Different account appeared when download & update apps.

How come everytime I download new apps it will show Apple account "A" but everytime when I update the apps it will show Apple account "B"?
Please help Thx..

It's probably happening because you have one or more apps that were purchased with Apple ID B. Apps and their updates are permanently tied to the Apple ID used to purchase them regardless of the settings on your phone in Settings>Store. The only way to stop the prompt for ID B would be to delete the apps purchased with this ID from your phone.

Same Apple ID appears on other devices when downloading/updating apps

My Apple ID appears on other family members' devices when they want to update or download apps despite having their own id s. Is there any ways I can sort this? Please help!

Thanks for your fast reply. My daughter has a new phone, bought it yesterday and logged into ITune on PC to sync songs and then wanted to download when noticed that devise asked for my ID so she hasn't downloaded anything yet! How would this change things?

I have 2 iPads. When downloading an app on one, it also appears on the other. I don't want to create a second iTunes account. How do I stop this?

On the device you do not want the auto downloads to be installed on: Settings/iTunes & App Store. Deselect what you do not want to be automatically downloaded.

How i used the new one to update these apps?

Your device can hold apps from multiple IDs, but to update them you have to swicth identities which is time consuming. If possible use only the one ID. If you need to reset the password for your old ID visit My Apple ID.

IPad App Store not downloading updated apps

I have an iPad 3 64GB that has been updated to iOS 8. In the last two days, the App Store will not download updated apps. It shows them with a red number, but when I click on Update, I get the circle with a square in the middle but then nothing proceeds. If I go to the individual app, it says "waiting…" but if I click it, it does not change to "paused" as it used to when waiting was shown.
My iPhone 5S is not having a problem, nor is iTunes on my computer.
Sometimes, if I sync the iPad with iTunes, the updated apps will copy over to the iPad, but not every time.
I have done a forced restart on the iPad and have also done a Reset All Settings under the General setting.
It appears that something has gone wrong with the App Store app. Does anyone have a suggestion as to how to fix this short of restoring the iPad to new status and reinstalling everything?

Hi,
Try deleting the apps with the issue from iTunes, and then download and update them again.

On your iPad tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account - that should give you a payments link on your account's page. Or on your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should also be a payment link.
Changing payment info : Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID)
If you don't get the 'none' option on the payment details screen : Why can’t I select None when I edit my Apple ID payment information?

Since upgrading to iOS 6 I am not getting prompted for my password when I update apps. Why is this?

When I updated apps on my ipad2 and iphone4S I used to get prompted for my password within a certain time. So I could update a couple and then 10 minutes later if I wanted to download or update something else I would need to put in my password again. Since I upgraded to iOS6, I don't believe I am prompted for my password the same amount of times. I updated an app this am after not using iPad through the night and it just updated, no password required. This has me concerned now because sometimes I bump buttons by accident and now I will be charged for these accidents. What has happened to Apple's brilliant security?

They've changed it in iOS and updates (and updates ONLY) do not require a password since it is really unnecessary as they have it on record that you were the one who bought the app. Why is more security needed, you aren't going to be charged for anything?
Next time you update and app go to the App Store and try to buy something. You will be asked for your password.

Unable to download/update apps, lost App World from BB9780 and unable to download App World again

Hi, I see posts about this subject but none have helped me so far. I seem to have accumulated 3 issues
Since a couple of weeks I am unable to download apps from the app world or update apps from the app world.
1. unable to download / update apps from App World
The progress bar of the download progresses some and the it hoves me the error "There was a problem during installation, please try again".
2. While trying to fix this issue 1, the App World icon has disappeared from my BB9780. On the desktop software I see that the App World stll shows as installed on my device (version 3.1.1.121). a search on my device shows nothing though.
3. I try to fix the issue 2 by reinstalling the App World. Everything goes well untill the language selection. Final message is whether I want to replace version 3.1.1.121 with version 3.1.1.121? When continuing I receive the error "Download failed". Detailed error mesage: "909 Application authentication failure".
Please help me how to fix this. I have tried:
-battery pulls
-security wipes
-time zone synch
nothing seems to help.
Thanks in advance. Rob

Hi, jimac.1729.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you are unable to download or update an App. Sometimes simply forcing all apps to close and restarting the device can resolve this issue. Also, try going through the steps outlined below.
Force an app to close in iOS
Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update(iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.

When downloading an app it asks for my apple ID password multiple times and never downloads the app

When downloading an app on my iPad 2, it asks me to verify my account info, and when I type in my password, it does nothing except keep asking for my password. It is not incorrect when I type it in, it just keeps asking for the password.

Go into Settings > Store and make sure your Apple ID information is exactly as it is in your iTunes account on your computer. Make sure your address is exactly the same. For example if your in iTunes on your computer is 1234 Jackson Street, it can't be 1234 Jackson St., on iPad. Make sure your credit card information matches exactly as well.

How do I download/update apps using my changed Apple ID?

I recently changed my Apple ID on my laptop and I had some difficulties with things on my iPod Touch 5g. Sometimes when I'm doing something my iPod asks fro my password for my old Apple ID. I just want to make it so my new ID will be properly connected on my iPod. So the problems that I'm having are downloading/updating apps on my iPod. I have like 6 apps to update so I try to update them and every time I try to update them it asks for my old Apple ID. How do I make it so I could update my apps without it asking for my password for my old ID?? Help!!!

To make having apps under two IDs as seamless as possible, go to Manage your Apple ID and change the password on the old ID to match the password on the new ID. Then it won't matter which ID is asking for a password, since it will be the same for both:
Apple - My Apple ID

I keep getting network connections error when downloading update for iPhone 4. Any suggestions?

I keep getting network connections error when downloading update for iPhone 4. Any suggestions?

I think I solved the problem by initiating the update in a different way, from the itunes panel where I can click to start the update, instead of saying yes when asked if I want to update when itunes launches in response to the iphone being plugged into the computer.

Downloading/updating apps

when downloading/updating an app, can i go back into the AppStore and download/update another app? if yes, is there a limit?

If you have a number of apps with an available update, there is no limit.
With iTunes on your computer, there is an option to update all apps with an update available, or you can update a selected app only. I usually download updates with iTunes on my computer, so I don't recall if the same is available when updating apps with your iPhone, but there is no limit.

I am using itunes 10.5. Update didnt work on last software but restore did work. Help

After two days of attempts, Google & Apple searches, one Apple post stated to turn off all firewalls and virus software and keep trying since there were 6 gazillion people trying to update. I have Windows 7 & Kaspersky and had to diable every single safety feature in Kaspersky as well as Firewalls and it finally allowed the download and update attempt.
Glancing at the forum, there appears to be numerous other problems with missing pictures, text problems etc after the IOS5 download but fortuneately, everything seems ok so far. Good luck, it is frustrating! Hattie47

I am no longer being asked for a password when downloading an app, big problem with kids

I am no longer being asked for a password when downloading an app or music in iTunes, big problem with kids. How do I enable

To elaborate further, in those restrictions you can specify exactly what types of actions you would like to restrict.
I think you'll find this accomplishes your objective.
