    Select your email under Account, tap Edit at the top then New Mailbox at the bottom. This will only work if you have an IMAP email account.

  • Why don't I have my App Store apps after upgrading to iOS5?

    I just upgraded my iphone to iOS5. Before upgrading I created a backup in iTunes. After upgrading I restored from backup. All of the apps I downloaded/purchased from the App store are now missing on my iPhone Only the core apps that come preinstalled on iOS5 are present.
    However, all the music, contacts, and photos that were previously on my iphone are still there (ie the contents and settings in the core apps have been restored). Also, folders that I had previously put core apps into have been recreated.
    Does this point to any error I made in the upgrade process? I didn't transfer purchases from iPhone to iTunes when prompted before the upgrade, nor do I sync apps between iPhone and iTunes. I assumed all this content would be included in the backup.

    To answer my own question. Yes, the steps I took prior to upgrade were insufficient to have my apps restored after the upgrade. I should have checked sync apps in iTunes or manually transferred purchases from iPhone to iTunes prior to upgrade.
    This thread helped with my understanding

  • Help! I've just upgraded to iOS5 and lost all my contacts, app, music etc.

    For the past few years I've known I need to upgrade to a new mac. My old one was a old mac mini (pre Intel).
    So I just bought a new mac mini and tried connecting my iPhone to it.
    I allowed it to do the upgrade to iOS5 (my old mac wouldn't allow me to upgrade and it can't even upgrade iTunes).
    As soon as it upgraded I realised I've lost everything!
    Not a problem I thought - I can retrieve the backup from the old mac. However, when I plug in the iPhone to the old mac I get a message that this is a newer version of iOS and therefore iTunes needs to be upgraded. But I haven't been able to upgrade iTunes on the old mac for a few years.
    So iTunes won't even acknowledge that there is an iPhone plugged in to it.
    Looking on forums people say just connect to iCloud and all your contacts will be there. I don't have an iCloud account - there was no such thing as iCloud on my old mac.
    This really is awful.

    A quick update : The iPhone wasn't actaully mine - it was my girlfriends. She is now furious at me for losing all her data. I managed to recover some of the contacts by copying them across from the SIM but it appears that the most important thing was an app - a password keeper that held all the information for accessing all of our bank accounts.
    There must be somethng I can do?

  • Everytime I try to update to iOS5 on my iPhone 4 I get an error containing 0xE while it is trying to backup data from the iPhone.  I have done everything suggested in Apple support.  How can I upgrade to iOS5 without losing all the data on my phone?

    Everytime I try to update to iOS5 on my iPhone 4 I get an error containing 0xE while it is backing up data from the iPhone before installing the new operating system.  I have done everything suggested in Apple support with no success.  I still get the error everytime (about 5 minutes into backing up iPhone data).  How can I upgrade to iOS5 without losing all the data on my iPhone (the error message says that if I continue I will lose all data on the phone)?  If I have already synced the phone before upgrading the OS, would I be able to restore my data after installing the new OS by syncing after the OS upgrade is complete?  Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

    I had the same problem today and was able to resolve it without having to do a restore or reset. The problem had something to do with my mail accounts. The upgrade reset my mail settings, switching both my gmail and my .mac mail to "archive all mail". I went into the General Settings, disabled that setting, and resynced the phone. The "other" storage allottment dropped back down to less than a gig.
    Before you restore or reset, I would try that first.

  • How do I get my apps back after sync to MBP, Upgrade to iOS5?

    After Sync'ing my iPhone 4 to MBP, I upgraded to iOS5 on the iPhone and Lion on the MBP.  Now, my icons for iPhone apps are on the MBP.  I don't see how to get them back to the iPhone.  The former "Apply" button has disappeared.  What is the new procedure?

    Two things that I did wrong:
    1) I was in iTunes, clicked on the left navigation bar for Apps and expected to see something like "Apply".  This was incorrect.  I needed to click on my iPhone under Device in the Left Nav bar, and then, click on Apps in the top nav listing.  Then I could see my apps.  And,
    2) I could see that my apps had actually sync'd but they inexplicably sinc'd to a 3rd/4th/and 5th screen leaving the second screen nearly empty, so I thought they had never sync'd at all.
    So, I'm back in business.  Thanks to replyer.

    2nd generation ipod touch is pretty much no good anymore?  It is not able to upgrade to iOS5.1 and so will not work with many Apps in the iTunes store?  Is there a way to find out if the App will work before you download?

    Look to the app developer to provide that information when browsing the iTunes Store.
    The iPod Touch still works, so what's your problem with it? It still works with older apps, it still does what it's intended to do.
    If you aren't happy then sell it and buy a new one.

  • After upgrading to iOS5.1 on iPad I cannot upgrade apps

    Really frustrated, I have an iPad 1 and have been using it very hapily for over a year.
    I foolishly decided to upgrade to ios5, and since then have nothing but problems.
    Apps that I have downloaded from the AppStore as free trials work, but when i try to upgrade to the full (paid) version, they just have the thinking spinning circle on the screen, and these are new apps/games since the upgrade and I dont even get the prompt for my ID and password coming up
    Any help would be gratefully received
    Thanks

    Download and install any free app. That should do it.

  • Ipad 1 upgrade to ios5 now video app won't open at all

    I upgraded to ios5. Took forever but loaded up. I went to open up video app which had an itunes bought TV series on it. The white whirring wheel comes up then the screen goes completely blank. When I sync my videos - some itunes bought, some of my own projects - appear to sync but you can't even open the app on the ipad.
    The programmes are still in itunes so I've tried restoring, restarting, resynching. Absolutely nothing works.
    Does anyone know what's going on? This is very frustrating as I mainly use the ipad to demonstrate video work.

    For starters, try quitting the videos App and then restart.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    If the videos are all in your iTunes library on your computer you could also try removing them all from the iPad and sync them back one at at time and see if you can find the one that is causing the problem. However - this is based on the assumption that one of the videos is causing the problem.
    There may have been an error when the TV series was downloaded and that might be causing a problem as well. If you are in the U.S., I suppose that you could delete the series and download it again in the purchased tab of iTunes - if you wanted to try that.
    I would try deleting them from the iPad and add them back one at a time first.

  • After upgrade to ios5, none of the apps will load.  Touching an icon does not open the app; it just blinks and returns to the screen.

    Go to the App Stor and download an app- any free app will do, it doesn't matter.
    Doing this usually "resets" your device's "app awareness" and you should be able to run any app with no problem.
    And no, you don't have to keep that free one you just downloaded.  You can delete it if you don't want it.

  • I upgraded to Ios5 and have lost my contacts and other app profiles - is there any way to get them back from the backup taken before the IOS5 process started?

    I upgraded to IOS5 and have lost my contacts and other app profiles - is there any way to get them back from the backup taken before the IOS5 process started?

    Thanks but have tried that - When I try to restore I get a -50 error and into a loop of taking another back up.  I took a copy of the back up before the IOS upgrade and have it stored on my desk top but I cannot get Itunes to restore to that back up
    Any ideas how I can do this?

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
