How can I gift an app that I already have installed on iphone and/or ipad?

Once the app is purchased, I cannot figure out how to gift it again, since the gift option seems to disappear once the app is purchased?
Any advice would be appreciated - thank you

Hmm, I guess that's something to put in the suggestion box. If you really insist, just mybe you can contact iTS to refund you. Then you can purchase the gift, and then you can buy it for yourself after?

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.

Why I can't gift an app that I already have on my iOs devices?

That's it, I want to know:
Why I can't gift an app thru the iTunes store for an that I already have on my iOs devices?
I have an account fully authorized complete with a credit card, so it is puzzling or a blip in Apples system!

Is it hidden via an app age rating in Settings > General > Restrictions ? If not then you could try a reset and see if it shows after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Disney Mickey Mouse Vol. 1
I just tried this on my iPhone 5 (iOS 6.1.0). I did an iTunes Store search for "Mickey Mouse"...
After the search result:
1. Panned over to "Disney Mickey Mouse Vol. 1"
2. Tapped the icon
3. Tapped on the right-facing arrow next to "Info"
At this point nothing happened no matter how many times I tapped the right-facing arrow next to "Info"
I then:
1. Tapped the Search button at the top left which took me back to the initial search results.
2. Tapped on "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Vol.1" (a totally different title)
3. Tapped on the right-facing arrow next to "Info"
Then I was presented with the options dialog which includes "Gift"
I then went back to:
1. "Disney Mickey Mouse Vol. 1"
2. Tapped the icon
3. Tapped on the right-facing arrow next to "Info"
At this point, I was now presented with the options dialog which includes "Gift"
So in my case, going through the motions with a -different title-, then going back to "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Vol.1" fixed it for me.

HT2736 How can I gift an app that I have already purchased?

I am closing down one of my apple accounts that I no longer use. Can I gift my purchased apps on that account to my other account? They can then be removed from the original account.
Thanks for any help

" Can I gift my purchased apps on that account to my other account? "
No.
All purchases made with that account will always be tied to that account. You will have to authorize your computers for that account and update your apps using that account.

Hi,
If you have not already I would change the Slide size to something that has a 4:3 Ratio.
The Buddy maybe trying to scroll left and right to see the whole slide although this shoud be controlled at you end.
I would open the Connection Doctor during a Chat (iChat's Video menu).
Check that both Bit Rates are relatively stable (there is always some variance.)
Anything over 5% particularly if over 500kbps is likely to be causing problems.
You could try limiting the Bandwidth (iChat Menu > Preferences > Video section) to 500kbps at both ends
It may pay to drop to 200kbps as a test. (you may lose the Side by Side presentation at this speed).

I was gifted an app that I already own. Options?

I was gifted an app that I already have. What are my options? (it's a rather expensive app.)

Did you redeem the code already? If not, I recommend having the purchaser contact iTunes Store Customer Support via http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/gotoiTunesSupport They may be able to arrange a refund for them.

How can I gift an App to someone in a different country? How can I recall the gift I alreadt sent?

I gifted an App from the App store to my cousin. He is India and I am in Kuwait. He now got a message saying that the app can only be used in Kuwait. How can I gift an App to someone in a different country? How can I recall the gift I alreadt sent?
Cheers,

Are you asking about iOS apps? This is the Mac App Store forum, about issues with apps for Macs, not iOS devices. Mac apps cannot be gifted at this moment. I am asking the Hosts to move your question to the iTunes area.

As already provided, if you don't have such in your iTunes library, on your computer, then there is no way to put it back on your phone. Apps are DRM protected, so even if you found a copy somewhere, you wouldn't be able to use it.

How can I deactivate Adobe apps that were installed on a computer that is no longer available?

How can I deactivate Adobe apps that were installed on a computer that is no longer available? I have a Creative Cloud membership, and I want to deactivate a device that is no longer available. I would have thought that there would be an option to deactivate all devices somewhere in My Account, but I can't find it.

Hi acornies,
There is no such option readily available under which you are able to deactivate the product on all the devices . As per the EULA , you are able to install the product on two machines only and once you try to have the product installed on a third machine that would provide you with an error message and an option to deactivate the products on all the previous installation .
So , if the machine that you would be installing the product onto is going to be your third machine , you will be getting an error message that you have reached your activation limit and there would be a button to click on continue to deactivate all the prev installation .
Please let me know if this works for you .
Regards,
Kartikay Sharma

How can I access my App Store now I have changed my apple ID

How can I access my App Store now I have changed to a new apple ID?

That wasn't a very good idea. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another or merge Apple IDs. Not for anyone. All of the content that you got free or bought with the old ID is forever associated with that ID. You cannot redownload or update any of it without the old Apple ID.
