Tunes (11), consolidated/organized, and had all files/folder in EXT HD including Mobile Applications. However, iTunes library .xml in INT HD.
All working fine, then all of sudden INT HD failed, and lost Libary .xml in INT HD.
Luckily had a few wks old Libary .xml backed up. Upon re install OSX (10.6.8), used old .xml to rebuild iTunes libary.
As of now, I've got iTunes to recognize all music, video, books files in EXT HD. Path all correct. all info correct. EXCEPT for Mobile Applications folder. Nothing appears in Apps library!!!
As a test, I've backed up iPhone via manual (NOT sync). iTunes created a new back up, AND somehow sync (copied) a few of latest Apps that i've updated via Phone earlier, to "Mobile Applications" folder in EXT HD, same folder WHERE all of my current apps still exist!!!
How can i get these other Apps to be shown in iTunes? And, if I SYNC my iPhone, will iTunes 'transfer' (copy) apps to iTunes since it doens't recognize any? Will this be better solution?
HELP?!Not sure if I really want to download all these apps again,
