TS1702 I have an apple ID for the company but how do use my Itunes and a single id to download and manage multiple copies of the same purchased app for multiple Ipads that I need to support?

Hi,
I am trying to manage a number ipads in the business but I have problems managing the download of apps to multiple ipads using a single copy of Itunes and appleid.
I obviously want purchase correctly the number of copies of the app I require and manage them going forward but the issue I have is that when I try to purchase an additional copy of the app it shows as already purchased and downloaded in my Itunes.
What am i doing wrong or is this a feature?
Any help appreciated.
Chris

Use VPP.  Select an MDM.  Read the google doc below.

    If both accounts are authorised on the computer's iTunes that you sync them to, and the relevant apps are on that computer, then you should be able to sync them to both devices. The apps will be tied to the account that originally bought/downloaded them, so only that account will be able to download updates to them.
    If you log into the other account on a device and re-download its apps onto them then you risk tying the device to that account for 90 days (and similarly redownloading on a computer's iTunes) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4627

    There is nothing that you can do to get rid of the balance on your own. Contact iTunes Store Support and seek their assistance. I believe that they can reset your balance for you.

  • I subscribed to iTunes Match and would like to sync my music on multiples devices that have different Apple IDs within the same iCloud family.

    I subscribed to iTunes Match and would like to sync my music on multiples devices that have different Apple IDs within the same iCloud family.
    Can someone indicate the way to proceed?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    You can't use family sharing or multiple Apple IDs with iTunes match.
    ITunes match is only attached to Apple id that you used to subscribe.

  • I want to install the same 30 apps on 40 iPads.

    Hi!
    I want to install the same 30 apps on 40 iPads.
    Some of them cost money but I have iTunes cards.
    Each device has its own unique appleID.
    I am in Sweden so I cannot use the volume purchase program.
    Do I do this app by app or is there a way to do it more easily?
    Regards

    You probably want to go with some kind of cloning solution.
    There has  been some discussion about the legality of cloning.  Many read it that cloning is ok, if you have purchased enough licenses for what you are doing.
      Select a MDM???   Read the Google doc below covers cloning and nsdjoey write up.

    There are three ownership models:

        Layered. combines personal & institution.

    True, the DV and HDV capture firewire into the Premiere Elements 13 Capture window is gone. But, have you

  • I have 2 iphones registered under the same appleID.  Every text message that is sent to my phone, the other phone receives as well.  If I turn "imessage" off on the other phone, will this solve the problem from her receiving text messages meant for me?

    I have 2 Iphones, registered under the same AppleID. Mine, and my mom's.  I recently (today) did the software udate for her phone, and ever since-she receives every message i send to my girlfriend, and every response that my girlfriend sends to me.  I read up on Imessage, and checked the settings on both phones.  On each phone "imessage"was turned on, so i turned Imessage off.  Will this solve the problem of my mom receiving every message that  i send and receive? Also, if i turn Imessage back on, on my phone-will i still have privacy to text?

    Why not create a second Apple ID?  Wouldn't that solve the problem much more straightforwardly?
    Here's a helpful website: http://www.apple.com/support/appleid/

  • HT4436 Can I have two apple IDs with the same iCloud?

    Is it possible to sync data from multiple apple IDs to the same cloud account?

    So, how do we as a family have more than one device ( 3 iphones, 1 ipad, 1 imac) and each person be able to sync their own contacts, etc..?  My son just backed his up and it confused my iphone - ie, my husband's name now is under 'Dad' and I have all his college friends...  I am so confused.....

  • HT2731 I have 2 apple iPods on the same account, And they have the Same songs on them. How can I get a new account for one of them but not the other? Can I wipe the memory of 1? How would I do that?

    I have 2 iPods one I don't use anymore. I would like to make a new account for one but not the other. Is that possible? If I wipe the memory in one will the other wipe out too? How can I do all of this?

    You don't have to do anything with the first iPod that you don't use anymore. If you are planning on keeping it, put in a drawer in your house and forget about it.
    You don't need a second account to use with the new iPod. I use one Appl e ID and iTunes library for two iPods, and two iPad. I have different content on all four devices. You can select exactly what you want to sync to each device and it can be different content on all devices.

  • HT204053 I have one apple id for my iPad and a second apple id for my iPhone and laptop. I just want to use one apple id. How do I delete the apple id on my iPad and make it consistent with the other two devices?

    I have one apple id on my iPad and a second apple id on my iPhone and laptop. I want to use one apple id for everything. I tried wiping my iPad and synching it with my laptop. The old apple id still remains on my iPad. I can't get rid of it. Help.

    On the iPad open Settings/iCloud and delete the account using the button at the bottom. Once deleted log in using the other account. For iTunes Stores use Settings/iTunes & Apps Stores, tapp on the Apple ID at the top then sign out. Once done sign in using the other account. Once you are happy with the changes plug your iPad into your computer to update the backup.

  • TS1398 I have a little symbol in the upper right side of my iPad that looks like a lock and now I cant get connected to the internet. Can anyone help me ( my granddaughter was playing on my iPad before this happened)

    I have a symbol in the upper right hand corner of my iPad that looks like a lock.  Now I am unable to connect to wifi.
    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    If you see a lock icon in the upper right corner of the screen - then the screen orientation is locked.
    Try the side switch above the volume rocker first and see if that unlocks the screen. If that doesn't do it, double tap the home button and swipe to the right and look for the lock icon all the way to the left.
    If the screen is unlocked but still will not rotate, reset the iPad.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the button
    For the WiFi issue try Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. You can also power cycle your router, Unplug it for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in.

  • I have 6 apple products on the same password. How do I go about splitting them up and creating another password?

    Any suggestions on how to create a second apple password and split up the apple products so not all the information is sync to all 6 products?

    I assume you mean that they are all sharing the same iCloud account.  To separate them, you will have to delete the existing iCloud account, set up a new iCloud account with a different ID, then migrate the data to the new account.  Note: you can continue to share the same ID for purchasing; it does not need to be the same as the ID you use for iCloud.
    Decide which device(s) will be keeping the current iCloud account.  On the others, if you they any photos in the my photo stream album that are not in the camera roll or backed up somewhere else, save these to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll. 
    Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud.  The device[s] that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.)  When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My [iDevice].  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new account.
    Finally, to if you have any data in any of the accounts that you don't want (such as someone else's contacts) you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete it.
