Apple Configurator won't install a purchased VPP app

I'm trying to install Puffin Browser on 20 iPads through a sync cart using Apple Configurator.  I purchased it through VPP and imported it in ok, but when I go to add the apps, the check mark is grayed out (see pic below).
Help!!!

Hi joemoorhead,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  This article has instructions for downloading your previous purchases on Apple TV:

If you've purchased it and still can't get it to download, I would also report the issue to the iTunes Store:

  • Using apple configurator can i install paid and free apps onto a supervised ipad?

    I have read somewhere that you can only put free apps onto an unsupervised device and only paid apps can be put on a supervised device. Does this mean that an ipad cannot have both free and paid apps on it at once?

    Hi Samantha,
    You can have both free and paid apps on Supervised iPads. Not sure where you read that you couldn't... We have both paid and free apps on all of our 1,000+ iPads in our school district.
    Hope this answers your question!

  • Apple Configurator won't open.

    I am teacher using a class set of iPads for the first time. I had hoped to use Apple Configurator to sync iPads and manage everything.
    When I first tried, I got the message during the Prepare stage that the Apple ID wasn't authorized. I authorized the MacBook Pro OSX I am using to use the Apple ID I wanted so that worked. Then, I got the error message during the Supervise stage that it cannot install app. I never figured out which one after some trial and error.
    But, NOW Apple Configurator won't open - it says the file might be corrupted, truncated, or in an unexpected format. How can I totally get rid of a file and start again?
      I've tried moving to the trash, emptying the trash and then reinstalling. I've tried restarting my computer. I've tried using both of my iTunes accounts to get it from the App Store and every time I try to open it, the same error message comes up. Is there some temporary or other file that I need to get it out of in order to start new?
    Thanks for your help.

    You can try completely deleting your configurator data folder. This should reset the app to a clean state, but you will lose all device and user data.
    For Configurator 1.2 or later, delete the folder ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.configurator
    For Configurator 1.1 or previous, delete the folder ~/Library/Application Support/com.apple.configurator.

  • TS1702 I have 2 Apple Ids on my phone I purchased an App on 1 id but when I tried to upgrade it it used my other id, therefore the app would not download because of different id

    I have 2 Apple Ids on my phone I purchased an App on 1 id but when I tried to upgrade it used the other id and the App wouldn't accept it as different account name. Asking me to download the App for this id. but can;t because the App is already installed on my phone.

    you have to use the same ID you used to purchase an App to update it.
    Normally when you go to the App Store and tap update for an App your iPhone will prompt you for the correct ID needed to update that particular App, but if this is not happening, then you should go to Settings, Store, sign out of the other Apple ID and log in with the one you need to update the App that is already installed on your iPhone..

  • Apple IDs for Purchasing VPP apps

    Are there any requirements on the Apple ID I use to purchase a VPP app which I will then install using Apple Configurator onto supervised iPads?
    The indicated text is:
    "Use an Apple ID that is not the ID of the VPP program facilitator or designated purchaser to log into the iTunes Store. Enter this same Apple ID if Apple Configurator prompts you when importing an app or installing an app to a device. Make sure your Mac is authorized to use purchases made on this iTunes Store account. iTunes allows you to use the same Apple ID on up to five computers."
    Am I interpreting this correctly to mean that I should not use the Program Manager (i presume that is what they mean by designated purchaser) or Facilitator account, and must create a third account just for making the initial purchase of an app through iTunes so that I can then import it into Apple Configurator?
    Should I make an effort to ensure that this Apple ID is a shared account that others in my department can access in the future?

    Thank you; I don't know why I couldn't find this during my searches.

  • Will Apple configurator work when Ipads already have paid apps on them via VPP redemption code

    HI - we have 60 ipads under our care, and until very recently we bought apps using the VPP redemption code method, and loaded them on manually - there was something in the Ts&Cs which allowed you to load a code onto one ipad, then as long as you had enough codes, you could auto install apps on multiple ipads using the same apple id.  We have a master backup on the icloud.
    We have now got a Mac and I was looking into using Apple Configurator, but I'm not sure how that will work with existing paid apps already on the ipads.  Can anyone give me some pointers?

    Wait unti the app is done downloading in your iTunes. Then go back to your VPP account and down load the spreadsheet again and upload into configurator. The process is a pain, but the only way it works for you to get all of your codes into configurator.

  • Apple Configurator: Enable to install profile code=14

    So I am trying to manage a iPhone 3Gs using OSX Server  and Apple Configurator.
    For OSX server:
    I am running:
    - Open Directory
    - DNS with the zone local and the mini.local (which is my OSX server machine)
    - Websites
    - Profile Manager
    I created a self signed certificate for the OSX Server profile manager, checked the 'Sign Configuration files' where I use this self signed certificate.
    In Profile manager (https://mini.local/profilemanager/) I created a Enrollment Profile which I downloaded and I downloaded the trust certificate.
    In Apple configurator I created a WiFi profile which only contains information about my WiFi connection.
    Using Apple Configurator I configure the iPhone 3Gs (Supervision is on) and I upload the three profiles:
    - Wifi
    - Trust
    - Enrollment
    Everything works, accept for the enrollment profile.
    I tried several stuff, including setting the ipaddress for the DNS of the mini into the iphone.
    Unfortunately I keep getting this error in my logs:

    Self fixed.  Found an unauthorized app had modified the HOST file to prevent check in with Apple.

  • Apple configurator won't connect to ipads

    hello,  i am trying to set up all my companys' ipads in supervised mode.  i tested on a mac book pro (recent model, less then 6 months old) running 10.82 and the devices took fine.  i have since reformatted them back to clean OS with iOS 6 and have purchased a new mac mini running 10.82.  now, when i plug any ipad (a 2 or a 3) directly into the mini (no usb hub), using the original apple cable i get an "unrecognized device" error.  what gives?  it worked fine on the MBP, but not on a brand new mini?  i have even tried brand new ipads out of the box and then brand new ipads with just the iOS 6 update.  nothing is working.  also, i am using the latest version of Apple configurator (downloaded it fresh today).  thanks in advance for any help.

  • Apple configurator won't transfer paid apps across to iPads? Help? why?

    I Have purchased a number of licenses to one app however when I transfer across to iPads using apple Configurator not all apps transfer across to the iPads. Say 25 out of 30 go over but then Configurator says all licenses used? What's going wrong. Help please

    I ended up leaving them blank and putting all the apps into Meraki for downloading.

  • Getting logs from Apple Configurator / Can't install in house app

    Does anybody know how to get logs out of the Apple Configurator?  I'm evaluating it for deployment of an in house app to 100 ipods.  My tests are returning a simple message stating "Can't Install App" which doesn't help me at all.  It would be nice to see a log of WHY it didn't install.
    Thanks.

    I'm guessing nobody has this working?
    To get the error message look in the Console app and filter for configurator on all messages, when i try to install i get the error...

    My application builds and has been signed with my Enterprise distribution cert, like others I can install this app OTA and with iTunes.  I'm guessing its a bug with the Configurator app?

  • Why apple charge me $0.99 without purchase any app yet

    I have created a new Apple ID today to use with Mac App Store and after I completed a credit card information, Apple charged me $0.99 (31.62 Thai Baht) without purchasing any app.
    Will I get those money back?
    Please help, thank you.

    Hi Dah•veed,
    I just wondering that when will Apple return my money? and how they return it, via a credit to Apple ID or transfer back to my bank account?
    Do you have any informations?
    Thank you.

  • Apple Configurator: "Unable to determine current price of app"

    I'm trying to import an free app to the Apple Configurator. Every time I attempt this I get the error message "Unable to determine current price of app."
    I've tried creating a new Apple ID to download the app, swapping the Apple ID associated with Apple Configurator, different phones (I have 25 to deploy) and all with the same problem.
    I can only find one other mention of this problem http://techrecess.com/2012/03/supervising-devices-with-apple-configurator/ and there's no solution. I'm hoping somebody else will ahve experienced this and found an answer.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

    I think you may have given me the solution. I'll ask the company to make the app available on the US store too and I'll see what happens then.
    I might file a bug report or similar with Apple. It would be useful if the configurator checked via the store relevant to the country that the account is registered with. Partially defeats the point of setting an account in the configurator.
    Thanks for your help.
