How do I delete someone else's ID account in my App's on my Mac?

I was looking for a cursor locator, so a friend of mine sent me a link to buy PinPoint via my App's store, but when I clicked on his link, it wanted the password to his email address. Whatever I tried, I couldn't get rid of it. So I purchased PinPoint on my second computer, but my main computer (Mac Pro), there's a PinPoint update, so when I click on Update, it wants my friends password.
How do I get rid of his email address and see mine? I logged out and back into my account, but that didn't help.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Back up all data.
In the Finder, select Go ▹ Go to Folder from the menu bar, copy the text on the line below into the box that opens, and press return:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.storeagent.plist
A Finder window may open with an item selected. If it does, move the selected item to the Trash. Log out and log back in. Test. You'll have to re-enter your Apple ID and App Store settings.

  • How do I delete someone else's iCloud account?

    We bought the iPad (2012) and my partner didn't like it so she gave it to me. She had already signed into and set up the iCloud, however, before handing it over and I am trying to figure out how to delete her iCloud account from the iPad. Every time I use it to send mail, it automatically sends from under her account, even though I am using it under my gmail account. This has confounded me to no end. I do consider myself pretty computer savvy, but this is my first rodeo with an Apple product and I refuse to go back to a PC ever again. Therefore, I am putting my question out there for Apple techies to give me guidance as I am perplexed and confuddled and need some answers ASAP.
    I await any and appreciate all replies.

  • How to delete someone else's iCloud account on your iPhone without password?

    I purchased my old iPhone 4 off a friend when I lost my phone at the time. All of my music and photos on that phone were under her iCloud account.
    Now that I have just got a new iPhone 6, when I backed up all of my photos, music etc. onto iTunes and synced up my new phone, it transferred her iCloud account to my new phone. She does not remember her password, and it will not let me delete this account without the password. I have spent hours searching the internet for a solution but have had no luck. Surely someone else has had this happen to them in the past.
    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

    Hello megneth,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    In order to get an iCloud account signed out of your iPhone, you will need to have the previous owner sign out with their Apple ID login information.  If they do not remember their Apple ID password, then they can reset it by following the directions in the article below.

  • How do I take someone else's iTunes account off my computer

    I helped my brother with his iphone a few weeks ago and he authorized my computer for his account so we could change some of his songs and what not but it synced his apps to my computer, ive deleted them and moved on cause I didnt have an iphone. Well I'm getting an iphone soon so I downloaded some apps for my and now a number has popped up next to apps tab which im told means theres updates but it says there are no updates for my account.
    So how can I unlink his account from my computer so that goes away? it just really bugs me

    You can deauthorize your computer of rhis account by logging into th eiTUnes store with his account/password.
    Go to menu Store -> Deauthorize computer.
    but it synced his apps to my computer, ive deleted them
    How did you delete them? Thru iTunes?
    If not, select the Apps on the left side of iTunes, select all the Apps then delete them.

    How do I replace someone else's Mac ID with my own?
    Bought iPhone second hand on TradeMe.
    Previous owner re-set the phone but his ICloud account stayed on now my phone. He uses his AppleID on his new iPhone now and, understandably, does not want to give me his password. Any ideas?? Please.
    This issue is blocking my access to iTunes and any other file from my home computer. It keeps on telling me that I have to autorise my computer to pass on files, yet, it seems, for all this to happen, I need to get logged in through the phone's Apple ID. This of course is different to my one on my computer - and I have no password for it.
    This phone is not stolen!! I payed still a fair bit for it. Am still in contact with the previous owner. He doesn't know how to fix the problem either.
    Would appreciate any suggestion ????
    Thanks

    Settings>general>resets>erase all content and settings.
    That will put it back to its out of the box state. Set it up with your own apple Id.

    How do I find someone else's phone with mine?

    Using the app, Find My iPhone, which you can download for free from the itunes app store, you can log into another person's icloud account with their ID and password and then try to track/find the device.

    How can I find someone else iPhone

    If there is no service on the phone, then there is no way to track it. If it had service and Find My iPhone is activated, then it could be tracked, if it has an active internet connection. So are you trying to find him, the phone, or both?

  • Prevent user from deleting someone else data

    I have a table
    create table T(
    infoID number primary key,
    info varchar2(4000),
    user varchar2(1)
    and users a,b,c with object priveleges on table T.
    What is the best way to prevent user from deleting someone else data?
    1. Create a view for each user to interacat with ( where user='a') and revoke privileges from table T.
    2. Use procedures or trigers to catch a bad user.
    3. ?

    Leo is certainly correct that VPD will solve the issue you have described. however another option also exists without the need to create a separate view for each user (as you described) or the use of VPD, the option would be to do something like the following.
    create user ownera identified by ownera;
    create user usera identified by usera;
    create user userb identified by userb;
    create user userc identified by userc;
    grant connect, resource to ownera;
    grant create view to ownera;
    grant connect to usera, userb, userc;
    conn ownera/ownera
    create table mytable ( id number primary key,
    userid varchar2(8) not null, mod_date date not null, text varchar2 (100));
    create sequence mytable_seq;
    create or replace trigger biu_mytable_trg
    before insert or update on mytable
    for each row
    begin
         select mytable_seq.nextval into :new.id from dual;
         :new.userid := user;
         :new.mod_date := sysdate;
    end;
    create or replace view v_mytable as
    select * from mytable where userid=user;
    grant select, insert, update, delete on v_mytable to usera, userb, userc;
    try inserting and selecting as the various userX users.
    Good luck.

  • How do I update apps that are linked to someone else's apple account?

    Hi,
    I'm having trouble updating previously installed apps as they were installed using someone else's apple account. I have since changed the account settings to my own apple account, but anything that was put on before the changes can't be updated as it asks for the old apple I.D. and password.
    Please help
    Thanks
