Viewing iphone apps on ipad

Hello Everyone,
I recently bought an iPad2. When I synced it to my iTunes account, I knew that all of the apps I have purchased that work on the iPad and iPhone would be transferred to my iPad. I didn't think any iPhone only apps would be transferred. However, when I went to the App store to look at the iPad versions of my iPhone apps, it shows that the iPhone versions are installed on the iPad, but I don't see the icon. I can search the iPad and find the iPhone only app and open it but again I cannot find out how to open this just by selecting its icon. Is there a setting or something where I can have the iPhone only apps show up on the iPad? Thanks.

Unless you de-selected the apps on the Apps tab when syncing to your computer's iTunes then all compatible apps would be synced - only those where you might have a high enough iOS version or iPhone apps which require full phone capability wouldn't be synced.
On the iPad all apps should show, there is no 'hide iphone apps' settings (though some apps can be hidden via Settings > General > Restrictions, in which case they wouldn't show up in searches). If you can only find the apps via the spotlight search screen but not just by going through your homescreens, then how many homescreens have you got - there is a limit of 11, after which apps can only be accessed via the search screen, though you can use app folders to make of them 'visible'

    Sync your apps from the iPhone using iTunes to your PC then sync the iPad.

  • Besides the pixel issue any other reason not to use iphone apps in ipad?

    besides the pixel issue any other reason not to use iphone apps on ipad??

    There are no technical reasons why you can't use them (unless they are some of the few apps that require full phone capability which you won't be able to install). -If you are happy with either using them in an iPhone sized portion of the screen, or with the pixelated 2x size, then use them. I use quite a few apps from my iPhone and iPod Touch, and I've got used to the pixelisation and I don't really notice it as much as I used to.

  • Viewing iPhone Content On iPad?

    Going abroad with my iPhone and my iPad and I am asking: can I view my iPhone content on my iPad? assuming with wi-fi or even better, without it?
    Thanks,

    You can probably create a personal hotspot and then your iPad will be online. It's hard on the iPhone battery, but it works well. I do it.

  • Populating data in iPhone app to iPad

    Does anyone know how to populate the stored information I have on my iPhone apps to my iPad? I've synched all the apps, but on the iPad they are all empty... Not a single app transferred the info. Things like my book library with all the books I've read, my secure app that keeps all my private account info, my food shopping app with favorite foods for creating shopping lists, etc. Help!

    If you mean synching with itunes so everything from my iphone appeared on my ipad - then I did that. All of the apps appeared... they are just empty. I'm trying to figure out how to 1) populate them with the information IN the app from my iphone, and 2) when I make updates from one to the other, then allow a synch to translate the data from one to the other.

  • Conversion of iPhone apps to iPad apps

    Does anyone know if the iPhone's 'Oracle Business Indicators' app has been converted for use with the iPad?

    This app has not been updated since the release of the Ipad. Is is only listed as an iPhone app. This does not mean it will not work, just that if it does work, it will be in the smaller iPhone format, which can be expanded on the iPad using the 2X button in the corner of the display.

  • Can I sync iphone apps to ipad? ie Calculator, weather, compass?

    Can I sync iphone apps to ipad2? ie calculator, weather, compass?

    You can sync apps that you downloaded from the App Store - you cannot sync Apple's built-in apps from one device to another (they are part of the iOS and cannot be deleted or transferred)

  • Trying to sync iPhone apps to iPad--iTunes freezes up...

    Aargh. When I first connected I my iPad to my Win7 (32-bit) machine, I checked off the Apps box. It started syncing apps, but would get through about six and then freeze up--progress bar stopped, and task manager listed iTunes as Not Responding. Have since hard reset the iPad and reinstalled iTunes and successfully synced photos, contacts, etc. However, when I click on the Apps tab, it pulls up the list and then iTunes freezes, even before I can start selecting specific apps.
    Any ideas?

    Have you run iTunes as "administrator."
    Or chosen to run iTunes in another version? Kind of Vodoo that sometime can trick.
    Is the iTunes for Windows running 32 bit in your 64 bit OS?
    Have you also done the game of changing USB slots? With my iTouch sometimes I've had to use the back ones on my Asus Striker.
    And there's sometimes an issue with other USB slots being used for such things as product key registration. that persuaded Toonboom Studio to drop product keys the mayhem ruined Vista... well one of many.
    My old Toonboom Pro USB product refused to allow me to boot another app and produced some weird readings until i unplugged the USB keys, USB external drive and my USB camera.
    Windows 7 Ultimate is amazingly solid, 64 bit especially for once MS has equaled Snow leapord so if non of this works I suggest you push to go up the ladder.
    Failing any resolution it might be the cables or the iPad.
    You clearly have a modern system and Windows 7 64bit Ultimate is not Vista so push hard as it also educates Apple tech support.
    If it's Apps alone not syncing it sounds like you should also go into Windows and open the At Start up list window and click exclude all MS software then deselect your anti-virus and most other apps except for all networking.
    I've found many an application that failed to install correctly would after running as administrator and deselecting all apps at start up that are not directly needed for network and of course iTunes. Get rid of virus software, Steam and all Adobe.
    Streamline your startup and you'll find the Apps will sync.
    Good luck.

  • ITune App Store lists iPhone apps only. Even though I have an iPad.

    I have an iPad. Yet when I look for Apps in the iTunes Store. I get catagories with listings for iPhone Apps not iPad apps. My iPad is synced with this computer. I cannot find a preference anywhere to change this. Help please.

    If you are using the App Store on your iPad then there should be 'iPad Apps' and 'iPhone apps' buttons at the top of the screen. If you are on your computer's iTunes then there should be iPhone and iPad buttons at the top of the App Store home page

  • Where can I view all apps by a publisher?

    In ios 7 I don't see "view all" when your on a publishers page where it shows all the apps on it.  But I don't see a view all button for either iPhone apps or iPad apps.
    Where is it the button to view all of the apps?

    I'm not sure about "all".  They even say "This is a showcase for -some- of the featured and top ranked applications and games available on Android Market".  I never cared much for the official Market page mainly because it's too hard to find anything and there aren't any reviews...

  • Sync iPhone 4 with iPad

    I want to use my iPhone apps on iPad and vice versa . Anybody knows how to do it. When I connect the iPhone to I tune, I can see the iphone applications. When I connect the iPad, I can't see on the desktop the application that are installed on the iPad, although I do have application installed. I don't think itune backs them up at all.
    Anybody knows how to sync the apps between them using the desktop.
    Also mobile me, can it assist in it, why what mobile me is good for
    Thanks

    The problem is that tune recognize I pad but does not let go inside. When I connect iPhone I can log into the device, with the iPad connected I can just eject, that's it, nothing els. I saw that other users have the same problem but I did not see any common solution yet. I am not a newbie, I know one or two things about computers. There is a communication problem here, I have win 7 if it helps

    I have been asked to review a new app for Ipad/iphone . The developers site is asking me to download a plug- in to view, is this safe

    What does http://developer.apple.com/ have to do with reviewing an app? Why aren't you downloading from the App Store?
    I've never had any login there result in a request for any app....
    The Dev Center is as safe as your logon...

  • I just started using the Pages app on my iPad2. Two questions: Do I have to buy the Pages iPhone app separately or will the iPad version sync to my iPhone 3GS? Am I able to sync Pages docs created on my iPad2 for viewing/editing on my iPhone 3GS?

    You can use the File Sharing feature at the bottom of the iTunes Apps pane when you connect to iTunes. Transfer the documents to your computer, and from there to your iPhone.

    Also using iTunes 11.4 on Windows 8.1 Enterprise 64-bit. Crashes in the "syncing apps" stage. Happens on two different user accounts, one using an iPod Touch and one using an iPhone 5.
    Clean uninstall/reinstall doesn't make any difference. Safe mode doesn't make any difference (no plug-ins installed).
    Stack trace shows an unknown routine in iTunesMobileDevice.dll calling Microsoft C++ runtime routine _wstat32i64 with a null name parameter. This is definitely an iTunes 11.4 bug.

    *int _stat(name, buf) - get file status info
    *Purpose:
    *      _stat obtains information about the file and stores it in the
    *      structure pointed to by buf.
    *      Note: We cannot directly use the file time stamps returned in the
    *      WIN32_FIND_DATA structure. The values are supposedly in system time
    *      and system time is ambiguously defined (it is UTC for Windows NT, local
    *      time for Win32S and probably local time for Win32C). Therefore, these
    *      values must be converted to local time before than can be used.
    *Entry:
    *      _TSCHAR *name -    pathname of given file
    *      struct _stat *buffer - pointer to buffer to store info in
    *Exit:
    *      fills in structure pointed to by buffer
    *      returns 0 if successful
    *      returns -1 and sets errno if unsuccessful
