How do I distribute Pages with Apple Configurator?

In my school we have 15 iPads and I want to install Pages, Keynote, Numbers onto them with Apple Configurator. When viewing the ipad apps in the App Store on my iMac, it doesn't show them as free, but it does if I view them on the app store on an iPad. I purchased the free apps on an iPad so it linked them to my account, and I was then able to download it to my iMac. However, when I try and distribute them using Apple Configurator, it's asking for redemption codes. I can install them fine individually on each iPad, but they're around 1GB in total to download, I'd rather only have to do this once and send them to all iPads rather than downloading it 15 times.
Thanks.

I came across this problem again the other day when I download an app that was free for a limited time.
I've started using Apple Configurator purely for iOS updates and installing a profile containing Wi-Fi settings etc. I have been using iTunes to manage apps which is a lot more powerful. After downloading the apps thtrough iTunes onto my Mac, I can then distribute all of the apps to the iPads via USB (the iPad's are stored in a Griffin small cabinet that acts as as USB hub) and I can manage them all at once. It takes a while to transfer, but its quicker than downloading 5+GB on each iPad, and iTunes allows you to manage app folders as well.

    I've just seen this message for the first time and it's showing on 10 devices.
    What I really love about Apple Configurator is the copious amount of context driven help offered to you.
    "Unable to send ClearPasscode command to device.
    The device was disconnected.
    Check the USB connection to the device."

  • How can I import photos from iPod that is supervised with Apple Configurator?

    I have configured a set of iPod Touches (and iPads) with Apple Configurator. User can take photos. But when the iPods are attached to a PC or Mac (including the Mac they were configured on), no pictures are visible or downloadable. The photos are visible in the Photos app on the iPod. What's happening?

    Anthony,
    I have found a workaround that just worked for me with iPads,
    Connect the iPad to the computer that supervises it, take screen shots (home key and off key pressed together) of the photos as they are displayed in Photos on your iPad and then they will be seen when you launch iPhoto on the host computer.
    It takes some time, but may be worth it, I just took screen shots of about 70 photos and they are now in iPhoto so I can export them now and use them.
    It took me 15 minutes.
    Hope this helps, Darryl

  • I bought an iPad and an iTunes card, I want to buy an application from the Apps store but it only gives me the option of credit card.  How can I buy Pages with my iTunes card to my iPad? thank you

    I bought an iPad and an iTunes card, I want to buy an application from the Apps store but it only gives me the option of credit card.  How can I buy Pages with my iTunes card to my iPad? thank you

    Have you redeemed your iTunes card to an account associated with an Apple ID?
    Once you have your iPad associated with an Apple ID AND you have an account with a credit card associated with the same Apple ID AND you have some 'store credit' (from redeeming your iTunes card) then purchases use the store credit before they charge the credit card, so you should be ok!
    Personally, I use 'store credit' as a way to monitor whether or not there have been any 'unauthorised' purchases because as soon as the store credit is zero, the security code from the credit card is needed for further purchases!  It does mean that I have sometimes to top up store credit before making a purchase, but 'better safe than sorry'!

  • Problems with Apple Configurator and app lock.

    Hello Folks!
    I'm using a bunch of iPod Touch of the 4th generation (iOS 6). I locked them in an app with apple configurator 1.1.2. From time to time I get a message: The guided access is not available any more, contact administrator.
    Reconnecting to the maintance laptop solves the problem.
    How can I prevent this?
    Thanks
    Nils

    I recommend posting in the iPhone or iPad for the Enterprise forums

  • A friend created 3 accounts on his iPhone 5 but forgot the passwords. He can't reset the password as yahoo address is no longer valid. Erasing the phone doesn't solve the issue. How to register the phone with Apple?

    A computer illiterate friend created 3 accounts on his iPhone 5 but forgot the passwords. He can't reset the password as his yahoo address is no longer valid. Erasing the phone doesn't solve the issue as the Apple server identifies the hardware as registered. How to register the phone with Apple?
    I helped him create a new email address and new iCloud account on my Mac but when we try to register the phone with Apple it says: Maximim accounts limit reached for this device. How can he register the phone? I read different threads and found out that only Apple care can do that. We're in Romania and don't know where to call. Any suggestions on how we fix this?

    When I checked the support site for Romania, you apparently don't have an Apple Care contact center.  You "may" try calling the US Apple care number to verify the account and have the password reset sent to a different email address.  800-694-7466

  • How to populate a page with images in across/down direction?

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how to populate a page with images in across and down direction (for example 6 X 6 )? It seems that I cannot use data table because records are only running downward and each row can have one record.
    Any suggestion would be appreciated. thanks.

    Alex,
    You can create your own tabular form using APEX_ITEM API's
    Create report and you can put similar code to following
    SELECT APEX_ITEM.TEXT(1,col1) pk1, APEX_ITEM.TEXT(2,col2) pk2 FROM your_tableSo data will be displayed in TEXT boxes as if it's a tabular form. Now you need to handle INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE processes manually. You can easily handle INSERT and DELETE. But handling UPDATE can be a nightmare. What if user has updated both the column values?
    Updated details
    One way out would be to use ROWID as Primary key to handle DELETE and UPDATE
    SELECT APEX_ITEM.CHECKBOX(1,ROWID) tick, APEX_ITEM.TEXT(2,col1) pk1, APEX_ITEM.TEXT(3,col2) pk2 FROM your_tablebut yet I suggest to go for proper primary key..
    Regards,
    Hari

    how to create wireless vlans with different configuration in network?
    device use only :

    switch 2960 = 1

    Posted by WebUser ???? ?????????? from Cisco Support Community App

    in this case we don't have enough budget t get WLC device....mybe use the autonomous ap....i use the linksys wireless routes as AP that connect to switch and create the VLANs 10 and VLANs 20 in the switch 2960, the switch connect to router 1841 that will ensure vlan connect each other.
