Why can't I download my apps that I have purchased already without putting my password in?

I need help

Apps are forever associated with the Apple ID used to buy them.  If you are asked to enter the password, that means the current ID you are logged in as is not the ID that was used to buy the app.  Hence you must enter the password for the ID used to purchase the apps.

    Yes.  Log into MacAppStore with the AppleID that purchased them.

  • HT5622 Can't I download the apps that I've purchased in other country's appstore?

    I've purchased several apps including Keynote, Numbers and Pages while I was in Korea. Now I am in the US and using the same Apple ID. Can't I download these apps? Should I purchase them again?
    Thanks

    You can either switch back to the Korean store or go to their individual product pages in the USA one while logged in with the same Apple ID. It may look like it'll charge you again, but it'll realize that you already paid for them just before it does.

  • Why can I not read an ebook that I have purchased on my computer using itunes?

    I purchased an ebook on itunes, downloaded it to my computer and selected it to start reading... it gives me the message: This book can't be viewed using this computer. You can view this book using iBooks on your iOS device.
    I am so incredibly furious that I can't use something that I have bought while using the program that I bought it from.
    If anyone has a solution pls help.
    please do not answer with "use your iOS device" or "get a mac." I don't have either, nor do I want them. I just want to listen or read the things that I have bought plain and simple.

    The message is correct.  You cannot read an Apple iBook on a PC.

    Get the Kindle app for PC, and buy your e-books from the Kindle Store.  They can be read on a wide variety of devices.
    As for the Apple iBook, you already bought, I guess you now realize it was a shopping error.  If you feel  the product was misrepresented, contact iTunes Customer Service.

  • Why can I not download any apps to my Itouch Gen 2?

    Why can I not download any apps to my Itouch Gen 2?
    SO, I just purchased 2 4th gen ITouch’s and a 2nd gen Ipad for my kids. All is well and fine however my second gen device is toast so I am using one of my kids older 2 gen ITouch. My kids had been complaining that they could not download anything on the 2nd gen devices but I figured they were doing something wrong, my bad. The device has Netflix that works just fine but I am finding that if I were to delete the app and did not have it backed up I would not be able to get it back from the appstore. The device has been taken care of and is in good working order,  but I am finding that Apple has chosen to no longer support IOS4.2.1 which I get. However I would expect that at a minimum I would be able to download any app that was available for the 4.2.1 os at the time the next version was released.
    Drive space it cheap and ****** off customers are expensive.
    Apparently Apple has planned obsolescence built into their business plan which I am finding pretty hard to swallow.
    I just purchased over a grand worth of new devices and I am wondering if that was wise since apparently apple will deem them obsolete in a couple of years. That great because the newer devises are great, however I have a devise that there is nothing wrong with and apple has made the choice to no longer support the devise and not allow applicable software downloads making the devise basically useless. This is not supporting your customers!
    I would hope that Apple changes their posture on this planned Obsolescence and backs its products durability with the ability to get applicable apps for the actual lifetime of the devise and not some 2 year window.
    I brought my concerns to the nearest apple store where they gave me some song and dance about how the older devise was not fast enough. This is probably true for the newer apps but I think if this was a limitation then ITunes should make the newest version of the app at the time of the app is available for the devise.
    Like I said drive space is cheap and this is like a row in some database.
    I am wondering if I will continue to buy apple products.

    If that does not work, because of a forgotten password or security questions, or because your account has been disabled for security purposes, you need to give Apple Support a call - only they will be able to help you.

  • Why can't I download Pandora app on iPod touch 4th generation?

    Why can't I download Pandora app on iPod touch 4th generation?  When I search for the Pandora app in the App Store it comes up and shows that it is free, but it does not allow me to click on the button to download it.  The Free button is not highlighted.  No problem downloading any other apps. I appreciate any suggestions. Thank you!

    It might be incompatible with the current version of software on your ipod Touch.

  • My iPhone wont let me download some apps that i have payed for on on my account; it says my iPhone is not authorized for this computer, but it is.

    My iPhone wont let me download some apps that i have payed for on on my account; it says my iPhone is not authorized for this computer, but it is.

    No, iTunes never says an iPhone is not authorized.
    This is occurring on a computer, correct?
    Is the computer authorized for the account the media or apps were acquired with?

    The download does not install Flash. You should find the downloaded file in your Downloads folder. Double-click on the .dmg file then double-click on the installer icon once the disc image has been mounted.

  • How can I use apps that I have purchased from Apps Store for Mac on my iPad2?

    how can I use apps that I have purchased from Apps Store for Mac on my iPad2?

    Thanks, varjak, it is too easy to fall into use of jargon assuming everyone understands what it means.
    One additional point in all of this, not all "iDevice" apps run on every "iDevice".  Some are customized for a specific device, or class of devices such as the iPod/iPhone with their smaller screen.  Others for just the iPads for their larger screens.  So the user needs to be sure they are getting an app that will work on their specific device.
    And to Phoneboone, you do need to purchase the app again if it is for a different class of equipment.  When you are looking at apps such as iWorks for the Mac and iWorks components for the iPad, the iPad versions are very inexpensive.  Pages is only $10 (US) which is really cheap for such a good word processor that reads and saves in the MS Word format.
    Anyway, search for what you need and just enjoy the convenience of so many options for apps.
