Comments on: When restoring (UN-jailbreaking) doesn’t restore everything http://macenstein.com/default/2009/06/when-restoring-un-jailbreaking-doesnt-restore-everything/ Mac news and rumors dug up on the web and sewn into and unholy monster Sat, 11 Feb 2012 19:47:13 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: johnny0 http://macenstein.com/default/2009/06/when-restoring-un-jailbreaking-doesnt-restore-everything/comment-page-1/#comment-185985 johnny0 Sun, 28 Jun 2009 09:44:51 +0000 http://macenstein.com/default/?p=4588#comment-185985 Things carry over even when you sync to a new iPhone. On my new 3GS, I can't see any of the app store apps I had hidden with Categories on my 3G. Even if I delete them in iTunes, sync, then reinstall (either on the App Store app, or via iTunes) they still don't show up on the iPhone. If I install via the App Store, I see the app icon and the blue download bar, and then POOF. Guess I either reset the iPhone and manually install everything, or I wait until the 3GS is jailbreakable, which seems to be soon... Good reason not to have 100 apps hidden in Categories, I guess. Ugh. Things carry over even when you sync to a new iPhone.

I'm also in need for a general restore but I don't think it makes sense right now because I could also restore to 3.0 on Thursday, right?

Once the restore is completed you should be okay to update the iPhone to 3.0.
