Not all apps transferred from iPhone 4 to iTunes

For some reason I do see that when transferring my purchased apps to iTunes on my notebook from my iPhone 4 that e.g. Wordfeud is being transferred, but it doesn't appear in iTunes.... Anybody got a clue why I am unable to see the apps in iTunes? I will shortly get my 4S so I want to assure that my purchased apps can be used in it, but without transferring them to my notebook I don't see how I could manage to do that.

N.B. I have both an iPhone 4 and iPad for which I obviously use the same iTunes account.

iPhone 4, iOS 4.3.3

In addition: I found out that the apps are linked to my iTunes account, because I was able to download them to my notebook free of charge... This makes it even stranger that they were not placed in my iTunes library eventhough I synched all the purchases from my iPhone 4 to my notebook.

I have the same issue. For istance, I have an Iphone 4, Ipad, Macbook Pro (v. 10.6.8) and once I tried to sync everything together I am not able to see some app on Itunes nor am I able to see them on Icloud. Have you been able to resolve this? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

My issue was due to the fact that I did not authorize my notebook. There was no clear message that enabled me to see this. I removed the license as I did a reinstall and put an old image back in place. Easy fix for me, but anoying that it wasn't easy to find an answer. Maybe this will resolve it for you as well. Please let me know.
