I'm Using my iPhone 3G and haven't backup it as frequently as I should and would like to know what software I've bought for it. So I know I don't have to pay for it again. Yes I can try and buy the software but I want to know of all the apps I've bought.   I know some apps wont be available for my old iPhone but they will work if I buy a new one. I need to know how much money I will lose in Apps I can't use anymore. If I buy a new phone that isn't an iPhone.   So How can I find out what Apps I've bought for my iPhone.  I have both Windows and Mac computers available.   The mac computer runs Mac os X 10.6.8, the iPhone 3G runs iOS 4.1.2

When you attempt to download an app that costs money, you will not be charged if you already bought the app. After you press buy and enter your iTunes password, it will say "You have already purchased this item. To download it again for free, select OK."  The problem is that I deleted hundreds of apps from my phone, some of which were paid for. Later on I might find an app I like but notice that it costs money. It might be an app I had already paid for, or an app which I got when it was free.  How can I know if I tap the buy button if I will be charged for the app or not?  In other words, how can I know if I owned a previous version of an app before?

I would like to take control of my app on an iOS device (mostly an iPhone) from my MacBook Pro or Windows, doesn't matter which one.  I know that it can be accomplished via Veency, and that's exactly what I need - but I do NOT want to jailbreak my iPhone.  Is there a similar legal alternative?  If not - is it something I could develop perhaps, or will I run into some SDK limitations for such a thing?

I'm trying the free version of an app, and I'm considering to upgrade to the Premium version. The said app is .  From what I see, the Premium version in not directly available on Play Store, and it can be purchased only in-app.  How do these purchases work? If I  uninstall the app then reinstall it later, or if in the future I change my phone, this purchase will still be recognised?  Will I be able to use the full version again without having to pay once more for it?   It appears that the purchase is managed by Google Play:

I bought many iOS Apps on various iPads and iPod touchs. This Wednesday I will have my first Mac, a Mac Mini, so my question is: Will I be able to download these Apps without any charge, if they are available on Mac Store?  I ask this because I have been watching some videos and have seen GarageBand on the Mac but I don't know if it's the same App. I know that the App Store and Mac Store are different, but, like some Apps on AppStore have a plus symbol on their icons corners saying these Apps can be run on iPad, iPod touch and iPhone I wonder whether there will be some Apps for both iOS and the Mac.  Also, I don't know if GarageBand was released on Mac before iOS devices.

I gave my old iPhone 3GS (iOS 5.0) to a friend, and after removing the SIM card, we noticed a peculiar behavior. My friend is able to send texts via iMessage from the old phone number. Likewise, I can receive texts from this number.  Has anyone else noticed this? I am assuming the iMessage servers register phone numbers for compatible devices. But what happens if someone else claims this number?

Sometimes it's hard to search for older versions of macOS &amp; OS X  on the App Store.  This is an attempt to provide the canonical QA for this issue, as per the Meta QA -  I expect it to be modified over time to hopefully become a complete information resource.  How can I get any older version of a Mac OS to be able to run as a VM, or to reinstall on my Mac?

I have both an iPod touch and an iPhone (yes, redundant, I have my reasons), none of them are jailbroken. Some apps I own are installed on both devices, I would like to copy an app's save from one device onto the other. I know that there are apps for jailbroken devices to backup saves but I was wondering if there's a method that doesn't involve jalbreaking (by a third party PC/Mac tool, for example).  (Side note: I know that restoring one device's backup on the other device will transfer all the apps states but that will mean wiping the device completely)

The answer of  explains that it is to install apps bought on the Mac App Store on multiple computers.  My problem is a little bit different. I moved to another country and I had to change the country also in my iTunes profile, due to my new credit card. As a result my iTunes store, App Store and Mac App Store are now associated to the new country.  How can I access and download my purchased Apps on my new MacBook Pro?  Probably one solution would be to change again the country, but it wouldn't be optimal.

I am now using the 3-month free trial of Apple Music. Yesterday, I downloaded a few albums into my iPhone. If I do not join the subscription after the free trial period, will the songs still be in my iPhone?

A friend of mine found an iPhone 6 in a festival but she didn't have a way to charge the phone for a couple weeks. She is a maid here in Brazil and didn't have the proper charger neither knew how to use the phone. When she finally gave the phone to me to charge and try to find the owner, I've found out that the phone had an iCloud activation lock.   We took the phone to the carrier but they said that the sim card was deactivated already and belongs to a corporate account with more than 100 numbers associated.   Is there a way for me to contact the owner via Find My iPhone or iCloud? If I wipe the phone, start over and try to activate will that notify the owner via Find My iPhone? If that happens maybe I could just put another valid sim card and wait for the person to text me via iCloud and I can text him back to see how I can return.  I don't want to take it to the police because I'm pretty sure they will just sell the parts (the Brazilian police are super corrupt) and I really want to return this phone because I lost mine already in the past and I was very glad that the person who found returned it to me.

I just recently got an iPod Touch and wanted to download some free apps. The App Store wanted me to get an Apple ID, no problem. But now it's telling me to input a credit card. I don't have one, and anyway shouldn't need one to download free apps.   I did some searching here and on Google and found out that there should be a "None" option when selecting credit cards, but it was not there. I then read that it's disabled in some countried, so I tried telling iTunes that I'm in the US (I'm in Argentina), but still no "None" option. Later, I read that apparently this feature was disabled in iTunes 10, so I installed iTunes 9, but I still don't get the option.  How can I get the No Credit Card option to appear when downloading an app for the first time? It doesn't make sense that you should need a credit card for free stuff.  EDIT: To clarify, I already made an account in Apple's website, I'm looking for a way to be able to select "None" when buying an app through iTunes.

Basically I have my iPhone w/ iOS 7.0.4 jailbroken using the latest evasion software.   I recently ran out of battery, and when I had managed to recharge and get my handset back on, all of my apps (apart from the stock apps that come with the phone) are all gone. No other data is missing, e.g , music, pictures and videos.   When I go to, settings, general, and usage. I can clearly see that my memory is still being taken up by all the apps I "had" on my phone (2.1gb free) yet the apps still aren't there. I'm usually good with tech, especially Apple. But this one has me stumped.

I'm currently on the beta program on my iPhone. How can I stop using the beta versions and go back to the newest version of iOS (non-beta)?

Is there a way to determine the device running an application. I want to distinguish between iPhone and iPod Touch, if possible.

It's cumbersome to sync with iTunes to get a crash report. I'm looking for an app that can view and copy/paste or email crash reports from any other app on my iPhone. I want to see the full stack trace from the crash.  Is there an app for that?

Sometimes it's desirable to use a device on a carrier that does not officially sell it. Often this is due to regional differences and travel (for example, using a US phone in Europe) but also because some carriers simply do not offer phones that other carriers do.  How can I determine if it's possible to use my phone on a different carrier, and which carriers it is compatible with?    This community wiki is intended to be a canonical answer to a common question. If you feel that improvements could be made then please edit the post(s).
