I've lost all my apps and music after iOS 5 update?

This morning I updated my iPhone 4 from iOS 4 to iOS 5. It appeared to skip the syncing part of the update and now I've lost all my apps and music. They're still on my iTunes but my iPhone won't sync - it shows steps 2 and 3, and thn just stops. Help?

No, you media like apps and music should be OK. For the problem see:

  • I have upgraded my iTunes for Windows and I have lost all my apps and music

    I have upgraded my iTunes for Windows and I have lost all my apps and music.
    Although i signed in with my iTunes account, i can see only 5 apps (that i downloaded in the last 2-3 days), although on my iPad and iPhone i have more than 100 apps.
    If i connect my devices to iTunes, the syncronisation will be made the other way, from iTunes to iPhone/iPad, so i will lose everything.
    1. How can i restore these apps from the iCloud back-ups from my devices to my iTunes? Or any other method possible?
    2. If you can also give me a suggestion about how to find my music playlists, that would save me from a lot of useless work on creating them again.
    Thank you!

    Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
    Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
    In the unlikely event that all the media has been inexplicably and permanently removed from your computer, see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.
    When you get it all working make a backup!

  • I lost all my apps in itune after the update

    HI,
    I lost all my apps, music and videos after I updated itunes.  How can I get back all my content I purchased?
    Thanks,

    It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup copy of your computer.
    If for some reason you have failed to do this, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:

  • TS1702 Lost all my documents in pages after ios update on both iphone and ipad

    Have anyone else had that problem? And what did you do? (Except from crying)

    Eek! I don't know how I save as a file, so no. As for iCloud , I did back up last week but am not too sure if it was before or after the update.  I don't even know know how to find out what was backed up on iCloud. I will look in to that now. Thankyou.

    Hey there Shomail,
    It sounds like you are wanting to copy your content from your iPad to your computer. You can trasnfer your iTunes purchases from the device to the computer with the following article:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1848
    To transfer iTunes Store purchases from your device to a computer, follow these steps:
    Connect your device to the computer. If it is synced with another iTunes library, the following dialog may appear:
    Click the Transfer Purchases button.
    Important: Clicking Erase and Sync will delete any existing content currently on your device. The content will be replaced with whatever existing content is in the current iTunes library your device is connected to. If there is no content in the iTunes library, nothing will be synced to your device, and your device will be empty.
    Please note that this feature works only for items that were purchased on the iTunes Store. Any items imported from audio CDs or acquired from other sources will not copy from your device to the iTunes library. Please see this article for more details.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

  • Hello i just came back from the apple store and they had to restore my phone and i just downloaded all my apps and music back but my photos that are on icloud i only got 80 out of 768 back. what do i do to get all of them back?

    hello i just came back from the apple store and they had to restore my phone and i just downloaded all my apps and music back but my photos that are on icloud i only got 80 out of 768 back. what do i do to get all of them back?

    If you tried to restore to your iCloud backup and your photos didn't fully restore, first go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup and make sure it isn't still in the process of restoring.
    If the restore is complete and all your photos weren't restored, all you can do is try restoring the backup again.  You might try the solution posted by ezjules in this discussion: https://discussions.apple.com/message/19518589#19518589.  This involves opening the photos app after the phone restarts and you provide the passwords for your Apple IDs, then leaving it open for the remainder of the restore process.
