Can't update or purchase apps because old user name (MobileMe) comes up automatically and can't change to new user I'd

I can't update or purchase apps after changing my iTunes user I'd . Old (MobileMe) user id comes up automatically and doesn't allow change. How do I take care of this? I've even deleted MobileMe from iPad

Hmmm...
That should work. Go here to determine if there is perhaps a third Apple ID involved! If not, perhaps your memory isn't what is used to be. Change the password.
There have been some problems accessing pages on the Apple web site. If the hyperlink gives you a "We're sorry" message, try again.

Content and Apple IDs -
Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with one Apple ID with a new Apple ID.

My Iphone4 will not back up, there for I can not update without losing everything. I tunes tells me something is currupt and can not back up.

HT204266 I used an iTunes gift card on my iPad but although it said I have positive balance, also said that I can't update or buy anything because I have not provide a credit card, how can I avoid to put my credit card in the iPad?

I bought a iTunes card and I summited in my iPad, now that I want to used it to pay for Apps, it seems that it doesn't want to used the balance available from the iTunes card,
I disconect and connect back so, it can see the iTunes balance, but when is looking to connect it said that the connection with iTunes Store is impossible. Now I have apss that need updates and I can do it because I have a negative balance and a credit available in the iTunes card.
How can I make it switch to used the balance available.
Thank you for your kind response.

HT1689 Hello I traveled outside the country and now my ipad cannot update or purchase apps. It tells me to switch the the USA store to continue; therefore how can I change the purchasing process to the USA store?

I am currently in a different country and I do not know why it changed stores to the local country store. I need to change it to the USA store to perfom updates and purchases?
Can anyone help?
Thank you

Here's a little more information from a previous post:
iTunes Store content is country specific. When you change countries, you no longer receive app update notifications on your iOS device or in iTunes for the apps you purchased in your original country, nor do those Apps appear on your new country's Purchased page.
However, you will still be able to download those applications again for free if they are present on your new country's store (even if they are updated).You will not be charged and the download will not appear on your Purchased page. If a previously purchased app is not available in your new country, you will not be able to download it again.
The following article describes how to review your account's purchase history so that you may view the titles of the Apps you previously purchased:

Wrong apple ID on the login window when trying to update a purchased app

I can't update my purchased app even the free app as well. When I tap on the update button, it shows the apple ID as "[email protected]" on the login box. But that one is not my apple Id. This happening the app I bought from AppStore. I have already reseted my password then I did sign out and sign in restarting my iPad. Please give a solution.

Nice ID ....
Have you tried siginng into your won account in Settings>Store - you can sign out of Mr. Jobs account there and sign in with your own. You can also do this in the featured tab of the App Store in the bottom left corner of the screen.

Only the Apple ID used to buy an app can update an app. Apple does not merge Apple IDs and Apple does not transfer content biught with one ID to another ID.

I don't know what generation of iPot touch I have. If I am unable to download my paid apps because my iPod is too old, I'm not going to be pleased.
iPod touch, iOS 4.2

Sorry, there is no upgrade for your model based on what you've posted. See below:
See the chart below to determine whether you can upgrade your device and what you can upgrade to. If you do not have a Software Update option present on your iDevice, then you are trying to upgrade to iOS 5 or higher.

I installed Mavericks a few days ago and downloaded all the available updates, which installed correctly (or so it says). Now I can't open my iPhoto app because it says it's being updated. Any suggestions?

There are two ways to recover from this condition.
1. Select
Store ▹ View My Account
from the App Store menu bar, then select View hidden purchases. Stop or resume the download.
2. Open LaunchPad and find the icon of the app you're trying to install. There will be a small progress bar below it. Click the "X" to stop the download.

I changed my apple ID successfully online on my iPad and iPhone but when I wish to buy an app, the old ID comes up automatically and there seems to be nothing I can do, so I cannot update or buy any apps.

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.

It is easy to download items you have purchased from iTunes again; this article will walk you through it: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
You want the "Apps on iOS" section.

You need to be running Mac OS X 10.6.8 or newer to sync the iPhone 5; this may require buying a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store. OS upgrades aren't covered by the warranty.

Apple appears to be having trouble on their servers. Try again in a few hours.

I can not update my installed apps from the App Store Update page. I can individually update from the App Store Purchased page. I tried a soft reset but still unable. Any suggestions?

You are doing all that you cn do right now other than to update the apps in iTunes on your computer and sync them to the iPad.
There has been a problem with the App Store updates tab for a few days now and we are all waiting for Apple to fix it.
Look at all of the discussions on the iPad forum that are talking about this right now.
