Apple-ID password incorrect in App Store on iPhon - Apple ID on Mac is OK

My colleague has a new Apple ID. He logs in on the web without problems. He has changed the password. Logging in still works fine. But when trying to download a free app from App Store, he enters the e-mail address and (new) password. And the iPhone says the password is incorrect??
He has tried a few times, with the same result. We have deleted the cookies, history and all that stuff in Safari. Also restarted the iPhone. No luck.
(I on the other hand has had no problems at all).
What can we do?

Hi. And how did you reconnect/reassign the iTunes ID and password to the iPhone ?
My problem is that I changed my e-mail address (and thus my Apple ID ?) on my iTunes on my PC, and now when I try ti update an application directly from the App Store to my iPhone it asks me for the iTunes Store password on my OLD e-mail address/Apple ID, and when I enter the password that used to correspond to that ID it says wrong ID/password
Waht do I do now ?

  • Hey Apple (: Just wondering if i block the facebook and twitter on my ipod touch with a password will is effect the password on the app store ?

    Hey Apple (: Just wondering if i block my facebook and twitter on my ipod with a password does this password effect the app store password or can they be different ?

    I did not blocked it . My mum did she got the people from the store to do it but i'm just worried that the password she use to block those sites might effect the password for my appstore. So you're saying that it won't effect and that i can use a different password ?

  • My Iphone 4S keeps telling me to reset my password with the app store, and after I do, it still says it needs to be reset and won't let me sign in

    My Iphone 4S asked me to reset my password for the app store, but after I reset it, it still asked me again as if it were invalid.  what to do?

    Okay - tried that and it didn't work either. HOWEVER ...
    I SEEM TO HAVE FOUND THE ISSUE! If this happens to anyone else, this might help you ...
    A while back I had to set up a second apple ID in order to use the iCloud. So now I have two (annoying), and from what I'm reading on forums, this has happened to many people and you still can't merge accounts. But I digress.
    Apparently the apps in question were purchased on one apple ID, but the phone had the other apple ID set within the app store. The store, it seems, will only update the apps if you're logged in as the account that initially purchased the apps. So it means going to Settings > Store > Log out, then log back in with the other ID. Annoying. But at least I know, now, what's going on.
    The password, it seems, was right all along (since I have the same password for both IDs). Too bad the phone's error message told me the password was incorrect, instead of saying something more useful like "This apple ID is not authorized to update this app." Or ... something like that. Apparently I've been chasing down the wrong solution due to the wrong error message being given.

  • My iPhone 5s is still asking for the password in the App Store.

    I just got the iPhone 5s yesterday. I setup the fingerprint scanner wich works great aside from one thing, It always asks me for my itunes password in the App Store. I have turned on the correct setting and I have updated to iOS 7.0.1. I have restrictions turned on since my kids use the phone alot. When I turn off restrictions everything works fine. This is definitely a bug. I asume apple will address this in an update soon, but has anyone found a fix for this?

    It's not a bug. If restriction is on, what do you expect?
    iPhone is meant for a single user, so if restrictions is set, you cannot use Touch ID to buy.

  • Forgot the password to delete app store

    i've made a password diffrent from my apple ID password to delete app store and other locked apps and now i forgott it. Can i reset the password?

    Not without remembering it, that is what makes a password secure.
    If you have Find My turned on in Settings > iCloud you can use your Apple ID and password to turn that off, and then you can restore to factory condition, that is erase all content and settings, to get rid of the other password.  There is no way to change it without having it.

    I am having the same problem.  I have changed my password and the problem continues.  I have been spoiled by Amazon support and wish my name added to the question.  Why is there no Apple support/response for this blog?

  • Changed my email address, confirmed my password. The App Store still has old address and does not recognize my password.

    Changed my email address, confirmed my password. The App Store has old email address and does not recognize the password?

    Easy fix... it's a refresh issue. Sign out and back in with changed name.

  • Is the password question  in app store occur each time i want to buy or i can change that in the settings to enter it just once?

    If by anychance i signed in app store to buy a game using my friend"s  ipad , and i forgot to sign out , does it mean that he can continue buying apps without facing the password question ? Or he must enter password for each purchase? Is it possible to save password from the first time signed in ?
    Is changing the password of my app store account sufficient enough to protect my privacy ?
    Thanks

    You would have to move to the U.S. and find a place to live.  Then you would have to get a credit card billed to that U.S address.  Then, as long as you were inside the borders of the U.S., you could buy from the U.S store.

  • App store in iphone looks stretched

    i have an iphone 4 and ipad 3rd gen.
    Sometimes when i use the app store.
    The app store in iphone looks like an ipad version ( stretched like ipads) . Bigger icons and need to pan to see the apps.
    The app store in iPad looks like a iphone version . smaller icons and it shriked to the left hand side of my ipad.
    Anybody is having this issue. any reasons for this. how to resolve this.

    Try to reset the password at this page:  iforgot.apple.com?
    If this does not work, because you have no recovery email address or don't remember your security questions, useone of the options described here in this link:
           Apple ID: All about Apple ID security questions
    If that is impossible for some reason, you need to give Apple Support a call - only they will be able to help you. See this webpage on how to contact Apple Support in your country: There are either telephone umbers given or an email form:

  • When I try to buy any app or song from iTunes app or app store on iPhone 5 it seems to start the stops and goes back to baseline in a second or two

    When I try to buy any app or song from iTunes app or app store on iPhone 5 it seems to start the stops and goes back to baseline in a second or two.
    It did it with my old iPhone 4 in last month or so, and it I hoped it would go once I updated to new iPhone 5. The problem has transferred to new phone too.
    I can't sign in to iTunes account on iPhone. It takes the password then resets to baseline. No error message comes up. On the base computer (pc) it will allow me to sign up and buy songs, apps etc. I can then sync the phone and put them on it. It just won't let me buy direct from the .
    As there are no error messages I am at a loss what to do. I have updated the payment details on my account, and my husband has an iPhone 4 and has no such problems. We share the same wifi. I have tried with 3G as well as wifi, with no luck.
    I am pretty much out of ideas, and have tried searching forums but there is so much overlap between queries that I can't find a similar problem from someone else, but I am sure it exists!
    Can anyone please help me?
    Thanks in advance
    Sarah

    I figured it out!
    I read a solution for something that sounded similar.
    Anyone in similar position:
    Open iTunes app on iPhone, and pick an option from bottom, such as music. Then scroll down to bottom of page and where your iTunes ID is, press on it, and pick sign out.
    Then return to home screen, and double press home button and press and hold on first icon showing, until a minus symbol appears in the top left of icons present. Press on each minus symbol on each app in turn, until all app icons have disappeared. Then Restart the phone by pressing and hold the home button and the on/off/standby button at top of phone, until the apple symbol appears in centre of blank screen.
    Swipe to turn phone fully on and open settings and scroll down to iTunes and apps option and tap that. Pick sign in and put in your apple ID, it will accept it and then return to home screen and open iTunes a you'll find it works fine
    Simple really, but some like me won't think f this themselves!
    Hope that helps

  • I bought garage band from the app store and downloaded it to my mac mini. When i try to open a screen comes up explaining i need to down load missing files. I do this but when try to open GB again the same thing keeps happening! Can anyone help.

    Hi, Hugo,
    In similar cases it helped to remove the GarageBand "Preferences" file from the User Library.
    Open the folder
        your home folder > Library > Preferences
    and move the file "com.apple.garageband.plist" to the Desktop.
    Then try again to launch GarageBand.

  • Apps store from iPhone lists in French

    When initially activated, my apps store brought up apps in English (my specified language on iPhone). When I went to apps store from iPhone over the weekend, all listings were in French. How do I change back to English (all other iPhone info is in English, including in my settings)?

    You can only sync to one computer at a time. If you switch to a new one all apps and other media files will be erased. Transfer your purchases before you sync to the new one. To do this, disable autosync, connect your phone, right click on it in the device list and choose "transfer purchases"
    Backup manually the same way. Before you start, make sure to sync again with your old computer and you have at least one contact and event set up on the new one to be able to merge data after the first sync. Restore the rest of your data using the backup you made before.

  • Can not access app store on iphone 5, comes up with blank screen?

    click on app store on iphone 5 and it comes up with blank screen , after awhile the section heading at the bottom of the screen such as top charts, updates, search , etc, but the main screen body is still blank.  Seems to be trying to connect but can't.  Any ideas?   Much appreciate it.
    Thanks!

    Do you have a case on the phone? If so, what case? If you do, then try removing the case and see if it works.
    If not, then try a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone should reboot. After that, try again.
