Search keywords on a purchased app

Ok, this is going to sound silly, but a few weeks ago I wanted to download this app but my iPhone didn't have the latest update that was required for that app, so I could not download.  Instead I downloaded a similar app that was listed in the same search results.  I have now updated my iPhone (and here comes the silly part...) and I cannot for the life of me remember the name of that app, or the phrase I used to search for it and cant find it in any other relevant searches.  So my dumb question is, is there any way to maybe view the keywords of the other app I did download and use them in my app store search so maybe I can get similar results to my original search and find the app I was looking for?  Also for future reference, is there any way to bookmark an app in the store so I wont have this problem again?  I know, its dumb and probably impossible, but doesn't hurt to ask right?

Try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that app and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24 hours).
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work (it's been taking some people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page.

  • TS1702 In the app store purchased apps is blank. Not a single app is there.

    I've bough many apps through my IPad but when I went to purchased apps it blank.  I want to reinstall an app that froze but can't find it.

    By the way, the search function in the top right corner of the page still works.
    Enter a search word and all purchased apps with that word will appear in a result page that is not blank.
    Maybe with a good chosen search word you can find the app you are looking for.

  • How can I search through my purchased apps on an iPad running iOS 7.0.4?

    Maybe I'm just missing it, but I see no way to search through my purchased apps on my iPad (3rd generation) running iOS 7.0.4. To be clear, I know how to go to the appstore, click purchased, and view all of my purchased apps, but I cannot see a search field by which to textually search through my apps as is available on the iPhone. It seems inexplicable that Apple would have this feature on the iPhone but not the iPad, so am I missing something?
    Thanks for any help.

  • Before removing iPhoto (latest update crashed the app), I accidently removed it from my purchased Apps from the App Store. I accept iPhoto when I search for it, but does not put it back in my list. How do I get this back so that I can reinstall iPhoto?

    Thank you.

    I found the answer just after posted this.  Thanks to a user named CloudWalker.  Solution is to go in AppStore, View Account under "Store" Menu and unhide any purchases.

  • I have Mac OS X Version 10.6.8 ,I want to buy the updated operating system that puts iMessage and Facetime on my Macbook Pro. What should I search for, and then purchase, in the App Store?

    FaceTime can run in the version of OS X that you currently have. To get Messageyou need Mountain Lion. The protocol used by Messages is iMeassage.
    The question is does your MBP meet the specs for Mountain Lion.

  • Search in my huge purchased iOS apps collection?

    Hello.
    I have been collecting many iOS apps for a while and probably have hundreds by now. Is there a way to search IN my purchased collection for the apps I want to download? I did not see a way to do this in Windows XP Pro SP3's iTunes v12.1.2.27 and iOS v8.3's App Store.
    Thank you in advance.

    On my iPod Touch, running iOS 8.3, if I go to Updates > Purchased in the App Store app and pull down the screen I get a search box appear at the top of the screen, which lets me search my purchased apps (those that are still in the store and which I haven't hidden).
    On my Mac's iTunes (current version, I assume that it's the same on Windows) then going to the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage, or clicking on my name towards the top right of iTunes and then clicking Purchased on the popup, I get a screen where I can view my purchases - select Apps, and at the top left there should be a 'search purchased items' search box
    Interesting. On my old iPhone 4S with iOS v8.3, I do not see a search on the top of that purchased apps screen. I do see it on the bottom but that seems to be global in the store. Windows' iTunes worked good like yours.

  • Can't re-download any purchased apps//app store constantly shuts off in the middle of searches.

    After iOS 6 update--cant redownload any previously purchased apps from app store. App store constantly shuts off when in the middle of searches.

    It happens to me almost every time but if you hold the power/sleep button and the home button for about 10 seconds to do a hard reset it usually works for me. I have an iPod touch 4G with ios6.

  • Search purchased apps not installed on my phone through app store update tab

    Before my upgrade to iOS 6 I could search purchased apps that are not installed on my phone through the update section. The new App Store doesn't seem to have this function. Am I just missing it? I don't want to have to buy apps I already have and it's a pain to have to scroll through them all to try to find one I'm looking for.

    The solution is to purchase a phone from a region where FaceTime is NOT banned. There is no way to have FaceTime on the phone you now have.

  • The app store opens on my ipod touch, but no apps show up in featured, charts or search. Help? I cn see my purchased apps.

    The RC helicopter's directions say its available in the App store for Apple and here it is in the iTunes store:
    https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/icess/id558793179?mt=8 (released on 6/19/2013)
    How do I get this to show up on my iPad and/or iPod touch app stores so I can then download and install it as needed?

  • My Iphone4 wont let me purchase apps. Says my security code on Credit Card is invalid but its not.

    My Iphone 4 will not let me purchase apps. Its says that I have an unresolved balance. My credit card is on file but it says that the security code is invalid. I have tried changing my address to be more specific, but nothing works. I know my credit card number is correct and that the security code is valid. I do not know how to resolve the situation. If someone has experienced this before and knows how to fix it you help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

  • How do I transfer purchased apps from one mac to the other?

    When i want to sync my iPhone in iTunes on my new computer I will lose all of the apps that I purchased.
    Can someone tell me how to sync it in a way (or some other solution) so I can keep my purchased apps? 
    I'm using the same ID as on old mac.
    I have been searching on the internet for help, but I can't find a clear answer.
    Thanks in advance.

    1) authorize iTunes on the new machine for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    btw, purchased apps can be redownloaded over and over free of charge ...

  • Hi, I have two iPads, two separate accounts I have purchased apps on one Acc. and would like to use them on my second iPad. How is this possible

    I have two iPads, two separate accounts I have purchased apps on one Acc. and would like to use them on my second iPad. How is this possible

    If you go to Settings > iTunes & AppStore , you can sign out from your account, and sign in with the one you've used to purchase apps.This will not remove any apps you already have on it.
    Then you can go to AppStore and download apps you've purchased (either via "Purchased" button in "Updates", or simply search for them and download them.
    That way you can have multiple accounts' apps on your iPad. When updating, you will be prompted for the credentials for account you've purchased given App with.

  • "Accept" button says I need to purchase app, but doesn't say how

    I purchased a new MacBook Pro in January. I setup accounts for myself (admin), son, and daughter (both Mac OS X users and Apple IDs). Yesterday I noticed from my Apple ID that the App Store said iMovie and iPhoto needed to be updated. I tried updating them, but it said they were purchased from another Apple ID, and I had to upgrade using that Apple ID. I logged into my son's Apple ID, ran App Store, and sure enough he had "Installed" them 4 weeks ago, along with GarageBand. I'm guessing this install was actually an upgrade since they came pre-installed on the machine. However, I'm not sure how this happened. He's downloaded other games, but doesn't recall ever updating anything.
    In any case at this point what I want to do is disassociate these apps from my son's Apple ID so I can control their upgrade from my Apple ID. I tried deleting them from the LaunchPad. However, for GarageBand this left it in a state where I need to purchase it for $14.99. For iMovie and iPhoto, when I search for them for purchase, they are displayed with an "Accept" button rather than an "Install" button. When I click on "Accept" I get the following message:
    "These apps cannot be accepted by your Apple ID.
    These apps were already assigned to another Apple ID, and they will be available in that Apple ID's Purchases list. If you don't have access to that Apple ID and want to receive future updates, you will need to purchase the applications."
    Problem is I can't find any way to purchase them from my Apple ID. How do I change the "Accept" button to a "Purchase" button?
    BTW, I also tried deleting the apps and restoring from an old Time Zone backup, but still had the same problem. There's some database on the machine that associates these apps with my sons AppleID even though originally the came pre-installed.

    Thanks for the info. Seems kind of messed up though. Why would Apple let any random user of a machine control all future upgrades of critical apps. I guess perhaps my admin password was needed at some point, which my son has. Still, seems this is something you should be able to undo.
    I'm starting to get a clearer pictures of what's going on. These 3 apps are part of iLife 11 and normally cost $14.95 each. They come pre-installed on new machines, but it looks like at some point you need to associate this "purchase" with an Apple ID, and can only associate it with one Apple ID. Thus they are now irrevocably associated with my son's Apple ID.
    However, if I wanted to shell out the money, it seems I should be able to tell this particular mac to forget everthing it knows about the purchase of these apps, and re-purchase them from another Apple ID. Although I doubt I'd do that at this point, if I by a 2nd Mac and properly associated these apps with my Apple ID on this 2nd mac, I should then be able to use this "purchase" to download the apps to the first mac I'm having a problem with. However, currently I can't even see a way to do this. Is there some App Store cache I can trash so App Store no longer knows which apps were installed by which Apple ID?

  • HT201272 i can't see my purchased apps in itunes on new ipad when I go into the itunes store. It shows nothing. I haven't changed my ID or country of purchase. It shows that I would have to rebuy them when I go into the store.

    i can't see my purchased apps in itunes on new ipad mini. when I go into the itunes store. It shows nothing. I haven't changed my ID or country of purchase. It shows that I would have to rebuy them when I go into the store. Is there something in settings on Itunes I need to change? I do not have cloud.

    Yes I am looking in the app store. When I look in Itunes on my computer and look at purchased apps it is there. And when I go on my other device and look at apps purchased all apps are there.
    The new ipad doesn't show any apps purchased when I click on apps purchased and when I search the app store it doesn't show it is purchased. I am wondering if I am just missing something...need to turn something on in options or something. Never had this problem with previous ipad when I set it up.
