Updated BB App world.... and lost all apps?

I had to do a swap of phones last week.  Did this, and reinstalled several apps on the new phone. Finally was told had to do a BB App world update... Did this, and they are all gone now.  They are not under the Uninstalled, or Other devices tab.  HELP!?!?!?!
Thanks in advance!
Solved!

Hello!
I suggest that you clear the AppWorld application cache:
1. Open App World
2. Go to My World
3. Follow one (and only one!) of these steps:
3a. For keyboard-based BB's -- Hold down the ALT key and then press, in sequence R, then S, then T
3b. For Touch Screen Only BBs -- Hold the num-lock (!?123) button so it locks and then press, in sequence 3, then 4, then (
3c. For newer (e,g., OS6 and 7) BB's, see this KB:
KB24714 How to clear the BlackBerry App World cache
4. AppWorld should close.
5. If your BB locks after issuing the cache clear, perform a battery pull reboot
6. Return to AppWorld/MyWorld (it may be sluggish while it re-synchronizes).
If step (4) does not happen as listed, then the clear cache did not work.
Hopefully it'll work for you! Good luck and let us know!

    From backups you made to iCloud and/or iTunes, and items you synced from iTunes originally.

    If your back up was successful, then just resync.  The books are there.  If they are not, simply go back to the bookstore and redownload them for free.

  • Updated to Is o5 and lost all contacts

    Hi everyone,
    I have updated to os 5 today. Took all the precautions beforehand pressing sync and backing up etc. After the update I have lost all my contacts and apps and how they were arranged on the home screen. Stangely, I still have all my text messages. I'm not bothered about my apps or music they can be purchased again but is there any way of getting my contacts back? I have spent 3+ hours trying many of the options that other have used after a google search but they don't work. Please help me
    John

    Yea I guess that now. It would be nice to have known this prior to doing an update. Apple's self help guides do quote that the contact information is contained within a backup:
    Backed-up information includes purchased music, TV shows, apps, and books*; photos and video in the Camera Roll; device settings (for example, Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts); app data; Home screen and app organization; Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS), ringtones, and more. Media files synced from your computer aren’t backed up, but can be restored by syncing with iTunes.""
    It also seems crazy that the backup would store recent calls i.e. the numbers but not the names they are linked too. Oh well I hope Apple either edit the above clause or make an easier way of backing up contacts to itunes. I don't want the numbers on my phone to be merged on my email program!

  • Updated to Itunes 10 and lost all of my playlists

    Can someone tell me how to get my playlists back? I updated a few days ago to Itunes 10 and have lost all of my playlists etc. Is it possible to dump my IPOD library into Itunes?

    Hi,
    I had the same problem and indeed in the appliactions I found imovie 9.0.9.
    But to make sure all goes well this time, please let me know the next steps.
    I opened the imovie 9.0.9.  (1.2GB) and the previous imove appeared. In the updated version, I can now import
    imovie 9.0.0 zip archive (7.9 MB2).
    Is this the solution ? And do I have to take further steps to amke sure everything is working ?
    Thanks for coming back to me.

  • I updated the ios7.02, and lost all sounds.  What do I do?  This is on my iPad.

    When I updated to ios 7.02 on my i Pad, I lost all sounds.  What can I do to get them back?

    (A) Reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    (B) Make sure sound is not muted in Control Center; tap on the little bell. Swipe upwards from bottom of screen to launch Control Center

    PLEASE HELP! I updated my iphone 3g to the latest software the other day and in return got a clean iphone.... no contacts, no notes, no nothing!
    I think I read everything posted here, and I already tried:
    1. importing from sim - got nothing.
    2. restoring iphone, then re-synching from backup - got nothing.
    I don't even seem to have the location of the backup files on my desktop hp - is that even possible?
    Please help - totally lost without my 300+ contacts.... Thank you!!

  • I just updated to the IOS5 and lost ALL contacts

    I just upddated to the IOS5 and it told me to transfer my purchases to my itunes, which i did. I then installed IOS5 to my iphone 3gs. And followed the on screen prompts on the phone. But upon Exploring i found ALL my contacts were gone. Any ideas? Did I just lose my contacts forever? Are they on icloud somewhere? Any ideas about recovery? I did save all my pictures and obviously my music and apps are stored on itunes.

    I got them all back . Here's how.
    1. plug in your phone to itunes and wait for it to show up in the devices
    2. right click on your device and click restore from backup.
    3. Ta Da!
    Hope this works. Btw this wont erase the IOS5 software just restore your contacts,notes,and such. IOS5 will remain intact. 

  • Updated my i tunes and lost all music

    tried restoring computer to previous date, unsuccessfully

    If for some reason you have failed to put your music in itunes on your computer before updating, then you can redownload some itunes purcahses in some countries:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • Updated the macbook pro and lost all my documents!!

    I can't find any of my files and documents!!! Are they still on here, how do I recover them??!!
    PLEASE HELP ASAP!!!!
    ALL MY ESSAYS ARE GONE

    More detail please, what did you update, the entire operating system upgraded from a earlier verison, (like 10.6 to 10.8) or did you perform a Software Update, or wiped your drive and updated or what?
    If you can't figure it out, then stop what your doing, shutdown and seek the local services of a PC/Mac tech for data recovery options.
    Next time make backups of your data off the machine.

  • Updated to iPhoto 6 and lost all photos!!!

    i just updated my iphoto to the newest version and when i tried to open it all of my photos were gone. i still have them saved in my iphoto library but when i try to import them back onto iphoto it will not work. this is very frustrating and i would appreciate it if someone could help me out here because i am on vacation in europe at the moment and cannot access my photo albums i have been updating!

    natasharileyparish:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If Terence's suggestion regarding rebuilding the library does not bring your library back you'll probably have to start with a new library and import the Originals folder from the old library. Here's how:
    Creating a new library while preserving the rolls from the original.
    Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
    Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    Drag the Originals folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
    This will create a new library with the same rolls as the original library. However dates on the rolls may be different but can be edited as you would the roll title.
    Once this is completed you can delete the iPhoto library folder from the desktop. If desired, you can keep the older library folder to try other fixes on it.
    In the future I recommend you make a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto file after each import and after doing a lot of editing and organizing in the library. Then if you experience a similar crash all you need to do is replace the damaged database file with the backup copy and you'll be back to the same place in the library as when you make the backup. See the tip at the end of my signature.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

    Ps i dont want some smart arse person being rude either

    You're not making a lot of sense...
    Did you update over the air or using iTunes on your computer?
    Music is not part of the iPhone backup. The music should already be in the iTunes library on your computer. Music purchased from the iTunes store can be re-downloaded without charge using the Apple ID used to purchase it originally.
    Photos in the camera roll should be part of the backup. How you recover them depends on how you were backing up and how you performed the update.

  • Updated to v10.3 and lost all my playlists and purchased songs

    After upgrading to v10.3, all my purchased music and playlists were missing. When I go to my purchased music it shows everything i purchased and my acct. activity verifies the same. But when I try to download my previous purchased music, it prompts me to re-purchase music already paid for. Can someone shed light on this issue for me. And how in the world can you communicate with someone from itunes? That express lane stuff is a joke and seemingly a maze to navigate.

    Using the phone as strongly recommended by Apple, you've been synching your contacts with Address Book, Outlook or a Cloud Service.  Just synch your contacts back from whichever of these sources you've been using....
