Asking for someone else Password

I am being asked for for family password when wanting to update my apps on a new ipad . I am at their house and did try to connect to their wireless. But have since disconnected. I never bought any apps with their ID but did allow them to backup their apps on my computer but using their own ID. Now I want to update my apps it asks me for the password of my family ID but if I want to purchase a App it asks me for my password. This is happening while I am at there house. What can I do to rectify it?

It's even asking for someone else password from any destination now not just when I am that house.

  • Why does App Store update ask me for someone else's Apple ID?

    I have 14 Apps that have updates available.  I was able to update a few using my Apple ID.  However, the rest all pop up with a message asking for someone else's Apple ID and Password when I click on Update.
    I know this person but all the apps were downloaded using my Apple ID so I do not understand why it is asking me for his password and showing me his Apple ID.
    I have tried signing off and back on but still get the same results.  This is fairly new problem.  I used to be able to use my own Apple ID to upgrade the apps on my phone.  But not anymore.  I do not have this person's password so I am unable to complete the update.
    Any ideas on how to change this behavior?
    Thanks

    Those apps were apparently purchased on the other person's Apple ID or were transferred to your computer from the other person's computer. Those apps are not registered against your Apple ID. Either you use the Apple ID and password of this other person or you purchase the apps using your Apple ID.
    It's simple enough to check your Purchases page in the App Store to see if these apps are listed for you.

    I have the exact same problem. I recently upgraded my iphone from a 4s to a 5c and I never used a different Apple ID. What should I do now so that my Apple ID shows up instead of someone else's?
    A ssuggested above...
    On iPhone:
    Settings > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID: > sign out then sign in the correct Apple ID.

  • While I was starting "word search" a question appeared asking for my Apple password so I gave it.  It disappeared, and I was in the program.  Is this common?  I didn't feel comfortable after that. Could someone have hacked my password?

    I was starting my "search word" game tonight as I always do, when a question asking for my Apple password appeared in order to play. So I entered my password.  The question disappeared and I could continue the game.  After that I felt very uncomfortable.  Is this a common thing to happen? Has it happened to anyone else.  Can't get a hold of anyone at Apple because it's after hours....

    Change your Apple ID password.

    The message you are quoting says to contact iTunes Support, not this user-to-user discussion forum.
    But anyway, see this document on how to find the credit card security code:

    When I try to combine two pdf's, it asks for a permission password and says the documents are protected; however, I didn't put any protection/security in the documents.  I assume it is a default security under the enhanced security settings of the Acrobat Pro XI which I recently purchased.

    Acrobat (Pro or Standard) does not apply a "default" protection. It appears that someone or some other process has applied protection.

  • How to stop the ATV asking for Apple ID Password

    I just upgraded to 6. Now everytime the ATV boots up (I turn it off at night) it asks for my AppleID password. This never happened under 5.x. I do not rent or buy iTunes stuff from my ATV. I do not want to enter my password because I never had to under 5.x, how can I stop it asking for my password?

    In case anyone else gets this I hit cancel once and it has never come back.

  • When i try to get a App it asks for my exchange password and im not real sure what that means?

    I have a iphone3 and when i try to get a App it is asking for my EXCHANG password and im not sure what that is. Its not my apple account password bc i tried that, someone please help!

    Do you have an Exchange Mail account on your phone?  "Get an App" - are you referring to downloading from the App Store?  That should NOT ask for an Exchange acct password, only your iTunes account password.

  • Why is my iPhone asking for my iTunes password randomly and repeatedly?

    I have seen this question in several discussions, but all are archived. None had an answer.   I have 3 iPhone 4S's and 3 iPod Touch 4g's.  All, radomly but frequently enough to be annoying, display a pop up screen when first using the iPhone/Pod Touch (normally from sleep mode) asking for your iTunes password.  It gives you the option to select "cancel" or "enter"and sometimes I just hit cancel b/c I am so fed up with this.  I notice no problems if I do not enter my password and hit "cancel."  But, who knows if something is compromised by not giving the device what it "wants."   So, most of the time  I enter my password hoping that will satisfy the "beast" and it will not ask for it anymore.  No luck.
    I hope someone knows the answer to this before the "Gods of Archive" close this question/discussion.  I have to believe something is going on that is not right.
    One iPhone 4S and iPod Touch 4g is running off a MacBook Pro running Lion 10.7.3
    Two iPhone 4s's and two iPod Touch 4g's are running off MacBook Pros running Snow Leopard 10.6.8
    All devices are sharing the SAME iTunes password for apps, music, etc.
    Best, Mr. Luigi

    For those who might be experiencing this same problem, I'll pass on the things I try and whether it meets with any success or not.
    Here is my latest idea:
    As I mentioned earlier, our family of 3 shares 1 itunes account for apps, music...This way, one song, one app, whatever purchased by one of us can be used on the other's iDevices.  Up until recently we had 8 devices sharing this one account:
    3 MacBook Pros
    3 iPhone 4S's
    1 iPad Original + 3g
    1 iPad 2 +3g
    Then we were given 3 iPod Touch 4th generation devices.  I set them up and things seemed ok. Seemed...
    Then I noticed in the iCloud "Account Info" for this 1 account the 1 iPad Original + 3g was not listed as included with this Apple account.  Hm...
    In iTunes, I had 'Automatically Sync New Apps" turned ON for the iPad Original + 3g.  However, I noticed in the actual iPad Original + 3g that when I went to Settings --> Store,  Automatic Downloads for Music, Apps, and Books was set to OFF.  So, I naturally turned those to ON to coordinate with the "Automatically Sync New Apps" setting for this device in iTunes.  Next time I turned on that iPad a warning pop-up appeared that said only TEN devices could be associated with 1 iTunes account for automatic downloads.  Hm...
    I thought that perhaps having all our iDevices (8 of them) set to "Automatically Sync New Apps" was confusing iTunes because that meant I was asking it to Sync New App to 11 total devices (including my 3 computers).
    So, I am going to watch and see if anything happens by taking our original iPad out of the "loop."  Maybe this sorta random having to enter my password is because iTunes can't "handle" having 11 devices asking for app syncing when Apple has told it to only allow 10 devices.  (BTW, I think that Apple needs to change this rule now that it has Computers, iPhones, iPod Touches, AND iPads competing for those precious 10 spots.  It's easy to use them up even for a small family of 3 like ours.)
    If this has confused you, welcome to the club.  There is another discussion focused on families and their use of the new iCloud service.  It's a gargantuan discussion, so I'm not the only one perplexed as to the best way to manage a house of Apple Products sharing an iTunes account.
    All I can hope is that I am now confused at a higher level, and about more appropriate things so that eventually I may figure this out. Bye.

  • Setup on new iMac, asking for a Keychain Password for com.apple.smig

    I am doing setup on new iMac, we have the old iMac asking for a Keychain Password for com.apple.smig.
    Does anyone know what this is? What is it looking for?

    Has anyone else figured this out? I'm getting it on every machine I upgrade and I have about 18 more to go and would like to fix it.
    These are brand new iMac's shipped with Mountain Lion. I turn them on and the third screen asks if you want to transfer items from a backup or another Mac. I choose another Mac. Then use Migration Assistant on the users old machine (running Snow Leopard 10.6.8) and then let it transfer all of their files.
    At just about the end of the transfer the new Mac pops up this error and waits until an action is taken. I've tried every password it could have been on the previous users machine to no avial. The only option appears to be hitting cancel and movi ng on but I'd like to know what is breaking when this happens becase the machines exhibit a strange spinning wheel hang when logging in afterwards?
    Here's a screen shot of the new iMac and the problem:
    Thanks!

  • Getting calls for someone else

    We are getting calls for someone else who had our phone number before. Since verizon uses recycled numbers they want to charge us $22.00 to change our number for another recycled number. We should not have to pay for this since the problem on their end.  On the white pages.com also has their name under our number.  I feel they should change it at no charge since its not out problem plus it can happen next number they give us. So we are soppose keep verizon $22.00 until it stops.  I called Verizon twice about this issue and nothing was solved. when I asked them to speak to the supervisor they told me NO!

  • When i try to download facebook it ask for my apple password when i give it than it says my apple account is disable. how do i get it enable?

    I have just purchased an iphone and I am trying to get facebook on my phone. When I get the app to upload it is asking for my apple password. I put that into the phone and it gives me a message "your apple id has been disabled." Now when I log into apple i have no problem with my apple id or the password. How can I get my phone to read I have a good account with apple?

    you need to contact iTunes store support for that, it's possible that they will refer you to an AppleCare Account Security Team
    1. Go to expresslane.apple.com
    2. select 'itunes' and then 'itunes store' on the right
    3. select a topic and a subject
    4. click 'continue' and then 'email'
    5. fill out the form and explain your situation
    6. they will respond within 24 hours usually
    Good luck
