History of re-downloaded apps?

Dear iTunes Store Community,
Is there a way to view history of re-downloaded apps?  I know how to view my purchase history in iTunes, but I'm looking for the number of times an app has been deleted from a device and downloaded again.  For example, let's say you have a child who downloads a game.  Later, the parents decide the game is inappropriate and makes the child delete it. Then, unbeknownst to the parents, the child downloads the app again.  When confronted by the parents, the child quickly deletes the app from iPad so as not to get detected. 
Many thanks!
Concerned Mama

You can't see a history of redownloads and/or deletes, you can only see the purchases.
You can use Settings > General > Restrictions on the device to hide the App Store app ('Installing Apps' set 'off') and/or change your account's password so that he/she can't redownload apps or download new ones

  • HT203433 I downloaded apps with one appleid on my iphone.  When my account was disabled I set up a new appleid & account.  Now I cannot update apps on my iphone that were downloaded with original appleid when I login with my new apple id.  What do I need

    I downloaded apps with one appleid on my iphone.  When my account was disabled I set up a new appleid & account.  Now I cannot update apps on my iphone that were downloaded with original appleid when I login with my new apple id.  What do I need to do?

    You can write into support and ask for help reenabling the account through this link here:
    http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/
    Since the applications were purchased on the older account, you will need to log into that account to update them. The newer account will not recognize the purchases because they are not a part of the purchase history for the specific account.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5913
    iPhoto, iMovie, Pages, Numbers, and Keynote are free on the App Store for qualifying iOS 7 compatible devices activated or purchased after September 1, 2013.
    The first time you launch the App Store in iOS 7 on your qualifying new or factory refurbished iOS device, you will be offered iPhoto, iMovie, Pages, Numbers, and Keynote for free in addition to other free software from Apple. When you tap Download All and sign in with your Apple ID, the apps will download to your device and appear in your store account.

    Note: If you aren't connected to WiFi when you accept the apps, any apps larger than 100MB will download when you have a WiFi connection.
    If your new qualifying device came with iOS 6 installed, you will be offered the apps after you update to iOS 7.
    If you already purchased and downloaded all the apps, they won't be available for free. You will, however, be eligible to download the updated versions.

  • When i logged in to itunes in the morning it started downloading the previously downloaded apps which i want to stop, please help me!

    yesterday i downloaded dead trigger and asphalt 8 and transferred them to my iphone 5c via itunes downloaded to my laptop, but whenever i log in again to itunes store it starts downloading those applications again which i want to stop, how to do that by keeping the downloaded apps into my account?

    Is this on your computer's iTunes ? If it is then do you have downward pointing arrow at the top right of the  iTunes screen :
    If you do, then does clicking on it open a popup window, and if it does do those apps show on it ? If they do can you select and delete them from there.
    Not sure what you mean by 'keeping the downloaded apps into my account'. If it's that you want to keep them linked to your account then as long as they remain in your country's store and you don't change countries then they will remain linked to your account - you can't delete any item from your purchase history.

    Try removing said card then re-enter all card details, if still no joy then try a different card to see if it is the card or a problem with your iTunes account, one other thing that you could try is changing your iTunes password as this sometimes cure thing as well.
    Also have a look at your purchase history to see if you have any items that are still waiting for payment as this can sometimes screw up your payment method, if this is the case then I would defiantly try a different card.
    If none of the above work then I would contact iTunes support.

  • Has anyone run across "error 1004" while trying to download apps on the iPad2? How can I resolve this?

    I downloaded my work apps on my new iPad with no issues, but when i went to download apps from the App store "error 1004" would popup and then i could not continue with the install.  I did a soft reboot and was able to download one app, but the next one came up with this error again.  Any thoughts?

    Try this. Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and cache (data in iOS 5) then restart the iPad. If that doesn't help, look here for more tips.

  • Can't download app from AppStore on iPhone 4s.

    I'm using iPhone 4S. Today i experience one specific problem. I wanted to download one free app on my iPhone and the download "started", and never finished. App was on my iPhone, but it wasn't downloaded, just App (witt download stuatus on)  and under it was text "Waiting...". I tried several apps and two accounts and on Wi-Fi and on cellular network but always the same, only once i got message "You've already purchased this but it hasn't been downloaded. If you're having trouble downloading it, select Check fo Available Downloads from iTunes on your computer, then sync with your device.". When i tried to download the same app on my PC it downloaded normally (but i want to be able to download and install apps directly on my iPhone). Is it device or AppStore problem or something else?

    I have been unable to download app updates & new apps for about a week. To solve I
    1. logged out of iTunes store
    2.  Closed all Safari windows
    3.  Closed all running applications by double tapping home-action key then holding down an app until I got the "-" circle above each. I then tapped the "-" circle on each app. (OBTW this can help save battery by closing background applications). I then tapped home-action key twice
    4. I then went to Settings - General then at the bottom performed a RESET. I lost my screen wallpapers & alarm clock settings and had to re-enter my wifi passwords. Photos, contacts & browser history etc remained.
    I was then able to download & install apps without any problem.
    Best regards. OBTW this my first post even though I'm a know-it-all

  • When i'm trying to download apps from app store, it show a icloud icon, which i do not sync my photo icloud. what should i do now?

    i can't download apps , coz it appear an icloud icon instead of "free"

    The cloud icon means you've already downloaded those Apps in the past and they are in your purchased history.
    For payed apps this would allow you to redownload them without having to pay again.
    Just tap on the cloud icon to start the download.

  • Hi, I couldn't download apps on my iPad 1. It say iOS update required for this action whereby my software is the latest 5.1.1

    I couldn't download apps using my iPad 1. It says that iOS update required for this action.

    Some developers allow you to download older compatible versions of their apps. If it's a free app then try downloading the current version on your computer's iTunes so that the app is in your purchase history, then on your iPad go to the Purchased tab in the App Store app and see if you can download an older compatible version of it. If it's a paid-for app then contact the developer first and ask them if the above will work, don't buy it and then find it won't

  • HELP! I cant download apps?

    Okay so i have an ipad mini and ive had it for since spring 2013 so nearly a year. But today for some odd reason
    I was unable to update an app. So i deleted the app and then went to get it again but it just says 'failed to download *app name*
    Please try again later. Somebody said to reset my ipad but wont that delete all my apps and other history stored?
    Please help :(

    No...resetting will not effect any of your data.
    Reset: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons and don’t let go until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears (no data will be lost)

  • While working on an app I lose all the data and all downloaded app.is this a common problem?

    while working on an app I lose all the data and all downloaded app.is this a common problem?

    Apologies. The second link I gave you shows an ipad so I thought it would be more helpful. If you scroll part way down, you'll see an ipad. I know that most say it's mainly an IE issue, but there is mention of turning off javascript.
    In the link below Apple claims that it blocks third party tracking if you turn on 'private browsing.' But is the site you're dealing with actually third party browsing? And if it's already embedded on your ipad, will clearing history, cookies and data take out your google issue? I know that when I do this, within minutes a long list of sites never visited are back on in 'website data'. Also, consider turning off java script. On 'accept cookies' click on never.
    To see all this on your ipad, go to settings, then click on Safari. On the right, try turning off 'accept cookies.' Turn on private browsing'. Keep 'block pop-ups' on. Personally, I would try one thing at a time. For example, first turn on private browsing and see what happens when you open the scrabble app.
    Then go to 'advanced' and look at website data. You possibly never visited many of those sites.
    Apple's take on it is that they're protecting Safari users, whether it's a mac or an ipad.

    This is technical info on what's going on but it doesn't seem to offer solutions.

  • Hi my case numbers is 30758085. I just try download apps store on my Verizon iPhone 4 but they keep ask me billling payment so I use my credit card but keep said wrong security codes so I check my apple itune balances said I owe itune 22.00 dollars

    Hi my case numbers is 30758085. I just try download apps store on my Verizon iPhone 4 but they keep ask me billling payment so I use my credit card but keep said wrong security codes so I check my apple itune balances said I owe itune 22.00 dollars but it not my apps download on my phone I always get free apps Download 

    Please don't post case numbers or other personal information here. None of us here (who will respond, anyway) work for Apple; we're all just fellow users.
    Anyway, as regards the security code issue, this may help:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646
    and as regards the balance, first make sure you didn't make any in-app purchases. Many "free" apps, particularly games, have additional levels or features that cost money. Check your purchase history in your iTunes Store account and see what you're being charged for.
    Regards.

  • HT201272 why i was charged again to download app i did pay for it already before?

    why i was charged again to download app i did pay for it already before, this heppend with the delete contact app, i did pay for it few month ago , and did try to download it again it charged me again!

    Maybe you went back to the store and repurhcased it. To downlaod past purhcases for free, you need to use your purhcase history.
