Transfer app from coomputer to iphone 4?

I was forced to download an App in iTunes on my computer because the size was 20MB. How do I transfer that App from iTunes to my phone?

Select Sync Apps under the Apps tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes followed by a sync.
If Sync Apps is not currently selected under the Apps tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes which probably means all 3rd party apps currently installed on your iPhone are not in your iTunes library, before doing so at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone. After confirming all 3rd party apps currently installed on your iPhone are not in your iTunes library where they should be, select Sync Apps under the Apps tab and make sure all apps below are selected including the new app you downloaded with iTunes followed by a sync.
Now after downloading an app direct with your iPhone, the app will be copied to your iTunes library automatically the first time you sync your iPhone with iTunes after doing so. This also allows for removing an app from your iPhone without deleting the app by deselecting the app under the Apps tab followed by a sync. To re-install the app on your iPhone again later, reselect the app under the Apps tab followed by a sync. To install an app on your iPhone after being downloaded with iTunes, make sure the app is selected under the Apps tab followed by a sync. If you restore your iPhone with iTunes if wanted or needed, you can reinstall all apps on your iPhone via the iTunes sync process without having to re-download each app one by one with your iPhone.

hw to transfer app from computer to iphone?? please help me!

Connect the iPhone to your computer and select it on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which is Apps - if you select that tab then you should be able to select which of your apps to sync to the phone (assuming that the apps are compatible with the phone e.g. you have the relevant IOS version on it). If you have bought/downloaded apps on your phone that aren't on your computer's iTunes then you may want to copy them to your computer's iTunes first via File > Transfer Purchases

There is no need to "buy" appliclations again. You can backup your old phone to iCloud and restore the backup to the new phone. You can also re-download them for free from the App Store.

I wanted to transfer apps from ipad to iphone, eg 1password. Unfortunately, following the syncing process, the apps have been transferred but can't get into them and if I can, they don't have the contents in them, they're just the empty app!

Can you advise how I can sync apps from ipad to iphone without losing data.

Data does not sync between devices, so you can't do what you want to accomplish.
If you want to sync 1Password, then install it on both devices and use it's iCloud sync feature.

How do you transfer content (apps, pictures, etc) from an old iPhone 3 to a new iPhone 4s?

I understand that. I'm curious as to what will transfer and what won't transfer via backup. From the research I've done, texts and voice messages won't transfer but voice messages are persistent with the provider, so I won't really lose them. What else won't transfer? Pictures? Safari cache (i.e. saved passwords for web sites)? Will those transfer?

Can't transfer apps from Mac to iPhone using iTunes

I need to transfer an app from my Mac to my iPhone because the vendor bodged an update. I've deleted the broken app from the iPhone and now want to sync apps with my Mac as it has a working copy of the app. However when I go to the syncing screen there are no apps visible:
But my Apps are all there on the Mac:
Don't know when the problem started as I normally keep the apps up to date on each device over wifi.
Any ideas chaps?
David

Apps you purchase from the Mac App Store can only run on the Mac OS X.
Apps purchased from the iTunes store run on iOS based devices such as your iPod.
In other words, you can't run the game for your Mac then copy it to your iPod. Two differenct operating systems.

Transfer app from itunes to iphone

Recently installed Windows 7 as a clean install replacing Vista. Then reinstalled itunes. Then transferred my apps from my iphone to itunes.
Then purchased a large app which i downloaded to itunes. The problem is I can't transfer it to my phone.
I've re authorised the computer but that doesn't help.
When I go to the sync apps tab I get a message asking me if I'm sure I want to proceed as all of the existing apps and their data will be deleted.
What do I do?

This article details how to backup your itunes media:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1382
Once backed up, iTunes can use your backup to automatically restore your iTunes library.
This article will tell you how to recreate your library:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1451
Make sure you have at least one entry in whatever supported applications you use for calendars & contacts. You do not want to sync to an empty address book, as this will delete the contacts from your phone. To prevent this & generate a merge or replace prompt, make sure you have at least one entry in each calendar & contact application.
Also, before you do sync, disable auto sync when an ipod/iphone is connected under preferences(in the edit menu).
Connect your phone, Do Not Sync, at this point.
Store>Authorize this Computer.
File>Transfer Purchases.
Right click the phone in the device pane & select reset warnings.
Right click again & select backup.
Right click again & select restore from backup. Select the backup you just made. When prompted to create another backup, decline.
This MUST be followed by a sync to restore your itunes content, which you'll select from the various tabs as before.
You'll get a popup regarding your contacts & calendars asking to merge or replace, select merge.
Since you'll be restoring your itunes library from a backup, your phone should look exactly like it did before you started.

Cannot transfer app from PC to iphone

Hi, Last evening I purchased my first app from the itunes store. I made the purchase using my PC.
Trouble is I cannot transfer the app from the PC to my iPhone.
In itunes, in the left side sidebar my iPhone is present.
In itunes when I click "All", all the apps appear that I have downloaded over the last 2 years, including
the app i purchased last night. When I click the next button labeled "iPhone/iPod touch" all the apps on my iPhone
appear minus the purchased app. When I go back to the "All" page and then drag the purchased app to my iPhone
iTunes prevents this action from happening. The app is on my PC's "C" drive with the size listed as 166 MB
so the app download was complete. On one of the many online help forums that addressed this same problem it was suggested I go back to the itunes app store and download the app again. Using the PC I went back to the store and the download/purchase button was grayed out and within the button it said "downloaded" so i am prevented from downloading the app again. Using my iphone to connect to the itunes app store I could not locate the more expensive HD version of the app I had purchased. Only the cheaper version of the app was found. In iTunes I have synced the iphone. This is a strange problem. Does anyone have any suggestions? Tx very much!

Found the solution to problem. The HD version of the app is only good for the iPad, not iPhone. Would have been nice if apple had clearly stated this up front in the app store

Transfer apps from Touch to iPhone

I am considering buying an iPhone when the new version is released this summer. I already own an iPod Touch filled with many downloaded apps, so my question is this: will I be able to transfer/copy these apps from the Touch to my new device, or will it be necessary to download each one again for the iPhone? Thanks in advance!

You can sync as many devices as you want to the same itunes account, there is no limit. So, yes you can put all of your existing content on any new iphone you purchase. You can have the same content on each device or different content, the choice is yours. Itunes will keep it all straight by device.

Can not transfer apps from Itunes to Iphone

HI everyone, I noticed this just the other day and I can seem to figure it out.
My Apps page in Itunes is greyed out and I cant navigate and add new apps from Itunes.
Sync Apps is unchecked and if I check it I get a warning saying it will erase all apps on the phone and replace it with the ones on Itunes. I don't want to do that as I will loose all the modified data within the apps. (Game progress etc.) And I don't know if that will fix the problem, plus all the apps on the phone are the same as the ones on the computer so I would not gain anything from that anyway.
I used to be able to change the order and remove apps from this page and now its greyed out. Any Ideas?
Restrictions on the phone are set to OFF.
...anyone know how to add a screen shot to this forum so you can see what I'm talking about?
thanks!

Either you changed to a different computer to sync, or you changed something major on the computer so iTunes no longer thinks it is the same computer. The iPhone can sync iTunes content with only one computer at a time; if you change computers the symptom that you see is exactly the result.

Transfer apps from Ipod to Iphone help please!

i recently bought an Iphone and want to move my apps from my ipod to it.
I trouble is, when I do I loose all my saved game data.
I was only 8 levels away from finishing angry birds and now I have to start all over again?!!
any way I can move it over without loosing my saved info?
thanks.
~Lukas.

3rd party app settings and data created and stored by a 3rd party app is not stored with the app. 3rd party app settings and data created and stored by a 3rd party app is included with your iPod Touch backup and with your iPhone's backup which is updated by iTunes as the first step during the iTunes sync process.
You can try restoring your iPhone with iTunes from the backup for your iPod Touch. This would be the only way if this is possible. It should be but not something I have done.
