Don’t you hate it when you accidently delete an app from your library on iTunes?

When you purchase an app on your iPhone it automatically shows up in iTunes. This is because your iPhone automatically transfers new app purchases during a sync.

What happens if the apps in iTunes are lost? You can force a sync anytime you want. Simply right-click your iPhone in the iTunes Devices section and choose “Transfer Purchases.” Any application on your iPhone that isn’t in iTunes will immediately be moved.

I discovered this when trying to get an app off my phone after I cancelled the message asking me if I’d like to transfer files. You’ll also notice you can do more by right-clicking such as backing up on command.

Enjoy
