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!

  • In PC I have changed the default app location from default to other and copied the previous content to new location and changed the Default location in preference. Now in iTunes, my previous apps are not visible. Is there any solution to this?

    wjosten - thanks very much for the detailed instructions. I'll try this as soon as I get my replacement and it looks like you'll probably end up getting the green tick

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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:

  • My outlook 2010 Contact Groups are not visible in iTunes; only syncs main Outlook Contact Folder, others not synching

    I have an iPhone (running the latest device software) and have Outlook 2010 for PC on my desktop.  I have several Outlook 2010 Contact Folders/Groups but when I try to sync with my iPhone I only have the option to sync all of my contacts.
    When I sync this -- the only Outlook folder/group that is synced is my main 'Contacts' folder/group.  All the rest of my folders/groups are not being transferred to my iPhone.  I've had this issue for a few months now -- and though I like the iPhone, my old Blackberry nev er presented this problem when it came to the simple base function of syncing.  Appreciate your help -- as I am out of answers.  Thanks.

  • Apps are not installing via iTunes,

    I think I am not the first person to have this issue, and Apple won't allow me to contact technical support about it because the ipad is a year old.  I made a video highlighting the problem in detail and the circumstances surrounding it, anyone have any ideas? This issue occured both before and after I upgraded to ios6.
    http://youtu.be/RXWE1t5wApY

    Did a full restore of my ipad last night, now at least nine different apps failed to install, and once they do it becomes impossible for any other apps to install.  Even tried deleting the app and re-downloading it from app store, still won't sync.

  • Many contacts are not visible to alphabetical browse on Contacts after update to OS 10.2 on the Z10

    After updating to 10.2 on Z10  many contacts do not appear on the Contacts list, but if I search for them, I get them one at a time. I can't browse for them, but they are still in a file somewhere. That file is no longer fully connected to the Contacts app, it seems. I'm going to call the two alternatives the "browsible" list when I refer to the Contact app working correctly and lsiting the contact alphabetically; and the "non-browsible" list, when I can only find them by a search.
    One other thing of interest. When I add a contact that is in the same name as one on the non-browsible, I will get a message asking me if I want to replace the [old] contact. If I say yes, the new contact listing joins the hidden list and replaces what was there. If I say no, I get the contact added to the browsible Contact app. Thereafter, if I search on that name I get two hits: one is the old, non-browsible entry and the other is the new one that is browsible.
    I did the 10.2 update when I was running the older BB link on a WinXP computer and it did not work to create a back-up, so I can't try restore. I now run Win7 64-bit and the new link seems to work okay,  but that was installed after I upgraded to 10.2..
    Any suggestions as to where I go to find the hidden contact entries on the non-browsible list? And how I get them to appear on the alphabetical, browsible, list when Contacts is opened?
    Thanks for all answers.
    Ken 

    That's another odd thing. I did make a big effort to back-up the Z10 before the update to OS 10.2.1.  But, it appears to me that by downloading the new OS to my computer [T-Mobile never does push the BB updates, not as long as I've owned it, which was a few days before the US distro, when I got hold of one for the South American market in Miami Breach] it seems to have removed my installed BB Link from my laptop. And my back-up files are empty.  
    Last time something like this happened. there was a workaround. Do this, do that, and suddently the contacts that are lurking somewhere on the phone, appear. I was hoping for this again.
    If this is a known issue, why is it not featured on the BB page where the installer was located? I would never have downloaded OS 10.2.1, if I was warned I might lose my contacts and texts. 
    A sorry mess.

  • Iphone 5 / Ipad not visible in itunes for wireless syncing

    Hi
    Could anyone shed any light in to why my devices randomly decide not to show in the left hand side of itunes when they can sometimes be only a few feet from the router - it does seem to be random as they often do show - but you can guarantee when I want to wirelessly sync they do not show and I'm back to good old tethering again.
    many thanks

    I have the same issue, with my brand new iphone 5s, and my 4 month old dell desktop. The computer recognizes the iphone when i plug in the usb, but itunes will not. I dont know what to do.

  • HT201272 some of my apps are not on my home screen after the ios6 update... how do I get them back?

  • "podcasts" is not visible in iTunes after software update

    iTunes no longer shows "podcasts" as a category.  I have several active subscriptions--they seem to have disappeared.  All of the other usual categories (e.g., music, TV shows) are still there.  This occurred immediately after I downloaded today's iTunes upgrade.  I have tried downloading more podcasts.  That happens fine--but they are not visible from iTunes after the download.

    I can re-check the "podcasts" box in the Windows version.  It's not grayed out.  But there doesn't seem to be any way to save my changes.  Didn't the "preferences" dialog box used to have a "save changes" button at the bottom? 

  • Elements 11 albums not visible in iTunes for synching

    I've recently upgraded from Elements 8 to 11. New albums created in organiser 11 are not visible in iTunes for synching to my iPod. All of the albums created in Elements 8 are still visible. Is this a bug or is there something I need to do to make the new albums visible?

      Yes I’m sure Adobe think it’s a third party problem and probably have little interest in synching with Apple devices. It’s a bit disssapointing and whilst Mac users can sync with iPhoto or Aperture, the majority of users will be using Windows and will wish to sync their PSE11 albums. Hopefully Apple & Adobe will talk to each other.
    There is a work around but it involves first creating the album in PSE10 (or your earlier version) and importing it into PSE11. It will then be recognized in iTunes when you connect your device and click on the Photos tab. Let me know if you want instructions.
