everytime I buy or download an app from the app store on the phone it does show in my app list in iTunes after syncing. Anyone else have this issue?

I don't have that issue but recommend you only purchase apps directly from iTunes and then sync to the phone. Many users are reporting issues when they try to get apps directly from the iPhone and transfer to iTunes. Perhaps the next real update will address this.

I have this same problem. And I am pissed becuase I am going to loose 30 dollars worth of apps. Do you guys have any idea what to do? My just stops syncing on one of the apps and just does not go any further.

It should ask you if you want to transfer your purchases to iTunes. Don't worry you won't lose your money. You can download the app again if you've already paid for it and you're logged into iTunes with the same account that you purchased the app under.

It did ask me if I wanted to transfer apps to iTunes. And it did transfer like 4 of them but stopped on Holdem and would not go further. I want to upgrade to 2.1 but I don't wan to loose the games. So if I just don't back it all up I will still be able to load the games again from the app store without paying for them again? Thanks, Taras

yeah, u can just download them again, this is what i had to do cuz itunes wouldnt back mine up either. infact when i was syncing (cuz i had downloaded all mine from the phone, not on the computer) it started deleting all the apps off my phone cuz they werent in my itunes on the computer. i really wish i didnt have to use itunes, ive always hated it lol

Try this. In itunes go to file-transfer purchases.

I have the same issue it seems it is Holdem only. I have done that and it still gets stuck. It takes several tries to get it transfer. It is 122 MB so it is kind of big too.
