Using iTunes 11 - How do you download and update iPhone Apps?

Now that Apple has quaintly updated iTunes to version 11, I can no longer find the Applications listing on the LHS column which allowed easy updating of Applications prior to an iPhone synch. Gone through all of the menus and tabs but nada. I'm needing to do this as iOS 6 has a bad habit of "hanging" application uploads and a MUCH SLOWER wireless connection ... not to mention crappy install times. Any suggestions short of using Android?! I'm also finding it interesting that Apple hasn't updated their search engines or databases to understand/accept iTunes11 OR iOS6. I hate to say it's the beginning signs of a crumbling infrastructure. Something Steve would never accept! ... and HEY ... I OWN a chunk of Apple Stock!!

OK ... so after MUCH head scratching I've learned the following:
To get to the Apps section of your iPhone:
(1) Synch your iPhone (iPod)
(2) From the top Left hand drop down menu in the iTunes window, select "Apps"
(3) After your Apps all show in the window, go to the bottom Right hand side and you'll find the number of "Updates Available". Click on that radio button and it'll download the updated apps.
(4) iTunes will bring up your "My App Updates" window
(5) Select the "Download All Free Updates" symbol and download
(6) Select the "Done" radio button
The App Store will then load onto your next window.
(7) You can then select the "library" radio button in the top Right hand side and you'll see your "iPhone/iPod" radio button appear on the top Right hand side of your next window. Select and synch!
Sort of a convoluted method ... but it works!!

  • I am using itunes version11.1.3.8 and an iphone 4s version 7.0.4. Is there any way that I can create my own ringtones as I had done in the past? Thank you.

    I am using itunes version11.1.3.8 and an iphone 4s version 7.0.4. Is there any way that I can make my own ringtones? I have always done so in the past (Android). I much prefer to hear my songs when someone calls. Thank you.   

    I have tried to follow all the steps correctly. I presently have on itunes 2 entries:
    1. song.m4r with this highlighted on info screen but song location.m4a on summary screen. I have enetered "OK" several times.
    2. song no suffix on info screen but song location .m4r.mp3 on summary screen
      After syncing I then go a contact and edit it. Trying to change ringtone does not give me an option for the ringtone that I created only those that were preloaded. Is there something that I need to do here? The ringtone (at least one of them) does appear in my song  list and I can play it. I don't know how to check for its properties on the iphone.
    I do not have an itunes created entry on the sidebar for ringtones (I did create a playlist myself).

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • HT4528 How do you download pics from iPhone to laptop w/o a usb cord?

    how do you download pics to laptop?

    If you have an iCloud account with Photo Stream enabled with the account settings on your iPhone and with Photo Stream enabled with your iCloud account settings on your computer, all photos captured by your iPhone or saved by the iPhone which are saved in the iPhone's Camera Roll, will be available in your Photo Stream automatically if the iPhone is connected to an available wi-fi network at the time, or will be uploaded to your Photo Stream when the iPhone becomes connected to an available wi-fi network. This will make the photos available in your Photo Stream on your computer without having to import the photos from your iPhone's Camera Roll which requires a USB connection.
    You can transfer the photos in the Photo Stream on your computer to be saved locally on your computer's hard drive.

  • How do you download and install apk files

    Help need some direction on how to do this. Something that's step by step.

    What everyone is trying to tell you, is that loading a file from a source other than the Marketplace could be dangerous to your data, personal information, and your phone. Someone with bad intentions could really mess things up, and steal your data.
    However, Google does provide a way to load and install programs not in the marketplace. However, you do this at your own risk, and it possibly could nullify your warranty on your phone and leave you with a phone that doesn't work, and no warranty to get it replaced. this is a friendly warning, not a lecture.
    You need to into the settings menu, then applications. The top item is called 'Unknown Sources'. Tapping that will being up a warning. You have to agree to the warning. After this is set, then you download the apk from either the web browser or through your USB or bluetooth connection to your computer. After the apk is downloaded, then on your phone, go to the apk location and tap it. That should install it.
    I would not leave the Unknown Sources checked as a rule. A couple of weeks ago, I was playing a game, when my finger accidental brushed an ad, and downloaded 2 apk's. It was blocked from installing because I did not have that checked. I was able to locate the offending apk and delete it without any harm to my X.
    Again, you assume the responsibility for the programs that you install your own phone that are not from the market. Again, this is a friendly warning, not a lecture, and I do not have responsibility for anything that happens to your phone from you loading anything not in the market place by providing these instructions.
    Enjoy your phone.

  • Why i cant download and update my apps ?

    i want to know if i cant download and you guys do not accept my credit card  .... how i can download ?

    Then you must have setup an Apple ID that requires the use of a credit card and something probably needs to be updated on the credit card. Perhaps the card has expired and you need to enter the new expiration date.
    You can update payment information in Settings>iTunes & App Stores. Tap your ID. Tap View Apple ID. Enter your password. Go to Payment Information and tap the arrow in that field to go to a window where you can update the card information. Make sure that the billing address, expiration date and security code are correct.
    If that's not what you are talking about, explain what is happening. Provide detailed information about what is going on.

  • How do you know if your Iphone app is connecting to the internet?

    I'm a brand new Iphone user and I have a question about apps.  I only have the smallest data plan.  I'm wondering how do you know if your app (or any app you download) once opened connects to the internet?
    For instance I have a Netflix subscription.  When I hit the Netflix app is that connecting to the internet?  When I watch a movie or tv in my own que is that still on the internet?
    Or what about the Kindle app or iBooks?  Is it on the internet to read?
    Those are just two small examples.  I'm having a hard time figuring out which apps to download based on if they connect to the internet for their use.

    As a general rule, if the app stores all of its data locally on your phone, a data connection is not needed for that app to function properly. If the app does not store data locally on your phone...streaming apps(Netflix), the built in Maps app, etc., a data connection will be required for the app to function properly. You can minimize your cellular data usage by only using such apps when connected to available WiFi. You also have the ability to turn cellular data completely off in settings: Settings>General>Network>Cellular Data>Off. Best to completely read an apps description before installing such on your phone. If a data connection is required for the app to function, it will state such in the app's description.
