Why won't words with friends download?
It keeps saying "the item you tried to buy is no longer available". I purchase the app months ago but I want to re-download it as it was not working properly.
I am experiencing the same problem. It became apparent when I updated my apps this morning. I received the "The item you tried to buy is no longer available" and only "Words with Friends" failed to update. 14 other apps updated without problem. I have tried the solutions mentioned above, but the problem persists and I receive the error every time I attempt to update or download "Words with Friends". I suspect that this must be a problem with the "Words with Friends" app and not a more generalized issue.

Why won't Words With Friends open in Firefox but works fine with IE?
The game "Words with Friends" worked fine until firefox update and Words with Friends new version. Now it will not open. Tried all the support suggestions to no avail. Then I tried it through IE and it works fine.
-> Update Firefox to the latest version 10

Perform the suggestions mentioned in the following articles:
* [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Template:clearCookiesCache/ Clear Cookies & Cache]
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]

May not be related to your problem but some of your Firefox Plugins are out-dated
* Update All your Firefox Plugins -> [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/]

Words with friends won't open on my IPad, it just shuts back down, what can I do to fix this?
Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

SInce downloading iOS i have not been able to play words with friends in landscape mode, emailed zinga and they cannot find a reason why. Before download i always played in landscape mode. People i know are also finding the same problem, even family, it rotates on other apps etc but not this,it will turn upside down but still in portrait mode, i and others have paid for this game for ad free. Help. Please
This would be an app issue, not an issue with Apple. If you can flip it upside down, your accelerometer is working fine and can sense what position you are holding you iPad, however, the app isn't allowing it to rotate. Just give them time, and I'm sure they'll come out with an update for the app that will have it working again.

I play Words with Friends HD Free on my I pad. The game locked up and I deleted from my I Pad. When I tried to download it from purchased or free downloads it won't download. I had done this before but not since updating to IOS 7.02. I need help please.
I don't know if this will work but it's worth a try. Sign out of your iTunes account on your iPad, restart the iPad and sign back into your account.
Go to Settings>Store - tap on your Apple ID and tap on sign out. Restart your iPad and then sign back in via Settings>Store - tap on sign in and enter your email and password. -
I am trying to download words with friends and itunes is saying it is no longer available for purchase. What is going on??I
First you need to research all the problems people are having with the higher OSX versions, & make sure you have a bootable clone of what you have just in case.
then you must get 10.6 if they still have it, install it & update to 10.6.8 so you have the App Store to buy & download the huge 10.8 Installer.
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
* Mac computer with an Intel processor
* 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
* 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
* DVD drive for installation
* Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
* Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...

It's been pulled from the online store & Apple Stores, so you have to call Apple to buy it, last I heard.
Call Apple Sales...in the US: 1-800-MY-APPLE. Or Support... 1-800-275-2273
Other countries...

I had previously downloaded Words with Friends (app was .99 cents). It has suddenly disappeared from my phone. Went back to the App Store to download it again, but it says it is installed. I can't find it? Any sugestions?
Scroll all the way to the left and type it in the search box, see if it pops up!

HT201272 i cannot download previous purchase of words with friends ?
I am unable to download purchased app words with friends cause they updated to higher ios.
Hi AndyTheAnimal,
To address your first concern, certain content may not be compatible with iTunes Match. The following article has more information (in the Additional Information section):
iTunes Store: Troubleshooting iTunes Match
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4054
Also, regarding the issue of not being able to play unless connected to WiFi, I found the following information:
iTunes Match on iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5637
By default, when adding an iOS device to iTunes Match, downloading over a cellular network is not enabled*. To enable downloading over cellular for iTunes Match, choose Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Use Cellular Data > On.
*Fees may be associated with downloading over cellular networks; contact your wireless carrier for details.
Thanks,

I purchased Words with Friends on my iPad. I then purchased an iPhone, however, this app is not showing up under "purchased". How can I download to iPhone without paying for it again?
Which version did you buy on your iPad ? If you bought the HD version then that is only compatible with the iPad, so you will need to buy the iPhone/Pod version (or download the free version) if you want to use it on your iPhone.

I bought some tokens to help on 'Words with friends' but they didn't download. I have the receipt for the purchase. How can I collect the tokens?
You will never receive a reply from Physios because they have discontinued the game and all support for it.

Words with friends app has a glitch where I loose sound constantly, so every time I re:download it, I'm having the same problem as its the same faulty app from iCloud.
I'm not seeing that problem with Words with Friends on my iPhone 5 with iOS 8.3. Check your sound settings.
Try the standard troubleshooting steps in this order:
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds). No data will be lost.
Restore: Connect your device to iTunes on your computer, backup, and then select Restore to Factory.
See here for more details on restore: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201252 -

I have downloaded the Words with Friends app on my imac but cannot locate it. Can anyone help please?
Check your Downloads folder for file possibly ending .dmg. If it's not there, and you use Safari check in its Preferences>General panel to see where downloads are directed to. If you use another browser check its preferences to see where downloads should go.

I just purchased a used 3rd generation Ipod Touch and the latest software is iOS 4.2.1 and I have been trying to download apps (Facebook, Words w/Friends, etc.), but they all say I need to have iOS 5. Help!
Here are some tools to search for compatible apps (The first one is my recommendation).
iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Vintapps 3.1.3 - paid app.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
I personally havent looked for any clones of Words With Friends, but I bet you can find something.
Here are a couple apps which say they are compatible with Facebook:
Chatnow for Facebook
Friends Planet 2
Quickly for Facebook with Video Chat
