If it's in the Apps part of your computer's iTunes library (did you do File > Transfer Purchases before udpating ?) then you can sync it back over to your iPad, otherwise you will need to re-download it (apps themselves aren't included in a backup, just teir content and settings). If it shows as installed in the Purchased tab in the App Store app then have you checked all you homescreens and app folders for it then can you find it via the iPad's spotlight search screen ?

I assume that it's in the Apps section of your computer's iTunes library, but if it isn't then you can add it back via File > Add To Library. You can then sync it back to your iPad - I assume that it is the computer that you normally sync your iPad to (?)

As long as the account is authorised on your computer's iTunes (which I assume that it must be if you've managed to add it back into its library) then you should be able to sync it. That is the computer that you normally sync the iPad to, so it's got all of your content on it and, if you have any other iTunes accounts which have content on the iPad, then they are also authorised on that iTunes ?

You should be able to authorise the account on that computer via the store drop-down menu at the top of it e.g. on a Mac (a PC should be similar) :

User uploaded file


If you are on iTunes 11 on a PC then pressing Alt-S should open the Store drop-down menu.


But if you've managed to add it back into the Apps section of your iTunes library then isn't that account already authorised ?
