Cannot transfer purchased applications to iphone

hello all
I've problem with itunes sync.
here is what I'm trying to do:
purchasing application from itunes store.(anything free)
It downloads it to applications folder.
I click to myiphone, opening applications tab. choising sync all applications and clicking to sync.
there is no any error, it backing up phone and syncing. but there is no any new application in iphone.
why it's not transfering the application i've purchased?
ps. never could sync application from itunes, using iphone since 7-8months. always purchased from applestore of iphone.
(os: 3.0.1 - itunes 8.2.1.6)

Can you download directly from the app store to your iPhone?
As a last resort you could try restoring the iPhone to defaults and configuring it as a new iPhone (don't restore from backup).

Cannot Transfer Purchased Music from iPhone to iTunes

Hello,
I recently purchased a couple albums on my iPhone and downloaded them on the iPhone. When I synched my iPhone to iTunes on my PC, I expected that these purchased songs would be transferred - that's what usually happens.
In this case, the songs now appear in my iTunes library, but they're greyed out, each with the small circular sync symbol on the left side. I am trying to figure out how to get these songs into iTunes.
I've tried navigating to the iTunes store > Purchased, selecting "Recent Purchases" and I can see my songs. There is a disabled button to the right of each song that said "Downloaded"... so apparently I'm not able to download them again...
Then I tried right-clicking my iPhone (while connected to iTunes) and selecting "Transfer Purchases" - one would hope that this would do it, but alas it's not to be. The status window shows "Transferring purchases" very quickly, then back to normal (Apple icon). The songs aren't transferred.
Any suggestions on what to do next would be greatly appreciated.

I seem to have resolved it somehow while waiting on the phone for Apple support.
I turned everything on my iPhone and in iTunes related to iCould to "off". Glad Apple support had me on hold fo 45 minutes or else I'd never have found the time to fix this. Glad I saved some $$$.
Judging by some of the other threads, it's probably wise to disable iCloud stuff if you don't live in the US.

Unable to transfer purchased applications from Iphone 3gs to Computer

As my computer crashed some time ago, I reinstalled the operating system and hence all my applications have disappeared from my itunes. I have already authorised my computer again but when my iphone 3gs is plugged in, I will receive a prompt saying that the purchases could not be transferred as my computer is not authorised. Deauthorising and reauthorising my computer does not work as I have tried that a few times already. This infinite loop is killing me.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

I actually found a solution in another forum. I have two iTunes accounts. I authorized iTunes with my other account and it synced just fine. It's really kind of dumb that I have two accounts. One is simply a user name, the other account is the same user name as my e-mail address. ie: kevinsharp (1st acct.) & [email protected] Every other bit of info in the two accts are the same: cc number, address, secret question, etc.
I really thought I had only one acct but I must have created another setting up my iPad.
Hope this helps.

I bought a few songs on itunes but the songs appear in grey letters and I cannot transfer them to my iphone. I've bought/rented TV shows/movies since so there isn't an issue with my account. How can I get these newly purchased songs onto my iphone?

You made a purchase and exhausted the credit on your card before it processed. All purchases are final. Contact iTunes Store support. You need to settle up before you can purchase or download anything else.

You will also have to copy the iPod backup file to the new computer and then restore your iPod from backup using that backup. The file is located here:
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
Note: If you do not see the AppData or Application Data folders, you may need to show hidden files (Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7), or iTunes may not be installed in the default location. Show hidden files and then search the hard drive for the Backup directory
You can also make a backup on the new computer by conneting the iPod and right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and selecting BackUp. When you retore from backup sometime the app folder structure get messed up.

Transfer purchased applications from one account to another.

I recently created a new iD Apple but I can not transfer purchased applications from the old account to the new one. How do I?

Purchased apps, music, etc. are forever associated with the Apple ID used when they were purchased. You can't transfer them to another account.

Unable to transfer purchased apps from iphone to window 7

I tried all the solution which been offered from apple support but i still unable to transfer purchased apps from iphone to window 7. Please show me what to do =(

Are you trying to transfer apps to Windows 7 to USE them on Windows 7, or to back up your iPhone? iPhone apps will not run on Windows (OR Mac OS X); they only run on the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad.
To back up your iPhone, connect the phone to your computer using the cable that came with the phone and a USB port directly on the computer, not a hub. Do not sync.
Check the account you have on your iPhone by going to Settings/Store. Make sure you are logged in to this same account on your computer, and that the computer is Authorized to this account (check the Store menu).
Go to the File Menu in iTunes and choose "Transfer Purchases".
If you have a problem with any of these steps please let us know exactly what the problem is.

Deactivated all computers and reactivated 1 computer. still cannot transfer purchased music.

Deactivated all computers. Reactivated 1 computer. Cannot transfer purchased music because itunes Stores says i still have 5 computers activated already.

If you did not already, I would try quitting iTunes and launching it again (or even restarting your computer because part of iTunes may keep running even when you quit iTunes). Also, if you used the Deauthorize All command from the button on the Account Information screen (as described in my earlier reply), it's possible that Apple's server database needs to get updated in a way that is not immediate. So I would try waiting a few hours and then try to authorize your laptop again.
Question: You said you "reactivated" your laptop. Does that mean it was already one of your authorized computers before you gave the Deauthorize All command? Or is this a new computer that has never been authorized with your Apple ID (iTunes Store account)?
NOTE: Only older 128 kbps songs purchased from the iTunes Store had DRM, so if this song is a recent purchase (without DRM), it should play whether the computer is authorized for the Apple ID or not.

I cannot transfer purchased music from pc to iphone 4. Will not let me drag and drop.

I purchased an album and downloaded to my itunes on my pc. I cannot get it to transfer (copy) to my iphone 4. It will not drag and drop nor will it copy and paste. Any solutions.

You sync it as you do everything else.
Open itunes, connect iphone, select what you want to sync, sync.
If you want to drag and drop you would have to select manually manage music.
Maybe you should read the manual.
