I can't synchronize the apps, synchronization button is grey

I can't syncronize my apps, after reseting my Iphone and loading the formerly saved image, my teleohone numbers and photos are still on the phone but not the apps and neither my music. On Itunes I am not able to install the apps, because the button the syncronise apps and music are grey.

Oh this is quite easy to solve!
1) First connect iPod to computer
2) Launch iTunes
3) On the left hand side of iTunes, under Library, there is an Apps header?
4) When you click on that, you should see your downloaded apps?
5) A little lower down, you'll see your iPod under Devices, drag apps over your iPod's list (over the music, photos, videos area as you mentioned), you'll that that area is highlighted, release left mouse button to drop them apps!
6) Copying ensues ...
7) Check iPod
8) Back at iTunes, click on your iPod's name, look at the right side, you'll see a summary page right?
9) At the top of that page, one of the menu item is Apps, click on that and you'll see a replica of sorts of your iPod, unchecking apps (or selecting by checking) and then hitting Apply button below, will apply the changes you made onto your iPod.
10) You can also arrange your iPod from there if you like.
That was a lot of steps, but its pretty simple to perform, and the last few wasn't really neccessary, it does look more impressive to write a long list of steps however.

  • I can't find the Apps button in my ipod touch, please help.

    I can't find the Apps button in my ipod touch.
    I already downloaded some applications in itunes, hoping to sync it to my ipod touch. However, there is no button for Apps in my ipod touch.
    And in the partitions of my ipod touch memory (music, photos, videos), there is no space for Applications.
    Please help, thanks!

    Try downloading another app - any free app - that seems to reset something and the apps may start working again. Try that first. If that doesnt work, try these steps
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset 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 - let go of the buttons.
    Close all apps. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

    Try:

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • In "purchases" while in my App Store, Mountain Lion says, "an error has occurred" and the green 'download' button is grey and I cannot re-start the download. I was abroad when I purchased this app and during download, my internet connection was lost.

    In "purchases" while in my App Store, Mountain Lion says, "an error has occurred" and the green 'download' button is grey and I cannot re-start the download. I was abroad when I purchased this app and during download, my internet connection was lost. At the time, Apple was still offering the e-chat, so I did that and the man was very helpful and it was a quick fix, so my download button turned green again, and I was able to begin the download. BUT during the download, I was kicked offline once again, and I decided to wait until I was back in the USA. I will go in to an Apple store and ask assistance, but if there is something I am missing, I'd like to try that first. Thanks in advance for any advice.

    Welcome to the support forums.
    Please ask this question in the Mac App Store forum where they can better assist you.

  • My iPhoto isn't working. Error message says "you can't open the app "iPhoto" because it may be damaged or incomplete.

    Just purchased a new mac with Mountain Lion installed. My iPhoto isn't working. Error message says "you can't open the app "iPhoto" because it may be damaged or incomplete.

    First try this:  launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and create a new, test library.  Import some photos and check to see if the same problem persists. If it does then make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
    1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
         User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
    2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
    User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
    or with Mt. Lion from the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
    Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
    3 - launch iPhoto and try again.
    NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto.  You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
    NOTE 2:  In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

  • TS1702 I have an app that appears to need to be updated. I clicked to update three days ago. It has started to update and will not finish. How can I delete the app while its in the middle of updating?

    I have an app that appeared to need to be updated. I clicked to update three days ago. It has started to update and will not finish. How can I delete the app while its in the middle of updating?

    Locked on an update can mean a couple of different things. So there are a number of things to try, but start with these.
    If you have a "waiting" icon, try tapping on the icon and see if you can pause the update/download. Of it pauses, tap on it again and see if it will resume.
    Try holding down on the icon until all of the icons on the screen wiggle. If the X to delete pops up on the waiting/stalled app -  tap the X to delete the app. Tao,the home button and the apps will stop wiggling.
    You can also try this and see if the downloads will resume. 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.

  • I have recently upgraded my iPad 2 to iOS 7 and I have lost 3 app icons.  The apps still appear in settings, so I can't reinstall the app as they're already there.  I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling via an iTunes sync, but it hasn't helped.

    I have recently upgraded my iPad 2 to iOS 7 and I have lost 3 app icons.  The apps still appear in settings, so I can't reinstall the app as they're already there.  I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling via an iTunes sync, but it hasn't helped.  The 3 apps are bbc iplayer, itv player and sky go.
    Can anyone help please?

    Have you checked to see if the Apps have been placed in an App folder?
    Try swiping down from the middle of the screen so the search bar appears. Type the name of the App and if the App appears it is indeed on your phone.
    You could also try restarting your device by holding the power and home button until the Apple logo appears.

  • HT4623 Have just updated to the latest version of ios6 on my iPhone 4S and now I can't see the apps that need updating. Is showing 8 but just left with blank screen.

    Look for the little Flag button in the lower left corner.

  • Even though I can connect to the app store, apps rarely will download.

    Even though the iPad can connect to the app store, apps and updates do not download (except occasionally). 
    The error message is "Cannot connect to the iTunes store."  Obviously there is something wrong with that error message, since the iPad actually connects to the store in order to attempt installing an app or update.
    I have tried changing networks, changing locations, rebooting the iPad, turning WiFi off and back on and downloading updates instead of new apps, but the fact is that apps and updates will rarely download.  I have gone through every troubleshooting item in http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1368, http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1424, http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398, although I found that almost all of it does not refer to my problem.  I also tried everyting in an advanced iTunes troubleshooting document I can no longer find.  The fact that it works some of the time seems to eliminate most of the troubleshooting steps, which assume the problem is not intermittent.
    This started several weeks ago. Before that, I had no problems dowloading and installing apps.  The problem started abruptly.  At first apps would download maybe 75-80% of the time, but lately, it has gotten rediculous.  The successful download is highly intermittent.  Apps and updates will download maybe one in 20 attempts or so.
    This is an iPad 2 running iOS 5.01.
    If anyone can give me some ideas how to proceed here, I'd really appreciate it!

    Force close the App Store app and reset the iPad. No data will be lost when you reset the device.
    In order to close apps, you have to 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 that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Next, reset 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.

  • I can't access the App Store icon. It opens but a large delta airlines app is superimposed over the top of the App Store updates icons and is locking the entire app. How do I delete it?

    I can't access the App Store app. When I tap the Icon, a large Delta airlines app is superimposed over the top of everything and freezes up the entire App Store. how can delete this large app and where did it come from.

    Quit the App Store app and reset your iPad.
    Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • Can't search the App Store!

    Can't search the app store. Good connection and can see featured apps and other things but can't search for any games. Just comes up with "no results" Just seems to be a problem tonight within the last couple of hours.

    You can work around this on your iPod/Phone by searching for an app by title using Google in Safari. If you get a hit in Safari for an app that links directly to the app store, when you click on it, it will flip you to an installation screen for that app on your device, and it installs like normal when you click the button.  Clumsy and irritating, but it works. Just finished setting up my wife's iPhone 4S and it was the only way to get the vz contact transfer app onto her phone.
    Apple has got to know there's a problem by now, though -- their employees must be having the same issue, and i can hardly imagine an Apple employee hanging out in the cafeteria on their campus with a Droid or an HTC phone.

  • HT201272 Where can I find the app password saver by yonglin wang.  i wanted to restore my iphone and i had purchased this app and it is not anywhere in my purchases to reload.  Why is it not on my list of purchases?

    Where can I find the app "password Saver" by yonglin wang?  while updating my iphone the app was dropped for some reason.  I went to reload from my purchased apps and it is not available.  The history shows my purchase but I can not find the app to reload.  I've lost some critical info and need to retreive if possible.  Any suggestions?

    You tried what ? If the app is no longer available in the store (can you find it in the main part of the store ?) for re-downloading then you would need to have a copy of it somewhere e.g. on your computer's iTunes, on a backup of your downloads.
