Can't update apps.  Ipad asking for password to old email address

I I'd updated my email address several months ago.  The App Store app worked fine.  Now all of a sudden it's asking me to log in using the old email address and wants the old password.  In settings for both the App Store and iTunes are correct.  I can sign out and sign in from the settings menu but cannot update my apps through the App Store app itself.  This just started today.  How do I fix this?

IIf you got the app with your old email you can not change it, you need to update it with your old one. If you get any app with one email you can only use one email. Even if you log into your new email from itunes( scroll under and click on the email and sign out and log in with new email) it still won't let you do it with your other email. Sorry. You can not use different emails for some things.      You can go to settings-iTunes and AppStore- update apps( it means it will automatically update apps) it does work, but uses a lot of battery usage. I hve had it on for a long time but I don't mind.   hope this helped.

    If you can't get the password reset via http://iforgot.apple.com (you can't remember your answers to your security questions ?) then try contacting Support in your country and see if they can reset your password for you.

  • I am trying to update Apps and it is showing an old email address how can I change to my new email address?

    I am trying to update my apps and I need to change it to my new email how do I do that?

    - Apps are locked to the account that purchased them.
    - To update apps you have to sign into the account that purchased the apps. If you have apps that need updating purchased from more than one account you have to update them one at a time until the remaining apps were purchased from one account.

    When trying to update apps it asks for account password but it doesn't show my account ID, it shows my dad's. How can I fix this so I can sign in?

    It sounds like the apps were purchased using your dads account, so they will have to be updated using that account.

    I was wondering if you ever figured this out. I have the same issue. When I try to use the support communities, there are so many with the same problems and never seem to be any replys?? Not very helpful and I can not get Apple to return my emails.

  • HT5622 I own three Apple devices, but my iPad remained associated with my old email address and password. How can I register it with the same new email and password?

    I own three Apple devices, but my iPad remained associated with my old email address and password. How can I register it with the same new email and password?

    If you updated your existing account then try logging out of it on the iPad by tapping on the id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on the iPad. If you created a new account then any content that you purchased/downloaded via the old account will remain tied to that old account, and only that old account can download updates to its apps.

  • I can't update apps on iPhone because of an old Apple ID.

    I have a new apple Id and no longer have access
    to my old one and I can't update apps on my iPhone because
    the old apple ID pops up. I've added the new ID to my
    Phone settings but it keeps popping up when I'm in
    the apps store. Any ideas?

    First, you are digging up a thread that has been dead for almost a year. So you have no idea what the context of the ASC was at that time and what folks were posting over and over here.
    Secondly if you spend just a little time on the ASC you will quickly learn that folks make random Apple ID accounts all of the time.
    As far as the exact situation which you mention, you can change the primary email account associated with an Apple ID, without changing the ID, which is why I have an @mac.com Apple ID that uses an @gmail.com email address. And it was for the very reason you mention, I got the @mac.com account (accounts which pre-date @me.com by a number of years) for a free trial, but didn't feel that I wanted to pay $100 a year to use it after the trial period ended, but I had used the account during the trial to acquire a lot of Apple content that I did not wish to loose.

  • I have changed my email address and changed my Apple ID. However iCloud on my ipad and an ipad mini still shows my old email address. How can I change my iCloud email address?

    I have changed my email address and changed my Apple ID. However iCloud on my ipad and an ipad mini still shows my old email address. How can I change my iCloud email address?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your iOS device, you need to delete the account from your iOS device first, then add it back using your updated details. (Settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit "Delete Account")
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iTunes account on your iOS device, you need to sign out from your iOS device first, then sign back in using your updated details. (Settings > iTunes & App store, scroll down and tap your ID)
    If you are using iMessages or FaceTime, you will also need to log out and into your ID there too.

  • Trying to erase settings from my old iphone but when I have to enter my itunes ID password the old email address is displayed.  How can I change this to my existing itunes account so I can reset this phone?  Thank you.

    Trying to erase settings from my old iphone but when I have to enter my itunes ID password the old email address is displayed.  How can I change this to my existing itunes account so I can reset this phone?  Thanks in advance.

    I know it sounds weird, and that is the reason I posted my question.  Because my case is not like all the ones I've found online and it's confusing.  I added a screen capture of my itunes with my old iphone (the one that houses my playlists) connected to it.
    My playlists "ARE"  in my iphone 4s.  They are still there even though they do not show up when I plug in to itunes in my computer. 
    When connecting my phone to itunes on my macbook, the playlists do not appear anywhere in itunes.  I have found my connected iphone icon, I have clicked on the arrow next to it and it does pull up the standard lists that come with the iphone/itunes:  Music, Movies, TV shows, books.  That's it! below that is "Genius" and below "Geniuns" is "PLAYLISTS"  but the only playlist of mine that shows there is one that I created several years back titled "90's music" and that one I created it on my computer, not my phone.  Under "90's music" there are also other standard playlists that itunes automatically adds.
    Does anyone else have this issue or know how to get around this.  I am starting to think that I am going to have to recreate these lists on my computer

  • I signed out of an itunes account to a new one, however when trying to update apps it asks for the password for the old account, how do i get rid of this?

    I have an old iphone with old itunes accounts.  I have signed out of these in the settings tab and put in the new account, however when i go to the App store to update apps it comes up with the old account and there are no other options.  I cannot see this account anywhere else, does anyone have any suggestions?

    You can't.  Apps are forever tied to the AppleID that purchased them.  Delete the apps with the old AppleID and purchase them with the new AppleID.

  • App Store asks for password to wife's apple id

    Had my Iphone 4 replaced at the store yesterday, all restored fine from backup however when I go to update my apps it asks for my wifes password to her id!
    My wifes phone is synced on the same pc.
    I have checked all settings in the phone and they contain my own apple id details.
    Upgraded phone software to 4.3.5 (didn't work before, doesn't work after)
    Itunes recognises phone as my own.
    Have restarted phone and itunes.
    No success, help.
    Thanks

    If the apps were bought with your wife's Apple ID, then they need to be authorized with her ID for use on your iPhone.
