How to restore Apps from icloud backup

Hi,
My first post here. I did some searching but couldn't find what I need so I am trying to ask it now directly.
My iPhone 3GS is shutting down when phone is busy like trying to open camera, trying to play a game, trying to check an email. It shuts down and when I tried to power On it says battery is drained. But when I charge, it will power on and battery is back to where it was when it shut down.
Did significant reading around here in community and i did see lots of suggestions to reset my phone.
First try, I backup my phone in iCloud (while charging otherwise it wont finish). Then I reset my phone and select reset all (erase all data)
Then I tried to restore from iCloud backup.
Result: problem still persist on a newly restored iPhone.
Second try. I reset once again and choose start as new.Seems I can now check my email without shutting down.
Now to my question. How can I restore my apps from my icloud back up one by one.I only want to restore apps that carries my important files like images, FileApp.
Question 2: Do I have to buy and pay all my app again?
Thanks

That is really sad . I guess I have to restore from backup and do all manual copies then reset again to make a fresh start.
I am once an iPhone fanatic that won't consider changing to other phones but now it seems that I have to reconsider.
I mean, it's great but "all or nothing" method is what apple is implementing from day 1. Like a basic example of iTune contents. Why cant you choose what to put on your computer/phone. Why does it has to delete all phone contents.
Anyway.. Thanks. At least now I know what to do now.
Kudos

    Is there anyway to restore the notes back to my phone & new computer from my last icloud back up?

    the harder solution may require this to help you show the hidden files so to recover deleted notes on iPhone...
    If you synced your iPhone with itunes.
    to restore from a previous backup, be sure to go into iTunes before you
    connect your iPod Touch or iPhone and set iTunes > preferences > devices
    and check “prevent iPods and iPhones from syncing automatically.This ensures we don’t erase the previously stored backup.

  • How to restore a deleted iCloud backup? I deleted the backup to free up the 5 GB free storage and now on my iPhone some of my Contacts are missing a phone

    How to restore a deleted iCloud storage backup?
    I deleted it all to free up the free 5 GB storage and now on my iPhone 5s some of my Contacts are missing a phone # info and some of the Contacts are missing entirely. Thank you.

    I used this to restore my deleted notes from Time Machine, hope this helps others
    closed Notes,
    turned WiFi off,
    entered finder/go+option/ to 'get to library':  /Library/Containers/com.apple.Notes/Data/Library/Notes/
    entered TM and selected the 3 files/ hit restore/ keep both (just to make sure, then I deleted the newer file, not the 'restored' file when this worked out)
    opened notes and my deleted notes were back so I copied my notes into pages as a backup,
    turned on WiFi and the notes disappeared!
    replaced my restored notes by copy/pasting my backups into notes/iCloud.... 
    notes/mac would not show across iCloud.... don't remeber this being an issue prior to Mavericks when 'all' notes were selected?
    Apple needs to hear from us so they can fix glitches like this.  TM was created for instances like this, hopefully this is just an oversite.  Pass this along to Apple Feedback/iCloud/bug.  If enough of us flag such issues, hopfully it's addressed on the next update.
    Dear Apple, this should be much easier than it is. We should be able to open Notes, go into Time Machine, and restore anything regardless if it's on my Mac or on the cloud.

  • Trying to restore ipod from icloud backup "trouble connecting to the server"

    I'm attempting to restore my son's iPod Touch from his iCloud backup. It's connecting to WiFi just fine, then I tell it that I need to restore from iCloud backup, and it asks me to sign him in.
    When I sign him in, it seems to accept it, then goes to the "Birthday" screen and asks for his birthday. When I put in his correct birth date, it then takes me to the "Terms and Conditions" screen, and I accept that.
    The very next thing I see is a popup that says "Could Not Sign In. There was a problem connecting to the server."
    Every time. No explanation of what this means.
    I apologize if this has been answered already, but I've googled it and searched it in these forums for days with no real luck.
    Anyone who can help, I appreciate it!

    After two hours I learned that they "birthday" question is a creating a bug on itunes account server. In order to fix this problem you will need to go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and put another birthday date that is not the original birthday date you submitted. Pick a birthday that allows you to update your account. As soon as you do that and save it to your account the problem seems to be fixed.

  • How to delete apps from icloud

    How does one remove unwanted apps from iCloud. (using a iPad)

    when I go to delete my apps there they are... in the purchased section of the apps store, so if it wasn't in iCloud then I didn't need the storage... even tho it kept saying I didn't have enough room.
    When/where do you see this message?
    Either your iPad or your computer did not have enough room and iTunes would have told you this.
    Perhaps you should look up the word "extortion"...

  • How do I restore notes from icloud backup to imac?

    Somehow my "notes" folder and all contents disappeared from my Mail app on my imac, but the current version is on my iphone and icloud (notes on iphone set to sync to cloud). An older version (15 days old) is also in TimeMachine, but I'd much rather restore from the current notes in icloud.
    How do I restore my current notes folder from icloud (or iphone) to my imac? 
    I don't seem to find the instructions in any other post. BTW, searching for words from the notes in spotlight showed no results on my imac, and it is not in the trash.
    Thank you for any suggestions that could work.

    I believe in Notes it has an indication what will be shown, in the upper left corner of the app see if there is a spot where you can indicate on Mac, iCloud, etc...I apologize, I'm not on my Mac at the moment and I'm writing from memory. Most of the iCloud based apps (Calendar, Contacts, etc...) have this setting in the upper left of the app.

  • Can't restore apps from iCloud

    I managed to successfully restore my new phone from iCloud... but after the restore it then attempts to download my apps from the app store, and I get a message "some of the items on your order are not available in your region". The restore then halts. This happens every time i click an app to retry.
    So much for no longer requiring the computer (fortunately I have a backup on my PC Too)
    Any ideas??

    You can go to the app store and download it again for free, if it was previously purchased using the same Apple ID that corresponds to the app store.
