Q: Some apps & Notes not syncing between iPhone 4S & MacBook Pro
Recently I had to return an employer's iPhone 6. But before I did, I bought a second-hand iPhone 4S.
I synced the iPhone 4S via iTunes and then wiped the iPhone 6 and returned it to my employer.
Everything seemed to be fine, but now I've discovered that not all apps and not all Notes are syncing between the iPhone 4s and my MacBook Pro.
The list of apps showing up in iTunes on my MacBook Pro is much shorter than the apps actually on the iPhone 4S. It seems to be only those apps I've downloaded since the switch from the iPhone 6.
Is there a way to sync iTunes on my old MacBook (which has all the old iPhone apps) with iTunes on my new MacBook Pro (which has all the new iPhone apps)?
All insights appreciated!
iPhone 4S, iOS 9.3.2

There could be two possible reason for this to happen,
- You used a different Apple ID to log in the first time when you downloaded the apps, or
- you have them hidden from viewing in the App Store. Which you can check from your desktop or laptop computer using iTunes.,Hide and unhide iTunes Store, App Store, or iBooks Store purchases - Apple Support
