I have been having a recurring problem since Thanksgiving. For no reason, my iphone will die. The battery is not dead, but it will not turn on. The only way I can get it to turn on is holding the Home button and the on/off button at the same time (I think its called a hard reset). Anyway, each time I do that it takes longer and longer to get the Apple back. I took it to the Apple store on Friday. They told me I just needed to download the latest update. The employee told me he had the same issue with his phone and this fixed it. So he downloaded the update for me and I went on my way. Then Saturday morning the same thing happened again, it completely died and I had to reset it. And again this morning. Is anyone else having these issues? Is there any way to resolve it? Thank you!

You should be able to go into the app store on your phone and manually search the lost apps. Once you find them, you ought to be able to download them again without having to pay for them as apple does keep a record of the apps you buy with your itunes account. Hope that helps!
