Can I download already paid for apps on my iPad? I'm wondering about Pages, Numbers, and also GoodReader.

IN some cases an app Can be IN two versioner an iPhone and iPad version and you Can buy it 2 times but more often you Can only buy it once

If an app has a little + sign by the download button, then it's a universal app and scales up or down to suit whatever device it's on. they'll look good on both ipad or iphone.

You can put phone only apps on an iPad, you'll just see this little X2 button when you open the app, asking if you want to keep it phone scale or if you want to 'zoom in' to ipad scale. Some look good, some don't. All depends on how good the resolution was on the original app.

I had a Touch and when I bought my iPad, I put all the touch/phone scaled apps onto the iPad, Some I kept, some I did not. Some I have tolerated a bit fuzzy because I didn't want to rebuy them, others I purchased the iPad version.

But as long as you use the same apple ID, you can use the same apps (the biggest caveat, while you can put phone ones on the ipad, you can't put ipad ones on the phone)

I find it takes a while for the i-Devices to find all the apps I've purchased in the App Store.

A faster way is to look on iTunes on your computer if that's convenient. Presumably all your purchased apps are recorded there in your Apps section, and you can simply sync them to your iPad.

Bear in mind also, there are thousands of folks that have unwrapped and are trying to set up their devices. I'd imagine the servers are a wee bit swamped 🙂

patience is the word of the day
