I have an iMac and a MacBook. Do I have to pay twice for Pages?

I have an iMac running Lion, and a MacBook running Snow Leopard. I want to buy Pages. Do I have to buy it twice, or can I download it to the iMac and copy it to the laptop? Thanks for any help.

Hi Larry...
No.. you don't have to pay again.
On your Mac running Snow Leopard, make sure it's running at the minimum v10.6.6 to run Pages.
See Pages requirements right side of the App Store windnow under Information.
How to re download apps from the Mac App Store:
Open the App Store. From the menu bar click Store > Sign In
Click Purchases from the top of the App Store window.
Select which apps you want to re download. Then right or control click where you see Installed then click Install.
Make sure and use the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.

I have a iMac and a Mac Air. Do I have to pay twice for MAC OS X Lion?

Do I have to pay twice for MAC OS X Lion for my iMac and MAC Air?

No. You can install Lion on all systems you own from a single purchase. Either copy the installer before you run it on the first system and transfer it to the other system, or purchase and download it on one system, then log into the App Store on the second system go to the Purchased tab and you'll be able to download the installer again without charge.

HT204053 My new HK iPhone will not download apps purchased in U.S. and says I need an HK Apple ID. This creates a second Apple ID and I am concerned that I will have to pay twice for the same app.

Apps previously purchased will continue to operate wherever you are. However; you'll not be able to update them other than by using the original purchase details. What this means is that you can only 'purchase' from a country's store if you have a valid credit card and residence of and in that country.

HT201303 do i have to pay twice for i phone and i mac?

i bought the app "day one" today with iphone and i downroad with my i mac again. (using same ID) and it seems paying twice for same app.
i thought app "day one" can share with iphone and i mac with icloud so.. is it different version? i want to know paying twice is ok or miss.

Apps that run on iOS devices can be shared among all of your iOS devices, but are not shared to the Mac platform. That is a different device and purchased again for the Mac, can be shared among your Macs, though if you have more than one.

How do I keep my husbands apps from appearing on my device? While at the same time sharing content so we don't have to pay twice for music and apps?

How do I prevent my spouse's apps from appearing on my device, and visa versa while at the same time sharing music and apps so that we don't have to pay twice?

Okay. Your personal iCloud account really isn't involved here. If apps purchased on another person's device are automatically downloading to your device, it's because you have Apps turned on under Automatic Downloads in Settings>iTunes & App Store. If you turn it off, the downloads will stop. If desired, also turn off Music and Books to prevent these from automatically appearing on your device when purchased by someone else.
You can then control which of these, if any, you download to your device by selectively download them from your purchased list as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519. As long as everyone is sharing the same Apple ID for their purchases, they will all appear on this list.
As far a music organization, you should be sure all your music is in your iTunes library on your computer. You can then create the playlists you want and sync them to your device using iTunes.

How do I upgrade my MacBook Air with the same IOS as my iMac without paying twice for it?

Hello! I have a question concerning IOS 7 upgrade for my MacBook Air which I have already on my iMac. Know it must be possible without paying twice for it, but I have forgotten how? Can anyone help?

iOS is the operating system for iPhones, iPads, etc.
Mac OS is the operating system for Mac computers.
Which version of Mac OS are you running on your iMac? (You're not running iOS6 on it.)
If you purchased that OS from the app store, then you can download it to as many computers as you own or control (including your Macbook Air). However, if your iMac came preinstalled with the current OS, then the license is only good for that computer and you must buy it for any other computer.

I have photos on my iPad (the first apple device in our household) and then added an iMac and a macbook air. How do I get all of my photos on all devices. Myoriginal iPad has images not on my 2 newer devices and my 2 new devices do not share the same phot

I have photos on my iPad (the first apple device in our household) and then added an iMac and a Macbook air to our network. We have an airport 2TB back up device. How do I get all of my photos on all devices. My original iPad has images that my 2 newer devices do not have on iphoto.

My original iPad has images that my 2 newer devices do not have on iphoto.
How are the images stored on your original iPad? Are they in the camera roll, in events downloaded using the camera connection kit, or are they in albums synced to your ipad from a computer?
If the photos are in the camera roll or in events downloaded from a camera, you can transfer them to your iMac and MBA by directly connecting the iPad using USB. Then you can download the photos to iPhoto like from a camera.
Only, if your photos have been synced to the iPad from a computer, you will have to save them first to the camera roll; then you can download them by connecting the iPad via USB.
What IOS version has your iPad?
For new photos you might consider using Photo Stream to transfer your photos between the devices.

My iPhone 4s will not connect with my home WiFi network. I have ios6 on my phone. I have updated my IMac and my MacBook Pro with iOS 10.8.2. Anyone have any suggestions? It was connecting with no problems prior to updating my two computers.

My iPhone 4s will not connect with my home WiFi network. I have ios6 on my iPhone. The connection was working perfectly before I updated my IMac and my MacBook Pro to ios 10.8.2. I have had ios6 since I purchased the phone a couple of months ago. It searches for a network and finds them, but when it asks for my password, it will not accept the password. Have never had this happen before.

I own an iMac and a Macbook Air and I have iWorks on my iMac. Can I copy it to my Air so that I can use it while working out-of-town? It would not be used on both computers simultaneously.

It depends on how you bought iWork (no 's').
If you bought a single-user retail box or license from the trial, no, you cannot legally install it on another Mac.
If you bought a family pack retail box or licesnce, you can install on up to five Macs in your household.
If you bought it from the Mac App Store, you can install the apps on as many Macs that you have by opening the Mac App Store & clicking on Purchases. Enter your Apple ID & click install.

I believe so. The download is really an install app and never goes to the download older. It executes immediately. This means here is nothing to move to another computer.

There's an Apple help page on the DNS problem - at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3408
The first thing to try is changing your DNS settings - and for that you need to open System Preferences, then the
Network section.
In Network - click on Advanced - then the DNS tab
under DNS servers - use the + button to enter two extra lines
either these, from google dns
8.8.8.8
8.8.4.4
or from OpenDNS
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
then click OK & then 'Apply'
You would need to do that seperately for the Cable (Ethernet) settings and Wireless (Airport)

I have an iMac and a MacBook with Intel Core 2 Duo processors. I realize that this is within the stated requirements for Lion. However was wondering if by migrating to Lion this will result in too much demand on processor resources, thus a slower machine

I have an iMac and a MacBook with Intel Core 2 Duo processors. I realize that this is within the stated requirements for Lion. However was wondering if by migrating to Lion this will result in too much demand on processor resources, thus a slower machine than using Snow Leopard?

Which iMac? Which Macbook? Both have had several model
itertations, even within the framework of a Core2Duo processor.
With that said, I have an early 2009 iMac 24", with 2.66 GHz
Core2Duo with 8 gig of RAM, and in my opinion, seems to be running
smoother and faster with Lion.

Can my husband and I use the same e-mail address/AppleID for our 2 phones, our iMac, and our Macbook?

Can my husband and I use the same e-mail address/AppleID for our 2 phones, our iMac, and our Macbook?
We share an e-mail account and would like to use the same e-mail address for both our phones, as well as our computers at home. Is this possible?
We both have itunes and apple ID's of our own right now, but since getting married, we are deleting these e-mail accounts and sharing one. How can we make this work?

You may use the same Apple ID for iTunes and App Store purchases, but using different iCloud Apple IDs is recommended.
If you use the same iCloud account on your iPhones it will sync all of your contacts, reminders, and notes automatically and it could be a pain. I don't know exactly how you would want to have the iCloud accounts set up on the Macs, because I don't know exactly how you use them. (I am assuming you share?). But you can do whatever you like, you can even keep the same iCloud accounts, etc but you may want to disable the syncing of certain items, because reminders for ones phone popping up on the others automatically would probably get annoying, but that is just me.
