Where are my Mac apps after reinstall

My Mac was wiped clean last night and a new install was done. I was told when I got home that my package of pages, numbers and keynote would be in my purchased section of the App Store, they are not there. How can I get them back?

  • Where are my old apps? Not on new phone.

    I tried transferring my 4s to my 5s with icloud and didn't move 90% of my apps. I tried it again backing up to the computer from 4s then restoring from computer to 5s, again 90% are missing, only the same few apps moved over besides the new ones that came with 5s.  Now if I look at either phone in itunes, all my apps are pictured on the right side (under apps) but nothing is listed on the left side where they all used to be listed. Same with the 5s, the few apps are listed on the right side but there is nothing listed under Apps on the left side.
    Where are all the apps I bought--practically all where bought from the Apple app store. How can I get them and put them on my 5s? Is it because they aren't 64bit? I thought the 5s could handle both. I really need these apps.
    Help!

    Thanks Steve for that quick response!  From other unrelated comments I've read, Apple never helps with password problems, always says, "We don't keep your passwords, so there's no way we can help you with passwords."  But since this is actually more related to PURCHASED-apps not appearing in iTunes, then maybe they would have a more helpful attitude regarding that.
    However, the joke is on me, as I think I was taking gail-from-maine's sentence too literally where she wrote, "
    Sign into iTunes with the Apple ID that you purchased the apps with."  She probably meant different family members might have different IDs/different phones, so make sure you're using the correct one for whichever phone.
    Because I went ahead & used my CURRENT ID/PIN, & followed her directions so far, & yes, whew!, there are 222 apps showing in iTunes.  However, they ALL show the little cloud on them, which gail said means they are NOT on the Mac.  But they ARE on the Mac, under User > Music > iTunes > Mobile Applications.  So I'm cornfused.
    I also notice that some of the apps (in the long list under Mobile Applications/Mac) show a "Creation Date" of 12/31/69 (!!) so I don't know how/why it says that as my clock/time/date is correct/current. Might that be causing a problem?  There appears to be no way to change that "Creation Date" in "Get Info."
    Another question, what happened to the way you could move/re-arrange the location of the apps in iTunes according to screen/pages on the phone?  (with OSX Lion & iTunes 11.1.5, it simply shows all the apps in iTunes in 27 rows of 8 apps each row, but I see no way -- YET -- to rearrange them by different phone-screens/locations, the way it used to show them in older iTunes & you could move them around to where you wanted them to show up on your phone).
    FWIW, I did try doing as gail-from-maine said, "Click on them [in iTunes] to download them [the ones with the clouds on them] to the Mac," (in the lower right of the iTunes page, it has the option/button to "Download ALL"), but it didn't do anything, just a quick blink like flutter/action on iTunes page & no indication that anything was downloading.
    I'd rather have the copies that are already on the Mac under Mobile Applications put on the phone, since they are the ones with CONTENT in them through the last backup, right?  (I don't even know if the 222 apps showing in iTunes actually have any CONTENT in them???)
    As you can tell, I'm not an experienced iTunes user, never cared for that software much.

  • Where are all the Apps Stored?

    Where are all the apps I have purchased from the app store stored, on my PC? They do not appear in the Itunes folder where all the TV programs and music are.

    They are in a subfolder named Mobile Applications. It will be a subfolder wherever you are running your itunes library database ITL file from.
    On XP, the default path for that is
    C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\
    (this is where the default ITL file is stored)
    So your apps would be in this folder
    C:\Documents and Settings\username\My Documents\My Music\iTunes\Mobile Applications

  • Cannot access purchased apps after reinstall and ID change

    I had a security breach on my mac, so I reloaded and reinstalled my OS and changed my apple ID, now I cannot access purchased apps from the app store.  I can access the ones I did not purchase, it just applies to the ones I bought.  Any ideas how to retrieve them?

    OK, and when you say you cannot access purchased apps, I need to know what you mean by that. Where are you trying to access them? What happens when you try to access them? If you are getting some sort of error message, what is it (exactly).
    Cheers,

  • Where are the images stored after migration

    I'm totally lost after migrating my pictures from iPhotos.app to Photos.app...
    From an article from Apple, (see below) there is no duplication of the library even if it looks like (when you look at the GB). So i understand that there is a kind of link or alias for each picture. But i would like to know where the original ones are (imposible to know looking at the finder because both libraries show strangely a lot of GB.
    So I tried different options to understand. If I delete an event in the iPhoto library and definitely trash it, these pictures are still in Photos. And if I delete some pictures in Photos.app definitely (deleting definitely from File Menu > Show Recently Deleted) these pictures are still in iPhoto !!! So where are the real pictures ??? In which library? Somewhere else? Why the two libraries are showing all these Gb and it does'n't correspond to the capacity storage of my hard disk...
    I really don't understand how it works... Any help would be very appreciated.
    Article from Apple :
    Photos saves disk space by sharing images with your iPhoto or Aperture libraries
    Learn how Photos stores images when you migrate your iPhoto or Aperture library and saves disk space by sharing images.
    When you migrate a photo library from iPhoto or Aperture, the Photos app creates a new library structure but doesn't duplicate your images. Instead, Photos saves disk space by creating links to the original and preview versions of your images.When Finder reports the file size of your Photos library, it includes all your originals and previews. It may look like your remaining iPhoto or Aperture library is taking up twice the space on your hard drive, but it isn't—your images exist only in one location, even though you may have more than one photo library.After you migrate your iPhoto or Aperture library to Photos, you might feel tempted to delete your original iPhoto or Aperture library. Because the migrated library takes little additional space, you don't need to delete the original library.

    They're in both libraries; a hard link to a file is indistinguishable from the original file, and either one can be deleted without affecting the other.

  • Where to most Mac App store "would like to see someone develop"

    Where do you post such things:
    Not sure where to post this other than in this topic hoping that developers might be looking here.
    Now that Dataviz discontinued MacLink Deluxe, there are no good apps to convert old WriteNow (one of the early Mac word processers) into a modern format. Sure MS office "kind of" works, but I would defenitely buy an app that only converted (similar to MacLink) old WriteNow 3 and 4 documents into either rtf or doc formats that can be used today.
    Sorry if this is not the place to post such a thing.
    MacLink was good, but had way to many complicated, bloated options. It would be nice just to have a simple app to convert this old format. Maybe alternative apps of this kind could then be purchased to convert more of the file formats that MacLink converted. I think you would sell more of an app that just converted one older file format, however.

    Besides, if you dont' ask, how do you know if anyone else is interested.
    At some point, someone probably asked, "wouldn't it be cool if there was a Mac App store like iTunes for the Mac..."
    Absolutely!

  • Will OS X Maverick affect my programs that are not Mac Apps?

    I have several programs that are not downloaded from the Mac App store.  They are Pro Tools Express and PrintMusic 2011.  Will they be compatible with OS X Maverick?

    You should check with the vendors to see their position. Do they have updates for compatiblity?
    If Mavericks finds apps that are significantly incompatible you will see a message stating it is such. But, it's best to go to the sites for app you care about first.

  • Where are my new apps

    Have downloaded 2 apps from iTunes but can't seem them displayed .where are they

    You did not answer my question - were these apps for an iOS device or for your MacBook?
    Open iTunes - in your Library (i.e. not in iTunes store) select the drop down list on the upper left of the window and select Apps. 
    Are the apps listed there?  If so, connect your iPhone or iPad and the apps will sync with device.
    As I said previously, if you thought you were downloading apps for your MacBook Air, you are mistaken - these have to be bought via App store, not iTunes.

  • Where are the original documents after scanning/copying?

    Where does the document go after it has been scanned or copied on the ADF?   We have scanned three documents and can not find the originals .

    Hi,
    Printer/scanner CAN'T chew the originals, they should be on the glass. Their copies or scanned files normally are in C:\Users\[your logon]\Documents or My documents  depending on which Windows on your computer. You can also find where they are by scanning from your computer and the default folder should be under the preview window or on the screen before Save

  • Where are my old faces after I migrated to Photo

    Where are my "faces" when I moved to "photo" from iPhoto????

    is the Faces album empty, or is the the Faces album missing?
    You should be seeing the Faces album in the "Album" section of the sidebar.
    To show the sidebar, press the key combination ⌥⌘S or use the View menu > Show Sidebar.
    If the Album section is completely empty, hover the pointer to the right of "Albums" to reveal the hidden Show/Hide controls.
    You can also see the Faces in the Info panel for each photo.

  • Where are the Mac Drivers for Windows 7 installation?

    Where can i find the mac drivers for the windows 7 installation?

    If you have a Mac with OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, they are available as a download. You can download them from Boot Camp Assistant (in /Applications/Utilities) or from the Apple site.
    If you have a Mac with Leopard or Snow Leopard, they are included in the Mac OS X disc that came with your Mac or in the Snow Leopard DVD. However, as you are going to run Windows 7, you can find more recent drivers in the Apple site as Boot Camp Support Software, depending on the Windows editions your Mac supports > http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5634

  • HELP! I LOST many apps after reinstalled the 10.2.1 OS

    My phone is Z10, and the previous carrier is O2. (now I already unlocked it). Yesterday, I post an message about my phone 's problem, today I did , but after I reinstalled the 10.2.1 OS. Something happened.  Please take a look and help me .
    1. The starting windows image is changed (not China unicom or ).\ feels  a little bit slower than before,
    2. I lost many apps, the voice control、twitter、 youtube、music etc. Now my phone only have one page of apps( should be three page of apps). And the monitor doesn't  have reaction when I tapped it.
    3.when I recover my back-up, I found out only those apps from BBW or original apps recovered, the others not.
     So what should I do now? I have tried twice to reinstall OS.   

    Based on the screenshot you didn't follow my instructions in the other thread and reinstall the OS using BB Link.  You installed a developer version of the OS that you downloaded from somewhere that is incomplete.  Please do the following if you're not using Link to install the OS officially:
    1. Connect your device to your PC and make a full backup with BB Link (if you don't already have a backup.)
    2. Download the correct autoloader for your device from the first post in the thread linked below. You need to know your full model number (i.e. STL100-1 (or -2, -3, -4) which can be found in Settings >About. Make sure you download the one for your model that contains the radio file. There is another crackberry thread that contains a newer radio file that you can load once you're all done if you want to have the latest and greatest. The process for loading a radio file is the same as this process but no need for backup/restore.

    You will need to unzip the downloaded file from above before you can run it. If you don't have an unzipping application on your computer you can download 7Zip from here: http://www.7-zip.org/download.html
    Close BB Link and leave the device connected.
    Double click on the autoloader you downloaded.
    The process should take around 5 minutes or so. when it's done, you'll need to complete the startup process before you can connect to Link and restore data.
    When you're done you can restore your backup, though I recommend NOT restoring your Settings backup as it's best to start clean with this new OS but it's up to you. You may experience small bugs here and there from restoring the Settings portion of the backup. Media and Application data seem to be OK to restore.
    This will install the correct version that has all the apps you're missing.
