IPad Air 2 : Issue with re-installing iWork Apps

Hello All,
During my recent vacation, I bought an iPad Air 2 (64 GB). Since this was my first iOS device, I used my wife's Apple ID to quickly setup and use.
On reaching home, I created an Apple ID and made relevant changes on my iPad to reflect my ID.
But by mistake I deleted/uninstalled one of the iWork Apps, now when I goto App Store, it requests for a purchase. Why? Since iWork Apps are pre-installed on iPad Air 2, shouldn't it allow me to re-install these apps?
Could you pl help me solve this issue.
Regards,
Srinath

If you originally used your wife's account to activate the iPad then they will be tied to her account, only her account will be able to redownload them for free - though they were preinstalled on the iPad (as it's capacity was 32+ gig), they would have been linked to your wife's account when you activated it.

  • I bought a new ipad air but when i install the apps , all of them are gone , but i app store still are and says you can open it. But it can not open.

    I bought a new ipad air but when i install the apps , all of them are gone , but i app store still are and says you can open it. But it can not open.

    The apps available to you are dependent on your location. If you are not in the USA, then you cannot get the USA app store. Whilst you may think that is unfair, it has been a part of the stardard terms and conditions you agreed to when you setup the iOS device in question originally, as well as every time you click agree to the terms and conditions.
    This is done because of two things, firstly there are many legal and semi-legal reasons that an iOS app store download is available in one territory and not another, in addition to this, it also allows apple to provide language specific content, as well as team up with companies and organisations within individual organisations in order to provide you with exclusive offers, content, and information, which it would not otherwise be able to do.
    Rules for the iOS app store are also applied in varing forms for the music store, the books store, and the iTunes U content library.
    I can very much understand your fustraition, as someone who spent a considerable portion of his life, especially during the years he grew up, living in California, USA, but now living in London, UK, I too find it very fustraiting that you cannot always get the same content from one country to another, especially when most marketing for iOS apps originates in the USA these days.
    I hope this helps your query and helps to ease your fustraition. If you would like apple to be aware of your fustraition, rather than putting it onto a pubilc form which is on monitored in a very limited capacity, then you can fill in the form at http://www.apple.com/feedback where you can give your complaint straight to apple.

  • I have an iPad air and have downloaded the microsoft app excel.  I have an email with an excel attachment.  When I "tap to download" the attachment, it auto converts to a PDF file.  I want it to open in excel.  Please help.

    I have an iPad air and have downloaded the microsoft app excel.  I have an email with an excel attacment.  When I "tap to download" the attachment, it automatically converts to a PDF file and opens as a "view only" document.  I want it to open with the excel app so I can see and update the spreadsheet.  Please help.  Thanks!

    If Excel works as do other apps, you should be able to tap and hold on the attachment and then select "Open in Excel" in the window that will open. Note that you need to be subscribed to and signed into Office 365 to be able to edit documents in Microsoft's apps.

  • I've activated a new iPhone 6 from the backup of the previous device and all pre-installed iWork apps got lost. How do I get them back? AppStore downloads are offered with a fee.

    Hi all!

    Hi Ingo,
    thanks for your help. Your hint didn't solve my problem but pointed me in the right direction.
    When I wanted to activate my new phone from backup I realized, I didn't knew the password. It was noted on a paper at home. So I activated the phone free cause I couldn't await coming home ... a new toy!
    Due to GameCenter I have two apple-ids and unfortunately I took the wrong for the activation.
    Back home I've reset the phone and activated it from backup. The iWork apps disappeared and now are linked to the other apple-id.
    I was able to re-install the apps from AppStore for free. But I don't think I can transfer the apps to the other id.
    Thanks a lot
    Harald

  • When you get the new iPhone 5S they say it come with al the iWork apps for free install already. But if i restore from back-up from an old device which doesnt have any iWork apps would I still receive those iWork Apps?

    Hey Davin12,
    Yes. The apps are not pre-installed, but rather you are prompted to download them the first time you launch the App Store in iOS 7:
    About Free Apple Apps for iOS 7 compatible devices
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5913
    iPhoto, iMovie, Keynote, Pages, and Numbers are free on the App Store for qualifying iOS 7 compatible devices activated or purchased after September 1, 2013
    The first time you launch the App Store in iOS 7 on your qualifying new or factory refurbished iOS device, you will be offered iMovie, iPhoto, Keynote, Pages, and Numbers for free in addition to other free software from Apple. When you tap Download All and sign in with your Apple ID, the apps will be downloaded to your device and added to your store account. If you tap Not Now when you see the offer, you can go back to each of the apps in the store and download them one at a time for free.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • Does the new Macbook Air not have iLife and iWork Apps?

    My old Macbook Air came with iLife and iWorks installed. My new Macbook Air with osX does not. Am I missing something?

    It comes with GarageBand, iMovie and iPhoto.  If you want pages and numbers, must buy in the App store or theiWork DVD.

  • I have a problem with my new ipad air 64g with cellular. When I off my ipad for a long period of time ( around 2 hours), my ipad air freeze. Nothing is showing on screen with any button except by pressing reboot (home   on/off button)

    I have a problem with my new ipad air 64g with cellular. When I off my ipad for a long period of time ( around 2 hours), my ipad air freeze. Nothing is showing on screen with any button except by pressing reboot (home   on/off button). Anyone out there can help. Thanks.

    I have a 64GB iPad Air WiFi+Cellular (Verizon), and I don't see the issues you are describing.  First I would suggest that you update your iPad to the newest iOS update.  If that doesn't help, then you may want to schedule an appointment at an Apple Genius Bar.  If you go this route, I suggest that you let the iPad sleep for long enough for the problem to arise before you go to your appointment.

  • On my IPad I cannot update or install any Apps. Ive tried turning off my IPad. It did not help. The Apps are stuck saying Waiting....

    On my IPad I cannot update or install any Apps. I've tried restarting and that did not help. The Apps are stuck, darkened and say Waiting.... Please help me figure this issue out.

    If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

    Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
    If that doesn't work:
    •  Log out of your iTunes store account.  Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
    • Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
    • After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

  • IMessage not working on 5S and iPad Air issues

    iMessage not working on 5S. Had 3 online chats with apple support but still not fixed. iPad air issues also; safari shuts down a lot on mine and my husbands iMessage not working. iMessage works on his 5S. Never had so many issues with Apple before. I receive SMS messages on 5S but no iMessage. It was suggested to me that I get a new sim or try another wifi, both seem odd given everything else works.
    My husband and I got our phones the same day, his works right, mine doesn't.
    iPad airs were purchased a month apart, mine works ok apart from safari shutdowns and his iMessage not working.
    Also the slider to answer calls on both phones not always working. Had to reboot one of them and it forced us to set it up again from scratch.
    Any ideas?

    restore from backup or restore as new.

  • I have just bought and iMac and it was a display model but I'm trying to install iWork apps and its asking me to buy them. Any suggestions please

    i have just bought and iMac and it was a display model but I'm trying to install iWork apps and its asking me to buy them. Any suggestions please

    If it didn't start up with the Startup Assistant, did you erase the drive and reinstall the OS prior to starting this?
    That is the best way to start given that it was a display model.
    The free apps are tied to the Mac. If the store downloaded the apps from the App Store, you won't be able to do the same. You might want to contact App Store support: http://www.apple.com/support/mac/app-store/

  • I had the first ipad now i have the new ipad air where the the picture frame app?

    i had the first ipad now i have the new ipad air where the the picture frame app?

    Apple iOS designers did away with the Picture Frame slide show app and the lock screen icon that used to activate it.
    If you are looking for a replacement, look in the iOS App Store app and search for Picmatic.
    This is a pretty good replacement for that function.

  • Less than two week old iPad Air crashes with youtube/netflix and Safari when loading pages with video (i.e. Buzzfeed with links to youtube and vine). What's up with iPad Air's bugs with videos??

    Week and a half old iPad Air crashes with light usage of youtube, netflix and safari pages with video links to youtube and vine. The consistency of problems with videos has led me to determine that it must be bugs with iPad Air. Anyone else having this problem?
    Details: iPad Air 16gb wifi, have only used about 25% of space and always close all apps before opening another. I also have only had a max of two tabs open on safari of basic internet surfing (i.e. A google search page, or imdb for example). These crashes are annoying as sh......

    I can well imagine that they are.
    I would backup, restore to factory settings, restore from the backup and then try again. If that fails, restore again but do not use the backup - restore as new. If the iPad functions OK as new, then slowly rebuild the iPad adding your apps, music etc, methodically to see if you can pin down what might be causing the problem.
    if all of that fails, it's time to schedule an appointment at an Apple a Store (must be done online) and have them take a look, or of it is lees than two weeks old, just return it for a refund and buy another one.
