Where are my apps in the new iTunes?

iTunes seem to have update itself and now my Apps have disappeared. Where are my apps in the new iTunes (v 12.7.0.166)?

MacBook Air (13-inch, Early 2014), OS X Yosemite (10.10.1), 16 GB Ram; 480 GB SSD

The idea is that all app management takes place on the device. If you have any apps that are no longer in the store that you want to put on your device these will still be in the old Mobile Applications folder and can be manually dragged & dropped to the device. Likewise with ringtones.


From Manually manage content on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iTunes - Apple Support:


Manually add items from your computer

If you have media on your computer that you can't redownload from the App Store or iTunes Store directly on your iOS device, such as custom ringtones or iOS apps, you can drag and drop the media from your computer to your iOS device using iTunes.

  1. Connect your device to your computer.
  2. Open iTunes. Make sure that you have the latest version.
  3. On your computer, find the item you want to add to your device. If you're looking for Apps, Tones, or Books (for Windows) that previously appeared in your iTunes library, you can find them in your iTunes media folder.
  4. Drag the item from your computer to your iOS device in the left sidebar of iTunes.User uploaded file

I totally agree with you. These developers make changes, give not explanation, and the product gets worse. Even more frustrating is the fact that they don't care. This is why so many people are not afraid to switch to android. They get fed up. This is one of the dumbest changes ever. This is just lake taking the headphone jack out of the iPhone and making millions of people use that stupid adapter and not be able to charge their phone at the same time. Ugh!!!! Get with it Apple, or you are going to lose more and more customers.
