Apps Lost in Syncing with Computer...Please Help!!

Hello,
I just repaired my laptop that I used to have Itunes on. When I went to backup my iPod Touch itunes removed all of my apps (over 80) and only replaced like 36 of them and told me that this computer was not authorized to use my ipod on. I just had a new HD installed on this laptop so I am thinking that I should have reauthorized this computer before syncing my ipod.
Here is what scares me, can I get those apps back and if so how do I get them back? There is well over $100 worth of stuff missing.
I also have 2 accounts with itunes that are linked with my ipod so I am sure they are linked to this problem too.
Does Apple record every app that I download or am I screwed?
Please help me
Robert

No you don't have to pay for them again.
You have to find them and re-download them in itunes.
You should maintain a back up of your itunes on an external source so this doesn't happen.

  • Syncing with iTunes, please help!

    I cannot for the life of me get my iPhone to sync with iTunes... I recently had to restore my computer completely, and as a result downloaded the new iTunes, as everything on my computer was wiped out. I also changed from one account to another on my phone at around the same time, and the phone number changed. I don't know if either of these could affect syncing or not. I have tried ALL iTunes suggested troubleshooting, down to uninstalling EVERYTHING to do with iTunes and reinstalling it. Nothing is working, please please help! I'm so frustrated.

    Is your computer authorized? Is your phone recognized in itunes? If yes, did you restore your phone? Can you transfer your purchases from the phone to the computer?

  • My Ipod will not sync with Itunes - PLEASE HELP

    I have a bunch of songs on my ipod that I have from my previous computer and they will not sync with Itunes on my new computer. I have authorized the computer, I have also selected the "transfer purchases from ipod" option, I have spent the last day reading through FAQs but have found no solution. How do I fix the problem? Thanks in advance for your help.

    The transfer purchases option only works with music purchased from iTunes and you don't say if this is the case.
    Here's some other option for Windows users.
    First, try this method which works on some Windows PCs.
    Enable your iPod for disk use.
    See: iPod Disk Use.
    Open iTunes and select edit/preferences/advanced/general. Put a check mark in the box marked "copy files to iTunes music folder when adding to library" and also "keep iTunes music folder organized", then click 'ok'.
    Connect the iPod whilst holding down the shift/ctrl keys to prevent any auto sync, and if you see the dialogue window asking if you want to sync to this itunes library, click 'no'.
    Then go to file/add folder, open 'my computer', select your iPod and click 'ok'.
    The music files should transfer to your iTunes.
    If this doesn't work (and it may not because officially it's not supposed to), check out the instructions/suggestions here.
    Music from iPod to computer (using option 2). This a manual method using "hidden folders" and although it works, it can be messy.
    Much easier ways are to use one of the many 3rd party programs that copy music from the iPod to the computer.
    One of the most recommended is Yamipod. This is a free program that transfers music from iPod back to the computer. However, it does not transfer playcounts/ratings etc.
    Another free program is Pod Player.

  • Problem syncing with Outlook - Please help

    I have two Outlook profiles (mine and my wife's) on my computer. How can I make my iPhone sync with the correct one? Right now it will only pull my wife's contacts, when I want it to sync mine instead. Any assistance you may be able to provide would be greatly appreciated.
    Mike

    I use both Outlook (on XP) and just got an iphone for my wife's Powerbook. In looking in outlook help one thought I had is are all user's (ie your wife) logged off of windows? In other words making your profile the only active choice when syncing? To take it a step further try rebooting and only logging in your profile. If this doesn't help try getting a hold of tech support with iphone.
    Best,

  • Iphone deleted all phone numbers when synced with Exchange, Please Help!!

    We recently received new Iphones for the Administrative staff and thought that like other Smartphones we've used in the past that syncing with Exchange would be a breeze. After doing a bit of research everything pointed towards it being a very simple process, this is the process I followed:
    Open up Itunes with Iphone connected
    Click your iPhone in the "Devices" section on the left
    Click the "Info" tab
    In the Contacts section, check "Sync contacts with" and select "Outlook"
    Click "All Contacts"
    Click the "Sync" button in iTunes lower-right corner
    Click "Merge", so that your contacts on your iPhone are preserved
    This seemed to work but there is one major problem, all of the contacts on the Iphone and the ones imported into Outlook no longer have any phone numbers associated to them. The contacts were all synced into Outlook/Exchange no problem with their respective emails but with no phone numbers at all. Unfortunately the computer which had the backup of this Iphone was recently decommissioned so I have no backup of the phone in its previous state.
    Is there any way to recover the old phone numbers/contacts on the phone without having a backup of it in its previous state? I have tried the "Import Sim Contacts" button in the settings on the phone but it doesn't seem to actually do anything. There are over 100 contacts on this particular phone, some of which the phone numbers will be very difficult to retrieve again.
    I have to say that I'm not very impressed that the most popular smartphone out there can't even sync with the largest email platform in the enterprise world properly. If anybody can help me retrieve those numbers some how I would be extremely appreciative.

    This is the first I have heard of it... but I'm only one person.

    Does the Iphone actually support 2-way sync with Outlook properly or will it erase all of the numbers on the phone every time?
    If you are syncing directly with Outlook, there are options in iTunes to determine which set of contacts takes priority when duplicates are found.  Personally I do not use this.  I have my device set up to sync directly with the exchange server so all changes are made directly on the server.
    Personally I would recommend against using Outlook as the intermediary.  You will get much more consistent and reliable results if the iPhone syncs directly with the exchange server and no worries if the end user has not synced the device in days/weeks/months.

  • Ringtones lost when syncing with computer

    Hi,
    I have an iPhone 3GS, and purchased a ringtone through iTunes on the phone so I could have a Christmas ringtone. When I synched the phone with iTunes on the computer, the ringtone transferred, but it was deleted from the phone. Now it's on my computer in iTunes, but when I try to sync to get it back onto the phone, it says I am "unauthorized to use on this computer." Ehhh???? I don't care if it's on the computer, I just want it back on the phone and how to prevent that in the future. Thanks so much!

    Make sure you log in with the same iTunes Store account used to purchase the ringtone on your iPhone on the computer.
    Then select the Store menu and then Authorize Computer. You may have to DeAuthorize Computer and then Authorize Computer. Then sync again and it should work.

  • My iPhone refuses to sync with iTunes, please help?

    I think I've done everything I've seen online so far. That is to say, I've uninstalled iTunes, downloaded the newest version, switched up USB ports, restarted iPhone and computer... I really don't know what else to do. I'm new to the apple world and loving it aside from this issue. I have Windows Vista, I hope that isn't a problem for the software. I can't upgrade that, unfortunately.
    My dad says I need to back my phone up but I can't, of course... so I would really appreciate some tips! It's making me nervous about the backing up thing and anxious what with the dangerous lack of music on my phone!

    It's not that I'm nervous /to/ back my phone up, I'm just nervous that if I don't, something bad may happen to it. lol
    And iTunes isn't giving me any error code, it's just not responding to the iPhone 4 at all. it doesn't detect it and so I can't sync :/

  • Lost Everything on my computer, please help including info/messages sent to me on the myFICO forums

    Several people have been very kind and shared info to me.  The one I am desperate for at the moment is the person who shared their great, detailed credit card Excel spread sheet. I am in such a state now, I cannot even recall who it was.  I have done several computer searches, e-mail searches, etc., trying to find the spreadsheet.  I can't believe even the info here at myFICO in my settings was affected, but it was.  Maybe because I had to change some log in info.  Regardless, please will that someone email the spreadsheet to me here again.  I will be forever greatful.

    While that may work9I do not think it will) with iTunes purchased music it will not work for other music.
    - Transfer iTunes purchases by:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    - For other music you will need a third-party program like one of those discussed here.
