Q: How do you sync the free iWork and iLife apps to multiple supervised devices?
So, I have a number of 4th gen iPads that are eligible for the free iWork and iLife update. I downloaded all the apps manually to one device, but was wondering how you can do this with multiple devices at once. If I try to add the apps in Configurator it asks for codes, because we have these apps downloaded already and on older devices. Configurator does not dinstinguish between the older and newer devices.
I tried making a backup of the first iPad that has the apps and pushing that out on Configurator, but the apps did not transfer. Do these need to be side loaded? Is there another way? I am trying Settings > iTunes and App Store > Sync apps across devices, and having all ipads logged in with the same account. But, no sync of apps yet, and not even sure that will work...
Ideas?
iPad, iOS 7.0.4
