Apps in Library are not showing in Apps tab

I have had a few rounds of restoring my 3G and then fresh start with a 3GS phone. It's been going along well, I've been able to sync most all of my apps back onto my new phone, but there was one I wanted that I know I purchased when it was free. I see it in my apps library, but it does not show up in my apps tab to sync to my phone. I am leery to repurchase because I now see that it costs $2.99 to download and I don't want to buy, just use the old app I had.
How does one get an app from the apps library into my apps tab for my phone? It was purchased on the same itunes account. Any help is appreciated!

Providing it is the same app, you can download it again without being charged. It does not matter what price you paid (even if the app was free) - even if the app is no longer free this will be a free download.
To ensure it is the same app, go to (on your computer):
iTunes Store > Account > Purchase History
It's also possible that the app does not appear under the Apps tab if that app is not compatible with your iOS version.

  • App store updates are not showing

    App store updates are not showing since yesterday

    Agreed. Since installing iOS 7 I seem to have to open the App Store before available updates show. I currently have background app refreshes switched "on" but no apps actually selected from the list.

  • Some Photos in Library are not showing on iPhoto

    I imported some photos from another Mac to my MacBook Air and organized them in several events.  All went well until I had a large number of photos (and some videos) which took a long time to transfer and iPhoto was not responding for over an hour.   I forced quit the iPhoto and now when I go back, I see the events that I had created but they are empty (photos are not showing).   When I tried to re-import the photos, it says the photos are duplicate which I assume it means photos exist in the photo library.  My question is how do I get the photos existing in the library to be visible on iPhoto.  Thanks.

    Back up your iPhoto library, Depress and hold the option (alt) and command keys and launch iPhoto - from the resulting first aid window repair permissions and if necessary rebuild your database

  • Changes made in iphoto library are not showing up in aperture

    I currently have Aperture referencing my photos off of my iphoto library. I have made changes (consolidated a couple of events) and imported more photos from my camera and both are not showing up in Aperture.
    The new photos I imported were placed into an existing event (in both iphoto and aperture).
    How do I get aperture to recognize the changes I made in organizing my library?
    Thanks
    Michael

    Aperture won't know that you've made changes to your iPhoto library, and therefore won't redraw the thumbnail or update the main image. The way iPhoto works that if you make a change, it'll create another JPG and store it within the iPhoto Library folder or package (depending on which version you're on). If Aperture is still referencing the original image (quite likely), its not going to know iPhoto has created another one, and even more so, where that file is. You can do it the other way around and up date the to, for example, have images in your Aperture library, referenced to your iPhoto library. If you change the image in Aperture, it will update in iPhoto using the JPEG previews. The only thing that might not change is the iPhoto thumbnail, but the image itself will bring through the changes from Aperture as technically, its the same file is looking at.

  • All my photos in my library are not showing up

    All my photos in my library are just showing gray.. here's a screenshot

    Update your video drivers.  If that doesn’t fix it, calibrate your monitor, or set your display profile to sRGB if you don’t have a calibration tool.  If neither of those fix it, then rename your LR preview folder to something else and let LR rebuild all your previews.

  • I downloaded apps and they are not transfering to my ipod touch

    I have downloaded a bunch of apps but they are not showing up on my ipod.  They are showing up in my library but not on my ipod.

    Connect your Device to Computer. Select your iPod Touch under "Devices" on the left Pane. On the right Pane, select APPS tab.
    Make sure SYNC APPS box is checked. Scroll through the Apps and check the box of those newly purchased apps.  Then click the SYNC or APPLY button on the lower right Window.

  • TS1702 Updates in App Store is not showing the Apps list

    After updating iOS to 6.1 in my iPhone 4s, while tapping 'Updates' in App Store, it is not showing the Apps list, though over the icon it is showing that 11 Apps has got Updates available.

    hi
    i've had your same proble,
    you have to go on settings-->itunes&app stores-->apple ID and sign out.
    after this restart your device:
    Reset the iPhone by holding the sleep/wake button at the top right of the device and the home buttonat the bottom center of the face at the same time.
    Hold them both until you see the screen go black. In some cases, you may need to keep holding them even after the red power off slider appears. If it does, just keep holding it.
    Wait until the white Apple logo appears.
    ok, now go to settings-->itunes&app stores-->apple ID and sign in again
    ... for me it worked
    bye bye let me know if it works even for you!

    Are the apps compatible witht he iPOd model and iOS version?
    Do you have restrictions set that prohibit instaling apps?

  • My itunes tv and movie purchases are not showing in my video app

    my itunes tv and movie purchases are not showing in my video app, iphone 5s, and this has happened since ios 8 was installed

    Were they previously downloaded/synced to your iPhone, and if they were have you got them in the TV Shows and Movies parts of your computer's iTunes library. When you update via a computer the device is backed up, the iOS version is updated, and your content is then restored to the device - but none of your iTunes downloads are included in the actual backup (just your documents, notes, calendars, app settings etc), instead it looks to get the apps, music, films, TV shows from your iTunes library.
    If the 'show all' setting isn't showing them then what country are you are in, you are logged in with the same account that you bought them with, you haven't changed countries since buying them and they aren't hidden : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases ?

  • Songs Are Not Showing in Music App

    I have synced my iTunes library to my iPad Mini. If I go to Settings > About > General I see the correct number of songs listed. Also, all my restrictions are off. However, my songs are not showing in the music app. If I am at home and on the same network I can see them listed if I go to the Music > Library > My Library. But if I am away from home I do not see this option and do not see the entirety of my music library or playlists. Has anyone else encountered this?

    You are seeing the Shared Library in Home Sharing. You have to be on the same WiFi network as the iTunes library that you want to share, so that is why you see those songs when you are at home. The songs that you see in there are not on your iPad.
    For whatever reason, all of your songs did not sync correctly. How are you syncing? Are you syncing automatically and if so have you selected the entire Music Library to sync? Take a look at this. The fact that it is written for the iPod doesn't matter since it works the same way for any iOS device.

  • Apps needing access to Contacts are not showing in the Privacy pane of security

    I have apps like cobook and Alfred that need access to Contacts but they are not showing in the Privacy pane of the Security & Privacy System Preferences.

    Back up all data.

  • My contacts are not showing up on the PC app or the web interface.  Why isn't this working?

    My contacts are not showing up on the PC app or the web interface.  Message+ works fine on my Note 4 though.  My contacts are saved in my Google account.
    I've tried several things but message+ acts like there are no contacts in the app yet there are names and pictures in my conversations.  Can anyone help me?

        matthttam,
    Let's make sure that we get you up and running with no issues. I want to make sure that we are on the same page. Are your contacts actually listed in the address book on your phone? Are you using Verizon Messages? Or the third party Messages  from the Play Store? Please keep us posted.
