The new iPhone update deleted all of my apps, they no longer even show up on my iTunes. How do I get them back without having to pay again?

Updated my iPhone, apps deleted including ones I have paid for. I don't want to have to pay again, how do I get them back? Or can I?

    If you bought them on your iPad then you will need to connect your iPad to your computer's iTunes and do File > Devices > Transfer Purchases to copy them over to the Tones part of your computer's iTunes library and you can then sync them to your iPhone - ringtones are a one-time only download, so you won't be able to redownload them directly on your phone.

  • I accidentally deleted an app. that I paid for from Amazon in 2012. How do I get it back without having to pay for it again?

    You purchased it directly from Amazon, not the App Store? It was a downloadable application, or one that came on physical install DVDs?

  • Lost audiobooks that have been purchased are gone and iTunes is saying that I have to repurchase them. I have all of the receipts, how can I get them back without having to pay another hundred dollars?

    ITunes is saying that the only way to get back all seven of my audiobooks are to repurchase them, however that is going to be about a hundred dollars to repurchase them all and I don't have that kind of money right now. Why are they making me do this and why the **** did they delete them in the first place, because I know I didn't delete them. I am on a MacBook Pro OS X version 10.9.5, processor 2.26 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, memory 2GB 1067 MHz DDR3.

    HI ..
    You're sure you signed into iTunes using the same Apple ID used for the purchases?
    You can re dowload past purchases for free >  Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • All of my purchased ringtones and songs dissapeared out of the blue. How do I get them back without having to buy them all over again?

    Out of the blue, all of my purchased ringtones and music aren't displayed anymore on my iPhone.
    I went to iTunes to see if they were stored there, but the downloads folder also appears to be empty. If I try to select a ringtone I've downloaded before, a popup appears saying that I've already purchased that item and asking if I want to cancel or buy. If I click on buy, then I pay for the item again even if I already have it! The only place I can still see my purchased items is in the iTunes application on my computer, but even though I've already selected sync, the ringtones and songs still won't appear on my iPhone.
    What happeneded and how can I get them back without having to pay for them all over again?
    Thank you!

    I'm having the same problem on an iphone 4s running iOS8; when i updated to iOS8, all my ringtones went missing, and when i got a £50 gift card for christmas (2014), I purchased some songs from the iTunes store on my iPhone. i downloaded songs from paramore, panic! at the disco, coldplay, and imagine dragons, over wi-fi, and they went into my iphone music library; but when i re-opened the music app a few days later, in a place where i had no wi-fi, except for my 3G phone signal, some cloud icons appeared next to my newly purchased songs, telling me to re-download them from the cloud, when i haven't even deleted them. this has happened twice now, and i had to use up some of my 5GB data allowance to redownload them from the cloud. This is annoying and i need to fix this issue ASAP.

  • Recently got a new computer and downloaded iTunes.  All of my music has downloaded from the cloud witht the exception of one song.  I have tried transferring from my phone, but it won't work.  How do I get it back without having to download again?

    If you have failed to make sure that any apps purchased on the iphone were transferred to your computer before updating, then you will have to redownload.
    Open itunes store, click Purchased, under Quick Links.

    On your iPod Touch, open the iTunes app. There should be tab named "purchased", which shows all your purchase history. Choose the "Not on this iPod" tab and you'll get a list of purchased products that are not on your device. Hope this helped.

    Hi Jen.  My daughter just compleated her nursing program and is now working as a full time nurse.  Focus and study hard and soon you will be there too.  Now to the problem at hand.  I have the same problem.  I gave up on it and satisfied myself with my iPod without the upgrade.  Reason being I've read so many posts of people having problems after the upgrade.  But I'm sure other factors are involved.  Nevertheless here is the fix most say works to solve the problem:  What ever virus protection you have installed on your computer, disable it.  Then try to install the update. After that enable the protection. I had Kaspersky, and it does it's job well. The thinking is, the virus protection is blocking the upgrade.  Hope this works.   Charlie

  • Songs bought on iPhone deleted during sync. How do I get them back without having to purchase them again?

    I recently got around to syncing my iPhone 4S with my laptop - hadn't done it for a while. For some reason it seems that the sync wiped the songs I had been purchasing over a few months via the iPhone on iTunes music store - and now they can't be found anywhere! Neither on the phone nor the laptop.
    have any of you experienced this and how did you get your tunes back???
    All the best

    Hi Ian
    Thanks for the tip. Tried that - but seems not to work on the Danish iTunes store. Something to do with rights, I think. But will try again. Any other ideas?

  • IPhone/iTunes music lost - how to get it back without having to pay again?

    I have an iPhone 3Gs I am very frustrated and upset at the moment. I have spent a lot of money over the past year on downloading music for my iPhone, some of it straight to the phone and sometimes straight into iTunes.
    Now I just upgraded to the 4.0 software and it has wiped all of my music from my iPhone except what I purchased on my iPhone that day. I have some of my music backed up on a harddrive, but there seems to be loads of albums missing still (I have all the receipts emailed to me).
    Is there not a button that tells you which things you have purchased in iTunes so can just redownload them for free? It wants me to pay again when I have tried!
    This is not fair! I don't understand why it wipes my iPhone every time I update the software. Please someone help me find my music and get it back on my iPhone?
    Many thanks,
    Shelly

    though slightly off topic, the following post by Zevoneer in this thread http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=8794716 says it all:
    Did you back up your purchases before you you reinstalled your system? If you erased your drive then the purchases will have been erased along with everything else. If you didn't make a back-up of your purchases to restore from (as you are advised to do) then I'm sorry to say that the policy on lost purchases is that you have to pay to download them again:
    "Once a Product is purchased and you receive the Product, it is your responsibility not to lose, destroy, or damage the Product, and Apple shall be without liability to you in the event of any loss, destruction, or damage." iTunes Store: Purchased content can be downloaded only once
    You could try contacting the iTunes Music Store Customer Service and you might be able to persuade them to sanction a second free download. There have been occasional reports in the iTunes forum of this happening, however just be aware that they are not under any obligation to do so. If you click on this link you'll be able to email your query: iTMS Customer Service
    If you have an iPod that still has the purchases on it the transfer of purchased content from the iPod to authorised computers was introduced with iTunes 7. You'll find details in this article: Copying iTunes Store purchases from your iPod or iPhone to a computer

  • HT1766 My iPhone had a defect and was replaced but now I don't have any of my music. My apps downloaded for free but not my music. It was never backed up on computer because I don't have one. How do I get my music without having to pay again?

    Read above

    If the music was purchased with iTunes, you can re-download them for free see below:
    iTunes Store app > More... > Purchased > Music > Not on This iPhone > download from here. 

  • I paid for a ringtone and had to restore my phone and now I don't have the ringtone. How can I get that back without having to pay for it again?

    I had to restore my phone and before I did it I bought a ringtone and now I do not have that ringtone. How do I get that back without having to repay for it?

    Call iTunes support and see if they will re-grant it back to you. Shouldn't be a problem, they have done it for quite a few people I know.

    Did you create these notes in the iPad notes App ... I assume?
    This support article will explain how you can restore from a backup - which is what you have to do in order to have any chance of recovering your note.
    How to backup and restore from a backup
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    But you have to remember, that you will lose any of the notes that you have taken since the date of the last backup. If you synced your iPad last week, then you will lose a whole week of current notes - or whatever notes you have created since your last backup. When you restore from a backup - you restore everything in that backup onto the iPad - that was on the iPad on the time and date of the backup.
    If you backup every day, then all of your notes should be recoverable from the backup - except for any notes that you took since you last backed up. There is no foolproof way to recover everything once you start taking more notes or creating new documents or whatever that you do in an app unless you are syncing those notes with iCloud and backing up all of the time or unless the app is set to sync with iCloud as you work on the files - like in Pages, Numbers or Keynote - Apple's iWorks apps.
    If you decide to restore from an iTunes backup you should turn off at sync before you try restoring because iTunes will want to backup your iPad right away when you plug it in and you will lose your old or last backup.
