After gifting an app for someone, do you need to buy the app again for yourself?

I want to gift an app for a friend. Do I need to buy the app again if I ever decide wanting it?

I believe so, just like when you gift a book, a painting, etc.

We have two Mac laptops, does anybody know if you need to purchase the Lion upgrade for both?

We have two Mac laptops in the household, does anybody know if you need to purchase the Lion upgrade for each?

No. You only pay for Lion once and can then install it on all of your household Macs.
Purchase Lion in the App Store using one of your Macs and the install button will appear for Lion under the Purchases tab when you open the App Store with your other Mac. The App Store will ask for your user name and password to install Lion but won't charge you for the second install. If you have more than one iTunes account use the one that you used to purchase Lion. All apps in the App Store work this way.

I bought app for iphone , Do i need to buy same app for MACBookPro again

I bought app for iphone , Do i need to buy same app for MACBookPro or its free ?
Why cant Apple put App Store in iTunes .
Thanks

The iPhone and the Mac do not run on the same operating system. IPhone apps do not run on a Mac. Mac apps do not run iPhone. If the developer has created an app for both the iPhone and the Mac they almost always sell them separately in the respective app stores.

Just got a new Iphone 5s. On my Iphone 4 I had to double click to show what apps were running and then to hold my finger on an app to deactivate it. Do you need to deactivate the apps on the 5s?

Double tap the home button to reveal the "Recently used Apps" then slide the App preview (not the icon) upwards to quit the App.

If I bought Pages for my Mac, I have to buy the same application for the ipad

I bought the application Pages for my iMac, I have to buy the same application for y Ipad also?

Yes, the Mac Pages app is different than the iOS Pages app.
Once you purchase Pages for iPad you can then use it on all your iOS devices (iPhone, iPod) but not on your Mac and vice versa.

If I got Beta do I need to buy the App?

I got the Beta when it first came out. Do I need to buy the app now? Will I get updates if they come out? Is the app store one a different version to the Beta I got?

Nope. You probably don't have a FaceTime HD camera.

Nope.

It supports HD calling, which also requires a FaceTime HD camera.

I keep getting an error after updating to Mavericks:To open "MLBNexDefAutobahn" you need to install the legacy Java SE 6 runtime.

I keep getting this error. I have tried to look for "uninstall nexdef," but can't find it. Any thoughts?

This is the java you need from apple

I am a student working on a project for school and I need to know the bandwidth options for the iPad mini with retina display

I am working on a project where I am required to introduce a new product for consideration in the hospital setting. I have chosen the iPad mini, and have been able to locate the information that I need except for the bandwidth options. Any help would be appreciated.

I don't know what you mean by "bandwidth options". If you mean the frequencies and bands the iPad can use with cell carriers, those are listed in the Wireless and Cellular area of the tech specs. For iPads sold in the US, see:
http://www.apple.com/ipad-mini/specs/
If that's not what you meant, please post back and clarify what you mean by "bandwidth options".
Regards.

Can I transfer pages app from my ipad to my imac or do i need to buy the program again

I am looking at buying an Imac and i was wondering if the two programs installed on my Ipad (pages and keynote) would be able to transfer from the ipad to the imac or would i need to purchase them again?

if you do buy it then you can use icloud to share docs between the ios and osx versions
but often it will make a copy as the formats are not 100% compatible which is odd

When I try to buy or update an app on my ipad, a window comes up asking me for a password using SOMEONE ELSE'S apple ID which prevents me from buying the app. How can I get my ipad toprompt for a password using my own apple ID, like it does w/ itunes

When I try to buy or update apps, myipad asks me for a password using SOMEONE ELSE'S apple ID, which prevents me from buying/updating apps. But when I am buying songs on itunes, the ipad asks me for my password using MY OWN apple ID and everything works fine. HOW DO I GET MY IPAD TO REQUEST MY PASSWORD USING MY OWN apple ID WHEN I AM BUYING OR UPDATING APPS?

The apps you are trying to update were purchased with (and therfore permanently linked to) someone elses Apple ID. If you do not know the password then you need to delete the app and redownload/purchase it with your Apple ID.

TS1702 Hello, I have a new ipad for my daughter. Do I have to pay again for iphoto, pages, etc to go on it or does it duplicate these. I cannot find a way to do this?

Hello helpful people ...I have a brand new ipad for my daughter and I. I have an iMac for which I have bought Aperture, Pages and iPhoto is also on it. Do I have to buy these all again for the ipad or will it duplicate them onto the ipad........is this a blonde moment and its really silly!!!??? Not massive user of Itunes so struggling a bit.......

You don't. As has been said you need to buy the iPad versions from the iOS App Store.
Tap on this icon on the iPad:

I updated my iPad 2 OS to iOS 6.0..after that I am unable to download or update anything from the App Store. The MSG I get is "id not valid for US store. Go to Indian store for purchase"..never faced this problem earlier before the update to OS 6..help!!

Apple's response to my email:
"I understand that you can't update your apps using your iPad.
Apple is currently working toward a resolution for the issue you have reported. You will receive an email after the matter has been investigated and further information is available.
Thank you for your patience. Apple wants your iTunes experience to be as enjoyable as possible. Have a great day!"

So here's my problem. I just used the "reset all settings" option, and accidentaly restored an old backup. It deleted all my photos and contacts, but for some reason I still have all the apps from after the backup date, is there a way to get it all back?

So here's my problem. I just used the "reset all settings" option, and accidentaly restored an old backup. It deleted all my photos and contacts, but for some reason I still have all the apps from after the backup date,and it also kept the notes from after the backup. The "reset all settings" option clearly says no loss of data or media, so I don't understand why some stuff got deleted. My question is, is there a way to get it back?

If you still can find a recent backup listed in iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices, use this one to restore from.
If there are no recent backups listed, your data is gone. Only if you included the iTunes backup folder into your computer backup routine, you could be able to restore this folder and find one of your latest backups listed again.

After I backed up and restored my device I cannot open the app (Good for Enterprise) that I use for my work email??

After I backed up and restored my phone I cannot open the app I use for my work email (Good for Enterprise)? It opens and immediately shuts down.

did you try deleting the app and reinstalling it?
