HT204053 I used to use my dads apple id, I had to make a new one, Now it wont let me download,update or open apps without needing the password for his apple id which I don't know anymore?

Help

Apps are permanently linked to the Apple ID used for download and cannot be transferred to another.  You have to use yourdad's ID or redownload under your own so you will the own the apps.

  • HT5621 We have 2 I phones and One Pad. We try to update applications and his phone never accepts the password for his Apple ID. We backup to same computer. He does what Apple recommends to change his password but it never works . Help

    We have 2 I phones and 1 I-pad we try to update on the same Windows 7 computer. The Apple ID continually prevents one I phone user to update applications. How do we share one
    Computer?

    Did he have find my iPhone enabled under that iCloud account?  If so, add the account back to his phone.  Then in the iCloud account settings, disable find my iPhone first (you will be prompted for your password), then remove the account.
    Now you can create or add a new iCloud account to it using his own AppleID.
    Alternatively, you could log in to your www.icloud.com account in a web browser.  Using the find my iPhone app there, remove his iPhone from your list of associated devices (he will have to power his iPhone off for you to do that).
    After his iPhone is set up for his own iCloud account, on your iPhone, go to
    settings->iCoud->Storage & Backup->Manage Storage and delete his iPhone's backup file to make more room on your own iCloud storage account.

  • TS2446 So I have an iphone and for some reason I don't know the password for my Apple ID so I can't download apps and I don't have the password to my email to change it and I don't know the secret questions , what can I do to make a new Apple ID ?

    I have the same problem - it is maddening. I rely on this iPad for work so this is not just an annoyance! The above solutions of changing the appleid on the device or on the website do not work.
    The old email address no longer exists - I haven't used it in a year probably and I no longer have the account.  I logged into the appleid website and there is no trace of the old email address so there is nothing that can be deleted or changed there.  On the iPad there is no trace of the old email address so nothing can be deleted there either. I have updated the iPad software and the same problem comes right back.  Every 2 seconds I am asked to log in using the old non-existent email.  The device is currently useless.
    The only recent change to anything was the addition of an Apple TV device, which was set up using the correct login and password.
    Does anyone have any ideas? The iPad has been backed up to the iCloud so presumably it now won't recognize the current iCloud account? So restoring may notbe an option?

    Click here and use Apple's iForgot service, or contact their Account Security team, or if you're the device's original owner, take it and its purchase receipt to a physical Apple Store.

  • My Apple id was disabled and had to make a new one for iTunes but it's not letting me erase then re download the app with the new Apple ID

    My Apple id was disabled and had to make a new one for iTunes but it's not letting me erase then re download the app with the new Apple ID   Just got an iPad air 2 so my iCloud and family sharing is with the one that's disabled. Which I don't know how to switch to my new one, so I trying to erase my apps that won't load and just re download them with my new ID that is being used with the iTunes n app store but I can't even find most in purchased plus it's saying that I can't get it cuz that ID is not with family sharing but I donT know why it would not be. Please someone help.

    OOk so I have my new Apple id in my iTunes account but my old Apple ID is the one that is in the iCloud account which is the Apple ID have been using for years and the reason I cannot get it on this abled is because somebody was using my credit card or debit card that was on file for family sharing and it was a stolen iPhone from my account so they had to disable my Apple ID and I could not use my debit card anymore on any Apple ID ever again they said because of it so I can't get it not to be disabled and I can't sign into iTunes with it I already have signed out and signed in with my new Apple ID for iTunes it's just iCloud is not letting me load anything so pretty much what I've been doing is I have to erase every app and then re-dumb going to iTunes and re-download the apps again but the only issue is that I still have a disabled Apple ID as my iCloud settings and my iCloud family sharing in all of that so I'm wondering how or is it possible to change my Apple ID for iCloud specifically because when I go into Icloud and settings and go into my name where my Apple ID is the one that's disabled it doesn't say anything about log out or sign out or anything like that it just says to put the password for it so is there a way to change the Apple ID for my iCloud so that my iTunes in my iCloud is the same Apple ID?

  • I forget the password for my apple account how to activate the IPad?

    Dears I forget the password for my apple account and I reset my Ipad but still asking for the previos user and password to activate the IPad?

    Is the iPad asking for the password to your Apple ID or to a previous owners ID? If you are trying to activate an iOS device and it is asking you for a previous owners Apple ID and password you have encountered the Activation Lock. You must enter the previous owner's Apple ID and password or contact the previous owner and ask them to erase the device and remove it from their Find My iPhone. If you purchased this device used, return it and ask them to clear the device or request a refund. Without the original owner's Apple ID and password you will never be able to use the device and no one here can help you activate it.

  • I changed the password for my Apple ID and now my iPhone won't send my texts

    I changed the password for my Apple ID and now my iPhone won't send out my texts....says they are undeliverable unless I send them out manually as texts.

    Hi sbiermann,
    If you have recently changed the password on your Apple ID account, you may need to manually sign out and sign back in to your Apple ID on your device for the change to take effect. You may find the following article helpful:

  • How do I chg my Icloud account on my Iphone when I delete it it asks for a password for my old account which I don't remember

    Can someone explain how I can change my Icloud id on my Iphone? When I hit delete it asks me for a password on my old account to turn off "find my phone" before it will delete. Since it is my old account I have forgotten what password I used and I'm concerened to trying a bunch without success and maybe blocking my phone.

    If you still have access to your old email address, do the following:
    Go to https//appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your iCloud ID.  Tap edit next to the pimary email account, tap Edit, change it back to your old email account and verify it.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You should then be able to turn off Find My iPhone with your password. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back and change your primary email address and iCloud ID back to the way it was.  You will then be able to go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current ID and password to reconnect to your iCloud account.
    If you don't have access to your old email address, you will have to contact Apple to get them to reset the password for it so you can disable Find My iPhone and sign into your iCloud account.  You will have to prove your identity to them in order to do so.  You can either contact iTunes support for assistance with this (https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html), or contact Apple Support (http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/).

  • Cannot change iCloud ID in iOS8 - Can't Sign Out without turning off Find My iPad - which needs the password for the old iCloud ID

    I have read the older responses to questions re how to change the iCloud account from an old ID/email address (OLD ID) - to a new ID/email address (CURRENT ID).  They all say go to Settings>iCloud - and Delete the iCloud account.  In iOS 8 - there is no Delete - but there is a Sign Out.  BUT - when I choose the Sign Out it shows a pop-up with the OLD iCloud ID - saying I must first sign IN to iCloud and enter a Password Required to turn off the Find My iPad feature.
    I have tried using the password I remember as being correct for the OLD iCloud ID.  Doesn't work.
    I have tried using the password for the CURRENT ID - even though the pop-up has the OLD ID displayed.  Doesn't work.
    I'm out of ideas - except Reset??
    Should I Reset All Settings? 

    I finally found a work-around in another thread on this Using iPad community.  Basically, I had to first make sure that the Messages and Facetime were associated with the CURRENT/NEW ID.  (I could do this by simply erasing the OLD ID and typing in the new - in General>Messages and General>Facetime.  I then used by PC to change my Apple ID back to the OLD ID/EMAIL - but leave the new password alone. 
    I then went back to Settings>iCloud - clicked on Sign Out.  When it asked me to log on -- with the OLD ID/EMAIL -- to turn off the Find My Phone - I did so using the Password that was originally used with the CURRENT/NEW ID.  This worked.  So I finally was able to close out of the iCloud account that used the OLD ID/EMAIL.
    I then went back on my PC to change my Apple ID back to the CURRENT/NEW ID/EMAIL.
    I then went back to the iPad Settings>iCloud - and signed on using the CURRENT/NEW ID/EMAIL.
    So everything is OK now.
    WHEW!!!
    Not sure why this has to be so difficult.  But thanks everyone for your suggestions.

  • How do you reset a password for an email account that I don't have anymore?

    My email address for my original i-pod is not in use anymore and I can't get it back. I can't remember the secret question and having them send a temporary password to the old email address is useless. I have the music from my i-pod in my i-tunes library, but can't play any of it becuase it keeps asking me to authorize it.

    Welcome to the Apple community hbefland.
    If you are unable to remember your password, security questions, don’t have access to your rescue address or are unable to reset your password for whatever reason, your only option is to contact AppleCare(or Apple ID Support), upon speaking to an operator you should explain that your problem is related to your Apple ID, this way you will not be charged for assistance, even if you don’t have an AppleCare plan.
    The operator will take you through some steps you may have already tried, however they need to be sure they have exhausted all usual approaches before trying to reset your account, so you should try to be helpful and show patience with the procedure.
    The operator will need to verify they are speaking to the account holder and may ask you some questions that only the account holder could know, and you will need to answer them if the process is to proceed.
    Once the operator has verified your identity they will send a message through to your device which contains an alpha numeric code, which you will need to read back to them.
    Once this has been completed they will send an email to your iCloud email address after a period of 24 hours, so you should check that mail is enabled in your devices iCloud settings.
    Upon receipt of the email, use the reset link provided to reset your password, after which you should be able to make the adjustments to iCloud that you wish to do.

  • How do I delete my Apple ID account and then make a new one again?

    I want to delete my account and then use the same email to create a new one.

    Apple IDs cannot be deleted. You can abandon it and remove your payment info but the account will remain.
    If you do make a new account keep in mind that all apps downloaded or purchased with the original account will always be associated with that original account and require the old ID and password to update.

  • Why do I have to change the password for my Apple ID every 3 months?

    Until recently I assummed that everyone had to change their password every 3 months, but on searching the web I found only a couple of mentions of other people who have to do this.
    My Apple ID was originally set up when I bought a Mac through my company (which was not a developer) from AppleStore Small & Medium Businesses in 2002.  Perhaps all accounts set up that way in 2002 work like this?
    The only solutions I can think of are:
    a) Change something in my Password and Security settings, but I can't see anything relevant.
    b) Move to a new Apple ID, but I think I would lose access to existing apps I have purchased?
    c) Ask Apple to change my settings, but the response a developer with this problem got from Apple was: "I am unable to change the password requirements and restrictions for your Developer Account".
    Anyone else have to keep changing their password?

    With hindsight, the previous response I got from Apple was just a way of shelving the problem.
    Having just had to reset my password after another 3 months, I contacted Apple again, and it happened that the senior advisor whom the phone agent consulted had had exactly the same problem as me, and had found that iTunes could fix it.  However when I spoke to iTunes they told me I needed to speak to Apple ID account security.  The Apple ID account security representative spoke to a senior adviser, then told me that it would be fixed after I reset my password.  However I am not convinced that anything was actually done, so I may be back here in another 3 months ...
    To modify Roger's advice, the solution I was given is: go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; select 'All Products and Services' in the first column, 'iTunes' in the second column, 'iTunes Store' in the third column, then "Account Management" and "Apple ID account security", then "Talk to Apple support now". A complication is that the "Talk to Apple support now" option only appears when UK English is selected.  So you either need to select UK at the top, or find another way of making phone contact (the email link just went back to the person in iTunes)!
