HT201304 The app updates are free why can't I get them other free apps ?

I would like the updates on some apps I have and to down load a new free one. I don't have money for an iTunes card right now and no money. So shouldn't I still be able to get these things ?

If None is not available - On your computer launch iTunes and click "iTunes Store" in the left navigation pane. Click the "down arrow" next to your name at the top right side of the page and click "Account." Enter your username and password and click "View Account" to log into your account information. Next to your Payment Type, click "Edit." Select the "None" button and click "Done." Confirm that your card has been removed by returning to the Apple account information screen. Under Payment Type, it should say that there is no credit card on file.

  • I just bought a used MacBook Pro 13inch retina late 2013, which was originally bought in December, but for some reason neither the iWork or iLife suit seem to be free as advertised by Apple. Can I still get them for free?

    As the title says, I thought that both suites are supposed to be free. Am I wrong or is there some way to still get them for free?
    Many thanks for answers!

    If the computer is registered with Apple as new from December 2013, then if you search for the apps to "buy" (Pages, Keynote, Numbers, iMovie, iPhoto, Garageband) in the App store, it SHOULD give you the price as FREE.  If it does not, I suggest you contact Apple and ask their advice.
    This is what Apple say about eligibility for iWork and iLife for free:

    The only possible "glitch" in this is that you were not the original purchaser.  Speak to Apple and see what they say - they may be willing to facilitate the download for you.

  • After downloading the new update for Firefox I can no longer get Firefox to respond. I can only get it to respond in safe mode. Why?

    After downloading the new update to Firefox I cannot get Firefox to respond. The only way I can use Firefox is in Safe Mode.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I updated to new version of Firefox

    Cannot believe NO ONE from Firefox is responding to this issue; particularly since I don't seem to be the only one with the problem!!!!

  • Why can't I get sounds on my apps?

    I can't get any sounds on my apps I CAN get sounds on my music only time I get sounds on my apps is with headphones

    Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the Music and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
    Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute/unmute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad above the volume switch, or via control centre : swipe up from the bottom edge of the screen and it's the right-most of the 5 icons in the middle of it (if the icon is white then it's 'on', tap it to turn it grey and 'off').
    The function that isn't on the side switch is set via control centre instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

  • The bar icon for downloading that appears next to "trash" and the "bootcamp" icon are gone.   How do I get them back?

    This format confuses me.   I intended to simply ask a question but then this discussion window opened up and my question appears as though it were a topic.
    Can we ask a question without beginning a discussion?   Then I am chided for trying to post a "blank message".   I am only asking a question.   What is all this talk of messages anyway?
    My question is:   The icon next to "trash" that shows downloading is gone.  The bootcamp icon is also gone.   How do I get them both back.
    Thanks

    Welcome,
    If you are refering to the Dock Icon which showed you your Downloads folder then open a Finder Window on your Home folder and drag the Downloads folder to the dock. It will create an Icon for the folder.
    Not sure about the Bootcamp icon, don;t use it but if there is a Bootcamp folder the procedure should be the same.
    regards
    BTW Starting a discussion is the same as asking a question.

  • Backup caused contacts to disappear. Why can I not get them back?

    I was asked for my apple password to complete a backup. After I entered the password my contacts disappearred and I am unable to get them back on my iPhone from either the Verizon website or from the Apple iCloud site. How can I get them back without having to reenter them from scratch.

    If you generate a new sync key then all data stored on the Sync server is reset, so you can't retrieve it anymore.
    The sync key is used locally to encrypt your data before sending it to the sync server, so you should always backup this key to a safe location.

  • Why can't I get Applications and free music from itune stores from Nigeria?

    There are lots of my friends who are getting frustrated with their iPhones and iPads because we cannot get most of the applications, music to buy or download even though we have valid paying systems. The annoying information you get is the items are not available in Nigerian stores. What is the way out on this?

  • Well i have the apple care plan for my iphone and i lost my headphone what do i do to get another pair? Can i still get them for free?

    I would greatly appreciate any help with this thank you!

    I'm afraid you will have to buy another pair.  Apple Care is an extended warranty, it does not cover Theft, Loss, Damage by user.

  • WHY CAN'T I GET ON OTHER SITES?!?!?!!

    My boyfriend just paid the bill on Saturday. I'm still getting overage charges and notifications of it and I can't get onto any other website aside from this and Facebook. Keeps saying that it can't find the server... What's wrong with this phone or the service?!?!?!

    have you tried removing and readding the e-mail account? sometimes settings get corrupted or changed on the server end...something computers can sometimes handle better than the mail interface.

  • Trying to update The Age and also eBay (both Australian app) using my Australian iTunes ID, and it says I must switch to the US store? All other app updates are fine??? Help!!

    As above, I have been trying to update The Age newspaper app which I have been using for ages- it's an Australian app and I have an Australian iTunes ID. It's wont let me update and says my account is invalid and I must switch to the US store? This also happens when trying to update my eBay app?? All my other app updates are fine?? Why is it ding this and how do I get around it?? I don't want a US iTunes account and shouldn't have to get one just to update this app???
    Thanks
    Lucy

    Hi, Lucy.
    This is a tricky one and I could see where it could be an issue as this App is also available in the US store.  I would recommend making sure it is in your purchases via the article below on your computer.  If so, try deleting the application from your iPhone or iPad and download it again free of charge via the purchased section in the App Store.  Also, see if you can update the application on your computer and sync it over.

    Hi bunjamin,
    just go to BlackBerry World, and update all your apps including BBM.

    you can turn off the magnifying glass :

    you can deactivate the "reset to Hub view" :
    hub >> overflow (bottom right button) >> Settings >> Display and actions >> Return to Default View When Idle >> OFF

  • I bought the photoshop touch app for my phone. Why can't I get it on my iPad also?

    I bought the photoshop touch app for my phone. Why can't I get it on my iPad also?

    There are two different versions of PS Touch that, even though they are similar in function, serve different form factors. One is for tablet (landscape orientation) and one is for phone (portrait).
    I guess one could argue why Adobe didn't make it so that orientation didn't matter and would adjust accordingly (a la SketchBook Pro) but you'd have to ask the developers that.
