Update notices never appear in iTunes/Mac for free-with-iPhone 5s apps: Numbers, Pages, or Keynote
When I bought my iPhone 5s, I was given the opportunity to get Numbers, Pages, and Keynote for free. Visiting the App Store on my phone, I downloaded each one of them.
I usually use iTunes for the Mac to manage my iPhone, so the apps were available for downloading within iTunes/Mac after I had downloaded them on my iPhone.
But unlike all of my other apps, I've never gotten a notice within iTunes/Mac that there is an updated version of these three apps. On my iPhone, they show up in the badge and within the app in the "Updates" list. But on iTunes for the Mac, I never see a notice within the Apps section (not even the "Updates" tab of that section, which only lists apps with available updates). All of my other apps that I've puchased or gotten for free appear in the "Updates" tab when a new version is available.
I prefer to do manual app updates on my phone, and I usually use iTunes on the Mac to download updates. But since I rarely look at the App Store app on my iPhone, and never see the update notices appear in iTunes for the Mac.
Please note that I have updated all of the things I mention above: OS X (latest version of Mavericks), iTunes (11.1.4), iOS (7.0.4), and the Numbers, Pages, and Keynote apps. The problem is that the updates for the three iOS apps never appear in iTunes for Mac, unless I navigate to the app page and manually download it.
I'm not sure how to communicate this bug to Apple, if it's something they need to fix; or how to resolve it myself, if it's something I have control over.
Does anyone have an idea?
oh... then I understood wrong. thanks for the hint. Would be great, when apple would change that... cause Steve said, from now... the pc/mac is just another device in the cloud...
that would be believable...

How do you change the format?

Thankyou ('v')On October 22, 2013, Apple announced that its Pages, Numbers, and Keynote apps are available free with every qualifying new Mac. If you purchased a qualifying Mac on or after October 1, 2013, that did not include Pages, Numbers, and Keynote, you can download them free by following the steps below.

I have mac osx 10.6.8 and I keep getting update notices that do nothing, just search for update server. Happens every day. What can you or I do to fix this? Other people I work with and use macs have the same issue.
If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 6.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

HT3702 Itunes charged for free app download (Update).
Itunes charged for free app download (Update). No clue why this happened. Can anyone tell me what could be the problem?
If you mean the temporary store holding charge, as described on the page that you posted from, then that is only temporary, it should disappear off your account within a few days or so.
That 'charge' is made each time that you change your card details to check that the card details are correct and valid and that it's registered to exactly the same name and address as on your iTunes account.
If you mean a 'proper' charge, and it appears on your purchase history and on your credit card, then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : 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 -
Updates of Apps from iTunes 11 for iPad and iPhone 5
Since updating to version 11 of iTunes both my iPad and iPhone 5 cannot get updates for apps. My iPad is showing that there are 3 updates available but when I try to connect I get the error message "Cannot connect to iTunes Store". Other links such as top charts, genius and purchased are all available. Synching the iPad has had no effect. Has anyone any ideas? Many thanks for any help.
If you are attempting to update directly on the iOS device, there have been a number of issues reported around this. Appears to be a server issue and is effecting some, but not all user. Some things to try:
Wait it out a little bit while Apple addresses the server issues
Try downloading any available free app. Once the download is complete, try the updates again.
Try connecting from another WiFi network
Sign out of your apple ID (Setting app, iTunes & App store) and sign back in
Try a rest: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the iPad back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
You might want to start with the reset. May not help, but won't hurt. -
I bought a Macbook pro with Mountain Lion. Can I install Mountain Lion on my other mac for free? How do I do that? Thanks!
On the bright side, it's only $20.
And I would certainly like to have the ownership (and even a copy of the installer on my archive drive), "just in case."
Here are some questions -- which I cannot test because it's not my situation:
Has anyone acquired a pre-owned Mac with Mountain Lion installed but which shipped with an earlier OS version? For those in that circumstance:
Have you been able to apply Mountain Lion update(s)?
How about reinstall ML with Recovery HD?
After either updating or reinstalling, does ML appear in Purchases in App Store?

My daughter has been using my iTunes account to buy music and apps. I now want to set up a separate iTunes account for her, with a different login. How can we transfer the music and apps she has already bought to her new iTunes account?
Hello, thank you for your prompt answer. I did have an idea that Home sharing might be the answer but could not quite figure out how to do it. I have enabled home sharing in my iTunes account, put in username and password, clicked on creat etc. But the homs sharing icon doew not appear in the left side of iTunes. So I got stuck. Any further ideas?

I did not know my kids had set up an Itunes account for me with one user name and password. then i got an i phone and set it up with a different email address and new password. how can i get my accounts to merge so i can have all of my music on my iphone
Quote: "You cannot merge two or more Apple IDs into a single one. You can, however, use one Apple ID for iCloud services and another Apple ID for store purchases (including iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match). See “Using one Apple ID for iCloud and a different Apple ID for Store Purchases” above for details." See also Apple ID & iCloud FAQ: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4895?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
You can set up your iCloud account on your iOS device under: "Settings > iCloud" and a other account for store purchases under "Settings > iTunes & App Stores". Unfortunately merging accounts is not possible but you could transfer all of your music manually via iTunes from your Mac or PC. -
Hi Mac,
Does the 10.9.2 update fix the issue on 2011 macs where projectors with HDMI are not recognized via thunderbolt adapter?
Thanks in advance,
Ricardo ArguellesSordidloam wrote:
So to be clear, this issue occurs on any input with the Denon Receiver. Occurs from both HDMI out and MiniDisplay Port out. Goes away when we reinstall the OS and update it to 10.9.2. Comes back as soon as we update to 10.9.3.
Cheers

Have you been able to use the Mac Mini directly attached to the plasma/LCD/projector with out going through the Denon AVR? Even with 10.9.3 installed?
I have a Pioneer AVR and I have the Mac attached via a HDMI to HDMI and all is working for me. Can your Denon do some upscaling? Some AVR, like my VSX-53 can change the scaling of the input video. Meaning if I still had my Apple TV 2 which outputs 720P only, can be upscaled in my AVR to 1080i or 1080P or even 24fps. Heck, I could even plug in an old style Red, White, Yellow cable and upscale it to 1080P and output it HDMI.
I am wondering if your Denon is able to do that and it might be set wrong. Check the owners manual for such settings. Even the plasma/LCD/project could be doing the upscaling too. So check that too.
