Apps on iTouch, gone from iMac

iTunes made a mess of my music, so I deleted the music library, and rebuilt it from backups. Now it works the way that it should. However, my apps on my iTouch (3rd gen) exist and work on the iTouch, but the files are missing from the iMac. B&W icons exist (all the same) for the existence of an app on the iMac, but clicking on it says there is no file. Those files must have gone with the music? Syncing the two completes without error, but still there are no files on the iMac. I do have Time Machine running, so if I know where to look, and where to put them, I may be able to recover my apps files on my iMac. Else, I can copy the files from the iTouch to the iMac, but have no idea how to do it.
Any advice would be much appreciated! - Andy

I tried that and it does nothing. My menu selection is File > Transfer Purchases from "iTouch 64". But I purchased this particular music in from the Gateway computer, not from the iPod. So when I do click on that selection nothing happens. There's a quick synch but no change to the status of this particular file.

  • ITunes and App Store icons gone from home screen

    The iTunes and App Store icons have disappeared from my home screen (and no...I did not inadvertently delete them). Any ideas on how to restore them (and the links)? Thanks...

  • Apps icon gone from iPhone

    I let my friend play with my iPhone the other day and now the "apps" icon is gone from my menu. Is there anyway to get it back? I have no idea what he did to get rid of it.

    It cannot be deleted. First, swipe through your home screens was it simply moved to another home screen? If not, your friend set Restrictions, and probably a passcode as well. Go to Settings > General > Restrictions. If it asks for a passcode, Restrictions are ON. Restrictions can be used to 'hide' the icons for Safari, YouTube, Camera, iTunes, and the App Store. You'll need to get that code from your friend. The only other way to turn them off is to perform a Restore in iTunes, not from backup (meaning you'll lose all your data and settings).

  • IMac, just had repaired new Harddrive erase deverything,wheres my iPhoto n all those apps, i know the gone from hard drive but i thought they would transfer from my phone

    iMac, just had repaired new Harddrive erase deverything,wheres my iPhoto n all those apps, i know the gone from hard drive but i thought they would transfer from my phone? HELP ?

    Those Apps would not transfer from your iPhone because the iPhone apps are iOS 5 based and the iMac apps are OSX based.  They are not the same Apps.  You will need to transfer the OSX based apps over from your external hardware backup you have kept up, Or you can reinstall the OSX based apps from their original DVD's.
    Hope this helps

    Then restore via iTunes. The iOS device will be erased. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

    I do backup with iCloud.  I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud. 
    I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
    I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever.  Is that right?
    In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
    If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

  • I downloaded Lion from the app store on to my iMac and did not save it to a thumb before installing.  Do I have to buy it again to install on my Macbook Pro and iPad or is there another way to do that?

    All my electronics are about a year old.   iPad is Model MB293LL (4.2.1) only wi-fi - no phone.
    MacBook Pro is  OSX 10.6.8 Build 10K549.  Also have an AT&T iPhone that I basically use as a Palm, since I changed carriers.
    Thank you for your help. 
    ps: I got an error message and it looks like this did not get posted the first time.  2nd try.

    Open the Mac App Store on your MacBook Pro
    Hold the Option key and click on “Purchases”
    Hold the Option key and click on “OS X Lion” from the purchased app list
    “Installed’ should now say “Install” which allows you to download OS X Lion.
    This assumes you are using the same Apple ID on both computers.
    Lion does not get installed on an iPad. It runs iOS.

  • Ive just got a new iPhone4 and I am trying to get the App's ie games from my iPhone3 onto the 4 and retain the same levels that I have reached on the 3, The Apps have gone onto the 4 but its making me re-start everything from level 1?

    Ive just got a new iPhone4 and I am trying to get the App's ie games from my iPhone3 onto the 4 and retain the same levels that I have reached on the 3,
    The Apps have gone onto the 4 but its making me re-start everything from level 1?
    Ive paid $$ for the games and then more $$ within the games via iTunes for in game purchases and desperatly want the games on the 4 with the levels that I have reached on the 3!
    Can anyone help!! Please!!!! My Smurfs and Animals are starving Hahahaha

    Mate, it's good to hear that you have gotten the iPhone 4 but sorry to burst your bubbles. Not all games can have the "saved" data ported over.
    Normally when you save a game in iPhone, the memory used is in the flash memory of the device. Those that can be ported over, reason is due to the data being saved over the air and when you logged in on a new device, it recognises you via the userID.
    Maybe you can try to backup your iPhone 3, and restore the file onto your iPhone 4. Not too sure if that would brick your phone though.

  • I have Imac (OSX10.6.8) and 6 days of emails that were in my inbox have disappeared. They've also gone from gmail server and my back up hard drive. But if I look at "All Mail" on my Iphone the emails are there!! Have I got settings wrong somewhere?

    "One of the benefits of Match, right?  Saving hard drive space."
    I would not use iTunes Match as a backup. There are too many bugs and I don't think that's what they intended it to be anyway. The main advantage of using it is to make your music available on OTHER devices, not to replace the music on your original computer.

    Hi Suzy Q,
    I can send and receive calls.
    I get "messaging stopped" when doing a lot of texts.
    Texts come up "ghosted" meaning they have the text on the bottom and a transparent one overlaid  on top. they then become one. But I get the ghosting most of the time when I go into a message from a contact to send a text.
    When I go to call logs or text logs, the numbers come up first, and then then the names pop up randomly, meaning not in order down the page, until they are all shown. lots of lag time.
    It runs slow.
    I have 5 apps on here. I should be able to have a  lot of apps on here, and play music, and have files, and...and....and.
    I can get online but doing a Google search, when the page with the choices comes up, it is blurred and I have to tap on the screen for it to become clear and readable.
    When online and scrolling, it hitches sometimes/lags/gets stuck then unstuck
    I get VZWAVS has stopped. (not sure if those are the right letters)
    The status bar that is supposed to be gray with the new update, goes back and forth between green--the old os--to gray. And I have found no continuity with when I get green or when I get gray.
    I get a black screen on occasion.
    sometimes the proximity sensor doesn't work.
    sometimes when I have my bluetooth on and have "hands free mode" on, I get the a text message read through the headset and also through the handset.
    I soft reboot often--turn it off wait a bit and

  • How do I copy Aperture app from iMac to Macbookwith different ID

    how do I copy Aperture app from iMac to Macbookwith different ID ?

    Do you mean
    " Macbook with different Apple ID "   ?
    If you bought Aperture on your iMac from the App Store using a different AppleID, sign into the Apple Store on your MacBook with exactly that Apple ID.  (Use the "Store" menu. First sign out and then sign in with the other ID)
    Then reload the "Purchased" page. You should see now Aperture ready for download.  Install it.
    Then sign out of the store and back in with your regular AppleID on that Mac.  If you are notified of updates, you will have to switch between AppleIDs again to install the update.

  • I have an iPhone 4s. Today I went on to my calendar app to find everything deleted from it. Then I went to make a phone call and every single one of my contacts has gone from my phone. Can I get them back and how?

    Whoa whoa no need to go restoring stuff yet, once you've done that check to verify you have done what Overlook2011  IF that doesn't work for calendars ensure your default account for calendars is set to iCloud and in calendars that it is told to "Show all calendars"

  • How do i get apps from iMac to air

    how do I get apps from imac to air. Just purchased an air

    There are several ways to do it. The 'cleanest' way is to install them fresh on your Air. Anything you purchased from the Mac App store, you can install on your Air by logging into the App store with the same Apple ID.

  • HT1689 App store app is gone from my phone. How do I get it back?

    My App Store app is gone from my phone and I cannot download it from Apple.com. What is my problem?

    If you can't find it on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find it via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then is it hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > Installing Apps being set 'off' ?
    If not then have you tried a reset to see if you can find it after the iPhone has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.
