HT201304 Restrictions:  Allowed content: In-App purchases on or off?  Very ambiguous!

Ive read in two places two different answers!  one says it should say "off" to restrict purchases the other says it should say "on"
I want to make sure that there are no in-app purchases made by my son who seems to think that virtual dragons should be fed, so ive put the setting for In-App purchases to "off" is that correct?
thanks Vicky

You turn off the item to Off to set the restriction.  The Restrictions section say "Allow:" You want it "off" to not allow. I just tested that with Safari.

  • I turned restrictions on for in app purchases, I've turned them off via my iPhone but it won't turn them off on my ipad

    HI, I turned on restrictions to stop in app purchases, I've now turned them off on my iPhone using my code but it's still on, on my ipad (on the same user) the code won't work on the ipad so I'm really confused as I've not touched the restrictions on the actual ipad itself just through my phone. Can someone help?!? Thanks

    Restriction settings do not sync across devices.
    The iPad has a restriction code that is different to that of the iPhone. Someone set it up there, and it has nothing to do with the iPhone.
    If you don't remember what it is, then the only way to remove it, is to restore the iPad to Factory Condition.
    If you have a backup made before the restriction passcode was put in place, you can restore to that.

  • HT201304 How to deleted my app purchase?

    I hate my family and/or friends downloading app purchase in my ipad2. I wondering how can I deleted my app in purchase?

    Hello Courtney,
    You can prevent your family and friends from installing apps or in-app purchases on your iPad by enabling the restrictions for these features:
    Using Restrictions
    You can enable and adjust Restrictions on your device to prevent access to specific features or content on the device.
    Tap Settings > General.
    Tap Restrictions.
    Tap Enable Restrictions and enter a passcode. The passcode will be required to make changes to these settings or to disable Restrictions. Note: If you lose or forget a restriction passcode, you will need to perform a factory restore to remove it.
    You can restrict access to the following applications and features on the device:

  • Expanded content in-app purchase of $4.99 installs but is never available (does not work), endless loop of "restore content".

    Once I upgraded o Mavericks (10.9.4) and GarageBand (10.0.2) I saw the offer for additional content – 200 sounds, 2,000 loops, 15 drummers... – and made the purchase per this article: Expanding GarageBand for Mac (v10.0) content with an in-app purchase
    After downloading the content, system asked for my log in, went through the install, but alas, the content is nowhere to be found.
    GarageBand menu, "Restore Purchases" available.
    Choose Restore Purchases
    GB downloads 10G
    OS requests log in for installation
    OS performs installation (no crashes, no problems)
    But then content is not there and "Restore Purchases" is still available in the GarageBand menu. I've read the threads about the download crashing (which happened to me once), but this is different. I've tried resetting permissions, and now I've just installed a brand new SSD drive, fresh install of Mavericks and GB, and got the same problem.
    Unless I am missing something, content is nowhere to be found. Any help would be appreciated.
    "Restore Content" always available:
    Where are the 40 lessons?
    Where are the 17 additional drummers:

    Your last screenshot is showing that the purchase installed:
    You have more than the one drummer "Kyle". You can switch between different drummers by clicking the portraits "Rose" Curtis", Berry" and the genre menu, to bring up different drummers.
    "Restore Content" always available:
    This will always be available, so you can reinstall, if need be.
    Where are the 40 lessons?
    The in-app purchase does not download the lessons, but enables you to buy them for free. Sign into the Lesson Store, to download the lessons you want. It should now be possible.
    Select "File > New" and then select the Lesson Store.
    200 sounds, 2,000 loops, 15 drummers...
    The 200 sounds will be visible, depending on the selected kind of track.
    You will see 2000 loops, if you disable the default "Keyword Browsing > Filter for more relevant content" in the GarageBand Preferences > Loops panel and set the the menu at the top of the Loop Browser to "Loops" and "Scale > Any"
    What do you see, when you set the Loop options this way?

  • Is there any program which allows a gaming app purchased through itunes to be played on a laptop?

    I purchased a slot app through itunes for my iphone.  Is there any program which allows this app to be played on my laptop?  What does imatch do?

    If you mean iTunes Match, that is strictly for Music. iOS applications cannot be run on a Windows machine (entirely different operating systems). Check the app developers web site to see if they offer a windows version. There may be an app/Windows application pair that allows you to access the iPhone from the PC in teh app store, but I'm not aware of one.

  • HT201304 I can't in app purchases can some help me figure this out?

    Everytime I try to make an in app purchese it keeps telling me that my purchase could not be completed.  Is anyone else having this problem and if you are how do I fix it?

    Thanks for the suggestion - after someone else reproduced the problem on their MacBook Pro, I submitted a bug report. It's not a big deal, but this should probably be fixed.

  • 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.
