Transferring apps from 3g phone to 4 phone

I just updated from an iPhone 3G to the iPhone4 and want to transfer my apps to the new phone, I was told at Best Buy when I bought it that this wasnt possible...is that true and if I can transfer how do I do it?

First of all thanks so much for the quick and helpful reply, I spent a looong time trying to find it on apples support site and was unable to find it. Secondly I have to say your screen name gave me a HUGE laugh as that is our team name when we are geocaching....just thought it was crazy ironic that out of all the tons of people on here that you responded and shared the name. HA! Thanks again

    In iTunes under the Apps tab for the iPhone device just uncheck any app you don't want synced to the phone. When you next sync the app will be removed from the phone but remain in the iTunes library.

    All of your apps should be on your computer.  If they are not, then put them there.
    You can then sync them to any of your idevices you like
    You can also redownlaod them:

    My iPad air is missing some apps from my phone. It keeps saying, " there is not enough storage available to download...." I purchased additional storage twice, my device now shows 18GB free of a total 25GB, and still I cannot download apps I've had for yrs

    iCloud space is for backup only.
    You need more local storage; free up space on iPad:

    How I can transfer some of my apps from I phone to my MacBook Pro?

    Start iTunes 11.1 or later on your MacBook Pro and connect your iPhone. Select your iPhone in iTunes and under General select Transfer purchases.
    That will create backups of your apps on your MacBook Pro. The apps will not run on your MacBook Pro though just in case you were wanting to do that. The Mac OS X on the MacBook Pro and the iOS on your iPhone are different operating systems.

    You can't delete it.  Look on all your screens and inside all your folders.  If you still can't find it go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.  This will restore the home screen to its original configuration but may move other apps around to do so.  (You may want to take some screenshots of your screens first so you can recreate your app layout.)

      HOW DO I GET IT NOT TO?

    As Dah•veed said, you can delete an app on one divice, and still have it stay on another. The syncing only applies for downloaing apps when you have "Sync Purchases" enabled for the App Store. This goes for the iTunes, iBooks, and Podcasts apps as well.

  • I need to delete an app from my phones history. I want no trace of this app on my phones or iPad or history. How do I do this?

    i need to delete an app from my phone History. I want no trace of this App on my phone or iPad or my history! How do I do this? 

    Hey sam@111,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you wish to delete an application from your iOS devices. To do so, see the following:
    How to delete content you've downloaded from the iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5772
    Apps
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    Tap and hold the app you want to delete.
    The apps will begin to jiggle.
    Tap the X on the app.
    Afterwards, you can choose to hide the purchase from your purchase history:

    Thanks,

  • How do I stop itunes from transferring apps from my ipad or iphone to my pc ?

    How do I stop iTunes from transferring apps from my iPad or iPhone to my PC ? I have App sync turn off and I have add files to library turned off. Yet every time
    I sync iTunes transfers all my apps to my PC. I have 20-30 gig of apps on each. A lot of them are 1gig each and it takes for ever to sync , plus I don't want 100 gig of apps just sitting on my hard drive for no reason. Any app I ever want is always available in the cloud so what's the point of having them on my PC in the 1st place?

    I'm pretty sure that the space is used up on your computer's hardrive.
    Anyway my solution to this nuisance of apps/itunes transfer was to allow itunes to download the apps from my phone...
    ...First of all I had tried to uncheck a few boxes in itunes a) automatically sync when device is connected (in the summary section) b) prevent devices from syncing (edit>preferences>devices) and c) Automatically sync new apps (apps section of device)
    HOWEVER, when I would click sync in any section, apps tried to transfer to itunes from my iphone.
    So after all my apps went on my computer (approx. 9 GB), I checked the boxes back, disconnected my device and deleted all the apps from itunes and my computer simultaneously (by clicking del/move to recycle bin).
    Now when I connect my iphone it does it's backup/sync thing automatically ...but no apps try to transfer
    Note: apps from your library cannot be set to sync with your device
    I can now also click sync in any section and no apps transfer.
    (This problem started when I downloaded an app from itunes rather than my device and I later transfered the app to my device. My apps section in itunes is completely empty now and no apps appear in windows explorer either)
    the only thing I am unsure of now is; what's going to happen if I purchase an app from itunes on my pc again ...I'm guessing I'll have to repeat the process (might want to avoid that)
