I am trying to use my iTunes voucher to buy a in-app purchase but when I go to the setting it won't work. It is greyed out and I therefore cannot get the in-app purchase. Please help.

Turn off the restriction you set in Settings > General > Restrictions for In-App Purchases

    How do you turn off in app purchases on imac?

    I'm assuming you mean by using the Mac App Store, if so AFAIK  you cannot turn them off. However if you want to prevent someone from making purchases change your AppleID password and don't give it out. Without the password they cannot make purchases. Either that or you can simply sign out. How you sign out in the Mac App Store is Under Quick Links click Account then click Sign Out. Once you are signed out no purchases can be made.

  • How do you turn off in- app purchasing?

    How do I turn off in-app purchasing? I recently incurred a $30.00 charge for coins on an Ice Age game. Is there a away to block this feature on my ipad?

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    Which is easily remedied in the restriction directly under in-app purchases where the 15 minutes can be changed to immediately, which means that the password is required to authorize every single purchase.

  • How do you turn off in app purchases

    My son was playing the free app download Restaurant Story and made a lot of in app purchases. I don't know how he made the purchases or how you can legally  charge somebody for playing a game that is marked FREE. Does anybody know how to turn off "in app" purchases?

    Assuming this is an iOS device (iPad, iPod Touch, iPhone, etc):
    Find and click on the Settings icon
    Select General from the list on the left.
    Scroll down on the right until you see Restrictions. Click on it.
    At the top, click where it says 'Enable Restrictions'.
    It should come up with a box that says 'Set Passcode'. Enter a 4-digit number (you can use the letters to remember it). Keep it as unguessable as possible, but something you can remember. You'll have to enter it twice to confirm.
    Scroll Down to the 'Allowed Content' section. Turn OFF the slider next to In-App Purchases. It should not show 'OFF'. That will take care of the In-App Purchases problem.
    I highly recommend looking at the other restrictions in the same section - you can restrict Safari, for example, if you want to restrict you kid's web surfing, and set age-level restrictions on music, videos, movies, apps etc. You can also turn off multi-player games and the function for Adding Friends.

    I want my kids to be able to use my iPad, but, they keep making in app purchases without meaning to. No doubt exactly the intention of the developer. Is there a way to turn off in app purchases?

    Yes there is...

  • How do I turn location services on when the option is greyed out?

    I cannot turn the setting on. I have tried adjusting the restrictions settings as well. Help?!?!?!?!?

    I had the same problem.
    Going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset all Settings
    re-enabled the location services.  You'll have to go disable manually the ones you don't want on, maybe to save battery power, but this worked for me.

  • How do I Family Share in-app purchases?

    How do I Family Share in-app purchases?   The free app only allows certain areas to open. An in-app purchase unlocks the full app capability.  I cannot Family Share the in-app purchase. How do I do this?

    There is a way to get around it, as it worked for me!
    I turned on family sharing for my son. Now I have set up an Apple ID account for him too. His ipad was under my Apple ID account but I have since restored the ipad to factory settings, setting it up as his own now (you don't need to do this step, but I chose to do it so everything on his ipad is under his account now).
    When I logged into the App store on his ipad, using his Apple ID account I can access the apps that I have purchased (I being the main account holder). However I had the same issue as you, that I couldn't family share the in-app purchases.
    To get around this on his ipad, I logged off from the app store with his Apple ID account and then logged into it again using my Apple ID account. Therefore I could download the original apps that I had purchased for him + the in-app purchases. Then I logged out of the app store using my Apple ID account and logged in again using his Apple ID Account. Bingo now the full app is on his ipad!
    Then I synced his ipad to the itunes library on my PC, so the apps are now in his library. It would be also wise to do a backup so you don't have to repeat this process again.....
    Cheers

  • HT4009 How to get of Refund In app purchase made in error

    My 6 year old son somehow managed to download £8.17 of in app purchases on sonic dash today!!
    how do I get a refund for these??
    thanks
    chris

    Purchases are considered final, but you can try the 'report a problem' link to contact iTunes Support and see if they will refund or credit you : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption
    To try and stop it happening again you can turn off in-app purchases on your iPad via Settings > General > Restrictions, and you can require your password to be entered for every download.

  • How do i approve my kids app purchases with family share

    how do i approve my kids app purchases with family share on my iphone?

    Hello andrewmarkp,
    With Family Sharing, you can approve purchases with the Ask To Buy feature. The following article provides helpful information:
    Family purchases and payments - Apple Support
    Approving purchases with Ask to Buy
    You can turn on Ask to Buy to require approval for purchases initiated by any family member who is under 18 years old.*
    iOS 8
    Tap Settings > iCloud > Family, and tap your family member's name.
    Turn on Ask to Buy. 
    OS X Yosemite
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences > iCloud.
    Click Manage Family and select your family member's name.
    Select Ask to Buy.
    Ask to Buy is enabled by default for any children under 13 years old, and can be enabled during the setup process for any children 13-17 years old.* You can't turn on Ask to Buy for adults.
    If you don't wish to be billed for purchases initiated by a specific adult family member, you can remove that family member from the family group.
    *Ages may vary by country or region.
    Family Sharing requires a personal Apple ID signed in to iCloud and iTunes. Music, movies, TV shows, and books can be downloaded on up to 10 devices per account, five of which can be computers. iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite are required to set up or join a Family Sharing group and are recommended for full functionality. Not all content is eligible for Family Sharing. Content can be hidden by family members; hidden content is not available for download. Content downloaded from family members or acquired via redemption codes is not subject to Ask to Buy.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Bobby_D

  • How can I turn-off the apps which I have opened once in ISO 7.0.2. In previous version of ISO it was easy to turn- the opened apps by double clicking on home button and then click and hold on respective apps then click on cross sign.

    How can I turn-off the apps which I have opened once in ISO 7.0.2. In previous version of ISO it was easy to turn-off the opened apps by double clicking on home button and then click and hold on respective apps then click on cross sign but in this version I could not do so and my iPad appears slower.

    Close inactive apps
    1. Double tap the home button to bring up the multi-tasking view
    2. Swipe the app's windows upwards to close
    3. The app will fly off the screen
