iWork Free, how?

Housey · 22 Oct 2013 at 23:13

I have this bought before Apple Store, so it's still showing as an item to purchase in App Store even though I believe it is now free. What am I missing and is it possible to upgrade my old version that I bought?

So the apps are not free on OSX Mavericks then?

To be clear, I am running the new versions on my iPad and iPhone, no problems there as both devices are running IOS7. I also have iWork on my MacBook which I have just taken to Mavericks this evening, but they were purchased in the days before App Store. I perhaps am misreading what was announced, but I was under the impression that iWork is now FOC on all platforms? If the is the case, then why in App Store does it show them at 13 quid each and not FOC.....or am I being a duffer?

Ah OK got it.

What if I have purchased iWork already, should I get a FOC upgrade?

OK, thanks for clearing that up.

Yea mine too is upgrading this morning to the new version, something it has never done before. Seems it is FOC to everyone, not just those who bought it via App Store in the past as my version of iWork was a licensed trial version which you could do back in 2009/2010 as I recall.

The question now is, is it free for people who never bought it, I believe it is?
