Why isn't iWork apps not free yet after IOS7 update ?

Apple did say that IWork would be free, but it is not free as IMovie still has the original price, is it for certen devises or is there a problem on the store?

The advertisements leading up to the release of iOS 7 let me to believe that I work would be free for everybody. Apparently that is not the case. I was a little disappointed to find out but now it is only free for new devices activated after September 1 however upon looking at the reviews and how horrible they are I'm  not disappointed at all in fact you couldn't pay me to use iWork so thanks but no thanks Apple once again.

  • Why are the iWork apps not free FOR ME?

    This might be a pretty old question, but lately I came to know that iWork apps were/are free for iOS 7 running devices, and my iPhone 4s which runs on iOS 7.1.2 and I activated it JUST 4 DAYS BEFORE SEPTEMBER 2013 (And many say, those who activated their iDevices after September 1st of 2013 are eligible to download iWork apps for free) is not able to get those apps for free. So is there any trick on refreshing/re-activating my account so that I get those apps (iPhoto, iMovie, Pages etc.) for free? Not being mean, but I feel so embarrassed for not activating my phone just after 4 days so that all those apps which I needed most would have been free (And ofcourse I did not know They would come for free if I had activated my phone afer 4 days ).

    The offer for free iWorks apps is date dependent. If you purchased it prior to the eligible date, no, you are not entitled to them for free, and there is no trick to getting them. you will need to purchase them.

  • Why isn't the App Store letting me install and update apps to my iPod Touch 3 Gen.?

    Why isn't the app store letting me update or install Apps?

    Because like a computer, you always need more space that the download size takes up.  One reason is that the app needs to be expanded to be installed.

  • App password stopped working after IOS7 update

    iPhone:  3rd party app purchased via iTunes App Store.  "My Disk" worked great, until I did the IOS7 update, then the password stopped working.
    Creator, "Weihe Mo" will not answer emails or FaceBook IM's.  I'm at my wit's end.  Is there any way to break through a password for an App?

    So the password for the app is no longer letting you into the App? You were right to contact the app developer for support, because it is a non-Apple applicaiton. Apple has nothing to do with the app or being able to make it work. Keep hounding the developer for support, that is your only avenue of approach for this.

  • IPad 2 stuck on RESTORE (not recovery) mode after iOS7 update

    My update to iOS7 seemed to go OK, now I got to "Restore from backup/iTunes" and here's where things turned sour.  I actually SAW glimpses of iOS7 on the iPad and went through the Hello screen and WiFi setup etc.
    It's now stuck on the black screen with white Apple in the middle and little white line progress bar under it - but that progress bar has only made it about 1/8 of the way to the end and seems completely froozen.  It's not a 500TB iPad - this should only take a few minutes at most.  something is wrong.
    The only USB items I have connected are my keyboard and iPad 2 - nothing else.  And they are direct into the Mac.
    So yea, updating to iOS7 bricked my iPad.

    It took multiple attempts but this finally just resolved itself.  go figure.

  • IPad 4 is not sending messages after ios7 update.

    I have been using iMessage frequently over wifi ( I don't use SMS option) but now message fails to send after installing ios7. Have checked all settings and account seems fine. Have tried a reset but still no joy. The sending bar gets 95% of the way across the screen and then stops, shortly followed by the dreaded red exclamation mark!

    Thank you for trying to help. I had read this info before posing the question and was able to check and confirm that both imessage and FaceTime were validated and using my proper account details. I have also checked contact details to make sure nothing got altered during the ios update. Unlike others I have seen in the media, I had no error messages whilst installing ios7 and everything seems to be working just fine - except of course for imessage. My wife who also has an ipad and who updated the day after I did is having exactly the same problem?
    We have both regularly used imessage and FaceTime before.

  • Ipad does not turn off after ios7 update

    I recently updated my ipad 2 to the iOS 7.3 update.  I left it alone to update because I knew it would take some time.  I set it up and then had to leave my ipad to take care of my baby.  I came back and it wouldn't turn on.  I figured it had run out of juice so I charged it all day today and it still won't turn on.

    Try rebooting...
    press and hold the home and power buttons until the Apple icon is displayed, then let go.

  • Why isn't iWork free on iPad mini

    why isent iwork free for ipad mini with IOS 7.0.4

    The iWorks apps are free on a newly purchased iOS device running iOS 7. If you downloaded iOS to an existing device, (one that you bought prior to September 2013) you have to pay for the apps.
    If your Mini is new, the apps are free as long as you are using the Apple ID in the App Store that you used to activate the device. Go to the App Store and search for them and see if they show up as "free" for you. If they don't - and you do meet all of the criteria - give it a little time and they will eventually be free for you to download.
    When I bought my iPhone 5S, I had to wait until the next day before the showed up as free for me.

  • Why isn't pages and keynote free anymore

    why isn't pages and keynote free anymore ? it was free about a month ago ?

    Today I was in the Apple Store here in Munich and had my first bad experience with Apple.
    When I talked to one of the employees and asked how I can get the free Pages for my MacBook Pro he interrupted me and said: "I don't know." When I tried to explain that it was listed in the App Store app in Mavericks and it is not there anymore in Yosemite, he interrupted me again and was quite harsh: "I can't help you. Call Apple Care, that's what they are there for."
    Maybe it was my fault. He had to stop a chat with a female co-worker because of a customer. That was not nice of me.
    As I don't want to pay 29 €/$ just to ask where Apple has hidden the gratis Pages software, I will take part in a Pages Workshop and hope I can get help there.

  • Why ebooks on ibooks is not available yet in philippines

    why ebooks on ibooks is not available yet in philippines

    Apple can sell things where the content providers have given them licenses to sell them - so if the book publishers haven't given them licenses to sell their ibooks in the Philippines then Apple can't sell them there.
    Until if/when the book publishers grant Apple licenses, do you have access to other ebook apps/stores that you can use instead ?
