How do you update an apps on iPad when it says "this update is for an app downloaded with a different Apple ID. I have tried both mine and my husbands ID and it still won't work?

I have tried to update an apps on my mini iPad but it says this update is for an app downloaded with a diffrent Apple ID. Sign in with that Apple ID and try again. I have tried both mine and my husbands ID and it still does not work.

We'll you can either do as Niel suggested, delete it and download it again with one of the two Apple ID's, or if you want to be sure that one of the two you actually bought the app, look in the purchased tab of the App Store when you are signed into your ID and see if the app shows up in there and if not, then sign into your husband's ID and see if the app shows up with his ID.
After you you figure out who actually bought the app, use that ID to update it. If it still doesn't work, try signing out of that ID, restart the iPad, sign in again and try to update again.

HT3576 How do you fix the problem that happens when if I open my notification for an app, it disappears on the Notification Center?

I was updating an app on my iPad (seeds pro), and when it was fully updated, I opened it. I tried to use a feature on it, but it said I need push notifications enabled. I was looking around in the notification part of the settings app, and when I go back to the specified app, it still didn't let me use the feature. But the additional thing is that now, when I open a notification for ANY app, or at least open the app, it disappears from the Notification Center. I really need help in fixing this bug or problem or whatever it is.

It didn't work like that before. And I know it wasn't a new feature in the iOS7 update, I've never had my notifications deleted from the Notification Center until a week ago. Before that, I kept my notifications in the Notification Center.

Hi julia151,
I would first use this article to make sure any extra Apple IDs were not accidentally created when signing up for one of Apple's services:
Apple ID: Finding your Apple ID

If you can't locate one, try using this article to delete and redownload your app:

After updating Firefox yesterday I have been unable to access the internet. I have tried the Norton 360 fix several times, but it still doesn't work. How can I get Firefox working again?

So, I have created my home sharing from my base computer to my laptop. On my lap top I see the tab for home sharing but it will not let me connect to my computer to share my music over. I have done everything iTunes has told me to but it still won't work.

I got some more info that may help.
I put a cd on my laptop, and was able to share it to my computer... So the problem is only from my computer to my laptop. I tried the firewall thing and it did not help. I read the rest of the trouble shooting page, and nothing else applies. iTunes is an execption and already was. I can not think of anything else being my problem. Do you think I should re-install iTunes or would that be a waste of time? At this point I am about to just call Apple for some help because I am getting to stressed over this.
Thanks

Error: This update is for an app downloaded with a different Apple ID. Sign in with that Apple ID and try again.

I am trying to update iphoto but I have been receiving the error message "This update is for an app downloaded with a different Apple ID. Sign in with that Apple ID and try again." All other IDs I have had NO LONGER work or aren't activated. I deleted the current verison of iphoto, but it still won't work, so now I have no iphoto whatsoever...any ideas? my current ID is my ONLY ID I have.

Apple Closed all other accounts and the logins DO NOT WORK!
Apple would only have closed an account if you called Apple and formally requested that be done. Otherwise, the account is still there.
I was able to delete my old apps and redownload them onto my computer which switch the Apple ID it was under, but I am not having the same luck with iPhoto.
Those would have been free apps that you "bought" again using your new Apple ID. iPhoto is a paid app and Apple will not transfer it to a different Apple ID.

Try a reset, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.

Did you install it yourself are somebody else for you?
If you installed them yourself, but do not remember which AppleID you used, try all AppleIDs you might have used in turn.
If somene else set up your Mac for you, ask the person to reinstall it. If you bought the mac second hand, the previous owner needs to contact Apple to transfer the iLife apps. If that is not possible, delete the apps that you cannot update and buy them using your AppleID.

App Store error: "This update is for an app downloaded with a different apple id"

When trying to update PopClip, I get the following two errors:
"This update is for an app downloaded with a different Apple ID. Sign in with that Apple ID and try again"
After clicking OK, I receive the next error:
"There was an error in the App Store. Please try again later. (100)"
This app was not downloaded using a different Apple ID. I have been able to update other apps successfully.
Any ideas?

How do i update applications that were downloaded with a different apple id

how do i update applications that were downloaded with a different apple id

You can't. The iLife apps get tied in with not only the Apple ID, but the Mac that they were accepted on.The Mac App Store will always remeber that the iLife apps have been accepted once before already on this Mac and will only offer to update them with the Apple ID into whose account they were accepted.

TS4337 How do you stop the incessant error message when calendar can't update or delete an event on my Exchange, even though I have hit every option and even deleted the exchange and the calendars. I'm ready to never use the computer again with the const

Calendar is incessantly posting error messages that it cannot change or delete an event on my Exchange calendar. I have tried the "revert to server, try again, and ignore" more times than I can count. I even deleted the exchange from my connection and reinstalled without help. Even when I have deleted the Exchange, it continues to have this error window every 60 seconds. I am ready to stop using the computer just for the stress of it. Any suggestions or help before this screen winds up with a shoe in it?

To prevent Firefox from displaying form autocomplete suggestions, you can turn off that feature using the about:config page.
In the address bar, type or paste '''about:config''' and tap the Enter/Return key.
I suggest bookmarking this for easier future access.
In the search box, type or paste '''formf''' and tap the Enter/Return key.
Scroll down to '''browser.formfill.enable''' and tap the Toggle button to switch it from true to false.
That's it. Does it work on Facebook?
''The about:config preferences editor in the mobile version is similar in principle to the desktop version but many of the preferences available on the desktop version have no effect in mobile. This one I only tested on one site, but it seems to work.''

My iPod 4 brand new charger won't show the charging sign and won't connect to a computer. I have went to the Apple Store and bought the charger but it still won't work. What do I do?

I recently got a brand new charger from my local Apple Store. When I got home and plugged it into my charger on my computer nothing happened. It chargesbut it doesn't show the charging sign or make the sound that says its charging. It takes my iPod touch at least 4-5 hours to fully charge. I would just like some tips on what to do. I have tried resetting my iPod and I've tried just getting a new charger, but nothing works. If anyone knows anything that might help I will very much appreciate it. Thank you

Not Charge

How do you remove the "purchased" items in the "not on this iPhone" tab in the app store icon?

I want to permanently remove old deleted apps from the "purchased" list in the update section of the app store icon on my iPhone. These are apps that I tried and didn't like or didn't work or were useless or whatever. There does not seem to be any logical reason to keep a record or history of them around since they would not have been deleted if I still wanted them. This is a waste of resources on the iPhone, iTunes and my efforts.

"I want to permanently remove old deleted apps from the "purchased" list in the update section of the app store icon on my iPhone."
You cannot.
"There does not seem to be any logical reason to keep a record or history of them around since they would not have been deleted if I still wanted them." it does not need to be logical to you for it to make sense.
It is a history of ALL purchases.
People would be complaining that they mistakenly deleted it and now could never get their app back. The entire point is to have access to any and all past purchases.
Maybe when the final product is released you will get your wish.

"This update is for an app downloaded with a different Apple ID. Sign in with that Apple ID and try again." But i've only ever had one apple i.d ever .... HELP!

I bought this computer brand new from the Apple Store and when i brought it home a few apps needed to be updated. when i tried it kept telling me that another Apple I.d was used. Ive only had one Apple I.d EVER.

What are the apps that needed updating? What app is asking for a different Apple ID?
SInce it's new, I would return it. It's starting to sound used.
BTW, your MBP isn't running on iOS 7.

HT4623 I upgraded my ipad to ios 7 and it's one requesting a passcode have no idea what it is because I never had a passcode. Tried to connect to iTunes on my mac but still won't work

I upgraded my ipad to ios 7 and now it's asking for a passcode. Have no idea what to enter because I never needed a passcode. Connected it to iTunes on my mac but still doesn't work

Hi Lmprettyman,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
This article has more information on passcode lock and how to return your iPod to working order:
iOS: Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212
If you have never synced your device with iTunes, or you do not have access to a computer
If you see one of following alerts, you need to erase the device:
"iTunes could not connect to the [device] because it is locked with a passcode. You must enter your passcode on the [device] before it can be used with iTunes."
"You haven't chosen to have [device] trust this computer"
If you have Find My iPhone enabled, you can use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
Alternatively, place the device in recovery mode and restore it to erase the device:
Disconnect the USB cable from the device, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off the device: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for the device to shut down.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to the device. The device should turn on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the Connect to iTunes screen.
iTunes will alert you that it has detected a device in recovery mode. Click OK, and then restore the device.
All the best,
Jeremy
