HT204053 I had to create an Apple ID to open a cloud account. For some time prior to this, I had an account for my iPod. Today I was unable to update apps using the old password. My Apple ID will not do it either. ???

I had to create an Apple ID to open a cloud account some time ago. For some time prior to this, I had an account for my iPod. Today I did a sync and was notified of two app updates, but was unable to use my old password and was notified to use my Apple ID. However, when I log in with my Apple ID, the store tells me that I do not own the apps.
How can I get this system to update my iPod apps.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
Certainly not happy with this situation, as Apple expects me to pay for help on this.

1. Don't confuse "Apple ID" with iTunes Account ID.  You can have many Apple IDs but only one iTunes account active at a time.
2. If you "changed" your iTunes account ID, you actually have 2 accounts - one under the old name plus the new name.
3. You can't merge the accounts - they remain separate.  Apps purcahsed under the old account name will update ONLY WHEN THE PHONE IS SIGNED IN TO THE OLD ACCOUNT NAME  and visa versa.
4. Likewise, you can sync only the apps, music, media purchased under the account the phone AND iTunes are signed in to.

    Have you signed out of your iTunes account on the device/computer that you are using and signed back in with the updated password ? That should 'refresh' the account on it, and you should be able to use the account's new password to download updates to its apps

    The system I'm have is a Mac-mini that had SL on it and no SuperDrive.  I have also call Apple Support and they have really have not been to much help over 1st did my up grade to Lion and Installed the Lion Server.... it lost my SSL that I paid for and kill almost on of my server setting, plus kill all my web servers (using apache vhosts), and not to say the LDAP will even let remote users login to your laptops.
    PS: There is no way that I'm going to buy a Install USB from Apple... They have over billed me over $300.00 because the Apps Store still has bugs (Glad I did not write that App/Service)
    If there is anyone that can give in the information to create a USB install stick, I would be very thinkful.

    Here you are bro, courtesy of "softpedia.com"....brilliant site!!!
    If you ever had problems with your Mac OS X installation you know that the first thing you should do is to check the startup volume using Disk Utility.
    After the check has ended and, if the errors exceed a certain level of seriousness, the Disk Utility application will require you to restart your Mac and use its Mac OS X Install disc counterpart.
    Other users may have to reinstall OS X altogether, but will find, or already know, that their SuperDrive (a CD/DVD reader and write combo drive) is not functioning properly and it will not be able to read the Install disc.
    Although this might happen to Mac OS X Leopard users due to faultyhardware, the vast majority of problematic SuperDrives will be encountered inside Snow Leopard running Macs.
    This is due to the updated SuperDrive firmware included in either the Install disc or the software updates one has to install to reach the latest version of OS X, namely 10.6.6.
    This can be fixed by flashing the SuperDrive’s stock firmware using free command line tools that one can find for free online (I will write about this process also, but at a later time because this article only focuses on allowing you to create your own alternative USB boot disc).
    If you are reading this last bit of information with skepticism, than you should know that it happened to me too. Despite all my tries to make it work properly, the SuperDrive kept on munching any inserted DVDs and just popped them out in about twenty seconds.
    The workaround to this issue was to create my own Leopard bootable USB memory stick. I am not suggesting a Snow Leopard bootable stick mainly because there are lots of users that have decided to buy the cheaper, Upgrade version, which I have not tested and, therefore, I’m not sure if it will work properly once written to a USB disk.
    And now, here are the exact steps you should follow in order to obtain a fully bootable Leopard (or Lion) Install disc.
    Step 1 (If you already have the Leopard install disc DMG file you can skip to Step 2)
    Launch Disk Utility (you can find it inside /Applications/Utilities). Here select the Leopard Install disc in the list of drives on the left and click on the New Image menu entry at the top of the window. A save message will appear where you will have to select the Desktop as a destination.
    Step 2
    After Disk Utility has finished creating the Leopard DMG, insert your USB stick and erase all data and reformat the disk. To do this select the USB in the list of drives on the left and, after clicking on the Erase tab on the right side of the window, choose the Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format and click the Erase button beneath.
    Step 3
    After the USB has been reformatted, download the SuperDuper app from HERE and launch it. Once SuperDuper starts, you will only have to select the DMG in the Copy drop-down menu, your USB memory stick on the right and hit the “Copy Now” button.
    One can also use Disk Utility for this task but creating a bootable USB stick failed 2 out 4 times when copying the DMG to the stick (with the exact same settings each time). Creating the bootable stick using SuperDuper proved to be the perfect way to do it because it worked each of the 4 times I tested it.
    The steps above can also be used to create a bootable Mac OS X Lion USB by using the InstallESD.dmg image you can find inside the Lion installer (named “Install Mac OS X Lion.app”) downloaded from the Mac App Store in the /Applications folder.
    To locate the InstallESD.dmg right click the Lion installer, select the “Show Package Contents” entry, go inside the “Contents” folder, and from there into the “SharedSupport” folder. Inside this folder you can find the InstallESD.dmg you can use to create your own bootable Mac OS X Lion USB stick. To do so, go to the third step described above and use the InstallESD.dmg as the DMG to be copied to your USB disc.
    That’s it! Once the process ends you will have a fully bootable Leopard (or Lion) USB disk that you can use as an alternative to the Apple’s DVD Install disc that comes bundled with all Macs.
    To use your newly created bootable disk you will have to restart the Mac, press and hold the OPTION key until the StartupManager appears. Here, select the Mac OS X Install disk using your keyboard arrows and press return to start from the selected drive.

  • Hi, I have small problem, for some time in music area I had two folders to use 1. Apple loops for soundtrack pro 2. Final Cut pro sound effects now both are gray and with out content may I know what happend

    I just went through this and it appears that my Focusrite Saffire was the culprit. I connected all the outputs on the focusrite according to the way the jacsk on the back were labeled and then set up the multichannel speaker setup to match. Then I went into STP, created a pink noise clip and panned it around, the LFE, center and rears were not in the right place.
    I reconnected the hardware to match the 5.1 pan pot in STP then changed the multichannel speaker setup to match. Everything appears to be correct now but I would have loved to have been able to just assigned the output busses to correct outputs in the saffire.
    Next step is to pan that pink noise around with my SPL meter to calibrate the room.

    I work on the CompactRIO 9068 that the password is lost for some time.
    Please  help me to  reset it, for finish my end of study project.
    Thank you,

    but the page of ni support does not work:
    https://sine.ni.com/srm/app/newrequest
    and I have the recovery.cfg file from NI with this steps :
    1.        Copy the recovery.cfg file, found in the zip folder attached at the bottom of the email, to the thumb drive. 
    2.        With the cRIO device powered off, plug in the USB drive to the controller.
    3.        Hold down the reset button while powering on the controller.  Continue holding the reset button until the status light turns on, then release the reset button.
    4.        Wait for the controller to boot.  This should take less than a minute.
    5.        Check that the password has been reset to the default. (you will still be prompted for a password even if the default is blank)
    6.        Reinstall software to the controller. Using the USB reset will leave the system in a state where it is unable to run LVRT
      I have followed the procedure as mentioned 
    Result: the LED "Status" is permanently blinking.
    Would you please provide as with another alternative so that we can fix this issue.

  • Using the New Mac Pro (can) - AE will not let me use Race Traced 3-D

    Using the New Mac Pro (can) - AE will not let me use Race Traced 3-D
    Hi, I'm using the new Mac Pro
    2.7 GHz 12-core Intel Xeon E5
    64 GB 1867 MHz DDR3
    AMD FirePro D700 6144 MB
    OSX 10.9.2
    I'm using After Effects 12.2.1.5
    When I attempt to invoke the race trace 3D renderer in a comp, I get this error
    "After Effects Error: Ray-traced 3D: Out of paged mapped memory for ray tracer. Your project may exceed GPU limits. Try closing other applications. Try updating the CUDA driver. (5070::2)"
    My preferences are set to use the CPU for Raytraced 3D since I do not have an Nvidia card.
    So, obviously there is an issue here in that it thinks I have an Nvidia card.
    I know (or assume I know) the cause for this is that when I set up this machine, I used Apple's migration assistant to move most of my data over from the previous gen Mac Pro which DID have a CUDA card.
    So my question is, what files can I delete/reset to cause After Effects to no longer look for CUDA files that do not exist on this machine?
    I do not have the CUDA control panel in System Prefs, so THAT did not carry over.
    Any ideas would be appreciated, thanks!

    > I know (or assume I know) the cause for this is that when I set up this machine, I used Apple's migration assistant to move most of my data over from the previous gen Mac Pro which DID have a CUDA card.
    Ugh. That causes so many problems.
    The first thing to try is deleting the CUDA frameworks from your Mac: Look in /Library/Frameworks for the CUDA.Framework and get rid of it.

    I have tried with a wired USB keyboard and mouse using a single screen. Powered up with option pressed. No change.

    Run the Apple hardware test to see what it tells you. Run the extended test when prompted, which can take awhile.

  • HT1766 I lost my IPhone 4S this morning and want to increase my cloud storage so I can back it up when it finds a signal and then remotely erase it...I'm assuming the worst that whoever finds is will not callme or want to return the phone

    I lost my IPhone 4S this morning and want to increase my cloud storage so I can back it up when it finds a signal and then remotely erase it...I'm assuming the worst that whoever finds is will not call me or want to return the phone. I went to icloud but it only govers me options to increase storage from my iPhone or a synced computer (mac or PC).

    If the phone is offline there is no way to track it or send a message to it.  You can place it in lost mode to lock it and send it a message (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmfc0f0165), but this will not take place until the phone goes back online, if it ever does.  If it does, you will get an email informing you.

  • My old Apple ID won't allow me to use the old password to log out of the cloud. I can't use the new one, either. The new Apple ID is in the iTunes and App store. But I can't change it on the cloud without logging out. Which I can't do.

    I can't use the old Apple id and Apple password on my new Iphone 6 - I can use the new ones. But I can't access the cloud in the meantime. The iTunes and App Stire has the new Apple ID, but I can't get into the settings to change it on the iCloud. It asks for the Old Apple ID and password, which doesn't work. Does anyone know how to change the old Apple ID on the iPhone in the settings for the iCloud?

    First, try the new password.  If you didn't sign out of iCloud prior to changing the primary email address of your Apple ID, this is what can cause this problem.
    Also, read this: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud - Apple Support

  • Tip: Unable to Install or Update Apps Using the iPhone's App Store?

    I had a problem today where I found myself unable to install updates, or install new or previously purchased apps using the App Store on the iPhone. However, I had no problem with the installation of apps when I plugged my iPhone into my computer, opened iTunes and dragged the app I wanted over to my iPhone. So, I did the usual: I tried a reboot, and, when that didn't work, I powered my phone off and waited a few minutes before turning it back on. Still no love with the updating or installation of apps using the App Store on my iPhone.
    Here is what I did do to fix it:
    I keep backups of my iPhone on my MBP and I back up my phone regularly. If you do not, you should start doing so. Anyway, I went ahead and plugged my phone into my computer and launched iTunes (I also update my MBP daily if necessary, so the most current version of iTunes was used).
    Once my phone showed up in iTunes and I could select it, I right-clicked on the iPhone's name (I use a MBP, but I know Windows users might view this, too, so universal language is what I will use - for Mac users, right-clicking means using two finger tap on a touchpad or using the good 'ol Control-click) and selected "Back Up" from the menu.
    Once the phone was backed up, I right-clicked again on the iPhone's name and selected "Restore from Backup...".
    I made sure the value for "iPhone Name" was correct and that the "Last Backed Up" day and time values were correct and I clicked the "Restore" button and let the restore process finish completely (wait until your iPhone shows up in iTunes again before doing anything else with your phone).
    Once the restore was complete, I was extra cautious and powered off then powered on my phone. Finally, I went ahead and plugged it back into my MBP and made sure that the phone showed up in iTunes.
    Following all of that, I launched the App Store on my iPhone again, entered the password for my Apple ID and updating apps, installing new apps, and installing previously purchased apps from iCloud all worked again.
    Please note that this process is much different than just simply clicking the "Restore" button on your iPhone's homepage in iTunes. That will prompt you to backup your phone, completely restore it to factory defaults, and, then require you to restore from backup to get all your settings and such back. This is not the route I took - I simply restored from an existing backup. I want to make sure that this point is clear. Although, if restoring from an existing backup does not solve the issue at first, then perhaps a restore to factory defaults followed up with a restore from a backup will do the trick, too. I just did not want to waste my time taking the much longer route first and was happy to find my iPhone's App Store working again by simply restoring my phone using an existing backup.
    I have seen a lot of posts regarding this issue in the support communities, with none of them having an answer (even after calling Apple Support). I hope this helps anyone else that has had, is having or will have the same issue! Feel free to post comments regarding other solutions you have found for the same issue - let's have one discussion where all possible solutions can be posted so iPhone users do not have to sort through a bunch of unhelpful discussions just to find a solution that was not yet documented (like I had to).

  • Unable to update apps since I have closed my Verizon e-mail account.  The old ID address pops up and I can not do updates.  I can not use the old password since the account is closed.  I have a new ID and password on my laptop but not for my I phone.

    My Verizon e-mail account is closed and I can not access the needed updates for my I phone apps.  Even if I knew the password I would have to access the old e-mail account which I can not do.  I have an ID and password for my new laptop but not for my I phone which is under a Verizon service contract....ugh!!!  Thanks

    How do I delete an old Apple ID without losing the itunes music and apps I downloaded with it?  I want all my itunes music and apps. under my new Apple ID. How do you consolidate old and new itunes and apps on a new iphone?

    I have the same problem and signing out in settings doesn't seem to work.  Somewhere, the old id is "hard coded" in the ipad because I used it when I purchased the app, I guess.  The only thing that has worked for me is to delete the app and get it again with my current id - great for the free ones, not so great for the ones I paid for.
