Can I change iTunes account associated with an app

I downloaded a free app for some of my board members using my itunes account. When it needs to be updated it wants my itunes account information. Can I change this to their iTunes account?

No, apps (including free ones) are tied to the accout that downloaded them and they can't be copied/transferred to another account. If it's a free app then they should be able to delete the app and download their own copy without spending.

How can I change the age associated with my daughter's account?

OK I am sure that this is a common issue. Back when my daughter was about 9 or 10 years old, we bought her an iPod Touch. She was too young to have an AppleID of her own, so I set one up for her using an extra gmail accoun that I had, and entered my birthdate/age. A few years later, she received an iPad, and most recently, an iPhone. All of these devices are tied to the same AppleID.
Well, now she will be 13 years old soon, and I would like to switch things to represent reality. She has her own email account, and I believe you can go to My Apple Id to change the Apple ID name and e-mail address. My question is, can we change the age associated with the account?
I hear you saying, "Just create a new AppleID for her." That may end up being the only solution, but I am trying to avoid having two AppleIDs for her to keep up with. She has already purchased a fair amount of content (music and apps) under the existing AppleID, and I am pretty sure from looking at the posts on this Community that you can not transfer content away from the AppleID under which it was downloaded/purchased. And so, if I create a new AppleID, she will have to re-purchase the content to get it all in one place. As she eventually grows up and becomes independent, I would like for he to not have to "start over" with her AppleID.
Any advice or direction to information would be appreciated.

I have a similar situation however a bit more complicated! It seems that when I was setting the birthdate I forgot to change the year so now my seven years old daughter shows up as a two months old! There is no way to change the birthdate because it shows up in light grey when I login into my daughters account and doesn't allow a change! The birthdate can be changed only when the child turns 13 however according to this she will have to be 20 before she can change it to show property 13 and here is where this is getting completely out of hand! Now to make things more complicated I have twin daughters and they came up with their unique but similar Apple ID, so changing one will require to change both Apple IDs! After being on the phone with Apple's customer support for about one hour I talked to a supervisor and the supervisor of the supervisor and their only solution is to create a new Apple ID! Of course in my case I will have to create two new Apple IDs, and I'm considering doing it. However when I started reading it becomes more complicated because I already made their Apple IDs part of my family group. It seems like you're not able to just let go of family member that is less than 13 years of age. You can only transfer it to another family, so Apple is making sure there are no kids left behind It seems like the only option will be to "abandon" the family and then create a new family with the new Apple IDs. If all this sounds bizarre to you it sounds bizarre to me too! If I can just put the kids in the car and drive them to the nearest one hour away Apple Store and have them show their credentials confirming their birthdate I would rather do that than having to spend more and more time with this issue, but that was not an option pointed out by customer support. So folks keep in mind that if you make a mistake your children's age is set in stone until he or she turns 20 if they happen to be seven at the time you made the mistake and no one can change this, even Apple! Now on the positive side I'm glad I didn't do the mistake when she was 13 or she will have to wait until she's 26 Most likely I'll be calling customer support tomorrow again and I will let you know how it went!

How often can i change icloud account association/other ?s

How often can i change icloud account association on a ios device. If the ios device has a shared photo folder photo on it, will that setting still apply to the updated icloud account.by default. How long will the shared photos from the original icloud account stay available to the other devices? When a shared photo folder is disabled from the ios device, does it immediately remove acces via icloud? if photo stream is activated on one ios device, does it activate on the other devices using that icoud account. Thanks for your help

You change it the same way you change the information for any Apple ID: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5621. (An iCloud ID is also an Apple ID.)
After changing the ID, read this to know what to do next: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5796.

Can you have multiple iTunes accounts associated with one email address?

My current iTunes account is associated with my company email address that I am attempting to change to my personal email address that I share with my husband.The problem is his iTunes account is also associated with this email address. Is there a way to add my account to our joint email address?

No. Purchases made on each account are permanently tied to a unique email address and cannot be changed, and accounts cannot be merged. I think you can add an alternate email address for correspondence if/when you can no longer access email at the original address. See HE68: Apple ID: Associating and verifying email addresses with your Apple ID for more information.

Can't update apps, wrong iTunes account associated with them.

I have just a handful of applications that when I try to update the the app store app prompts me for a password to my other account which the apps were not purchased on. All the apps were validly purchased on the first account, but now the apps are associated with my second itunes account and I can't update them. I've gone into the app store app and set the account to my first account but that does nothing for the update, it keeps prompting me for my password for my second account. I need it to switch back to the first account for these few apps. What's odd is that every other app updates just fine and are associated with the correct account, except for just these few. Any thoughts?
The message I get is that "this discounted price is only available to owners of previous versions.... blah blah." well, I own the previous version, that's how I got it on the iPad. But it's a different account. The update prompt does not allow you to change the username/email, only enter a password. Anyhoo, this is getting annoying.

I ran into the same problem. I had purchased apps using more than one account. When updating apps, I would get errors. Here's what I did to fix it . . . not easy, though.
First, attempt to update your apps on the PC. This will update all of the apps associated with the current account on iTunes.
1) Double-clicked in Apps iTunes (on PC)to open the Apps in another window
2) Arranged windows so I could see both my apps window and the main itunes window side by side.
3) Select an app in the apps window
4) Click on the down arrow right next to the name the Name column which and choose the app name from the drop down list. This will open the app info from the iTunes store in the main iTunes window.
5) Compare the versions. If the Store version is newer, delete the app from the iPhone and from the PC.
Repeat for each app.
Time-consuming but it works.

Changing email account associated with podcast submissions

Does anyone know if you can change the itunes account that was used to submit my podcast? For example, I had to use my wife's itunes account when submitting my podcast, but now that things are working I want to get an itunes account for my business and have the feed use that account instead.
Thanks!

I'm not sure to what extent you can alter things other than as the Tech note indicates. Of course, to the outside world there's no indication of what account it's associated with (there may be an email address in the feed, but you can change that easily enough and it doesn't have to be the one that iTunes has). Changing the email address iTunes has should result in them using that if they need to contact you.But podcasts don't really have an account in the way that purchased songs do since no money has to change hands.

How can I change the name associated with an email address?

I assumed an existing account but would like to change the tag name associated with it. Right now it is still showing up as a colleague's name.

Hi Rossion,
Firefox is a web browser. It displays the content of existing sites. Things like email or page contents come from the content provider. Who is your email provider? You'll probably have better luck consulting their help documentation. There should be a settings menu that allows you to change your personal account information.
Hopefully this helps!

Maximum number of iTunes accounts associated with one credit card?

We have a 20 person sales force and will be updating their iPhones and iPads to iOS 5 at a meeting in February. We want each sales rep to have their own iCloud account for backups and storage. So, we created 20 new iTunes accounts for each of them using the same company credit card. To avoid any problems when we do the rollout I wanted to find out what the maximum number of accounts that iTunes allows you to register with one credit card?
Background Information
Currently, our sales force uses a company ID and password to download apps. This allows us to keep the accounts and location settings restricted for security purposes in case a device is lost. We have since created 20 new user accounts under one credit card for our sales force. I did not do this, but worked closely with the individual who set them up. They shared that iTunes only allowed three accounts to be created per day with the same credit card - I assume that's for security purposes.
In the end, all were able to be registered without a problem. My concern is that when we update the devices, which will be over a period of 1-2 days, will there be a limitation to activating accounts under the same credit card, as there was when we created the accounts? I'm doing the research now to avoid what could be a significant problem if not properly prepared for.
If there's another solution for this, please feel free to share. Our objective is to remove the reliance on the company computer for syncing and give the sales force more freedom. We will still be locking the location for security purposes in case the device is lost/stolen - the iTunes password will be shared between the company and sales rep. They also won't need to ship the device back to our office if there's a problem, as they would be able to restore with iCloud.
Thank you!

Thank you for the reply! That is helpful to know.
My follow-up question is this: we somehow managed to add 20 people to one credit card within one month without any warnings. Should we anticipate encountering a problem?
In the interim, someone in our office is going to try and log into iTunes separately with each of the 20 accounts and download an app to see if there are any problems.
Thanks for the help.
