So, I have borrowed a friends old iPhone (first generation) until the new version comes out. I've restored it, set it up, and it's been working fine for about a month. with one exception:
Everytime I connect it to my computer and iTunes, it won't backup the apps I've installed:
"Some of the purchased items on the iPhone [NAME], including 'Zombie Farm', could not be transferred to your iTunes library because you are not authorized to play them on this computer.
To authorize the computer for items purchased from the iTunes store, choose Store > Authorize computer."
Then it shows me a list of EVERY app I've installed.
I've done the above instructions, and when I authorize my computer and log into my iTunes store, it tells me I've already authorized this computer and have 4 computers left. I've done this several times over the past month hoping it would 'reset', but no luck.
I'm planning on getting the new iPhone in a few weeks, and am worried all of the apps I have will not be transferred.
Help?
