When do I pay for 3.0?

[Dino451]

I am downloading the update now for my ipod touch 2g. Does it ask for payment before it installs? I just checked for updates and I chose "download and install".

Strange... If I remember correctly for 2.0 it required users to pay before they could download.

Is that right, anyone?

[scotty96LSC]

I commited the transaction and then I was allowed access to download.

[Dino451]

It seemed strange to me that I was able to get it. I have a few minutes left.

[iMrNiceGuy0023]

if you're downloading I guess its free then right?

[Dino451]

Its Installing! I was not asked to pay? The only thing I can think of is my ipod was replaced a few weeks ago by apple because of dust under the screen. Will wait and see. Too good to be true.

[iMrNiceGuy0023]

when I hit update it ask me to pay, I just upgraded to iTunes 8.2 a few mins ago

[Dino451]

I just checked my purchase history and it did not show up...Yet.

There's dust under my screen too, is that enough to validate them replacing it?

[Dino451]

Yes. I went with about 4 to 6 small specks under the screen. I showed it to the "genius" at my local apple store and replaced it with out question.

I entered my payment info, checked thru 2 EULAs and then got nothing. :mad:

It asks you to click through EULAs and then pay again whenever the iTunes EULA changes. If it didn't start downloading, it probably hasn't charged you, try it again.

[lelisa13p]

Downloading presently, after clicking thru the EULAs again, entering password & clicking Buy button again. iTunes says the download is 2+ hours. Happy to have it, no matter how long it takes. :)

Yes... it should have automatically taken the $$ from your account... thats what it did for me, since just 10 minutes earlier, i had bought an app and already entered my password on my macbook.

[KrazyKuul]

it automatically bills the credit card you used to make your itunes account

unless you made a free one like I did, then you got billed. If you were not charged, then you got lucky

Lucky me, I sold my 1g to get a 3g right when it comes out in september

[Dino451]

Has not charged me. I bought a free app about twenty minutes ago and its on my bill in itunes. :o

Interesting...I hit Check for Update, and its showed the 3.0 update available. There was an option to download and install. I clicked it. It started downloading. I didn't get charged. (I have an iPod Touch 2G). I immediately though..."thats not right". I don't know if it will ask me to pay later down the road or something, but there is definitely a bug with their system now. Cause I didn't pay. (and i checked my account, no charges. I have a gift card credit on my account and no credit card, so it would be easy to tell)

I'll update my post later if I get charged.

Is it possible to pay for the update via the itunes credit that was added with itunes cards? Or do you need a credit card?

yeah, i'm pretty sure you can. I would have been able to tell you for sure, but iTunes gave me the iPod Touch update for free. I would have paid with an iTunes gift card.

This happened to me with the 2.0 update. I was ready to buy it, clicked "update" and it just started downloading the update. I never had to pay.

[ouimetnick]

I just clicked check for updates and the panel telling me te feature came up. I still have $11.50 in my account. It hasn't charged me yet. I hope I cab use that money and get te SIMs 3. I'm also typig this on a touch 2G with 3.0
My touch has not been replaced. I bought it in May.

[ouimetnick]

Yep, they didn't get me. I was hoping to help pay for Steve's medical bills. ;) But I used the remaining money and downloaded the Sims 3 for iPhone and touch.
