How To

Bought SlingPlayer from the iTunes Store? Want to extend your registration to another device?

Here is how to extend your registration for SlingPlayer products purchased from the Apple iTunes Store to other supported devices.

Applicable Versions of SlingPlayer
SlingPlayer for iPhone/iPod touch

SlingPlayer for iPad



If you bought SlingPlayer for iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad from the iTunes Store:

  • The iTunes App Store allows you to purchase the application and then use it on up to five devices, one at a time.

  • You can only extend your registration to other iOS-supported devices.



To extend your registration to other iTunes-supported devices:

  • To use SlingPlayer for iPhone/iPod touch on another iPhone or iPod Touch, sync the new device in iTunes. Or, directly on your device, you can go to the App Store app, log into your account, and "re-purchase" SlingPlayer for iPhone.

  • Whichever method you use, iTunes should download and install the software onto your device.



What about SlingPlayer for iPad?

  • SlingPlayer for iPad is a different app than the version made for iPhone or iPod touch - it's optimized to take full advantage of our latest streaming technology coupled with the stunning full-screen resolution of the iPad.

  • Just like the iPhone version of SlingPlayer, the same conditions apply for the iPad - you can install it on up to 5 iPads (one at a time) via iTunes.

  • SlingPlayer for iPad will not work on the iPhone or iPod touch.
