Have to buy an app again
I've bought an app but the itunes store doesn't work proportly so i deleated itunes and a few library files. I've reinstalled it again and now it works but i have to buy that app again. Can somebody help me?
An app made to run on your iPhone is made to run in iOS. It simply will not run in OS X or any other operating system. So you cannot run any of your iOS apps on your computer, be it Mac or Windows or Linux.
If this is an app like Apple's own Pages or Numbers, then yes, the versions for the different operating systems are separate purchases.

Click this link to open the web page for the iOS version of Pages which should automatically launch the iTunes Store.

Can I transfer apps from my iPad to my iMac- specifically I have iworks 09 on the pad, but 08 on the mac- I can't transfer documents to my iMac. Do I have to buy another copy for my mac or should i be able to use the app I purchased on the iPad? Please advise.
You will have to purchase them for the Mac - the two operating systems are totally different and what works on an iDevice will not work on a Mac.

Just updated to ios5 iCloud and iPad completely restored. Do I have to pay for the apps I did buy previously or can they be restored? I do not want buy them again!
In iTunes (after signing in) click on STORE>iTunes Store on the left side. Then click on App Store, then on the right side you will see APP STORE QUICK LINKS. Click on Purchased and you will be able to download anything you have purchased before.

hi there i have already downloaded pages numbers and keynote for my ipad2. do i have to pay to download them again for my mac desktop ?
Question asked and answered several times.
Yes, you must buy them.
They are really different products designed for different microprocessors and operating systems.
At this time, I guess that it may be a better idea to download the free 30 days trial iWork
Install it
run Software Update to apply the required updates (updater 9.0.5 required)
You will be able to use it during 30 days and with a bit of luck, the long awaited new version will be available.

If they were purchased from the iTunes store, redownload them for free: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519 (supported in most countries: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5085).

I have the "Nike + iPod" App again what am I suppose to do with it, this would be my second time. Someone told me it has serious implications is this true?
"Someone told me it has serious implications is this true?"
Serious implications?
If you have a Nike+ sensor in your shoe then you would use it to track you run.
Otherwise, you would do nothing with it. -
I have two macs in my house. One is newer and came with the os x mountain lion software and the other one needs to be upgraded. I was wondering if there is a way to take upgrade from one to the other? Should not have to buy this software again.
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Buy it for the other computer. Mountain Lion is preinstalled on the new Mac, but you can only use it in the new one -

Because you meet the minimum software requirements on your PC and not on your Mac

No - not if you do not meet the minimum requirements

I bought the CD of iWork's and have installed pages from it - to use version in Lion do I have to buy the app?? If I do, do I have to delete the other pages??
All you need to do is run Software Update to make sure you have the iWork 9.1 update. It will update your existing installation of the three applications. If you're not running the latest versions & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. Even if you think you'll never need all three of the applications, you cannot delete any. They must be in the iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work.

HT204370 why did i have to buy the movie again if i allready bought it?
why did i have to buy the movie again if i allready bought it? i want my money back
You can't get a new DVD, which is what RG said. VUDU, the download service Walmart resells, is a different subject and not what RG was referring to.
But what some other company can allow is irrelevent to the issue. From the iTunes Store, movies can be re-downloaded only in the US, and then only from those movie studios that have allowed it. This is not by Apple's choice; it's completely the choice of the movie studios.If your movie is not available under the Purchased section of your iTunes Store account, then redownloading is available only if you purchase the movie again.
