How do I require a password between every app purchase on my iPad?

How do I require a password between every app purchase? I'm trying to avoid having my son make purchases without my consent.

See if you have something in your settings that shows Profile. Settings>General>Profiles.
Important: Restrictions can also be enabled or enforced using a profile (typically installed when using the device for business or education purposes). You can check for installed profiles in Settings > General > Profiles. For additional information, contact the administrator or the person who installed the profile.

Thank you for the help, have sorted it through Restrictions in General settings now : )
No more mysterious app purchases on my c.card now thank god !!
You would think they would set as default that Password was required - Imediatly . But they know there likely to get more purchases the way the default set it..
Thanks again for prompt reply!!!

Can I choose to require a password for ANY App purchase?

The options seem to be all or nothing. Either I can enable or disable apps. I also noticed the "disable in game purchases". This blocks some, but it does NOT block the purchases where there is a link in a children's game for example. That still results in it opening up the App Store. Then I can purchase and install. I just want it to ask for a password every time I go to buy an app. Is this possible?? It seems to ask for a password sometimes, but not always.

This is a problem that has been highlighted by a leading consumer programme in the UK. Even if the App Store is set to ask for a password on purchasing, if the time is quite short (don't know exactly how many minutes) between purchases then there is no password prompt.
This has led to many users facing large bills because their children have bought a lot of in-game credits thinking they were just some sort of free part of the game.
I believe this is being looked into.

Since upgrading to Mavericks my Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro requires administrative password on every launch--whats with that?

Since upgrading to Mavericks my Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro requires administrative password on every launch which seems like an unnecessary step. Does anyone know why this is happening and what can be done to eliminate this?

Download and run the combo updater to refresh your files.
OS X Mavericks 10.9.3 (Update (Combo)

Open Disk Utility and run Repair Permissions
You might need to remove and reinstall Acrobat. Be sure you are in an admin account when installing.

Acrobat 7 requires admin password at every launch for non admin users?

acrobat 7 requires admin password at every launch for non admin users?
any one with a solution or similar problem?
thanks for any help.

I've been avidly following all of the threads regarding this issue...yet none of the solutions have worked for me. I've got 11 Mac users that do not use the Creative Suite..only Acrobat, Quark, etc. I've tried installing and re-installing through both Admin and User accounts, I've tried the AdobeBib XML change, I've tried enabling Root and installing, changing permission on the Acrobat folder, etc. all to no avail. I still get asked for Admin Authentication every time Acrobat and Distiller are opened (except on the Admin account side). This is happening on one particular Mac (G4, 1GB Ram, OS 10.4.3) for both Acrobat Standard 6 and 7 as well. The biggest issue that also happens in tandem with the Acrobat installs is the inability to print from Quark. I get the following error when printing: "The process "pictwpstops" terminated unexpectedly on signal 6." Because of the necessity to print Quark documents, I have uninstalled all Acrobat on the machines until we can get a fix. This resolves the printing problem with Quark. The only option left is to set up all users as Admin accounts - which I really do not want to do. Any other suggestions out there? I've got more information available if needed.

How can i get separate passwords between Apple and iCloud?

how can i get separate passwords between Apple and iCloud?

There the same account at this point so theres no way to segragate the password.
You could however make an icloud email address that is different then your primary apple ID that you use for messaging and itunes and apps stores but at this point you cant undo the password merge.

How to remove Apple ID password when updating apps?

This may be a stupid question but my iPhone asks me for a password for every App I update unless I click Update All then it will only request my apple id once.
Anyway, how can I get rid of this?

Thanks for the reply. I've managed to find it myself, settings - general - restrictions was turned on and it stated require password immediately.

IPad did not require password for in app purchase after two days

I just made an in-app purchase on my iPad and was not prompted to enter my account password. I checked my settings and it was set to require a password after 15 minutes. The last time I entered my password to make a (free) purchase was two days ago! I've now disabled in app purchases as a precaution.
Is this a bug in iOS 8? It asked for a password every 15 minutes in iOS 7.

Even after disabling in app purchases (General > Restrictions) and setting the password requirement to 'immediately', I tried another in app purchase (for a smaller amount) and again it went straight through without asking for a password.

Everytime I update my music, my apps are being reinstalled so I have to submit my username and password in every app all over again.

Everytime I update my music, my apps are being reinstalled so I have to submit my username and password in every app all over again.

Everytime when you sync your iPhone to iTunes , have you authorize your account? Authorize account will be required if you have one or more apple device that sync with the same iTune. You can authorize your apple account by signing the apple account in iTunes. Hope it help.

Repeatedly asking for Apple ID Password with every app update iOS7

Since I updated to iOS7, I have to type in my password for every app update. I don't want to auto-update all the apps; I like an older FB app. How can I get my phone to remember my password like before in the app store?

I encountered this on my son's iPod Touch. I tried an 'Update All', but since he has one or two apps from his sister's Apple ID and she wasn't here to enter her password (which stopped the whole process!) I wanted to just update the other apps (purchased on my Apple ID). However, since there wasn't an option to skip an app, it seemed the only way to update the others (around 50 apps) was to click on all the update buttons individually. That would have been annoying enough, but fancy being asked to type in my password for every… single… app!
Absolute madness. Does Apple not think through these things anymore? They used to pay such careful attention to little details of the user experience. Very frustrating.
