Downloading large apps via a second computer

I've moved to a new city for a new job opportunity. Everything is great except the home Internet charges in this city are outrageously expensive for such a small data amount!
My iPad has several large apps it needs updating which would blow my home Internet data usage for the month if downloaded by home Wifi.
I have free internet at work.
My question is could I setup iTunes on my work computer, (windows), and log into my apple account and download one or two of the large apps that I have brought, and then take them home and put them into the iTunes-mobile applications folder on my Mac (deleting the older version) and then Sync my iPad?
Would iTunes recognize that the app has been updated or is there some internal database that needs to be updated that recognizes the new version of the app?
Apart from using my employers Internet usage, everything else is legit.
Thanks for your feedback.

You should be able to download the app to your normal computer (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519) and get it onto yout iPhone that way.
If you are away from that computer, then you download all your apps to the iMac and then try syncing - I had a similar issue when I moved to a new computer and it said that it would delete all my apps off it, but it didn't (though I did copy all music and apps to it first).

I have a annual plan, it supposed must be used in two terminals, but i haven´t been able to install any app in a second computer, it always says that the app is only available as a trial download. What can I do to solve this issue, and be able to use my paid plan in two computers?

Invalid checksum for iTunes? ... can't download large apps?

I've noticed two things.
First, I've tried to download iTunes 11 from both the app store and a straight download, and, both ways (and every time -- 7 tries now), I get an invalid checksum. I've downloaded from Chrome; I've downloaded from Safari. I can't imagine the source is the problem, so what's happening there? My network connection seem otherwise solid, based on my ping rate to California, and standard web use.
Secondly, iTunes 10 won't download large apps. Neither the 'Magic the Gathering' update or the 'Grand Theft Auto: Vice City' app will download. (Both of those weigh in at over a gig.) At some point during the download, I get the warning, "An unknown error occurred (-50)." Smaller apps seem fine.
This is with a late 2008 13-inch Macbook Pro running 10.8.2.
Help? ... and thank you!

Just need to find a way to get a hold of someone who can fix this.

I have two drives in my macbook pro. How can I download my apps to my second data hard drive instead of my OS SSD drive?

I have two drives in my macbook pro. How can I download my apps to my second data hard drive instead of my OS SSD drive? Is there a way to point the default directory in the app store to a different hard drive? Certainly for a Mac Pro this makes sense.

TS3991 Downloading an app on a second apple device using the same apple id

I have two apple devices. When I log into my second device with my same Apple ID, apps that have been previously downloaded appear with a cloud icon. When I click on this icon, it does not download my app on my second device. Why is this occurring?

Something, but usually three reasons.
1. there is something wrong with your account - easiest way to sign out of itunes account and sign back in and you will be prompted for whatever was wrong.
2. Not enought space on the phone
3. Restrictions are enabled for some type of contenct.

HT1725 whenever i download larger apps i.e 100mb, after download is completed, instead of processing it just restarts downloading

whenever i download larger apps i.e > 100mb,
after download is completed, instead of processing it just restarts downloading

You can automatically save downloads without seeing the Open/Save/Cancel dialog in the Options:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > General > "Saves files to"
However, I can't think of a way to have the Open/Save/Cancel dialog always default to Save. I think mine suggests whatever I did last for the same type of content, but I haven't paid close attention.
I'm out of time to address the problem with "do this automatically" but there is one suggestion for why it could be grayed out in this article: [[Change what Firefox does when you click on or download a file]].
Is it possible you had a download-related extension before? To compare settings and extensions, please retain the Old Firefox Data folder on your desktop. Aside from checking the extensions in there, it would be interesting to run a text file comparison on your currently active prefs.js file and your old one in that folder.
