I have one apple account and one apple ID. I have several devices under that ID. Why when I download and app on one device it goes on all devices?

- What exactly happens when you try to redownload directly to the iPod:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
- You said it won't open the app . What exactly happens?
Is the app listed is your Purchase history?
Do you have any Restrictions set that would prevent installing those apps? Settings>General>Restrictions

Hello all,
when i update apps on my iphone they need the ID that i used when i downloaded these apps and i forgot this ID and a make a new ID
How i used the new one to update these apps?
thanks

Your device can hold apps from multiple IDs, but to update them you have to swicth identities which is time consuming. If possible use only the one ID. If you need to reset the password for your old ID visit My Apple ID.

HT4623 When I download an app it doesn't request access to photos and am unable to do it after the fact as the app isn't on privacy to allow me to do it

WHen I download an app it isn't able to access my pics and I can't do it after the fact either as it isn't in privacy to add

Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

Add one more disgruntled user to the list. First noticed that I couldn't download upgrades on my iPhone. It would prompt for password as normal, would briefly show "waiting" on the app icon and then just stops with app store still showing update. True deleting the app and installing from iTunes. This worked, but iTunes library had old version of app so it still showed an upgrade. I then deleted the app from the phone and iTunes and that is when I started getting the 11111 error. I've since discovered that I can download any new content to any of my linked iDevices, but cannot download any type of previously purchased content. No previously purchased music not on device, no previously purchased uninstalled apps, no installed app upgrades, etc. ALL show up in purchased content lists, but when you attemp to download it appears to be starting and then simply fails with no errors on the iDevice(s). I've also tried signing out of my account in settings - store, performing a hard reset and then signing back in, but alas, no success.
C'mon Apple, obviously a problem that is happening to numerous users and it started happening to us all at the exact same time. You got us iAddicted, now give us our iFix.

Hi, kelshalls.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that your device becomes unresponsive when installing an App. If this issue persists, try forcing all applications to close and restart the device.
Force an app to close in iOS
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

When I download an APP the icon says Waiting?

When I download an App from my PC to IPad2 the icon on the ipad screen says Waiting. This has happened on 3 downloads so far. What can I do? I already did a soft reboot. Thanks

If you are downloading multiple apps then they should download one after another. Have you tried tapping on them to see if that restarts them ? Or downloading them on your computer's iTunes and syncing or dragging and dropping them across to the iPad ?
By a soft reboot do your mean a reset : pressing and holding both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear (it doesn't remove any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot).

When you download an app is it downloaded when it fully loads or when you click buy?

Hi Guys,
I was wondering:
When you download an app does it count as a download when you click
buy app or when it fully loads?
Thanks

There is nothing anyone else here can say. None of us work for Apple, and only Apple knows exactly at what point they register the purchase for the purposes of the contest. All we know is what Apple states in their official rules:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/25-billion-app-countdown/rules/index.html
and they don't say exactly when the purchase is recorded.
Again, you'll just have to take your best shot.
Good luck.
