I want to update my iPad 2 currently running on 6.02 to 6.1 so I can jailbreak it. So i've backed it up and I am trying to do a restore to the new firmware. However, when I try to sync, iTunes tells me there are purchases that need to be transferred from my iPad.
When I try to do this, it finds 16 apps (only apps) that it cannot sync as my computer is not authorised.
The odd thing is, my computer is authorised, I even de-authorised and re-authorised it to make sure (and iTunes even confirms that the computer is already authorised too). I only have one Apple ID and i've only ever had one apple ID. No-one else uses this computer so there is not even any other Apple IDs lurking in the computer somewhere.
I've tried a number of solutions I found via Apple support website and none of them work (such as de- then re-authorising the computer), stopping and restarting Apple Mobile Device Service, removing folders etc.
My iTunes is definitely the most up-to-date as I downloaded and installed the latest version before I jailbroke my iPhone yesterday.
I know I could just repurchase the apps but some of them were quite pricey (one app in particular cost me ?40 (approx $60)) so I do not want to drop nigh on ?100 on replacing them.
I know i've missed a step here somewhere so i'm hoping that some kind person can suggest some other things I can try please.
EDIT: added a screenshot of the error box
