'Gift this app' - no show

Purchased an app under 'Gift this app'. Receipt rec'd but recipient never received the app. Any troubleshooting direction?

I also had the problem of the "Gift this app" link missing.  This is on a PC.  I was able to gift apps using an iPad logged in to the same iTunes account but the performance was terrible.  I have been administering iPads for a company for a couple of years now.  I have set up over two dozen over that time and this is the worst it has been as far as getting apps onto the device goes.

  • Gift this App is Missing

    Running iTunes 11.0.2 on a Mac, the option to "Gift This App" is missing for apps that I've purchased.  It appears properly for apps that I haven't purchased.
    Has anyone else run into this bug?  Is there a workaround?  How can I gift an app to someone?

  • Gift this App issue

    I used the "Gift this App" option from within the app store, on iPhone via wi-fi, so that I could send my girlfriend Plants vs Zombies, but unfortunately I entered her email address wrongly (.com instead of .co.uk) so obviously its not been redeemed.
    Anyone got any idea how I can correct the email address so it goes to the right person? Or will it expire anyway if it's not redeemed within a certain time?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    If you haven't already contacted iTunes Support then you can do so via this link and ask them why the message is appearing (we are fellow users here on these forums, we won't know why) : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

  • Gift this app, person did not get it

    i used gift this app and the person did not receive an e-mail for the app, but i got charged for it. anyone know why? i double checked the email address

    When I send them they arrive in seconds.
    Ask the recipient to check Mail rules and filtering, the verification mail may be going to a junk folder or even being deleted altogether.
    Also see if you are able to resend the email by following these steps.
    If the problem persists, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

  • Gift This APP-but already owns?

    I want to gift an app to a friend, but I'm not sure if she already owns it. It's obviously null to ask her first.
    So what happens to the purchase if she does already have the app?

    She'll have a duplicate purchase. The iTunes Store cannot check to see if she already owns that app before you send the gift, and they don't give refunds. So the best route, though I understand it may spoil a surprise, is to find out if she has the app already before you give the gift.
    Regards.

  • "Gift this App" question?

    If you gift an app can the receiver write a review in iTunes?

    I don't think so. The gift is being purchased from your Apple ID.

  • Gift this App to Multiple Emails

    Is there a way to Gift an App to multiple Emails without doing it one by one?
    Please DISREGARD the question. I found my answer

    You cannot gift to another country at all.

  • Gift This App

    If you buy and app, it goes into your history. If you gift it, do you have to buy it again?

    Yes.  It's a second copy of the application for someone else so it is a separate transaction.

  • Gift this app not received

    Hi guys and gals,
    My friend gift whatsapp to me.

    Would be glad for any help in advance. Thank you!

  • HT2736 Is it not possible to 'gift' an app you've already bought?

    I own Monopoly for iPad and was trying to gift it to my dad for his new iPad but that link option doesn't show up in iTunes ... the GIFT link shows up fine on apps I haven't already bought for myself ...

    That is an interesting question...there appears to be no way to gift an app you've already purchased...maybe to avoid confusion about people thinking they can gift things they have purchased for free? There was a lengthy discussion about a similar issue on iOS devices here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4033741
    A workaround might be to log out of your Apple ID, then navigate to the app in iTunes, click the 'Gift This App' button and then sign in when prompted.

  • How can I gift an app that I already purchased?

    I'm trying to gift an app that I have already purchased for myself.  But I do not see a way to doing so.  Since I have already purchased the app, when I am in the Appstore it just shows "Install" instead of the price of the app. 
    Thanks

    Gifting an app needs to be done prior to purchase.
    You can gift an app using an iPad, iPod Touch, or iPhone. Launch the App Store and find the app you want to send as a gift. Once you have found the app and are viewing all of the details, scroll down to the bottom. There you will find a Gift This App button. Tap on it.

    You will be provided with a summary of the app; press Next after you have confirmed it is the app you would like to send.

    Enter your name followed by the recipient's name and e-mail address. You can also scroll down and enter a note to be sent with the app if you'd like. Press Next when you're done.

    On the last screen you will see an order summary. Verify that the name, e-mail address, and app are all correct. Once you are satisfied, tap on Buy Gift. The recipient will then be sent an e-mail to alert him or her of your gift.

  • HT2736 Gifting an app already downloaded

    How can I gift an app that I have already downloaded? The usual purchase button for the app is greyed out, shows 'Downloaded' and does not offer the gift this app option. Thanks for any help or suggestions.

    Try logging out of your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > Sign Out menu option and (without signing back in) then see if the 'gift this app' option appears on that app, and if you can then gift it (you should be prompted to sign back in when you select 'gift') - I have the same 'feature' on my Mac's iTunes.

  • How can I "gift" an app to multiple people via email?

    I'm trying to figure out the best way to be able to send our nonprofit members our new iTunes app. I saw a "gift this app" button, but now I can't find it again. Is there a way to pre-purchase an app and email it to people? Thanks, in advance, for any recommendations!

    Next to the big button labeled with the price and the word "buy", there is a pop-up list. The first option is Gift This App.

  • Can anyone explain the process of gifting an app?

    Can anyone explain what happens when you gift an app?  I tried to gift "Where's My Water" to my son.  How does he retrieve the gift? He tried to go to the App Store and download it (I thought it might already be marked "Purchased") but it wasn't.  Does he get an e-mail with a retrieval code?  His e-mail is set up to only get mail from certain people.  What address would we need to add to his address book so the e-mail will go through?  How do I get the confirmation resent to him?
    Thanks!
    Lynne

    I used the "gift this app" button, but what happens after that?  Does the person I sent the gift to get an e-mail or some kind of notification?  My son's e-mail only lets through mail from certain people (and they don't tell you to make sure the person can get mail from [email protected] so they can get a verification).  Do you know what address the verification comes from?

  • App not showing up in My World

    Greetings,
    I downloaded the Yellow Pages app directly from their mobile web site, and now the app isn't showing up in My World. Is there any way of getting this app to show up in My World, or do I have to delete it, and then download it again through App World?

    Nope...you've got it right. If you log into AppWorld/BBID on a different BB, but use those existing credentials, the BB that is registered to AppWorld will shift to the new BB you are then logging in from, and all records in AW will shift to the new BB as well.
