Pages App Store download question

Hello all,

Quick question. I just recently purchased a new Macbook Air and wanted to download Pages as my word processor. I saw that it was $19.99 in the Mac App Store and I was OK with that, so I downloaded. Now, when I click on "Purchased" apps in the App Store, it lists Keynote, iMovie, GarageBand, and Numbers along with the Pages download. From there, I only installed Pages from the list since that was all I wanted in the first place. Am I going to get charged for all of those apps? I checked for a confirmation email or a charge on my card and nothing popped up yet. Am I getting them all for free?

Any help at all in the matter is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You can go to the Mac App Store, sign in with the same Apple ID & password you used to accept the apps on the MacBook & they should then appear in the Purchased tab for free download. If you haven't "accepted" the apps on the MacBook, do so following the instructions on this page.

The only time you should have to pay again is if you have the Mac versions & want to install on an iOS device. Again, it's only one purchase for each OS.
