Restoring the actual iTunes app to my iPhone

I can't remember how, but somehow I removed the actual Apple iTunes app from my iPhone some time ago for some unknown reason.
Someone suggested that my phone must be jailbroken to do this - I assure you that my phone is not jailbroken and it never has been, and I am running 3.0.1 on it.
I have no idea how I did it, and I have no idea how to get it back. I searched for iTunes in iPhone's search, and it's definitely not there. Of course, the Apple apps don't show up in the Applications section in iTunes, so I can't select it to sync to my phone.
I couldn't find any other threads on this, but if there is one, please point me to it - otherwise, PLEASE HELP!

Have you checked restrictions? Is it on another screen?
Otherwise a restore would be a good option.

  • How can I restore the previously bought apps after I have formatted my computer without backing up any of my files for iTunes?

    As titled.
    I bought many apps from iTunes at the end of last year, and then my computer had got problem that I had to format and reinstall everything.
    I just want to know how can I restore the previously bought apps once if I forgot to backup any of my files on the computer??
    Would be really grateful if someone can show me how to. Thanks!!
    FYI: At that time I was using iPad 1 and the OS was still 3.1.x. Now I am using iPhone 4 and would like to restore the apps at least those that are compatible to my phone.

  • HT4623 When I try to launch the Itunes app on my Iphone, it starts and then quits right away.  What should I do?

    When I try to launch the Itunes app on my Iphone, it starts and then quits right away.  What should I do?

    I would reinstall iOS 7.
    Open iTunes (11.1 or later) on your computer and plug your iPhone into your computer.
    Sync your iPhone with iTunes.
    Click on your iPhone device and from the Summary Tab, Back up using iCloud and/or iTunes.
    On your iPhone, open Settings/iCloud and turn off Find My Phone.
    In iTunes, click on the Restore button on the Summary tab next to Check for Updates.
    iTunes will completely wipe your phone and reinstall iOS 7.
    Setup your iPhone as new and restore from your back up.
    Check to see if the iTunes app is functioning correctly and not closing on you.
    I did this last night when setting Limit Ad Tracking kept closing Settings and taking me back to the Home screen. After reinstalling iOS 7, the issue went away.

    Which password?
    If you mean the passcode to your iPhone, here's the solution:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
    If you mean the encryption password to your backup on your computer:
    Warning: Make sure it's a password you will remember or write it down for safekeeping. If you encrypt an iPhone backup in iTunes and forget your password, you can't restore from backup and your data will be unrecoverable.
    If you can't remember the password and want to start again, you must perform a full software restore and chooseset up as a new device when iTunes prompts you to select the backup from which to restore.

    You have to restore the iPod, no ifs, ands, or buts...
    After iOS is installed you will be asked if you what to set it up as a new iPod or if you want to restore from a backup.
    If you have a good backup you can restore that and you're good to go.
    If you don't have a good backup, then you end up with a "clean" iPod....

  • I have moved my iTunes library to a new Windows 7 PC and cannot transfer music from the new iTunes PC to my iPhone. The iPhone only accepts transfers from the original iTunes PC.

    I have moved my iTunes library to a new Windows 7 PC and cannot transfer music from the new iTunes PC to my iPhone 4S. The iPhone will only accept music transfers from the original iTunes PC. I have come to understand that an iPhone can have only one "daddy" iTunes PC, but have not been able to find out how to change the "daddy". I have done a backup of the iPhone, and a "Restore to Original Settings". Then I restored the content using the new iTunes PC. My Apps and contacts, etc. are back on the iPhone, but it still won't accept music from the new iTunes PC.

    What happens when you try to sync the iphone to the new computer?

  • Is there a way to restore the All Contacts app on my iPad 1.  it seems  the data and cannot turn a page or add more contacts

    Is there a way to restore the All Contacts app on my gen 1 ipad?  I seem to have lost the data and can't turn a page or add new contacts.  I did try to reload the contacts (and I guess everything else) from my itunes computer backup but nothing happens to the All Contacts app. everything else seems to work fine on the ipad so I'm not sure what happened to the data or why.  not sure i want to try and reset the whole ipad just for this one little app or feature...thanks in advance to any replies.

    Sorry, had to sep out.  I see the contacts "page" but I can't use the letters on the left margin or a finger touch to change location.  Nor does anything happen when I touch the plus sign to allow me to add a new contact.  So maybe he actual old contact data is still there I just can't get to it.  Rick

  • After upgrading to iOS 5 the actual phone app keeps crashing

    Updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 5 yesterday. Everything seems to work fine, it seems, except the actual phone app.
    When I click it to make a call it immediately crashes and goes back to the home screen.
    I was able to make a call by calling out of the address book but the screen was blank. At the top I got the green bar saying "Touch to return to call" and when I clicked on it I'd see the regular phone stuff you'd expect to see for a split second before the screen went back to black with the green bar at the top.
    I was unable to end the call without turning the phone off.
    I can receive calls and everything works fine until I answer the call. I'm able to talk with no problems but I get the same problem described above when actually looking at the phone.
    I have tried turning the phone off and also hard resets but nothing works.
    Anybody know what's wrong or how to fix?
    Thanks,
    d.

    Clearing all the apps out of the multitask tray followed by a hard reset appears to have solved the problem.

    Wow, just posting and it seems that there is a solution that is working for me...
    What I've did is I turned off iTunes Match on my iPhone, then turned in on again. Now in my iTunes library on my mac I can get the duplicates to be matched or uploaded to iCloud with a right-click, add to iCloud. iTunes Match starts to check the songs and everything is done correctly. Pretty nice!
