HT1688 Do I have to repurchase apps if I upgrade my phone?

Do I have to repurchase apps if I upgrade my phone?

No. Apps can be downloaded again, or synced to your phone after the upgrade. If by "upgrade" you mean "buy a new phone" then see this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2109

    I have a iphone 3gs. I am considering buying a ipad2, do I have to repurchase apps for the ipad that I purchased for the iphone?

    No, unless there's an iPad version of your App that the developer wants to sell separately.

  • Lost phone. do i have to repurchase apps?

    Hi, I lost my IPhone 4s. I'd like to get a new phone but do i have to repurchase all the apps and songs that i had on my old phone (its been almost 2 months since i backed up my phone and i got some new stuffs within that period).

    I dont think you have to repurchase. Once you enter your Apple ID and password, You will be able to download and install same apps on your new phone. Also I am not sure but may be using your apple Id you can wipe all the datas on lost phone. Hope it helps

  • I'm getting a message that I have 0 bytes available but I have hardly any apps or anything on my phone. Any suggestions

    I'm getting a message that I have 0 bytes available on my IPHone. I have very few apps, just a dozen photos and that's it. Any idea where my space has gone?

    You would lose text message.. But you could always revert back with the backup you made.
    You can import your pics/videos to your computer http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 and then sync it back to your phone via itunes. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4236
    Music/apps/contacts should be in your itunes library.  For contact make sure your sycing it to whatever program you use in iTunes. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1386

  • HT4461 Why do I have to repurchase apps I already own through the Mac App Store to get updates there?

    It's a simple question but I cannot find an answer.  I just know you can't. It makes no sense to not allow us to even purchase an update at a lower cost as opposed to repurchasing the app from the app store at the full cost.  Can anyone say why this is the case? It makes me not want to ever use the app store.

    I get that, but that's not the point.  What I am saying is that the customer experience is poor. It should work the same as it used to when you bought software from a brick and mortar store.
    When you buy an app (software) from a sellers website, you should be able to purchase an upgrade from any vendor. This means even though I bought an app like OmniPlan direct from the OmniGroup... It would be nice to purchase the upgrade, or even download the update from Apple's Mac App Store.
    It just makes for a better customer experience.

  • TS1702 I bought IPhoto app and now it's saying I have to repurchase.

    What do I do to retrieve my IPhoto app I already purchased it and now it say I have to repurchase?

    As long as you are using the same Apple ID that you bought it with you should not have to purchase it again. Sre you signed into the correct ID in Settings>Store?
    Did you tap on the Buy button to see what will happen?

  • How can I get an in app purchase that never synced w/ imac onto comp from my old 3g so that i do not have to 'repurchase' for the 4 (2 apps are groove and doodle buddy)?

    how can I get an in app purchase that never synced w/ imac onto comp from my old 3g so that i do not have to 'repurchase' for the 4 (2 apps are groove and doodle buddy)?

    SO, do I delete the app off of both the old 3g phone AND the imac, then reinstall on ONLY the imac, then re sync?  OR, should I delete off computer, repurchase on computer then re-sync with new iphone4?  I realize this is kind of roundabout, but the issue I ran into was too much stuff on my old 8GB 3G, and I was stuck on iOS3 FOREVER (couldn't upgrade to iOS4) soooo, I deleted a whole bunch of piddly apps from the phone ONLY, which then allowed me to update to iOS4 (on the 3G).  Then, I could sync (which I did, but obviously not everything transferred, b/c when I synced the new 32 GB iphone 4, there are  particular apps {doodle buddy and groove, my tap fish...} that are missing the in app purchases, but these are still on the old 8GB 3G).  I am so confused....

  • I had to restore my ipad2 - do I have to repurchase my apps?

    I had to restore my ipad2 and my apps were lost, do I have to repurchase?

    No, apps can be re-downloaded for free as you as you use the iTunes account that you originally used to purchase them, though you will have to manually find them yourself in the store : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
    Note that when you select the apps you'll see something like the following :
    But you shouldn't be charged - on clicking buy you'll then see :

  • I have purchased (veranda magazines) for my IPHONE which I would like to use on my macbook air. Do I have to repurchase these app or is there some way to get them in my macbook air with no charge?

    i have purchased (veranda magazines) for my IPHONE which I would like to use on my macbook air. Do I have to repurchase these app or is there some way to get them in my macbook air with no charge?

    Veranda Magazine is a free app available for iOS devices in the iOS App Store.  You then purchase a Veranda Magazine subscription from within the app.  In other words, the app itself is free, but the contents are not.
    There is no way to duplicate or import this to a Mac.  Your Mac runs a totally different operating system.
    iBooks can now import to Mac since OS X Mavericks came out about a month ago.  But that does not apply to magazines or iOS Newsstand publications.

  • HT201272 I downloaded funtasticface app and then purchased extra content. I had to reboot my phone(yes I backed it up first) I re downloaded the app but it says I have to repurchase the extras.. help!.

    I downloaded funtasticface app and then purchased extra content. I had to reboot my phone(yes I backed it up first) I re downloaded the app but it says I have to repurchase the extras.. help!.

    - Is the app compatible with model iPod and iOS?
    - Have you tried downloading the app directly to your iPod?  If y are logged into the same itunes account that purchased the app the first time you will not be charged again.

  • Can iPad apps be synced onto MacBook or Do I have to repurchase them

    I have had an iPad for a while and have a good few apps on it. Recently purchased a MacBook and was wandering if there's any way of syncing the iPad apps onto the MacBook or whether I have to repurchase them.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Of course. Just plug the iPad to your MacBook, open iTunes and go to the File menu (on the menu bar) > Devices > Transfer purchases, so your applications will be transferred to the Mac. Note that you can't use the iPad applications on your Mac

  • I purchased an ablum thru itunes on my phone and it says i purchased the songs on itunes but when i go on my music it says i have to repurchase all the songs how can i get the songs with out havin to pay again

    I purchased an ablum thru itunes on my phone and it says i purchased the songs on itunes but when i go on my music it says i have to repurchase all the songs how can i get the songs with out havin to pay again

    Whether you can redownload music depends upon what country that you in. If you are using your computer's iTunes then does music show in the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page (on your phone you might be able to redownload media via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app) ? If music shows there, but not that album, then check to see if it's hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    If you aren't in a country when you can redownload music and it's still on your phone then you should be able to copy it over from the phone via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases.

  • I have purchase some apps on my ipod touch and recently just got an iPhone 4. I was wondering how do I sync the apps from the iTouch to the iPhone.

    Because when I plug my itouch into itunes, and go to the "app" tab, i can't drag the apps onto the left side. So i was wondering if i would have to repurchase the apps that i've bought earlier for my itouch.

    You can make the 'Apps' tab show up below 'Library' by going to: Preferences>General>Show (and then click the checkmark beside 'Apps').
    No, you shouldn't have to re-purchase your apps. If you search "Add apps to iPod touch, iPhone, or iPad" in the iTunes Help menu it should come up with a step-by-step explanation of how to add the apps. You should be able to click on the name of your iPod Touch in the left-hand column (where it shows up when it is plugged in). After you click on it, you should be able to go to the 'apps' tab in the large center-to-right-hand area of iTunes, and click on it. Then you should be able to either click and drag the apps from the left-hand column (under the apps tab, in the center-to-right-hand side of iTunes) onto one of the little 'home screens' at the far right. If you don't want to drag each app individually, there should be an option (checkbox) that you could select which would allow you to sync all apps to your devise.
    I hope that helps. Some of it is a little hard to explain through text.
