The Mac came first, but the iPhone and iPad are at the top of the consumer technology mountain. The apple mobile devices sales success is due to the hardware and OS itself. Apple achievement depends upon how well Apple develops, connects and allocates its entire hardware and software ecosystem.

Might be this way you can visit the app page, it showed up as already purchased on your account and you can download away.

Apple new life contains the three apps available on both OSX and is -- IMovie, iPhoto and Garage band. On Mac if you want the iPhoto 9.5, iMovie 10.0 and Garage Band 10.0 iPhoto and movie will be available on the store of $15, while a Garage Band will have the free download of $ 5 in app purchase.
