Transfer purchased apps from my wife's account to mine

Recently, my wife and I decided that we would sell her iPad to one of our kids. I have an iPad2 and would like to know if I can transfer her apps (purchased under her own ID) to my iPad.

If you log into the App Store on your iPad using her account, you should be able to download her purchased apps directly.

How do I transfer purchased apps from one Apple ID account to another?

I noticed I was purchasing apps on my iphone using a different Apple ID. Both use the same email address.
Here is what I want to do:
1. Which account is older? I don't remember which Apple ID I registered when I purchased my iPhone. How can I find this out?
2. I only want to keep one Apple ID. How do I get rid of the other one?
3. Before I "delete" the Apple ID, how do I transfer the contents (apps, songs)? Do I transfer this to the other account? Should I transfer this to a computer? Do I download them to iTunes, and if so, under which account would be downloading them to? I have heard you can burn songs onto a disc. Can I also do this for apps?
Thanks again!

1) not sure.
2 ) You don't. you can stop using it, but everything purchased with it, will still be tied to it, and your computers will need to be authorized to that account.
3) "Before I "delete" the Apple ID, how do I transfer the contents (apps, songs)" Transfer them from where to where?
" Do I transfer this to the other account?"
You cannot.
" Do I download them to iTunes, and if so, under which account would be downloading them to?"
Download them to itunes from where? and you cannot download them to another account. They will always be tied to the account from which they were purchased.
" I have heard you can burn songs onto a disc. Can I also do this for apps? "
You can back them up to a cd and transfer them between computers.
What are you trying to accomplish?

Unable to transfer purchased apps from iphone to window 7

I tried all the solution which been offered from apple support but i still unable to transfer purchased apps from iphone to window 7. Please show me what to do =(

Are you trying to transfer apps to Windows 7 to USE them on Windows 7, or to back up your iPhone? iPhone apps will not run on Windows (OR Mac OS X); they only run on the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad.
To back up your iPhone, connect the phone to your computer using the cable that came with the phone and a USB port directly on the computer, not a hub. Do not sync.
Check the account you have on your iPhone by going to Settings/Store. Make sure you are logged in to this same account on your computer, and that the computer is Authorized to this account (check the Store menu).
Go to the File Menu in iTunes and choose "Transfer Purchases".
If you have a problem with any of these steps please let us know exactly what the problem is.

Please help me transfer purchased apps from my current ios6 to new ios7 program.

Please help me transfer purchased apps from my current ios6 to new ios7 program.

There is no need to transfer anything.
Update the device via iTunes or Over the Air... no content on the device should be affected.
If the device is used as designed and regularly backed up to iCloud or iTunes on the computer, should anything go wrong it can be restored.

Apps designed for iOS do not run on OS X....
But... media files should still run if that's that you mean.

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 ...

Transfer purchased apps from one iTUNES account to another

I have purchased a few apps on an iTunes account, have set up a new account and bought apps on that. Can i transfer apps from one iTunes to another?

The Solution is that you will need to keep account A active for as long as you have those Apps...
Or you can Get Them Again using account B... But if they are Purchased Apps you will have to pay again...
Free Apps are of course Free...

How do I transfer a particular app from a different iPad/account to mine

There's this app in my cousin's iPad that I wanted to transfer to mine... It was purchased from a different apple account which, from what we know, was disabled... We tried, logging the account, from which the app was purchased from, into my iPad but then we couldn't get it through because it said the account was disabled... It's still in that particular iPad, and working... But I'd like to know how to transfer or share it to mine... And how we could possibly update the app, despite the account being terminated....

All apps, and other downloaded content, are tied to the account that originally bought/downloaded it - so if that app was bought by your cousin then it will be tied to your cousin's account, you can't copy or transfer it to another account. If the app is still in the store then you should be able to buy your own copy of it.
For your cousin's account being disabled, he/she might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
He/she might then need to log out of the account on your their by tapping on the id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in so as to 'refresh' the account on it
If that doesn't fix it then he/she might need to contact iTunes Support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

How to transfer purchased apps from iPhone to macbook

Hey guys, I'm trying to transfer a couple of apps that I purchased on my iPhone, and I'm trying to get them on my Macbook air without buying them agin. The problem is that I don't know if the method thats been provide for us on apple/support.com is actually working. The method I've been using is plugging my phone up to my macbook and opening iTunes, then going to file> devices> transfer purchases, but nothing seemed to happen. Is there a Specific place or file that the transferred purchases would have been sent to or am I doing it all wrong? P.S the apps that I'm trying to transfer is Garageband, Pages, Numbers, and Key Note.

That method will put the iOS versions of them into the computer's iTunes library. The Mac OS X versions need to be gotten from the Mac App Store.
Mac OS X and iOS are separate architectures.

How can I transfer purchased apps from one iPad to another?

Hi all,
We just got a second iPad. Previously our single iPad was registered under my Apple ID. My wife downloaded lots of apps for the kids on our old iPad. Now I want to associate the old iPad with my wife's Apple ID, but be able to keep all the kids apps on it that were previously purchased under my apple ID. I don't really want any of the kids apps on the new iPad - especially since I will usually have it with me at work. Is there any way to do this?
Thanks.
NM

You can't associate purchased apps with another Apple ID. The apps are tied to the ID that was used to purchase them.
If you sign in on the iPad with the ID that purchased the apps - then you can download them again using the ID that is associated with those purchases.

How do I copy an App from my wife's phone to mine

My wife has a free App from a 3rd party authorised provider that I would find very useful. Its a gateway to a government work related suite of password secured websites. She can't remember where it came from and no amount of searching can find it. Another collugue has it on his iPad but can't find it to put on his phone.
I've tried looking on her iTunes but it doesn't appear in her apps or iTunes .ipa files. Non-apple files may be stored somewhere else but I can't find them.
We have seperate laptops with our own iTunes on each. If its possible we could cpy direct from phone to phone or via one of the laptops or eamil/stick from laptop tolaptop whatever.
eHow has answered the question http://www.ehow.co.uk/how_4864095_transfer-iphone-apps-another-iphone.html except that the author has got completly muddled in describing the computers and phones involved that her instructions are incoherent if you don't know what you are doing - try and work out what she means by 'target' phone.
Any advice gratefully accepted.

With your phone connected, iTunes running: File>Transfer Purchases.
