HT4946 in-app purchases are backed up but what about the apps themselves (purchased and free)?

While creating a back-up by via iTunes (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US), in-app purchases are backed up (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946) but what about the apps themselves (purchased and free)?
Are the apps backed up too or do they need to be purchased, downloaded and installed again?

You can transfer your purchases to computer iTunes.
Connect and select iPhone in iTunes under DEVICES, right click and choose Transfer Purchases from ...
BTW, you can alway re-download again for free if it's still available in the app store.

  • I want to produce wedding dvds.whats the best software to use...final cut x I'm thinking but what about the quality of the dvd?

    i want to produce wedding dvds.whats the best software to use...final cut x I'm thinking but what about the quality of the dvd? Can i use idvd?

    The only Programms I worked with are DVD Studio Pro and iDVD. You can burn a Video-DVD with Toast but  there is no real option to design your Menu. Just a few themes as far as I discovered.
    Do you have a Blue Ray Device to burn* the HD-DVD? Are the Bride and Groom able to watch the Blue Ray?
    * which is only possible with DVD Studio Pro and not iMovie as far as I know.
    This might help
    For better quality I would go the Compressor & DVD Studio Pro workflow I just learned.
    Export the Movie as is from Final Cut Pro and then use Compressor to encode the File.
    Consider delivering the Movie in a different way like a private video on vimeo, a Website or on an SD card which is not really romantic...

  • HT201272 how do I redeem coins I purchased for Bejeweled blitz?  It shows I purchased them on itunes, but not on the app.

    How do I redeem coins I purchased for Bejeweled Blitz?  The purchase shows up on iTunes, but not on the app.

    It sounds like you might have broken links to your content. Either repair these by putting the files you've recovered where iTunes expects to find them or delete the broken entries then go to iTunes Store > Purchased > Music > Not on This Computer, and click the download links.
    If you have an Apple device see also Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

  • Nice updates/fixes but what about the reception issue?

    Don't want to beat a proverbial dead horse, but what about making the IPhone 4 a better receiver of calls? My 3Gs was the BEST phone I ever owned. I rarely had a dropped call, I was able to make and receive calls in places where no phone I had owned previously could. When I read that this phone had the best reception of any IPhone (according to Apple) I went and made the switch. Yes, I read many posts where folks say just that, great phone. I am on IPhone 4 number three and all have been plagued with reception issues, thought the first two were worse than this one. I go to the same locations every day and the 3Gs sent and received calls remarkably better. Just sayin.....

    What ps issue? I have none!! The reception issue is real and I lose signal in places where my 3GS would not.. I can hold my 3gs any way I like and still use the internet.. While using my iPhone 4 in the same place, all I get is the spinning wheel of death and it does not connect.. I've had the bumper on it since I got it and while it may help a little, it does NOT make the issue disappear..
    Just because an issue doesn't effect YOUR phone, doesn't mean it's not an issue for others..
    if you are not using a case then you are just ... idk... slow or something.
    because apple put the antenna on the outside of the phone it is easier to attenuate the signal but it also gives much better reception. i have not dropped one call on my iphone 4... i was dropping tons of calls on my 3Gs and i am in the same area.
    i have tried to attenuate the signal on my phone and cannot with the case on no matter how i hold it. if i take the case off and hold the sweet spot it drops like crazy. maybe your bumper isn't covering the antenna well enough.
    i got the incipio NGP for 19 bucks at walmart. if you put that case on and still have the issue then i think you are totally full of cr@p.

    Just curious.

    Do the non-syncing songs play in iTunes on the computer?

  • I open an apps that i bought recently but automatically close the apps.

    i open an apps that i bought recently but it automatically close and i cant used it. i already purchase it.

    Have you tried closing the app completely ? From the home screen (i.e. not with the non-working app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    Another option is to try deleting the app and re-downloading it : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

  • TS1702 Not able to update apps. Not just one, but none of the apps will update

    I am not able to update "any" app.  My apps are all free.
    Upon prompting to enter my password, I enter the password, the update circular arrow begins spinning, then the update rectangle again appears.
    I tap update, am asked for my password again,  and I am caught in the same loop. The App never updates.

    Close the App Store and reboot the iPad.
    To close an app, drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the App Store app and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    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.

  • HT1202 I get how you can transfer purchases from a device to computer but what about the hundreds of songs on my iPad that were from CDs and non purchased? How can you move them from iPAd to computer if it wants to erase and sync?

    I am needing to transfer ALL content, not just purchased, to new computer and it wants to erase and sync because device is associated with another Library. Please help!

    What was the source to get that content onto the iPad?
    There has to be a middleman to get from CD to iPad - use
    backup of that to get content to new computer.

  • Selling my Touch, what about the apps?

    Hello,
    I recently bought a iPod touch 32 and several apps which are installed on it. The touch is just not for me. I am listing to sell it but would love to sell the apps I purchased also, since I really dont have use for the games, etc. I am going to return to the nano, which fits my lifestyle better.
    I suppose I am out of luck when it comes to including the apps in the transfer to a new owner but wanted to ask.

    What if I sell the account with the unit?
    Legally, you cant. The iTunes terms & conditions grant you a single non-transferable license. See: http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/service.html. In any case, selling your iTunes account would be a phenomenally dumb thing to do since it's bound to your credit card number, and if the account details where changed to the buyers CC# and billing address, that's simply going to flag up to Apple that you've breached your non-transferable license.

  • Apple TV is great but what about the content?

    So I went to the Apple Store today ready with cash in hand from my tax refund to buy an Apple TV. However, I was sadly surprised by the content loaded on the Apple TV. Both the movies clips and tv shows clips were grainy and poor quality. So much so that I was really debating buying it.
    When speaking with one store rep, he stated that the clips were representative of the content available on iTunes yet de didn't know how to navigate thru Apple TV's menu nor did he know what the difference between 480P and 720P were.
    Anyways, after speaking with another rep, I did buy it and I think it is great. Some on my stuff in 720P looks unbelieveable as does the movie trailers available thru Apple TV. Some of the free episodes I have downloaded from iTunes look good as well.
    Can somebody tell me how shows like BattleStar Galactica look when purchased from iTunes?

    I agree that picture quality of iTunes content is not quite there yet imho. I have a 61" DLP, and bought an episode of remastered Start Trek as a test, and it looked pretty good. But for now, holding off on movies and HD shows until they are available in HD (I record current HD shows on an HD Tivo anyway.)
    I will say that I am VERY impressed with the picture quality of the interface, photos and the album covers. The type is much cleaner/easier to read than even my Tivo Series 3 HD menu. And i love being able to control iTunes from the family room (I have an Airport Express and could stream iTunes music to my family room - but no way to see what was playing. And on my Tivo, I could stream music and see what was playing - but couldn't play content from iTunes store. So Apple TV is a great addition to my family room.)
    I figure this is just the first step, and as early adapters we just have to be patient 'til all iTunes movies and tv shows are available in HD.
    One feature I DO wish we had now was the ability to use album covers from streaming music (not just synced music) as a screensaver. I'm not syncing music - only video, since streaming works so nicely.

  • Account disabled for security reasons - what about the music I purchased ?

    Hello to you all Apple/Mac lovers ,
    I have a problem : my iTunes/Apple ID was disabled for "security reasons". That I suppose I can understand - although I can't figure out what danger I represent for Apple and iTunes.
    The problem though is that I purchased some music on the iTunes Store and now I need to re-enter my account ID and password to listen to it - but since the account was deleted the iTunes Store accept or recognize the ID/password combination and it tells me why : "This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons.". This is how I first learned my account had been disabled.
    How can I listen to my music now ? Thanks in advance for your advice !
    Charles

    Yes I got it to work your link was the right one. Here's how it works : the security reason was that I or someone else tried to use my account and entered a wrong password 5 times or 10 times in a row. That's why my account was blocked. So all I - or anyone - has to do is to ask for a new password using Apple's password recovery tool, iForgot. There was on link on that page you sent me, or on one of the help and FAQ pages it linked to, so that's how I got there and that's how I did it. Thanks a lot !!

  • Synced Google Calendar with Ipod Calendar, but what about the other way?

    Hello everyone,
      I have a ton of appointments on my Ipod Touch calendar.  I decided to sync them with a brand new empty Google calendar.  I followed these steps I found on the web to add the Google calendar to the Ipod Touch:
    Open the Settings application on your device's home screen.
    Open Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Select Add Account...
    Select Other.
    Select Add CalDAV Account.
    Enter your account information:
    In the Server field, enter [ google.com ]
    In the Username field, enter your full Google Account or Google Apps email address.
    In the Password field, enter your Google Account or Google Apps password.
    In the Description field, enter the name you'd like to appear on the account.
    Select Next at the top of your screen.
    After you've completed setup, open the Calendar app on your device and syncing will automatically begin.
    Now since that was done, new entries I add in Google Calendar show up on the Ipod Touch, but not the other way around.  Is there a setting option I missed?  I need to pre-populate Google from the Ipod first I asume.Thanks.

    Unfortunately, the only solutions available require Outlook in order to work... The best, and the one I've decided on using, is SyncMyCal.com. There is a free version available that requires you to sync manually, but once you sync events into Outlook, you can sync them to your iPod touch.
    With the 1.1.2 update for the iPod touch, which enables you to directly add events on it... you can set SyncMyCal to also publish events back to your Google Calendar.
    I really wish this functionality was built in directly.
    iTunes already supports syncing with Yahoo! Address Book... Considering how close Apple has been with Google as of late, it's hard to believe some sort of syncing plugin for gApps hasn't been introduced yet.

  • Dates Greater Than, Less Than, but what about the dates between?

    This is what my data looks like.
    Employee# StartsWork EndsWork
    1_________8/15______8/16
    2_________8/16______8/19
    3_________8/17______8/17
    I need to know how many employees I have working on any given day.
    The table below shows the dates across the top, and the data in the cells represents the total number of workers on any given date.
    Date_____8/15_______8/16_______8/17________8/18________8/19_______8/20
    Workers___1__________2__________2___________1__________1__________0
    FYI: This report does not contain any prompts. It just shows me the next 6 days.
    I was trying something like this but without any success: Create a column
    CASE WHEN current_date > "StartWork" AND current_date < "EndsWork" THEN '1' WHEN (current_date+1) > "StartWork" AND (current_date+1) < "EndsWork" THEN '2'
    and so on, then just use the column to sort the rows. I can use some count function later to finish it.

    Create three date dimensions, Join first date dimension (d1) with Start Date, join second date dimension (d2) with End date, create a dummy join (1=1) with 3rd date dimension.
    On the report or in PRD create a measure as follows.
    CASE WHEN D3.Date <= d2.Date and D3.Date >= D1.Date then 1 ELSE 0 END

  • So screens are doing well.  What about the sound & the TV out function?

    Good to hear that week 38 touches are doing good. Will buy mine late October.
    Are you also using earphones other than the standard apple ones? Does it sound better? Don't want to plunk down $$ for Shure earphones.
    Thanks

    Hey, I completely overlooked the fact that I would be able to AirPlay from the iPhone and iPad to the Apple TV. I don't have to AirPlay directly to the speakers. Duh. Thanks! I'll check out the Samsung Sound bar.

  • Been told to restore my iphone 3g but what about contacts, cal and apps?

    I am really nervous about this and worried. mynetwork operator has advised I need to restore my iphone using itunes, due to not being able to make calls on my phone.
    anyway, I am really worried about losing my contacts, calendar and any Apps I have purchased too.
    any ideas on these concerns? definately need a fool proof way of making sure I restore my contacts and calendar etc.
    then what about the apps? I paid for them? if I remove them, what happens, do I have to purchase them again?

    You should be syncing regularly with your computer, so all of these things should be on your computer. You can simply sync them back to your iphone.
