My iPhone 4 lost all apps after iOS 6 update, and can't reinstall them!

After updating to iOS 6, I can't install apps I've bought before.. I can only open them through App Store.. Stupid!!
And safari can't ever find any web pages when on wifi...
Seems like iOS 6 is having some bugs after reading this forum and by my own experience..

I have a similar problem.  None of my App Icons are visible.  I rebooted Iphone, PC and wireless router, I did a sync with iTunes (With "Sync Apps" checked, but it doesn't seem to go through that step), both through wi-fi and with USB cable........no success with any of these.
When I go into my settings, I can see that the phone knows about these apps. I get see the settings for them and the amount of storage they're using.
I'm thinking I'll use the Restore function in iTunes.....but I'm afraid that might make things worse!!

    I lost all apps after reseting and updating to IOS 7.1.1 How do I get them back?
    I did a reset of my phone yesterday and now when I go to purchaed to download my paurchsed tabs there is nothing there.
    I see them in my ipad but they are not in my itunes app section either.
    I searched for one in the app store and it usually said "open" or had the cloud icon with the little arrow to downlaod again (free). But none of that shows up at all this time. All the apps that I'm missing show up in the pp store for me to buy again like I never purchased them at all!
    What's going on?
    I'm missing a ton of apps!
    Pleae help me!
    Gaby

    I just wanted to add this information to my post:
    I have purchaed, free and paid, 618 apps.
    In my phone apps to add to my phone when I plug it in my computer only 266 apps show up.
    In my itunes "puerchased list" only 266 show up.
    Thank God I have not updated my ipad. There I went to my "purchased" under the ALL list in the app store and there I do see my 618 apps!
    Where did my other 352 apps go? Which many were paid.
    I want my apps back.
    Thanks,

  • I updated my iPhone 5c to iOS8 and lost all my calendar events.  How can I get them back?

    I updated my IPhone 5C to iOS8 and lost all my calendar events.  How can I get them back?  I had it saved to the cloud but then changed it because I did not want to save everything to the cloud.  I changed it back and still don't have any events.

    Are they still listed on your device when you go to Settings>iCloud>Storage>Numbers?  If so, they should still be in iCloud but you may need to contact support to find out why the Numbers app isn't able to access them: http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/.

  • I have music loaded from cd's. They were intact after each sync. After a iTune upgrade, I lost all the music at sync. Can I restore them from old backup in iCloud ?

    I have music loaded from cd's. They were intact after each sync. After a iTune upgrade, I lost all the music at sync. Can I restore them from old backup in iCloud ?

    Unless you'd signed up to iTunes Match then they won't be in the Cloud, only music purchased from iTunes (if you are in a country where music can be re-downloaded) will be there. Have you not still got it on your computer and/or on a backup which you can use to sync it back to the iPad ?

  • Help! i just lost all my voicemail messages! how can i retrieve them?!

    Help! i just lost all my voicemail messages! how can i retrieve them???

    I also experienced loss of important archived voicemails on my Iphone on two occasions within the last 12 mos:
    1. after upgrading my Iphone 4S to an Iphone 5 using Itunes backup and then erasing my Iphone 4s. I lost all my voicemails older than 90 days (ATT is my carrier). I was able to recover the old voicemails by restoring my Iphone 4s from my Itunes backup and holding onto that device for reference.
    2. again, six mos later after restoring a new Iphone 5 using a recent ITunes backup after water damage to my first Iphone 5. Nobody in my local Apple store or on Apple phone support, including a "senior techniciaan" had any useful knowledge to assist me with this frustrating issue. Ultimately, I spent many hours researching this myself. Apparently, there is a bug in the Iphone 5 OS when restoring from ITunes. I don't know if this problem also occurs after restoring from an ICloud backup. However, I found that Iphone voicemails are available for a limited period 30-90 days through your phone carrier ie. ATT, Verizon, etc but more importantly, ALL voicemails are archived on an ITUNES backup regardless of age assuming you didn't delete them off your IPhone before last backing up your device. So, if you lost or damaged your IPhone but have an ITunes backup, all you need is an ITunes extractor, unfortunately not available through APPLE. Apple reps are not authorized to discuss non-apple issued software even if they're aware. There are several ITunes extractors available for music, photos, SMS files etc but most don't also have the capability of opening the embedded voicemails. Happily, using this software, I successfully extracted from my ITunes backup file ALL my voicemails old and current, using www.backuptrans.com/itunes-backup-extractor.html (Mac and Windows versions available). A life-saver!

    You can download everything you purchased from the iTunes Store without having to pay again:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Here is the procedure for your reference, using iTunes 10.7. The procedure and screenshots for newer versions are contained in the above link.
    This assumes what you purchased is still available in the Store.
    Open iTunes and click on iTunes Store on the left
    On the right you will see this
    Sign in with your Apple ID, then click on "Purchased" (with the orange blob)
    On the summary page that appears select the tab "Not on This Computer" on the right.
    On the list that appears, select what you want and then click the "Download" button.

    The last update for 10.4 took it to 10.4.11. To upgrade to 10.5 or 10.6 you have to buy the install disk for that OS. You can upgrade from 10.4 to 10.6 with no problems as long as you have at least 1gb of RAM. Any program that runs under 10.4 will run under 10.6.

  • I lost all music after an update on itouch, how do i restore

    lost all music after update , how do you restore it?

    You can go to iTunes, and download any music tracks for free if you have already downloading them. Same goes for apps, go to the App Store on your iPod, Updates, and then Purchased. From there, download anything for free (that you purchased before). All app progress will be saved too.
    OR, if you have a reliable backup, you can restore from that.

  • Lost all apps after upgrade are they stored in the itunes store

    You can redownload these Apps via iCloud using the instructions in this Apple support document.

  • Lost all contacts after iOS 4.3 update [iPhone 4]

    The description above pretty much tells it all. All contacts missing from iPhone 4 after update to iOS 4.3.
    All music, calendar, photos, voicemails are still there. And the strange thing (to me) is that the numbers are still there under "recent" and "favorites", just not the contact names to associate them with.
    Backup is useless, as it is from after the update [why is there only one backup? That is useless, and you can't seem to force backups with date stamps].
    Thanks in advance for any assistance.

    I had the same experience as RandyCPU, updated to 4.3 yesterday, all contacts disappeared but all other information still there, photos, texts, recent calls but no names etc. I too found that my phone was not backing up contacts and I only had the info from my changeover to the iphone4 in December. I asked if I could set it to back-up on syncing and was told it did it automatically but this is obviously not the case, I was then told that I would have to do it manually. Apple could only suggest restoring the December back-up but I have now lost everything loaded on the phone since then, they also advised that I was the only example of this problem. Very unhappy and still no idea why it happened.

  • I lost all apps after updating to iOS7.1 How do I get them back?

    After updating my iphone4s with iOS7.1 I lost all my apps. How do I get them back?

    All your apps should be in your itunes media library, sync your phone to itunes.
    Or directly from your phone - app store - update - purchase - all or not on this phone - hit the cloud next to the app you want to download.

  • Bounce Apps after iOS Update

    I'm using iPhone 5s with 32G and there is 7G free space.  After update iOS 7.1.2 at early July, the phone occasionally turned to blue screen during viewing photos or switching between apps or scrolling the screen, and back to the home screen in a while.  The situation has got worse these 2 days.  Apps bounced when the phone activated in 15 mins or less.  Blue screen, Apple logo, and then go to black screen most time.  Sometimes remind me to reset touch ID after the phone has hung.  Reboot the phone cannot help the case.
    I used several hours for back up to PC/iCloud and restored the phone.  Blue screen appeared again in less than 15 mins after the restoration completed.  Some apps could not restore in the phone as they were not back up (no idea why not all apps back up to PC via iTunes??).  iTunes showed no back up was made in iCloud.  But iPhone showed there's one in "Storage and Backup" and the data is restored actually.  It's confusing.
    Could anyone help?  Or waiting for next update to fix the bug??

    Thanks for the reply.
    Bug type 110 and 115 were found in "Diagnostics & Usage".  I think many diagnostics reports disappeared when the apps/screen bounced to blue and the phone restart.
    I restored the phone from iTunes Backup, not as Set Up as New Phone.  What's the difference between set up as new and from iTunes backup?  If "Set Up as New Phone" is used, can I restore the backup, or all data will be lost?

  • Deleted my messages during iOS update - how can I recover them without paying for apps/ software (already sync'd after losing them though)?

    I updated my iOS, and when I was typing out a message to someone via imessage (as it forced it on) and I deleted the last one I sent (definitely not delete all, I didn't 'fat finger' it either) but for some reason it deleted the whole entire message trail, which had a couple of years of messages in it, some of which I wanted to keep - annoyed feeling commenced!!
    I've since figured out how to totally turn off imessage as I hate how it looks/ feels, and have reverted to SMS messages, but have lost all of my old messages to that one person.
    I've used a 3rd party bit of software and it found all the messages for me, but I have to pay for them to restore them and I'm not paying what they're trying to charge.
    Given that iTunes has already sync'd since this nightmare, is there another free way to recover them and get them back on my phone though?
    Thanks in advance for any help!!

    I know of no way to remove encryption on iTunes backups if you've forgotton the password.  If you've used the 4 digit PIN code to lock your iPhone in the past that can sometimes default as your "password" for this encryption in iTunes.  Try that PIN or any PIN you've used in the past.  If you don't use a lock maybe you played around with that feature once when you first got your phone....try "1,2,3,4" or anything you could have possibly tried.
    As far as accessing older unencrypted backups you can try this software.  I do not have any experience using it but it seems like it's what you need and is probably the easiest route for both voicemail and texts:
    http://deciphertools.com/products.html
    If you want to try to find voicemails using Terminal, I found this link as well:
    http://mikereys.wordpress.com/2011/10/18/iphone-backup-restoring-visual-voice-ma il/
    I know with AT&T, voicemails are only stored on their servers for 30 days so any voicemail older than that you would not have been able to access again.
    Best of luck.

  • Iphone 4s not working after ios update 6.1.3

    I have an iphone 4s boxed, brandnew and unopened for a year not until March 2013, for a couple of days i have used it, worked excellent but after i have unlocked it through at&t and updated it to IOS 6.1.3 it went to re-activation mode again. Tried several times to activate it but no succeess. I went to an apple store to discuss the problem of the update and consequently the result it brought to my iphone4s but denied a replacement because it was passed the warranty period. I was offered a replacement (for a fee) of $200 but i refused since i believe i havent enjoyed the iphone for years, has not even dropped, water-damaged nor scratched. The manager on duty (Mary, Fairview Mall, Ontario) insisted that my iphone 4s has a growing software problem already and i just dont know of... I reiterated to her that the unit was working as brandnew just like many of my apple products i have.  I havent called the apple support telephone support though. What should i do now? Please help guys. I cannot take it paying another $200 for an iphone that was practically brandnew and went useless after the update. I have a record of the at&t authorized unlocking request.  Should i escalate the appeal to where? Please help.. Thanks a lot guys.

    The fact that you chose to leave the device in the box for a year (a rather unintelligent decision) has no bearing on the warranty.  Warranty starts from the date of the original purchase.
    You can try basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide which is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).
