Why can I not restore my apps on my new iPhone

I broke my iPhone so just had it replaced,I've restored it from the iCloud back up,but lost most of my apps. How do I get them back? Also it's meant to automatically back up every day,yet since I've restored,it says last back up was last September which is months a go! I don't understand what's happened can anyone please help?

Purchased apps can be redownloaded here:
Open the App Store app > Updates > Purchased
You can not schedule an iCloud backup.
You can run it manually here:
Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Back Up Now
or
It will backup automatically if:
It is connected to Wi-Fi
It is connected to a power source
The screen is locked
If any of these 3 conditions aren't met, it will not backup automically.

Why can I not download any apps to my Itouch Gen 2?

Why can I not download any apps to my Itouch Gen 2?
SO, I just purchased 2 4th gen ITouch’s and a 2nd gen Ipad for my kids. All is well and fine however my second gen device is toast so I am using one of my kids older 2 gen ITouch. My kids had been complaining that they could not download anything on the 2nd gen devices but I figured they were doing something wrong, my bad. The device has Netflix that works just fine but I am finding that if I were to delete the app and did not have it backed up I would not be able to get it back from the appstore. The device has been taken care of and is in good working order, but I am finding that Apple has chosen to no longer support IOS4.2.1 which I get. However I would expect that at a minimum I would be able to download any app that was available for the 4.2.1 os at the time the next version was released.
Drive space it cheap and ****** off customers are expensive.
Apparently Apple has planned obsolescence built into their business plan which I am finding pretty hard to swallow.
I just purchased over a grand worth of new devices and I am wondering if that was wise since apparently apple will deem them obsolete in a couple of years. That great because the newer devises are great, however I have a devise that there is nothing wrong with and apple has made the choice to no longer support the devise and not allow applicable software downloads making the devise basically useless. This is not supporting your customers!
I would hope that Apple changes their posture on this planned Obsolescence and backs its products durability with the ability to get applicable apps for the actual lifetime of the devise and not some 2 year window.
I brought my concerns to the nearest apple store where they gave me some song and dance about how the older devise was not fast enough. This is probably true for the newer apps but I think if this was a limitation then ITunes should make the newest version of the app at the time of the app is available for the devise.
Like I said drive space is cheap and this is like a row in some database.
I am wondering if I will continue to buy apple products.

If it really is only your email, that is not valid, reset your primary email address at https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/
If that does not work, because of a forgotten password or security questions, or because your account has been disabled for security purposes, you need to give Apple Support a call - only they will be able to help you. See this webpage on how to contact Apple Support in your country: There are either telephone numbers given or an email form:

Explain, that you need help with an account security problem.

HT1933 Why can you not resolve an app purchase problem simply ! As you have done in the past

Why can you not resolve an app purchase problem simply ! As you have done in the past

Most of the people on these forums, including myself, are fellow users - you're not talking to iTunes Support here.
If you have a problem with an app that the developer can't/won't help you with then you will need to contact iTunes Support, either as described on the page that you posted from, or via the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that app and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem

I can see my old backups in icloud why can I not restore them to my phone they do not appear as an option when I click on restore

Hi, Samanthacarol.
If you are able to see the backup file in iCloud but unable to restore from the backup, then the article below will explain the solution.

Go to settings, then scroll down to appstore and itunes store. Then tap id and sign out. Next, sign in again.
Or restart the device by holding power button until red slider appears. Slide it. After the iphone turns off. Hold the power button to turn it backon. Then try the solution above.

HT201303 How can we delete our credit card details and also why can we not download free apps or by apps with credit from an i store card that has been redeemed????

How can I delete credit cards details from my iPad Air and why cant I use credit from a i store card that has been redeeme?

To remove the card's details from your iTunes account, tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account - on your account's page there should be a payments link. Or you can do it via your computer's iTunes : go into the Store > View Account menu option and log into your account, and on your account's details click on the payment details link.
Changing payment info : Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID) - Apple Support
If you don't get the 'none' option on the payment details screen : Why can’t I select None when I edit my Apple ID payment information? - Apple Support
What happens when you try to buy something ? If you are trying to gift content then you will need to have a credit card on your account, your balance can't be used for gifting ; if you are trying to buy for yourself and you have a credit card on your account then its details need to be correct and complete - but your balance should be charged for the purchase.

HT1918 Why can i not now update apps which I have already paid for because my credit card was declined?

My credit card was rejected but now I can't even use the apps I have already paid for. *** iTunes! I can't delete the card and use another payment method can't do anything. Is there a way around this? Or just another case of apple rear ending us hard?

We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
If you have a credit card on your account then it will need to be valid. If you don't have a card to replace it with then have you tried removing it from your account ? On your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link.
Changing payment info : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1918
If you don't get the 'none' option on the payment details screen then do you owe iTunes anything or have any pre-orders/subscriptions due : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5366 ?

Why can I not access the app store on itunes?

How come when I attempt to access the app store on itunes, It attempts to load and then gives me a blank white screen?
Everything else seems to work fine, its just the app section.
I am using the latest version of Itunes on a mac.

You need to update the iOS. Go here to get the last update for your 1G iPod
Purchasing iOS 3.1 Software Update for iPod touch (1st generation)
Not that there are not that many apps compatible with 3.1.3.

Why can I not sign in and download my new copy of photoshop elements 12

Why can't I download my new program---first it asks for my adobe ID--which I give it and then it says not recognized--so I try and try and try again--changing the password--then it asks for a serial number and gives me 24 spaces--but the serial number has 30 spaces--why haven't adobe--as big as they are not got decent help.

Version 13 is the current version. Did you purchase version 12, and from where?

Why can i not see items on ical on my iphone that are older than 6 months ago?

I am not able to see entries on my iphone ical that are older than 6 months. am i do something wrong?

I could be wrong but I dont believe Itunes supports restoring your music from your ipod to a new PC, if you sync from the new pc you will likely lose the music on your ipod. If you search the internet there are third party software programs which will help you retrieve your music from your ipod if it is the only copy you now have. If the music was purchased from itunes you will be able to download it again.
Hope this helps
