IPhone 3G corrupted, including the apps that came on phone.

Apple Genius Guy told me to set it up as a new device, but to back up first. I did but I have lost all of my contacts and photos. Can someone help please?

Correct. An app can only be updated under the Apple ID that was used to orginally acquire the app. If that is a problem you can delete the app and download again under the new userid. If you paid for the app you will have to pay again. Your old Apple ID does not go away so there is no reason to not use it to download the apps.
You cannot delete the apps that came with IOS. If you want to "hide" the apps simply put the apps into an application folder by dragging one app onto another. You can do this to all the IOS apps.

  • The Apple ID has been changed on my iPad but the apps won't update with the new id and password, including the apps that came with the iPad so I can't delete and reinstall with new Apple ID

      What do you do if you have bought a used iPad and the apps won't update without the original id and password.  Can't delete the apps that come with the iPad and reinstall them so what do I do?

    OK, check Settings - General - Reset - Reset Home Screen Layout.

    Just be sure to do a complete sync using iTunes and storing the backup locally on the computer. A local copy of every app will be stored, together with the rest of the stuff from the phone. Later, when you get the new phone, plug it in immediately with iTunes running: it will recognize that the phone is new and offer to restore from the stored backup. Those apps that don't get installed automatically as part of the restore, you can manually install from the local copy.
    Works flawlessly on a Mac. I guess same thing should occur on a Windoze PC, but I don't sleep with the Enemy.
    Edit: be sure the computer has enough juice to finish the restore. On another thread, a participant tried to do the above, computer died midway, screwed the process up.

  • Suddenly the apps I downloaded won't work. The screen "blinks" for a second as if the app is loading, and then returns to the home screen. All the apps that came with the iPod seem to be working fine. How to get them all working again?

    First try a hard reset.  To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    If still no luck, try downloading another free app from the App Store.

    Lastly, try to restore the iPod from a previous backup or restoring it to factory settings.

  • I purchased my iMac using the same (and only) Apple ID I use to purchase apps. Third-party apps update fine, but the apps that came with my iMac (iPhoto, iMovie, etc) bring up a message saying I have to log in with the account I used to purchase them.

    I used my only Apple ID to purchase my iMac (Intel-based one).  I've never been able to update core apps that came with it.  I can update third party apps I've bought (like Coda), but when I try to update Garage Band, iPhoto, iMovie and so on, a popup message appears saying "You have updates available for other accounts" and "Log in with the account you used to purchase this app in order to update it", or similar (see screenshot above).
    The OS seems to get its updates fine - it's just the core apps from the App Store.
    I've only ever had one Apple ID, so I have no idea what to do.  I went to ask the Genius bar at my local Apple store, and they couldn't help, and insisted that I must have purchased the iMac using a different account, but I definitely didn't.  There are a few posts on non-Apple forums of this happening to other people, so it must be a rare bug.
    I'm a little concerned it may affect my ability to update from Lion to Mountian Lion.  Can anyone help?

    Have you done a Disk Repair and a Disk Permissions Repair?
    If that doesn't resolve the problem I would suggest calling customer support about this issue as it is most likely on their (Apple's) end that the problem exists. 

  • I cannot update the apps that came installed with my MacBook Air

    When Software Update says I have apps to update, it will not let ne update the ones that came installed with my macbook air, OS 10.8.2. App stare says to login as the user who originally purchased, yet I am logged in as that user. Have tried loggin out and back in but that does not work. Any ideas?

    Hello ,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    To reinstall the iWork applications that came with your computer, simply follow the directions below to get them back.
    Mac App Store
    Open Mac App Store.
    Click Purchases at the top of the window. Your purchased apps will appear.
    Click Install or Download.
    Download past purchases
    Take care,

  • HT2471 How do I recover my Mac Book Pro back to the day I purchased it? Will I lose the apps that came with this Mac Book when I recover it?

    How do I recover my Mac Book Pro back to the day I purchased it? Will I lose apps that came with the Mac Book if I recover it?

    Press the command and r keys when turning on your Macbook.  Do not release those keys until you see the apple logo...
    Disk Utility will pop up.....Your choices are to reinstall, you will not lose anything....
    if however, you decide to format/erase your drive, then reinstall, you will lose everything...
    suggestion - back everything up and do a clean install.
    good luck

  • Is there a way to remove the apps that came with my ipod?

    so you know how when you hold down the home button then all the apps become shaky with the little white X in the corner of them to delete it? Well i was wondering if there is a way to delete the apps that come with the ipod already loaded onto it and dont show up with and X and only shake. Because i never use some of them and they are just taking up space but i dont know if you can delete them. is there a way? thanks!

    You can go to settings, general, restrictions, and then enable the restrictions. You can then choose what you want visible on your home screen. To bring back what you've restricted, simply go back to settings, disable the restriction, and it'll be regular again.

  • How can I c my note from the app that came with the phone

    I broke my phone n have thongs saved in the app notes that come on the phone how I can c them

    The MOD files are actually mpeg2 files and should be able to be converted using mpegstreamclip, although you may have to manually change the file extension to mpg.
    mpegstreamclip can be d/l at http://www.squared5.com
    you can get the qt mpeg2 component at http://www.apple.com/quicktime/mpeg2
    Alternatively you could try Karsten's method of importing mpeg2 into imovie.

    Since on my computer I had to create a new admin account,  I had to go into the shortcut properties of Itunes.  Then hit Compatibility Tab.  Had to check Run as Admin.  
    After hitting Change settings for all users it worked just fine.

  • None of the Apps that I've downloaded will load?

    They all quit immediately after being opened. Help? (The Apps that came with the phone do load -> mail, etc.)

    Try a restart of the device or reset prior to restoring... it may just resolve the issue and save you some time.    

  • I accidentally deleted the 'Calendar' app that came with my iPhone 4S.  How do I re-install it?

    I was wondering how I can reinstall the 'Calendar' app that came (already loaded) on my iPhone 4S?

    You can't delete the Calendar App. Do a search for Calendar in to iPhone search screen (before the first App screen). You may have placed it in a folder or moved it to another screen.
    If you have problems you can use Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout.
