    Better check your iTunes version. You may need to update to the latest one.

    You downloaded the apps from iTunes itself or from other sources?

    If all your apps were directly downloaded from iTunes, look at the requirements of the app. Some have a minimum iOS version needed while some apps are for iPad only. If it was downloaded outside iTunes, that is a topic not appropriate for this forum.

    That is a possibility but I just synced my wife's new iPhone 4 and used her 3GS backup and it went smoothly. Anyway, I tunes will tell you that the applications is not compatible. My suggestion is to update both iTunes and iPhone.

    Is it possible to download it again, straight from the IP4's AppStore app this time?

    Normally new iOSs are backwards compatible with apps made for previous iOSs. I doubt that an old app won't be restored because of a new iOS. There are corrupt files on your iPhone and iTunes is having problems with them.

    The normal procedure is to do a restore. But don't do it unless you know what you are doing. It can lock a phone, remove Jailbreak, or worse brick it.

    Most already bought apps can be re-downloaded again directly through your iphone or iTunes free of charge, using the same apple id, unless the app author requires an upgrade payment for it.
