HT4527 Shared, transfered, backed up, synced, but all apps are gone...?

Hi,
We have 1 iPad, 1 iPhone, and 3 iPods that need to be moved from old-pc to new-pc..  So I:
- read forums, faqs, etc.
- authorize new-pc
- set up sharing and copy everything from old-pc to new-pc
- transrfer purchases from iPad to new-pc
- do a back up of iPad to new-pc
- upgraded iPad on new-pc
- sync iPad to new-pc
Then, much to my dismay, I see that no apps are present.  Music and movies are there, so are some personal settings, but no AppStore apps.   "A-ha!", I thinks to myself..."I'll restore from backup!"  After which iPad has reverted it's sync to old-pc. 
So I curse for a bit and re-sync iPad to new-pc.  But all apps are still gone, and the only way to get them back on iPad is to download them from iStore (or whatever the h*** it's called) but all personal app-info is gone.
Please help.  How do I transfer iThing ownership from old-pc to new-pc without losing half of everything?
Thanks, oh so very much.
Splats.

Have you tried this...
Reset all settings
Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings.
This will return all iDevice settings to factory defaults... you will not lose any data.... But you will have to re-enter all of the device settings.

  • Application menu is there - but all apps are GONE

    All my apps appeared on the app menu and in itunes - until today. I know the application selection on the menu can be hidden, it's not. I kept the software up to date, I had not installed the latest release until just now.
    All my apps are missing, about $30+ worth, plus related data. Can someone help me out here? Not sure what to do, help!

    Hello spaceistheplace,
    There are several possible ways to recover your applications. As previously mentioned you can redownload purchases APPs without charge:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    You can transfer purchases from the iPhone to your iTunes library:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848
    The application data is not stored with the APPS in iTunes, that information is maintained on the iPhone and can also be stored in the backup that iTunes creates when you sync the iPhone.
    Check out my post in this thread for additional information about getting the APPS back into iTunes:

    Hope that helps,

  • HT3702 I am being charge for itunes but all apps are free?

    I am being charge for itunes but all apps are free? It is possible to get money back?

    If you are referring to the temporary store holding charge as described on the page that you posting, which is 'charged' each time that you change the card details on your account, then it should disappear off the card within a few days or so - though it varies by bank, and with it now being the weekend it might an extra day or two. If they haven't disappeared within a week of them being made then you could contact iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
    Also some apps may be free to download but they then allow you to make in-app purchases to unlock extra features within them - you can turn off in-app purchases via Settings > General > Restrictions on your phone.

  • I just updated my iphone 4S & all apps are gone. How do I get them back.

    I just updated my iphone 4S & all my apps are gone.

    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.

  • Updated iPad to iOS5.  Now all apps are gone!

    I updated the OS on my iPad 1st gen to 5.  I got the restore error like many people have gotten.  I tried again and it succesfully updated to 5.  When I finally got through the initial setup, I noticed all the apps I purchased were gone!  I did a restore and it was the same state.  So, I restored from a backup I did yesterday.  All my apps are still gone.
    Any ideas?

    First of all: before you upgrade, always make a backup of your device in iTunes!
    The following happens when upgrading to iOS 5 (this is different from previous system upgrades!):
    The installer creates automatically a restore file
    Then a clean system is installed on your device, all your data will be removed. Don't panic, this will be ok later on.
    When the os is updated you get a few configuration questions (i.e. language settings).
    At one point you're given a choice:
    configure device as a new device
    restore from iCloud
    restore from iTunes
    Unless you want to start all over, choose the third option.
    All your settings will be restored at first and your device will restart.
    Now comes the tricky bit: After restart your device will work fine as if the process is finished. i.e. you can send and recieve mails. At this point you will not see the apps you had installed, also you're photo's and movies will not be on your device. (I was fooled buy this one at first too)
    Do not disconnect your device or quit iTunes! In the background iTunes is still restoring the rest of your data. (Switch to iTunes and you'll see the progress.) This can take some time, depending on how much apps you had installed. One by one you'll see apps appearing on your device. You can't use the untill the whole restore is finished.
    When all apps are back, your photo's and video's will be restored.
    So please be patient. It took me more than an hour to get everything back in place.
    The only small annoyance: there are new Apple-apps added to the homescreen. They're 'pushed' to the second screen by your own homescreen apps, leaving your second screen almost empty. Now you only have to rearrange the apps on the second screen.
    If all turns out bad, because you unplugged your device too early, go back to your restore file you made yourself before upgrade. (You did do that, didn't you?) and start the process all over.

  • I have lost firefox and hade to reinstall but all settings are gone. how do I retreive them?

    I have had problems with Firefox for several days. When I am within a page I cannot go to a further page within the selected site. Now I have a newly installed version of Firefox and it has no stored information. No bookmarks or passwords. The lost information is important and cannot be recreated. Help

    Did you create a new profile or possibly reset Firefox?
    When you reset Firefox then a new profile is created and some personal data (bookmarks, history, cookies, passwords, form data) is automatically imported and the current profile folder will be moved to the desktop (Old Firefox Data).
    You will lose extensions and other customizations (toolbars, prefs) that you've made.
    Try to restore the files from the Time Machine

  • HT203175 I plugged my iPod into the computer and it says that my iPod is synced with another iTunes library, but it's not. So all my music and apps are gone. What can I do to remind the computer its the right iTunes library and get all my stuff back?

    Same as you would if you bought a pc; copy everything from your old computer to your new one.  Then you can just sync everything from the new computer, as you did with the old one.

  • Yesterday i bought ipad4 i transfered photos from pc to ipad that it opened in ipad when i click slideshow everything went black. whenever i m opening the application(photos) full screen looking black but all photos are occuping memory.

    yesterday i bought ipad4 i transfered photos from pc to ipad that it opened in ipad when i click slideshow everything went black. whenever i m opening the application(photos) full screen looking black but all photos are occuping memory.i can see the pictures in settings>brightness>wallpapers but i couldnt able to see in photos application in ipad4

    I have several thousand photos in several folders. I have noticed that whenever I want to change the folder used as the side show source, it takes the Screen Saver Preference pane a very long time to respond. It is as if it is scanning all the photos in the currently assigned folder in order to display them in the preview window provided, and it gets so dogged down doing that it can't respond to my clicks on the Choose Folder option.
    Assuming you don't want to redistribute your photos into a greater number of folders or subfolders so there would be fewer in each folder to process, you could try a workaround. Try moving your currently-assigned folder to your desktop temporarily, before opening the Screen Saver preference pane. If the preference pane can't find the old folder, it may immediately ask you to choose a new one. You could hopefully then do so, close the preference pane, and then put back the old folder.
    It's my understanding that there will be no future updates to Tiger, only security fixes.

  • I just installed ios7 on my iPhone 4s.  It seems to be working fine but all of the apps I had previously installed are gone.  They show up in my app store as purchased, but the shortcuts are gone.  Does anyone know how to get the shortcuts back?  Thanks!

    I updated via my iPhone 4s.  The apps were on my iPhone 4s.  That's all the information that I have.  The update to ios7 seems to have gone smoothly - everything else is working, phone texting, email, internet, etc.  But all of the apps I had installed over the past year are no longer showing up as shortcuts.  No facebook, no twitter, no espn, etc.  They are all still listed in my app store as purchased, but the shortcuts and my folders are gone.  Thanks.

  • My cousin told me there was a way to get free apps and that he could do it but what he really did was try to refund all my apps, the apps are gone from the history but no money has come back for me to even get the apps back, please help.

    My cousin told me there was a way to get free apps and that he could do it but what he really did was try to refund all my apps, the apps are gone from the history but no money has come back for me to even get the apps back, is this permanent?

    Yup!!
    Got what you deserved!
    Do not try and rip off or steal from people or companies.
    You have good cousin, there!(sarcasm)

  • I updated to iOS 7 but now that I am using my iphone, all my apps are gone. everything else has been recovered from i could except my apps. I have my apps backed up but i cant get them restored.

    I updated to iOS 7 but now that I am using my iphone, all my apps are gone. everything else has been recovered from i could except my apps. I have my apps backed up but i cant get them restored.

    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.
