Why I still have to pay for iWork on my new MacBook Pro ?

I bought a new MacBook Pro in last Friday ,25 October. But there is no iWork pre-installed in the system.(ps. The system is OS X 10.9 now) When I try to install iWork from App Store ,,it shows I still have to pay for $19.99 for Numbers. Could u tell what happened and what should I do?

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 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
    Says free. This isnt right nor is it fair I already paid 300
    For the itouch why charge me for the free aps. It's not like I
    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.

  • Why did I have to pay for pages for iPhone 5 running iOS 7?

    Why did I have to pay for pages for iPhone 5 running iOS 7?

    I thought the iWork suite was free for new devices running iOS 7...

  • HT1473 If I already own a song (from a different album) and the same song is in an album which I want to get, do I still have to pay for the song?

    Other details:
    First album/s- Dookie (Green Day), american idiot (green day)
    and 21st century breakdown (green day)
    Album with same songs in it- international super hits (green day)

    If I already own a song (from a different album) and the same song is in an album which I want to get, do I still have to pay for the song?
    Yes.
    The album which the song has been listed under (on the song's page) is listed in your library under that album. The song is then removed automatically from the first album
    No it's not.
    Purchasing a new song or album will not affect any other song or album in your library.
    In the case of the two albums you mention, if you purchase them both, you will have the same song (different copies) in both albums.

  • 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.

  • My lock button on my iphone broke, i have apple care, but will i still have to pay for it to be fixed when i send it in? and how will i get a loaner phone?

    The lock button on my iphone is jammed, and i need to send it in to get it fixed. Can someone explain the process to me of sending in your phone to apple? and even if i have apple care, will i still have to pay for my phone to be fixed? if so, around how much do you think this would cost? im not familiar with apple, so any help would be great! thanks!

    If your phone was damaged by you  or in accidental damage, then you would be liable to pay for the repairs.  Apple does not offer "loaner" phones, but if you have a credit card, they will "advance ship" a replacement to you so you can get it, then return your damaged one to them and as long as they get it back within a resonable time and it is warranty covered damage, they do not charge you for the replacement iPhone, but they do charge you a fee for the advanced replacement option (about $40-80 USD IIRC).
    You can eliminate all the at by making an appointment at a local AASP (Apple Authorized Service Provider) and they should be able to check your iPhone on the spot.  It it is covered under the warranty, they shoud replace it for free right there, and if not, they would let you know and you have the choice to make the repairs or not.

    Your warranty expired, so of course you will have to pay.

  • If I bought a game on my iPod that is also sold for the macbook do I still have to pay for it on the Mac?

    If I bought a game on my iPod that is also sold for the macbook do I still have to pay for it on the Mac?

    Yes. Because iOS and Mac OS X are two entirely different operating systems.

  • Why I dont have the OS X instead DVD with my MacBook pro?

    Why I dont have the OS X instead DVD with my MacBook pro?

    If you were running 10.7 or later, and had a normal install, there are two ways to get there
    Command-R at Startup is the usual method.
    Option key at Startup draws a gray screen and puts up an Icon for each Bootable Volume. Among them should be Recovery_HD. Choose that and proceed.
    The Recovery_HD partition is treated as a special case, and is NOT shown by default in Disk Utility. There are parameters you can change to get Disk Utility to show all partitions.

  • Have to pay for iWork 5.0 update?

    I bought an iWork disk 3 years ago and now I found that I have to pay for the latest update to 5.0 for Mavericks. is this the case or it will become free soon? thx

    I found another hint.
    Change the primary language to English and the Region to United States helps!
    Don't forget to restart your mac.
    After this I found the missing Apps (keynote, numbers and pages) in the updates list.

  • 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.

  • 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 ?
