Can I pay for an app and have it sent to another computer

Can I pay for an app with my account and have it sent to my grandson's computer?

Theresa...
No. Reason being you purchased the app using your Apple ID. It would not work on his computer.
If you click the gray arrow to the right of the purchase price of an app, if you see, "Gift This App", then you can send that as a "gift" but only apps with that option.
If he doesn't have one, he will need to setup an iTunes account >  Apple - My Apple ID
iTunes Store Terms & Conditions require that he be at least 13 yrs of age >  iTUNES STORE - TERMS AND CONDITIONS

  • ITunes account to pay for gift apps and Apple Store items

    Is there a reason why i cannot use my iTunes account funds to pay for gifted apps and Apple Store items?
    it only make sense.

    You can use your iTunes Store balance to purchase from the Mac App Store, but not from the Apple Online Store.
    From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4463, "Note: If you have an existing credit balance on your iTunes Store account, that balance will be shared across the iTunes Store and Mac App Store."

  • HT201304 How do I prevent paying for an app and what is an in app restriction

    How do I prevent paying for an app and what is an in app restriction

    You can't prevent paying for an app if you buy one. You can, however, turn off the ability to install apps in the Restrictions settings (Settings/General) which blocks the App Store app on the iPhone. You can also block making purchases of extra features or capabilities from within an app, which is referred to as an "in-app purchase", in the same Restrictions.
    Regard.

    After I upgraded to Mavericks I was also having this message when I tried to update. There was a previous post about this problem which offered this simple solution which worked for me:

    Got it! Thanx.  What I did was go to my account, check that they had my new ID and Password which they did, then hit reset button. All fixed.

  • HT201359 Why have I been extra charged for an app and have been billed twice for the same app?

    Why have I been extra charged for an app and have been billed twice for the same app?

    We are are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support here, we won't know why.
    I don't know what you mean by 'extra charged' (have you made in-app purchases within the app, or are you in the US and need to add on your state's sales tax to the listed price ?), or have you added or changed your credit card details on your iTunes account ? If you have then each time that you do so a small temporary store holding charge may be applied 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 - it should disappear off your account within a few days or so.
    Store holding charge : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3702
    If you've been double-charged 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

  • How can I pay for an app using a company credit card

    I am buying Final Cut Pro and it is available only in as a download on the app store (as far as i know) and I need to pay with a company credit card but when i log in it brings up my personal payment info. Is there a way to add a second payment method?

    There isn't a way to enter credit card for two cards in the same account. You can only enter cards one at a time. You can replace the current card with a different card.

    Hello Ultimate2233,
    Sounds like you need to update your billing information.
    Check out this part of the article named iTunes Store: Changing account information found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1918.
    First:
    Changing your account information using a computer:
    Open iTunes.
    Choose Store > Sign In.
    Enter your Apple ID and password, then click the Sign In button.
    Choose Store > View My Account.
    Enter your account password, and click the View Account button.
    Then:
    To update your name, billing address, or payment information, follow these instructions:
    From the Apple Account Information page, click the Edit Payment Information button.
    Edit the information that you would like to change.Note: The payment methods that the iTunes Store accepts can be found in the payment type section. If you do not want a payment method on your account, select None in the payment type section.
    Click the Done button once you've updated all of your information.
    Take care,
    Sterling

    I am having the same problem as many of you. 3G iPhone. 2.0.2.
    In the past 3 weeks I have had at least 5 if not 8-10 examples of loss of all iPod content and access to all apps. I know this happens on 2.0.2 and I know it happened at least a couple of times on 2.0.1. I am fairly certain that it never happened on 2.0.0.
    This seems to happen EVERY time that the iPod crashes and reboots itself or when I force a hard reset. I haven't tried with a normal turn off/shut down in fear of having to go through this whole process again.
    I have a solution that while not optimal works EVERY TIME!
    1. Do a "reset all settings" from general settings. This will wipe out the set up of an exchange mail client, but not Yahoo, Gmail, or POP. While a pain this only takes a few minutes to reset up. It will not touch any app settings, high scores, etc. Additionally, all of your apps will need to reordered on the screen if you are like me and like certain ones to be on certain pages. Again, a pain, but this takes 5-10 minutes max for 4 pages worth of apps. Additionally, you will need to change any other personalized settings that you have set up (ring tones, favorites, brightness, etc.) At this point all iPod content will be back, but apps still won't work.
    2. Go to the app store and download any app that you want. This will have you reinputing your username and password. Once this is compthe app is fully downloaded and installed you will have access to all of your apps again and your phone will work perfectly UNTIL THE NEXT TIME YOU HAVE TO DO THIS. Note, during this step, I have done a hard reset multiple times and gone through a overly long Apple logo time frame (and sometimes even hard reset during the Apple logo again) but this has yet to have any ill effect. Once the phone comes back up all apps works and all iPod content is there.
    Finally, I have now stopped downloading or updating apps directly from the phone if at all. As this often causes or requires a hard reset.
    Generally I get one to two days before having to do this again.
    Please know I am not suggest this is all OK and I am barely tolerating this as it should just get fixed, but this is pretty easy and while monotonous on the 5th+ time, it isn't that time consuming and has worked every time.

    Downgrading to iTunes 7.7.0 following the steps in the link below has worked for me for about 12 days now.

    It boggles my mind that with an issue like this so big that Apple STILL doesn't have a permanent fix for it yet.

  • HT204053 My kids now each have an itouch, should we all have different apple ids even if I am paying for all itunes and app store purchases? what about icloud? I would like to share itunes and app purchases, but not necessarily photos...help please!

    My kids now each have an itouch, should we all have different apple ids even if I am paying for all itunes and app store purchases? what about icloud? I would like to share itunes and app purchases, but not necessarily photos...help please!

    The recommended solution for most families is to share the same Apple ID for iTunes and App Store purchases, so you can share your purchases, but us different IDs for iMessage, FaceTime and iCloud.  With this arrangement, each person can automatically download purchases made on the shared ID (by turning this feature on in Settings>iTunes & App Stores), while keeping their FaceTime calls, text messages and iCloud data (including photo stream) separated.  There is no requirement that the ID you use for purchasing be the same as the ID you use for these other services.
