Is there a way i can organise my apps in itunes?
Hi, I'm pretty sure i've looked everywhere in itunes to see if there is a way to organise the thousands of iOS Apps I have but so far I cannot see one. Can someone shed light on how to best organise apps so that you can for example, put games you like in one place, apps you don't like in another, as well as add them to an iOS device from these organised categories (ie: I'd like to create a category that I would just dump to all my iOS devices)...
It seems very painful to scroll through 1000s of applications in a tiny tiny window that I cannot make full screen or eliminate things I don't want to look at 'now' and then have to do this many times separately for every iOS device I have. Basically my iTunes is totally useless as it is unless I want to spend 12 hours for each device...
I am not asking how to organise them on the iOS device itself via iTunes - even with 16 files per folder that itself is painful, but not as painful as having to deal with iTunes as already stated.
offtopic: is there a way in iTunes I can show only free things? I do buy things, but I want to see free things only on occasions - such as in search results.
Any suggestions? (my devices are not jailbroken and have no wish to, so please suggest things that work on non-jailbroken devices thanks)

You cannot.

Delete the apps you don't use and don't get every single app in the store.

I recently updated ibook in my Itunes. Now, every time I sync, I get the message that it won't update the ipod as ibook won't run in OS6. Is there any way I can revert the ibook app in itunes so it quits trying to install the current ibook app. I am trying to stop getting the warning message. I am also concerned if I ever have to reinstall the app.
Delete the app from the iTunes library on your computer and then transfer the version from iPod to computer by:

Locate them in the Windows Explorer, move or copy those files as you would any other, and drag them into the open iTunes window when the second library is loaded. If you're using two iTunes libraries on one user account, you only need to locate the files; otherwise, they need to be put in a shared area.

I have an external server that stores all my movies and music, is there a way to stream it to my apple tv?
If not is there a way I can link the folders to itunes (without downloading files to computer) that will make them view-able for the apple TV?
If none of that works is there a way to get it working alternativly?
Additional Information:
Everything is linked via ethernet cable.
I'm using a PC to set it up.
If you have any other questions feel free to ask and I'll help where I can.
Thank you for any help(I think the daughter got he better end of the deal!) I believe if you change the password and user id one of the devices it will stop that from occurring. But I'm not the one to tell you how to do it; someone like "Illaass" (Illaass seems to know how to correct / fix almost anything!) will know how if you don't. Just look for the "cat" icon.

Is there a way I can view all apps I have ever downloaded?
Is there a way I can view all apps I have ever downloaded? Like some sort of historical list associated to my account?
It would help a great deal- I restored my phone from a backup after my iphone crashed- but I had downloaded many apps since then, so now I have to re-download all the missing apps. Thing is I cant remember all of them?
Anone else have the same problem?Have you never synced your phone? Syncing puts copies of each app into iTunes for you to manage and have available to sync over when you want.
Other than that, in iTunes, from top menus (forget which one, think under help) you can access your account and then view purchase history. -
I recently bought a new computer and my other one crashed. All my songs, apps, videos and moviesa are gone but they are still on my iPod Touch 4G. Is there any way I can transfer them to my iTunes Library? (Most of them haven't been purchased)
Use 3rd party software like:

For items purchased (including apps) from iTunes:

If your phone is offline, the ONLY way to find it is to look for it the old fashioned way. Your phone CANNOT be located electronically if it's offline.

I am running 10.7.5 on an imac and I want to upgrade to Yosemite but I have no app store on my computer. Is there a way I can get the app store on my imac?
If you don't have it then you will have to reinstall Lion:
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks or Yosemite without erasing drive
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks, or Yosemite
OS X Yosemite- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
if possible because it isthree times faster than wireless.
Then you can download and install Yosemite if your computer meets the system requirements:
Upgrading to Yosemite
You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
Upgrading to Yosemite
To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite 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.
OS X Mavericks/Yosemite - System Requirements
Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Yosemite
1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?

Is there a way you can change your app locations on iTunes?
It's tedious when trying to drag an app that you really like past 4 'pages' of apps to the 1st page.
HI,
Is there a way you can change your app locations on iTunes?
Yes. Connect your iPhone to your computer, launch iTunes. Select your iPhone under Devices on the left. Select "Apps" in the menu. You can drag apps to any of the home screens you want, then click: Apply bottom right corner of the iTunes window.

ive deleted movies from itunes which has removed them from apple tv, i still have them on my ipad, is there any way i can get them back into itunes?
If the movies were rentals then no.
If the movies are purchases and you have the iTunes 10.4 then you should be able to access the 'cloud' option from in the main iTunes page - purchases - (upper right corner) and go from there.
You should also have the option to transfer purchases from the iPad back into iTunes. I don't have an iPad but you can transfer purchases from the iPod/iPhone back to iTunes.

Is there a way I can still install apps from the Applications disc on Mavericks?
A few weeks ago, I was installing a new SSD into a 2009 MBP. I reinstalled Snow Leopard from the disc that came with the computer and proceeded to upgrade to Mavericks. Unfortunately, unbeknownst to me, you cannot install the iLife applications (namely, iPhoto) from the Applications disc once you upgrade past Snow Leopard. Is there a way I can still install these applications without having to buy them through the app store?
Pacifist may be able to do it - it does cost money

*I have tried a few ways shown on iTunes help sites like.. going into HD Movies and going through all these diffent tabs.
*I bought all my movies before iCloud allowed to store movies.
I was wondering if there was anyway you can re-download them from my iTunes account mainly.. I tried going into the recipts but it didn't work obviously
PLEASE SOMEONE SAY I CAN GET THEM AGAIN!!! SO MANY HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS MOVIES I CANT FIND NOW !!Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can only currently redownload movies if you are in the US. -
im just trying to retreive my pictures and download them to my computer, but i need to unlock my phone to do so and the only way that can be done is by unlocjing it through itunes
To import pictures from phone to computer you do not use itunes (you only use itunes to put them back on the iphone). Your computer should recongize the iphone as a camera capable device and allow you to import pictures.
If on a Windows > click start button > click computer > and under computer there should be your iphone listed > right click on it and hit import pictures and videos
Follow steps in camera wizard
