I cant saved purchased apps to itunes even as authorized computer.

I want to update my 4S to ios6 but want to back up apps first and itunes wont let me. I have authoized all my computers and still no luck. Also i noticed after i plugged in phone to computer i can no longer open any apps on my phone when i select them. All i can open are text, maps, email, etc. nothing i installed. Hope i dont have to loose all my apps again for an update like when going to ios5. may be the last straw if so. Any help would be great thanks

I have just upgraded the software on my iphone to version 6. I saved all apps and itunes purchases to my computer before upgrading. How can I now put the apps I bought back onto my phone and also onto my new ipad?

Upgrading the OS does not remove your apps and purchases.

TS1702 How do you permanently delete purchased apps from itunes?

How do I permanently delete purchased apps from itunes on my iphone?

I have spent a good part of my evening trying to figure this out then finally found this page which confirms what I was thinking... It doesn't appear possible! ARHHHH!!! There are loads of posts saying how you can do this, when what they appear to be describing is how to remove the apps from their iphone/ipad and not actually from the list of every app you have ever installed which appears when you go into the "Apps Store" > Updates > Not on this iPhone.
It would be really nice to be able to remove programs from this list as I am sure I am not the only person who over the years have installed some apps which where not very good and I don't want to be reminded of them or to ever see them again quite frankly.
I can do this very easily from my Android phone in Google Play which is Google's version of the App Store.
I think things like this remind me why I prefer the ease of use of my Android phone... Ho hum! Maybe one day some geeks at Apple will realise that this would actually be a really useful thing to be able to do and enable it.

You can sync them under apps on iTunes if they are in your iTunes library.
you can go into the App store on the device, tap on "updates" and then "purchases" download the apps you want.

Not necessarily...
You would need to check the Terms and Conditions for the Mac App Store and possibly iTunes for clarity on that assumption...

HT201272 i can't see my purchased apps in itunes on new ipad when I go into the itunes store. It shows nothing. I haven't changed my ID or country of purchase. It shows that I would have to rebuy them when I go into the store.

i can't see my purchased apps in itunes on new ipad mini. when I go into the itunes store. It shows nothing. I haven't changed my ID or country of purchase. It shows that I would have to rebuy them when I go into the store. Is there something in settings on Itunes I need to change? I do not have cloud.

Yes I am looking in the app store. When I look in Itunes on my computer and look at purchased apps it is there. And when I go on my other device and look at apps purchased all apps are there.
The new ipad doesn't show any apps purchased when I click on apps purchased and when I search the app store it doesn't show it is purchased. I am wondering if I am just missing something...need to turn something on in options or something. Never had this problem with previous ipad when I set it up.

IPhone 3G refuses to transfer purchased apps to iTunes

My iPhone 3G refuses to transfer purchased apps to iTunes. This is causing me major problems with syncing.
Whenever I attempt to transfer apps from the iPhone to iTunes it goes through the motions, but never actually transfers anything. It displays the various apps in the info area at the top of the screen, but the progress bar never advances.
In comparsion when I sync other iPhones, using the same install of iTunes, the progress bar advances and apps are transferred.
The same also happens on clean installs of iTunes on other computers, it seems to be my iPhone that is the common factor. I have tried restoring the phone from a backup, which makes no difference.
This started happening months ago and the phone has since been upgraded to 3.0 and 3.1, but the problem still persists.
Originally it was just a minor irritation, but I made and attempt to fix it which has made things worse. I deleted all the apps from with iTunes and then did "Transfer purchases" in the hope that it might fix something.
It didn't fix anything. Also, I cannot now sync at all.
If I do sync iTunes now does "transferring purchases", fails to transfer and then deletes all the apps (and data) from my iPhone. It also means I can't sync music, podcasts or anything else.
I can't sync anything else, because I can't temporarily turn off app syncing because then iTunes warns that the apps on the iPhone will be deleted.
I also tried de-authorising and re-authorising.
What can I do to get app syncing working again ?

I am still struggling with the same problem, doesn't anyone have any suggestions ?

HT201272 How do I redownload my purchased apps to iTunes on Mac

I had all my iTunes apps, video, music etc stored on an external hard drive.
The drive broke down and so did the backup.
So when I open up iTunes now, I see the apps but when I ask to "find in finder" I obviously get an exclamation mark.
I was able to rebuild all my music and videos but am stomped with the apps.
I want to redownload my purchased apps to iTunes which is the last step in reconstructing my iTunes library
I tried the procedure outlined in the following link:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519 but got stomped at step 4:
of: "To download previously purchased:/ Apps, Books, Music, Movies, or TV shows on a computer/Using iTunes 11 or later"
which states: "After you've signed in, click the Library button located in the upper-right of the iTunes Store."
There is no Library Button.
Anyone had the same problem and solve it ? If so, please help !
Thank you !
PS: I am using iTunes 11.01

With iTunes 11, if you have the left-hand sidebar showing (option-command-S) like on previous versions of iTunes, then the Library button won't show - instead you can select your library via that sidebar.
To re-download, on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage there should be a Purchased link under the Quick Links section. Click on that and you should go to a screen where you can select the content type (music, apps etc) and be able to re-download them. If you still have the 'pointers' to your apps in your iTunes library (i.e. where you are getting the exclamation marks) then iTunes will assume that you already have them somewhere and won't let you re-download them - so try deleting one of them first and you should then be able to re-download it via that Purchased link, and you can then do the same for the others.

How to backup purchased app to itunes library and restore

How can I backup purchased app to itunes library ( version 11.0.0.163 ) , what I had found in google was old version with different format
kindly advice , thanks

Connect your device to iTunes. The device should show at the top right just next to the iTunes Store button.
Or on a Mac to View > Show Sidebar, on a PC press Ctrl+S and the device should show in the sidebar
Backup apps and restore as you did in iTunes 10
Hope that helps

How can I transfer apps from iTunes library from one computer to another?

I have been unsuccessful in transferring my music over to my new MacBook from my PC Windows Vista. I even subscribed to MobileMe, but it wouldn't work! So, I have decided to take the time to copy all my music to CDs & do it that way, but how am I going to transfer my apps? If I sync my iPhone with my iTunes library on my MacBook once I have transferred the songs, won't the apps be erased on my phone? Is there a way using MobileMe I could do so? Please please please help.

Do you have access to an external hard drive that you were using for your computer's backup with your PC which has enough storage capacity for your entire iTunes library?
If so, using the external hard drive would be a good way to do this. You would transfer your iTunes named folder in your My Music folder on your PC followed by transferring the iTunes named folder from the external hard drive to the Music folder on your Mac - with iTunes quit when doing so. This will transfer all music, videos, 3rd party apps, playlists, etc. from your PC to your Mac.
If most of your iTunes library includes music purchased from the iTunes store, iTunes includes an option to transfer iTunes content that was purchased from the iTunes store from an iPod or iPhone, but this is for iTunes content that was purchased from the iTunes store only.
First you need to authorize your new MacBook with your iTunes account with iTunes if you haven't already done so.
With your iPhone connected to iTunes and without syncing, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone.
If all 3rd party apps do not transfer from your iPhone to your iTunes library on your Mac, you can re-download purchased apps with iTunes on your MacBook and you won't be charged again as long as you use the same iTunes account that was used to purchase the 3rd party apps.

Whenever i try to sync iphone5(version8.0.2) with itunes 12 on macbookpro.it appears cannot sync the purchased items on itune store. authorize your computer.i authorized it many times. but same response comes again to authorize.

If you are sure that you are authorizing the correct account/ID then:
iTunes repeatedly prompts to authorize computer to play iTunes Store purchases

I cant saved purchased apps to itunes even as authorized computer.
