I did a system restore on my iphone2 and used a new name for thr phone on ituhes (Allan2).  Now I need to access my saved apps on the original phone name.  How do I find the two phone profiles on itunes.  When I open it with my phone it only shows Allan2. Thanks

If your apps were in itunes on your computer, then they should still be there.  Just sync them back to the iphone.
BTW, the backup that itunes performs when syncing does NOT include music/apps/movies/tv shows etc.
Anything purchased on the iphone would have to be transferred to your computer.  File>Transfer Purchases
Unlike music/vids/etc, you can redownload apps

  • I just did a system restore on my iphone 4 and it didnt prompt me to restore a back up. how do i restore a back up from the icloud now?

    how do i reload a back up from the icloud when i wasnt prompted?

    If you apps are still in iTunes, you should be able to sync them back to your computer.  Otherwise, if you have iOS 5 (5.01) on your phone you could redownload them by launching Apps, press the Purchased button at the bottom, press Purchased at the top, then Not On This Phone.  This will list your apps and allow you to redownload them.  If you've purchased apps using multiple Apple IDs, you will have to sign in to each of these IDs to be able to download all your apps (by going to Settings>Store>tap on the Apple ID, sign out, sign back in using another ID).

  • Just did a system restore from my time machine and I can not find any of my files from my desktop.  How can I find them?

    I am a new apple user...sorry it took so long.  I did a recovery from my time machine but I can not find any of the filesI was saving on my desktop.  Are they gone for good or is there some way I can get them back?  I am desperate...should I save my regular used files somewhere else other than my desktop?
    Can I get the old desktop files back????

    When you open TM you should see all of the desktop items right away.  If they are not there, go back a day before you  made your last retrieval.  (Look for the dates on the time line on the right hand side of the display)

  • I did a system restore and ... Help!

    Hello,  with this even my husband can not help... I think I lost ALL my docs after a system resrore, this is what I did.  Maybe someone knows what went wrong and help me fix [it if not, at least cry with me].
    My laptop is a Satellite A55 with XP Home Edition.  Everything started when my laptop stopped seeing the Mat**bleep**a UJDA 760 DVD/CDRW.  It said the Driver was either missing or corrupted. Looked for this (##@??!!!!) driver everywhere (I found out that I'm not alone in this...) My husband suggested as a last resort to go for the system restore.  I did a System Restore with the Toshiba Recovery and Applications / Drivers Media. It worked the DVD/CDRW was back but now the REAL problem began. As instructed I made a Backup but into a 8G removable HDD. (D:/) because C:/ did not have enough space.  On recovery I was not asked for "restore" options in any way, shape or form.  Afterwards I could not access my backup files, or restore them. I went to the C:/ Properties > Tools were I started the Backup to begin with but there was no Backup/Restore option.  Looking in Help, it said to go to Accessories > System tools > Backup/Restore, but there was not Backup/R option either. 
    Another detail that "poped up" after this B/R is a pop up blocker that I have never seen before, it appears in the little hand cursor as an ! in red surrounded by yellow and a red border.  I don't know were it is, were it comes from or how to turn it off.  Any ideas...  Sorry for the mistakes the spell check pop up will not pop

    You used Ntbackup.exe to make it?
    What sort of backup? Data files or what?

  • I accidentally deleted QuickTime from my computer. Then I did a system restore and retrieved it. Now Itunes can't find QuickTime and will not open. Is there a fix for this without my Ipod?

    I accidently deleted QuickTime from my computer. Then I did a system restore and retrieved the program. Now Itunes can't find QuickTime and will not open.Is there a eazy fix for this without using my Ipod? Ihave 6K songs in Itunes that I can't get to.
    Thank You
    T-BILL

    Hmmm. There's a couple of things that might be going on with that one.
    Let's try an uninstall and reinstall of QuickTime first.
    If you're using XP, head into your Add or Remove Programs control panel. Select "QuickTime", click "Change" and then click "Remove".
    If you're using & or Vista, head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select QuickTime, and then click "Uninstall".
    You can get QuickTime back either via Apple Software Update (in your Start menu go "All Programs > Apple Software Update" ... QuickTime should appear in the "New Programs" section), or by downloading a QuickTimeInstaller.exe from the following location:

  • Lost all my apps after I did a system restore on my replacement I phone 4

    Hi, I got my I phone stolen and got a replacement phone, I did a system restore and everything came over except for all my apps.  What can I do?  Yes I did back up my phone prior to it being stolen.  I did remember seeing all my apps on my itunes at one point.

    I might of downloaded a new firm ware for i tunes before I did a system restore on my new iphone 4, could that of triggered my apps being missing?
    please help, I have over 100 apps that I don't want to loose.  thanks for anyone that knows whats going on...

  • I just did two System Restores (and clicked something that asked me about "[something -exe]," and now Firefox won't open at all.

    I hope someone can help. My husband did something to update Firefox (or Firefox just automatically updated today, I don't know which), but I didn't like the new toolbar much, so I did a System Restore to get back the old one. That didn't work, so I then did another System Restore for an earlier day, but when I restarted the computer, Firefox wouldn't open at all.
    A pop-up asked me something about "allowing 'something-.exe' at start-up," with options like "Remember this action, don't allow, and allow," I think, and I don't remember what I clicked, and that's likely part of the problem, but in any case, I can't get Firefox to start now. I click on the logo/icon and nothing happens.
    I tried to undo both System Restores, but the computer would only restore the most recent one, not both.
    And I tried, as suggested on the forum elsewhere, to go into "Firefox Safe Mode," but that didn't help either.
    Thank you for any help.

    That's what happened to me too after I upgraded to firefox 4 and it wouldn't connect to my internet. Now I'm stuck with Internet Explorer with none of my important personal information like my favorites.

  • Just installed iTunes 10.4.1 and it wouldn't work.  Did a system restore.  ITunes will not boot.  Computer tells me I must reinstall iTunes.  How do I do that?

    Just installed iTunes 10.4.1 and it wouldn't work.  Did a system restore.  ITunes will not boot.  Computer tells me I must reinstall iTunes.  How do I do that?

    Thanks, but since iTunes will not boot, I cannot run that iTunes diagnostic.  Just need to know how to reinstall iTunes (Windows XP). Do I need to remove the existing non working version of iTunes, or can I just install iTunes from Apple like I was a new user?

  • HT1222 I installed the most recent ITunes update after which Itunes no longer worked.. I received an error message   Error 7  Windows 193.  I did a system restore to eliminate the update.

      Apple support had not responded to my requests for clarification.  The update corrupted both ITunes and Office Outlook mobileme.  The error message when I tried to start up I Tunes was Error 7 Windows 193.  I un installed I Tunes and re installed the latest ver and encountered the same error message.  I finally did a system restore.  Was this a one time problem or is the update bad.  In over 30 years I'd never had a problem with any Apple update.

  • ITunes will not shutdown I have to Contrl-Alt-Delete and end itunes.exe and itunes help to get it to shut down and stay closed. I did a system restore and went back to 10.5.1 version and updated to 10.5.3 no dice Windows 7 64 bit

    Itunes will not stay close ever since I updated to 10.5.3 version. I try to close program and it pops right back up! The only way to close is open tack manager and stop the itunes.exe and the itunes.help then it will stay close. I did a system restore back to the earlier version of itunes but problem presisted. I finally did the task manager again and downloaded the update to 10.5.3 and this seemed to resolve the problem for awhile but now it is back! Is anybody else experiencing this problem? and where you able to correct it? I'm running Windows 7 64 bit have never had a problem with anything till now. I ran scans of my machine no viruses.

    Hi,
    i have exactely the same problem.
    After the update to v10.5.3 iTunes isn't shutting down anymore. I have this error on various Windows versions (XP SP3, Win7 x86, Win7 x64.
    On my private Notebook v10.5.2.11 still works! I won't update iTunes there - not even for a test .

  • Can I use the Find my Iphone app on Itunes?

    Hi, I was wondering if i could use the find my iphone app on itunes, i do not own any other apple device except my phone.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You can use the find my phone app on your phone if you want, however there doesn't seem much point, since you will have it in your hand when you are using it and therefore know where it is.
    You can enable the find my phone feature through settings >Icloud, and then track your phone at iCloud.com, should it be lost or stolen.

  • HT1688 i lost my iphone i just downloaded locate my iphone app in itunes...where do i go from there?

    i lost my iphone and downloaded locate my iphone app in itunes..what do i do from her e to locate it?

    Did you ever enable Find My iPhone on your iPhone in Settings > iCloud?
    If you did not, you're out of luck.  You will not be able to locate your iPhone using any app.
    If you did, simply log on to iCloud on any computer at http://www.icloud.com and go to the Find My iPhone link.
