I have re-purchased an app and I still don't have it.

I had purchased a geocache app several years ago and recently noticed it was missing from my touch. After doing a bit of research, I realized I had to update my touch, which I hadn't been doing, assuming this would re-populate the app once i was up to date. I downloaded several updates, getting to 4.2.1 Once this was done, the app didn't "reappear." I figured I'd have to purchase again and did that. I purchased it from my laptop and it shows up in the library there, but when I sync it doesn't appear on my touch. Any suggestions?

Why did you purchase it again?
You can redownload for free:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Did you select the app to sync?
Is the app compatible with 4.2.1?

I purchased an app and it still tells me to purchase it on my iPhone

I cannot get the app I purchased to go to my iPhone. The app is Ruzzle. I purchased it on my iPad

Some apps have separate versions-one called HD usually that is ipad only and a different one for iphone only.
You apparently bought the ipad only version.

I want to update my phone, but i purchased many apps and music on the phone. it won't let me authorize my computer so i cannot update. i don't want to deauthorize all my computers. how can i find out which 5 computers i have authorized?

This is a tedious solution, which is stupid! And some users report an inability to reauthorize a computer after an "en masse” deauthorization. I can’t believe Apple doesn’t provide a list or menu to find out which computers you’ve authorized! Obviously, APPLE knows (or else they couldn’t tell us how many computers we have authorized)--so why can’t they give us access to that information about our own computers??!!!
And for an already-authorized computer with a hard drive that’s since been replaced and upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite, would it be recognized as a “new computer” and require authorization? Would its previous incarnation (i.e., with the old hard drive and OS) be considered a separate computer? Some users report they can’t authorize a computer after an OS upgrade because of that. Can’t believe we have to do such a bass-ackwards kludge!

Hello Sriggers,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you are attempting to update some applications on your iPhone but the payment method was declined. In this situation, I would recommend reading over the information in the attached article to help resolve the situation.

I have purchased an app and then I decided to delete it...but still apple is charging monthly...how can I get rid of this...

It sounds as if you purchased the app, but you also purchased some subscription within the app. You say "Apple is charging monthly", but it's probably the app writer that is charging you monthly for some subscription you purchased within the app. Contact the app vendor and tell them you want to stop the subscription.

I have an app in my app store that is requiring an update but I never purchased the app and when I click update, another apple ID pops up that is not mine. Now i keep getting reminders to update the app and I cant get rid of it from the app store. Help.

You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store notice. For example, if the App Store says you need to update "Twitter," the hacked app may be "Angry Birds" or something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you have to carry out a systematic search.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
In the Finder, press the key combination command-F to open a search window, or select
File ▹ Find
from the menu bar. In the search window, select
Search: This Mac
from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu initially showing Kind. From that menu, select Other...
A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select Raw Query and click OK or press return.
Now there will be a text box to the right of popup menu. Click in that box and paste (command-V).
The search window will show all the App Store products you've installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
At least one of the items listed in the search window is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Test.

Developers control which versions of their app is in the store. If a developer releases a new version and pulls the old version then it will no longer be available in the store.
If you sync the device that has the older app in ITunes on your computer and choose to transfer purchases, you will then have your own saved copy of the app. Then, sync the other device and select to install that app from the list of locally saved purchases.

I have accidently purchased an app, and then a second time as an in app purchase. Both are still pending payment. Can I cancel one?

That's not a good sign if it said it was going to send it to an email address you've never heard of. Contact iTunes Support and let them know this: http://apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

You have a router that assigns IP addresses in sequential order.
Always turn your devices on in the exact same order and you will avoid the message.
It is not a serious problem.
If your router supports DHCP reservations based on MAC address of the devices that will resolve the problem.

I purchased an app and it doesn't appear in my iTunes app list. How do I get it to appear?

I purchased an app and it doesn't appear in my iTunes app list when synced. Where can I find it? How do I get it available for my other iphone and my ipad?

Audiobooks are currently a one-time only download from the store, so if you download it again then you will be charged - I believe that they are all supplied to Apple by audible.com, so I assume that it's them that are requiring the one-time only download.
Is it still on the device that you downloaded it on (if it was on your iPhone then it should be in the Music app), or do you have a copy on your computer and/or on a backup ? If not then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

If I purchased an app and after 90 days it gives me problems can i get my money back

The app worked for 90 days ? Have you tried deleting and (if it's still in your country's store) redownloading the app via the Purchased tab in the App Store app on your phone (or sync it back from your computer's iTunes), and if that doesn't fix it then you've tried contacting the app's developer ?

HT2736 My brother just bought an iPhone 4. He has not set it up, as he doesn't know how. Can I purchase an app and send it to him as a gift.

Just need to know if I can purchase an app and have it sent to my brother's iphone 4. He doesn't know how to set up, hasn't got an email address and hasn't registered with itunes.

You cannot send him anything until he has set up an itunes account and e-mail.
