Apps aren't on computer??

I just bought my son's mac mini from him and we have changed everything on the computer, made me the Admin, etc. However, when I go to the apps for the computer, his apps come up, not mine. How do I change that?
Thanks
Cathy

Thanks, I do have a unique app ID from my son.. when I try to log him out, it says that I am logged in but the apps that show are the apps that he had on his phone. I have 2 updates avail, but they are for him. I have tried to log out and back in again, but it shows up as my ID anyway.. Doesn't seem to make any sense. The apps that I have on my Iphone and Ipad are mine, but they are not the same ones that I have on the computer with my ID..?

    I had to restore my hard drive so the apps aren't backed up to my computer any more. When I go to update/backup my phone, it says it will delete all apps. How do I get these apps so they are backed up?

    I'm having a similar problem.  I had previously (over a year ago) purchased 2 episodes of Law &amp; Order.  Then about 2 months ago, I purchased the 3rd season of Sons of Anarchy.  When I downloaded these episodes to my iPad, about a dozen full seasons of various shows popped up, too.  No money was removed from my iTunes account &amp; theses particular shows aren't in my iTunes library on my desktop.  I've tried every which way to delete them from my ipad, but can't.  I went to the Apple store &amp; they suggested I contact expresslane.apple.com for help.  I submitted my problem, via email Friday, as they asked, but have not received any response.  Any suggestions on how to get rid of these "phantoms?".

    The machine could be repaired by a company that does circuit board re-soldering, since it is possible a heat-flex solder break on the main board may have caused either the processor or graphics chips to lose connection and that could manifest itself in a few somewhat documented ways.
    There is an on-board RAM chip that may also have something to do with a kernel panic, if it no longer is functioning correctly; that is the non-removable one soldered on the board you never usually worry about.
    Companies such as powerbookmedic, wegenermedia, and others can take in portable macs of vintage or newer (contact them for details on what they do, and how they accept work orders) for repair and can fix most anything; and have a parts inventory. Modern repair workstations allow the equipped service company to fix complex issues and they do troubleshooting. Sometimes the cost is less than a replacement logic board.
    The links above may help isolate the general cause of a kernel panic. There are other articles in Support database including a deeper look into them.

    Usually the issue is caused by hardware, especially if there is an indication of machine failure in the crash log or other screen image text.
    A working last model MacBook (mid-2010) would be a better 'first mac' to have.
    Hopefully you can sort it out.
    If not, there likely are fair parts in it.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Bug? My events on the iPad iCal app aren't shown in the year view if they are more than two years in the future.

    My events on the iPad iCal app aren't shown in the year view if they are more than two years in the future even though I can see them on the month, week and day view. Any suggestions on how to fix it? I've tried it all. I called the apple support and they checked on their iPads. They all did the same and they couldn't help me. They suggested trying this way. I'd like to be able to plan a few years ahead and the year view would make thing so easy!
    Is this a bug?

    Go to the Home screen and double click the Home button. That will reveal the row of recently used apps at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold on the app in question until it wiggles and displays a minus sign. Tap the minus sign to actually quit the app. Then tap anywhere on the screen above that bottom row to return the screen to normal. Then restart the app and see if it works normally.
    Then reboot your iPad. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the iPad restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • The computer that I had my iphone apps synced to has died and I don't know how to get access to my apps on the new computer. I'm using a Windows pc. I understand that I can only have my apps synced to one computer at a time, but the former pc is dead.

    My HP Touchsmart died the other day. My husband works on computers as a hobby and was able to get me up and running on a Dell laptop in no time. I have an iPhone 4s and had all my apps on itunes on my HP. I understand that you can only have your iPhone apps synced to one computer at a time, but what do you do when the computer containing all your info is in unusable condition? I have tried deauthorizing all the computers associated with my account, that did not work. I had this problem once before and finally ( after much blood sweat and tears ) was able to deauthorize the old computer, but it was in working order. Two of the computers that are listed under the iTunes Wi-Fi Sync setting are no longer in use, the HP had my apps synced to it and the other had everything else except my photos, which are on a third computer that is still in use. Please forgive for information overload but am trying to give all the info that I think could be relevant. Your help would be appreciated so much!
    Sincerely,

  • Someone else bought an app on the store. I had already purchased the app before on my other computer, so I deleted the app on my new computer that the other person purchased. I now want to download the app again on MY account but...........

    Someone else bought an app on the store on my new computer. I had already purchased the app before on my old computer, so I deleted the app on my new computer that the other person purchased. I now want to download the app again through MY account. When I click INSTALL it asks for ID, but it shows up automatically with the other person's ID, so I delete that and enter mine instead. I then click SIGN IN, but then it says "Unknown error", then I click OK, then it says "We could not complete your request. There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (4)". How do I get rid of all info of other people's IDs so I can get the app through my account again?
    The app that I'm trying to download actually might have been a pirated app. But I deleted it, so why is it not letting me get it through my account?
    Please help!
    Thanks

  • I recently received an email stating that someone from Morocco had downloaded an app on a different computer. When I clicked on the link supposedly to change my ID and password. I noticed it asked for all of my info. Is this a scam?

    Dear Itunes customer,
    Your Apple ID, was just used to download Flap Flap from the Mac App Store on a computer or device that had not previously been associated with that Apple ID.
    This download was initiated from Morocco.
    If you initiated this download, you can disregard this email. It was only sent to alert you in case you did not initiate the download yourself.
    If you did not initiate this download, we recommend that you go to http://tinyurl.com/mrx4a2y , to change your password, then see Apple ID: Tips for protecting the security of your account for further assistance.
    Regards,

    Yes, it's a phishing scam to get your account and payment details - if you still have the email then you could forward it to Apple : [email protected]
    Did you fill any details in on the page ? If you entered your password then you should change it immediately e.g by logging into it by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store on your iPad, via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes, or via http://appleid.apple.com

    I cannot for the life of me figure this out.

    What you need to do is connect your phone to iTunes but do not click sync.  Go to File at the top and click transfer purchases from phone, that'll put all your apps into iTunes.  When it's done transferring, locate your phone on the sidebar and click it.  Then find the apps option above the picture of your iphone, you can select which apps you want or don't want on your phone.  After selecting your apps then you can sync.  Once you do this you should never have your problem anymore.

  • I need to move my apps, etc from one computer to another but I can't? Help!

    I recently upgraded my phone from an iphone 3gs to and iphone 4s.
    At the same time I thought it was the right time to move my itunes from my old laptop (which has no wireless) to a new laptop with wireless so it would be easier to up and download music, etc.
    So I had to first sync my Iphone 3gs on my old computer to back everything up but now i have my new phone I can't see any of the apps on my new computer - I tried the homeshare option but all I can see is the music.. I cannot see anything else.
    I wouldn't mind just starting over but I don't see why I should pay for some apps twice!
    I would really appreciate some help from someone because also what has happened now is the stupid adapter they give you to transfer your info from your iphone 3 to your iphone 4 has damaged my ihpone 3 and it no longer reads my sim card!
    Anyone got any tips?
    thanks
    Theresa

    Installing iTunes and signing in to your account does not move your library to a new computer!
    The easiest way to move your library between machines is to backup your library to an external drive, then restore that backup to the new machine.
    See this User Tip for a suitable backup tool. As long as all the media is inside the iTunes Media folder which in turn is inside the main iTunes folder then the library can be restored to any location with enough room. If the media has been split out into one or more alternate locations then to successfully restore the library all the media must be restored to identical paths to those it was backed up from. You can use the same tool to restore the library to the new machine.
    After confirming that your library is working properly on your new machine you should deauthorize the old one if you no longer need to access protected content on it.

  • How do I get my apps back on my computer

    How do I get my apps that I have paid for back on my computer? I had to get my computer fixed, now my apps are gone, I would like to have them back but I dont want to repay for them?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    If you purchased the apps on the App Store, you can download them for free as many times as you want on all your computers.
    To install the apps again on your computer, open App Store, go to Purchases tab and install all the apps you want
