Ios 5 upgrade lost my backup and i no longer have any purchased apps help?

did the upgrade to the new ios 5 and found it that it could not find my backup that it had made just before the installation...and now that the upgrade is done i have no idea where all my purchased apps went?

Apps are not included in the backup, nor is any itunes content.
You should always make sure that everything is on your computer before updating.
If you have failed to do this, then you will have to redownload. Open itunes store, click Purchased under Quick Links

Upgraded to ios5 and I no longer have the clock app

I upgraded my iPad 1 to iOS 5.1.1 and I no longer have the clock app and some of the other
standard apps

Fair enough. Have a look around the App Store fore decent replacements, often better.

I upgraded to Mavericks from 10.6.8 and I no longer have any of my mail folders in macmail. If I look up an email via spotlight, I can find it, so it's in there. How do I restore my folders?

I upgraded to Mavericks from 10.6.8 and I no longer have any of my mail folders in macmail. If I look up an email via spotlight, I can find it, so it's in there. How do I restore my folders?

As an update: I was able to find my archived boxes and emails on my hard drive by doing this:
Open a Finder window.
Select Go | Go to Folder… from the menu.
Type "~/Library/Mail/V2".
Once I was able to get my macmail working properly, most of my mailboxes appeared, however not all and only a few recent emails are in a few of the boxes.
I really need to move the emails from the archive back into my macmail. When I try to import using the mbox method, it doesn't recognize the .mbox even though they are .mbox. Other than re-emailing each individually to myself, I don't know what to do. Does anyone out there have any suggestions as to some easier solution?

In your situation as you describe it, all you can do is physically look for it. There is no other way to locate it. Sorry.
Hope this helps

There is no way to track your device without Find My iPhone turned on. Here are some suggestions for what you can do at this point:

For some reason my answers to my security questions are not correct and I can't make any purchases. HELP!

I keep getting locked out of my account because my security answers are incorrect. I apparently do not remember the correct answers. HELP! I cannot make any purchases because of this. I cannot reset my password either because I don't know my answers to the security questions. I also do not have a rescue email...

Click here, phone Apple, and ask for the Account Security team.

I changed computers and I no longer have any of my purchases

I got a new laptop and set up the iTunes program. When it asked whether I wanted to Transfer my puchases, I clicked the button saying I wanted to the only problem was it only transfered three of my purchases. I still have all my reciets. What should I do to get my purchases back?

You can't currently transfer purchases/downloads from one account to another account.
When you download past purchases from an account then you will potentially tie the device (or computer if you do it on that) to that account for 90 days : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627
Have you got the ibooks already on your computer and/or on a backup so that you can sync them to your new iPhone ? If not then have you bought anything on your new account yet - could you go back to just using the old account ?

My iphone is broken,and i came to store to change a new one today. When I come home, I found I lost my backup and may be mistake is made during before backup.The information in my previous iphone is really important for me? how can I get the backup back?

If you don't have a backup then the only possible solution is to go back to the store and see if they can get your old phone and create a backup of that. I know very often that Apple employees will wipe the returned iPhones clean before shipping them back to wherever they ship them.
When you say your old phone was "broken" does this mean it is dead and won't turn on?
Do you have a Time Machine backup of your computer, or a clone that might have this info on it?
Other than that I hate to say you may be out of luck. Time Machine and/or a cloning program performed regularily will inevitably save your a** in situations like this.
Good luck

Once I downloaded the new IOS 5.0 I've lost all of my photos that were stored on my PC, and I no longer have access to them on the IPOD. Cannot figure out what has happened. Please help.

Thanks lllaass, but I am not computer literate and do not understand exactly what it is I am supposed to do. All of my photos were stored on Microsoft Windows Live Photo Gallery. When I now access the gallery the only thing that is there are the folders with the title of the folders. The pictures that were in those folders are now gone. I can no longer access them on my IPOD either. My photo library on my IPOD is now empty.
Thanks again for your help.

I updated to ios 6 on my iPod touch earlier and had the same issue. I think iCloud has been backing mine up though. I freaked out because all 500 of my photos were gone and my stupid self didnt do a back up... But then they all reappeared :..) Maybe i just got lucky? Good luck though..

Upgrade lost my "Notes" and email accts - where are they?

and can I get them back?
Next time, what do I do to save things that dont "sync"?

Hi there,
I've done something to my iMac and I'm not quite sure what happened. I went and changed the name on my "home" icon. When i went to my email- it needed keychain permissions- so i said ok. i'm guessing that it deleted my previous account. Ithen went to update some software (safari) and i needed to restart my computer. When it restarted- it opened up clean...email needed to be reset up, iTunes- empty- acts brand new; same with iPhoto- all my pics gone. I was able to find my documents-but no luck on the rest...And when I tried to save a new photo- it is telling me that my hard drive is out of space- leading me to believe that my music and photos must be on there somewhere...
I have searched- but to no avail. Not sure what to do. and I don't have any other "accounts" to open - such as my old name.
Anyone have any ideas?
Much appreciated in advance!

So many issues here!
1. You should never ever change the name of your Home icon - that's the short name of your User Account which is a total no-no. (Why don't Apple issue a grim warning when users try to do this?). Check out these old discussion threads which may contain something of interest or help :
https://discussions.apple.com/message/7069252#7069252
https://discussions.apple.com/message/4675452#4675452
2. This needs recovering from - see the first discussion thread (above). Your User Account is being treated as a new one, but your old data should be there - read the discussion
3. You must have been close to a full HD even before this happened? This is inadvisable - you should always have around 10% of your HD free, or at the very least, OS X will start to slow down dramatically.
Hopefully the first thread above will point you to a fix of your problem.

Since update to 9.3, when I click thumbnails of photos i get an error message that original photo cannot be found. Didn't have this problem prior to upgrade to 9.3 and 9.3.1. Any thoughts?

This is the iPhoto for iOS forum. You should ask in the Mac iPhoto forum. iPhoto for is OS only on version 1.

Upgrading the iOS "over-the-air" was introduced with iOS 5. If you are currently running an iOS version < 5.0 you can only update through iTunes. Connect your iPad to your PC or Mac. Open iTunes and click on "Check for updates"

I have iWork and Ilife, do I have to purchase the iOS for pages, numbers, and keynote too

I am post Mobile Me and I so do not get this icloud. I just upgraded my iphoto and my iwork is the latest version. Do I need to purchase the ios for pages, keynote and numbers too...

Yes.
The apps have to be installed on the Mac and iOS devices in order to open and moodify the documents.
Why purchase again? iWork apps for Mac OS X are not the same as iWork apps optimized for iOS devices. Two different operating systems.

Hi I've just lost my iphone and I don't have Icloud is there anyway to redeem my contacts

Hi I've just lost my iphone and I don't have Icloud is there anyway to redeem my contacts

You have a few options...
1. Hopefully you have done a backup in iTunes which would have stored your contacts
2. Check the email account that you had on the iPhone. For instance with Gmail there is a Sync Contacts option on the iPhone which if turned on, would have sent your contacts from your phone to the contacts in your Gmail, so check your email from a computer to see if they are there.
3. Only other option I can think of is if you have an old phone with contacts still on it.
