresh the iTunes database so that it knows where to find the apps. I had to do that to my entire library (music, podcasts, etc)

  • Since updating to iOS5, the delete buttons on all my apps are missing. I did a hard shutdown, but that did not resolve the issue. Would appreciate any suggestions to restore this feature.

  • All music in my library are missing after sync.

    All music in my library are missing after synch, but it seems that its still in the phone cause I checked memory usage and it doesn't add up. And when I connect it to itunes and checked the memory usage bar in the bottom,  it seems that my music was categorized in "Others". I'm using iPhone 5s with the latest OS.

    This has just happened to me, I've had songs in Music on my phone for years and suddenly, and randomly, they're greyed out and unplayable. This applies to some playlists and not others, to songs I've played on my phone even in the last week.
    Damned infuriating and I can't yet find a resolution - Apple, what have you done this time!

  • Apps are missing after updating to 4G.

    Apps are missing (all but 3) after updating ITouch to 4g
    They still show up on Itunes but not showing up on Touch even after syncing
    How do I get them back?

    First try resetting the iPod:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If not successful, try restoring the iPod from backup.

  • Notes in the Notes app are missing after upgrade to iOS 8

    I upgraded my iPhone 5s to iOS 8.  After the upgrade, all of the notes stored in the Notes app are missing.  The notes were not associated with an email address, as I believe they were stored on the "On my iPhone" account.  I also tried restoring the phone from a backup prior to the upgrade, but that did not restore the notes.  To be clear, the notes app is there, but the notes inside it are missing.  Solutions?

  • IOS update to 5.1 now all purchased apps are missing

    I just completed the iOS update on my husband's phone & all of his purchased apps are missing.  They are not in his phone, nor are they in iTunes despite a previous back up.  Where are they & how do I restore them? 

    As long as the apps are still available in the store, and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to buy them, then you should be able to re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519 . If you download them to your computer's iTunes you could then try restoring to your backup and see if that restores them and their settings/content - a backup doesn't contain the actual apps, just their content/settings, so for the restore to work fully iTunes needs access to the apps so that it can restore them.

  • Update to itunes 9.1 - All contacts are missing after syncing iphone 3G

    I have updated Mac OS and itunes to the latest versions and synced my iphone as everytime. As I started my navigation app during car driving I noted that *all my stored contacts do not exist anymore*. It seems that the last sync has deleted my whole contacts library on my phone. Only the empty distribution lists are available. My contact folder in the address book of my mac are still existing. But neither a iphone reset nor the replacement action for contacts in itunes are working to solve the problem.
    I hope the itunes-team is working on a bugfix. It is not acceptable, that a s/w-update is not tested enough before being released to the community.
    Please give a message how the further plan is. Thx. Axel

    I just had the same problem on my Windows 7 PC.
    I updated to iTunes 9.1 a few days prior. On 4/19, I plugged my iPhone 3G into my Windows 7 laptop to charge it, didnt touch anything on the phone or the laptop, and went to sleep. The next morning I grabbed my phone and went to work. I noticed that all of my contacts had been deleted off my phone. I then went home that night and looked at my laptop, which I had not used since before I plugged in my iPhone. All of my contacts have been deleted off my laptop as well. I tried doing a system restore on my laptop to see if it would restore my windows contacts. No luck. I also did the system restore to see if it would bring up an earlier version of an iphone backup, as itunes automatically backed up my phone when i reconnected it, so my contacts were no longer on there as well.
    Please help!

  • After the 2.2.1 update...all my apps are missing...

    Even some of the ones that came with the ipod already. I am missing the Calendar, stocks, and notes apps. Besides that...I am also missing the 13 game apps. When I connect my ipod to the computer, it says that I have used 95 megs for apps, but I don't see them anywhere on my ipod. What is the problem?

    I've just run the 2.2.1 update and have the same problem where NONE of my apps or games will run. They do seem to be still installed but the update has screwed something up!
    I hope they fix it soon, I don't want to have spent money on the apps just to have to delete them because of their mistake.

  • ITunes 9.2.1 & iPhone 3GS iOS 4.0.1 - Apps Icons Missing After Sync

    As stated on the title.
    It was syncing fine with all the icons and everything when I was running 3.1.3, but after i updated to the new iOS and the new iTunes, the apps have been getting funky. Sometimes they'll go missing or moved around quite a bit. Anyone else have this problem? I have two other co-workers with the same problem. I am running Windows 7 64-Bit
    First co-worker: 3GS on iOS 4.0.1 & iTunes 9.2.1 - Using Windows XP
    Second co-worker: 3G on iOS 3.1.2 & iTunes 9.2.1 - Using Windows 7 32-bit
    Any help will be greatly appreciated!
    Is this a common problem with the new iTunes?

    I had the problem where I got an unknown error when upgading from 3.1.3 to 4.0.1 last night. It put my phone into recovery & said that I had to restore it. Tried to twice but I still kept getting the unknown error message. Wasn't until I restarted my computer that it let me restore.
    All of my music, videos, contacts, etc are fine. But I found that none of my apps were restored to the phone. So I had to go back through & manually drag each one back onto the iPhone in iTunes and then re-sync it. But now none of the apps will load or open. I have tried switching the phone off & back on a number of times but it hasn't helped.
    Next I am going to try to restore again & see if that helps. From what I understand, the apps should have also been restored from the previous backup. Am not sure what happened in my case though

  • Mail 2.0.5 - all my messages are missing after marking as read!!!

    Ok Mail has worked more or less fine for me after upgrading from 10.3.9 to 10.4.3..until a few minutes ago when I decided to mark all the unread messages in my inbox as read. I hadn't read quite a few, so instead of going and clicking on each one, I just selected all, right clicked, and chose Mark as Read. Suddenly they all disappeared, all but a few. I have two inboxes, one on my ISP, and one .mac. Disk Utility says the hard disk is fine, so I rebuilt both inboxes, and now my ISP inbox still just shows a few emails (appears to be the emails I've received since upgrading to Tiger, only a few days' worth), and my .mac inbox now shows about a years' worth of emails...but I know I have more than that, since I've had the .mac account for 2-3 years or so. Also next to the .mac inbox there is some sort of a progress icon (a pie gradually filling in). If I hover the mouse over the .mac account, it says "Contents stored on server. Name on server: INBOX". Which doesn't make sense, since I have always had Mail download the mail from both my accounts, deleting from server after downloading. If I get info on my ISP inbox, it displays "Account Info", and under the Show Messages on POP server, it shows a bunch of messages from about a year ago. But if I pulldown the menu and instead of showing "all messages on POP server" I choose either of the other options ("items downloaded to my Mac" or "items removed from my Mac"), the list is exactly the same.
    My mail appears to be still on my hard drive, since getting info on the various mailbox folders in ~/Library/Mail/ shows about the right amounts of data. I don't want to lose over 300MB (at least 5 years worth) of email....anyone know what could have happened, and more importantly how to fix it?? Thanks!

    Ok after thoroughly searching previous threads about similar problems (existing messages not being displayed by Mail 2.x.x), it appears the 10.4 Archive and Install didn't completely convert the mbox file from my ISP email, since there were only a few emlx files (but there are hundreds of emails in the mbox)...so I had to resort to reimporting it manually. Not sure what happened though to make Mail see all the messages for a few days after installing 10.4.3; there was no error message during the system install, and all I did that prompted all my messages to disappear was to mark all as read...
    As far as the .mac goes, I have no clue where those emails went...I discovered that somewhere along the line my mbox file for .mac account got corrupt...but nothing over a year old is even on the server, which is odd. Those messages apparently are forever lost. Add me to the statistics of why it's important to back up. :/

  • I've re-installed Lion using the cmd-r/boot re-install option and now all iLife apps are missing, how do I get them back?

    Hi Folks,
    after about 10 hours of usage, my new (and I mean new and expensive) MacBook Pro refused to boot. The support folks were good and as I hadn't yet created and files on the machine suggested I just did (as suggested by apple) a wipe and re-install as described in the subject line.
    Now I have no iPhoto, no iDVD and a few other apps I don't really care about. What can I do to get them back.
    please help, loseing the will to live here after trawling 2 hours of old posts
    best regards,
    Sam.

    Hi Twitty,
    hmm, I knew I was missing something fairly obvious. I went into AppStore and the apps were there with an "accept" option rather than a price. I've started the download.
    I've no idea if this means I'll be charged or not. I never got a screen with a price on it so hopefully not.
    thanks for your quick response,
    Sam.

  • I just installed 5.0 now all my apps are missing and so is all my music.

    How do I get my apps back?  Can I undo this HORRIBLE update?

    You can get your music back, because it should be in your iTunes anyways.
    But you'll only get your apps back if you transferred your new app purchases over to iTunes before you updated.
