Q: View APP purchase history on IPAD (not Mac)

I see this question asked and the answer always seems to be to open iTunes and click your account, etc.  this assumes I have a Mac computer, I don't

1.  I do not have a Mac

2.  Opening iTunes on my ipad IOS 6 there is NO account link

3.  Purchase history in the APPS store does not show credit card charges, only a list of all the apps I have, I want to see inapp charges, credit card charges and dates.

 

I only have an ipad, no Mac.   How do I do this?

iPad 2 Wi-Fi, iOS 6.0.1

A:

This isn't about attitude it is about logic and reason.  My attitude is negative based on justifiable causes, that apple, unlike ALL other major commerce sites, REQUIRES iTunes ...ON A FULL COMPUTER to view order history.  This should be a basic, fundamental component of their website.  Apple is in the dark ages, and if all you care about is attitude, that has no bearing on the issue and is a straw man fallacy

    Or any computer.  I need to know how to check on my ipad itself, or does apple just suck so bad they can charge my credi card on my ipad but won't let me check my account history on it?

    This is the reason I attempted to draw your attention using bold text. It is generally understood to mean something important. It's like typing in all caps but less obnoxious.

     

    Perhaps whatever you are using does not show bold text. It does on a Mac.

    Apple also sends you an email each time you make a purchase:

     

    Additional Information

    You receive an invoice by email each time your credit card is charged. An invoice is sent approximately every $20 or 12 hours, whichever occurs first.

     

    What you do with it is up to you.

     

    FYI some of the text above is bold as well.

    The best you can do is go to the Purchased Tab in either iTunes or The App Store App on your iPad.

     

    It will show you everything you've ever purchased with the Apple Id currently associated with the iPad.

     

    From there you can download them if you need to.

     

    If you need to know specifics such as what you paid for something, or the date of purchase, then you absolutely need a computer.to do so.

     

    You can borrow one and log into Itunes with your AppleId, and log off once you are done.

    Your answer is not an answer John.  People search these forums for answers and I know I not the only one with this question because a google search reveals that.  Let me use all caps in case you did not understand,  I HAVE NO COMPUTER.  When You give the same ole bad answer to a question, you make it harder for others to find answers by propagating misleading information. Someone finding this thread with the same problem will now have a convoluted answer that DOES NOT HELP.

    Let me spell this out for you John nice and easy.  If you do not know the answer please don't even bother.

     

    HOW DO YOU VIEW CREDIT CARD PURCHASE HISTOR ON YOU IPAD AND **ONLY** AN IPAD.

     

    I will be forced to repost this question after John destroyed my thread with misinformation.

    If there is no way to access purchase history on an ipad that is just poor design by apple, I fervor to Microsoft and google.  They can charge my credit card just fine on it, I should not need to switch to a computer to access my account.  Ridiculous

    I know, but does it make any sense?  I can't even view credit card purchases against my apple ID on the apple website...I am FORCED to go to a computer and open iTunes to see my purchase of tokens on IPAD poker.   Does this irrational nonsense seem logical?   The ipad is MORE then capable of displaying act info, especially since I can open my ipad safari and go to amazon.com and see all my history there.  Apple is in the dark ages

    Or maybe apple can improve its services and provide a basic logical function to its users

    It makes sense because they  have requirements that if you have a i device you should have a computer.
