HT5188 Can I use a 'gifted' app code with AC?

I have an unused redemption code for an app that was gifted to me (the code was sent to me by a school administrator). Can I manually add this to Apple Configurator so that I can manage this app on our school iPads? I don't believe it was purchased through VPP, so it's not on a spread sheet that I can import to AC. It's a very expensive communication device app, so I need to be able to move the app between iPads as our students move through the school system. Thanks.

By default, whenever you connect a supervised device to Apple Configurator, any apps which were installed on that device by a user will be deleted.
With Apple Configurator v1.1 or later, you can change this setting in Preferences, under the Apple Configurator menu. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5203
So, if you install the app as a "user" using whatever apple id you would normally use to install a standalone app, you can change the preferences setting in .1.1.  You would not use Configurator to install the app but add it manually  to the device being used by the student or group of students in question.  Given that you only have one code you could not legally place it on multiple devices anyway so there is no point in  loading it through Configurator.

  • Can I use Apple Volume Purchasing Codes with Apple Profile Manager?

    I am using Apple Profile Manager (on OS X 10.8) to manage some iOS devices.  I would like to be able to push apps to users using Profile Manager, however, I cannot seem to find a way to import an Apple Volume Purchasing Program redemption code spreadsheet.  Basically, I am looking for a way to deploy apps to the devices without the users having to purchase them using their own Apple ID's.  I've done some research, and I have determined that this funcationality seems to be included in Apple Configurator.  I am wondering if I can do the same thing in Profile Manager.  I would rather not have to change my MDM solution, if at all possible.  Thanks in advance, I appreciate it.

    Hey JTShelatz,
    just push you Apps with Profileservice. But just the amount of purchased licences .
    Thats how I understood Apples VPP deployment strategy.

  • How can I use a gift card on App Store?

    How can I use a gift card on App Store?

    If it's an iTunes gift card, as opposed to an Apple Store gift card (which can only be used in Apple stores and the Apple online store), then you can redeem it onto your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1574
    And as long as you are buying content for yourself (you can't use an account's balance for gifting content) then your balance should be automatically used for your purchases : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5582
    When making purchases, content credits are used first, followed by Gift Certificate, iTunes Card, or Allowance Account credits; your credit card or PayPal account is then charged for any remaining balance.

  • HT2737 Can you use itunes gift cards in the stores to buy products

    Can you use itunes gift cards in the stores to buy products

    No, they can only be used in the iTunes store, app store, ibookstore and the Mac App Store - they can't be used in Apple stores (inlcuding the online Apple stores).

  • HT201209 Can I use iTunes gift cards for iBooks?

    Can I use iTunes gift cards for iBooks?  How?

    Yes, I've used them to buy from the ibookstore, app store, iTunes and the Mac App Store. They can be used in the ibookstore in the iBooks app (or via your computer's iTunes) in the same way as you use your account's balance to buy music or apps - so you first need to redeem a gift card so that it gets added to your account, and you can then buy things from the stores with it.

    How can I use my gift card to purchase? It says i already redeemed it but I haven't used the money in it.

    Does any balance show on your account ? My account's balance shows at the top left of the store's page on my computer's iTunes, and by logging in to view my account via the Store > View Account menu option. On my iOS devices it shows at the bottom of, for example, the Featured tab in the App Store app under my account id (or you can view your account via Settings > iTunes & App Store and it should show on the screen that you are taken to).
    You can check your account's purchase history via your computer's iTunes : See your purchase history in the iTunes Store
    If this is the first time that you've tried to download anything from the store, then unless you followed the instructions on this page when creating your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
    If you are getting a message to review your account then you could see if this post by mountaingoatgirl lets you do so without needing to enter credit card details : https://discussions.apple.com/message/24303054#24303054

  • HT1222 Can you use the same authorization code for QT Pro on two computers? Or do you have to buy a code for each computer

    I have two computers a laptop and my Video Editing computer can I use the same activation code on both?

    An Apple ID is a user name you use for everything you do with Apple. Creating an account for an Apple service, such as the iTunes Store or the App Store, creates an Apple ID. Apple ID allows you to access other Apple services.   So you can use the same Apple ID for up to 10 Macs associated with it.
    To create an Apple ID you need to enter  your full name and your primary email address as your Apple ID. This will be used as the contact email address for your account.

  • IPhone 4 I can't use my Safari app. Every time I try to open it, the LAST app that I had used (and closed out of) opens instead of Safari. Any ideas? Thanks!

    Sorry! I didn't realize that a message window opened up, so am not sure if my entire question showed up. I can't use my Safari app at all. Every time I try to open it, the app I used (and closed) previously opens instead. It doesn't matter what app it is, it is just the previous app used. Settings: 4.2.6 (8E200). Model MC676LL.  Please help...Thanks!

    Thanks Meg,
    I had tried that, but tried it again. No luck...this is so frustrating! Can anyone help? I tried calling Tech Support but I am one month over the "Phone Support" warranty even though I pay monthly for a continued warranty. GRRRR Any ideas?? Thanks!

  • I am a US citizen in school in Montreal and I was given a US Apple Store gift card. How can I buy the new iPad using my gift card and with a school discount?

    I am a grad student from NYC and at a university in Montreal. I was given a 500$ gift card as a gift to put towards a new ipad. BUT, I apparently cannot use the US gift card in Canada. So, what do I do? I have no time to head back to NYC to get it. I want to order it, but not sure they will ship to montreal...? And was thinking of sending it back to my parents and then have them buy it and mail it to me, but I I think them having to pay tax on this is ridiculous. On top of that, I should be able to garner the ed discount but I dont think the US recognizes Canadian schools in their system and visa versa. SO if I do buy it in the US, I can use my gift card but I can't get the discount. Or if I buy it here in MTL, I can get the discount but I cannot use the gift card..
    Can anyone suggest a solution? all bright ideas welcome.

    You can only use a gift card in the country it was issued in - no way around that as the Apple Store does NOT offer currency exchange with gift cards.
    Nor can you order from the USA online store and ship to any address outside of the USA - again, no way around that as the online stores do NOT ship internationally.
    You could send the gift card back to someone in the USA, to use to purchase your item for you, and then once they receive it, they could ship it to you.  Canada customs will hold it until they collect any import fees and taxes levied on imported consumer electronics though.
    Either that or buy it in Canada with the discount, and use the card later when you get home again.

    Since Google has not added watch support to the gmail app, you don't. You should be able to get notifications, but at this time, there is no gmail app for the watch.
