Downgraded to ios7.1.2 all apps gone.

Downgrades to ios 7.1.2. All my apps are gone, expected that. never backed up to a computer, just to the cloud. Can't find backups in iTunes. Supposed to be there but I can't find it. Thought I could just download all my apps from the App Store like you do if you deleted them, but nothing is there. Am I screwed? Same with my kindle books but I think that's another question. How do I find the cloud back ups and can I tell if they are version 7.1.2.. Help please.

After the firmware installed and you were at the the "Hello" page and you swiped the "slide to setup" (and prompted to choose language, region, wifi network, enable location services), next you should've chosen "restore from iCloud backup" or "restore from iTunes backup", the "welcome to your iPad" screen comes up next, choose "restore from this backup" from the file with the date and time that is most recent file you want to restore from, click "continue". That's all there is to it. I'm not sure how you bypassed that step?

All apps gone after forced restart of iPad

Hello,
I was just developing a bit with my iPad and after the debugger got hang I had to restart my iPad by holding down the home button and the lock button for some seconds.
After the iPad was booted up again, i noticed that all apps (expect the built in ones) where gone!!!
Unfortionatly my last iTunes backup was a long time ago (I know... i should have done it more often...)
But when I look at iTunes I can see a lot of "Other" space used (more that 10GB) so I think this is probably the space used by my apps...
It would just be really uncool, because I was for example using it a lot for taking notes (Noteshelf) and that would all be gone...
Any help is appreciated!!!
Thanks a lot

This did not help
I tried to backup some of my files with PhoneView and iExplorer but could not find anything... But iTunes shows me that there is a lot of space used for "other stuff"...
Any chance I can restore my files... I really want to have my Noteshelf drawings back!!!

In the Advanced tab of iTunes' Preferences what is the time and date of the backup you used for the restore? It sounds like you have a backup that does not contain your dat and such. It may be that when you were having trouble updating a backup was made. Looking at the date might provide some information.

Update, reset, Backup - all Apps gone

Hello,
I started the update on my wife's iphone5 connected to the PC with itunes. It stopped after 5 minutes. Iphone wanted the connections to itunes. After lot unsuccessful tries, i decided to set it back its factory settings. Then i restored it from the backup. All apps are gone. Everytime i connect the iphone to the PC, itunes cant recognize the iphone and wants to install as new or restore from saved backup.
I really dont know what to do!

To redownload the apps you need to be using the same Apple ID that you used to purchase the apps.
On the phone you can use the App Store app and find the purchased apps then download them. You will not be charged for downloading the apps again as long as you are using the same Apple ID that you used to purchased them the first time.
On the computer, normally iTunes stores a copy of all the apps you purchased. Start iTunes on your computer, connect your phone, select your phone in iTunes, and select the Apps tab in the row of tabs in the right window.
The apps on your iPhone will be listed under the Apps tab. Select the apps you want on the phone and click Apply or Sync.

Unable to sync? If i restore all apps gone?

When i try to sync i get over capacity problem, and i havent transferred all my apps to itunes, and sometimes i get cannot be synced, so what the **** am i suppose to do, if i restore i lose apps and have to repurchase them seriously? this is this a joke, is this how apple makes their money?, surely their must be a log on the account so i dont have to re purchase

Yeah, this is how Apple makes their money - especially when the app developer gets 70% of their chosen sales price for a paid app, and they house and distribute all free apps at no charge.
All apps on your iPhone should be in your iTunes library for a number of reasons with this being one of them. With Sync Apps selected under the Apps tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes, after downloading an app with your iPhone the app will be copied to your iTunes library automatically the first time you sync your iPhone with iTunes after doing so. One of the reasons why it is a good idea to sync your iPhone with iTunes on a regular basis and often.
You can re-download a paid app and you won't be charged again for the paid app as long as you use the same iTunes account to re-download the app that was used to purchase the app originally.

HT4623 when iOS7 was installed all apps purchased disappeared; now when I go to app store I can open app, but cannot get app to install onto the screen; How can this be accomplished?

When i0S7 was installed on iphone all purchased apps disappeared. Now when I go to app store I can open app, but cannot get app to install on phone. How can I get apps installed back onto iphone screen?

Press your home button, then scroll the home screen all the way over to the right. I found all my purchased apps were moved to a different home screen. Might be a similar issue.. let us know what you found out!!
Cheers.

Syncronised ipod now all apps gone

I have syncronised my IPODTouch with my PC in order to tranfer all my App's
to my PC .The aim was to delete the App's on the Ipod and save them on my PC .
At the end of the sync. a messege was shown saying that my PC isn't activated
and that it hasn't saved the App's . But I had activated my PC just before
the sync. !!Now I don't have any App's on my PC or on my Ipod !!!And I had lots of App's!! What went wrong!!I desperately need help because I have to also backup my music and my videos because my Ipod needs to go back´to the dealer for repair!!!!

The licensing of Purchased applications allows for them be downloaded over again, see this article for details: How to redownload purchased applications from the App Store

App store app will not show "all apps up to date." Does anyone know if this is a result of downloading ios7 on an iphone 4?

2 days ago I downloaded ios7 onto my iphone 4. Every time I update an app, that app stays in the window that is supposed to say "all apps are up to date." I've tried all the fixes, including turning the phone off and on; signing in and out of the app store; resetting the phone etc. Is this a glitch in the ios7 system? Is anyone else out there experiencing this problem? Does anyone have a solution? Thanks

I know VLC makes an iPad player (or used to anyway, they might have removed it for some reason), but the real champion when it comes to ripped media is CineXplayer. I'm not sure how or why, but he offers superb play-back on almost all my content.
He does sometimes have trouble with audio-codecs... and on my first gen-ipad he lags on 1080p playback. But I think that's a hardware limitation due to the tiny RAM chip they put in it, more so than a software limitation.

Hey linfrommi,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are having trouble locating some application after the update to iOS 7. To troubleshoot this issue, let’s reset the home screen layout of your iPhone, which should move all of your applications to the second “page”:

How do I get more space to update my iPhone 4 to iOS7? I am currently on iOS 6.1.3 with 6.3 GB capacity, 1.4 GB available AFTER deleting all apps, photos, music, and videos, and I need 3.8 GB.

Update using iTunes on your computer. The space requirement does not apply because of how the process works via iTunes as opposed to over the air.

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

Updated iPad to iOS5. Now all apps are gone!

I updated the OS on my iPad 1st gen to 5. I got the restore error like many people have gotten. I tried again and it succesfully updated to 5. When I finally got through the initial setup, I noticed all the apps I purchased were gone! I did a restore and it was the same state. So, I restored from a backup I did yesterday. All my apps are still gone.
Any ideas?

First of all: before you upgrade, always make a backup of your device in iTunes!
The following happens when upgrading to iOS 5 (this is different from previous system upgrades!):
The installer creates automatically a restore file
Then a clean system is installed on your device, all your data will be removed. Don't panic, this will be ok later on.
When the os is updated you get a few configuration questions (i.e. language settings).
At one point you're given a choice:
configure device as a new device
restore from iCloud
restore from iTunes
Unless you want to start all over, choose the third option.
All your settings will be restored at first and your device will restart.
Now comes the tricky bit: After restart your device will work fine as if the process is finished. i.e. you can send and recieve mails. At this point you will not see the apps you had installed, also you're photo's and movies will not be on your device. (I was fooled buy this one at first too)
Do not disconnect your device or quit iTunes! In the background iTunes is still restoring the rest of your data. (Switch to iTunes and you'll see the progress.) This can take some time, depending on how much apps you had installed. One by one you'll see apps appearing on your device. You can't use the untill the whole restore is finished.
When all apps are back, your photo's and video's will be restored.
So please be patient. It took me more than an hour to get everything back in place.
The only small annoyance: there are new Apple-apps added to the homescreen. They're 'pushed' to the second screen by your own homescreen apps, leaving your second screen almost empty. Now you only have to rearrange the apps on the second screen.
If all turns out bad, because you unplugged your device too early, go back to your restore file you made yourself before upgrade. (You did do that, didn't you?) and start the process all over.

HT4527 Shared, transfered, backed up, synced, but all apps are gone...?

Hi,
We have 1 iPad, 1 iPhone, and 3 iPods that need to be moved from old-pc to new-pc.. So I:
- read forums, faqs, etc.
- authorize new-pc
- set up sharing and copy everything from old-pc to new-pc
- transrfer purchases from iPad to new-pc
- do a back up of iPad to new-pc
- upgraded iPad on new-pc
- sync iPad to new-pc
Then, much to my dismay, I see that no apps are present. Music and movies are there, so are some personal settings, but no AppStore apps. "A-ha!", I thinks to myself..."I'll restore from backup!" After which iPad has reverted it's sync to old-pc.
So I curse for a bit and re-sync iPad to new-pc. But all apps are still gone, and the only way to get them back on iPad is to download them from iStore (or whatever the h*** it's called) but all personal app-info is gone.
Please help. How do I transfer iThing ownership from old-pc to new-pc without losing half of everything?
Thanks, oh so very much.
Splats.

Have you tried this...
Reset all settings
Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.
