I lost all of my iPad apps when I updated the software.

I just updated the software on my iPad and all of my apps are now gone. I checked my purchased apps on the iTunes store and the only app on there is facebook, but I had plenty of other apps as well, some of which I paid for. When I clicked update it said backing up iPad, so I dont know why they are missing.

Yes, it was done with the update, but at this point, iTunes has not yet restored the apps. Contact iTunes Support, tell them all of your Apple IDs, and see if they can see your purchase history. Contact them at http://apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

Upgrading to Mavericks
You can upgrade to Mavericks from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mavericks can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to Mavericks
To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Mavericks from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mavericks is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.

I have the iPhone 4. and when I updated the software to iOS6 My notifications don't make a sound anymore, the only sound that I get are text messages, or Email. I checked to see if the other apps were muted and they weren't. How do I fix this??

You cannot update iPhone 4 to IOS 8.1.2, the highest you can update is IOS 7.1.2.
Unless you've iPhone 4S (looks similar to iPhone 4)

My young kids have ipads and since I updated the software, but they have their own icloud account, predictive text within their messages shows all my contacts from my iphone but the contacts are not listed as their contacts, how do I stop this?

I have deleted the iCloud account under my name on their iPads and replaced with their ones. Apple support said yesterday I needed to click the small 'I' by each name as it came up in the TO box and remove it. After doing rid for each contact under each letter of the alphabet it should remove them from latest contacts. Having done this, although I could not remove groups I had sent, I am not convinced they will not return once I have written a few texts, any ideas?

How are you attempting to open iTunes, and can you describe exactly what happens when you do?
Do you recall just what software update you performed?

Problem...when i updated the software

so my daughter Riley, her ipod always said "riley's ipod", and my other daughters said "maddi's ipod". when I updated the software on rileys ipod, somehow when it "restored" it now says "maddi's ipod" and everything is identical to Maddi's ipod. all Ry's pics are gone, its as if it never existed. I am so upset. any help out there??

If the device has been used as designed, the pics and via taken with the device would have regularly been copied off to a computer.
The first step in the update process via iTunes on the computer is a backup.
Restore the device from the most recent backup.
If data is lost, then it is merely the fault of the user for not backing up the device or saving their data regularly.
Once the device is in recovery mode, the ONLY option is to restore.

My dad and i have the same icloud id,when i updated the software (to ios 8.1.3) i have my dad´s photos on my iphone.And want my photos back (i tried restoring my phone from the last backup) but still have my dad´s photos on my device.

And that's exactly the problem, because everyone should have their own account for iCloud. You can share an Apple ID for iTunes & App Store purchases, but you shouldn't do that for iCloud (Mail, Calendar, Contacts etc. ... ...and Photos). The problem of using the same account together could mean that only your dad's photos were stored.

No iPhone records voicemail messages. Visual voicemail is simply an interface to the carriers voicemail servers.
Contact the carrier to troubleshoot the issue with their voicemail.

When I updated the software on my ipod 4 touch, many podcasts were erased. When I synced the ipod, they were erased from the ipod also. The current itunes does not allow me to go back to these dates (a few months) and re-download? Can I? and prevent this?

When I upgraded the software on my ipod touch4, many podcasts were deleted from itunes. Of course, when I synced the ipod, they were deleted from the ipod as well. Apparently the current version of itunes will not let me go back to these earlier episodes (just a few months), in a podcast that I have been subscribed to, and re-download them. Is there a way to do that? and, how can I prevent this from happening again?

Hey! I had the same problem you did just today when I was trying to get my second iPhone to sync. What you need to do with music or anything extra that you doing you have to creat a second playlist or picture or anything that you would like to use, so that you can add to the second device that you are going to be using. I am not sure if that will help but it helped me out a lot!! Good luck!

When I updated the software on my iPhone 3GS and my iPad 2, I lost all my texts, picture and a book I was writing on iA Writer. How do I get these things back? I'm very distraught and angry!

I need help figuring this out! Going from OS5 to OS6 has cost me a lot of grief!

Pictures are meant to be uploaded to your computer for safekeeping.
Contacts should be synched to your contact manager app on your computer or a cloud service.
ITunes media should be synched to your computer.
Not sure where the data for iA writer is stored, but would have investigated this prior to updating my software for sure.
If cannot get back your data by restoring your phone from your most recent backup, then the data are gone.

I lost all my photos in iPhoto after I updated the iPhoto thumbnails. How do I get my pictures back?

After I updated the thumbnails, my iPhoto could not even open, but when I did, all my photos were gone. Is there a way to recover those photos that I lost?

Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

I have an ipod that i changed my ID on it and my computer had some issues so I reset it and not my ipod reset when I updated the software and I cant find my purchases of movies and music please help

I changed my email awhile back and have been using it fine until the other day i had to wipe my computer clean and when I downloaded the Itunes and pluged in my ipod I lost all my purchased items. where can i find them and get them back

They would only be where you put them.
Use your backup copy to put everything back.
If or some reason you failed to do the basics and maintain a backup, then you can redownload purchased music in some countries:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
You only get one download of movies. It is your responsibility to backup your purchases.

HT201210 iPhone gets stuck in recovery mode when I update the software (last 3 updates and with 2 different phones) and I have to take it into the store. What's the problem?

I have downloaded the most recent version of iTunes to my laptop and am smart enough to have backed up my entire phone to my laptop before updating the iOS software, but this is the third time that a software update has bricked my phone (first an iPhone 4S then a 5) and I don't have the time to go to the Apple store and wait for my everything to restore. I am running Windows updates and will restart my laptop to retry the connection between my iPhone and iTunes, but looking for suggestions.

Yeah same exact problem as me. EXACTLY. In a way I'm glad more than just me are having the problem so I know it's probably not on my end and on the apple side....I HOPE that is what it is.
MAN, a whole day and a half???? Crap I need my phone to work....
I really think it's the apple servers because it errors 3014 right when iTunes says "verifying phone....." something.... It goes away so fast I can't read the rest, but I think that is the step where it verifies phone to the apple servers, which are overloaded, I assume.
It's gotta be that. How many other people are having this same exact issue?

I downloaded 4.0.1 and lost all my Yahoo toolbar apps but still have the Yahoo search bar. How can I get the apps back? Refreshing the "gear" does nothing.

I have Windows XP and downloaded Firefox 4.0.1. After it was installed 5/7/11, I noticed all my Yahoo search bar apps were missing. Rebooting did not help. Neither did the "gear" on the toolbar next to the yellow Yahoo search box. Internet Explorer browser still shows them. How can I get the apps back in Firefox?

I have Windows 7, the Yahoo toolbar has been working fine until today now all my apps are missing.
Refreshing the toolbar does nothing.

I lost all of my iPad apps when I updated the software.
