Q: iWork from macbook air mavericks to iPad

Hello,

 

I would like to know how to get iwork to my ipad.

 

Rececntly, last week, I bouth a macbook air at a retail store in Colombia, it comes with iwork, and ilife. I sign in with my apple id, and update the apps, so far no problem. The thing is, its suppose that in my ipad and iphne they should be free to install as well, but in itunes on my macbook air says 9.99, and in the appstore says installed??? no understand how is that posible???

 

Anyway, my question is how to transfer the iwork to my other devices since in the itunes does not apear like free with my account.

 

Thanks very much in advance for your help.

iPad 2 Wi-Fi, iOS 7.0.6, crush

A:

The versions of iWork and iLife that you have installed on your Mac are only for Macs, if you want them on your iPad then they are separate purchases - they are different operating systems.

 

When did you buy and activate your iPad and iPhone ? If you activated them on/after September 1st last year then some of the apps should be free to download (if you are logged in on the iPad/iPhone with the same account that you activate them with) - if it was on/after 1st September then try logging out of your account on your iPad/iPhone (whichever was activated after 1st September) by tapping on your id at the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app and then log back in and see if they show as free.

 

If both the phone and iPad were activated before 1st September then you will need to buy the apps if you want them on them.

    Thanks for the answer, unfortunately i bought my ios devices long before that, but still have iwork on my macbook air, and is just amazing, work well, coming from windows, i think is way better in every single detail, and I even have not chance to get the most.
