Apps all gone?

I have an iPhone 3g and my wifi wasn't working at all! The wifi button wasn't working like I couldn't press it at all, so my brother told me to erase my iPhone. I backed it up and erased my iPhone, it didn't work so he told me to jailbreak it because he thought maybe since my iPhone was originally jailbroken it might just need it to be jailbroken again. I did that and when I looked at it again ALL apps were gone! There were no settings, safari, or app store nothing, it was just a blank page! (A blank page with, oddly enough, my same wallpaper still) When I tried to search up things on the iPhone it was found, but it said it was not loaded at all. Help anyone??

you will have to plug the phone back into itunes and click restore

  • IPad 2 to iPad 2 Restore Failure - Apps all Gone

    My iPad 2 screen cracked (without being dropped), and to Apple's credit, they gave me a new one yesterday at the local Apple Store.  I had done a total sync on damaged iPad before going to store, and then took the new iPad 2 and plugged it into iTunes.  Of course, I chose to do a restore, and it seemed to take a very long time, loading everything up.
    Issue:  All of my music loaded up just fine, but ZERO apps.  I then looked at iTunes, and it is showing no apps for the iPad.  Big problem, I have purchased what amounts easily to over $1000 worth of apps.  I then figured that if I just started manually loading some apps, with the iPad not plugged in, that I would get the standard message that I have already purchased the app, so it is free.  I tried this with Pages (yes, I know, I should have "tested" this theory with a .99 cents app, not so swift).  It charged me!
    Any ideas as to what went wrong here?  How do I get my apps back?
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Are you using the same iTunes account that you used to originally download the apps ? You should be able to re-download them for free if you are : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    Also the backup contains the app contents and settings, but not the apps themselves - if you can get the apps into your computer's iTunes library then the restore should work better (in order to restore the contents of an app it needs to be able to install the app itself first)

  • HT203175 I plugged my iPod into the computer and it says that my iPod is synced with another iTunes library, but it's not. So all my music and apps are gone. What can I do to remind the computer its the right iTunes library and get all my stuff back?

    Same as you would if you bought a pc; copy everything from your old computer to your new one.  Then you can just sync everything from the new computer, as you did with the old one.

  • I force shutdown my MacBook Pro and when I reopened my laptop, my files and apps are all gone.

    I force shutdown my MacBook Pro by pressing the shutdown button for a long time and when I reopened my laptop, my files and apps are all gone.
    When I reopened my laptop, it said that some files have been deleted or hidden (I don't know if it said hidden, I don't remember). my dock and wallpaper were set back to default.
    This isn't my first time force shutting my MacbookPro.
    How can I restore/recover back my stuff?
    i heard time machine restores your stuff back.
    And please don't tell me to go to apple because I have made an appointment with them but I'm still worried.
    Please if you know anything about this please tell me anything you know.
    Please help me.

    Given that you sound a nervous wreck and a neophyte in matters Mac, it would be safest that you put the Mac away, go take a chill pill, grab a bite, get some rest. Then take the Mac to its scheduled appointment with Destiny, er, the Apple Genius.
    There's a good possibility of data loss and munging around unknowing, following instructions that will probably be hard to grasp will only increase the amount of damage.

  • All of my apps are gone, and I'm having trouble with iCloud

    Let me preface this by saying that Apple made me change my password a few days ago, before I downloaded the new IoS software. So I synced my music, videos and apps to my PC this afternoon before downloading the new software. I downloaded the software, and now my apps are missing from my iPad AND my PC, even after I synced them. To make things even more confusing, when I entered my new password, it said it was invalid. I entered my old one, and it worked. No apps there. And I tried verifying my Apple ID, I clicked the link and filled out the info, and it said there was already a user with my e-mail. I'm trying to re-access it, and it says it still hasn't been verified on my iPad. What do I do?
    Edit: Never mind, everything is fine now.

    I downloaded IOS 5 and all my apps are gone.  When I go to the app store  and click purchases, I am asked to enter apple id and password, but apple id is already entered - I can't change it.  And it isn't my id, but my son's.
    That's because your son's ID was used to make the purchases.  ALL purchases are permanently associated with whatever Apple ID was used to originally obtain them.  Apps can not be updated without knowledge of that ID and, more importantly, its password.  Apple IDs can not be merged and purchases can not be transferred from one ID to another.

    Restore.  Everything is restored except the password.  Note that a Restore can take quite a while.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    When the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad.  Say "YES" and be prepared for a long wait (several hours).  That prompt has a timer and will disappear if you do not respond to it within a reasonable time.  If you leave the computer and return and see that the iPad has only the built-in apps, simply click the manual "Sync" button (bottom right).

  • I went on a trip and when I came back almost all my ipad apps were gone(I suspect my dad). When I went to go look at my account it was as the same as the ipad, it had none of my other games on there. How do I get my account back to how it was

    I kind of ran into the same issue when I checked my purchased apps on my iPad in the iTunes store.  A bunch were not there.  I then looked at iTunes on my computer and again, a bunch were missing.  I realized I had not synched in quite a while.  Once I synched everything was ok.  As the poster above said, iTunes knows you have already purchased them so you can redownload for free.  However, be aware that when you do red own load you will be asked to pay again, just say ok and the next popup will say that you have already purchased the app.
    Lesson I learned - synch more often.  Boy, I can't wait for IOS5......

  • Ive tried to update and sync my ipod touch and its froze, itunes wont recognise it and when it turns for a few seconds on my apps have all gone?

    i cant get my ipod to turn on - i tried to update it and it froze with an apple and loading bar on the screen. it finally asked me to plug it in to itunes which i have but then it wont recognise it and when it does it tries to restore it. itunes says it has been restored and needs to be synced but then it disappears and cant be found by itunes again. the ipod itself turns on for a few seconds but all of my apps have gone?! then all goes black and i have to start all over again. please help xxx

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Crash during sync, now all my apps are gone.

    My laptop and iphone crashed during a sync. Laptop would lock up as soon as the phone was plugged in, and the phone started random reboots and freezes.
    I reinstalled WinXP and itunes on the laptop, but still could not sync. The phone would come up "sync in progress", but then nothing happened. Left it sit overnight, and sync still would never complete.
    Restored the phone to factory settings, and now everything seems fine. Only problem is that all of my downloaded apps are gone. I can see the history where I purchased them in the itunes store but they are not in itunes. If I try to reload them it wants me to pay for them again. Is there any way to recover previously purchased apps?

    You can re-download purchased apps for free. Click on buy, click yes to I want to purchase, another popup will appear, you have already purchased, do you want to re-download, click yes.

  • I just updated my iphone 4S & all apps are gone. How do I get them back.

    I just updated my iphone 4S & all my apps are gone.

    All your apps should be in your itunes media library, so sync your phone to itunes.
    Only the app data is part of the backup, not the apps itself.

  • I just started up itunes and all my apps are gone, how do I get them back?
