I lost my apps ability to work when I synced. I'm really confused at Itunes and synching. How do I get my apps back?

I tried to sync my ipad with my computer and it seemed to disable my ipad apps.
Any help for how to restore them?

Your original post wasn't clear as to what the problem was - did/does 'disable' mean that none of the apps on your iPad now work, that all the apps were deleted from the iPad, or something else ?
A number of people have reported that (usually after an iOS upgrade) none of their downloaded apps then worked on the iPad - tapping on the icons would just open the app for a fraction of a second and then you'd be returned back to the homescreen. That problem was usually fixed by going into the App Store app on the iPad and downloading any new free app, as that appeared to reset/fix something on the iPad, and the apps would then start working again. If this isn't the problem that you were having then obviously you don't need to do this.

The photos in my IPhoto have all become mini-thumbnails and I can't open or edit them. When I print the image it comes out normal size. How do I get the thumbnails back to the standard size and be able to work with them?

What version of iPhoto and system are you running? On the guess that you're running the latest iPhoto, 9.4.2, Try the following:
1 - launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the thumnails, Option #2.
2 - It may take 2-3 attempts so don't give up after only one attempt.

Somehow my wife has ended up with some of my apps on her iPhone, and I have some of her apps on my iPhone. So, when I update apps on my phone, some of them ask me for her apple ID password. How do I get her apps off my phone.

Do you guys use the same computer with itunes on it? And the best way to get them off is to go into the Setting>Itunes & App Store and sign out of her appleid if it's listed there. Also just delete all of the apps from her appleid off your phone.

HT1977 I downloaded an app on my PC, signed into my iTunes account, but when I connect my iPhone and click sync, it won't copy to my phone. How can I get this app to install on my phone?

Your phone connected, iTunes running, under the "Apps" tab, you've selected this app to install on your phone, correct? Hit the "Apply/Sync" button, lower right on the Apps tab, what happens?

HT203167 I lost my ringtones from my phone when I upgraded to iOS 6 on my iPhone 4. They are still on my computer, but won't re-transfer back to the phone. I'm using the correct iTunes account. How do I get my ringtones back on my phone?

How do I get my ringtones back on my phone?
I lost my ringtones from my phone when I upgraded to iOS 6 on my iPhone 4. The ringtones are still on my computer and play in iTunes, but they won't re-transfer back to the phone. I'm using the correct iTunes account on both my computer and phone. In the iPhone view of iTunes on my computer, it shows that my phone recognizes that I had those ringtones, but there is an exclamation mark showing that my phone can't find the files. I can't delete these "placeholders" from my phone with the hopes of re-transfering the files back to the phone, either. I cannot just simply re-transfer the files from my computer back to the phone. It won't let me using the regular synch options and I can't find anything in the menus of iTunes to help me out either.
Any advice would be much appreciated.

Ignore. I figured it out:)

Lost all my catalog when I D/L'd a trial of Lightroom 5. How do I get my catalg back?

When I installed a trial version of LR 5 it seemed to be copying my catalog from my LR 4.4, but now all my catalog and collections have disappeared from LR4 and are not in LR 5 either. How do I get my catalog and collections back?

Your Lightroom 4.4 catalog file is still on your hard disk, unchanged. You can search for it by opening Lightroom 4.4 and then select File->Open Recent.
Same thing in Lightroom 5, if you use File->Open Recent, it should allow you to open the converted version of your previous Lightroom 4.4 catalog.

I erased everything on my iphone and lost all my contacts pictures and everything how do i get all that back from my itunes account??

I erased everything on my iphone and lost all my contacts pictures and everything else how do i get the contacts and pictures back from my itunes account?? ive tried restore its like it gave me a whole new iphone thing.

If you plug in the iPhone to your computer, any contacts ect that you synced with your computer with sync back with the iPhone when it is selected in the iTunes menu under info. Anything that was added without syncing was lost, I'm sorry. A good future solution is to get iOS 5 when it comes out this fall, so you don't need to manually sync contacts, its automatic!

Can't transfer from iTunes to iPhone4 & How Can I get my apps back?

So, on my old computer, I had all my music on an external drive, and I finally decided to put iTunes on my laptop and just bring the music over especially since the computer just died. I decided to also plug in my iPhone so that it can sync up and I could go through all the steps with that now and not worry about it later - plus I wanted to put on all my Halloween apps that I'd been collecting for the past 3 years...
Well, the music got transferred just fine. I sync up the phone and it tells me that there is an update. I transfer my purchases first before doing the update. While it's doing that, I'm noticing something weird - it's transferring apps that I've had for awhile now. So, I look at my apps, and the only ones there are the ones that were just on my phone, all the others I had were gone!
I update my phone to ios5. It takes EVERYTHING off the phone. And when I say everything, I mean EVERYTHING! The photos I had on there stayed, as did whatever notes I made, and my contacts were all safe along with my prior messages. All the music and videos and apps were taken off. No problem, right? Wrong. I can't seem to transfer anything from iTunes to my iPhone.
So, here's my dilemma:
(1) How do I get all the zillions of apps back when I no longer have the computer that they were originally on?
(2) How do I transfer music/videos/apps from iTunes to my iPhone?
Everything is updated, the computer is authorized, there is obviously space on the iphone.... I'm at a loss. Help! ;__;

Apps and other media can be downloaded again for free, see this article: Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Did you make sure that no restrictions are set on your phone to install apps? Check Settings/General/Restrictions --> App Installation.

Unless you had backed up some of your data to iCloud, there's no way to get it back with the exception of previous iTunes purchases which can be redownloaded.

I have lost all my data in iPhone 4 by wrong passcode attempts now my iphone is reset, then how could I get my data back?

I have lost all my photos and other important datas please please help me

If you have a backup with iTunes you can restore the device from that. If not the data is gone.

When I type it comes out in weird letters and symbols how do I get it back to English?!

When I type k it comes out as an apple logo symbol! And a lot of the letters just come out like this 'ÅÎÓÉ' etc
Please help ASAP!

The only way that I currently know of to remove old and invalid email addresses on the iPad is to restore back to factory defaults, which I assume that you won't want to do. You could try leaving feedback for Apple, and maybe in a future update we'll be able to edit them : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

Ipad locked up as it hasnt backed up. can't reboot or anything to get in and back up

Go to Settings, iCloud, and then Storage and Backup. You will then see a button to backup your iPad. It may be that you have much stuff (i.e. photos, apps) for it to do a full backup but you will be able to tell what the estimated backup should be and what it will consist of so that you can choose to prune down items. If you don't want to backup and get rid of the messages you can just turn backup off from this area as well.

I have lost my iTunes library. How can I get my library back?

My iTunes library was stored on an external hard drive. Given that the MTBF of these drives is probably measured in months, I realize this was a bad decision on my part; nonetheless, it happened. How to I get my library returned to me?

What happened? The drive failed? If you do not have the music backed up some where else, and the drive cannot be accessed there isn't anything for you to do. You'll simply have to re-download what purchased music is available from iTunes and/or re-rip any CDs.
