Interpolation in time-domain vs frequnecy domain

Hello, could you tell me or explain where is the difference between fft and ifft code when I use fft(x, n) with zero-padding to index n to interpolate frequency domain, but to interpolate time-domain I have to use ifft(ifftshift(padarray((fftshift(X)), [0 n/2]))) (with n/2 zeros on both sides of vector) to get right results? Why ifft(X, n) is not working? Thanks for your answers.

You don't have to. You don't have to use padarray and fftshift at all. Just doing a round trip of fft() and ifft() should get you the original vector x. Shifting is only needed if you want to visualize the zero frequency at the middle of your vector instead of at the first element. If you want, you could keep a separate copy, X_shifted, just for display but do all your computations on the original X.
