Lost my apps when I upgraded my iPhone 4 with ios6 any idea how I can get the apps back

Lost my apps when I upgraded my iPhone 4 with ios6 how do I get them to reflect on my home screen

Another way is to just easily go the App Store on your iphone or ipad and look under purchased arrow. Click on it and all your apps you've downloaded or purchased are right there, no connection needed. Just hit the icloud button and download them. The reason I think you "lost" them is you forgot to back them up to your original back up on your mac in itunes.
I can now see all my apps via icons right in itunes, which is cool for me.
If your apps are in itunes then they should, should have backed up to your restore. If they didn't that's weird.
Too many people are screwing up the update by not SLOWLY reading the instruction options when they begin, not Apples fault. Also, so many people are impatient and thinking that when it says "restoring" "backing up" they freak and think they are losing everything and prematurely stop the upgrade, unplug or whatever.
People take a deep breath. This is a MAJOR undertaking for Apple and all of us.
Perspective - over 100 Million iOS devices.... Think about it. No company has attempted to do what they are doing -- all at once.

TS1702 The apps which were due for update won't update when asked on our iPad and the apps remained blacked out. Does anyone have any suggestions how we can get the apps downloaded? We updated the device last week.

Our iPad 2 won't update e apps for some reason they just appear greyed out and won't complete. We have the latest software so can't understand why it won't update.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

And why not? Apple is selling these things like BigMacs. They can't make enough of them. You've been suffering since May because you refuse to get a decent router.
Can you imagine if a company that makes a refrigerator told me that I needed to upgrade my electrical system to rectify a problem with their device? What kind of response IS that?!?!
What if the problem with their device is that it requires a new-fangled "grounded" outlet and your circa 1890 house doesn't have grounded outlets. Would you refuse to purchase a $ 25 adapter on principle?

You can create an Apple ID without a credit card, see this article:

Are you using a Mac? It sounds like you are using his computer to sync to. If this is the case, then it will sync to all of his stuff unless a new user is created with your personal stuff on it.
When you want to sync your iPhone to that computer, switch to your user first, and then everything will sync with your stuff. If he wants to hook up his iPhone to sync it, then he needs to switch back to his own username first.

HT201272 I am using Apple ipod 2nd gen with IOS 4.2.1 . No i recently updated my IOS and all my apps were deleted. Now when i download IBOOKS it needs IOS 5. How do i get the apps which are copatible with IOS 4.2.1 or IPOS 2nd GEN??

You should always have your apps on your computer. If you have failed to keep a copy of the old app versions, then you cannot get them back at all.
Sorry.
Many app makers no longer support the old ios and ipod models

My iphone was restored to its original state and I lost all of my contacts and applications... any ideas how I can get it back??

Why did you restore without transferring your music to your computer?
If you are in the U.S., then you can use the newly released beta version of the cloud to get your music.

I'm unable to download iMovie/iphoto, as i didn't buy the mac brand new, it only gives me the 'accept' button when i try to download, i don't mind purchasing, it just doesn't give me the option. any ideas how i can get around this?

I recently purchased a second hand new macbook air, although it was second hand to me the previous owner had never actually turned it on. So i went through all the set up steps when switching it on for the first time.
My problem is that iPhoto and iMovie are not installed, and when i go to the app store the icons have an accept button, it then prompts me for my apple ID, obviously these a registered to the original owner, and says i need that ID in order to download them, or i'll have to purchase them.
I'm happy to purchase them, but it doesn't give me that option, every time i search for them in the app store they always come up with the accept option and no purchase option.
Any idea how i can get round this would be great fully appreciated.

Something doesn't make sense here, though I'm not saying the previous owner is lying....
Time to send your serial # to iTS and let them see what's happening here.

Make sure that you have quit the app when you finish using it. To do so press the Home button once to return to the Home screen. Then press the Home button twice to reveal the open apps under the Dock. Tap and hold the Music app until it begins to jiggle and a appears in the upper left corner of the icon. Tap the to quit the app. Tap the screen or press the Home button to return the Dock to it original position.

My iphone 4s has the connect to itunes screen. I have tried to reset, recover, etc but I keep getting and error-51 message. Any ideas how I can get my phone working again? I am not worried about saving any info just having a phone to use!

I was in the middle of the iOS 8 update and tried to turn my phone off (yes, I realize this was dumb) But what happened was it tried to reset. Now, my iphone 4s has the connect to itunes screen. I have tried to reset, recover, etc but I keep getting and error -51 message. Any ideas how I can get my phone working again? I am not worried about saving any info just having a phone to use!

Try a Hard Reset.....
Press and hold the Wake / Sleep button AND the Home button at the same time, keep them both pressed until the Apple Logo appears on the screen, it can take 10 or more seconds. Ignore the swipe to turn off message.

Do you have a backup of your iPhone? If so, do a restore and whatever Notes were backed up should reappear.
You will lose any changes made since that backup though.

Messages icon indicates that there is an unopened message but when i go into it the message is blank and no option to delete it. Any ideas how i can get rid of this and stop it from opening up in the blank message each time i open my messages?

The message icon on my iphone indicates that there is an unopened text message, but when i go into it, it just opens up a blank message, and there is no option to delete it. Any suggestions how i can get rid of this message, and prevent my phone from always opening up in the blank message whenever i go into my messages, rather than just opening as my inbox?
Many thanks

Hard restart.. While the phone is powered in, hold the power and home button. Hold them down and keep them held down. the phone will eventually shut itself off and reopen. keep held down till you see the appl elogo, then release. This will not delete anything off your phone, it will just force all apps to stop their current process. If you just turn the phone on and off, it will just pick up where it left off. Good luck
