Why can't I use apps and games purchased in iTunes on devices with a different Apple ID?

After downloading from the App Store, programs are “tied” to a specific Apple ID for synchronization between devices and for protection against theft. See detailsDigital Signature Application . In order to use the application on other devices, it must be hacked (see How to hack the application from the App Store ). How to install such applications, see Installing hacked applications .

Synchronization

The concept of synchronization is that the phone or tablet is not certain "memory stick" for the data transfer, and part of the ecosystem (with PC) because the data that is stored on the PC (or the user part of the file system) must be stored and the device . When you add a file to a folder, which is synchronized on iOS also added the file, if any item in the folder to remove - it will be deleted on the portable device. Thus, the user can process the same information on the PC and iOS-device, working with them as two full parts ecosystem.
The main synchronization tools are iTunes and iCloud. Contacts, notes, calendars, photos can be synchronized via iCloud, music, video, podcasts, TV shows and other media can be synced via iTunes. However, using iTunes, you can also sync what is synced via iCloud, but the same data cannot be synced with iTunes and with iCloud. This is done in order to avoid duplication of information.
Synchronization can occur both via Wi-Fi and USB.

Sync setup
Consider the iTunes window for syncing:

1 - synchronization settings (for each type of content are selected separately.
2 - content of the iOS device.
Automatic sync. Such synchronization will occur immediately after connecting the iOS device to the computer. To disable this option go to iTunes ->Settings ->Devices ->Disable automatic syncing ... and click OK.

In the case of music and video, you can customizeselective sync , thanks to which it will be possible to synchronize only individual tracks. To enable this option, go to the Device tab ->Browse and select "Process music and video manually."

Wi-Fi sync. No different from the usual, but it happens via Wi-Fi. To enable this option, go to the “Overview” tab of the device and select “Sync this iPad (iPhone) via Wi-Fi” and select “Apply”.

If automatic synchronization is disabled, synchronization can also be performed via the iOS device. To do this, go toSettings ->Major ->Sync with iTunes over Wi-Fi ->Synchronize.

Photo sync features

Unlike other content, photos are created by the user, because they can be downloaded to a computer as from a regular USB flash drive.
From the computer you will see several folders with photos, the contents of which will be duplicated.This is normal for iOS 5 and up.
To set up sync to upload photos from your computer to your iOS device, go to the Photos menu in iTunes. Here you can choose whether photos will be downloaded from iPhoto (for Mac only), or from a specific folder.


Downloaded photos will be grouped in a separate folder. As in the case of any other synchronization, the folder on the iOS device will correspond to the folder on the PC: if any image is deleted, it will be deleted on both devices (similarly with the addition).

What to do with phantom content on an iOS device?

Phantom content (grayed out entries that do not open) sometimes appears on iOS devices.
Usually phantom books, music, videos and other content appear due to synchronization or deletion errors. In order for such content to disappear, it is necessary to re-synchronize, while necessarily having synchronized this content (noting its synchronization in the settings).

There is no possibility to flash irrelevant devices.

If you want to flash your iPhone 3GS to iOS 6, it’s impossible to use iTunes 12 for this. This is due to the irrelevance of the iPhone 4 and below, iPad 1, iPod Touch 4G and below. In this regard, you should use those versions of iTunes, which were released in the corresponding year of the necessary firmware.

• For flashing on iOS 7, use iTunes 11.
  
• For flashing on iOS 6, use iTunes 10.
  
• For flashing on iOS 5, use iTunes 9.
  
• For flashing on iOS 4 use iTunes 8.

This manual is based only on the personal experience of users!

The “Other” section takes up too much space. What to do?

There is no universal answer. However, you can give some tips:

Reinstalling applications
Despite the small size of some applications, they can waste large amounts of memory on the cache. To clear the cache, you can reinstall the application.
In order to see how much space the application takes, just go toSettings ->Major ->Statistics ->Storage ->(Application Name). Amounts of content in applications can be viewed in the “Documents and Data” row.


Clear Safari Data
Safari's built-in browser stores a large amount of information (history, site data, cache). To clean it you need to go toSettings ->Safari ->Clear site history and data.


Clear iMessage chat
IMessage conversations with attachments can take up a lot of space on your device. To clear them, go to iMessage, click on the message, select “More” and click on the trash can icon in the bottom left corner. Having made a swap left by correspondence, you can also delete it.

Sync errors
Errors, and, as a result, a lot of occupied space may occur when syncing with iTunes. To avoid such errors, it is recommended to remove the item “Process music and video manually” and synchronize the device again.


If nothing helps ...
In this case, it is best to make a backup copy of the device and recover from it. This should remove all errors and unnecessary files.

Cleaning with third-party software
Cleaning can be done using the program.PhoneClean.Users recommend installing earlier versions of the program, as they better “clean” the system.

How to fix the error “(Device) could not be synchronized, as this computer is no longer authorized to buy objects already on this device”

If such an error is not corrected by the authorization of the computer, then most likely it is caused by using multiple accounts to purchase items (music, movies, applications, sounds, etc.) on the device. If you downloaded a program tied to someone else's Apple ID, delete it. You also need to remove all other objects associated with other accounts, except those configured in iTunes.
If you do not remember what content was purchased, try to perform selective synchronization for individual data types.

How to hide unused applications using iTunes in the "Shopping" section?

Sometimes, after buying a large number of applications, the “Shopping” section in the App Store is filled with unnecessary programs, as a result of which the necessary software in it becomes more and more difficult to find. At the same time, hiding applications in the App Store program on the iOS device itself only works until the first reboot of the store.
With iTunes, you can hide the required applications until they are opened manually.

Go to the iTunes purchase section. To do this, click on the profile button in the top panel, then click on “Purchases”.

Hover over the icon of the desired application. A cross appears in the upper left of the icon.

Click on it and the application will be hidden.

Display programs
If the application was hidden by mistake, you can return it to the shopping section.

Click "Store", then "View Account ...".

Confirm your login with your Apple ID.
Select "iTunes in the cloud" and click "Manage."

Find the application you need and click "Show." You can also select “Show All” (button in the lower right corner of the window).
