    This is a users' forum. You need to contact Apple Education for sales information.

     

    AFAIK you can't buy Server via Apple Education, you need to buy it via VPP.

    Thank You... Problem is I need to purchase it with School Purchase Order.  VPP has a problem with my Apple ID because I used it to redeem earlier software on my servers as apple ID and now cannot use as Program Facilitator Apple ID. You know whom I can contact to straighten out me apple ID conundrum? Life was simple when you could just buy it and they shipped the software to you.

    It depends which country you are in but, for example, go to:

     

         http://www.apple.com/contact/

     

    and in the section 'How to buy for Education' half way down the RHS it says:

    If you are buying on behalf of an educational institution, visit the Apple Store for Education Institutions or call 1-800-800-2775, 7 days a week from 5:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Pacific time.

    Find a telephone and then...

     

    I suspect that you will have to set up a new Apple ID and use it wholly and exclusively for VPP purchases. If you really have to use a PO then there is (or at least used to be) a work round that involved buying iTunes gift cards from Apple with the PO and then redeeming them in the App Store. Do that a couple of times and your finance officer will probably authorise use of an institutional credit card
