Free for a Day apps - Legal to use in Configurator?

Today, several paid apps we have our eyes on to purchase for use on our classroom iPads through the VPP program are available free for the day, so I downloaded them and installed them in Apple Configurator, where they indeed show up as being free in the list of apps and can be installed on iDevices without problems.
We are concerned that somehow this is not legal to do, but I cannot find any verbiage indicating this illegality. I'm assuming that if the app is free, it is truly free, no matter how and where we use it, as we use many free apps in Configurator.
Using the same logic, if I paid for 10 copies of ComicLife through VPP yesterday, but today ComicLife is free, I could not ask for a refund.
Does anybody have any definitive information?

Hi Derek,
Apple Configurator checks to see if the app is free at the moment you import the app into Apple Configurator. If a free app is imported and Apple Configurator finds that it is no longer free, you will be required to import VPP app codes for it. If the app is still free as you import it then it stays free forever on that particular computer. Each computer does this check independently.
Hope this answers your question!

  • Can I have 2 iPhones registered on the free find my iPhone app that I use on my iPad?

    My husband and I both own an IPhone 4.  I just downloaded the free Find my IPhone app on my IPad.   Can I register both our iPhones on this app to be able to locate either one?  If so, how?  Btw- we have separate Apple accounts.

    Your husband needs to register his iPhone with the Find My iPhone service. If he doesn't have a MobileMe account, he needs to register his iPhone with his Apple ID.
    http://www.apple.com/iphone/find-my-iphone-setup/
    The Find My iPhone app on my iPhone requires logging in with the Apple ID used to register an iPad or iPhone with the service. If the Apple ID has more than one device registered, then both should turn up.

  • How can I distribute the free version of Numbers, Keynote, and Pages using Apple Configurator

    I am trying to use Apple Configurator to mamnge a set of classroom iPads.  I have figured out how to purchase apps via the VPP account and distribute them, but I can't figure out how to distribute the free versions of Pages, Numbers, and Keynote.  When I try downloading these apps on the Mac running Configurator, they show up as a paid version.  Currently, I have to disable the option in Configurator that removes non-mamanged apps and then install the apps manually on each iPad.  Does anyone have a better option than this.  My hope was to be able to completely manage the iPads by simply pugging them into the Mac.

    The apps is not only for iPhone 5c and 5s. its for all apple products that are purchased with iOS 7. I don't believe if you already have the product then update it to iOS 7 that the apps will be free. I believe that you have to purchase the product on or after the 18th since iOS 7 will already be on the products.
    Edit...All compatible iOS 7 products activated on or after September 1st, 2013 will recieve the iWork apps for free. So yes he/she will recieve the apps

  • Unicode/glyph/font advice needed for porting WinForms app to Macintosh using AIR

    I've written an application in WinForms/.NET that I'd like to port to the Macintosh platform. I have never developed for the Mac but it seems as though AIR might be a good choice. I'm totally new to AIR. Some advice and info would be much appreciated!
    Can an app be developed in AIR on a PC running Windows and then later be deployed transparently on a Macintosh? Or do I need to be developing on a Mac?
    The app is a search interface for use against text-bases comprised of texts composed in ancient European languages. I pre-index the text-base and store it in SQLite as a fully-normalized (1NF) set of relations:  TITLES, WORDS, WORDOCCURRENCES.  So the app is really nothing more than a (query-only) database application with some specialized glyph-rendering requirements.
    In the WinForms app, I used a custom third-party edit control with  extensive support for the RTF specification, in combination with some third-party fonts that contain the necessary glyphs for rendering the Unicode characters corresponding to RUNES and to some abbreviations found in medieval manuscripts. BTW, these special non-ASCII characters are represented in the database not as unicode codepoints but as entities that can be represented in standard ASCII (e.g. "þ"   ); when rendered to screen, the correct glyph has to be substituted when the Unicode codepoint for the entity supplied -- in this example the codepoint would be [U+00DE] and a thorn glyph  ( Þ) should be rendered.
    Since it might not be possible to find a single omnibus Unicode font that contains a glyph for every codepoint I need to render (what are the most glyph-rich freeware Unicode fonts for Macintosh, btw?)  the text widget must let the programmer "wrap" a Unicode character or series of Unicode characters in whatever font may be required at that point in the text. Is there a rich-text widget for AIR that can do this?  A widget that can render HTML and supports CSS stylesheets would be ideal (inline-CSS-only would be OK too). If the widget had CSS stylesheet support, the string of Unicode codepoints could be wrapped with a <span class='rune'>.....</span> and  the font-name for the .rune class could be specified in the CSS stylesheet.
    Thanks very much if you've taken the time to read through this tedious stuff !

    Flash Professional started as an animation tool and was expanded with a programming language that became ActionScript (now ActionScript 3.0). Content creators began using Flash to develop applications rather than just animation, so a lot of developer-centric and application-centric functionality was added to Flash, including pre-built user interface components (written in ActionScript). All that functionality and those components are still available in Flash Pro today. However, many developers who came from a traditional programming background had trouble getting into Flash Pro because it is really an animation design tool -- so it uses a timeline, layers, visual drawing canvas, and it required some figuring out to learn how to structure an application in that type of tool.
    In response to this, Macromedia (now Adobe of course) created Flex. Flex uses ActionScript just like Flash Pro. Flex also includes numerous user interface controls, written in ActionScript. Flex also adds advanced, flexible layout control and many utilities for common programming tasks like loading data from or sending data to a server, formatting values, validating user input, and more. With Flex, you can define your user interface using an XML markup language (MXML); the compiler then turns the MXML into ActionScript code before turning it into your compiled application. As far as tooling, an eclipse-based IDE called Flex Builder was created that gives you a code editor, a workable but not designer-oriented design view, and other developer tools like debugging and profiling. (Note that Flex Builder has been renamed to Flash Builder for the next release, which is currently in public beta.)
    So to generalize, Flash Pro favors a more visual design and animation type of working style, whereas Flex favors a more text-based, code-centric working style. (But that's just a generalization -- many people, especially people who "grew up" with Flash before Flex, still prefer Flash Pro even though they're heavy coders.)
    Also, if you want to write everything in code with no pre-drawn visuals (i.e. Flash Pro) and without using MXML or Flex components, you can create your application entirely in ActionScript code. Flex Builder supports ActionScript-only projects for that purpose.
    Here are a few links for getting started with Flex, which I would personally recommend if you haven't used either one and you're building something that's more "application" focused rather than media or animation focused:
    Flex "Quick Starts" -- short articles focused on specific tasks in Flex
    Flex "Getting Started Experience" -- designed as a set of training courses, intended to take 12+ hours to complete (but you can skip around of course)
    "Flex in a week" video training -- a free 5-day video tutorial series on Flex
    Flex Developer Center "Learning Paths"
    As a side note, the link you included actually goes to the JavaScript version of the documentation, which is what you would want if you are going to use HTML/Ajax to build your app. However, if you're wanting to use Flex you would want to use the Flex version of the documentation:
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/langref/mx/controls/HTML.html
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/langref/flash/html/HTMLLoader.html
    And if you're wanting to use Flash, you can use the Flash Pro version of the documentation:
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AS3LCR/Flash_10.0/flash/html/HTMLLoader.html
    Yes, it's somewhat confusing and overwhelming. We're definitely working on improving things in that regard.

  • Looking for remote control App (iPhone) to use with iMovie

    I just got a Macbook Air, and my infrared Apple remote control doesn't work with it.
    I wanted to be able to do presentations (in this case using iMovie) and be able to have a remote so that I could pause, go back, fast forward, i.e. the usual things a remote does.
    There probably is a good App that I can install on my iPhone that will let me use my iPhone as a remote control, but I don't know which one. Any suggestions????  Ideally, it would be a bluetooth program (although Wi-Fi would work too) that would also work with other programs, like Keynote.
    Thanks!
    Dan

    Well, I don't know much about this, but if you need to control the actual system in some way, you are going to need to use JNI (Java Native Interface), which is essentially embedding C/C++ code in your java app, which doesn't lend well to platform-independence. I too develop on a Mac, and there is a mailing list for Java related issues on the Mac. You can check it out at: http://developer.apple.com/java/
    If you sign up for ADC (Apple Developer Connection, it's free), you can have access to these mailing lists. They've been quite helpful to me in the past. I don't mean to slam the forums here, but you are looking for a Mac specific solution, and you'd probably get more specific information on this mailing list. Hope this helps!!

  • OT Free for 1 day only - Icon Constructor

    I almost did not download this- but I am glad I did. It is actually pretty neat! Note the software on this site is changed every 24 hours and can only be activated for that period.

    Don,
    Thanks for posting this. My old software didn't survive the move in '03 from 98 to XP so this will come in handy and the price is right. I like to replace some of the Folder icons in Favorites and Windows Explorer with something more descriptive so I can scroll through quickly and still spot them.

  • My Mail has frozen - can access my hotmail through Safari but Mail now has a blank rectangle on the screen and the inbox underneath it has not updated for 2 days

    Mail giving problems. Small white rectangular box comes up on screen and inbox underneath has not updated for 2 days.
    I can use Safari to get new messages but, since getting this laptop, when I go to Hotmail via Safari old messages self delete every so often, whereas via Mail messages stay in the inbox unless I actually delete them. Any suggestions?

    Here is a photo of what I see when I tap on the mail icon to open it. It stays there for a second or two and then goes dark. Then I actually have to put my iPad into sleep mode in order to use it again. The app will NOT close no matter what I do, just shutting it down or put it in sleep and then restart  it.
    here is when I tap the mail icon. It looks like an empty page but you will see the format of the mail page. Next photo is what is see after a second. And the last photo is what I see before the iPad locks up or Les blank. I hope this makes things clearer as to what the problem is. Thanks for your help, hope this helps! Diane May.

  • Looking for a certain app.  can you help...

    I am going flying in a little cessna tomorrow. This will be my 2nd lesson. The instructor is happy for me to have my iphone on and it doesn't have to be in flight mode.
    What this means is I can use the GPS to track the flight. I am looking for a particular app that will use the GPS and plot my track and allow me to place this over a google map or even google earth to show exactly where I have flown.
    I have used a similar app for running (RunKeeper) and also another called iTrial but didn't like that one much.
    Is there any you can recommend?
    Thanks
    Mark

    If you go to the iTunes App store and look in the Navigation category there are many apps related specifically to flying.
    For what you specify, GPS Recorder might be the one to check out. I've not used it, though, so YMMV.

  • Need opinions/links/etc... regarding Oracle security for a custom app

    Okay it's an open ended question but I need some help figuring out what we should be doing.
    We have an old legacy Sybase system written in Powerbuilder which they want to move to a web app. Great! That means we get new toys. Problem, it's a standalone system now being merged into a web system. We're looking at Oracle 10.2 and App Server to run everything. We're not sure about reporting yet.
    Here's my question. What/how is everyone using for user account security? I'll have say 5000 users at different locations in the world. Let's say you have sites A, B and C. I'll ultimately need to be able to allow Mr. Smith at Site A to create info which nobody at site B or C is allowed to see. But then Mr. Smith's manager should be allowed to see all the work done by his people so he technically has visibility to everything at site A regardless if he created it or not. The company VP & Presidents need to see everything from sites A, B and C. (Also possibly allow someone to 'grant' access to another person's info. ie - someone at site A allowing someone at site B to view their info by some interface setting)
    Now there's a second level of sensitivity. Say unclassified, classified and top secret. Each employee, regardless of where they sit in the heirarchy tree above, can only see documents up to their sensitivity level. So someone with classified access can see unclassified and classified items, but not top secret.
    Now I've looked at Oracle row level security and it looks like exactly what I'll need but that means that every user, needs to be a database user? I've never worked with something like that. The only other way I'm aware of doing this, would be have the application developers code all the checks into the system based on user info. That leaves lots of maintenance headaches and we will need a reporting tool so then we have to recreate all that info on the report side as well. (which is actually the way the current standalone system works. One main user to do the connections, then we have a "user table" to check rights, password & so forth).
    Is it unheard of to create a custom app (that's the key, there is no COTS for this), then have all the user accounts be stored as actual Oracle users? For a web app, I'm used to a single user being the "pass through" for any connections to the database then pass that back to the user. Are there any considerations or tricks to integrate Oracle user creation into the system or it's as simple as have the app run the correct sql from an account with the correct permissions?
    How else can this be done or how else is everyone doing it? Any links to info would be great and most appreciated. Stories and how you did it type of info is also real good!
    Thanks.

    Pierre,
    That helped a lot. I ended up ordering one of Tom's recommended books on security. I also was able to find a few examples (once I figured what I needed to be looking for) that got me up and running with a test instance to play with.
    Thank you very much!

  • Is it possible to get MS Office free for mac?

    It is possible to get MS Office free for Mac?

    Not legally. And in all honesty, people take a pretty dim view on this forum of those that want something for nothing. Not judging, just saying.
    If you want a free production suite (similar to Office, that opens .docx and .xlsx files, etc) then take a look at Openoffice, which is an open-source solution.

  • J2ME dev tools for simple demo apps

    Hello community,
    I 've been using Java for a long time and recently got a project involving j2me. Its mostly apps for demo purposes, therefore there is not a lot of logic/network traffic involved. For example, one app is a bunch of screens guiding the user throught different text blobs and pictures. It is very similar in structure to browsable content, with links and forms, just like a very simple HTML site.
    I have always used netbeans for developing java, and it seems that it has some neat tricks for create ME apps.You can use a nice drag and drop design mode that also auto-gens code. But I have found a tool like http://www.cascadamobile.com/ , in which you write simple HTML/js pages that link to each other and then this thing will generate the j2me code from that. That would be exactly what I would need for my purpose, save for the fact that the product is Ad-supported, so its a no-go.
    Maybe I could make a j2me app as a WML-browsable content so that I would just have to compose the wml and then the app would just "browse" them from the phone's memory?
    In any case, the question is, are there any fast tools for making simple (mostly demo) apps, in a j2me environment?
    Thank you.

    RealBasic, Metrowerks Codewarrior, you might find some references on http://developer.apple.com/ and one software vendor I know still makes software for it is http://www.lemkesoft.com/
    And they might be able to tell you what tools they use.

  • New Computer for Mothers Day, will this work?

    I think I have this figured out but I want to see if you all see any problems that I might run into.
    I will be purchasing a new laptop computer for my wife for Mothers Day, it will be using Vista. Her current laptop has XP. I believe she has about 20 gigs of music/video that she has purchased from ITunes and a tad bit she has copied from a few cds. I have done the search function and printed everyting "I think" I need to transfer over but the different O/S part concerns me greatly.
    First of all, I had planned on just using her 60 gig Ipod to transfer everything but I also have a portable hard drive that might make it easier. Everything is stored in the default ITunes directory, so I was going to copy the entire folder from her current laptop to my portable hard drive. Then, once we get the new laptop up and running I had planned on downloading and installing the newest version of ITunes on to it and then copy the ITunes folder from the portable drive onto the new Vista based laptop....this is where I'm slightly concerned! Will the difference of Operating Systems cause any issues?
    Lastely, if all goes well as stated above, I have no reason to leave the music/videos on the old laptop so I will deauthorize that computer and authorized the new one, or atleast I think that is a good idea.
    Is there anything I need to do with the Ipod itself during this process or should everything go well? My biggest concern is using Vista, I have heard nothing but problems but unless I order a computer from someone like Dell and choose XP that is really my only option...
    All suggestions are welcome.
    Thanks in advance!!

    Everything is stored in the default ITunes directory, so I was going to copy the entire folder from her current laptop to my portable hard drive
    To elaborate, make sure you copy the entire \My Docuemnts\My Music\ iTunes folder, not only the iTunes music folder.
    In Vista, the iTunes folder is installed in Music (not My Music).
    Simply replace this folder with the one you copy from XP to the external.

  • 'periods' show for every day in calendar??

    I got Outlook 2007 and successfully synced my calendar. However, on my iPhone there is now a 'period' on every day, even when there is nothing scheduled for that day. I'm using Vista Home Premium and the calendar looks fine on my pc. Any ideas how to remove all the 'period(s)' from my iPhone calendar??

    The problem is with recurring dates. On your calendar (iPhone)click the left arrow (you can hold it down) and find the 1st date that does not have a dot (it could be many years in the past, mine was back on 2003). Then, edit the end date to be the same as the start date (the display shows the end date before the start date). Hope this helps
