After Restoring computer, newly downloaded itunes does not have my apps.

[ky70]

Hello All,

I've been a big fan of this site since I got my IPhone in August. I've found answers to many questions by just looking around here but I have an issue that I have not found an answer for.

My computer had to be restored (long story) but now my concern is that the apprx. 120 apps on my IPhone are not on my itunes after redownloading the program. I'm not concerned with losing music and movies as I can get that again without much trouble, but I how can I get my apps from my IPhone onto my Itunes (if I sync my apps, my Iphone apps will be wiped away, correct)?

What options do I have (currently I just avoid syncing my apps with itunes)?

Any direction is appreciated.

Thanks!!

make sure you authorize your computer by going to store tab on your itunes... once you authorize it, if you plug your phone in it should say say there are apps on the phone that aren't on the computer and if you want to sync them to the library... if that doesn't show up, you would have to manually go through all the apps you bought and get them again... if you have your computer authorized, you won't have to pay for them again it will just ask you if you want to download it again for free...
