iTunes Downloading Duplicate Copies of Apps
I have a VPP account, and I have installed apps on 250 iPads using configurator. Some of the apps that we purchased have been updated since we deployed the iPads. For example, QuickOffice is now on version 5.x as opposed to version 4.5 that we put on the iPads when deployed. I want to update the Apps in configurator so that any future iPads that I configure will have the most up-to-date versions of the apps. I have tried to update the app files (.ipa) through iTunes, but whenever I do, it gives me the following message:
So, like the obedient user I am, I "Check For Available Downloads." And there are literally over 700 downloads. These are all repeats of iMove, QuickOffice, and GoodNotes. Like, 250 of each. And it will download each and every one and just replace the old .ipa file. Over and over. To make things worse, it's not even the updated version, just the version that was available when we purchased the apps! I know this because I deleted the original .ipa's and checked out the new ones only to find they were the out-of-date version (e.g. the version of QuickOffice that just downloaded was 4.5, not the new 5.0.1 even though the new version has been available for a while.)
Any suggestions other than wating and seeing what happens after those 3 apps download 250 times apiece? I don't feel like wasting that much time only to find out that the apps still are the old version.
