Divorce - Free apps need to be associated with ex not me

When he goes to update an app, it wants my Apple ID and password. Fine when we were together but not so fine anymore. I know that once you download an app, the Apple ID stays with it. So, I deleted an app as a test from iTunes and from his iPhone. Then I went to the iTunes store and downloaded the same app under his Apple ID and password. Now, when I click on that app in the iTunes App library, it does show his Apple ID not mine. But, I can't get the app to move to his phone despite numerous syncs. If I click on the Apps tab on his phone and click the Sync Apps box, his apps will be replaced with what is in the library not what is already on his phone. I don't want to wipe out anything he already had on his phone. If I go to the App Store on his phone to redownload the app I deleted, it still shows MY Apple ID and wants MY password. I did do a transfer purchases from his iPhone but clicking the Sync App box makes me nervous. I also cannot drag from his library to his phone to try to put the app on that way.
Any advice? Is there a way to make this easier rather than one app at a time?
Thanks!

Go to "Settings" app (if you can) and got to "General" and scroll down to the bottom and go into "Reset". Then hit the button that says "Reset All Settings" and then click ok. if that doesn't do anything. try updating. This is not a widely reported problem so if the update doesn't fix it, it may be a problem with your phone.

I'm just wondering when IOS7 will come out for Ipod 4th gen. because half the free apps need the new IOS!!

I'm just wondering when IOS7 will come out for Ipod 4th gen. because half the free apps need the new IOS!!

Some apps have older versions available.
Try this if you want an App that says you need iOS 7 or later:
Go to iTunes on a computer or on a device running iOS 7 and find the app you want and download it using your Apple ID and password.
Now go back to your iPod Touch Gen 4 and go to the App Store and tap updates at the bottom right, then tap Purchased at the top. Find the app on the list that you just downloaded on the computer (or other device) and tap the cloud to download it. If it has an alternate version available that is compatible with your iOS, it will prompt you and allow you to download that.

Please tell us more as "not working" can mean a lot of things. So:
Are they user or workstation associated?
Are those for whick they do not work (users or workstations) all in the
same container?
In what way do they not work?
Any errors?

Can't update apps, wrong iTunes account associated with them.

I have just a handful of applications that when I try to update the the app store app prompts me for a password to my other account which the apps were not purchased on. All the apps were validly purchased on the first account, but now the apps are associated with my second itunes account and I can't update them. I've gone into the app store app and set the account to my first account but that does nothing for the update, it keeps prompting me for my password for my second account. I need it to switch back to the first account for these few apps. What's odd is that every other app updates just fine and are associated with the correct account, except for just these few. Any thoughts?
The message I get is that "this discounted price is only available to owners of previous versions.... blah blah." well, I own the previous version, that's how I got it on the iPad. But it's a different account. The update prompt does not allow you to change the username/email, only enter a password. Anyhoo, this is getting annoying.

I ran into the same problem. I had purchased apps using more than one account. When updating apps, I would get errors. Here's what I did to fix it . . . not easy, though.
First, attempt to update your apps on the PC. This will update all of the apps associated with the current account on iTunes.
1) Double-clicked in Apps iTunes (on PC)to open the Apps in another window
2) Arranged windows so I could see both my apps window and the main itunes window side by side.
3) Select an app in the apps window
4) Click on the down arrow right next to the name the Name column which and choose the app name from the drop down list. This will open the app info from the iTunes store in the main iTunes window.
5) Compare the versions. If the Store version is newer, delete the app from the iPhone and from the PC.
Repeat for each app.
Time-consuming but it works.

HT1918 Can I take off the last purchase that I couldn't afford please so I could download free apps please. I'm going crazy not being able to download apps.

Can we please take off the purchase I couldn't afford please so I could continue to download free apps please. I beg you

TS1292 I really dont know were the card is .I just want to move on past the redeem section and buy or get free apps as I am stuck with about 25 choices and I am tired of trying to just move forward

I just want to move on down the list of options to buy or get the apps free as I do not have the cdaed or the code and it stops me from going forward.

Not entirely sure what the problem is - is this an existing account or are you trying to create a new account ? If you want to be able to buy apps then you need a payment method on it. If you are trying to create a new account and you don't have a gift card or credit card with you then you can follow the instructions on this page for creating a new account without giving a credit card number (you can then add payment details if/when you want to buy something and not just get free items) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

HT204053 Can two different icloud accounts used for the same mac computer and same Itunes account still transfer photos and downloaded apps to all devices associated with that mac?

I purchased my wife an Iphone and we currently use the same icloud account, but we just ran out of storage. I'm not sure if we need so much more space that I'm ready to upgrade to 15 total GB of storage. If my wife sets up her own icloud account for her iphone will she and I still be able to share our photos, downloaded apps and music with different icloud accounts?

Apps and music aren't anything to do with your iCloud account, indeed you can use different ID's for each.
If you create and use another ID for iCloud, you will not be able to share both photostreams to the same user account on the computer.
This could be worked around with a second user account on the computer for the second user to do all their computing in. However you may find that photostreams shared albums will work around the problem for you. For example if you create a shared album and share it with your partner, any photos you add to that album will be available in your partners photostream on the computer.

My 4od app needs update but my ipad1 is not compatible with the new version on update what do I need to do??

Can't update to the new version of 4od app as my ipad1 is not compatable with new update, what can I do to get 4od now??

I have the same problem. I'm asked to update, told I should download the latest compatible version and once I have done so the app won't work until I update to the latest version! Just let me use the old version please. Any advice about how to break the circle (other than buy a new iPad) would be appreciated.
If you have regularly sync'd your purchased content with iTunes on your computer, and you have NOT downloaded updates in iTunes, then you may have the older version available in iTunes to install.
Delete the app from your iPad, connect to iTunes and choose the older version from your list of apps to install and then let it sync.
However, unless you have kept a copy of the older version like that, then you are stuck now. The App developer has likely pulled the older version from the store, so only the newer version is available in the App Store.

Is there a way to sync the Notes app on my iPod Touch with the Notes on my desktop without using iCloud

I've been reading some of the other threads about this issue, but most, if not all, suggest using iCloud. I'm wary of setting up an iCloud account because I've heard that "once your information is 'in the cloud' it can't be deleted", and I just don't know how true that is.
Is there a way to sync the two apps by some other means that bypasses "the cloud"?

I think that cloud privacy concerns are overdone - especially with Apple who don't have a vested interest in snooping through your data like Google does!
Do you use email? It's stored in the cloud on the providers servers - no matter who the provider is.
Do you use SMS on a phone? They're stored on a server somewhere!
Do you use the internet? The logs are stored at your ISP for some period of time - tracking everywhere you've been.
Thats why I am comfortable to use iCloud for most of my documents. If I want to transfer files very securely, I put them in an encrypted disk image on Dropbox.
Cheers,
Rodney

Silverlight app in Lync CWE fails with "Client not trusted", despite being added to trusted sites

We're trying to get a silverlight app up and running in a Lync 2013 CWE. We have a Lync 2010 server on it's own domain, which is not the same domain as the 2013 client machine. Clients on the different domains communicate perfectly.
The silverlight app is hosted on our own webserver, which is in the same domain as the 2013 client machine. We tried hosting it on the other domain, with the same result.
YES, we've added the domain to our trusted sites in registry, but still we get the exception.
The line that fails:
_conversation = (Conversation)LyncClient.GetHostingConversation();
How to get the app to work in our client?

Please check “How to: Install a CWE application in Lync SDK” at

How do I transfer free apps to a new user

I have a new iPhone 4; gave the 3Gs to my wife.
Connected the 3Gs to her iMac and chose NOT to reset or restore it.
# Renamed the phone.
# Dumped all paid apps from the phone, leaving only the free ones.
# All my old Apps stayed on the phone but my folders got all screwed up and I had to fix them.
# Logged on to the ITunes Store, set up an account for my wife.
# Got the confirmation email from Apple and logged in with that account.
# Wiped my email accounts from the phone and added my wives and tried them out. All OK.
# Replace the music with the music on her iMac.
# Replaced the contents of the Address book with the content from hers.
# Replaced the bookmarks for Safari with her bookmarks.
# Went to the phone to Settings > Store and logged her into the Store via the cellphone.
It's all great.... except:
One remaining problem: When the App Store App shows two free Apps to be updated (Around Me and Speedtest), when I click on Update All, the iTunes Password box opens and the username it is associated with is the one associated with my iTunes account, not her new one. Inputting the password for her account will of course not work.
I have tried everything and can see no way to get my username disassociated from the ITunes account on what is now her phone and get her username associated with it.
Does anyone have the answer to this one???
Many, many thanks if you do. If I have to rest the whole phone, it will take me days to reconstitute it to the point it was at when I got my iPone 4.
Say it isn't so, Sam.

You cannot transfer an app's registration to another iTunes Store account, so those copies of those apps will always be associated with your iTunes Store account. Your wife will need to enter in your iTunes Store account ID and password to be able to update any apps acquired (whether free or purchase) via your iTunes Store account.
The alternative is for her to download those same apps using her own iTunes Store account. If they're still free, there should be no problem. Then she can remove your copies from the iPhone and sync the copies purchased via her iTunes Store account.
Regards.

Unable to updates "free" apps on my phone, says payment method incorrect

Free apps need to update, won't

If you have. Credit card associated with your Apple ID, it must still be kept up to date, even if you want to update or download free apps. Do you have a credit card associated with the ID?

I started to download a free app but it's too big to load without connecting to wifi. I want to delete it. Can anyone tell me how to do it please?

I tried to download a free app. It came up with an error message saying it was too big to download and that I need to connect to WiFi. The icon is still displayed and I can't delete it (I've decided I don't want it. Can anyone tell me how to delete it - there's no x displayed on the icon. Thanks

Hi stripers
You will either a) need to connect to WiFi and complete the download or b) dock your iPad and remove it from the apps list once synced (your iTunes will more then likely want to complete the download first also, which you may be able to cancel in the downloads section).

But is Kaspersky any good? It calls itself anti-malware as well, but I'm nervous about anything -- althought woud it work on my windows partition well? I have AVG currently, but I donat know much about these things.
So if I want to delete all these free apps, how do I do it? is it simply a matter of dragging them to the trash? and if so should i do a secure empty trash with them?
Is there ANY kind of good anti-virus/spyware/malware available for Mac or are they unneccessary?
-- now that I look at my invocie, the free apps need to be downloadad separately, so if I got anything than I woud get Kaspersky (AVG's all right, but it also always opens up a window when I start parallels; it didn't do that before; really annyoing). Can anyone tell my if Kaspersky is better/more efficient, etc?

Generally speaking, "free" apps bundled with software such as Parallels is anything but, and are likely to cost you dearly in time, money, lost data, or all of the above. Delete all those you mentioned and don't look back.
1Password may be an exception. I don't use it since iCloud Keychain is free but many people use 1Password and seem to like it. Get it from the Mac App Store. If the version included is "free" its functions may be limited.
Is there ANY kind of good anti-virus/spyware/malware available for Mac or are they unneccessary?
OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it that way with software updates from Apple.
A much better question is "how should I protect my Mac":
Never install any product that claims to "speed up", "clean up", "optimize", or "accelerate" your Mac. Without exception, they will do the opposite.
Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources. Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iTunes or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
Disable Java in Safari > Preferences > Security.
Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
Block browser popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > and check "Block popup windows":
Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but popups have devolved to become a common means to deliver targeted advertising that you probably do not want.
Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
If you ever see a popup indicating it detected registry errors, that your Mac is infected with some ick, or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. To date, most of these attempts have been pathetic and are easily recognized, but that is likely to change in the future as criminals become more clever.
OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind.
