How do i get my apps back? after factory settings on iPod 4G?

Hello all! (i have a iPod 4G)
So, i had a few problems getting on safari and stuff, then my friend told me to downgrade to iOS 4.2 Instead of 4.3...
So i made a backup of my ipod, and then i had to install the new iOS, so i't deleted my whole iPod, and made it factory settings and stuff..... I had over 280 app's, with 50 of them bought...
Do any of you, have ANY idea on how i get my apps back? - It dident work when i tried to restore my backup file for iPod.
And i really don't wanna loose my 50 bought apps :/

Not entirely sure how it works. I mean Apple does keep a record of Apps you've downloaded, whether they were free or not - but I'm not sure if they'll charge you for it.
I would download one of the previously free Apps you wanted and check your credit card statement. If it doesn't show up, you're good to go. If they charge you for it, you might be out of luck.

How do I get my apps back after my iPhone update?

I just updated my iPhone, and there was an error message that required my phone to be restored to factory settings. It even deactivated my phone from Verizon service. After it was reactivated, only my contacts and my free apps were put back on there. I have important apps for nursing school that I paid for...one of them was $30! How do I get back what I already paid a lot for?

They should be in itunes on your computer. Just sync them back.
Certainly you did not update without making sure that any apps purchased on your iphone were transferred to itunes.
If so, then Open itunes store, click "Purchased" under "Quick Links" and redownload them.
Hope all goes well.

How can i get my apps back after an iOS 6 upgrade?, How can i get my apps back after an iOS 6 upgrade?

I just did the iOS6 upgrade, against my better judgement. Of course, after the upgrade it put my phone into recovery mode. I didn't think this would be a big deal because THIS time, I had backed up my apps.
Unfortunately, none of my apps are still on my phone. I have to re-install ALL of them. I don't even want to say how much money I sank into games and I'm cringing thinking that all of my progress has been lost.
My question is this: How do I get my back up if on iTunes, it looks like my apps are no longer even there!!!?

I had the same problem, but I just synced the iPhone to iTunes (using the cable), and all of my apps came back. They were all advanced a screen over from where they had been prior to the upgrade, so if it looks like they might not be there, keep going just to make sure.

How do I get my apps back after sync to MBP, Upgrade to iOS5?

After Sync'ing my iPhone 4 to MBP, I upgraded to iOS5 on the iPhone and Lion on the MBP. Now, my icons for iPhone apps are on the MBP. I don't see how to get them back to the iPhone. The former "Apply" button has disappeared. What is the new procedure?

Two things that I did wrong:
1) I was in iTunes, clicked on the left navigation bar for Apps and expected to see something like "Apply". This was incorrect. I needed to click on my iPhone under Device in the Left Nav bar, and then, click on Apps in the top nav listing. Then I could see my apps. And,
2) I could see that my apps had actually sync'd but they inexplicably sinc'd to a 3rd/4th/and 5th screen leaving the second screen nearly empty, so I thought they had never sync'd at all.
So, I'm back in business. Thanks to replyer.

Re-sync the contacts from the supported application you use on the computer, or from the cloud service that you may be using, i.e. iCloud, Gmail, etc.

You will have to obtain earlier, compatible, versions of the applications either from an older part of the Time Machine backup or from the original sources.

How can I get my apps back after recovery and installing ios 8?

I have updated my phone a couple of hours ago. Luckily all my photos, contacts, notes, messages... they are all here. But I don't have any of my old apps. Where can I restore them? Please don't tell me I have to download one by one again Most of them were free anyway, except for Whatsapp. And I tried going to app store, then clicking purchased and i don't find any apps there either. Please help?

Open iTunes. Connect your phone. Select your phone when you see it under Devices heading in iTunes' sidebar. In the main window select the Apps tab. All the apps you have stored in iTunes will be displayed. You will also have a list of the installed and uninstalled apps showing in a scrollable list. Scroll through the list and select all those you want installed. Then sync your phone using the Sync button.

How do I get my apps back on my ipod after I update the ipod?

How do I get all of my apps back after I update my ipod touch, the warning box says they will all be removed from the ipod during the update process? Thank you , I am new to this

You should be transferring all apps purchased on the ipod to your computer regularly, especially before any update.
If you have failed to do this, then do so now. File>Devices>Transfer Purchases
You then sync them to the ipod from your computer.

AT&T just "helped"me and wiped my phone. how do I get my apps back?

Really two questions here: what happened to my phone, and how do I get my apps back.'
1. yesterday, my phone started showing the "connect to itunes" and emergency call only screen. I saw some advice in the forums about connecting it to a computer, but had never done so, so didn't think it applied to me. What caused this to happen??
2. I called AT&T, who had me download itunes on my work computer (can't get up the stairs to home computer after knee surgery, specifically asked if this would damage anything on my phone and was told no. after downloading latest itunes and connecting to this computer, all my apps, photos, contacts, everything is gone. Is there anything I can do to get that stuff back? Kids' 8th bday phontos on there...

Not sure what happened but whatever happened was a major problem if the only option was connecting your iPhone to iTunes which requires restoring your iPhone with iTunes.

AT&T handles problems with their network, which the problem with your iPhone had nothing to do with. It would have been better to call AppleCare for this instead.
In regards to iTunes content, an iPhone can be synced or manually managed with an iTunes library on a single computer only, and photos can be transferred to an iPhone from a single computer only.
When transferring iTunes content and photos from another computer, all iTunes content and photos transferred from a different computer will be erased from the iPhone first with a warning message provided indicating this will occur - the first warning message provided is your iPhone has been synced with an iTunes library on a different computer.
An exception to the warning message provided would be if restoring an iPhone with iTunes is required, which apparently was the case in your situation. Restoring an iPhone with iTunes completely erases the iPhone first followed by the firmware being re-installed. If this is done with the computer you normally sync your iPhone with, you have the option to restore your iPhone from your iPhone's backup which must be followed by a sync to re-transfer your selected iTunes content and any photos from your computer to your iPhone. None of this data is available with the computer used to restore your iPhone.

I downloaded 4.0.1 and lost all my Yahoo toolbar apps but still have the Yahoo search bar. How can I get the apps back? Refreshing the "gear" does nothing.

I have Windows XP and downloaded Firefox 4.0.1. After it was installed 5/7/11, I noticed all my Yahoo search bar apps were missing. Rebooting did not help. Neither did the "gear" on the toolbar next to the yellow Yahoo search box. Internet Explorer browser still shows them. How can I get the apps back in Firefox?

I have Windows 7, the Yahoo toolbar has been working fine until today now all my apps are missing.
Refreshing the toolbar does nothing.
