HT1414 apps are gone on my iphone 5!

i recently got the new iphone 5.  I had backed up my iphone 4 before restoring the iphone 5 as my phone.  everything synced up, but all my apps (aside from the apple apps) are gone.  how do i fix this?

i did select "sync apps" and when it asked me to sync and it would erase all my current apps, i cancelled.
Copied from your previous post.
i transferred my back up thru itunes.  but when i plug in my iphone 4 again, on the apps tab, when i click sync, it says that it will erase all apps that i have now and replace them with what i have. not sure if that is what i should do. but i clicked it.
Sync Apps should have been selected all along - from day one.
Selecting it after the fact - after apps were downloaded direct from the iPhone wiill cause all apps on the iPhone being erased.
With the iPhone connected, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone 4.

    If you have failed to make sure that any apps purchased on the iphone were transferred to your computer before updating, then you will have to redownload.
    Open itunes store, click Purchased, under Quick Links.

    All your apps should be in your itunes media library, so sync your phone to itunes.
    Only the app data is part of the backup, not the apps itself.

    Right click on the .exe file and select run as admin. This will allow it to run all the processes it needs and should help it work. If the problem is not fixed you should try waiting till a new update, that often fixes ios issues.
    On other problem could be a hardware issue, try a new cable and use it in a different USB socket.

    Try rebooting your iPad and see if they reappear.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If they still do not show up, make sure hat you don't have content restrictions set that could prevent certain apps from showing up on your iPad. Settings>General>RestrictionsAllowed Content.
    if you still don't see them, connect your iPad to iTunes on your computer and you should see them in the iPad mini screens on the right side of iTunes after the iPad has been selected under "devices" and when you are in the apps pane of iTunes.

  • Crash during sync, now all my apps are gone.

    My laptop and iphone crashed during a sync. Laptop would lock up as soon as the phone was plugged in, and the phone started random reboots and freezes.
    I reinstalled WinXP and itunes on the laptop, but still could not sync. The phone would come up "sync in progress", but then nothing happened. Left it sit overnight, and sync still would never complete.
    Restored the phone to factory settings, and now everything seems fine. Only problem is that all of my downloaded apps are gone. I can see the history where I purchased them in the itunes store but they are not in itunes. If I try to reload them it wants me to pay for them again. Is there any way to recover previously purchased apps?

    You can re-download purchased apps for free. Click on buy, click yes to I want to purchase, another popup will appear, you have already purchased, do you want to re-download, click yes.

  • Apps are disappearing off my iPhone and I can't get them back.

    Hi, apps are disappearing off my iPhone and I can't get them back. Spotify, Shazam, BBC iPlayer and the Maps app have just gone. I have tried to redownload them from the App Store but there isn't the option, cant get them back with iTunes either. Help!

    I wish it was as simple as that. I have tried to redownload them but they are marked as installed.
    I have even gone into iTunes and in the app tab untucked the disappeared apps, synced, then reticked the apps. This is where the strangest thing happens, the app appears on my iPhone, the progress bar goes from zero to the top, then, when the app should be installed, it disappears.
    So far Spotify, BBC iPlayer, the Maps app, iFooty, and probably some apps I'm not aware of are affected.
    Interestingly, the apps have also gone from my wife's iPhone which is on the same Apple I'd, but they haven't gone from my iPad which is also on the same Apple I'd.
