How do I purchase an app but not download it now?

There are times when I want to purchase an app on the Mac App Store immediately but don't want to download it at the same time. This happens occasionally when I'm at work on one Mac and need to make the purchase immediately but don't want it to download on that Mac.
How is this possible?
Thank you!

You can only download apps purchased from your Apple ID.

How do I 'purchase' an app without actually downloading it?

I have an MDM software preventing me from downloading apps to the device that aren't approved, but I have access to the App Store. How do I 'purchase' an app without actually downloading it to my device? I just want to save some apps to my iTunes account while the app/s have their deals so I can use them for my iPod later, which I won't have access to until November.

Can't do that. I don't have a personal computer and the computers in the libraries where I am don't allow software to be installed. Is it possible to do from apple.com? Or is it possible to 'purchase' it by clicking install, stopping the download, and erasing it from the device before it finishes installing? (Allowing it to finish installation would trigger my MDM As far as I am aware.)

I buy for mac app but not for the iPad, so how do I reinstall a program that has already purchased? I need help because I bought the imovie'11 but when he opened it only brought 8 movie trailer templates instead of the 15 it says on the program. How do I solve this problem? Once paid for a program incomplete. I also liked that the AppStore itself had a button to reinstall programs already bought, because it is very hard to understand how to do this in the store, only option is to install and hide purchase, and how do I reinstall, attention'm talking about reinstalling a computer mac, not an ipad or iphone.
Thank you.

Prodesigntools.com , go ahead and download the software from there and use your serial number to serialize it.

How do I install purchased apps on ipad2? It says I have purchased the apps but they are not installed.

I have just purchased an ipad2 and purchased 2 apps. This is my first ipad. The ipad says I have purchased these apps but they are not installed. I don't know how to install them. Also I can only see them if I go to either the app store or the game center and click on purchased. I would like them to show up on screen that shows when I open the ipad but maybe that only happens when they are installed?

Did you purchase them directly on the iPad or on your computer's iTunes ? If on your iPad in the App Store app then have you checked to see if they are on a different homescreen by swiping the homescreen to the left ? If they are on a different screen, and there are spaces on the first homescreen then you can move them :
Touch and hold any icon for a couple of seconds until the icons jiggle .
Arrange the icons by dragging them (don't drag too quickly). You can't leave gaps between icons on a page
to move them to a different screen drag them (not too quickly) and then hold them so that they are overhanging the edge of the screen - after a couple of seconds or so the display should change to the next/previous screen (depending on which edge you are holding it) and you can then place the icon.
Press the Home button to save your arrangement.
If you downloaded them on your computer then you can either connect your iPad to your computer and sync them across, or go into the App Store app on the iPad and re-download them via the Purchased tab (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519)
You can download a copy of the iPad manual from here http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad

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.

You may want to improve your backup strategy for your computer...
Login to iTunes, check your purchase history, see if there's the transaction for whatsapp.
Otherwise, contact iTunes support to get the issue straightened out.

Media and apps are not part of the backup. They need to be re-synced from your itunes library or re-downloaded from the store.

For some reason I am unable to download apps. I have downloaded several apps in the past but all of a sudden my I Phone 4S will not download. I have totally reset my entire phone but that didn't work. My account shows that I purchased the app but it just appears as a grey square on my home page. Even tried other apps but nothing. Any suggestions?

but not to 4.2 which doesn't work well with this particular phone?
What are you talking about? 4.2.1, the latest version for the iPhone 3G, works fine - great, even - with it.
