Why do I have to pay for apps twice?

So I had many apps on my phone and then the 3Gs iphone wouldn't connect to anything so I had to get another one (my third in a year) when the phone was reset they droped the @email address off my screen name and now the phone wount sync to my itunes. Its stupid, same email address and password but now it thinks it a different account. So far its cost mt $8.00 bucks and I refuse to give apple any more money.

You need to fix your account if the screen name has changed. Once your information matches the original info, you won't have to pay to redownload apps.

Why do I have to pay for a app on my iPhone when I have it already on my Ipad

Why do I have to pay for a app on my iPhone when I have it already on my Ipad

That's up to the seller of the app. Many, but not all, apps will work on both the iPhone and iPad. For those apps that do you only need to pay for them once, as long as they were purchased with the same Apple ID. But app developers have the option of selling separate versions of their app for iPhone and iPad. For those apps you have to pay for them for each platform.

Why do I have to pay for free aps?

Why do I have to pay for free ads. I look in my bank
Statements and says they charge like 3 dollars but the ad

Don't buy things from the ap store. No I don't not download
Pro -aps.

The price of an app, and how it is marketed, is controlled by that app's developer. They certainly may advertise that an app is free, but the App Store price is the only price. If the App Store says the app is free (ie, the download button says "Free" instead of listing a price), then it's free.
If you are seeing a bill in your bank statement for a free app, that is probably coming from some kind of in-app purchase. Many apps have additional features or special game items that can be purchased within the app. A free app may still have such in-app purchases.
It's important to note that in-app purchasing should be a very transparent process. It should be made clear that you are making a purchase, and you should have to enter your Apple ID password. If you have found an app that does not make this process transparent, and hides the fact that a purchase with real money is being made, that needs to be reported to Apple as a violation of the App Store rules. If Apple agrees with you, they will remove the app from the store until the developer submits a more compliant update.

Why do I have to pay for iPages when I already have it on my computer?

My iCloud home page shows five icons including iWork. When I click on the iWork icon I am shown a link that takes me to the iTunes store where I am asked to pay $9.99 for each of the iWork components. I already have these installed on my iMac. Why do I have to pay for them again?

Different operating systems. Your iMac runs OS X and the iWork
applications you have on your iMac are written for OS X. On your
iDevice, the operating system is iOS and you would need a version
of the apps written for that. If you are not planninig to use the apps
on your iDevice (iPhone, iPad, some iPods), you do not need to
buy them. Having the apps on your iDevices provides instant
syncing of documents across the iDevices using iCloud. iCloud
does not provide Google App-like operation if that is what you are
seeking. If this does not answer your question, perhaps someone
else will chime in.

I have 2 Mac computers and I want to download Aperture 3 from the app store. Do I have to pay for it twice ?

I have two macs, a mac book air and a desktop mac. I want to buy Aperture 3 from the App store and get it to both computers,but I don't want to pay for it twice. Is there a way to do this?

No you don;t have to pay for it twice. Simply install it on one machine. Then go to the other. Log into the App store there and it will be on your pruchases list. Install from there.

HT4915 Why do I have to pay for iTunes Match subscription to delete songs I've previously purchased from iCloud?

From the support article, it seems that I have to pay for an iTunes Match subscription in order to permanently delete songs from iCloud. Is there a way to delete songs from iCloud without having iTunes Match?

You don't have to sign up to iTunes Match to play your iTunes music purchases through the iPad's Music app (if you've synced or downloaded them to the app). iTunes Match allows you to store your own music collection (e.g. copied from CDs, bought from other sites) in the cloud as well as the music that you've purchased from iTunes
From http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/ :
With iTunes in the Cloud, the music you buy from the iTunes Store automatically appears on all your devices.1 And for music you haven’t purchased from iTunes, iTunes Match is the perfect solution. iTunes Match is built right into iTunes on your computer and the Music app on your iOS devices.2 It lets you store your entire collection in iCloud, even music you’ve imported from CDs or purchased somewhere other than iTunes. When it’s in iCloud, it’s available on all your devices. So you can enjoy all your music anywhere, anytime — on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, PC, or Apple TV.

HT202879 Other Word Processors than Pages? & why do we have to pay for an upgrade that is incomplete?

I am very unhappy.
In order to access my documents from iCloud I have to upgrade to Mavericks (free, alright) and the new Pages, for which I have to pay.
The new Pages (and Numbers etc) does not have the same functionality as the one I have been using - yet I have to pay for it. Alright, Apple promises to upgrade in the next six months and add the new functionality. This is not good enough.
This was a very unpleasant surprise today - when I went to my document that I have been working on on my iPhone and my Mac at various times during the day and the Mac one had changed to 'Untitled 47' and the version on my iPhone would not open on my Mac unless I upgraded to the new Pages - $19.99 - and to OSX Mavericks - free - but I don't want to upgrade yet. And I don't want to pay for a new version of Pages that clearly does not have the same functionality(according to the user comments and the apple page that this discussion is about).
I have praised Apple to high heaven for the functionality of iCloud. But this really really annoys me.
If there's anything I hate its a company I am relying on forcing me to upgrade before they've sorted out the bugs.
I am definitely considering changing to a different company's word processor - if only they had a word processor that I could use on my Mac and iOS devices.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks Tom! Following your advice I posted a (shorter) version at feedback.
And thanks for those hints. Yes I've been looking at those ones.
IA Writer and Byword both can use the iCloud.
Writeroom only syncs using Dropbox.
Of course they're very minimal apps compared to Pages, or Word.
I feel very depressed.
Perhaps I will have to use one of these and then import into Word for final editing.
Believe it or not, for a minute I thought MS Word might be a contender for iOS syncing - because there is this thing called Office 365. But look at the reviews.

I really don't want to deal with all the problems of updating to Mavericks just now.

I have a mac 10.5.8, Why do i have to pay for the 10.6 update?

Friends of mine have Mac's and had the update with no hassle free of charge, so why do i have to pay?

Hi,
The current upgrade to Snow Leopard is only $29.00 available here.
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
The Apple Discussions TOU prevents us from discussing when the next upgrade will be available or how much it will cost.
See: Terms of Use
There's no guarantee you won't be able to upgrade directly from Leopard v10.5 to v10.7. You are better off upgrading to Snow Leopard now especially if you want to use the Mac App Store.

Why do i have to pay for os x 10.8.4 update

Just got new mac mini os x 10.8.3 software, gone online to update and had to pay for os x 10.8.4! Why

You don't have to pay for this version. Open  > Software Update, and install it for free, or download 10.8.4 from the Apple website > http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1659
If you have a new Mac, it's possible that OS X Mountain Lion doesn't appear as purchased in the Mac App Store. Instead, use OS X Recovery when you want to reinstall OS X > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718

You shouldn't have to pay. Try these steps to solve your problem - apparently you aren't the only one with this issue:

Why do i have to pay for my songs again?

I've bought a lot of music on Itunes,
and now i got myself a new MBP, and it takes a lot of time to find all the missing songs and when i find them i have to pay for them again...
Can this be true??

Re-downloading for free is not currently available in all countries (re-downloading and iTunes in the Cloud by country). Do the songs show on the Purchased link under Quick Links on the right-hand side of the iTunes home page on your computer's iTunes ? Or have you not got a backup copy of your purchases on, for example, an external drive that you can copy onto your Macbook Pro and add into its iTunes ?

Why do i have to pay for a battery repair if i am under warranty?

My battery has been having problems
It will say its at 50% and then drop to 1% and turn off
When i plug it in it will be around 45% depending where it was when it turned off
I went to apple and they told me they would replace it
When i went they told me i had to pay 79.99 to replace it
Why do i have to pay if im under warranty
The diganoses says the battery needs service

If the phone is within its one year warranty the battery replacement should be free. If Apple tests it and says it is defective. If their test says it is not defective then you have a software problem that can be fixed.
