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
To restore to factory settings/new iPod see:

Why do I need to keep rebooting my iPad 2? I reboot it at least 5 times a day. I've deleted most of my Apps but the problem continues.

Latest sync deleted most of my apps including paid for games
my usual sync with itunes just decided to remove most of my apps a few of which were payed for..
i didnt even mean to sync i just plugged it in to charge..
what the ... ????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 -
ITunes 9.0.1 has just deleted most of my apps!
Downloaded the new iTunes 9.0.1 (prompted by software updater) and synced it with my iPhone 3G (OS 3.1).
Now most of my paid + free apps have disappeared off my phone, even after I have authorized my computer with iTunes Store. *** is Apple doing?You may see that erroneous update message below the Google search box on www.google.com/firefox which is the old Firefox default home page.

How do i fix this without deleting everything from my phone?
Leigh...
but cannot do this because I cannot access Mac App Store
If you can't access the App Store from the Apple menu, Dock, or Applications folder installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo will reinstall the App Store for you.
It's ok to do this even you are already running v10.6.8.
Plants vs. Zombies, and that is all for additional software on here
FYI: Some third party software can cause issues with the App Store > Mac App Store: Sign in sheet does not appear, or does not accept typed text

My iPod normally works fine, but recently after I unplugged it from my computer and went to listen to it, most of the songs were gone. How do I get my songs back?
Windows XP ProUnless you have them in iTunes or a back-up elsewhere, you will not be able to recover them on the pod.

Hey,
I just purchased the new iPhone 6 16GB.upgrade jump T-mobile not paid in full $700.Nevertheless, why do I keeping getting a message about storage full? And it says...Go to setting and manage storage with iCloud. I have deleted most of the app, photo, and just about everything else, and still keep getting this message. It's almost as if I will be paying additional 3.99-19.99 a month to manage the icloud for apps that I already had. Perhaps this is the gimmicks to order the 64GB iPhone 6. In fact, the 64GB is offered as an upgrade to new or additional line customers. Come On give us a break for the loyal customers Geezh!!
Plus can't even upgrade software update to iOS8.1.1 because there is not enough storage. What sense does that make to even upgrade to the new iPhone 6???? Hurry up and fix this problem!Purchasing iCloud storage will not help your issue. Also, if you want to upgrade, do it via iTunes rather than OTA - it doesn't require as much available storage to do it that way.
To check to see what is taking up so much of your storage, go to Settings>General>Usage>Manage Storage, and you will see a list of the items on your device and the amount of storage they are taking up.
T-mobile's offer of the 64GB iPhone 6 to new or additional line customers has nothing to do with Apple. You need to take that up with T-mobile.

I had to reload my PC software and when I reinstalled iTunes and started to sync it deleted most of my apps including those I've paid for. How do I get my stuff back?

i went to put music on my itunes from my ipod and it deleted most of my music off of it and i dont know how to get it back. PLEASE HELP ME. :-|
- Unsync/delete all music and resync
To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If necessary, you can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

If i reset or restore my iPod touch will all my apps be deleted? If so what about the bought ones ?
- A reset does not delete any media (apps, music etc) from the iPod.
- A restore will delete apps, music and other media from the iPod. If the media is in the iTunes library then a restore from backp will restore the media and after a restore to factory defaults/new iPod you can sync the media back to the iPod.
- If not in the iTunes libray, you can redownload most iTunes pruchases by:

My iphone 3g is getting really slow. I done full restore ,deleted most apps . Not many photos in my album. i have no videos on my iphone. When taking photo with my iphone it takes ages for camera to open up. Very slow to take photo. Any suggestions? Please help !!!!
Thank you very much for your reply gdgmacguy :) I did all you suggested apart from restore as new device . Didn't know I could do that . After restore I did restore from back up only, as I didn't want to end up without contacts details on my phone. If I restore as new device how do I get my all contacts? Still will have to use back up? Sorry if it sounds like I don't know what i am doing, i just have no one to ask who would know. Thank you

I just updated my iTunes to the new software. When I plugged it into my computer and it said I need to reset my iPod. I did this and everything on my iPod deleted. Now, it won't let me sync my music or apps back onto my iPod. What do I do?
It doesn't say anything. It runs through the sync process like normal and tells me all of the songs that it's synking. But then when it says I can disconnect it, nothing actually synked.

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,
GaryYou 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.

Went to update apps on ipod touch IOS 4.2.1. I did a factory reset and now I can't get most of my apps back & can't download version 5.0 which I need to get back some of my apps. I paid for some of these. I've tried my backup and it didn't put them back on.
If your iPod Touch is too old for iOS 5 or later... there is not much you can do.
When/if you get a later model iDevice you will be able to Download Past Purchases using the Original ID that made those Purchases. (providing they are still supported by the Developer)
