set up new iphone 6s and apps are greyed out

II have just set up my new iPhone 6s plus, set up from my last back up off my iPhone 5s and all my pics and music etc are on there but all of my apps are greyed out.


How do I sort this?


Thanks

Just had the same problem with new iPhone 6s. Sorted it out with iTunes connected to phone.

While the 'waiting ' message appears in iTunes, select one of the installed apps and click to remove. Button changes to 'Will remove". Click again so it reverts to 'remove' and Apply button bottom right becomes active. I clicked this and a bunch of the greyed out apps synced up again. I did this a few times until all apps were synced. The phone asked for iTunes login a few times, but I'm not sure if that was related or because I had used two different stores for apps.

Hope this works for you
