I want to update my applications I keep on entering the password and it keeps asking me about it and again I enter it and nothing happens although it is correct I can download new apps but can't update the old ones

Then you will need the password for the old account in order to update the app.
apps are tied to the apple id that was used to purchase the app.

  • I can't update my apps, but I can download news. How can I update normally my apps?

    I can't update my apps, but I can download news. How can I update normally my apps? Thanks!

    Hi Dnasc,
    I have two more suggestions:
    1. Reset your iPad - hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same and continue to hold them down until you see the Sliver Apple (ignore the red slider). You will not lose any data. I know this sounds like it might not do anything, but this afternoon I deleted and re-added my iCloud account on my iPad (experimenting so I could answer another question), and it really messed up my Photostream. Did the reset, and everything in the photostream reloaded successfully without any further problems. A reset can do wonders to help "clear your iPad's mind"....
    2. Go into iTunes and update the Apps on your computer, then hook up your iPad and sync....
    I hope one of these works for you!
    Cheers,

    I downloaded a new APP to my iPhone it appears on my screen but can't get it to appear on my wife's iPhone screen.  Her screens were initially full of Apps, I later made room for the new APP but can't get it to appear even after  making room for the new APp.  It can be opened, but I want the APP to be on her iPhone screen as well as on mine.  Help, please.

    Is the app downloaded on her phone also?

  • Can't dwnload paid apps from the app store. Can download  free apps but not paid for apps. How do I fix this?

    Can't download paid apps from the app store. Can download free apps but not paid for apps. Anyone know what is wrong?

    If you're using a first generation iPod touch, it is up to date. The higher iOS versions require a newer model.

    What number are you entering. The CVV or the account number?
    In any case, you better check with iTS on this one.

  • Operating system os x 10.6.8 safari 5.1.10. am told on checking that 16.0.305 is installed but not listed in applications. have downloaded install app but cannot carry out the installation. am informed flash player is blocked.

    operating system os x 10.6.8 safari 5.1.10. am told on checking that 16.0.305 is installed but not in application. have downloaded install app but cannot carry out the installation. can anyone help? am unable to use any application requiring flash player.
    thank you!

    Hi Anne,
    Your version of Safari is still supported.  Please see Adobe Flash Player | Tech specs for supported OS and browsers.
    If the Flash Player plugin is in the Plug-ins (disabled) folder it's because it's an older version that Apple has disabled in Safari.  This has nothing to do with whether or not Flash Player supports the browser.
    I'm not sure what you mean by "when i click on flash player itself i am told there is no application to open it."  Flash Player.plugin only works in the browser to view Flash content in the browser.  The plugin does not open files outside of the browser.  If you have SWF files you'd like to view outside of the browser, then you'll need the Flash Player projector. However, based on your previous comments this doesn't appear to be what you are trying to do.
    Google Chrome does embed Flash Player in it, while Firefox does not.   Mozilla has also recently started blocking older versions of Flash Player in Firefox similar to what Apple is doing in Safari.
    Following the 'clean install' instructions should result in you having the latest version of Flash Player installed that will not be blocked by the browser.

  • Downloaded iOS 6 onto my iPhone 3GS. Can't download new apps but I can update apps??

    Since updating my iPhone 3GS to iOS 6 yesterday I haven't been able to download new apps. I can still update apps, but when I try downloading a new app I put in my password when prompted, it says installing for a few moments and the loading bar appears. But it never starts to load (no blue in the install bar) and then just stops and the app is displaying as if I've never installed it. Anyone else had this and does anykne know how to fix it?
    Thanks

    If you're using an iPhone 4 as it says in your profile, you're not supposed to have Siri after updating to iOS6

  • Cannot download new apps nor can I update current apps.  My App Store ID is still my old email address.  How do I fix?

    Cannot download new apps or update existing apps.  App Store ID is old email address and not current one.  How do I fix?

    If you can't buy/download them with your new account then closing the App Store app via the iPad's multitasking bar and then do a soft-reset it and see if you can then download them
    To close the App Store app : double-click the home button to open the taskbar, and then swipe or drag the App Store app's screen from there up and off the top of the screen to close it, and click the home button to close the taskbar
    To do a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    Put the app in the Trash and try to download it again. It should give you the up-to-date version. If it works, then you can empty the Trash.

  • I cannot connect to ITunes after updating to IOS 7.0.2,cannot update my apps nor download new apps. When I tap the quick test for IOS diagnostics it says it cannot verify the ticket number.

    After updating to IOS 7.0.2 in my Ipad mini I cannot update my apps nor download new apps . It says "cannot connect to ITunes. " it's been almost 3 wks now. I have tried resetting it  and trying other options like changing the DNS to just 8.8.8 etc but to no avail. I try to run the IOS diagnostics but it couldn't verify my ticket number. Everytime I open my mail it cannot identify server identity " Apple.imap.yahoo.com." But I just clicked "continue" anyway so I could get my mail.

    (A) Reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    Note: Data will not be affected.
    (B) Reset all settings
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings
    Note: Data will not be affected but settings will be reset.

  • My computer had a virus and needed to be wiped clean. all my itunes docs are stored on an external hard-drive so i downloaded a new itunes but it over-wrote my old one - how can i restore this without wiping my iphone? please help :(

    Hi there,
    My windows xp computer got a virus and needed to be wiped.
    As i store all of my itunes and iphone stuff on an external hardrive i thought this would not cause a problem.
    Got a bit confused when i tried to open itunes again from the back-up hardrive as it would not open.
    Wrongly assumed that the best option would be to re-download itunes and move my old itunes info across - silly silly thing to do :/
    The new download just over-wrote the old one and after trying a few of the suggestions on here to get my old library back - i still cant work out if its possible as it has been over-written.
    I don't want to plug my iphone4 into my computer as i have heard that this can wipe your phone completely, so before i do anything, does anyone know what is the best thing to do from here? or how i could posibly recover my old library, playlists, apps, podcasts e.t.c
    please please help

    go iTunes > preferences > advanced and temporarily disable the copy files ... when adding option.
    from the file menu, choose add to library and select the folder on the external containing your content, or drag the folder to the automatically add to iTunes folder inside the iTunes folder.
    when iTunes has finished the operation, go back to preferences > advanced and point iTunes media folder location to the external so that future additions to your library are put there. also, re-enable the copy files ... when adding option.
