Can't download aps without an account??

how do I enjoy my brand new iphone (my first "i" piece of hardware ever) if I can't download aps? I had itunes once, for 3 days, a long time ago. it was a pain in the butt so I got rid of it and won't download it again.

Oh. Surely not that much?
seemed to update frequently.
I suppose so.
slowed everything down, didn't run well. and I just didn't need it.
Not my experience except when I ran the Windows version.
the bigger point: I was sold I phone and told how easy and fun the aps are. maybe. but getting to the point of being able to download free aps isn't worth the hassle of setting up yet another account with yet another company.
You should persevere, you'll enjoy the phone. Surely that's the same kind of hassle you get when you try and buy something from a lot of online retailiers these days? They all want you to create an account.
and downloading all sorts of other software to make that account work.
How d'you mean?
Nobody said anything about itunes being required.
I'll give you that one, I've come across a few people who assumed it was just like using a regular mobile-but it is there on the poster and in the specs.
or any applicable charges going somewhere other than my cell bill.
Not sure what you mean here.
am pretty sure most other PDAs are much less hassle and will provide enough aps to keep me happy.
You could well be right.

    iTunes on a computer and then a sync, or the App Store app on the device are the only ways of installing apps on iOS devices.

    Hi gene98,

    It sounds like you still need to change the country for your iTunes Store account. Please review the attached article for information and instruction on how to do so.

  • HT201272 How can i download from two different accounts without the 90 day rule?

    I have two Apple IDs because I had lost the other one and made a new one. I recently bought a new computer and went I also found my old password for my first ID. I downloaded my purchased from the first one and now it is telling me I have to wait 90 days to download from a different account. What do I do?

    Why would you start a new account?  Why not just correct the original account?

  • Can you download something without setting up Apple I'd. It asks for owner pw.

    Can you download to a new MacBook without setting up Apple ID. It asks for owner pw. OS Mavericks was preloaded when purchased.

    You need an Apple ID to download items from the Mac App Store. Other than that the only Password that may be required is the Administrator password when installing it. 
    If the computer was bought second hand, unless the computer was originally sold by Apple with OSx Mavericks pre-loaded, you have no license to use an OS associated with someone else's Apple ID, and you would have to format the computer, and install the original OS.
    Any reason you don't want to create an Apple ID?

  • How can I download Lion without the app store?

    My friend bought his Macbook pro summer 2009 so whatever operating system that it came with (10.5 lepord I believe) did not download the app store when it updated. Now he wants to put lion on his macbook pro. Is there a way to download it without the app store? If not, how can he get the app store?
    Any help would be great!

    Yes, you need to upgrade to Snow Leopard before upgrading to Lion. You can purchase Snow Lion from the online Apple Store, a brick-and-mortar Apple Store, or from Amazon.
    Then you will have the App Store application and you can upgrade to Lion.

  • How can I download firefox WITHOUT visualbee

    I downloaded the newest version of firefox yesterday to keep my current version up to date. Visualbee was included. I was unable to delete this annoying, irritating, unnecessary, frustrating and completly useless piece of nonsense that i have experienced since I began using a computer to connect with the internet.
    I had to use every piece of software at my disposal to eliminate all traces from my computer.
    Visualbee seems to have the power to keep adding itself to my registry even though I had attempted to remove it. It is self generating in a way that i have never experienced before.
    I have been using firefox for several years.
    If I am not able to download firefox WITHOUT visualbee ... SO BE IT. GOOGLE CHROME GETS LOOKNG BETTER AND BETTER AS THE CLOCK TICKS. [email protected]

    ''Are you aware that Firefox has an update feature built-in? You shouldn't need to download and install a newer version to "update" it.''
    Where did you download Firefox from? Mozilla doesn't include garbage "extras" like when you download Firefox from an official website.

  • HT1311 I am a teacher and I use my ipad in my classroom. I have my own personal itunes account.  My school has set up an itunes account for teachers to download shows for school. Can i download from the achool account onto my ipad without losing my stuff?

    I am a teacher and use my personal ipad to teach in my class.  My school has set up a separate itunes account for teachers to download shows for use in class. How do i download from a different itunes account than i use personally?

    You sign out of your ID in Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Apple ID, then sign onto the school ID in order to use it. You know your situation better than I do, but when you switch ID's on the iPad and go back and forth in order to download purchases, you run the risk of locking yourself out of one of the ID's for 90 days.

  • Authenticating Proxy problem? Can't download TV show, view account

    I'm using iTunes 8.0.1 (12) on OS X 10.5.5 on a 1GHz mini. This evening I am unable to download a TV show for which I have a season pass, nor can I view my account information. Requests like "CONNECT p8-buy.itunes.apple.com:443 HTTP/1.1" clearly get to my proxy, which sends a "HTTP/1.0 407 Proxy Authentication Required" response, which iTunes is ignoring.
    Now, here's the crazy bit. When I quit iTunes and reload it and head into the store, it requests my proxy credentials, which I give it. I can move around in the shop, I even started watching a free video podcast. But the show and the account are non-functional.
    Anybody else seeing this? Anybody else using iTunes through a proxy that requires authentication and not seeing this? Any general suggestions?
    Thanks.

    Been playing with this more, it's still unresolved.
    I also tried adding my proxy username and password into the Network -> Advanced -> Proxies page manually, and permitting iTunes to always be permitted to use the credentials. Doesn't help.
    I've tried to follow the requests. After hitting the "Sign In" button, here's a summary of the requests. The leading + or - sign indicates whether the request included proxy authentication information. Every request that included proxy authentication information succeeded.

  • Can I Share Calendar without Exchange Account? in outlook 2013 (Professional Ed.)

    Hello,
    I would like to share my calendar with one of my office colleague, we are not using Microsoft Exchange Server, we are on Google business Apps Account.
    My Share Calendar option is Grayed out (Plz. refer to attached image).
    I will appreciate if some may inform the possibility to enable Share Calendar option ?
    Thanks & regards
    Ali

    Hi,
    The Share Calendar option is only available for Exchange account. If you want to share calendar for a non-Exchange account, you'll need to publish it online. See:
    https://support.office.com/en-ie/article/Share-an-Outlook-calendar-with-other-people-cafb9303-1b1e-40d3-839d-b6abac03a5e8
    Since you are using Google Apps Account, you can try using Google Apps Sync for Microsoft Outlook. With this,
    you can easily share calendars with other Google Apps users, both within your organization and publicly. People can view your calendar either in Outlook or from their Google Calendar account in a web browser. See:

  • Can I download from different iTunes accounts on one device

    Hi,
    I am interested in buying an iPad and would like to know:
    1) Is it possible for me to use two iTunes accounts to download apps from two different regions (Canada & China) on one device?
    2) If no, is there a workaround or some suggestions?
    3) If yes, how can it be done and can I use more than one laptop to manage the iTunes library of this device?
    Thanks in advance

    Yes. Create a new Windows user account.

    I have a apple account, but when I try to download apps, I need to submit my credit card, and my country is not in the list of countries. I tried using the default of USA, but it is invalid. Please help

    Due to various laws and regulations, you can't purchase/download anything from the U.S. iTunes store unless you are a U.S. resident. Your credit card must have a billing address in the U.S. in order to do so.
