You could use Time Machine to go back in time when your iTunes still had the apps and restore the folder from this backup. The folder is called "Mobile Applications" in user/music/itunes.
Or download them again for free: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

Developers control which versions of their app is in the store. If a developer releases a new version and pulls the old version then it will no longer be available in the store.
If you sync the device that has the older app in ITunes on your computer and choose to transfer purchases, you will then have your own saved copy of the app. Then, sync the other device and select to install that app from the list of locally saved purchases.

I Forgot Some Apps I Paid For

Hi. I forgot some apps I paid for and I don't think I have it backed up in iTunes. How do you display just the apps you paid for? If a query like that is not possible, is there another way to display just your paid apps?
There're only two buttons on App Store- Free and $x.xx (x is a variable which stands for the amount and currency, so xx.xx for other currencies), I think there should be a third button named Paid so that there's no confusion between Free because it is totally free/Lite version or Free because it was already paid for. Thank you in advance.

How do I undo an iPhone iTunes sync? Most of my apps were deleted!

I am migrating from Windows XP to Windows 7. I restored my iTunes Music and Video library, now I'm trying to setup iPhone and iPad sync'ing.
When I tried to sync music to my iPhone, iTunes gave me an error saying this phone is associated with another iTunes Library. This is
referreing to my old XP library.
When I did a "sync" of my music, most of my apps were deleted. How do I restore these? How do I tell iTunes that I want that the
"other" iTunes library (under XP) is gone. Do I need to restore some other files/directories to get devices to sync without deleting
stuff?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I am VERY frustrated right now!
Thanks,
Gary

You should have put all of your apps on the new computer.
Whatever is not on the new computer will not be on your iphone.
If you failed to put your apps on your new computer, then you will have to redownlaod them.

Most of builtin apps including App store disappeared - Restriction is off

Device: iPhone4S
OS: 7.0.6
Hi,
I was working with my phone and all of the sudden I was not able to open Safari anymore.
I closed all the apps including Safari and tried to reopen the app but no success. I restarted the phone and after that most of my built-in apps and some of other apps, i.e. Facebook disappeared.
To save your time .. I already checked my settings for "Restriction" and also did "Reset Home Screen Layouts" but no success.
When I go to settings, I can see the apps (i.e. Facebook or Notes) are installed.
How can I get the apps back?

Make a backup. Restore it as new via iTunes. Update the iOS. Restore your backup.

My iPod deleted most of my apps!

This morning I woke up and most of my apps were gone! Thankfully I have iCloud so I just installed them all again..... Does anyone know what happened? I have a iPod touch 4th gen that is running iOS 5. Thanks!

Connect the iPod to your computer and look at the storage used by the various categories as shown in the colored bargarph in iTunes.
If the "other" category is greater than about 1 1/2 GB that usually indicates that the "other" includes corrupted files. Usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.
To restore from backup see:
iOS: How to back up

Still most company-specific apps are only for Andr...

Are there any plans to make Windows phone more popular for app developers? Still most company-specific apps are only made for Android and Iphone.
Coming from a Symbian phone, the Lumia 710 was a big disappointment, especially the navigation apps which still aren't restored to what we had several years ago. Slowly slowly the navigation is getting better only for WP 8 phones, but as long as Lumia isn't interesting for app developers, it isn't interesting for me either.

Hi,
Why do you say that Windows Phone isn't interesting for developers? Windows Phone is already the second most sold mobile system on several important markets, like the huge market of emergent countries. As a matter of fact Windows Phone is outselling iOS in markets like South America, for instance. I think is just a matter of time 'til companies realize that.

HT201342 What happens to the apps I paid for because I did restore and backup iPad and now they have gone

My I pad did a system restore last nite and now I carnt recover some of the things I have paid for how do I get them back

Nope, the apps stay there until you delete them.
I currently sync 2 iPhones and 2 iPod Touch units all to one iTunes store account, and per the Apple licensing, they all can run apps I have purchased. I had a similar question as you when I first started using multiple devices, so I sent an email to the app author for the app I wanted most to do this with. His response was that this is Apple's terms, so if I didn't want to purchase a second license to use his app on a second device, then I didn't need to (but he wouldn't stop me if I wanted to either). In the end, I found this app author to be very dedicated to his app, and very responsive to my comments/requests, so I did purchase a second copy of his app (yes, I had my wife create an iTunes account and purchase it under her account).

Retrieve an App previously paid for

Hello,
I have 1 Iphone and an account with Apple. I have considered purchasing more software and hardware from you product range as I like what you offer. How ever since owning the Iphone and purchasing one software purchase as an experiment I do not feel like I would like to continue using your products. Why do I feel this way:
1) Today I rang your Australian office 133 622, to ask how I could retrieve the previous paid game (ATC 4). Whilst on the phone waiting in the que I was disconnected without warning. i rerang the number and went through the menu again and waited about a minute before being disconnected again. You may tell me that the system is disconnecting me due to an overload in your system but from my perspective its about customer service. I am sure you understand!
2) When I purchased the game (ATC 4) from apple store it functioned well and was enjoyable but unfortunately my iphone had to be reset due to some software update issues at the time (Which I also had to ring Apple about). After the iphone reset there was no facility that I was aware of at the time which allowed me to reinstall my paid version of the game. Today I see that there is a way to retrieve software from 18 months of purchase. My complaints also extend to the software being able to be retrieved at anytime during my account activation. I paid for it and it should be available otherwise why would I want to do it again?
The reason for my complaint today is to let you know the above but also to tell you that because of this lack of service, and lack of paid software previously paid for, it gives me no confidence to purchase more software ie TomTom apps etc for the Iphone or any other hardware and software using this surrent system because if I have a further reset of my iphone etc there is no guarantee I can recover what I paid for.
I would appreciate a reply when you are ready, thank you.

Why am I unable to download any of the apps having paid for my subscription?

I have paid for my annual subscription.
The desktop is only showing trial versions of the apps.
When I ask to download an app the words 'downloading' appear on the screen but there is no downloading going on for Premier Pro.
In Design seems to have downloaded, but now it is showing as a trial version even though I left it downloading all last night and this morning it said it was fully up to date.
I can't get in to Premier Pro at all! I had a previous trial version of Premier Pro on my Mac that has now run out - could this interfere).
Extremely frustrated. Hoping there is a simple solution.
Thanks

No option to download the app I paid for

I signed up for Creative Cloud in order to download and use After Effects. After having gone through the whole process, my bill and account show that I am subscribed to use AE but I can find no option for actually downloading AE. It doesn't show up on my apps page, and the "download now" options in both confirmation emails just lead back to that same AE-less app page. Not sure why this is, and getting rather annoyed by it since I've paid for a product that it's not letting me access.

Which operating system? Could it be Windows 7 32 bit?
After Effects CS6 and Premiere Pro CS6 require a 64-bit operating system and processor to be installed and run.
After Effects CS6 and Premiere Pro CS6 not available for installation for 32-bit systems
