    Hey there

    I am on my computer and I would like to update there some of my apps.

    The past months I always bought the app again and then it said: "Update is for free". But now the "Buy button" doesn't work anymore. Actually it says something like "Loaded" there.

    How am I now able to download the update for an app on the computer?

    Go to the purchased link I think you can download them from there I haven't tried but I'm guessing what the cloud icons do.

    Why wouldn't you just click on apps in the iTunes sidebar, scroll to the bottom and click on check for updates? Am I missing something here? :confused:

    Same thought came to me as well, I just guessed he must be deleting them off his computer to save space or something. Would be an impossibility for me as my App folder clocks in at 30gb despite a recent cleanout.

    Maybe I'm wrong though.

    I may be wrong, but you can only do that if the app is still on your computer. If he wanted to update an app that isn't in iTunes, he could download the updated version via iTunes under purchased and then later connect his iDevice to xfer the game.
