I just had to restore my phone how do I get my free apps back without downloading them

How do I get my free aps back from where I left off with them after I had to do a system restore?

All content on the device should be a mirror of what is on the computer.
If the apps and media do not exist in your iTunes library on your computer, the only way to get it back is to re-downloaded it from the iTunes store.

  • How can I get my YouTube app back without losing my data?

    So I just got the iOS 6 update for my iPad 2. After the downloading was done I wanted to look something up on YouTube. But when I went to look the app was gone. I couldn't find it in the search or anything. Can someone help me get it back?

    It might but like all iPhone apps on the iPad. It will come in small in which case I would have to enlarge it and if you enlarge it the picture gets more blurred. Do you have a better idea? No disrespect intended

  • I was 3-4 updates behind on ipad. Did back-up, installed update to ipad now how do I get my purchased apps back on my ipad?

    I was 3-4 updates behind on ipad. Did back-up, installed update to ipad now how do I get my purchased apps back on my ipad? I assume they didn't back up to cloud since that came with this update. I can see all my purchased apps but no way to transfer them back to my ipad from whereever they are.  Wish itunes was more user friendly.  Help please.

    If you are running iTunes 11 and if you didn't figure this out yet, when you launch iTunes - go to View>Show Sidebar from the menu at the top of the screen. Once you can see the sidebar, iTunes looks so much more familiar.
    The "new look" iTunes doesn't appeal all that much to me, I just want the functionality that I have always had. It's still there, its just been hidden with a lot of fluff and visual wow that I really don't care about .... Just my opinion.

  • IPhone backup corrupt, how do I get all my apps back?

    I used iTunes to upgrade my 3Gs from 4.0 to 4.01 today. As usual, iTunes made a backup first of my iPhone. The backup time was at 4:25pm.
    After the OS upgrade, iTunes attempted to restore my previous backup but then came up with a message like this:
    itunes could not restore the iphone because the backup session failed
    So my iPhone is at version 4.01 and its like a clean install with only default apps and all my settings are gone. Great.
    In iTunes I CAN see all of my apps in there. So I sync'ed my iPhone. First of all, this DELETED the backup I did at 4:25pm and replaced with a backup of my current setup (default apps, no settings). Fantastic. Now all my settings are gone for good. And the sync did NOT move my apps from iTunes onto my phone.
    So how do I get all my apps back onto my phone? They are clearly in iTunes. They all are listed as having me purchased them. Isn't there a way to Sync them to my phone? Sync'ing doesn't do it.
    And on my iPhone if I go into the App store and look at a app I've already purchased, it tries to get my to buy it again, even though I've already paid for it.
    HELP PLEASE. Stupid iTunes is a piece of garbage.

    So how do I get all my apps back onto my phone?
    Select the iPhone in iTunes.
    Click the Apps tab across the top.
    Tick the Apps you want onto the iPhone then right click the iPhone name - Sync device.\
    And on my iPhone if I go into the App store and look at a app I've already purchased, it tries to get my to buy it again, even though I've already paid for it.
    If you have already purchased it, when you click Buy, it will tell you that you have purchased it and ask if you want to download it again for free.
    I suggest you quit using it and save yourself all the aggravation of using garbage.

  • How can I only allow free apps to be downloaded?

    How can I only allow free apps to be downloaded to my IPhone 4S?

    Sorry, but there's no way I know of to restrict downloading to free apps only. You can turn off purchasing of apps completely, but if purchasing is allowed, it's open other than by age range. You can of course remove any purchase method, but I don't believe that blocks the purchase; you just end up owing money.
    Regards.

    Not true at all.
    You only buy the right to your own personal use.
    You do NOT have the right to distribute to others.
    This is illegal.  There is no doubt about it

    How can I get on the apps store without a debit/credit card or an itunes gift card?
    I can't get any of these, it's impossible for me to.
    HELP PLEASE.

    Create a NEW account using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.

  • How do I get a free app from the US store as it's not in the UK store and it says my UK id is not valid?

    how do I get a free app from the US store, as it's not in the UK store, and it say my id is not valid when I swich stores?

    To be able to use the US store you will need to be in the US and have a US billing address on your account. You can try requesting that it be added to the UK store, but unless the app's developer agrees to it then Apple won't be able to put it in the UK store : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

  • How do I get google maps app back after I mistakenly deleted it?

    How do I get google maps app that came installed on phone back after I mistakenly deleted it ?  It doesn't show on my apps page since it was preloaded on the   phone ?  Is there a way to restore it without having to do a complete restore?

    Nope.  Power cycle the phone first (turn it off, then on) to see if it just needs to be rebooted.
    If not, it's not really that big of a deal.  Connect to iTunes, let it sync, click the "restore" button and let it restore.  When it asks if you want to restore your data back onto the phone, say yes, and when it's done, you'll be right where you are now plus the google map application and all your data. 
    What gets me is... how do you "accidentally" delete an undeletable system application?  The only way I know would be to jailbreak the phone, so, if it is jailbroken, be sure you can get it re-jailbroken, ( and unlocked if necessary) as well before it will be usable for the telephone function.

  • How do i get my old apps back

    i bought plenty of apps in an old ipod touch and i lost it now that i have a new one i want to get all my old payed for apps back without having to repay for them how do i do that

    If you created a backup, you can restore from that.
    Launch iTunes. From the menu bar, click iTunes / Preferences then select the Devices tab.
    If there's a backup available, you'll see it there.
    And, you can see your Apps under Library on the left side of the iTunes window.
    And go to the App Store on your iPod. Find a previously downloaded app. You should be able to re download without repurchasing.

  • Hello...i have lost my all my data because i restored my phone, how can i get all contacts and photos back?

    Hello, I have lost all my data from iphone as i restored it, how can i get my old contacts and photos back ?

    Connect to the computer the last backup is on, right click on its name in iTunes, and choose "Restore from backup". If the latest backup is in iCloud make sure you have a WiFi connection, then go to Settings/General/Reset and tap Erase all content and settings. After erasing you will be prompted to restore the iCloud backup.
