Sharing apps between devices

How can you share paid apps between my devices?

If both devices are logged In with the same iTunes account you will not have to pay a second time. Browse to the app you already paid for in the App Store. You will see there is no price on it,meaning you can download again for free.
To automatically have apps download on both devices when you install to one device, go to settings - iTunes and app stores - and turn on the switch for apps. Do that on both devices and whenever you install on one, the other one will get the app too.

  • Syncing apps between devices

    I'm having difficulty syncing some apps between devices so that data is saved. I recently purchased an iPad mini for my daughter and want her to have some of her existing game apps to play, and then delete from my iPad. Anyone encountered the same, or any solutions?

    I'm having the same problem with apps not syncing between my iPhone 5s and iPad Air. I made sure under settings > iTunes & Apps Store that automatic Download is on and selected for Music, Apps, Books, and Updates. Have you gotten a resolution to that issue?

  • HT4436 iCloud for app between devices

    how to i turn off compatibility of an app between devices? under iCloud settings, I turned off "notes", but it's still connected between my mac and iPhone. for example, when I edit/delete a note on my phone, it edits/deletes the note on my mac… Does anyone know how to turn it off?

    If you turned of Notes in Settings>iCloud and changes to your notes on your phone still appear on your Mac, you must be syncing notes with another provider rather than iCloud.  Open the Notes app and tap Accounts at the top.  Tap each account listed to see what account your notes belong to (iCloud only syncs notes that belong to the iCloud account; the iCloud account won't be listed if you turned off Notes in Settings>iCloud). 
    If you notes belong to another account, for example a Gmail account, you would need to go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars, tap the Account, then turn off Notes syncing with the account in order to stop syncing with your Mac.

  • Is there a way to stop sharing apps between my iphone and my daughters ipad. We share the same email and itunes account.

    is there a way to stop sharing apps between my iphone and my daughters ipad...we share the same email and itunes account.

    You can keep the same Apple ID for purchases, but set up her own iCloud account for email and syncing.
    You can easily and effectively use the same ID for purchases.
    What you do is use the apple ID you have been using for app/book/movie/music purchases. In Settings > Store, make sure you are using your usual apple ID.
    Then, set up an icloud (@me.com) account for you on your phone, and one for your daughter on her phone. In Settings > iCloud, make sure each of you are using your new iCloud accounts, and not your Apple ID.
    Also, in Settings > Messages > Receive At, make sure you are using your iCloud accounts
    This way, all of your purchases are using one account, and you can effectively use iCloud.

  • Share apps between devices

    when I buy an app in the Ipad it is supposed to show up in my Iphone. But i doesent. i have enabled I cloud and in the Appstore I have enabled "share apps between devices".

    Ther are many apps that are built just for the iPad only. You may want to chech to see if those apps you have state that they are designed for iPhone and iPad. Many times, you have to buy a version for each device.

  • Sharing apps between two iTunes accounts

    Aloha all,
    My wife and I have two iMacs, two iPhones and two ipads. We have purchased music and apps on separate iTunes accounts. She has purchased an iPad app that I'd like to put on my iPad. Can it be shared or do I have to buy it too?
    Thanks!

  • App sharing problem between devices.

    I have problems with icloud app sharing between Iphone and Ipad, everything is set up correctly but when I download an app on my iphone the app doesnt download and install on the ipad automatically.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Ensure that both devices are logged into the same account on the app store, go to settings > store and make sure automatic downloads are enabled for apps.

  • I'd like to know tips for sharing apps between my wife and myself on two iPads with two apple IDs and one computer.

    I'm new to iTunes, app store, and managing content on two iPads and an iPod. I manage both iPads and an iPod on one computer, but we have two apple IDs. All my music is on a home-theatre pc. I don't really understand home sharing yet, and I am hoping for some tips from experienced users to keep me from losing content, or mixing up apps and confusing digital rights etc.

    You cannot share apps, or any other content purchased from the iTunes Store, between two different Apple IDs.  Those purchases are tied to the Apple ID.

  • Sharing apps between ipas and ipad mini

    can i share apps and their contents between an ipad and an ipad mini?

    No. You can sync Apps by using the Same apple ID on both devices. But the Apps contents remains on the device unless it has a specific feature that backs up to the cloud or something similar that can then be retrieved on the other device.

  • Sharing apps between itunes accounts

    My husband  & I have 2 separate itunes accounts. We got our son an ipod & we each want to 'give' him some of our apps and songs, etc.
    How can we both do this in sharing? Sharing sounds like it is one 'HOME' account.

    Apps cannot be shared using different AppleID. Use your Apple ID to sync.

  • Question About Sharing Apps Between My iPhone and My Wife's iPhone

    Hi, I have a question about downloading apps to my iPhone.
    I ordered two iPhone 3g's - one for my wife and one for me, and I've discovered that when I download an app (even free ones) on my iPhone and then later sync it to iTunes, my wife cannot put it on her phone. However if I download it on iTunes on my computer and later sync it to my phone, then my wife is able to sync it to her phone as well. It's no big deal when they are free because she can just go get it if she wants it. I haven't purchased any apps yet, but is there a way to be able to give my wife apps that I purchase on my iPhone? Or do I need to purchase all of my [pay] apps and songs on iTunes on my computer to ensure we both have access? Or do I have it all wrong completely LOL?? This rights management stuff is confusing.
    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Jimmy

    I had my iTunes account and phone before I got my wife's hers. When I first started, I synced hers from her account on my computer brought in my libraries and authorized her phone as one of the 5 allowed. She had all purchased apps and music. Over time we each bought music or apps on our seperate accouts. Of course, we told each other about cool apps or music we bought and wanted on our phone. When I went to sync iTunes was going to delete all music and apps and sync with the library I was logged into. Didn't want that, only work around I have found is to copy new music or new apps from one library to the other. Updating on the phone is also difficult because you can't switch between accounts so updates have to be done at the computer for apps bought under different accounts. I am sure there is a better way to do this and ask for an insight anyone would have. I hope it works out.

  • How NOT to cross-sync apps between devices?

    Hey gang-
    I backup all my iOS devices to iTunes on my desktop iMac.    I like everything about that except the fact that if I update an app, for example, on my iPad, iTunes then updates that app on my iPhone on the next Sync.    For lots of reason, I don't want to do that- for example some updates I like on iPhone and not on iPad, or vice versa.
    Sooooo, I'm looking in iTunes and trying to figure out which setting will prevent this happening.  I'm looking at the Apps tab with my iPad connected, and I'm trying to figure out do I uncheck the very top choice "Sync Apps", or the one at the bottom of the list "Automatically Sync New Apps"    And what is the difference?   I get a rather scary Alert when I turn off "Sync Apps" that makes me think iTunes might not Backup my apps if I do that.
    Thanks gang!
    Dave

    Open itunes, connect a device, go to the apps tab, select only the apps you want on that device, select sync app or they will all be erased.  If you do not want every new app that you download to be added to your device, tehn deselect that option.
    Each device will only sync what you select

  • Sharing apps between ipod and iphone

    I am going to be pruchasing an iphone 4 this weekend from Verizon.  Just wondering if I can use the many apps I have already purchased for my ipod touch, on my new iphone?  Will I have to repurchase them for the iphone, or can they exist and be used on both devices?

    The apps can be used on any number of devices as long as all devices are signed into the same Apple ID.
