You sell an older iphone; will apps transfer over to a new user?

You sell your iphone 4; to someone; who presumably registers it as their own; will the 300 apps you have on it transfer over to the new user?

Yes, if you set up the new phone to the same Apple ID and iTunes account you used to purchase the apps.  Your content is tied to your account and Apple ID, not the device.
The easiest thing to do is to back up the old phone before you sell it.  When you first connect the new phone to iTunes, choose to restore from backup.  You new phone will be nearly the same as your old phone (it may not put everything on there perfectly - I've had some folders messed up and had to re-organize some apps, but nothing really major).

  • I didn't back up my old iPhone when I got a new one. If I put my SIM card in my old iPhone and backup everything, will it transfer over to my new one?

    Just back it up to your computer using iTunes By connecting it to your compute, launching iTunes, then going to File>Devices>Back Up (transfer purchases of prompted).  Then restore the iTunes backup to your new phone.

  • Some recently purchased songs will not transfer over to my new ipod nano. Why is this happeneing?

    I just got an Ipod Nano 7th generation. Most of the songs that I had in my library will sync over with some exceptions. I just purchased two songs for my old Ipod touch and when I try to sync my new Ipod with my old library, those songs aren't even recognized. That's amazing considering I bought them from the Itunes store?

    Well usually syncing or dragging should work. I might be able to help but it could be a bit fiddly. You could get your music from itunes and put it into a seperate folder out of i-tunes then drag it into your ipod from there? I'm not sure but you could try.

    You can only sysc with one iTunes library. The new computer is a new library. You have to restore your iPod on the new conputer and then sync.

  • Music purchased on iPhone will not transfer

    I recently purchased an album on my iPhone and no matter what I do (have tried every transfer purchases menu I can see) the music still remains in the purchased file on my iPhone and will not transfer over to iTunes.
    I have tried de-authorizing and re authorizing the computer to no avail. The album WILL NOT transfer over.
    When I go into the purchased menu under my iPhone in the devices list the album is grayed out, but there.
    Help?

    Hi,
    Make sure you are signing-in to the iTunes Store with the correct AppleID.
    Try checking the iTunes Store purchases for the account as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2727
    If you don't see the music, that you want to sync from the iPhone to iTunes, you may be signed in with another AppleID.
    If you do see the music try to transfer the purchased content as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 ,
    You can contact U.S. iPhone technical support at: 1-800-MY-IPHONE (1-800-694-7466)

    You want to go from FCE to FCP-X?
    You would need to do so in multiple steps.
    1) You would need to be working in a very late version of FCE.
    2) Open the FCE project in FCP-7.
    3) In FCP-7, export an XML of the sequence you wish to get to FCP-X.
    4) Purchase the software 7toX
    http://assistedediting.intelligentassistance.com/7toX/
    5) Import the XML into 7toX, export the FCP-X friendly file
    6) Import the converted XML into FCP-X
    7) Re-link all you media
    It should be noted that when you use XML, not all the things you have done in your original sequence will make it through the final translation. There is more information about this at the 7toX page linked above.

  • Transfer iWeb site to new user

    I designed a site on one .mac account and want to move it to another .mac account I run so that the URL is different. I've set up another user on my computer so iWeb will upload to the appropriate .mac account, but... how do I import the previous iWeb-designed data over to my new user? I've tried dropping the User/username/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain file into the new username (same location) but when I try to upload it says "You don't have permission to make changes to that file".

    when I
    try to upload it says "You don't have permission to
    make changes to that file".
    What exactly does the "upload" mean here? When you try to publish?

  • My purchased music on my iphone will not transfer to my itunes library. I have tried 'transfer purchases' but it hasnt worked. Please help!

    Please help me. I recently got a new laptop fro Christmas and i have begun to sync all my music and apps etc onto my new laptop. However, music that i have previously purchased on my iphone will not sync to my current laptop. I have tried 'transfer purchases' but only some have transfered, i still have over 200 songs to import and they won't transfer from my iphone to my laptop. Please help, it is very irritating. Thanks.

    Unless the iPhone was purchased  as unlocked very recently directly from an Apple Store (the only place in the US where unlocked iPhones are sold, and then only since June), which from the symptoms I doubt is the case, then it was locked to AT&T and jailbroken to make it work with an Irish cell carrier. Updating the operating system has now relocked the iPhone back to AT&T.
    Only the cell carrier can institute an official unlock, one which will hold across updates of the operating system, and AT&T will not do so for any reason. All we can advise here is that you return the iPhone to your uncle and purchase an iPhone there in Ireland.
    Regards.

  • Sell iBook in iPhone/iPad app?

    We are developing an iPhone/iPad app, now we are inrtessted to publish text with app purchase created by the iBook author,
    Is that allowed to do that with considering the Eula.

    If you sell a .ibooks file, it needs to be sold from your site using your transaction process. Your app cannot have a 'buy' button for that and can only be used to send the user to your site.
    From the App Review Guidelines:
    http://developer.apple.com/appstore/resources/approval/guidelines.html
    Apps that link to external mechanisms for purchases or subscriptions to be used in the app, such as a “buy” button that goes to a web site to purchase a digital book, will be rejected

  • How do I get my iPhone 4 to transfer purchases to a new computer?

    I got a new computer (Windows) and I want to switch my iPhoneover so I don't have to use my old computer to sync anymore.  I did the "backing up the original library and restoring it onto the new computer" thing, but that apparently didn't copy over all the songs that were in my library because I should have just over 1600, give or take a few that I bought on my phone and never transferred over to the computer, but it only lists 871 songs, and it refuses to transfer purchases from my iPhone saying "you need to authorize this computer." I authorized and deauthorized and reauthorized, but it still says it needs to be authorized. When i click authorize, at this point, it lets me go through authorization...only to tell me "this computer is already authorized."
    I'm incredibly frustrated and am at my wits end. I cross-checked the songs that are on my computer to the ones that are on my actual phone and a lot of my absolute favorites aren't on my computer so I don't want to just sync it and lose them all, but I'd like to be able to sync my phone to my computer so that I can update and put some new audiobooks on it because I listen to a lot of audiobooks at my job.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Make sure iTunes on the computer is logged into the account on the phone.
    Plug the iPhone in.
    In the popup window warning about wiping your phone, hit cancel.
    In the left pane of iTunes, the phone icon should be there.
    Right click on it, select transfer purchases.
    Note: this will only transfer music bought from iTunes. Not mp3's from amazon or ripped from CD's.

    i'm a new user on iPhone. My sister gave me her old iPhone that she bought in UK, she she it here in the Philippines and i'm having problems because i can't use it. i already restored it to set it up new but i couldn't still activate it. It says, " Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server cannot be reached." and "The SIM card that you currently have installed in this iPhone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information."
    what should i do for me to be able to use it?
    please help!
    Thank you very much!

    It is locked to your sisters carrier.
    She would have to ask her carrier if they unlock iPhones and if she qualifies for this service.
