How can I get my apps from iCloud to another account?

My apologies if I'm stupid, but I'm new to Mac.

I currently have iMac with El Capitan and I also own an iPad, I've had for about a year. (This was recorded at the Apple store under the identity of the ***@live.com - see below)

I have several apps "purchased" on the iPad that I use on my iMac, which I bought recently.

This iMac is declared to the wound with the same name, but with the ' @icloud.com' suffix.

The problem is that these purchases were made with the account 'live', while my iMac has the "@icloud" account & I don't seem to be able to transfer them to.

Following the intervention by the Imac support - both my iPad & iMac share the same iCloud account & they gave me to understand that my account would be treated as an alias. It doesn't seem to be! - or at least none of my previous purchases are on the relevant list on the apple store. (this is to say that new acquisitions are indicated)

I tried to create a second account on the iPad with the identity as ***@live.com (IE my original account), but it is rejected saying ***@icloud.com (IE NOT live.com) is already on this account!

Asterisks are both of the same name, but there is a big difference between live.com & icloud.com!

I know I'm wrong somewhere, but how to share the apps I bought on my iMac?

Any help will be appreciated.

I have several apps "purchased" on the iPad that I use on my iMac, which I bought recently.

Applications that are designed for the iPad or mobile devices will not work on an iMac. They are two different species, even if they have the same name.

Also the applications that have been purchased on an Apple ID are always connected to this ID and cannot be redownloaded by an another Apple ID.  Apple ID can be joined or merged.  Also e-mail addresses that have been used for an Apple ID may not be reused for a different Apple ID.

Applications for the iPad are obtained through the iTunes store, while the Mac apps are purchased through the App Store.  Two very different stores.

So, you can buy the apps you want for the Mac on the App Store.
