I read that I can have iworks for free on my iPad if I own a copy for my computer. Is this correct, and how do I download it without being charged?

There really is nothing more to say than what Allan has already said, but to explain just a little further, what you may have read is that once you purchase an iOS app in the app store, you do not have to purchase it again if you need to download it to another iOS device. In other words once you buy the app, you can load it onto unlimited iPhones, iPod Touches or iPads.
You must be using the same iTunes account that you originally purchased the app with in order to download it again. But as Allan said, just because you have it on your Mac does not entitle you to download it free to your iPad.

    Sorry, but that opportunity has long passed. Your options now are:
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
             7. Xserve (Early 2009)
         Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps - App compatibility and feature support for OS X & iOS.
         Am I eligible for the free upgrade?
             See Apple - Free OS X Mountain Lion upgrade Program.
         For a complete How-To introduction from Apple see Apple - Upgrade your Mac to OS X Mountain Lion.

  • I have a 21" iMac that only boots as far as a folder icon with a question mark in it.  Anyone know what this means and how to fix it?

    I have a 21" iMac that only boots as far as a folder icon with a question mark in it.  Anyone know what this means and how to fix it?

    It usually means your OS has corrupted files. You need to reinstall OS X.
    If you are using Snow Leopard:
    Reinstall OS X without erasing the drive
    Do the following:
    1. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    2. Reinstall Snow Leopard
    If the drive is OK then quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed with reinstalling OS X.  Note that the Snow Leopard installer will not erase your drive or disturb your files.  After installing a fresh copy of OS X the installer will move your Home folder, third-party applications, support items, and network preferences into the newly installed system.
    Download and install the Combo Updater for the version you prefer from support.apple.com/downloads/.
    If you are using Lion:
    Reinstalling Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button.

    Another rep said pay 8€ we will send an email telling you what to do with the code in the email all via iTunes again. No email or code received. What a mess.
    You're being lied to. There is no code. The unlock process is summarized as follows:
    You request an unlock from the carrier
    Your carrier enters the request into their system
    time passes...and passes...and passes
    Eventually someone at the carrier approves the request
    The approved request is sent to Apple
    It goes into a queue at Apple
    Eventually (usually 1-2 days) Apple updates their activation database to show the phone as unlocked
    You then connect the phone to iTunes on your computer and click the "Restore iPhone" button in iTunes
    If the request has been processed, when the Restore is complete you will get a message "Congratulations. Your iPhone is unlocked"

    There is one specific number who cannot receive texts from me, yet i can get their texts and we both have a galaxy s5, what could be the issue?

        haeuedb, let's figure out what is going on. There are a few more things I'd like to confirm. First, do you know if either of you are o the latest software version? http://vz.to/1BguEHF. Next I'd like to try putting your S5 in Safe mode. Try those out and keep us posted on your efforts. Thank you for your continued patience.

    You are using PPPoE but there is no server to authenticate against.. or the modem is already connected and nothing else can join.
    Is this ADSL?
    Do you have the modem in bridge?
    How does it work with the modem working as router? ie what type of connection does your ISP supply.. eg PPPoE is only one.. PPPoA is another.. IPoA or ETHoA.. and sever other more specialised.. PPPoE can only work where it is supported.

  • HT1660 I'm getting a message that reads 'The iTunes Library file cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation." Why is this? And how can I fix it?

    I'm getting a message that reads 'The iTunes Library file cannot be saved. You do not have enough access privileges for this operation." Why is this? And how can I fix it? I'm worried that I'm going to lose my entire library because of this.

    A belated reply, as the problems itunes has have discouraged me from using it much. If you uncheck the "read only" box, it doesn't stay that way! Next time you use it, the box comes up checked.
    I'm still having that problem, even when I open iTunes as administrator.
    I've yet to see the answer to this problem. I use itunes mostly to download audiobooks, and I'm ready to download more, and want to save them!

  • I have loads in my reading list.  Is there anyway of printing this list so that I can highlight/look for things that I might have forgotten about?

    I have saved so many pages in my reading list and I would like to go the old fashioned route and print them out so that I can have a good look at the title or one liner and see which ones I want to go back to first. Should I have book marked them rather?

    In that case you are better off using Bookmarks.
    Go to a (reading list) website you want to bookmark.
    From the Safari menu bar click Bookmarks >  Add Bookmark
    You can create a new folder for those bookmarks ...
    Click the Bookmarks icon top left side of the Safari toolbar.
    Click + bottom left corner of that window.
    Then name the folder.
    Each time you add a new bookmark select that folder from the Add Bookmark pop up menu.

  • HT201209 I went onto my computer and set up an account...I entered my gift cards where it said redeem and there is $40 on my account.  However,I have no idea how to use it.  I read that I can take my credit card out and just use the itunes card but again

    I went into the computer and set up my account, I then went to where you enter the gift card info to redeem the money and my account says I have $40...however, when I go and try to use it I can not figure out how to do so.  I also read that I can remove my credit card info and just use Itune cards...but again i can not figure out how to do this. 
    This is very frustrating because something so simple is turning into an all day fiasco!

    Hello Brod1,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing.  The iTunes Store will automatically recognize the credit you applied.  You can find the details of how iTunes Store purchases are billed below:
    Order of iTunes billing methods
    When making purchases, content credits are used first, followed by Gift Certificate, iTunes Card, or Allowance Account credits; your credit card or PayPal account is then charged for any remaining balance.
    When you buy individual songs from the iTunes Store:
    Free song credits are redeemed first.
    If you have no free song credits, gift certificate, prepaid card, and allowance credits are used next.
    If your gift certificate, prepaid card, and/or allowance credit is less than the total cost of the purchase, your credit card is billed for the remaining balance.
    If you have no free song credits or gift certificates, prepaid cards, or allowance credits, your credit card is billed for the songs you buy.
    When you buy an album on the iTunes Store:
    Gift certificate, prepaid card, and allowance credits are used first.
    If your gift certificate, prepaid card, or allowance credit is less than the total cost of the purchase, your credit card is billed for the remaining balance. Note: Free song credits cannot be used for album purchases.
    If you have no gift certificates, prepaid cards, or allowance credits, your credit card is billed for the albums you buy.

  • I just downloaded iCloud on my PC and noticed that fewer than half of my photo stream photos have transferred over to my PC.  Why is this happening and how can I get the remaining photos?  All of my devices are charged and have perfect internet signals.

    I just downloaded iCloud on my PC and noticed that fewer than half of my photo stream photos have transferred over to my PC.  Why is this happening and how can I get the remaining photos?  All of my devices are charged and have perfect internet signals.  Thanks in advance for any tips and insights!

    It's probably happing because photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days (even though your last 1000 photos will remain on your devices until deleted).  When you enabled photo stream on your PC you would have only received photos from the last 30 days.
    To transfer older photos to your computer, create a shared photo stream that contains them and invite yourself as a subscriber (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmc0cd7e99).

  • I would like to buy an iPhone for my friend in Iceland.  Two questions: will the phone work with complete utility in Iceland, and if so, what should I do to confirgure it while in the USA so that it can have full utility in Iceland?

    I would like to buy an iPhone for my friend in Iceland.  Two questions: will the phone work with complete utility in Iceland, and if so, what should I do to confirgure it while in the USA so that it can have full utility in Iceland?

    Bad idea. There are no supported iPhone carriers in Iceland, thus some features may or may not work. Further, there will be no warranty or support for a US purchased iPhone in Iceland...your friend will be on their own. If you still want to go down this road, make sure you purchase an officially unlocked iPhone(GSM model) directly from Apple.

    However, the system requiments are pretty steep:
    Mac OS X v10.6 or v10.7
    2GB of RAM
    Intel Core 2 Duo or later
    so you at minimum need to upgrade the OS to at least OS 10.6. That is this package:
