Apple ID, app downloads and removing devices

Question 1:
I have 2 Apple ID, the one I use now is ******.******@live.co.uk the old Apple ID was ******-******@live.co.uk but while I am not using this Apple ID some apps/music I am downloading are going through the old Apple ID, I have no idea why or how and I have forgotten the password for it anyway so can someone tell me why this is happening and how I stop it? also is there any way to delete the old Apple ID?
thanks
Question 2:
all the apps I have downloaded even the ones not in use (some of which I will never use again) are still stored in iCloud, is there any way to permanently delete apps which have previously been downloaded?
thanks
Question 3:
how do I permanently delete products i.e. iPhone 4s, iPod, iPad etc which I no longer have that are linked to my Apple ID ******.******@live.co.uk

1, what do you mean 'going through the old Apple ID' ?
You can reset an account's password via http://iforgot.apple.com
You can't delete an account, you can only remove any personal info from it and stop using it - all content that was downloaded with it will remain tied to it.
2, you can't permanently delete any item from your purchase history, all you can do is hide them via your computer's iTunes : iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases
3, delete them from where ? If you mean your support profile then you can log into your account and remove them : https://supportprofile.apple.com/
If you mean the 'manage devices' section of your account then you can remove them by logging into the account via your computer's iTunes : iTunes Store: Associating a device or computer to your Apple ID

    I have an Apple iphone 4s and for the last 4 weeks I cannot download or update any apps. I have an iPad and a Mac book pro and the apps download on these devices fine. My phone tells me that I have 12 updates but when I press update all or update any individually nothing happens at all. It also does not ask me for my password any more but my iPad and mac book do.
    I have signed in and out of the app store and the password is correct. I have tried both kinds of reboot but that did nothing. I have tried to update the apps by connecting phone to Mac book pro...it shows the apps being download on the Mac book and says it will sync them to my phone but it does not. Everything else on my phone works fine.
    Any ideas ...Please!

    Thank you, this has resolved both the iphone and ipad problem immediately.  I am concerned that I may have a problem with apps that I bought under my old  AppleID as they will not be recognised.  Any suggestions for this please?

  • How can I remove apps that I downloaded and removed from "purchased" at App Store?

    How can I remove some apps that I downloaded and removed from "purchased" list at App Store??
    Thanks Vic

    You can't remove apps from the purchased list. It's impossible. You can hide them but not delete them from the purchased list.
    Tap and hold down on the app icon until it wiggles then tap the X on the icon to delete it, tap the home button to stop apps from wiggling.

    I am trying to use the trial creative cloud software on a PC windows 8.1 - I've downloaded and removed Photoshop CC 2014 two times - every time I open the file it says there is a problem and it shuts down and closes. I can open indesign and maybe other apps but photoshop no. Any ideas?

    I don't think I can access the crash report? Excuse the ignorant questions I'm about to make am a relative tech novice.
    Soo - as mentioned every time I open photoshop it crashes - it just says there's an error and the program will shut down and if there's a solution windows will notify me. Then nothing...
    I've tried to look in photoshop files for the detailed crash report & the system event viewer but cannot find a file with those names. I've also looked in the windows files for files with those names but cannot find them either - so I don't know where to look.
    Any guidance would be great.

  • Syncing iTunes without loosing existing apps downloaded on the device?

    How can I sync apps downloaded in iTunes to my device, without loosing the apps downloaded on the device itself?
    If I sync, iTunes wants to overwrite all apps on the device! Like punching you for not downloading everything in itunes.
    How can I sync the new apps without loosing the existing apps on my phone? Or better yet, Can't you choose which library (iTune's or iPhone's) to overwrite?
    There must be a way, right? Help please

    Choose Authorize Computer from the Store menu in iTunes and then use the Transfer Purchases command.

  • Apple ID & App download problem

    I'm having the folliwing problem with my Apple ID. When my sister got her iPhone, you needed a Credit card to create an ID and she didn't have one. I used my ID to download basic apps on her phone back then. Later on, she changed the default apple ID on her phone but still, whatever App I purchase, automatically downloads on her phone too. I went to Manage decives and removed her phone, I Deauthorized all computers except for my laptop but she can still get all apps I download.
    How can I fix this?
    Thanks.

    have her go to settings/itunes&app stores/turn automatic downloads off on her device.

  • How can i control what apps download to what device

    my daughter has an ipod touch on my apple account but i dont want her device to automatically get all the apps i download on her device?

    First turn off automatic downloads on the devices. This is at Settings>Store> there will be on/off switches by apps, books, and music. These switches take new purchases and download them to all devices that this is turned on. Most people have an issue when connecting to the same computer with same user account. Regardless of Appleid used on device, it will store all apps and content together on the computer in itunes. Using separate user accounts on the computer will truly keep things separated. Remember to sync with correct user account or you may merge things together again.

  • Can anyone help me with app download and update issue

    please see attached link to thread i think i posted my question in the wrong place
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/19978622#19978622

    You posted in the correct forum last time and this time.
    Yes if does seem as though too many users are experiencing these issues. I don't know if any of these steps will help you. At one time or another, all of these have worked for other users, so maybe one will work for you. You already tried changing the date ahead, so I didn't include that in my boilerplate response here - which you can probably find 20 times on the iPad discussion site by now.
    I don't know if you have seen this one yet....
    Settings>Privacy>Location Services>System Services (swipe to the bottom of the page to find this)>Location Based iAds>Off.
    If the downloads are stalled or "waiting" - try these suggestions.
    Or this ...
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
    You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.
    If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

  • HI there, am having a big problem updating mu iphone due to me forgetting my password, can you tell me how to retrieve it. It seems like i have one apple id for downloads  and a different one for updates. Can you help ps.?

    Hi There
    Am having a big problem updating my iphone 4 Apps, due to a problem with my password for my apple id. But it seems that i have two different ids, one for the updates and another for the downloads. I am not able to retrieve my Id password for updating my Apps. Can you help me ps?
    Thank you

    What program did you use to fix the internal hard drive? What repairs did it report making? More crucially, if repairs were reported, did you re-run the utility until it reported no problems found? It's possible for one set of problems with a drive to mask others.
    If you have about 5GB or so free space on the internal hard drive, you can use your OS X Install disc to perform an Archive and Install to recover from the failed Software Update. When the computer restarts, download and run the OS X Update Combo 10.4.11 (Universal). When the Mac restarts after that, run Software Update. During all this, make sure nothing interrupts or shuts down the Mac! Note that the first start after each of these updates will take significantly longer than subsequent starts, so be very patient.
    How did you back up your internal drive to the external one? Did you just drag things over in the Finder, or did you use a utility such as SuperDuper! or CarbonCopyCloner? Does the external HD show up as a bootable volume in System Preferences > Startup Disk, or using Startup Manager?

  • Good wireless in house, slow Apple TV in downloads and syncing.  ATV issue?

    OK - I just did a internet Ping test and bandwidth test and have found that my overall bandwidth is good, but my ATV is still very slow on downloads and syncing.
    My bandwidth is over 6.6mbps and ping rates are nearly 45ms.
    Here is my issue - I often have no images show up on ATV when I am browsing the movies. I also have to restart for lack of response to the remote about every other day, sometimes every day.
    Am I looking at my wireless in the house (running Time Capsule) or is this an ATV issue? I have good overall connectivity and internet downloads via iTunes, etc.
    Your insight is appreciated.

    You may or may not already have your network set up correctly, it's just that I can't tell from what you have said.
    I have a main router provided by my ISP, I have several other Airport Extremes and Airport expresses connected by Ethernet, all set up to bridge the network created by the main router.
    Each maker has their own settings, but bridging should be reasonably obvious. In simple terms my main router distributes IP addresses to all devices, the Airports bridge that network by passing these addresses to the devices from the main router. A base station that isn't in bridging mode will distribute its own addresses to the devices connected to it.
    I don't really follow your next point.
    instruction for configuration vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, the best course of action here is to refer to the manual. If everything is set up properly the addresses of everything on your network will have identical sets of numbers for the first 3 of 4 groups of numbers that make up an address, the last set must always be different. I think the part you are referring to with your DD-WRT is the option to have Ethernet and wifi bridged or not.
    Some routers may be easier to configure than others, but generally speaking they should all work with the Apple TV. 5Ghz is less likely to suffer interference but it is much more likely to be blocked by solid objects, it may or may not be an advantage.

  • Slow App Download and Install on iPod Touch

    My new iPod touch is painfully slow when accessing the itunes store, dowloading and installing apps over my home WiFi.  My iPad works just fine over the same connection.  Meaning I can download and install an app to my iPad in seconds and it takes literally an hour to do the same thing on my new iPod Touch.  Any ideas?

    Have you tried downloading and installing apps on your iPad today though? Lots of people will have got new iOS devices today, and will all be trying to download apps form the Store at the same time - possibly causing it to be much slower than usual.
