How do I get my applications back into iTune library

Just upgraded PC to Windows 7. Got my music libray 75% back, but not i have an issue with iPhone. Over 100 applications on phone, but can't get them to show on PC iTunes. How do I get library updated or do i have to download them all again. Also why is it so hard to get any answers from Apple. This has taken me 20 minutes to get here. Frustrating, why not just have a good old fashioned help desk Apple? Maybe we should be charging Apple for our (your) experise in solving our problems with their items.

On your computer, itunes running, do the following:
1. Disable auto sync when an ipod/iphone is connected in preferences, which in windows is under the edit menu.
2. Connect your phone, do not sync at this point.
3. Go up to Store>Authorize this Computer.
4. Then go up to File>Transfer Purchases
Your purchased apps & music will be transfered to your itunes library.

    I have my photos in  iPhoto but my iPhoto library is empty.When clicked message reads could not be opened image capture cannot open files in the photo library format. How do I get my photos back into my library?

    When what is clicked?
    There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 9 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Include things like:
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For example, if you have a problem with exporting, then explain by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted? - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.

  • How can I get my music back into iTunes after erasing my disk?

    I had to reinstall Windows XP, erasing everything on the hard disk. I had saved the music files with backup software, so I now have them back. But iTunes won't add them to my library. I tried importing songs from a new CD to see where iTunes put those files, and then copying an album folder into the same location. But Windows wouldn't copy the files inside the foder. Nearly all the songs were originally taken from CDs in my collection, and the songs are still on my iPod Nano.

    Wow,
    Wonder why XP won't let you copy files?, perhaps you used a different user name?
    Or these are the old DRM versions of the songs? You should be able to log into your iTunes account and authorize the computer and iTunes should recognize the songs.
    Well since you have the iPod Nano, you can head over to iLounge and ask them what current third party software works to move your iPod Nano music back to iTunes.
    Hope that works out for you

  • How do I get my tabs back into the main window?

    I've had a problem with an add-on displaying a small extra window every time I open a session for some months now: I know you're supposed to try disabling and re-enabling every add-on you've got to find out which one is responsible, but this is a work computer and with all the add-ons I have, it would take too long, so I've just closed the extra window every time and got on with my work. However, for some reason today my forty-odd tabs have all opened in the small extra window, which has no tab bar, navigation bar or menu button. How do I get my tabs back into the main window of Firefox, or alternatively get that window to behave like a normal Firefox window so I can use it?

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

  • I my harddrive with my photo library went bad, but I have the photos on my ipad, ipod and iphone.  How to I get those photos back into iphoto on my macbook?

    The external drive with my photo library went bad, but I have the photos on my ipad, ipod and iphone.  How to I get those photos back into iphoto on my macbook?

    Are the photos you want to send back to your mac on your iPad, iPod, iPhone saved to the camera roll? If you have photos in other albums (not camera roll) share them to the camera roll.
    Then connect your device via USB and lauch iPhoto. You will see your device as a camera in iPhoto.  Import those photos like you would import from a camera.

  • How do i get icloud contacts back into Outlook contacts?  My outlook contacts got wiped off in a pst export.

    How do i get icloud contacts back into Outlook contacts?  My outlook contacts got wiped off in a pst export.
    I think i want to tell icloud to sync with Outlook and make icloud the controlling account.  NOT outlook to iclout.  there are 6325 contacts in icloud.  only 12 in outlook.  about 10 days ago i had same amount in OL and icloud.  i had to restore my computer PC.  My iphone is correct.  My PC/ Outlook i not. thanks for any help.

    Hello Otienogo,
    Try the below steps on your iPhone,
    Go to settings>iCloud and Login with your Apple Id.
    Contacts should be on, click on it to turn it off and choose keep (even if it shows you no contacts)
    When the process is done go ahead and turn on contacts again, choose merge.  All your contacts should show up if you had a previous backup to icloud.
    Hope this helps you.

  • How can I get my materials back into EBP 5.5?

    I have executed an initial replication of a single material into a clean EBP 5.5 (SRM 5.0) , i.e. no product master has ever existed
    After changing MATERIAL filters in R3AC1 and afterwards replicating using R3AS I managed to get more materials into the EBP 5.5 but found out that my filter settings had to be changed. So i deleted all product master (COM_PRODUCT_DELETE_ALL) succesfully changed my filter and ran R3AS but no materials was replicated... I have checked SMQ1 and SMQ2 which were empty. I have even tried to go back to the starting point of replicating just the one material and still no luck (even synchronized filter with R/3). I have gone through a number of notes. I have gone into SMWP and there are some red lights but e.g. 'Adapter Status Information' and 'System Settings' looks fine.
    How can I get my materials back into EBP 5.5? Is it a problem of changing filters and doing intial replications continuosly?
    While writing the above I have just now created a new material in ECC 6.0 and set up the filter to replicate just this new material and it was succesfully replicated to EBP 5.5 with product master! I guess something has to be cleaned up before I can get my materials back into EBP 5.5??? How???

    I managed to replicate all my materials with the broad range filter definition after working my way through all the errors in SMW01. However, I still don't understand why I couldn't make an initial replication of a single material (previously deleted)... anyway it is working now
    Thanks for all the help!

  • I have music on my iPad, but I can no longer find it in itunes on my mac.  How do I get those CDs back in my library?

    I have music on my iPad, but I can no longer find it in itunes on my mac.  How do I get those "CDs" back in my library?  I cannot listen to them on my Mac or put them on another device!

    Thanks a lot!  After I sent the above post, I tried that.  It worked a little.  Some of the ones that I Purchased would not come up.  I followed instructions from Apple about going to Purchased and downloading them again, but ran into another problem.  They are greyed on my Mac and they will not download again.  It says to click on the iCloud beside them, but there is not one visible.  iCloud is set up, at least I thought it was.  I am sure there is a simple explanation, but I am missing it!

    Unless you subscribe to iTunes Match , Apple does not keep a backup of your iTunes library.  Even then it is not the library as it exists on your computer, but some version of the media, and only media files, not playlists.  Even then not all media are definitely available since anything removed from the iTunes Store since you purchased it is not available for re-download.

    Using Match as a backup for iTunes - https://discussions.apple.com/message/17039436#17039436
    In your case it sounds like you will have to obtain non iTunes purchases from their original source or a backup you may have made at some time in the past.

  • I lost my iphone, how do i get my contact back on itune?

    lost my iphone, how do i get my contact back on itune? Is there somewhere where i can have it?

    iTunes does not store contacts. iTunes serves as the sync conduit for syncing contacts between your iPhone and a supported address book app on your computer where your contacts should be. Not a good idea to depend on an iPhone or any cell phone alone for contact info, which can be lost or stolen.
    Contacts are also included with the iPhone's backup which is updated by iTunes as the first step during the iTunes sync process. You can try using a 3rd party app such as this one to try extracting the data from your iPhone's backup.

  • HT1725 I downloaded an album and all of the tracks will play about 3/4 of the song then stop and play the next song.  I went to itunes store and it said the songs fully downloaded. So how do I get the full song into my library?

    I downloaded an album and all of the tracks will play about 3/4 of the song then stop and play the next song.  I went to itunes store and it said the songs fully downloaded. So how do I get the full song into my library?

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • How can I get my music from my Itunes library after I replaced my hard drive?

    How can I get my music from my Itunes library (purchased and downloaded (CD)) after I replaced my hard drive?  Same account name.  My other computer see's old and new music.  Can purchace new songs.  They show up by themselves.  Can connect IPOD and old songs show up.  Seem's like they are defined as different accounts.

    They will only be where you put them.
    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.  Use your backup copy to put everything back.
