How are schools updating Apple Apps via app store without sharing AppleID information?

Wondering how other schools and districts are updating Apple Apps in the Mac App Store. Initial updates were done with a institutional AppleID that is not shared with the users. Tried checking the updates via Terminal with softwareupdate -l and the results is only iTunes and not the other apple apps like Pages, iMovie, Keynote.
Anyone have suggestions on getting the updated apps to the workstations?
10.7 clients

OK so I finally managed to find some time to call Apple Support on this matter.
Apparently it is because I downloaded the apps some time ago and that these were associated with my old email.
If they are free apps (mine were - LinkedIn, Facebook, and a couple of others), you simply delete these from your phone, then reinstall them from the Appstore on the phone - easy! To delete an app, simply hold your finger on it until it 'wiggles' then click on the X in the top left corner of the app icon. Then simply boot up appstore and download the new version.
If you have Apps that you have paid for, then I suggest you give them a call and see what they can do for you as I didn't need to cover this off with them.

You can download updates to your computer's iTunes via the Check For Updates button at the bottom of the Apps section of your iTunes library. When they've been downloaded, and if you haven't already done so, connect the iPad to your computer and select it on the left-hand side of iTunes (if you don't have the left-hand sidebar showing then you can enable it via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), and on the Apps tab on the right-hand side clicking the Sync button at the bottom of it should install the relevant updates.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPod to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPod under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
You posted in the iPad forum instead of the iPod forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa I'll request that Apple relocate your post.

HT1711 How do I update new versions of Apps using the new iTunes?

Good day all. I am having problems downloading updated versions of some Apps using the new iTunes. How do I update new versions of Apps using the new iTunes?

You can go back to the old view with the left-hand sidebar via View > Show Sidebar (if you are on windows then alt-v should show the View drop-down menu) - which is what I'm currently doing as I'm familiar with that way.
Or, on the new view you can click on the library type at the top left and select Apps and then Check For Updates at the bottom right of the screen. When you've downloaded the updates to your computer, click on Library top right to go back to your library view from the store, then select the iPad (top right) and Sync at the bottom right should then copy the updates to your iPad.

I am a podcaster; the podcasts I publish are not updating in the Podcast app.

I am a podcaster, and my listeners complain that my podcasts are not updating in the Podcast app.
The podcasts are updating without incident on RSS, in the iTunes store, and on other services, such as Stitcher. I have tested my RSS feed and it seems to be OK.
But the last 5 podcasts in the Podcast App are all the same sound file, even though the text surrounding the sound file updates with each new weekly episode.
Any ideas how to fix this?

How can i purchase an app of japan store without change my itunes store? i have balance in my US ac so i cant change my stores, but the app i want to purchase in jp store is a free app.... i know apple dun allow balance spend in other countriesbutitisfree

You cannot use the Japanese iTunes Store unless are physically present there and have a Japanese payment method. This applies even for free apps; you cannot get them from the Japanese iTunes Store if you are in the US.
If you are in Japan, you can set up a new iTunes Store account just to get free apps. See:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
Read the steps carefully as the order in which you follow them is critical. Note that you can do this only when creating a new Apple ID. You cannot use an existing ID.
If you have moved to Japan and wish to change the country of your account permanently, you can contact the iTunes Store and ask them to clear your remaining balance. You will need to be able to provide a Japanese payment method, though.
Regards.

How to import updated version of APEX app without losing saved IR's?

Oracle XE 11.2
Apex 4.1
Linux Red Hat 5.4
============
Does anyone have suggestions on how to import updated version of APEX app without losing saved IR's?
Also, I want to maintain app id from update to update (from revision to revision). In fact, I think that that is required in order to keep the saved IR's.
The only process I have found that seems to "work" (i.e. loads new revision of app over old revision of app) is the following (via SQL*Plus):
declare
l_workspace_id number;
begin
select workspace_id into l_workspace_id
from apex_workspaces
where workspace = 'MYWORKSPACE';
apex_application_install.set_application_id(400);
apex_application_install.set_workspace_id(l_workspace_id);
apex_application_install.generate_offset;
apex_application_install.set_schema('MYSCHEMA' );
apex_application_install.set_application_alias( 'MYSCHEMA_ALIAS' );
end;
@new_version_of_app.sql;
but I do not have any saved reports in this app. Will this process keep the saved IR's from the previous version of the app 'intact'?
Thanks.

Hi,
I cope with the same issue.
But I've several prod instances and many applications on each of these... and SIR saved by many users.
Of course each prod application have its own ID, distinct from the dev application ID.
Is there really not any kind of solution in my case (apart from release the dev app on the dev workspace ; export 50 apps from it and import those 50 times, maybe more in the futur) ?
I'd be a pity if not, I think there must be a lot of us working in that configuration.
Thanks !

Please help!

Can't install/update Apps via App Store * ios 8.1 iPhone 5s

Hi,
since the ios update 8.1 i can't install or update apps via App Store. I can't even download free apps or do the free updates for installed apps. Have tried to soft reset my phone, tried to outlog and log in again in the app store, turned wlan off and on and tried to download without wlan. Nothing works.
I got an 1 year old iPhone 5s with the new ios 8.1. Never got any problems with the phone before, since this update!
Thanks for your help and greetings,
Falcon2k10

If i click for example on the update button in app store, there is just this ''downloading circle'' and shows loading.. and loading.. and loading and just nothing happens. Also the sympol of the updating app gets grey and there stands ''waiting''.
If i try to download an App, there is the same on the install/download button and there shows up a grey symbol of the app and nothing else happens.
No error message or something else. Just shows that it ''loads'' and nothing happens.

How to stop update notification for one app (iMovie) that I do not want to update

How to stop update notification for one app (iMovie) that I do not want to update. I do not want iMovie 10 taking up nearly 3 gb on my hard disc. iMovie 9 is just fine and only takes up 1.5 gb. But I get notifications to update and don't know how to turn it off. I've gone into the Purchases tab of the App store and deleted it. I don't want to turn off Update notifications (which is irrelevant in any case because I see no option to do that in Notifications system preference pane). I just don't want to be bugged about iMovie updates. The only option I'm given is to postpone the next reminder until the next morning. -- Franklin

Interesting; never came across that - here is the window I get (just double clicked on a random doc in the trash):

How can I view my full billing history for the app and music stores without iTunes installed?

I just received an email receipt from Paypal showing a $12.99 purchase from iTunes. I almost NEVER purchase anything over around five dollars in the app or music store. Since PayPal does not show what this purchase was for, I have not received the receipt from Apple yet, and I cannot find anyway to look up online what this purchase was for....I need help to find out ASAP what this purchase was. If my account has been compromised or if I have been incorrectly charged for something, I would like to get the issue handled immediately. I do not want to install iTunes on my PC (nor should I have to for Pete's sake), but I cannot see anything recent at all in my app or music history on my iPad (not that I would ever purchase anything for $12.99 anyway...I just don't). Thanks in advance for any tips!

No.
