Lost all my purchased Apps on iPad Air after restoring

Hi,
My iPad just locked itself for some what ever strange reason, and told me to connect it to iTunes. I did so, and it still wouldn't turn on. I tried turning it off and then when turning it on again, I held down the home button (like I was instructed to at Apple Support sites).
When my iPad then came back on, I had to restore it, and all my apps and notes made in pages, were gone.
After a little while of trying to figure out how much I had lost (I bought this iPad Air about 1 month ago), I realised it would not connect my apple ID to Apple store.
Therefore I can not get back any of my previously purchased apps (Pages, Keynote, Visible Body etc)
I tried to look for them on iTunes to see if they could be synchronised there, but without success.
Otherwise the iPad is acting a little strange. Before it had a silent icon in the menu you can pull up from below, and now that icon is missing...
Does anyone know how I can fix this or help me?
Appreciate all help,
Kind regards, Sara

Hello, suffianr78.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.

I've reset my ipad and lost all my in-app purchases

I recently had a problem with my iPad and the Genius at the Apple Store advised that I reboot my iPad "as new" (not from backup) and then get all my Apps again from the "Purchased" section of the App Store. I've done this, but now I seem to have lost all my in-app purchases. E.g. when you pay to get more levels on a game etc. Any ideas how I get these back?

I purchased a new iPad Air. Backed up all my old stuff from my iPad 2. I hooked my new air to my iTunes acct through my laptop

I purchased a new iPad Air. Backed up all my old stuff from my iPad 2. I hooked my new air to my iTunes acct through my laptop & all is good until I did the update today. I show apps that need updates, which before they updated automatically. So when trying to updating it asked for my apple password. I kept Putting it in & it said no good. It is using my daughter I'd, not mine. I have checked all my accounts & settings, nothing has her id,just mine. How do I get it to my id?

Copy the iTunes library from your backup as below:
iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.
Sync with the restored library.

My husband bought an iPad 2. I have a Mac. ITunes is in my name but I have turned sharing on. When we updated to OS5 we lost all the free apps that he downloaded in his user name. Is there no way to update using my iTunes without losing his software.

My husband bought an iPad 2. I have a Mac. ITunes is in my name but I have turned sharing on. When we updated to OS5 we lost all the free apps that he downloaded in his user name. Is there no way to update using my iTunes without losing his software. He is frustrated using the iPad because he never knows whether to use his user name or my user name.

Apps are only tied to one account... You can set up two iTunes accounts on your computer, however, and let his iPad sync to his account. If he has never backed up his apps to a computer, however, he will have to redownload all the apps. Afterwards, he can backup to iCloud instead of your computer.

Installed garageband with ALL instruments for FREE on iPad Air but..

Installed garageband with ALL instruments for FREE on iPad Air as was advertised.
I recorded many songs. But after updating the App to 2.0.1 March 10, 2014 i lost my instruments!!!!!
I tried to restore purchase but it says no purchase to restore !!!!
When I try to open my recorded songs it says that these songs contain instruments that are not available for me, and asks me to buy the instrument package for 4.99$
What is the solution?
How can i fix the app?
I don't want to delete the app and install it again to not lose my songs.
Please help,
Regards,

I just got off support with Apple, it appears that you can fix it with the following steps:
Share any projects you have saved on your iPad, you accompish this by the start screen that has your projects on it. In the top left you'll see the share icon (page with up arrow). Select your projects ONE at a time and click the share, and share them to iTunes. Once all projects you want to save are shared, connect the ipad to your computer and lauch iTunes. Select your devices then on the top right click Apps. Scroll down till you see File Sharing. Look for Garageband and select it. You should see all your projects on the right side of the page. Save EACH project to your desktop (or where ever you want to save them).
Once they are saved, eject the ipad, delete garageband ON the ipad and re-install Garageband by DOWNLOADING it from the App store, not from syncing with your iTunes. Once it's re-installed you should THEN be able to redownload the inapp purchases.
You can then bring your projects back over to the ipad after the re-installation of GarageBand and its previously purchased instruments.
Not very elloquent but do you want your projects or not? Good Luck!

I upgraded to iOS 5 and lost ALL of my apps even though they were backed up to Itunes during the process. Whenever I plug my ipad into my computer the apps that appear in Itunes are from my ipod touch. How can I get my apps back without purchasing them again?

On your iPad and iPod touch tap Settings > Store
Make sure Music is switched On under Automatic Downloads.
Now restart your iPad and your iPod touch.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

I have lost all my purchased movies and tv shows on my iTunes

Please help as i have lost all my purchases on my apple tv how do i recover these?

Downloading (using iOS or computer) past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store - http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 - enabled with iTunes 10.3 and newer; not all media formats are available in all countries (see: iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match Availability by Country - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085); apps, books (not audiobooks), music, t.v. shows, and movies (some - not all studios have permitted this). Downloading previously purchased movies and TV shows requires iTunes 10.6 or later. Discontinued items not available. For items not included in the iCloud list (e.g., ringtones, audiobooks), or locations or computer systems where iCloud is not (yet?) available, you only get one download per fee paid. Apple notes it is your responsibility to back up your purchases.
Select the store on the left side of iTunes.
Click on Purchased on the right side under Quick Links.
You can re-download your available previous purchases.
If the above doesn't work, it is reported iTunes Support permitting a second download when asked nicely, but they are in no way obligated to do this. Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; select 'iTunes' in the first column; 'iTunes Store' in the second column; third column click 'Purchases, Billing & Redemption' and proceed from there.

I lost all my purchased songs when my hard drive. Can I get another copy from Apple?

I lost all my purchased songs when my hard drive. Can I get another copy from Apple?

Quite possibly, at least assuming you are based in the US. Install the latest build of iTunes, sign into the iTunes Store and click the Purchased entry in the Quck Links panel. Here in the UK I only get tabs fro Apps and Books but, if I understand correctly, you should also get a tab for Music. Click on the Not in My Library button and you should be able to download your purchases again.
