Apple account conflict on iPad.

My iPad is asking for a password (before updating an app) for an account which is not signed in as the recognised apple account for my iPad. Can anyone suggest why this has happened and how it could be resolved?

If it's what @Diavonex thinks it is, then your going to have to find out the other Apple ID and then go to that Apple ID and change the Password by one charater and go back to iTunes and enter the ID with the updated password and update the app.
The other way of doing it is deleting the app and repurchase it on your Apple ID.

  • I couldn't log into my apple account on my iPad, then i couldn't unlock it resulting in it being disabled, however it's the same as my iPhones password, I then called apple, i was hung up on twice and they said it will cost £70 to fix THEIR problem, help?

    If you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup).
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

  • Can we use 2 different apple accounts on one iPad?

    We have just bought an iPad and both already have iPhones. We are currently trying to set up our iPad but can only seem to have one ID in. Is there a way of logging in and out of the two different accounts on the one iPad?
    Any help would be appreciated! :)

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can only have one primary account on the iPad, logging in and out is possible but a bit of a nightmare.
    If it's just mail calendars and contacts you want to sync with for both accounts, you can add a secondary account in settings > mail, contacts & calendars.

  • How to change apple account in the ipad many times?(can't sign out)

    How to change accounts!
    I have multiple accounts not me but the whole family has apple accounts since we all are apples. Anyway everyone has a no credit card account except my dad. His account is synced in my sisters iPad. My dad changed the password so that we don't buy stuff the problem is we can't sign out of our dads account! I mean when we go to ipad:setting->store we already see that its already signed in my sisters account! But the problem is whenever my sister wants to update or download a free app it gives my dads email & wants us to fill the password! We already signed out!
    We tried logging in via itunes store then syncing the ipad but nothing happened!
    The apple retail store said after you submit the email of your ipad the only solution is to format it. But here is the big problem lets say we formatted it & after few days/months etc we wanted to buy an app we couldn't change the account to our dads account! Since we already are having trouble logging out of our dads account.
    So please tell me how to change the account many times! Because I couldn't change it in the iPad nor in iTunes in my iMAC.

    The apple retail store said after you submit the email of your ipad the only solution is to format it
    Your iPad does not have an email address.
    You will need to add a CC card to verify your account. The CC info can then be removed and the account used normally.
    It would likely be easier to simply update the apps on the computer then sync the iPad.
    iTunes can be authorized for all accounts then all apps can be updated at once.

  • HT1918 I am unable to sign in to my apple account from my ipad & iphone

    When I try to sign in to my Apple account from either my iPad or my iPhone, I enter my password and it just blanks it out.
    I can sign in to my account from my MacBook Pro, though.
    When I try to add a device to my list of authorized devices to download music or software, I can't.
    My devices used to be authorized, and now they aren't. 
    I never changed them, so how did they get deauthorized? 
    How do I authorize them as devices that can download music and apps?

    You will have to contact Apple Care and ask for account security for help. Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security

  • Is it possible to have multiply apple accounts on one ipad?

    GOing to buy the new iPad with my patner and we both have different accounts with Apple. Would it be possible to log in to either account on the iPad or will it be signed in to just one account? I have an iPhone and want to sync my songs onto the iPad and he wants to sync his iPod touch apps onto the iPad as well. How would we be able to do this?
    Thanks

  • Apple ID conflict on iPad and iPhone

    My Apple ID on my all three of my devices--iMac, iPad, and iPhone is:  [email protected] .   When I try to update apps on either my iPad or iPhone, in the pop up screen my Apple ID is [email protected]  an old Apple ID that is incorrect.  Because of this, conflict I cannot download or update applications to either my iPad or iPhone.   Any ideas how to correct this?

    Apps downloaded with a particular Apple Id are foerever tied to it, so any updates will always require that Apple ID.
    For purchases, you would need to sign out by going into Settings->Itunes & App Sotres, Apple ID ->Sign Out

  • If I buy iWork on my iPhone, will I be able to install that same iWork through my apple account onto an iPad and be able to use that full screen? Or do i have to pay for a iPad version of iWork, where the screen settings and other stuff are different?

    I'd like to get iWork on both my ipad 2 and iphone 4 mainly for traveling purposes... Right now I lent my iPad to my dad whose in somewhere else now so I don't have access to the iPad. So, I was wondering if right now I buy iWork onto my iPhone, and then when the iPad comes home, can I install that same iWork I bought through my apple acout and not have to pay for another version, and the iPad iWork can go full screen beautifully and not ugly?

    iWork is universal, so it will work full-res on the iPad. This is true for any app which has the plus sign symbol (in the App Store in iTunes it will say "This app is designed for iPhone and iPad".

  • HT1918 I can't log in to iTunes using my apple account my new iPad just keeps saying can't connect to iTunes, what do I do?

    I am struggling to log in for the first time after creating a new account where am I going wrong

    There are many situations that can block or interfere with wifi, however I doubt this is your issue or you would have issues across the range of internet services and you don't seem to.

  • HT5631 I don't know and i cant how to verify my ID Apple account in iPad how do I do please ?

    Please I don't know how to verify my new ID Apple account in my iPad so please If you know how tell me :) thanks !

    When you created the apple ID you should have received an email at the email address you used for it.
    From there you click on the link in the email to verify it.
    How do I verify my Apple ID by email?
    Simply follow the link in the verification email that says "Verify Now." Sign in with your current Apple ID and password, then click Verify Address. You can also verify by signing in at My Apple ID. You'll receive an email prompting you to verify.
