Why I cannot transfer my apps from ipad to itunes?

Hello everybody,
I have a 3° generation ipad with ios 6. It's full (16 Gb) and now with itunes 11 I'm not able to transfer my apps (purchased and free version) from ipad to itunes.
I don't wanna erase the apps from ipad. In itunes 10 this operation was easy to perform.
Maybe I've done some mistakes.
Suggestions.
Thanks.

Abort transfer app from iPad to iTunes

How to abort transfer app from iPad to iTunes when sync process? Every time when I sync my iPad Mini (iOS 8.1.3.) to iTunes (Mac OS, 12.0.1) every app is copied to iTunes media on my Mac. How avoid this unnecessary process?

If you only delete the files from your Mac via Finder, but leave them listed in the Apps part of your iTunes library, then they will not be copied back from your iPad when you sync again (unless there is a newer version on it).
If you do have to restore to a backup at any point in the future then to restore to an iTunes backup you will need the apps on your computer (a backup does not contain the actual apps, just their content/settings), and you may not be able to redownload them from the store (e.g. if the developer has removed them). An iCloud backup also doesn't contain your apps, it will redownload what it can from the store.

Could I transfer my apps from iPad to iPad 2 without repurchasing again ?

Could I transfer my apps from iPad to iPad 2 without repurchasing again ?

Yes - you can install your apps on as many iOS devices as you've got. You can also re-download them for free (assuming that they are still available) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

Syncing selected apps from iPad to iTunes

Is there a way to transfer only selected apps from iPad to iTunes? I would like to transfer only apps that need an update so that i can update it with iTunes instead.

You can only install new apps on iTunes and transfer them to iPad,you cannot update apps that are already on your iPad using iTunes.

How can i transfer my apps from ipad to macbook

Sorry i´m a new user of macbook. I try to transfer my apps from my ipad to
my new macbook pro.
I try it with the tutorial and i tranfer my apps from itunes and autorize my new macbook
but i can see in my folder the apps but it doesnt work making double click.
Thank you

emijogar, you can backup your iPad apps on your MacBook Pro (using iTunes), but you can't actually run those apps on your laptop.
Mac desktops and laptops run OSX, but iPhones, iPads and iPod Touches run iOS. These are two different operating systems. That's why they have different App Stores (the Mac App Store for OSX, and the iTunes App Store for iOS).
You can't run OSX apps on mobile devices, and you can't run mobile apps on a laptop or desktop.
It's sorta like trying to put a bicycle tyre on a car. It just doesn't fit.
However, many OSX apps have iOS versions, and vice versa. Just check the App Stores to see what's available.

HT1848 Cannot transfer old podcasts from ipad podcast app to itunes.

I have a number of old podcasts downloaded on my ipad that aren't available from the server anymore. How do I transfer them to itunes so I can then transfer them again to my ipod nano?
I have tried syncing podcasts through itunes, but it only displays the podcasts in itunes, not the ones on the ipad.
I have tried doing a transfer purchases from ipad, but this seems to transfer everything BUT the podcasts.
There isn't a button on the ipad app itself to do this, except the one that sends a text message with a no longer valid web url.
Anything else that I haven't tried yet?

In Windows
In 11.0.1
Click the icon at top left of iTunes
Click "Show menu bar"
or
Hold down ctrl key and press the B key i.e Ctrl/B
After that - Go to

Backing up Apps from ipad to itunes

Hi - I have an old ipad vs 1 which hasn't had it's OS updated for ages. When I connect it to my computer, and want to update the os, I'm told by itunes that all the apps will go, and to back them up. The problem I have is that I have an iphone with all its apps backed up to itunes. I can't find a way to just back up the apps on the ipad to itunes without syncing the whole lot, which will mean that all my apps from my iphone will go onto the ipad, which I don't want. Basically, how do I manually back up the apps from my ipad.
Thanks,
Mark.

Doing File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases) will copy any apps (and any other purchases e.g. music, films etc) that aren't on your computer's iTunes over to it from your iPad. Copying purchases over to your iTunes library won't affect a device's backup, and backing up your iPad won't affect your iPhone's backup.
Before starting the update you may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button. The update process should take a backup, empty the iPad, install the new iOS version, and then restore the backup so that the previous contents are copied back (but for a restore to work fully you need all of the relevant apps on your computer's iTunes as they are not included in a backup, just their content and setting, which is one reason why you should do the Transfer Purchases).
Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
A first gen iPad should update to iOS 5.1.1 (it doesn't support iOS 6).

Old computer crashed. Bought new computer. Downloaded itunes. How do i get my apps from IPAD to itunes on new computer?

my old computer crashed. I bought a new one and downloaded itunes. When I try to Sync my IPAD, I am asked if I want to replace the apps on my IPAD with the apps on the computer. There are no apps on the computer except the few that are installed when you have a new device. I am afraid of losing all of my apps and info on my IPAD. How do I sync and not lose anything?

You need to transfer all content from the iPad into the iTunes library, backup the iPad, restore from the backup and then sync with iTunes. If you had the iTunes library stored or backed up elsewhere, that would be the ideal thing to use, but apparently you don't have I backed up so .....
It is all explained in this discussion.

How do I get Itunes to separate my husbands device from mine? We have seperate accounts but when I want to transfer my apps from iphone to itunes (after logging in) itunes lists transfer device as my husbands

I am getting a new iphone so I need to backup my apps to itune.
Then after purchase I will load them on to iphone5
My husband has a separate iphone separate Itunes/app accounts
I upgraded itunes. Then logged on to my account. But when I start to file/devices to transfer - it lists his account not mine.
Somehow itunes is associating my window log in with him and it lists our apps together (his/mine) under the library section/apps. I think I will end up with his apps and mine then he will end up with the same.
Any ideas how to get the device transfer to list my account?

Best option is to make each a user on the computer then it work as it should otherwise you need to change appleid in itunes between phones being connected

Cannot transfer new songs from iPhone to iTunes.

After switching to iCloud my iPhone automatically created a new Playlist and all new songs purchased on my iPhone were downloaded into that new Playlist. Now that entire Playlist is not syncing into my iTunes on my PC. I tried "Transfer Purchases", "sync", etc. What to do?

Have you installed the iCloud control panel on your computer (assuming that you have a Windows computer)?
This iCloud functionality may be missing from your pc/iTunes, no?
