Getting iWork for free on a reset iPad Air

I recently purchased three (3) iPad Air 32 GB tablets for my workplace. One of the employees was dismissed, so that iPad was reset to accomodate another employee. I installed iWorks on all three iPad Airs originally for free.
The reset iPad Air can no longer get iWorks for free. Is this because the free offer is only for the first-time product activation?
Thank You,
Jeff

I believe you'll have to completely erase the iPad. Then, if your company ID was used originally, you should be able to re-download again without charge.

  • If I buy a mac with mountain lion and then upgrade to mavericks wil I get iWork for free, If I buy a mac with mountain lion and then upgrade to mavericks wil I get iWork for free

    If I buy a mac with mountain lion and then upgrade to mavericks will I get iWork for free.

    If you buy a new Mac with Mountain Lion, any included software is free and can be redownloaded from AppStore for that machine only. Some software only gets reinstalled if OS X (only) gets installed over itself to fix issues. See #8 Step here.
    ..Step by Step to fix your Mac
    If you upgrade to Mavericks usually only OS X itself is changed (sometimes the hidden User Library is also), all the  software (and user accounts) also carries over (compatible or not), and Apple's software is upgraded.
    So if your new Mountain Lion Mac comes with free iWork, then when you upgrade to Mavericks it will still be there.
    If your new Mountain Lion does not come with free iWork, then it won't magically appear for free if you upgrade to Mavericks.
    If you need a free Office suit, I suggest you look at the donationware LibreOffice.
    You will likely need to control key or right click to "Open" LibreOffice to approve through OS X's "Gatekeeper".
    You will need to manually update it also, as it's not on AppStore.
    https://www.libreoffice.org/
    Benefit of LibreOffice is it's completely cross-platform compatible, so you can share working files with Windows and Linux users, which you can't with iWork.
    You also should learn Microsoft Office when you have the funds, because it's standardized in the business world.

  • Buy a new iPhone 5 will get iWork for free?

    In Indonesia, iPhone 5c and 5S isn't available yet. So I will buy a new iPhone 5 in this month. According to the support page (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5913), I will get iWork for free if I purchased Apple device after September 1, 2013. Is it real or I just misunderstand that statement in support page?

    Does the Premium Reseller offer a return policy? If you purchased the phone in an Apple store you could return it within 14 days for a refund. If the store you're dealing with offer this you could buy the phone and go through the setup process. You'll soon learn what version of the iOS is installed.
    Given that, i would add that it is not wise to continue running iOS 6 when there are no own security flaws. iOS 7 solves those problems and adds the activation lock to prevent thieves from activating your phone should it be stolen or you lose it somehow.

  • Why don't older customers get iWork for free?

    I don't get why older customers don't get iWork for free. I just don't get it.

    Nobody here can tell you why Apple doesn't always make free stuff available to everyone.  But you can give them your opinion about at

  • Cannot get iWorks for free, for new device

    I bought a new iPad mini with retina display. I logged in to App store and I didn't download iWorks for free at that time. Later when I logged in to iTunes again, it indicated I need to pay instead of free.  How can i get it back for free?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Have you tried logging out of your account, back in and then trying again.

  • Is there a way to get iWork for free?

    I have iTunes and an account and an iPad. I thought that it would be logical to give iWork for free because on the big screen it is easy. Does anybody know if you could get iWork free and llegaly.

    So do I. I paid for Pages for my iPad but I have iWorks on my Mac. The only way that I know of to get it for free and get it legally is to have someone else pay for it.
    But seriously - there is no way to get the iWorks suite of apps for free on the iPad. I don't quite understand what you think getting it for free would be logical because it is easy on the big screen? Am I missing something?

  • HT4623 Why can I not get the iPhoto and iMovie apps for free on my new iPad air

    I have an iPhone 5 but just got an iPad air for Christmas. I didn't realize I set my iPad up under another Apple ID until my phone was not syncing with my iPad so I erased all content and reset the device to put them both on the same Apple ID. The problem I'm having now is the apps that are supposed to be free like iPhoto and iMovie are saying I have to pay 4.99 for them how do I fix this problem. Cause I did have them installed when I had it set up under the other Apple ID name :(
    Thank you

  • How can I get iwork for free?

    I can't remember if I saw the free iwork for my ipad air but I missed it. I really want to have them all. I bought it just for maore than a month.

    The iWork apps for a Mac and for iOS devices are different, they are different operating systems.
    If your iPad was activated after 1st September 2013 (and you are using the same account that was used to activate the iPad) then you should be able to download the apps for free in its App Store app. If it was activate before that date (or you are not using the same account) then you will need to pay to download the apps.

  • If I buy an iMac (educational price), do I get iWork for free?

    Because I remember in one of the pictures there was a picture of it with the Mac, so was wondering if that comes along with it for free, alongside the £70 voucher..?!

    What exactly do you need? iWork isn't actually for sale any longer, the items inside iWork all sell separately now.
    Pages (word), Keynote (powerpoint), Numbers (excel) all sell for ~£13.99 each, so if you only need Pages for example, it's quite cheap.

  • If I buy a new iPhone 5s, will I get iWork for free on my iPad and MacBook?

    Or is it only on my iPhone 5S

    To get the versions for your Mac, free, you need to purchase a new Mac. So, no.

  • I just bought a new macbook pro and was able to get iWorks for free but the App Store is trying to charge me for iLife.

    What do I need to do to get my free copy of iLife?

    You should accept the apps within the App Store -> Purchases tab.
    Otherwise delete adoption.plist from /Library/Application Support/App Store/ or /Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore/
    Of course it depends on the age of your computer. If it was purchased before OS X Lion was released then you need to reinstall the iLife suite from the original DVD.

  • Got a new ipad air but Can't download IWORK for free.

    Hi,
    Just got from a family member a new Ipad Air that was bought after September 1.
    I wanted to download iwork apps that were supposed to be free, but they weren’t.
    I discovered that my family member registered the ipad under his account, and only the on next day he gave me the new device. After I found that out, we deleted the registration of new ipad from his apple ID, and registered the new device under my account (including the serial number of the new device).
    However, the iwork apps are still not free. What can I do to get them for free as promissed?
    Any help will be grate...

    Go to the App Store on your iPad which should open to Featured. If not, tap on Featured at the lower left of the screen & scroll down to Collections & tap on New to the App Store? then scroll down to Apps Made by Apple & tap. You should now see the iWork & iLife apps as "FREE."

  • Will I need to purchase iWork for my iPad if I purchase an iPhone 5s? Everybody knows the iPhone 5s with IOS7 gives iWork for free. Then iWork would be listed as purchased app in my itunes store under my account. My iPad retina is in the same account...

    Will I need to purchase iWork for my iPad if I purchase an iPhone 5s? Everybody knows the iPhone 5s with IOS7 gives iWork for free. I assume that if I buy an iPhone 5s (or 5c) then iWork would be listed as a "purchased" app in my itunes store under my account. My iPad retina is in the same account... or are keynote, pages, and numbers completely seperate between ipad and iphone? I know they would be a seperate purchase for my Powerbook. Thanks so much for your help!

    Hi,
    I was able to load the Productivity Suite / Free !!  on both my iPad mini and my iPhone 5s with no problems and at no cost.
