Apps are not appearing in iTunes

None of my apps are showing up in iTunes. When I click on the app icon in iTunes, it just says apps you have downloaded should appear here and it only gives a link to the app store. How do I fix this?

Until you posted this - I would have never even looked at this .... but when I click the arrow next to my iPad name under the devices heading - there is no apps folder visible for me either.
Try this. Connect the iPad to the Mac and launch iTunes, right click on the iPad name on the left side bar and select - transfer purchases. See if the transfer process even starts. You can watch the progress bar at the top of the screen to see what's going on. If it looks like the apps transferred - look for the apps again in the Library section of iTunes.
I assume that you are running iTunes 11, like I am - and maybe the fact that the Apps folder is not viable under the iPad's name under the does headings is some sort of bug. I almost never look at that though like I said earlier so I can't remember what it looked like in iTunes 10.

HT1977 Old App purchases are not appearing in itunes 11

I have recently upgraded from iTunes 10.x to iTunes 11 and my old purchased Apps that were not on my ipad but on my computer are not appearing in itunes 11 to put back on my ipad?

I solved the issue. Her profile permissions on the Mobile Applications folder for some reason was set to read only. Once I set the permissions for her user account to Read and Write, I was able to download an App and sync her devices, with the Apps syncing back to her iTunes library

Hi there,
If you are experiencing an issues where iTunes is not recognizing your iPod, then I would recommend taking a look at the article below.

IPad Group Contacts are not appearing in itunes

I have a Group Contacts app on my ipad mini that syncs with the contacts on my iPad. I created 4 groups. I want to import those groups into Outlook. I tried opening up icloud, select all, export. Only the 1st contact in that particular group is exported. I then deleted and reinstalled itunes and my groups are not appearing.

Have had same problem and read many different posts on the discussion boards. Came to my own sort of hybrid solution that's posted below:
Backup address book.
Turn off syncing to iPhone within iTunes, and then hit Apply to make sure it takes.
Quit Address Book, iTunes, and basically everything.
Go to Finder > Library > Application Support > Address Book … move all folders out of there EXCEPT the Metadata folder.
Go to Finder > Library > Application Support > Sync Services … move everything out of there.
Reboot computer.
Open address book.
Open iTunes, connect iPhone, and sync.
NOTE: I had to play with these steps, and their order, several times to force iTunes to properly reflect what’s in the address book/contacts, but after about the sixth time it worked.

Which apps "are not in your iTunes library" ?

I get the message "There are apps on" phone "which are not in your iTunes library. Would you like to back up these apps from your iPhone?" when synching.
How do I find out which apps these are? I'm trying to determine if they were ones that I decided I don't like and deleted. Or if there's something else that has gone wrong.

that's my problem...I don't want to have something I've ruled out show back up again - makes it hard to figure out which one I liked. (and there's always that pesky memory limit)
It's unusual for me to download directly - only when I'm on the road and there's an upgrade I need.
But I do things like download 10 free Sudoku apps, play them on different devices, and go back to iTunes to delete the ones I don't like so they'll be gone from all the devices.
Where's the list "applications A, B, C are on your iPhone, but not iTunes"?
I'm not afraid of a command line if that's where I need to go.

My purchased Apps are not synching with iTunes

I have a serious OS crash recently, and I had to reinstall the entire system from a scratch (the hard drives were formatted). Before reinstalling, I deauthorised my computer in iTunes. Then, when my new system was ready, I installed iTunes, and authorised it for my Apple ID. But now I have a synching issue - when I'm connecting my iPhone, iTunes says that this computer is not authorised for the apps that are installed in my iPhone, and asks me to authorise this computer. I click on "Authorise" button, enter my Apple ID and pass. itunes connects to the iTunes Store, and says that this computer is already authorised. But my apps are not transfered! I've tried to transfer them manually, by selecting "transfer purchased items" in the iTunes File menu. But it didn't help me. All that is transfered are my purchased books for iBook app... there is no "Apps" menu in my media libruary in the iTunes top left corner... Is there a way to fix this? I don't want to re-purchase the apps that I've already payed for!
P.S. Sorry if my English is bad - it's not my native language

App's are not appearing in iTunes on Shared Library

I have Mac and had the iTunes library stored on my profile. I then moved the entire library following Apple's KBASE to the shared folder, and pointed mine and my girlfriends iTunes preferences to the shared library.
Everything on my end seems to work just fine. But with her library, when she syncs her iPad or iPhone, none of the App's are stored in iTunes. It will say they are syncing, every time a device is connected, but the Applications tab that appears for each device is blank, as well as the Applications directory on the top left of iTunes.
In the Directory ~Users/Shared/iTunes Music/Mobile Applications I can see all of my App's, but none of her App's appear. I have tried spotlight searching for an App name that is specific to her devices with no luck.
I have ensured her iTunes account is authorized on her profile. All of her app purchasing has been done from the device itself, so she needs them to sync back to iTunes. I am able to go to File>Add to iTunes library, and import my Apps into her library. But even when downloading an App, directly from the iTunes store on her account, they do no appear in her iTunes Library.......I can't seem to figure out what piece of this puzzle is missing????? Any suggestions would be much appreciated

Available App updates not appearing in iTunes

Hello!
I'm using iTunes 8.1.1 (I'm avoiding 8.2 until problems with it are fixed). When I open iTunes, next to the Applications item in the Library column is a number indicating the number of updates available; when I click on that, I'm brought to the page that shows all my Apps, and they are all there. At the bottom right is the number of updates available; when I click on that, I get a screen that indicates that NO updates are available.
At the App Store on the iPhone, intermittently I see either all the updates that are available, or "All Apps are up to date.'
Can anyone help me to understand why iTunes first registers all the available updates but then 'loses' them?
Thanks!

I finally figured out what the issue is.
On iTunes, I found in my list of apps a few apps that I had deleted on my phone but these deletions did not synchronize properly with the computer. Look closely at your list and find the apps that are no longer on the phone but somehow are still on iTunes despite syncing.
It seems iTunes is still looking for updated for these old apps and when any are available they appear as "Available Updates". iTunes is drawing its update query from this list. But then when you click on the updates button, none appear because iTunes also seems to know that these apps are no longer on your phone.
In other words: this is a bug. For whatever reason Apple has not bothered to fix this for months now.
Solution: Go one and by one and delete on iTunes the ones you no longer have. Presto!

TS1702 Some of my purchased apps are not showing in iTunes...

I'm using the latest version of iTunes for Win8.
1 day after restoring a backup on my iPhone 5, some of the apps that was previously loaded in from the restoration disappeared somehow. Later on when I tried to download the apps from iTunes, they did not show the disappeared apps at all. It showed on my iPhone that I did purchase these apps, however, it is not being shown on iTunes. What's going on here?

Hello there, Gozieson.
Since the apps are showing on the iPhone you might want to review this Knowldge Base article:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
If they are still not showing on your phone either, then this should help:

After setting up iTunes 11, my devices are not showing up on the program.

I solved this by restarting my computer.

CD'S details are not appearing in iTunes

When I put a CD in my PC it appears in iTunes but none of the details are there. It just reads "track 01" etc. Why isnt it displaying the track title, artist name and album title?

Hey joepa327,
Vista isnt currently supported by iTunes, this link: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305042 gives more information about the compatability.
You can try to goto Advanced>Get CD Track names. These articles: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93952 & http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=61068 give more information about the way iTunes works with the track names.

Apps are not visible on ITunes. Unable to sync or update.

Hi!
I recently reformatted my laptop. When I connected my IPhone I lost all my music and my apps. However I restored my purchased apps by downloading them directly from the IPhone. Now I'm unable to sync them through the 'Apps' section in ITunes. I'm unable to update the apps through my computer. Is there a way to resolve this? I'd like my apps to be visible on ITunes.
Can anyone advice? Thanks so much!

HT203167 Purchased songs, movies, tv shows & apps are not appearing in "Purchased" folder in iTunes store. How do I fix this?

The items are downloaded to my harddrive so I do have these items. However, if I wanted to access any of these purchased items on my iPad2 via the cloud I cannot. They no longer show up. How do I fix this? How do I get the listing of all my purchased items back in "Purchased" in the store?

What country are you in ? Music, films and TV shows can't be re-downloaded in all countries - what can be re-downloaded where.
You should keep and maintain your own backup of all your purchases, as even if they could be re-downloaded as apps and ibooks can be, there is no guarantee that any item will remain in the store for future re-downloading.

The different music genre pages in the itunes app are not appearing in ios 6

Has anyone else had this problem? The store works fine but the individual genre tabs appear blank

Yep. Looks like the function is down. And only for music. Movies, tv etc. work fine. Hadn't noticed until now since I never use genre as a filter.
