How to re-download apps to 3GS iPhone?
My Step-Mom just exchanged her old iPhone 3GS to a new iPhone 3GS. She did not backup her phone to iTunes. The new phone is completely "raw", is there a way she can automatically download all of her apps to her new iPhone? I was told in another forum she needs to download them one by one. She has over 4 pages of apps. Is there a simpler way, maybe taking the phone into an Apple store?
Please let me know.
Thank you.
All iTunes content that was on her old 3GS should be in her iTunes library on her computer including 3rd party apps. Sync Apps should have been selected under the Apps tab for her iPhone sync preferences with iTunes. With this selected, after an app is downloaded with the iPhone, the app would have been copied to her iTunes library on her computer the first time she synced her iPhone with iTunes after doing so. The same applies with music.
If her iTunes library does not include any of her apps, she didn't have Sync Apps selected for her iPhone sync preferences and the only way to get the apps back is to re-download all apps one by one - with iTunes on her computer. Follow this by selecting Sync Apps under the Apps tab for her iPhone sync preferences with iTunes and select the apps in the window below she wants installed on her iPhone followed by a sync. She will not be charged again for a purchased app as long as she uses the same iTunes account to re-download the app that was used to purchase the app originally.
An Apple Store cannot change or do anything about this.

How can I download apps on my iphone and it is a version 4.2.1?
Go to the iTunes App Store, sort the applications by release data, and look at the older ones; these are likely to be compatible with iOS 4.2.1. If the iPhone is a 3GS or newer model, it can be connected to iTunes on a computer and updated to 6.1.3.

How to install downloaded app on to iPhone
How do I install a downloaded app onto the iPhone?
When you get an app from the App Store, it automatically downloads and installs. The installation process is not separate from the downloading process. To download an app, simply go to the App Store and tap the price of the app. That button will turn into "Install" or "Buy App", and tapping that button will start downloading the app.
The app will appear on your Home screen. Flick between the pages to find it. If you can't find it, use Spotlight search to find it. If you are running iOS 7, pull down on the apps to reveal a search bar; if you are running iOS 6 or earlier, flick to the left of the leftmost Home screen page to find a search bar. -
How can i download apps for my iPhone 3G?

can anyone advice me?
Regards
T.BOBPlease do not contribute to electronic waste and discard a device that works perfectly fine. There are hundreds of thousands of apps for iOS 4.2.1. Apple does not make it easy to find them, for obvious reasons. A Google search for
"angry birds" "requires iOS" -4.3 -5.0 -5.1 -6.0 -6.1 -"5 or later" site:itunes.apple.com/us/
will give your son a choice of over 2,000 angry birds apps. -

how to enable my apple id on iTunes? Somehow its disabled and I can no longer download Apps on my IPhone ??
Depending on why it's been disabled you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
Or you might need to contact Apple : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
If it then works on your computer's iTunes but not your phone then try logging out of your account on the phone by tapping on the id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it -

How do i move apps from my iPhone 3GS to my new 4S?
how do i move apps from my iPhone 3GS to my new 4S?
To backup your phone (3GS), plug it to your PC, when Itunes opens up, you will see your phone on the left hand side, right click on it and do a back up.
When you set up your 4S it will ask if you want to restore as new/ from a backup from Itunes or icloud. Select restore from back up then plug your phone to your PC and then let Itunes back up your phone. -

Hi Mahendra,
If you have the was installed on your local machine or if you have remote access to the machine where the was is installed you could also deploy your application using the J2EE Visual Administrator tool .
After you connect through Visual Admin expand the node Server->Services-Deploy->Runtime . Choose Deploy and Start .In the File field, specify the application EAR file . You can also browse to it in the file system.
If some additional class files are necessary for loading and deploying or updating the application, modify the list of Additional Class Path . Choose OK .
The Deploy Dialog Box appears . If you have to make any last minute changes do it here . Else directly select Ok . The successful deployment is marked with green on the status bar .
Hope this helps you in your endeavour .
Regards,

HT2731 how do i download information from my iphone to itunes?
how do i download information from my iphone 4s to my computer
What sort of information ? You can copy purchases from iTunes to you computer's iTunes via File > Transfer Purchases. For documents/files in apps then it will depend upon what the apps that they are in support e.g. transfer via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc. Or you do mean something else ?
