Use the Transfer Purchases command in the File menu and then sync, authorizing the computer from the Store menu if needed.

If you made a backup before you restored it you can restore your iPhone from a backup and your game data should be restored. When you connect your iPhone in iTunes you can right click on it in the sidebar and select restore from backup.

Hi guys, i would like to ask about the apple id. Which at this time I have been using the new apple id, can I be able to continue updates all the applications that I have purchased by using the old apple id.

Hey guys, I am newbie here ;(.. I have a question regarding my new apple id. at this moment i've still have all the applications that i've been purchased by using my old apple id.
In case there are an update for the applications in my iphone, " Can i use my new apple id to update all the application that i've been purchased with my old apple id ". If its not possible to do, are there any suggestion for me to updates all the applications by using my new apple id ?
Many thanks ;)

Apps must be updated using the Apple ID used to originally download them to the device.
If you cannot or will not use the old Apple ID, then you can delete the app, and then download it again using the current Apple ID. Be aware that any paid apps will have to be purchased again.

All the apps that I have downloaded are "waiting" and whenever I try to sync apps on my computer with my phone, the apps section is greyed out and won't allow me to do anything. I have tried restoring to factory settings but it didn't work.

How can I access my apps? They are all greyed out in itunes. I have tried restoring my iphone to factory settings but that didn't work. I have a feeling it may have something to with the restrictions settings on my phone restrictions are on) but it won't allow me to change the restrictions without putting in a passcode. I don't remember ever having a passcode and after several attempts have not been able to get the right code.
Also. on my phone, in settings, personal hotspot, iCloud and Twitter are greyed out. And, the App Store icon is missing from my screen as well.
Can anybody help me with this?
Thanks

yep, unfortunately can't reset without the passcode either.
With regards to doing a restore, do you mean:
open itunes on my computer
click on my device on the left
go to the device summary
click restore
it then asks if i want to back up before i restore (to which i say no)
then it asks me if i'm sure I want to restore to factory settings and that all of me media and data will be erased and replaced with the newest version ( to which I say yes)
then it takes about 90 mins to do this but when I look at my phone, everything is exactly the same.
Am I missing something? Obviously I'm technologically challenged, but I HAVE to get to the bottom of this!

My Apple ID is my e-mail address. If I have a new e-mail address and want to use this address instead will I loose all my apps that I have already purchased?

I want to change my e-mail address due to my having a new Internet provider. I used my old e-mail address as my Apple ID to get on the App Store, iTunes Store and iCloud. Will I still be able to download my old purchases if I lose them when I switch addresses?

go to id.apple.com, manage ur apple id, sign in, change primary email to the new one. this will change ur apple id to the new email address and ull get to keep ur purchases

Can I use the apps that I purchased for my iPod touch on my new iPhone 3GS?

I just pre-ordered the iPhone 3GS and I wonder if I can put the apps that I have on my iPod Touch onto the phone also? Can you purchase apps once and use them on 2 devices? If so, how do I do this?

You can authorize up to 5 computers with the same iTunes account, but there isn't any limit for the number of iPods and/or iPhones that can be synced with the same iTunes library and iTunes account. This applies to 3rd party apps which include DRM protection, which iTunes music that is purchased now no longer includes.
If you sync multiple iPod Touches and/or iPhones with the same iTunes library, each device has its own sync preferences with iTunes.

Thank you for any assistance.

Tigon's already got you covered here. But I'll chime in with some English localisation advice.
There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

I have apps on my iPad and my computer is not connected to the Internet. How do I get my apps to load on the computer ? Because it says the apps on my iPad will be replaced with the apps that are on the computer but there is none there!

You are looking at the tabs in iTunes on your computer when your phone is connected? That is where you manage what gets transferred and what does not.

I set up FaceTime and Messages on four different devices with only one Apple ID. I used the exact method that is described in the video that AnaMusic has provided to you in the link in her response above. That method worked fine for my family, but you can create new Apple ID's just to use for FaceTime and Messages if you like. Many users prefer doing that as opposed to adding new email addresses.
IMO - using unique email addresses (like in the video) makes sense, because we (my family) all have different email addresses anyway, and it was very simple to add each family members email address to both apps and remove my Apple ID email address as the contact address on each device.
BTW .... if you are using your Apple ID on both devices - your phone number should be the number that is showing in the settings - not you daughter's. Did you set up the Apps with your Apple ID?

I have 2 iphones, one for personal and one for business. I need my phones not to sync otherwise they will both ring all the time. How can I log out of my icloud and unsync my phones?

Syncing your phones to the same iCloud account won't cause them to both ring all the time, it only puts the same contacts, calendars, and other synced data on the phone. The phones will only ring with someone calls the number associated with the phone.
If you want to stop using iCloud on one or both of the phones, go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, then choose Keep On My iPhone when prompted. This will disconnect them from iCloud and keep a copy of the synced data on the phone.

HT2534 Hi, if I create a new iTunes Store etc account to access a European iTunes store, will this wipe all the apps I've downloaded via my UK AppleID (which I'm using across 3 different devices)?

NB. the app I'm initially interested in downloading for is the paid global/worldwide BBC iPlayer app that's only accessible outside the UK, if that helps.

Yes.
And, your credit or debit card credentials must be associated with the same country where you reside.
"Although you can browse the iTunes Store in any country without being signed in, you can only purchase content from the iTunes Store for your own country. This is enforced via the billing address associated with your credit card or other payment method that you use with the iTunes Store, rather than your actual geographic location."
