Getting my apps back for free?

So, time ago (like a month or two) my iPod got stolen (4th generation touch if that makes any difference), unfortunately for myself, I didn't get a chance to back up my last transactions on iCloud/iTunes, so all the  apps that I bought (like games and such) are now gone. Now that I got myself an iPhone 5, I was wondering if there is a way for me to get my apps back without having to pay for them a second time.

  • Getting iWork apps back for free after updating to ios8

    After updating to ios8 I lost all of my iWork apps. Now I have to pay money to get them back. I got them for free after buying the iPad mini retina last year and do not understand why now I have to pay money to get those back. I looked at the purchased section in the apps store but they don't show up there even if I had those apps before my iOS 8 update. Can somebody help me out with this? And am I missing something?

  • How do I get my iLife back for free after Lion Upgrade?

    I upgraded from the Snow Leopard OS to Lion OS (using the thumb drive Apple sales) about a week ago, using a "Clean Install"; after doing which, I found that I couldn't find a lot of the app.s my wife and I downloaded. Our iLife collection is the only set I am truely upset about.
    I called apple technical support and the lady asked me to find the Application CD that came with my iMac when I ordered it from Apple. I thought she would know what she was talking about and I ask a good deal of questions before using the CD. All the questions of which were answered to my satisfaction; however, I started the install of the CD and I got off the phone with the tech.supt. After about an hour, install done, iMac re-started, and my iLife app.s are no where to be found.
    And!!!...My computer is now doing this freeze thing...where we have to do a Forced Power down to get it unfrozen!
    Please help someone. I just want to get my wife's iphoto and iMovie back that she loves to tinker with (without having to pay for it all over again).

    Do you work for Apple? So what you are telling me: it doesn't matter if I payed for it once, Apple is so low tech or just could care less about its customers that I am going to have to come out of pocket again. What is the point of the 90 day technical support that Apple offers with the Lion upgrade when it is purchased if the technical support just says...sorry, we can't help you with this problem.?
    I am going to have to come out of pocket for a lot more than just the iLife collection that Apple has a copy of my purchase, which validates my request, yet Apple is not going to help me out. If that is the case, this would have to be the worst customer service I have ever gotten.
    You are correct that it is my fault that my apps are gone because I did the clean install and did not think to back up my app.s, but is Apple hurting that much for money that it needs to squeeze money out of people that delete software by mistake? I have gotten two app.s for free from other small time app writers to put back on this computer after the Lion upgrade just by emailing them what happened and my info.
    What about the freezing problem my iMac is having after I performed the task Apple tech supt told me to, which didn't work and created a new problem. You didn't address the freezing issue. You stating what I already said and adding a snooty comment to the end of it, while not offering any real help or advice pertaining to my questions, has been a waste of my time and an inconvenience to me that was not need. How about you think next time, before you type.
    If anyone else would like to point out that I messed up or that I have no choice but to pay again, please hold your comments and allow those who might have a suggestion or answer to post, so I can get the help I asked for. Thank you, and thank you QuickTimeKirk for the speedy reply.

  • I purchased the display version of my mac pro and it had the Pages app.  I just reset it to factory settings and the app is no longer on it.  Is there a way I can get it back for free?

    I purchased the display version of my Macbook Pro at a navy exchange.  The woman working at the store did not know how to reset to factory so I took it home as was.  I have been using it for about a month and the laptop had Pages and Keynote on it already.  I just reset to factory settings and it now has neither.  Is there a way to get these back for free?  I think my computer purchase makes it eligible to have these apps for free but since I reset it they are gone.

    Go to the App Store where you can purchase copies of the apps. You cannot get them for free. The ones installed belonged to the previous owner. You will need to purchase using your Apple ID.

  • My cousin told me there was a way to get free apps and that he could do it but what he really did was try to refund all my apps, the apps are gone from the history but no money has come back for me to even get the apps back, please help.

    My cousin told me there was a way to get free apps and that he could do it but what he really did was try to refund all my apps, the apps are gone from the history but no money has come back for me to even get the apps back, is this permanent?

    Yup!!
    Got what you deserved!
    Do not try and rip off or steal from people or companies.
    You have good cousin, there!(sarcasm)

  • How do I get a credit back for downloading an app that I thought was free and wasn't?

    How do I get my account credited for an app download that I thought was free for my 5 year old and ended up costing $10?

    No guarantees since the terms of sale for the iTunes Store say that all sales are final, but you can contact the iTunes Store, explain the issue, and ask:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    For the future, note that in many cases a developer makes the basic app available for free as a "trial version" but then charges as an in-app purchase for various features and upgrades. You may wish to disable in-app purchases in the Restrictions in the General settings so that such add-ons can't be inadvertently purchased.
    Regards.

  • I accidently deleted iphoto; how do I get it back for free?

    I accidently deleted iphoto; how do I get it back for free?

    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store or have a Recent Mac you can find it in your Purchases List.

  • I got my 27" Mac on 10/06/13...can I, or rather shouldn't I, get the iwork suite for free?  2 weeks is a hard hit for $60 in apps after spending $1800.

    I got my 27" Mac on 10/06/13...can I, or rather shouldn't I, get the iwork suite for free?  2 weeks is a hard hit for $60 in apps after spending $1800.  The store told me that Mavericks was guarenteed for 6 months.  So when I bought it early, (knowing that Mavericks was coming), I had no fears.  But to watch the keynote today, and come home and see the cost is a bit of a sour Apple.

    Are you trying to install a 32 bit or 64 bit version of Windows 8?

    Where did you buy this app?  If it was a Mac App Store app, which one was it?  If it was a third party app you will have to approach the developer and / or the seller.

  • I had photoshop elements on my laptop but had to uninstall it how do i get it back for free?

    You use your original install media. If you have PSE 11 you can download the trial and enter your serial number into that. For recent older versions, if you bought a download from adobe, if you go to the main page of adobe.com and click on My Adobe, you may still have a download link there. If your laptop came with PSE pre-installed, check your recovery partition to see if there's an installer there.
