What happens if you gift someone an app that they already own?

Does it just give them credit for any other app they want or does it refund the purchase?

You get two copies of the album. You can't use the gift code to get a different album. You get what the purchaser chose for you.

    You have to download the iPhone version of the app - if there are two different versions and if you do not want to pay for the iPad version.
    Look in the App Store for the iPhone version and then try to download that one,

  • I was gifted an app that I already own. Options?

    I was gifted an app that I already have.  What are my options?  (it's a rather expensive app.)

    Did you redeem the code already? If not, I recommend having the purchaser contact iTunes Store Customer Support via http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/gotoiTunesSupport They may be able to arrange a refund for them.

  • Can you get your money back after you gift someone an app and it doesn't work?

    I kneed to know if you can get your money back when you gift an app to someone if it doesnt work. Thanks!

    If you've tried contacting the developer and not had a response then you can try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via Store > View My Account (Store > View My Apple ID on iTunes 11) 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 click the arrow to the left of it, click the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24 hours).
    Some people have had a problem with the 'report a problem' link (it's been taking people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) - if it does that to you then 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.

  • HT4743 What happens when you buy a tv season that isn't finished yet?

    If I buy a season of a tv series, but the season isn't finished yet, do I get the new episodes too? Or do I only get the episodes listed on iTunes when I click buy? If I do get all the episodes, do they automatically download? I just need to know If I have to wait until the entire season is listed... Thanks!!
    Can I then put the season on my iPad?

    In addition I believe you can  get a pro rata refund or similar if you cancel the season pass before downloading future episodes or if the show goes bust and doesn't complete the season.
    Complete my Season may be another option when a season has completed (and should work eventually for those that have episodes yet to air for that season).
    Here, when you buy an episode, if the season is complete you can buy the season for the full cost less that of those you've already bought.
    Beware however as it won't let you do it if the remaining cost falls to less than a single episode - I've been caught out twice with that - you need to know how many episodes in total and stop buying individual ones at the appropriate point.

  • What happened to my gift card credit?

    I know how to review my purchase history in my iTunes account.  But, how do I find out what happened to a gift card credit?  Per my my account's purchase history, I only used $10 of a $50 gift card (assuming the culprit is NOT user error, e.g., I redeemed on the incorrect account).  Can I search "payment history" in addition to purchase history?  Thanks.

    I am currently in 'discussion' with iTunes about this very issue.  It's happened to me at least twice before when I redeemed a Gift card and didn't use the full amount.  A couple of weeks later... the 'credit' was gone!
    I also question as to why iTunes do NOT show gift card redemptions... VERY sus imho!!!  Why dont they??!!
    I have asked iTunes to provide me with a list of all my transactions for this year so I can see when, where and how my credits were used.  So far the best I got was "check your account balance".  They have said they will look into it from another side (ie. not via their customer support) but I will give them a week before I go to Fair Trading and make a formal complaint.
    I have provided them screen shots, dates, my purchase history etc. and the numbers just dont add up.  Either my credit balance expired (in the space of a couple of weeks) or someone is skimming accounts - which is on the iTunes system.  Either way iTunes have a case to answer!

  • What happens if you lose a store credit from a apple store?

    What happens if you returned something and got a store credit from the store, but lost the credit?

    Was it a retail store or the on-line store.   If it was the latter they should have a record of the receipt and be able to see if the receipt had been used (by you or someone else).  With a retail store it may be more difficult unless it was a big item or with previous history.

  • HT1539 What happens when you attempt to download a digital copy, but it doesn't upload in iTunes, and you're not allowed to use the code again?

    What happens when you attempt to download a digital copy, but it doesn't upload in iTunes, and you're not allowed to use the code again?

    Thanks for your reply, but you might have misunderstood it a bit. I'm NOT trying to buy a movie. ****, I'm not even in the actual Apple Store, when this happens I'm in the library not the Store part of iTunes.
    To clarify - I have purchased a physical copy of a movie which came with another physical copy which contains the digital copy. The digital copy is on the DVD, all I need is just to transfer this file to my iPod Touch, for example, I'm not trying to download it from the store or repurchase it and it's not any gift code that I've received, the digital copy is on the disc. This is the first time ever that I've purchased something on a disc and I'm not allowed to access it because the disc hasn't been purchased within my country.
    So again - I'm not attempting any purchase or download any purchased digital copy - it's on a DVD I own physically so... why is even the region of my Store relevant, the code I enter is (as I assume) just supposed to check if it's a legal genuine copy (which it is, as I've said - there are 6 discs in the pack: 3 movies on 3 Blu-rays and 3 DVD containing these digital copies of them). If I own it, I think that's proof enough that I have the right to use it. I just don't get it. I fully agree with you and understand your point if there was any purchase going on here, but it's not, it's just - I put a disc into my computer and I can't access it

  • HT4722 What happens if you opened FCP 7 before Motion 4? What should I do if I did it this way?

    What happens if you opened FCP 7 before Motion 4? What should I do if I did it this way?

    Hi Nick, thanks for responding.  Sorry I wasn't clear.
    What I want to figure out is regarding FCP X and FCP Studio in the same machine.
    I installed FCP X.  Moved the FCP X's applications into a folder.  I moved the FCP Studio Apps out to the root directory of my applications folder.
    But what I didn't do, is open Motion 4, before opening any other application form FCP Studio.  (This is what Apple recommends to do)
    Now every time I want to open a motion 4 file directly from FCP 7, the new motion 5 opens.  I'd have to modify files individually to "open with" motion 4.
    I am working in a school setting, (public computer) so I want to leave it easy for users...
    Thanks!!

  • What happens when you transfer contents?

    I have my desktop backed up on a MyPassport Ultra. This computer runs Windows Vista Home Premium.  I am in the process of setting up a new laptop with Windows 8.1 which I understand about this || much. What happens when you transfer the contents? I understand that you plug the MyPassport into the laptop and it should direct me how to install what has been backed up. But what will it look like on the new computer? Will the folders be in the same directories? Where will they be stored? And can someone confirm what will NOT be backed up and transferred? I was told it would be programs that I installed, such as Paint Shop Pro, etc.
    Would be very grateful for any assistance

    Well! That was so much more painless than I thought, LOL. The transfer went well and I had no problems finding the files, but I apparently have not set the rules for what to copy, right. I understand from p.46 of the manual, Backing Up Files, that you select what to copy from the drop down menu under the PC/Dropbox icon. In my case that only offers Acer  (C, Data (D, and MyPassport. I chose Acer (C, thinking it copies everything on the computer except program files. But it did not copy a specific category (?) named in this image "Working".  Can you tell me what I've done wrong so I can correct it before I lose something? It would be my luck.

  • Nokia, WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU????

    As a long-time Nokia fan, my first smart-phone could’ve only been another Nokia, or so I thought. 5530XM with its new and innovative Symbian 6.0 is the way to the future! What a poor decision! In only two months of ownership, it’s been sent back for repairs already (screen became blank) and wasted hours after hours trying to find solutions to problems like WiFi connectivity and interface manipulation. Seeking solution by phone didn’t help either: the call center personal will speak with you only if you wait at least 30 minutes on hold and another 15 providing all the personal information they can possibly require (it’s like an interrogation!).
    So here’s the latest challenge: what is the best way to update Ovi maps for my 5530XM on a  Win 7 x64 computer. In case you’re not aware, there are 5 (FIVE!!!) different applications that will supposedly help you find the way! So let’s count:
    -    Ovi suite
    -    PC suite
    -    Software updater
    -    Ovi maps downloader
    -    Ovi maps loader
    WHY???? Can somebody just tell me where do I have to go to figure this out? Which one do I need and for what purpose? I already used Ovi suite and maps downloader (according to both these applications I have the latest updates), but I’m having huge difficulties browsing the map (it’s mostly empty!!) and searching for addresses (cannot find them or if I do they in the middle of empty map space!)
    Nokia, WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU????

    To answer your Maps question...
    - PC Suite doesn't help you download Maps, all it contains is a link to the Map Loader application, which has been the main application for installing map data for some years.
    - Nokia Software Update is to update the phone firmware, it has no affect on map data but may install a new version of the Maps Application if the new firmware version has a new Maps version built in.
    - Ovi Maps Updater was to install the 3.01 version of the Maps application, and in doing so deleted old map data and replace it with up to date data after dealign with the app.
    - Ovi Suite will probably eventually replace all of these other tools under one roof, but the others all still exist because not all Nokia phones are yet compatible with Ovi Suite.

  • What happens when you AirDrop from Mac to iPhone and click Cancel?

    I have a Late 2013 27" iMac running OS X Yosemite 10.10 and an iPhone 6 Plus running iOS 8.0.2.
    I can take a PDF on my iMac, drag it to my iPhone in the AirDrop section of Finder, and it transfer to my iPhone just fine.  Once it's finished transferring, a popup shows on my iPhone asking me what app I want to open the PDF in, which is great.  At the bottom of that popup is a "Cancel" option.  My question is, what happens when you tap "Cancel" instead of one of the apps?  Is the file still somewhere on the iPhone?  Or does it get deleted?

    Connecting to a new computer or iTunes will always erase the device first. Back up manually before by right clicking on the iPod in the device list and choosing "backup". A manual backup does not include the sync process. You can use this backup to restore from after your iPod got wiped during the first sync.
    Transfer your purchases the same way and make sure to have at least one contact and event listed on your Mac, to be able to merge data.
    See also iTunes: About iOS backups to get more info about the content of a backup, and How to back up your data and set up as a new device , if you want to know more about saving info from the iPod before setting it up in iTunes.

  • Two part question 1) what happens if you  sign into messages beta on os x lion 10.7.5 after it expired? does the whole application not work or just imessage? 2) does installing messages beta on os x lion 10.7.5  delete ichat?

    Two part question
    1) what happens if you  sign into messages beta on os x lion 10.7.5 after it expired? does the whole application not work or just imessage? can you stil use AIM, jabbar, google talk, or yahoo?  if you open messages beta does it immediately tell you that messages beta expired?
    2) does installing messages beta on os x lion 10.7.5  delete ichat or just transform ichat into messages beta giving the illusion that ichat is deleted?

    Hi,
    It was never completely clear whether it was just hidden or whether Apple ran a download page for iChat 6.
    As the Download for Messages Beta was separate and "Deleted" iChat it would seem it would be another download for iChat 6.
    iMessages will not function as it is only an Account type within Messages and iChat 6 does not have it.
    Therefore messages on the iPhone will not sync to the Mac. (until you get Mountain Lion and Messages in that OS X version).
    Mountain Lion and it's full version of Messages will not sync the iMessages that have happened in between the 14th December 2012  (end date of Messages beta) and the Install of Mountain Lion if you decide on that route.

  • What happened to you?

    Just can't find you and I do not want to have this Google bar as
    my opening page. Can't fix with re-install. What happened to you and why is this so difficult without warning? Did I miss the memo? I just want to use firefox as my browser and I am not comfortable with Google for very much of anything. Can you help me simply recover the functionality of your browser and explain how your growth has done this to my desktop computer? I do not need mobile and I hope my bookmarks and info are safe till I can find out what happened and fix it. Thank you for your time.

    Set whatever webpage that you want as your homepage.
