HT201304 If you set restrictions to on for your ipad or iphone & you set the password restriction to immediately for in-app purchases will it ask you for your password every time you make a purchase over a certain time period or just the first time you us

I am setting restrictions on my iphone and my ipad for my four year old son as he somehow purchased an app for $99 unbeknowst to me.
Does anyone know if you set your restrictions to ON, there is a setting that is called "Require Password" and there are two choices to choose from
"immediately" or "15 minutes". What I want to know is if my son asks me to purchase an app that costs $1 and I let him purchase it. Be entering my passcode
will it not ask him for any future purchases or an in-app purchase where they tend to rip you off. I want to ensure that it asks for a password every single time anything is purchased whether it is an in-app purchase or an app. I am unsure what the difference is between choosing immediately or 15 minutes on this specific Restrictions setting. Thank you.

Settings>General>Restrictions>Allowed Content>In-App Purchases>Off. Then: Settings>General>Restrictions>Allowed Content>Require Password...set this to "Immediately".
Doing the above will accomplish what you want.

Why am i charged twice from both my apple account and my credit card each time i make a purchase?

Why Apple is deducting money two times from both my apple account and my credit card each time i make a purchase?

Hey shawnilory,
Thanks for the question. The duplicate charges you see may actually be authorization holds. To review the actual charges on your account, you can see your iTunes Purchase history as outlined by this resource:
iTunes Store & Mac App Store: About payment card authorization holds
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3702
To review the actual charges on your account, see your iTunes Purchase History. You will be asked to enter your iTunes account name and password. (You can only see Mac App Store web order details in your iTunes purchase history.) Your Purchase History will display your most recent purchases first. To view details of any purchase, click the arrow to the left of the order date.
If you have questions about the way your financial institution handles authorization requests, contact their customer service department.
Thanks,
Matt M.

ITunes keeps prompting me to reenter the security code for my credit card each time I make a purchase

ITunes keeps prompting me to reenter the security code for my credit card each time I make a purchase, saying my Windows 7 PC is a new device. However, the PC is on iTune's list of authorized devices for downloads. What's causing this? I do block cookies etc on browsers.

I don't know. No, it doesn't use your browser. Perhaps you should call and find out what the problem is.

If I use the same iCloud account for my ipad and iPhone, will changes I make on one change on the other as well? I'm not sure of the advantage of using teh same iCloud for both devices.

If I use the same iCloud account for my ipad and iPhone, will changes I make on one change on the other as well? I'm not sure of the advantage of using teh same iCloud for both devices.

No, it only mirrors changes to synced data. This includes mail, contacts, calendars, reminders, safari bookmarks, notes, iWork documents and data, and photo stream photos (assuming you choose to sync all this data). Changes to iTunes data such as music, apps, podcasts, etc., are not synced using iCloud. In your example, if you delete an app from one device it will remain on the other until deleted there too.

I have an apple ID which I use to sign into icloud for my iPad and iPhone.But when I use the same ID for setting up iCloud on my Macbook it says INCORRECT ID or password, try again. I tried changing my passwords but it does not work for the macbook.

You will have to provide the correct password to delete the existing account, if you have tried but are not getting the password reset email, contact Apple for assistance by going to https://expresslane.apple.com, then click More Products and Services>Apple ID>Other Apple ID Topics>Lost or forgotten Apple ID password.

How do you not share contacts on your iPad and iPhone when sharing an apple ID, How do you not share contacts on your iPad and iPhone when sharing an apple ID

How do you not share contacts when having an iPad and iPhone when you share an apple ID

Presumably you mean you are sharing the same iCloud account? Except for turning off contacts on one of the devices, you can't stop sharing contacts. iCloud accounts are not designed to be shared among different people with different personal data.
You should each gave your own personal iCloud account, setup under your own individual AppleID.
You can still use the shared AppleID for the iTunes and AppStore purchases you already have though.

Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."

Then repair the backup/TM drive.

Since downloading iOS 7, I have been having trouble purchasing music from iTunes Store. When ever I try to make a purchase I always get the message "Your account is not valid in the US store"

Since downloading iOS 7, I have been having trouble purchasing music from iTunes Store. When ever I try to make a purchase I always get the message "Your account is not valid in the US store" As I am new at this I don't know what I can do to remove this problem.

What country are you in ? If you aren't in the US and the address on your account isn't in the US then try going to the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app on your iPad and tap on your account id, tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account, and then select the Country/Region section and select your country.

when i unchek the card information it was show me an error!

Though you are being asked for card details it doesn't necessarily mean that the card will be charged for the purchase (unless you want to gift content). Have you tried entering your card's details to confirm the account ? You should then be able to remove it.
From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5582 :
When making purchases, content credits are used first, followed by Gift Certificate, iTunes Card, or Allowance Account credits; your credit card or PayPal account is then charged for any remaining balance
Is it a new account ? If it is then unless a new account is created by following the instructions on this page (the instructions won't work with existing accounts) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
then you will need to enter card details (debit cards are no longer accepted in all countries) before the account can be used to download any item from the store.

I bought "Pages" "Keynote" and "Numbers" Apps for my iPad and iPhone

I bought "Pages" "Keynote" and "Numbers" Apps for my iPad and iPhone and now I have a new iMac but the Apps didn't install? I thought when you bought an App that is on one device it would be available on all other devices? The App store is now wanting me to pay for the Apps again? Is this right? Do I have to buy another version of these Apps for the iMac?

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico my first language is Spanish. I do not speak English, 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.
That is determined by what type of disk that it is. It may be a disk that only allows you to install Windows on your Dell computer and would not allow Windows to be installed on a Boot Camp partitition or as a virtual machine in an app such as VirtualBox on your Mac. If that is the case, you would need to purchase a retail Windows install disk.

I have an iPhone 4s. Today I went on to my calendar app to find everything deleted from it. Then I went to make a phone call and every single one of my contacts has gone from my phone. Can I get them back and how?

Whoa whoa no need to go restoring stuff yet, once you've done that check to verify you have done what Overlook2011 IF that doesn't work for calendars ensure your default account for calendars is set to iCloud and in calendars that it is told to "Show all calendars"

IMovie for my iPad and iPhone will not export movies how do I fix this?

iMovie for my iPad and iPhone will not export movies how do I fix this?

Same here. Have exported a handful of movies before..faced this issue for the first time a few days ago. What footage are you trying to edit and export? (E.g. Shot with camera app, other social media apps like Snapchat, Vine, Instagram?)
I did some troubleshooting..
I was putting together all saved videos from Snapchat.. no luck. Export screen comes up, but progress bar doesn't move.
Mixed some footage in there shot with actual iPhone camera app.. no luck.
Removed all Snapchat footage.. it worked straight away.
BUT ... it would make sense if I didn't just compile a bunch of Snapchat vids a few weeks ago and export them just fine?
So it's something to do with the actual footage I assume?

Advice on improving graphics for app for both iPad and iPhone

I am creating an app for both iPad and iPhone 4 and it looks terrible on the iPhone 4.
I have created the Flash File in Flash CS5.5 IDE with Movie Size 1024 x 768 and I am using the following AIR for IOS settings:
Rendering: CPU
Device: iPhone and iPad
Resolution: High
All my graphics are vector so I assumed that it would look crisp on both devices. It is not as perfect looking on the iPad as it appears on my PC monitor but I can live with it. I can't however live with the iPhone 4 appearance.
I am therefore seeking advice on how to improve the iPhone 4 appearance.
As far as I am aware, there is not a way to use 2 sets of graphics, one for each device. Please correct me if this is wrong and it would offer me a solution.
Would doing all the graphics as PNG be a solution?
Btw I am using AIR 3.2 SDK if that has any relevance and my graphics are static.
Thanks in advance.

Thank you for the swift reply Colin. I do not recall setting a stage.quality setting - is the default setting low?
I did a quick google search and see this appears to be the code I need. I assume I put this in the first frame of my Flash movie?
stage.quality = StageQuality.MEDIUM;
Thanks
Paul

How do I transfer all my music, apps contacts etc for my iPad and iPhone to my new laptop from a desktop?

I can't update the software on my desktop because it's too old and no stores seem to have the "bridge" disc I need to upgrade my current system. So, I need to transfer my synch abilities for my iPad and iPhone from my desktop to my newer, more up-to-date laptop. What is the best way to do this? I have the apple base station also.
