How do I get rid of my sons apple ID when trying to update apps

My Apple ID is in the system/Itunes/App Store/Apple ID section and I've tried signing out, but when I go back to my app store and try to update apps, it still has his apple ID there..

So tap "Cancel" when his ID pops up and then apps your apps that have updates should prompt you to enter your Apple ID and password.

    how do i get rid of my first apple id when i bought the phone

    I don't think this is the easiest way. Have you concidered creating a new account and just... ignoring the last one? If this idea is not to your liking, just simply ring up apple. From what I know, you cannot cancel and account, but, I think that apple might be able to.

  • I get an unknown error on my iPad2 when trying to update apps.

    I also get unable to connect when I try to re-sign into app store in the Settings. Device is running 5.1 and has been rebooted a few times to no avail.
    It has been going on for a few days now. I can connect to the internet on the device as well as play games that need the internet. I can download updates in iTunes on my PC.
    Any ideas? I'm a little at my wits end. I have rebooted, hard rebooted, and signed out of the App store on the iPad (but can't sign back in).

    Already done. It didn't fix anything.
    I logged out of my account on the iPad itself and when I try to relog back in it gives me the "Cannot connect."
    I plugged it into the computer running iTunes and synced it. Checked for updates on the OS and it was current. I then checked for updated apps in iTunes on the PC, entered the same password I was entering on the iPad, and it accepted it and downloaded all updates.
    After syncing I went to the settings on my iPad and I was currently logged into the app store in Settings (presumably due to syncing).  I still get the Unknown error when trying to buy something in the app store.
    So I go back to Settings, log out of my account, try to log back in and it says it can't connect again. I try putting in an incorrect password and it recognizes it as incorrect and gives me an "Incorrect password" error instead of the "Cannot connect."
    Super aggravating.

  • HT5622 How do you get rid of an old Apple ID that hasn't been used in a while in which you no longer remember the password and the email account no longer exists?

    How do you get rid of an old Apple ID that hasn't been used in a while in which you no longer remember the password and the email account it's tied to no longer exists?

    The password will not be sent to you, because Apple does not know it. They will send a link where you can reset the password. It will be sent to your Rescue email address, not the iCloud email address. If you don't have one contact Apple Account Security and they can reset it for you: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699

    I no longer have access to the email address used as my Apple ID and when I choose to answer security questions, my DOB had to have been originally entered incorrectly because it keeps failing.  How do I get rid of my old Apple ID and create a new one?

    Contact Apple, either through the link in that article or by phoning them. Alternatively, just create a new Apple ID; previous iTunes Store purchases won't be transferred to it.

    On My Mac Pro Getting an unknown error message when trying to update apps To Perchase Mountain Lion

    Try signing out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again and see if that works for you.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap your ID and sign out.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Sign in again -Settings>Store>Apple ID - sign in.
    If that doesn't work either, reset your iPad and see if that helps.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

  • Getting "an unknown error has occurred" when trying to update apps or download books

    Try logging out of your account on the iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if it then works.
    If that doesn't solve it then what has worked for some people is going into Settings > General > Date & Time and change the date to a few months in the future and then re-trying

  • How do i get rid of an old apple id from an iphone upon activation IOS 7

    This phone was sold to me by a friend and it had and account upon activation, my freind doesn't know the information how do I get rid of the account so I can use the phone?? Please I need to know I lost my other phone and I am trying to use this one.

    The "friend" will have to log in to his or her Apple ID and disable Find my iPhone. Or unlink by logging in to iCloud using the correct Apple ID and password and unlinking the phone. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5661 for what your friend has to do before you can use the phone.
    I am truly amazed that a friend would sell you a phone without wiping out its contents, which must contain a lot of sensitive personal information. And to wipe it clean the friend would have had to disable Find my iPhone.
    Activation Lock is Apple's antitheft feature, that prevents a stolen iPhone from ever being used again. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818 for how it works.

  • How can I get rid of the sign in prompt when I use google?

    I just upgraded firefox. I am searching in google and every time I put in a search or turn a page I get a sign-in box asking for my goole password. How can I get rid of this, it is a nuisance.

    Do you use any add-ons to enhance your privacy on Google? To make sure those also are the latest versions, try updating your extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, above the list, click the "gear" button and "Check for Updates".
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
    Also, I believe Google requires third party cookies. This support article has the steps for making sure you are accepting website cookies: [[Websites say cookies are blocked - Unblock them]].
