Apps purchased on itunes not syncing with iphone

I recently purchased some apps from the App Store using iTunes but when I synced it with my iPhone it didn't work. This is the first time it's happened. All the other times I purchased apps through my macbook, they synced perfectly once I connected my iPhone, except for the ones I downloaded last night. I tried downloading them straight from the App Store in my iPhone, and when asked "You already purchased this, would you like to download it again for free?" I clicked Ok, but still nothing happened. Now I have five apps missing which I paid for and haven't even used.
Any suggestions as to what else I should try?

Similar problem. Apps downloaded to iTunes do not sync to my iPhone (Edge/2.0) despite clicking "Sync" in iTunes. The icons do not appear on the iPhone. My account shows the apps ordered in the receipt, but they only remain on my Mac.
Workaround: I had to download the apps directly (wirelessly) to the iPhone. I did not restart the iPhone.
Expected behaviour: the apps should appear on the iPhone after syncing with iTunes.

  • Itunes not syncing with iphone & apple tv not seeing itunes

    Recently installed itunes 10.4, now itunes wont sync with iphone and apple TV 2 cannot see itunes on a wired network.  The error message says Apple Mobile Device has not started - confirmed that apple mobile device did start.  With upgraded itunes apple tv cannot see the itunes library on a wired or wireless network.
    Reinstalled itunes several times now, and nothing changes.  Using pc, windows vista, outlook 2007.
    Any suggestions on how to fix these problems?

    Sure it's selcted, it's just not being stored in my iPhone's iTunes library as its stored on my macbook's iTunes library. I've dragged it to where I want it and it still won't store. I havne't needed to connect them with a cable since late last year I think with the new iTunes and updates, and you shouldn't have to. But this is frustrating, I finally found a way to get Tool on iTunes and I can't get it stored on my iPhone.

  • New apps purchased on ipad not synching with iphone 4S.  This a new problem.  No problem in the past

    Purchased new apps on ipad.  Purchases did not synch with iphone 4.  Purchases are listed in my itunes account and on my ipad, however, they are mot listed as purchased on iphone 4s.  this is a new problem.  I did not have any probelms in the past wit apps synching with iphone 4.

    It does, but I use the SoundNote App because it records audio and allows me to draw diagrams in the document. Any thoughts on syncing the SoundNote files to the mini? I am sure it can be done with a wire, but I have a disability which makes it difficult to plug and unplug cords, so the more I can do wirelessly or through the Cloud the better. Thanks for your help! I am really grateful.

  • Updated apps on iTunes not syncing with iPhone 4S

    Hello!
    I've synced the iPhone 4S with iTunes 10.5, and in iTunes there are 53 apps with available updates (I'm choosing not to update some), but in the App Store app on the phone there's a badge saying there are 87 available updates.  I've never experienced this discrepancy before.  Some of the apps in the phone's Updates section of the App Store are apps that I've already updated in iTunes.  So the sync doesn't seem to be installing them in the phone.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

  • Tracks and playlists on iTunes not syncing with iPhone 5

    I'm using windows 7 with the latest updates, the latest update of iTunes and an up to date iPhone 5.
    All I want to do is sync the playlists and tracks on iTunes to my iPhone. I'm using the 'sync music' tick box and then selecting the playlists and artists which I want to sync. This method was taking absolutely ages with 'determining tracks to sync' coming up for 15 or so minutes. After this, nothing changed on the phone or pc. Apart from some of the playlists on iTunes emptying of tracks and some playlists being deleted from the phone. Neither of which I wanted!
    So I thought I'd try to add music manually. I started by adding playlists to the phone which was taking ages but at least the job was getting done. Suddenly, certain tracks wouldn't transfer And a message would pop up on the phone telling me so and to check iTunes. I'm up to 37 tracks not transferring so far.
    So I am at a bit of a loss. I'm using all the latest up to date software and a genuine lightening cable.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks.

  • Avoid installing iTunes 11 if you are a Windows user. Calendars, etc will not sync with iPhone or iPad. Anyone have a fix?

    After installing iTunes 11.0, Outlook Calendars, etc will not sync with iPhone or iPad. Anyone have a fix?

    I'm also seeing weird sync issues since upgrading to iOS 7.  The sync issues started when I first upgraded to iOS 7 so I suspect that iOS 7 is to blame and the other system differences aren't an issue (i.e. I also upgraded to Windows 8.1 but it never worked properly when I was on Windows 8).  For me, the only way to "sync" all the smart playlists and music is to restore from backup and then the first sync seems to work.  However, I haven't tried that recently (I tried it a month back or so and it worked then) because it is ridiculous to have to restore your phone just to sync things!  Apple needs to fix the iOS 7 quality issues.

  • Some new purchased songs will not sync to IPhone.  Any ideas on resolving this?

    Some newly purchased songs will not sync to Iphone.  Any ideas to resolve this issue?

    Similar issue:
    I purchased several complete albums from the iTunes store on my laptop. Everything syncs fine with my iPhone except for two tracks from two seperate albums. I get the same error for both tracks: "iTunes could not copy ..... to the iPhone because the file could not be converted."
    From what I can tell both tracks are the same format as the other tracks on those albums - m4a (purchased AAC audio file) and wouldn't need converting (except that I have "convert higher bit rate songs to 128 kbps AAC" checked... but the other tracks convert just fine). Files play just fine on the laptop.
    I checked that everything was purchased with the same user accounts. Not sure what to try next... any ideas?
    In case it of any use here are the tracks:
    Being Single Again (track 2 from Louis C.K.'s album Hilarious)
    Letters to Magazines (track 15 from Paul F. Tompkins' album Impersonal)
    Maybe the tracks are just so funny that the iPhone is cracking up too much to transfer them over.

  • New events on Outlook 2010 not syncing with Iphone and Ipad

    I have gone through the nonsensical uninstall/reinstall every 5 restars. This time my new events or contacts on Outlook do not show on iPhone or Ipad. There is also a new confirguration where the Outlook does not separate the iCloud calendar from Outlook calendar but lists them all, then iCloud as a separate box at the bottom. I've tried dragging to that box with no success. I make about 50 appointments and reminders to my calendar each week and use all devices whether in the office or out. How dare Apple not fix this known issue.

    I just looked at topic called "Outlook 2010 - Outlook does not sync with iPhone / iTunes and used the fix suggested in that string of posts. It appears to have worked!!! My happy camper.

  • Issue with Calendar not syncing with iPhone 3g

    Issue with Calendar not syncing with iPhone 3g.
    Solution
    Create backup of your entire mailbox before starting (THIS IS IMPORTANT)
    Create offline folder (.pst file) Check windows help on how to do this for your version.
    Open folders view on Outlook
    Right click on Calendar in tree view and 'copy to' offline .pst folder
    Go back to main calendar view and delete all entries in your calendar.
    Create simple cal entry and sync test with iphone
    If this works then start dragging cal entries back from the offline folder into the main calendar then sync after each step....
    I moved events in this order
    -Yearly recurrences (ie Birthdays)
    - Monthly recurrences
    - weekly recurrences
    - Daily recurrences
    All appointments from the beginning of this year >> to the end of time!
    If all these sync then the issue is with an older cal item and you have to decide if you actually need these in you current calendar.
    I chose to leave these in the offline cal and if i need access them from there.
    If at any point the sync fails then you know you have a corrupt cal entry in the block you just transferred. Move the offending items back into the offline folder and try again in smaller chunks until you identify the offending items and delete them and manually recreate them in your real calendar.
    Also smart to run the inbox (.pst /.ost ) repair tools for your OS/Outlook version.
    Fixed so far
    XP Pro / Outlook 2008
    XP Pro /Outlook 2003

    I just updated the firmware to iPhone 2.0.1 and the syncing works great both ways.

  • Music from itunes will not sync with iphone 5

    I just upgraded from iphone 4 to 5 and didnt have time for verizon to sync my phone so i did it when i got home. the music from my itunes will not sync with my phone. it shows the music on the usage bar when the phone is plugged in but shows no content on the phone. any suggestions?

    I have a similar problem. Mine started with iTunes putting multiple versions of the same songs (whole and seemingly random albums) onto my iPod 5, but after trying to remedy that I now cannot sync any music of any sort. It took random songs off and then started getting stuck at the "waiting to apply changes" stage (as apparently many people have seen) and after trying all the things that are supposed to work I now have an iPod that doesn't have any music on it (because a lot of my music was not purchased on iTunes) and won't sync music or finish any other kind of sync.
    It seems like the "fixes" discovered so far don't work for everyone.
    My iPod is 5th gen running iOS 7.0.4 (but problem started on 7.0.3) with the latest version of iTunes, for reference.

  • Itunes keeps saying this computer already authorized, but will not sync with iphone ?

    Itunes will not sync with my IPhone 5s any longer.  It keeps saying that my PC is unauthorized.  But, when I go to authorize, it says it's already authorized, but of course, will not sync even though it's logged in and authorized.  ????  *** ?

    Usually that means you have content, such as apps or media, on the mobile device that was acquired from Apple under a different Apple ID than the one you're using with iTunes. The only way out is to remove that content, or else to sign in to the iTunes Store with the other ID.
