App store trying to use my old apple ID - how can I make it use my new one?

Hope someone can help.
I've changed my email address and created a new Apple ID. It works fine on my computer (have successfully bought music), works fine on ITunes on my iphone (again, successfully bought music), but the App store insists on my old ID (although of course it won't accept my old password.
I've logged out and back in again in Settings, and synced before and after successfully making purchases in ITunes but to no avail.
Any suggestions?

I am having that exact same problem too. It locked me out of my old account for some reason, so I created a new one. I am able to log on, I recently bought music, and I changed my apple ID in the store settings in my iPhone. However, when I try to update my apps/try to buy new ones on my phone it keeps defaulting to the old one without giving an option to use a different ID. I rebooted my phone and searched for other areas that I might have to enter the new ID, but I can't find anything...

  • I recently restored my iPhone 5, setting up as new, due to software issues.  I wasn't able to use my old Apple i.d. and had to set up a new one, so now I have 3 of those.  If I need to repeat this process, how do I sign in with a current i.d.?

    Apple checked out my iPhone 5 and told me the Springboard app was corrupt, affecting battery life.  They advised me to wipe the phone and set it up as new so new software would be installed.  I did this, but couldn't sign in with my Apple i.d.  I had to create a new one.  This "fix" didn't improve battery life, and Apple replaced the phone.  I set the new phone up using "restore from backup" and the battery life is terrible.  I'd like to wipe it and install the software from scratch but don't want to have to have another new Apple i.d.  How can I do this?

    Restore from the backup!
    You password: You have set it! It might be your passcode or you mioght have set it accidentally, so test all of the passwords you normally use. If you cannot get the password you backup is lost, but you can still sync your iTunes content.

  • How can I make server use single class loader for several applications

    I have several web/ejb applications. These applications use some common libraries and should share instances of classes from those libraries.
    But applications are being deployed independently thus packaging all them to EAR is not acceptable.
    I suppose the problem is that each application uses separate class loader.
    How can I make AS use single class loader for a set of applications?
    Different applications depend on different libraries so I need a way that will not share library for all applications on the domain but only for some exact applications.
    When I placed common jar to *%domain%/lib* - all works. But that jar is shared between all applications on the domain.
    When I tried to place common jar to *%domain%/lib/applibs* and specified --libraries* attribute on deploying I got exception
    java.lang.ClassCastException: a.FirstDao cannot be cast to a.FirstDaoHere http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E19879-01/820-4336/6nfqd2b1t/index.html I read:
    If multiple applications or modules refer to the same libraries, classes in those libraries are automatically shared.
    This can reduce the memory footprint and allow sharing of static information.Does it mean that classes should be able to be casted ?

    You didn't specify which version of the application server you are using, but the config is similar as long as you know what to look for. Basically, you need to change the classloader delegation. Here's how it is done in 8.2

  • My old Apple ID does not work, so I have a new one, but the problem is, my iCloud is backed up on my old Apple ID, and I tried to delete the account, but then it said that everything would be deleted on my iPad. How do you add another iCloud email?

    My old Apple ID doesn't work, so I created a new one. However, my iPad(3) is backed-up on my old apple ID. I tried deleting it(for iCloud) but it said it would erase everything. Help?

    If you want to use a new ID, you'll have to create a new iCloud account using the new ID, then migrate your existing icloud data to the new account.  Start by saving any photo stream photos that you want to keep to your camera roll (tap Edit, tap the photos, tap Share, tap Save to Camera Roll).  Next, if you are syncing notes with iCloud, open them one at a time and email them to yourself so you can recreate them in the new account.  Finally, if you are syncing iWork documents with iCloud, turn off iCloud syncing in your iWork app settings.
    Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Keep on My iPad when prompted.  Then sign in with your new ID to create the new account, turn your iCloud data syncing back on and choose Merge to upload the data to the new account.
    When you turn Mail to On you will create a new @icloud.com email account.  You can go to icloud.com sign into your old account and set up email forwarding from your old iCloud email address to your new one if you wish

    I recently changed my username n password. Now that I'm trying to update my apps, it still default at my old username. How can I change it to new username?

    Sorry, you can't. Apps are forever tied to the Apple ID used to originally obtain them. They cannot be updated using any other Apple ID, nor can they be transferred to another Apple ID. You will have to update them using the ID used to originally obtain them.

    The app must have been purchased using your friends account.  This means that the app belongs to your friend.
    You need to buy your own copy.

  • My iCloud mail is used in my old apple id, how can i move my old iCloud mail to my new apple id

    my iCloud mail is used in my old apple id, how can i move my old iCloud mail to my new apple id

    If the old ID is yours, and if it is an earlier version of your current ID, go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished 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 to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

    No, your accounts will remain separate, any content that you download via either account will be tied to that account - so each account will only be able to authorise its own downloads on your computer's iTunes, redownload them, download updates to its apps, and make in-app purchases in its apps.
    Is there are particular reason why you've created a new account ? If it's due to, for example, no longer having access to your old email account then you can update the email address on an account by tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and selecting 'view apple id' on the popup and logging into it, via the Store > View Account menu option on a computer's iTunes (click the Edit button to the right of your id at the top of your account's screen), or via http://appleid.apple.com . If you want to re-use the email address on the account that you've just created then you will need to change that first

    Got it! Thanx.  What I did was go to my account, check that they had my new ID and Password which they did, then hit reset button. All fixed.

  • Macbook upgraded from 10.5.8 to mountain lion. I lost the update when I tried to restore my old information. How can I get my update back without paying again?

    I took my mac to an iStore in South Africa however my country does not have an iStore. Macbook upgraded from 10.5.8 to mountain lion. I lost the update when I tried to restore my old information. How can I get my update back without paying again?

    Ok, that sounds like a valid approach...but now the question is, when you say you lost the upgrade when you tried to restore, exactly what do you mean?  Restore from a Time Machine backup, or another kind of backup?  What happened to the operating system when you did that?
    If it damaged the operating system, you should be able to recover it by restarting your computer holding either the Option key (should result in a grey screen that shows the macintosh hard drive and a recovery hard drive), or by holding the Command and R keys while starting.
    You can use the recovery hard drive to reinstall Mac OS X either way.  If the Option key restart, click on the recovery hard drive to boot from that.
    Then with either approach you will have a screen with a drop-down that gives you choices, such as install Mac OS X, Disk Utility, Terminal.  You will want to use Install (or Reinstall) Mac OS X...note, you must be connected to the internet from this point on.

  • I upgraded MacBook Pro (13-inch, Early 2011) to yosemite. I have no more access to Finder, App Store and some apps. Since I have no access to App Store I cannot download the missing  parts. How can I get access to App Store?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    What do you mean by having no access to those apps? Can you start up your Mac and work with it, and only some OS X apps do not work?
    Anyway, what you can try is to reinstall OS X. To do this, hold Command and R keys while your Mac is starting up and reinstall OS X. You will not lose any file.
