The answer to this whole question becomes a retconning mess once we remember that AC2 and Altaïr's Codex clearly show that Ezio's Apple was the one those Templars got from Cyprus, which was the place Altaïr hid his Apple after the events of AC Bloodlines as stated in the page 26 of his codex, where he also mentions the appearing of the prophet (the Templars held that page of the Codex, went to Cyprus to get the Apple, Ezio double assassinates Dante Moro and Silvio Barbarigo but the Templars still manage to sail away, they come back with that apple, Ezio tails them, the prophet apears, you know the rest...)
