How do i change the old apple id that comes up when i want updates to my new apple id?

I want to update my apps on my iphone but i am not able to because i have an old apple id that keeps coming up. is there a way to remove the old id and replace it with the new apple id.  i do not have the password for the previous id and i keep going to apple support but i never get an email to reset password. Help!

That's up to you.  Apps are tied to the ID so you will only be able to use apps purchased to a specific ID when logged in as that ID.

    In iClouds...How do i change the old Apple ID email to the new one I created with

    Do the following:
    Make sure you are signed into iMessage and FaceTime with your current ID.  If they are signed into the old ID, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and Settings>FaceTime, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with your current ID.
    Then temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  (You should not have to verify the old email account so it doesn’t matter if you no longer have access to it.)  Now go to Settings>iCloud, turn off Find My iDevice and enter your current password when prompted (even though it prompts you for the password for your old ID).  Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll (unless using iCloud Photo Library).  When finished goThen go to Settings>iCloud, tap Sign Out and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign back in with your current iCloud ID and password (your data will download back to your device).

  • How can i change the settings to have a prompt massage when I want to download a duplicate file

    When I download a file, if a same file name already exists in the same download folder, firefox downloads the file and renames it by adding numeric (1) to the file name. I want the firebox to give me a prompt when same file already exist, rather than automatically renaming it by adding suffix (1)

  • HT204053 how do i change the old apple id to my new id on my ipod touch so i can download new apps?

    can anyone help me change my apple id to my new one?

    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 > store, scroll down and tap your ID)

  • TS1702 How do change the old Apple ID username and password to the updated username and password for the apps store?

    How do you change the old Apple ID username and password to the updated username and password in order to get updated apps from the app store?

    Do you mean you kept the same account but you only updated your AppleID?
    Just log out and log back in with new ID.
    Note that the AppleID is embedded into the item at purchase and cannot be changed.
    However, when you change your AppleID, it will link the old account name to the new account name so you will not have any problems updating apps using the new AppleID.

  • HT1222 how can i change the old owners keychain password into mine

    how can i change an old owners keychain password into mine so i can update software

    Create a new keychain.
    I'd generally suggest acquiring and wiping and installing the most recent version of OS X onto the system that it'll support, as you'll spend more time and effort undoing what was done before.  You can usually get the proper distro with a call to Apple.
    Given the iBook is PPC, you'll be limited to Leopard (10.5) at most, and possibly not that version.

  • How do I get the old Apple ID off of my iPhone and the new one installed?

    I got a MacBook Pro and decided to create a new Apple ID different from the one I previously had. How do I get the old Apple ID off my iPhone and the new one installed?

    When I tried this, my music stayed the same whereas my new iTunes has only about half the music it used to.  How can I get all the music to clear out so that it can sync my new music to it.  Simply connecting it to the MacBook Pro and pressing Sync has not worked.
