HT204266 app store for 6yr old.

Hi,  I bought a iPad mini for my 6yr old son yesterday.  I set up his own apple ID.  how do I download apps for him?  It tells me that I'm too young to get access. 

Two possible solutions come to mind:
(I don't know if this will work ...) You might try "gifting" the apps you would like him to have from your Apple ID to his.  He would then receive an email with a download instruction and his Apple ID would own the app.
You can obtain the apps using your Apple ID, place them in the iTunes on the computer he will be syncting with, and authorize the computer to use items owned by your Apple ID.  You do that in iTunes on the computer at Store > Authorize This Computer from iTunes' menu.

    2. Select Store->Sign Out
    3. Select Store->Sign In and replace the Apple ID with the one you want to use

  • HT204266 private app store for business

    Dear sirs,
    Our company is planning to develop iPhone/iPad applications for business use.
    May I know whether we can create a 'Private App Store" only used by employee of our company (not using public app store).
    If Apple provide such private App Store for developer or business; please let me know the details with cost. I was not able to find any web-link for this.
    Many Thanks

  • HT204266 Searching The App Store for Specific Apps?????

    Apple products have changed my life for the better. Apple websites?... well let's just say that I find them difficult to use. Take the App Store, for instance, having just purchased an iPad I am interested in purchasing some apps to use on it. Alas when I check out the listings on the App Store I am unable to find the apps I am interested in. First off I am unsure which category to look in...would bird identification guides be listed under sports or reference? I checked both and neither appears to contain the birdwatching guide I am interested in, iBird Pro. Is there any way to conduct a search of the App Store for a particular app? I tried typing iBird Pro into the search window and it found nothing...
    Thanks

    Michael,
    Problem Solved! If you can believe this if you go to the iTunes Store and click on the Browse Apps Store link at the bottom right corner of the page you will be brought to a page displaying the various App Categories (Books, Business, Catalogs, etc). In the upper right hand corner of this page there is a search box. I had typed iBird Pro and then birdwatching into this search box and got the No Suggestions Found error message. Today I spoke with a support person at Apple and together we discovered what the problem is. The search box on this Browse App Store page DOES NOT SEARCH FOR APPS in the App Store, rather it just searches on the Apple site. To search for apps you must do so through the actual iTunes Store site.
    I pointed out to  the rep (a very nice lady) that in labeling the option "Browse App Store" they are leading the viewer to believe that clicking on the link actually brings you to the Apps Store Page and thus should allow you to perform an Apps Search. She allowed as to how she supposed one might think that, to which I replied that it's not exactly "intuitive" to realize that clicking Browse App Store just brings up a dummy/model but non operative site.
    Her reply to this?
    Well it's intuitive now that you know it...
    Bill Gates, are you listening?
    Thanks again for your help.

    I recently updated my primary email address associated with my Apple ID account.
    Now when I go to App store on my iPad it still tries to login to the App store using the old email address I had associated with the account, and naturally my password doesn't work. I can't figure out how to tell my iPad to login using the updated email address.
    So in effect I'm locked out of the app store and I currently have 26 updates waiting.
    I've tried disconnecting and reconnecting my IPad to iCloud with no luck.. However I cloud happens to show the correct/updated email address.
    Does anyone know how to resolve this?
    Thanks

    Did you change the email for the Apple ID or did you create a new Apple ID? A new Apple ID cannot be used with content that was bought using a different Apple ID.

    trying to update apps in the app store. My old apple id comes up. I've already signed in and out off itunes and the app store several times with the current id.  still everytime i try to update the apps the old id comes up

    Apps and their updates are permanently tied to the ID used to purchase them originally.  It will always ask you for your old ID if they were purchased using that ID.  The only way to stop this would be to delete them from your phone and your iTunes library, then repurchase them using your current ID.

    Has it been 24 hours?
    I take it this was a gift card.  iTunes Store:  Invalid, Inactive, or Illegible codes http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1292 - gift cards
    I don't know if this provides an alternative means: https://expresslane.apple.com ; select 'iTunes' in the first column; 'iTunes Store' in the second column
    If you are really desperate you could buy the app yourself, then request reimbursement.

  • What is the proper way to open the app store  for ios

    Using Air3.1 to develope a game.
    I want to have links on my main menu which will open the iOS app store for a specific application.
    The only way I have found to do this is by opening a url "http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=<THEAPPIDHERE>&mt=8"
    However, while this does work, so to speak, when I try to go back to the application, it starts up as if it had crashed... and it does several "redirects" before it get's where it is eventually going.
    Is there a better/proper way to open the app store?
    Cheers

  • TS1702 We use one ID for  the Apps store for 2 iPhones. In the second profile on the Macit is impossible to update apps there is a mistake. What is the decision?

    We use one ID for  the Apps store for 2 iPhones. In the second profile on the Macit is impossible to update apps there is a mistake. What is the decision?

    This happens when you both use the same Apple ID for iMessage.  To fix this you have two choices:
    On one of the phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID.  Note: you can still share the same ID for purchasing in Settings>iTunes & App Stores; or
    On both phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at".  Also uncheck the other phone's phone number, if present.

    Can I upload a simple iPhone App that all it does is direct the User to a Filemaker Pro URL   fmp://~filename.fmp?$VariableName=Value  This launches Filemaker Go and directs the user to the Database Hosted online
    Right now there is no app store for Filemaker Go.   Filemaker Forgot about us.
    So I want to create a simple native iPhone App that all it does
    is launch
    fmp://~/filename.fmp12?$VariableName=value
    This URL will launch the Filemaker Go App
    Filemaker Go is a app that the user will have to have
    downloaded already on the device..
    The Simple Native app will launch the Filemaker Go.
    The fmp  URL has the information where the Filemaker Pro database is hosted
    and get  the user where they need to be..
    Help Me please
    iPhone 5s, iOS 8.1.3

    That would be software. And, you said "upload." That's "uploading software." Why do you question what you stated?
    I don't know where you even want to upload this software. The only way it can be downloaded to a device is through the iTunes store. Do you even know what you want to do?
