You have not explained what you are talking about.
You can redownload apps for free.  Follow the instructions:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • Hi Gang! Ive just bought a computer and I want to sync all my music from my Iphone to the itunes I've just intalled on it. Can this be done without losing all the songs? no way am I paying for them all again! Thank you

    Hi Gang! Is there any way of getting my songs from my Iphone to my new computer just by syncing rather then having to pay for them all again?? thank you

    Hey baby birch
    You are able to sync purchased content from your iDevice to a new computer as long as the comptuer is authorized
    To authorize the computer follow these steps
    At the topi of the screen next to File- Edit -View, click store then Authorize this computer.
    Enter in your appleID email address and password and click authorize
    **If you do not see the File Edit View option, At the very top left corner you should see a little square click the square and click show menu bar.
    Now that your computer is authorized click the file menu button, then click Devices, then go to your iPhones name and then click Transfer purchases this will allow you to transfer all of your purchased content to the computer
    Now if you want to transfer your non purchased content to the computer you can do so if you have wif and the previous computer on the same network as the new computer with home sharing

    You'll have to read the terms of your warranty for India and see what your availalbe options are.
    There are plenty of service providers in India, so that's not a problem.
    Your location isn't a problem, what likely happened is your out of warranty period or you purchased the machine through another country and it got registered with a different warranty period. Once Apple discovered your in India, the warranty for that country is applied.
    For instance in the EU the warranty period is 2 years by law, so Apple has to honor that. But elsewhere it's 1 year and perhaps that's why you were denied replacement. Not because your from India, that the warranty period for machines in India is one year, like it is for everyone else.
    I guess you could fly to the EU and then make a warranty claim from there, but it's already too late, your machine and conversation with Apple was already recorded.
    Now if your indirecting asking folks here to service your machine by shipping it to the EU, you better watch yourself around here.

  • I downloaded the ios6 to my iphone and my moms phone  Now they are syncronized and I lost my contacts. All my phone numbers have emails in them but no phone numbers. Now whenever I get or send a text it shows up on her phone. How do I reverse it?

    I downloaded the ios6 update for the iphone to my phone and my moms"s phone. Now they are syncronized and I lost my contact telephone numbers. Now when I get a text or send  text it shows up on my mom's phone. I asked for help from the people at the ATT store and had no idea how to help me. That is crazy that they don't even know anything about their own products! This is EXTREMELY frustrating. Did you create a software that cannot be reversed or corrected? How to I restore my phone to the way it was? I am being told it can't be done. I have been an ATT customer for 8 years but I would love to go to Verizon right now. Pleae let me know how to reverse this and get the phones unsynced.

    If you share an Apple ID, both of your phone numbers should be linked to that ID. You should be able to use your phone number as well. My wife, my daughter and I all share an Apple ID for purchases, and we each text from our iOS devices using our own iPhone numbers.
    When iOS 6 came out, you were able to link the phone number with your Apple ID to use for Messages and FaceTime. You will need to sign out of messages on all devices and then start the process all over again.
    Take a look at this.

  • My iPhone 5S always asks for my iTunes password before i can use my fingerprint

    I have set my iPhone 5s up, i use the fingerprint sensor to unlock and dowload apps etc, i have gone in to settings, general, Touch ID & Passcode, Touch ID and selected to use the finger print sensor for iTunes & App Store, i put my password in etc, yet every time i try to download an App i have to input my password again before i can use Touch ID! Why??
    Just what is the point of setting it all up, when it is obvious that the Touch ID is not 100% trustworthy, has the password would only need inputting once if it was!
    Really not happy with this repetitive cycle, i may has well of stuck with my iPhone 5, than waste my money on a gimmick!!

    I would try a reset, hold the power button and home button until you see the apple if possible or hold for about 15 seconds then let go. If that does not help, I would restore it through itunes on your computer.

  • Sometimes when i start up Firefox, all my app tabs are missing and i can not get them back unless i physically go do them all again. all my settings are correct as per the trouble shooting pages, but it keeps happening randomly every 1-2 weeks.

    When firefox starts, normally, not after a crash or restore, all the tabs i have pinned as app tabs disappear. I have to go do them all again, and this has happened at least 5-6 times now.

    App (pinned) tabs and Tab Groups (Panorama) are stored as part of the session data [1] in the file sessionstore.js [2] in the Firefox profile folder [3].
    Make sure that you do not use "Clear Recent History" to clear the "Browsing History" when Firefox is closed because that prevails and prevents Firefox from opening tabs from the previous session.

    It is also possible to use the "Show my windows and tabs from last time" setting, that is usually a more reliable way to restore session data.

    If you use cleanup software like CCleaner then make sure that Session is unchecked in the settings for the Firefox application.

  • HT4972 The computer that I normally sync my iphone with has crashed and all info was lost.... Im trying to sync to my new laptop... how do I do this without losing iphone purchases, apps etc???? Help??

    The computer that I normally sync my iphone with has crashed and all info lost.... I'm trying to sync and update with my new laptop but I am getting an error meassage that if I continue all purchases, apps etc will be deleted..... How to I do this without losing all my stuff??? Help I have no clue about technology!!!!!

    The official way to do it is to restore the iTunes library that was on your old computer to your new computer using the backup of your whole system you regularly update.  Then you are syncing the phone with the same old library.
    Some of the information below is summarized by turingtest2 in the post at https://discussions.apple.com/message/18842615
    Your i-device was not designed for unique storage of your media. It is not a backup device and media transfer was designed for you maintaining a master copy of your media on a computer which is itself properly backed up against loss. Syncing is one way, computer to device, updating the device content to the content on the computer, not updating or restoring content on a computer. The exception is iTunes Store purchased content.
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - only media purchased from iTunes Store
    For transferring other items from an i-device to a computer you will have to use third party commercial software. Examples (check the web for others; this is not an exhaustive listing, nor do I have any idea if they are any good):

  • I have iphone 4g and have updated to ios6 an updated itunes 2, but while sync itunes freezes and iphone is not sybc fully, finally i have to disconnect my iphone for itunes to shunt down. Can some one please tell why this is happening?

    I have iphone 4g and have updated to ios6 an updated itunes 2, but while sync itunes freezes and iphone is not sybc fully, finally i have to disconnect my iphone for itunes to shunt down. Can some one please tell why this is happening?

    I am having this problem.  At first with the new iPhone 5, and then with the iPad 2.  I am not sure why this is happening. 
    My gut feeling is this is an iO6 issue and here's why -
    The problem mainly occurs with apps.  I have about 150 apps, and when I plugged in the phone, iTunes went to sync all of them.  The process would hang up after about 20 - 30 apps were loaded onto the phone. I could tell where about the process hung up because the apps on the phone showed up as "waiting".
    Then on the iPad 2 I plugged in to sync and saw there was a huge "Other" component in my storage.  It required me to restore the iPad 2 from backup.  With this restore the same issues occurred - putting the apps back on the iPad would hang up.  The videos on the iPad also got stuck - maybe after about 10 hours of videos transfered iTunes crashed.
    My solution has been to soft reset the device, restart Windows, and continue the process until it's complete.  This is remarkably inefficient and time-intensive but everything works with patience.
    I have been wondering if others have had these same problems. 

  • When I open iMovie, the app searches for missing iPhoto files.  These are files I deleted.  I have to close about 30 dialog boxes before I can start using iMovie.  How do I make this stop?

    When I open iMovie (09), the app searches for missing iPhoto files.  These are files I deleted.  I have to close about 30 dialog boxes before I can start using iMovie.  How do I make this stop?

    So it seems the issue is when iMovie is wanting to creat thumbnails, if I ask it to ignore then it's fine but if not it hangs up searching for the video file.

    If you are now in the US then you can only use the US store, so you should update the address on your account
    Changing country : Change the country of your iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, and Mac App Store account.
    Had you copied the songs over to your computer's iTunes library, do they show in the Music section on it ? You can copy purchases that you still have on your iPad over to your computer's iTunes library via the File > Devices > Transfer Purchases menu option

  • Hi, I am worried about the old Iphones, couldn't we change them for another version? I have my Iphone 3, love it, but now I am feeling out of the picture. The phone works perfect...Is there any plan to do so? like recycling?

    You can purchase any model (currently sold) iPhone that you desire.
    What's the big deal or so complicated about figuring that out?

  • I lost my iphone in the water I bought a new one 4S now I have 2 back ups in Icloud, the one for the new Iphne and the old Iphone where I have the most info I need. How I can download my old backup?

    I lost my iphone in the water I bought a new one 4S now I have 2 back ups in Icloud, the one for the new Iphne and the old Iphone where I have the most info I need. How I can download my old backup?

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    You cannot download a backup from iCloud, the only way to access it is to restore to the backup with your new phone, which you should have done when you first connected it. If you restore now, you will lose all the new information you have added to your new phone.

    Use the Migration Assistant(it'll put the data into a different user account if you've already created one), or drag them and their data through Ethernet, wireless, Target Disk mode, or through an external drive, or reinstall them from the original source.
