Ipads asking for AppleID On every app

[Sonic007]

I’ve used Configurator to push out all apps to a trolley of iPads but find I am constantly having to log into my appleID every time I try and open an App.

 

Someone please tell me where I’m going wrong as this used to work.

I’ve read about iPads now needing to get part of Apple classroom Management where you then have to specify the number of purchases for each app? Is that right?

 

I’m shattered and can’t think straight tonight.

Can someone point me in the right direction.

 

Thankyou.

Are you using Apple Volume Purchase Plan? (VPP), if not you should be. You won't get prompted for an apple ID that way ands its meant to be used for scenarios like this.

I'm not and this is where I think Im going wrong now.

 

It used to work but Im guessing Apple have changed things since these iPads were last configured.

 

Ive just signed up for the Volume Purchase Programme for Education so now need to wait for them to authorise it. I hope it doesnt take long!

 

I was going round in circles last night but was so tired (My 3 little kids keeping me awake all night long ther night before).

 

Hopefully the VPP will make things easier.

 

Thankyou.

Hopefully the VPP will make things easier.

 

you need to be using an MDM solution that supports device deployment also. id assume most do now however, and yes it makes life much easier!

Just installing Mosyle Manager so once approved for VPP from Apple I hope to use that.

oh also, youre going to have to rebuy all your licences as managed tokens - free stuff is still free, gotta buy the managed tokens still but anything paid you will need to pick up/pay for again as apple won't convert you old stuff - nice discounts though on most stuff once you go 20+
